hard to let go

Chapter 54

Leng Xi stared at him blankly, in a dilemma for a while.Gao Ziqun looked deeply into her eyes, and there was a deep friendship in his eyes.He caressed her stiff fingers, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and slowly held her ring finger. When the ring was just pushed in by one centimeter, Leng Xi was startled by the cold touch.

She withdrew her hand almost in a panic, the ring fell to the ground in an instant, and rolled away in an instant with a soft sound.

"I—" She opened her mouth and found that she couldn't say a word.

The room suddenly fell into depression again.

For a long while, Gao Ziqun looked at her, his eyes flashing with waves.Leng Xi stood there motionless, waiting for him to speak first.After Gao Ziqun pondered slightly, "It seems that you still don't agree?"

Leng Xi pursed her lips, her eyes turned to the roses on the table, which she brought back last week, and they had been growing for more than a week.

At that moment, she thought that Gao Ziqun would argue with her angrily, or slam the door and leave.But neither.He just sat quietly on the sofa.That face was dark, he lowered his head, his eyes fell on the shoes on his feet.After he finished talking about the slippers that day, Leng Xi brought a new pair of dark blue ones when he came back the next day.Her own is light blue, while her daughter's is light pink.Whenever he opened the shoe cabinet and saw three pairs of slippers leaning together, he always felt a sense of happiness, and the family was finally together.

But now it seems that those his wishful thinking.He closed his eyes and slowly leaned his head back on the sofa.

Leng Xi walked over slowly, "Don't do this."

Gao Ziqun's throat moved, and he tilted his head slightly, "Then what do you think I should do? I was rejected by you." His voice was hoarse and deep.

Leng Xi was at a loss for words, and the ring rolled under the sofa. She was about to bend down when Gao Ziqun said coldly, "You picked it up to accept my marriage proposal?"

Leng Xi was taken aback for a moment, and stood there firmly.

Gao Ziqun tugged at his neckline, "You won't accept it, so what's the use of picking it up?" He said coolly.

Leng Xi took a breath, knowing that he was angry, "I just rejected you. How did you treat me before? How many times did I suffer more than you do now?" She could say it calmly.

Gao Ziqun swallowed his throat, "Don't worry, I'm not angry with you. I just feel bad for being rejected." He said lightly.

The phone rang just in time to break the awkward atmosphere.Gao Ziqun leaned over to pick up the phone, and he didn't know what was said on the other end, his face gradually darkened and darkened.

"What's wrong?" Leng Xi asked nervously, "Is something wrong?"

It was the first time for Gao Ziqun to see her so nervous about him, but he might have misunderstood her, and Leng Xi was worried about Xixi. "It's Wen Jun, I'm afraid of blood draw, Wen Shu can't call me."

Leng Xi frowned slightly.

"That child is very dependent on you." She said lightly. As a mother, she also felt very sorry that the child had such a disease.

"Don't think about it." He breathed out, "I owe him. I didn't tell you that Wen Jun's father died in a car accident because of me. Wen Shu couldn't bear the blow at that time, and his mood fluctuated too much, so Wen Jun has been in poor health since birth."

Leng Xi was silent, "Do you want to go see him now?"

Gao Ziqun looked at her with a smile on his lips, "No. I can see Wen Shu's father tomorrow on his birthday." He paused, "You can go with me tomorrow."

Leng Xi frowned, "What am I going to do, I'm not familiar with him."

"Are you going to reject me twice in one night?" Gao Ziqun said sternly, "The elders of both families are very upset about the matter between me and Wen Shu. Uncle Wen's intention made me and Wen Shu simply—" He He also didn't want to hide it from Leng Xi.

"It's actually quite good to do a fake show." Leng Xi continued.

Gao Ziqun looked at her, "You are cruel." He said word by word, "Tomorrow night, I will pick you up from the store. It's getting late, go to bed early."

"Gao Ziqun—" Leng Xi called out, but Gao Ziqun ignored her and went to the bathroom.

Leng Xi'an lay quietly on the bed, while Gao Ziqun went back to the room and lay down beside him.Gao Ziqun sleeps well and doesn't snore.But Leng Xi is annoying him tonight, how can he be so calm.

In the middle of the night, Leng Xi came to the living room with her coat on, and squatted down to look for it by the wall lamp of the TV cabinet.When she heard the sound of the ring rolling, Lengxi moved away from the sofa and stared at the ground intently.

"You're looking for a ring." A voice suddenly came to mind in the quiet living room, and Leng Xi subconsciously took a breath.Gao Ziqun stood there silently for a moment.Under the dim light, he stared straight at her with the corners of his mouth in his mouth.There was a smile in those brows and eyes.

The moment Leng Xi was caught, she was slightly embarrassed, "I can't afford to lose such an expensive thing. But I haven't found it yet."

With a "pop", Gao Ziqun turned on the wall lamp in the center of the living room, filling the room with brilliance.

Leng Xi felt a little dazzled for a moment.

Gao Ziqun walked to her step by step, still staring at her from a few meters away.

Leng Xi coughed lightly, "You should find it yourself. I'll go back to sleep first."

Gao Ziqun grabbed her hand, and the two of them sat down on the sofa, his long arm was stretched out to restrain her. "Do you regret it?"

Leng Xi raised his hand and pushed him, "I told you, I'm afraid of losing it."

Gao Ziqun chuckled, "I found that you really like to lie." He looked into her eyes blankly, "I picked it up a long time ago. Since you value it so much, I'll bring it to you." He said quickly Put the ring on her ring finger.

Leng Xi only felt that her hand weighed a thousand catties, and she hurriedly wanted to take it off.

"Don't pick it off." Gao Ziqun said sternly, "It was originally yours." He hugged her body, his breath smelled from her body, "When your father comes back, I will apologize to him."

Since it is a problem left by him, then he will personally obtain Leng's father's understanding.

Leng Xi stared into the distance with heavy eyes, and sighed silently in his heart.

The next day when she went to the flower shop, Xiaoyou saw the ring on her hand with sharp eyes, "Miss Xiaoxi, congratulations. This ring is so beautiful, how big is this diamond?" Xiaoyou clicked his tongue. "Mr. Gao is so romantic."

Leng Xi breathed out suddenly, "Okay, it's time to send flowers later." She didn't sleep well last night.As Gao Ziqun said, "Don't take it off once you put it on."

At the beginning, I got used to it, and gradually I didn't feel much more.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Gao Ziqun drove to the flower shop and saw Leng Xi arranging flowers by himself, "Why are you alone?"

"I asked Xiaoyou to leave work early, and she is going to her hometown to celebrate the New Year."

"Then you will be alone for the rest of the day?"

"Well. Rest in two days."

Gao Ziqun's eyes fell on the bouquet she had tied up in her hand, "It's very pretty."

Leng Xi tidied up and stood up, "Let's go."

Gao Ziqun looked at her and blinked, "Will you go to someone else's birthday party, can you smile more?"

Leng Xi reluctantly pulled the corner of his mouth, "Gao Ziqun, I don't have to go."

Gao Ziqun sighed helplessly, "Please—" he made a gesture.

Even though Mr. Wen's birthday was low-key, many people came.When Gao Ziqun and Leng Xi came over, the atmosphere suddenly calmed down.How can I say that Gao Ziqun is the nominal son-in-law of the Wen family. Isn't it because he brought his girlfriend here today that he is not giving face to Mr. Wen.

But obviously Gao Ziqun wanted to clarify thoroughly this time, so he planned to bring Leng Xi over early.Leng Xi held his hand all the way, "Gao Ziqun, what's your plan?"

Gao Ziqun glanced at her lightly, "Don't worry, I won't sell you out."

Leng Xi tilted his head, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw Wen Shu standing there quietly.Her hand tightened suddenly, and her eyebrows frowned quickly.Gao Ziqun seemed to sense it, he stretched out his hand to cover the back of her hand and patted lightly, "Don't worry."

When he walked in front of old man Wen, the old man was still chatting and laughing happily, but the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.

"Ziqun is here?" He said in a deep voice, his gaze slightly passing over Leng Xi. "Who is this?"

"Second uncle, this is Xixi's mother, my fiancee." Gao Ziqun said clearly.He respectfully offered his gift.

Mr. Wen didn't expect him to be so direct, and the people on the side also felt the subtlety in it, haha, and left with an excuse.Wen Shu stepped forward slowly, "Dad, let's start."

Old Man Wen glanced at her coldly, "You can figure it out."

Wen Shu pursed his lips slightly towards Gao Ziqun, but did not look at Leng Xi.Leng Xi could see that the old man and Wen Shu were not happy.She stood beside Gao Ziqun with a blank face and no expression. All of this has nothing to do with her.

After the dinner, Leng Xi went to the bathroom.Gao Ziqun was just pulled over by a middle-aged man, who seemed very familiar.She looked at the time, guessing that Gao Ziqun would come to him in a while.

She walked into the garden alone.I have to say that this garden is beautifully built, with a long stone step and a fountain on the right, with light flowing water.

Lengxi sat on a wooden chair beside her, and a thick elm tree blocked her front, so she was in the dark.Although it's a bit cold outside, it's also a pleasure to look at the bright night sky.

"Ziqun—" a soft voice suddenly floated to her ears.She couldn't help but shiver.

"Wen Shu, you drank too much." Gao Ziqun's voice was a little impatient.

"I'm very aware of my drinking capacity." Wen Shu emphasized heavily, "Now you are completely breaking off with me, and you don't want to have any affection at all, right?"

Leng Xi slightly raised her head to look at the quiet moon, she just felt that this scene was too bloody.She shrank her legs slightly, and shrank her whole body at the end of the wooden chair.

"Wen Shu, we've known each other for so many years, don't you understand me? Leng Xi and I have experienced so much, I don't want to waste our time anymore." After all, he treats Wen Shu differently.

Wen Shu chuckled, "But what about me? Do you know that I—"

Leng Xi heard her sobbing sadly, and it seemed that she was crying in a mess.Women's tears have always been very lethal to men.

"Over the years, some things have changed, changed, subgroup—maybe I realized too late—"

Gao Ziqun was silent.

Leng Xi pursed her lips, turned her eyes slightly, and happened to see Wen Shu leaning into Gao Ziqun's arms, her shoulders twitching, she was really pitiful.

Gao Ziqun held her arm with both hands. "Wenshu—"

Wen Shu seemed to be desperate, hugging him tightly, "Ziqun, I love you now."

Leng Xi frowned and turned her head slowly. Her right hand was caressing the ring on her ring finger, turning it round and round.
