Chapter 24: Chapter 24

When Gu Jingxi got drunk, he became very troublesome.Lin Qian didn't want others to see him like this, so he could only coax him in a gentle voice so as not to disturb the servants at home, and he didn't try to put him to sleep until midnight.Gu Jingxi slept soundly, but Lin Qian really didn't sleep well, and was completely disturbed by that unexpected kiss.However, the instigator immediately broke into pieces the second after kissing him, and fell into his arms, completely drunk.

Lin Qian didn't rest well, and if he didn't pay attention, he got up late in the morning. When he went downstairs, everyone in the Gu family was already busy. Rong Ma had set breakfast on the dining table, and Gu Shenzhi had already finished eating and was sitting in his seat. I read the newspaper slowly.Seeing Lin Qian going downstairs, Gu Shenzhi put down the newspaper and said:

"You're getting up late, Mr. Wang can't wait, he's already urging you, I'll ask Wang Meng to take you there later."

It stands to reason that the Gu family should have arranged for a convoy to depart from City C to City W to pick up Wang Xiaotong at the hotel where she was engaged. Qian went there alone, and the Wang family sent a car to take the two to the hotel where they got engaged.Lin Qian didn't care about these irrelevant details, and immediately agreed to Mr. Wang's request, as if the one who got engaged was not himself, but an irrelevant outsider.

"Just ask Wang Meng to arrange someone for me from the No. [-] warehouse. He will stay here and go to the hotel with you." Lin Qian shook his head, not agreeing with Gu Shenzhi's arrangement, "The Wang family has its own If you set up a code of conduct, it's not likely to cause any trouble, but Uncle Gu, you, and Gu Jingxi are all at the main house, and I'm afraid Shen Qianhe will take advantage of this opportunity to make a temporary attack today."

"Alright." Gu Shenzhi thought for a while, and felt that what Lin Qian said was reasonable, so he nodded in agreement.According to the rules, they couldn't pick up people with Lin Qian, so they could only go to the hotel where they got engaged in two ways.Wang Meng is now temporarily in charge of the No. [-] warehouse. He is extremely skilled and loyal. Keeping him by his side can indeed ensure the safety of the base camp.

Lin Qian finished his breakfast hastily, and went back to his room to change his clothes. Today was a special day, and he was dressed very formally.When passing by Gu Jingxi's room, Lin Qian couldn't help but take a look—his door was still tightly closed.

Are you up yet?Also, it took me a long time to fall asleep yesterday, I guess I was exhausted.

Lin Qian's gaze softened a little unconsciously. When she was going out, she happened to run into Rong's mother coming back from shopping. This woman who entered Gu's house with Gu Jingxi's biological mother, Li Qiuyan, almost watched Lin Qian and Gu Jingxi grow up. Knowing that Lin Qian was about to After the news of the engagement, I rejoiced for him from the bottom of my heart.

"Unconsciously, Young Master Lin and Eldest Young Master have grown up. It's great. I usually go back to the mansion one more time. Everyone misses you very much." Rong Ma rubbed her hands, speaking incoherently.Lin Qian has been sensible and polite since he was a child, and he is still modest and polite to his servants. Coupled with the fact that his parents died at a young age, Mother Rong has always loved and loved this child.This time I suddenly heard the news that he was going to get engaged, and I was really happy for him from the bottom of my heart, but there was also a hint of reluctance in it.After Lin Qian came back from England, he seldom went back to the main house, and when he came back occasionally, he almost only stayed overnight and left in a hurry. Mother Rong knew that the bird should let him fly freely when he grew up, but she still hoped that he could Check back more often.

"Okay, I'll come back more when I have time." Lin Qian knew that Mama Rong was really happy for her. After staying in the Gu family for so many years, he and his family members have feelings for each other. "The porridge you made for me last time was delicious. You will make me another bowl when I come back."

Rong's mother's expression became confused for a moment: "Master, you see that I am confused... When did I make porridge for you?"

"When I was injured, you cooked porridge for me for a month. There were preserved eggs, lean meat porridge, shrimp and scallop porridge... there are many kinds, did you forget?" Lin Qian was stunned.

Rong's mother patted her thigh: "Oh my young master, I am from the north. Sweet porridge is delicious, but salty porridge can't be made. Only the young master can cook the kind of porridge you mentioned. Mrs. Li is from the south. People, I used to cook at home." She seemed to think of something again, and said to herself, "I just said why the young master came home suddenly last time, and took away nothing but Madam's most precious one. Purple casserole..."

Lin Qian opened his eyes wide and couldn't believe his ears.

Those porridges... are all cooked by Gu Jingxi?

Then why didn't he mention it, keeping himself in the dark all the time?

——Is this the seafood porridge made by Rong Ma?smell good.

A sentence suddenly sounded in his mind, it was the question he asked Gu Jingxi when he drank porridge for the first time that day.Lin Qian was shaken all over, almost sliding down against the door frame, so he could only cover his face with his hands.

It turned out that in the end, it was himself—he refused to trust Gu Jingxi from the very beginning.I don't want to believe that he is kind to me, and I don't want to believe that he has the courage to show a little sincerity. It is he himself who killed the possibilities that he could have had in the damn cradle.

But it's too late now.The invitations have been sent out, the guests from all parties are already on their way to the hotel, and the Wang family has already put on lights and festoons, waiting for the carnival that will start at noon.It was too late, his feelings for Gu Jingxi for so many years, because of being late, he could only be permanently absent.

Rong Ma looked at Lin Qian worriedly, not understanding why this young man, who had always been restrained, suddenly trembled as if he had an emotional breakdown. She stepped forward a little nervously, and asked cautiously:

"Master...you, are you okay?"

"...I'm fine." The driver not far away honked his horn a few times, Lin Qian knew that he had been delayed for too long, and it was time to hurry up and set off.He wiped his face, tried to get out of his emotions, and gave Rong Ma a comforting smile, "I'm just a little bit reluctant, it's okay."

He regained his concentration and strode towards the black commercial vehicle that had been waiting for a long time on the side of the road. The expression on his face had returned to his usual calm expression, as if the momentary loss of control just now was just an illusion of Rong Mama.

The sycamore trees on the side of the road were rustling by the autumn wind, Lin Qian's clothes were flying, and his tall and straight back was like a standing pine tree.

It was almost noon when we arrived at Wang's house, and Mr. Wang was impatient with the wait, so he pushed Lin Qian into Wang Xiaotong's room after a few pleasantries.The second Miss Wang's boudoir is furnished in a simple and elegant manner, without any high-profile objects, but the master's care is everywhere. A pot of lavender Phalaenopsis on the window sill is exuding a faint fragrance.

Lin Qian was caught off guard by Mr. Wang pushing the door in. Before he could speak, he heard the door being locked by the Mr. Wang from the outside with a "click".Mr. Wang was nearly seventy years old, but he was a naughty boy at heart. He smiled and walked away with his hands behind his back outside the door. He thought he was secretly proud of creating some opportunities for his daughter and future son-in-law to be alone.

Lin Qian couldn't open the door, so he could only turn around and say sorry helplessly, while Wang Xiaotong who was sitting in front of the dressing table was already blushing.Second Miss Wang has a handsome appearance, although she is not an alluring beauty, the gentle temperament of a wealthy family is enough to make people feel good about her.

"You, you are here, you came so fast, are you thirsty? I, I will ask someone to pour you a cup of tea?" Wang Xiaotong blushed, and she was always articulate, but this time her words were thrown upside down , as if realizing her panic, she stopped abruptly, her face turning even redder.

"It's okay. I'm sorry I'm late. There was some trouble at home last night." Lin Qian smiled softly and comforted her.After getting along a few times, Lin Qian knew that this girl had a gentle personality and was sincere to him.Lin Qian couldn't help feeling a pain in his heart when he thought that others were sincere to him, but there was another person in his heart.He looked at Wang Xiaotong's blushing and bewildered look, and only hoped that he could slowly compensate her from other places in the future.

"It's okay. It's still early, there's no rush." ​​Wang Xiaotong waved his hands hurriedly, saying it's okay.

"According to the rules, your father and the others have to wait for us to go far before starting from home. We have to hurry up and go." Lin Qian said softly, looked at the closed door, and asked, "Do you have any questions?" Room key? Can you open the door?"

"Yes, yes, my father is like this...don't take it to heart." Wang Xiaotong jumped up from the stool, frantically found the key and opened the door, then turned his head and looked at Lin Qian shyly, "We... go out now?"

"Well, the car is already waiting downstairs." Lin Qian nodded and smiled at her.

The car arranged by the Wang family was already parked downstairs. The driver was tall and thin, with black sunglasses covering most of his face, and he looked indifferent as if he didn't want to talk to anyone. When he saw them getting into the car, he raised his hand to beat him. Hello.

"He is like this, don't mind." Lin Qian sat in the back seat with Wang Xiaotong, and heard Wang Xiaotong whisper.

"It's okay, my family also has a driver, very similar to him." Thinking of Wang Meng, Lin Qian couldn't help but raised the corners of his mouth, and whispered back.

"You two go first! We'll be there later!" Mr. Wang knocked on the window outside the car and grinned.The precious daughter is finally getting married, and she is still a young man he likes very much. The old man feels all right for a while.

"Got it, Dad, you are really long-winded." Wang Xiaotong said angrily, and waved at the old man.

The driver in the front seat didn't say a word, as if the Wang family's big day had nothing to do with him, he started the car expressionlessly.Their black extended Bentley led the way, followed by a long and uniform convoy, heading towards the hotel mightily.

Since the two were not in the same city, the engagement venue was set at a five-star hotel between W City and C City.Mr. Wang was so proud that he booked out the entire hotel in this expensive hotel, making up his mind to let his precious daughter engage in a wedding ceremony in a splendid manner.

The hotel was a little far from W City, Lin Qian didn't sleep well the night before, and got up early in the morning, so he couldn't help but feel sleepy.But Wang Xiaotong sat beside him in an orderly manner, so he couldn't doze off too obviously, so he could only doze off with his eyes slightly closed.

After an unknown amount of time, the car suddenly tilted, and Wang Xiaotong lost his seat and bumped into Lin Qian, waking him up suddenly.

"Hey...it's okay, there was someone who suddenly changed lanes in front just now." Wang Xiaotong quickly moved away from him, seeing that Lin Qian was still a little dazed because he just woke up, he couldn't help smiling, and reached out to touch Lin Qian shyly. His cheek, "Are you sleepy? You sleep again..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw a sharp look in Lin Qian's eyes!In the next second, Lin Qian had her hands cut behind her back, and a gleaming dagger was pressed against her neck.

"You're not Wang Xiaotong, who are you?" Lin Qian asked coldly.
