Chapter 428 Throw it away after use
This question confused Ning Xi.
"I don't know. My head hurts a bit. Don't ask me anymore." After saying that, Ning Xi ignored James.
Seeing Ning Xi closed her eyes, James had no choice but to shut up.
He got in the car and was about to drive to the Wen family's old house.
Ning Xi saw the route and said hurriedly, "Drive to the hospital. In order to take care of grandma and Xingxing, I bought an apartment near the hospital. We can just go there."
"it is good."
When they arrived downstairs at the apartment, Ning Xi firmly refused James's company and went upstairs alone.
However, when she just stepped into the house, the doorbell rang suddenly.
When she opened the door, it was Gu Huaijing standing outside, his eyes were complicated, as if he wanted to penetrate her soul. There was a piercing bitterness in his words.
"You sent me and He Zhaozhi out just to spend your time with Ji Yunxu and have a good time?"
Ning Xi immediately got angry: "What right do you have to say that? It seems like what I do has nothing to do with you. Mind your own business."
She wanted to close the door, but unexpectedly Gu Huaijing was leaning against it. The two were so close that they could feel each other's breath. "I won't leave unless you listen to my explanation."
Ning Xi's body swayed, the alcohol started to rise, and she almost lost her balance. Fortunately, Gu Huaijing supported her in time.
This momentary touch made Ning Xi feel an inexplicable emotion in her heart, but reason quickly brought her back to reality.
"Don't touch me!" She shook off his hand coldly and looked at him with a dazed look, "Shouldn't you be with Xia Qing...Ying?"
Gu Huaijing listened to Ning Xi's unclear words and knew that she was drunk.
He helped Ning Xi turn sideways and closed the door, then half-hugged Ning Xi and sat on the sofa.
I saw Ning Xi's cheeks slightly flushed due to drunkenness, and heard her mumbling voice.
He reached out and gently stroked her face: "So cute..." Looking at those beautiful lips, he gradually moved closer.
The next second, Gu Huaijing was pushed away by Ning Xi unexpectedly.
Ning Xi covered her mouth and hurried to the bathroom, locking the door.
Gu Huaijing anxiously wandered outside the door, fearing that something might happen to her. As time passed, there was no movement inside the door, so he finally decided to break in.
In the bathroom, Ning Xi was lying beside the bathtub, already asleep.
Gu Huaijing couldn't help but smile bitterly. He carefully removed Ning Xi's makeup and washed her face, then gently carried her back to bed.
Ning Xi returned to the past in her dream, the days when she and Gu Huaijing hurt each other.
She saw herself trying to get close to him, but was ruthlessly pushed away. Tears fell silently, and she muttered to herself in her dream, expressing her resentment and reluctance to leave Gu Huaijing.
"You bastard! Even if you drink yourself to death outside, I won't care about you anymore!"
……
Gu Huaijing heard this and felt guilty. Was this a dream about the past?
Seeing the tears in Ning Xi's eyes, he reached out and gently wiped them.
"I'm sorry...I was wrong before..."
Suddenly, Ning Xi raised her hand and punched Gu Huaijing in the face, landing accurately on his face. Gu Huaijing smiled bitterly, this was probably the revenge in her dream.
The next morning, the sun shone through the gap in the curtains onto Ning Xi's face. She woke up suddenly, and found that it was already late, so she got up in a hurry to go to the hospital.
When she found Gu Huaijing in the room, she screamed "rascal" and then wrapped herself tightly in a quilt.
Then, she caught a glimpse of the bruise on Gu Huaijing's face, which was quite large... and immediately stopped what she was doing.
She asked curiously, "What's wrong with your face?"
Gu Huaijing was speechless for a moment, and he said helplessly: "Do you remember what happened last night?"
Ning Xi tried hard to recall, but could only remember fragments.
She awkwardly asked if she had done anything to Gu Huaijing, but Gu Huaijing deliberately teased her and said, "It's a lot, do you want to take responsibility?"
Gu Huaijing slowly moved his body closer to her, their noses almost touching, and he stared at Ning Xi with deep eyes.
At this moment, Ning Xi's heart was pounding, she forgot to breathe, and her face turned red.
She dodged his gaze and turned her head away awkwardly: "No matter who sleeps with whom, we won't suffer any loss."
Suddenly, Gu Huaijing lowered his head, turned her face with both hands, and put his lips close to hers.
Ning Xi was stunned for a moment, her eyes widened, and suddenly, she realized what the two of them were doing.
She quickly pushed Gu Huaijing hard.
"Don't touch me! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." Ning Xi's voice was mixed with warning and panic, and her cheeks were as red as clouds.
Gu Huaijing was pushed away by her, but he did not get angry. He just sat quietly beside the bed. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and he looked at her quietly.
……
"Can you stop staring at me like that? Also, what happened last night?" Ning Xi couldn't help but ask again.
"Last night..." Gu Huaijing said in a deliberately dragging voice.
"Hurry up and tell me, or I'll kick you out."
There was a hint of annoyance in Ning Xi's voice, and she was obviously at a loss about this sudden ambiguity.
Seeing that Ning Xi was really angry, Gu Huaijing raised a faint smile. He knew that she was shy because of the kiss.
So he stopped joking and told the story of last night.
After learning the truth, Ning Xi finally let go of her worries and secretly felt lucky that nothing worse had happened. However, Gu Huaijing's subsequent teasing made her angry again, and she grabbed a pillow and threw it at him.
"Shut up, you."
Gu Huaijing chuckled, stood up and left, leaving behind a sentence: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, I'll go see how the porridge is cooking."
After everyone left, Ning Xi looked up at the ceiling, one hand on the edge of the bed, the other on her forehead, feeling mixed emotions.
"Hey, what's going on all day?"
Soon, the aroma of porridge filled the whole room. Gu Huaijing walked in with a bowl and said gently, "You drank last night, so eat something light today. I specially made shrimp porridge."
Ning Xi didn't say anything and sat down at the dining table.
After breakfast, Ning Xi walked out the door holding her bag in one hand and holding Gu Huaijing in the other.
As soon as she reached the door, she let go of the person, locked the door again, and said something casually.
"Okay, you can get out."
Gu Huaijing looked around and then at Ning Xi.
"Throw it away after use...ah..."
Ning Xi rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.
Gu Huaijing stared at Ning Xi's gradually receding back, an indescribable emotion welling up in his heart. He immediately sent an instruction to his assistant, asking him to buy the apartment opposite Ning Xi.
After that, Gu Huaijing threw himself into his work. Half an hour later, when he was about to announce the end of the meeting, his assistant reminded him that there was still an issue regarding the medical products project in cooperation with Xia Group that had not been communicated.
"Okay, go contact him. We'll have an online meeting in five minutes."
After saying that, Gu Huaijing leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest. After all, he didn't sleep much last night because he took care of Ning Xi.
Five minutes later, the online meeting started again, and Xia Zhenlong's warm greetings surprised Gu Huaijing a little.
At the end of the meeting, Xia Zhenlong invited Gu Huaijing to dinner. Although Gu Huaijing was puzzled by the reason behind his enthusiasm, he still politely agreed, secretly wondering whether it was related to Xia Yingqing.
After the meeting, Gu Huaijing arranged for someone to investigate the background of Xia Yingqing's boyfriend Tang Zheng.
"Boss, and Mrs. Gu... where are you going to place her?" Seeing Gu Huaijing preparing to leave, the assistant reminded him again.
When he thought of that woman, Gu Huaijing couldn't help but rub his forehead with his hand: "Let's put this matter aside for now. I'll tell you when I think it through."
Since she became mentally unstable, Gu Huaijing kept her in the small villa. But for some reason, she said she didn't want to live there at all and insisted on moving out.
Suddenly he thought of the pavilion and the waterside terrace. This villa was located in the suburbs, so she would not be able to disturb Ning Xi's family.
On the other side, Ning Xi had just arrived at the hospital corridor when she suddenly heard the sound of soft sobbing.
Ning Xi walked towards the direction of the crying sound and happened to see Wen Qingqing squatting in the corner of the corridor.
"mom?"
