Chapter 1993 - medicine of Regret (first update)
Hello, Mr. Major General
âDad â ? !â
â... I swear!â
Gu Nianzhi and Xiao Ye cried out almost at the same time.
At the same time, Huo Shaoheng, who was about to walk into the living room, stopped in his tracks.
He did not continue walking forward. Instead, he quietly took a step back and stood at the back of the corridor from the dining room to the living room.
âDad! Why are you talking like that? !âAlthough Gu Nianzhi would definitely protect Lu Jin, she was still shocked to hear Lu Jin say something like that.
Was his interpersonal disorder getting worse?
Or did something else happen last night that she did not know about?
Xiao Ye had already raised his weak right arm, he looked in Gu Nianzhiâs direction and said, âI swear! âI will never steal any of Miss Gu Nianzhiâs men, be it in the past, the present, or the future. I, Xiao Ye, will never take a step closer to any man who has anything to do with Miss Gu Nianzhi!â
Gu Nianzhi was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in. However, when she looked at Lu Jin beside her, who had a nervous expression on his face, she felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart.
This person, who did not care about the price of face, was not afraid of ridicule and awkwardness, and only cared about her, truly loved her like her life.
This kind of relationship was something that only her parents could do.
Looking at it from another angle, she was no longer embarrassed.
Gu Nianzhi gently held onto Lu Jinâs arm and nodded at him. She smiled and said, âDad, you donât have to do this. Are you looking down on your daughterâs charm by doing this?â
âOf course not.âLu Jin denied it. âYouâre my girl. Youâre the smartest and most beautiful girl in the world.â
âThatâs right. Iâm the smartest and most beautiful girl in the world. Why wouldnât I Like My Man?âGu Nianzhi narrowed her eyes and smiled.
âBut what if...âLu Jin was a scientist. He preferred to exhaust all possibilities and did not want to leave any loose ends. He said with mixed feelings,â... some men will like the new and dislike the old.â
Gu Nianzhi chuckled and said with a smile, âIf that man likes the new and hates the old and is snatched away by someone else, then itâs because I have poor taste in men.â
âAnd you should thank the woman who snatched him away... at least she helped me take away the trash, so that I wonât spend the rest of my life living with trash without realizing it and think Iâve picked up a treasure.â
Lu Jin frowned and thought for a moment. âThat makes sense.â
âThatâs more like it!âGu Nianzhi patted Lu Jinâs shoulder in satisfaction. âI know you want to prepare for the future and try to nip all possible mishaps in the bud.â
âBut when it comes to relationships, thereâs no need to prepare for the future.âGu Nianzhi said as her gaze swept over the corridor leading to the restaurant.
Even though she couldnât see it, Gu Nianzhi knew that Huo Shaoheng was definitely standing in the shadows.
It would be fine if he didnât come out, but if he did, Xiao Ye and general Xiao would have nowhere to hide.
âWhy doesnât a relationship need to plan ahead?âLu Jin couldnât understand.
A scientistâs mind couldnât work in the face of a relationship.
The smile on Gu Nianzhiâs face grew wider. Under the crystal lamp in the living room, her face seemed to glow. Her face was so beautiful that it couldnât be stared at.
Thinking back to everything that had happened along the way with Huo Shaoheng, Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath and said, âBecause relationships can not be planned or controlled. I donât want to restrict the other party...â
Her eyes rolled around. âSimilarly, I donât want the other party to restrict me. Even if weâre together, it doesnât mean weâre bound by the other party.â
âWeâre independent individuals. We donât exist according to the other party.â
âSo if someone tries to snatch something from me, she wonât be snatching it from me.â
âSince itâs not mine, then whether she steals or steals, or swindles or swindles, it has nothing to do with me.â
âYou canât threaten sister Xiao Ye with something that doesnât belong to me.â
Lu Jin understood her logic and nodded vigorously. âWell said! Thatâs right! My Lady is so good. There are plenty of people who like my lady! How few are there...â
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips. âYoung master he is not suitable. Please donât think about it anymore.â
Lu Jinâs words made Gu Nianzhi feel even more guilty. She knew that he was her half-brother and did not take it seriously. Gu Nianzhi also admired Lu Jinâs straightforwardness.
General Xiao was even more ashamed by Gu Nianzhiâs words.
He looked Gu Nianzhi in the eye again and sized her up carefully. He sighed in his heart.
He had to admit that Gu Nianzhi was more suitable for Huo Shaoheng than his daughter, Xiao Ye.
Putting everything else aside, her free and easy bearing and quick-witted improvisation were better than most of the daughters of wealthy families.
Apart from being able to fight, her own daughter was inferior to Gu Nianzhi in every other aspect. Even her beautiful looks, which she used to be proud of, now seemed to be on par with Gu Nianzhi.
As for her family background, Huo Shaoheng did not even care about the daughter of the Prime Minister, let alone the daughter of a lieutenant general like him.
Xiao Ye was also embarrassed by Gu Nianzhiâs words.
She pursed her lips and looked at Gu Nianzhi with a complicated expression. She said softly, âNianzhi, although youâre much younger than me, youâre much more mature in love than I am.â
Gu Nianzhiâs heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Xiao Ye really... had extraordinary feelings for Huo Shaoheng?
Her father wasnât making things up out of thin air?
If that was true, then she had really wronged Lu Jin just now.
Gu Nianzhi blinked. Her fine, Thick Black eyelashes fluttered in the air like butterfly wings.
â... itâs not illegal to like someone, but this kind of liking canât compare to how much I love myself.âXiao Ye was going all out. She knew that it was useless to hide in front of smart people like Gu Nianzhi and Lu Jin, it would only make the other party feel bad for her.
For smart people, the most important quality was honesty.
And it was only after she knew that she could fully recover that she realized that what she really cared about was not a vague crush on a man, but her own integrity.
Lu Jin gave a look of âI knew it.âHe chuckled and said, âThen can you really guarantee that if I let you recover, you wonât be too greedy?â
Xiao Ye didnât answer directly. Instead, she said in a deep voice, âWhen I was intact, I didnât do anything. Later, I was beaten until I was disabled, and then I couldnât control myself.â
When a person was in pain, they were more fragile than usual, and they would have many thoughts.
âI know this is wrong, and I havenât really thought about doing anything. Your words only let me understand my own thoughts.â
She only wanted to return to her job. She realized that her desire for work was far greater than being married to a man.
Lu Jin nodded. âBut Iâll still say it this way. If one day you regret it, I have the medicine of regret here. If you take it, I guarantee that youâll recover to your current state.â
Xiao Ye:â...â
Lu Yuan had been standing behind Lu Jin with a half-smile the whole time. When he saw that Lu Jin was almost about to agree to perform the surgery with a few words from someone else.., he then said, âGeneral Xiao, Miss Xiao Ye, donât be anxious. The surgery is such a big deal. Donât you want to discuss it with President Chen Before You Come Back?â
âPresident Chen has always been biased against Professor Lu. If the surgery goes wrong, you wonât blame Professor Lu, but it might be President Chen.â
General Xiao and Xiao Ye understood Lu Yuanâs hidden meaning.
Both of them blushed.
General Xiao said seriously, âI know. Old Chen went too far yesterday. Iâll go back and have a good talk with her today.â
Xiao ye nodded vigorously. âMy mother was too anxious about my injury. If she knew...â
Lu Yuan interrupted her and said gently, âMiss Xiao Ye, even if professor Lu canât perform the surgery on you, your mother still owes professor Lu and Nianzhi an apology.â
âThatâs not the same thing. Are you going to stop apologizing if you donât perform the surgery?â
Xiao ye lowered her head and said in a low voice, âMy mother is a very proud person, and I will try my best to convince her. However, as her daughter, I should apologize to Professor Lu and Miss Gu Nianzhi on behalf of my mother.â
Gu Nianzhi felt very regretful. She had once liked Xiao Ye, a beautiful and capable young lady, so much that she had been shot ten times in a row to protect her..
Gu Nianzhiâs heart softened at the thought of Xiao Yeâs pain.
âPresident Chen, you can just apologize to my father. I accept Miss Xiao Yeâs apology,âGu Nianzhi said politely.
From sister Xiao Ye to Miss Xiao Ye, they were close and distant.
Xiao Ye looked at her and calmed down.
âThank you, Miss Gu, for giving me this opportunity.âXiao Ye looked up at her and said stubbornly, âEven if the surgery doesnât succeed, I Wonât blame anyone. But as long as thereâs a glimmer of hope, I wonât give up.â
