?
740 I donât think you will lose _1
He turned around to escape the room.
âStop there.â
The womanâs short words stopped him in his tracks.
Gu nanzhiâs back was facing her, the panic on her face nowhere to be hidden.
Ning Qing stared at his back. you just said that youâre betting on your position in the Gu family.
âI didnât say anything. You heard me wrong.â Gu nanzhi interrupted.
Ning Qing didnât believe her at all. Gu nanzhi, youâd better tell me the truth.
The manâs back stiffened.
Her nerves tensed up. did you exchange your position in the Gu family for this competition with those people? â
Gu nanzhi could tell that her voice was trembling.
He was so nervous that he held the pen in his hand and firmly denied it.
âTell me the truth!â
âNo!â
The footsteps behind him were hurried, and then he was pulled by a strong force. He turned around, and his collar was tightly held by the woman.
Ning Qingâs face was red with anger, and so were her eyes.
âHow could you do this!â
She knew about his past, about the hardships and pain that he and his mother had gone through. She knew that he had been treading on thin ice in the Gu family for so many years, so she understood how much he wanted the Gu family to pay the price!
However, in order to protect her, he had used himself as collateral!
If she lost, what would he be in the Gu family?
How could this be?
He couldnât do this!
She did not want him to sacrifice so much for her!
Ning Qingâs nose soured and she roared,âGu Nanzheng, why did you do this?â Iâm just an ordinary person, I can find another job if I lose it, but youâre Yingluo!â
She choked on her words and couldnât continue.
Seeing her like this, the last bit of pressure in Gu nanzhiâs heart disappeared.
He used to be afraid of being expelled by the Gu family, but now he was as relaxed as he was.
He was just a man, how could he care so much?
He just wanted to protect the career that she had always pursued and loved.
The manâs eyes were soft and gentle.
âIf you want to talk, then talk. Why are you crying?â
â......â
He raised his hand and gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
Only then did ning Qing realize that she had cried, but she didnât care. She grabbed his collar tightly. no, go back and tell those HE people that I donât need your guarantee!
Gu nanzhi laughed. how can you go back on your word so easily? â
Ning Qing gritted her teeth. but arenât you worried that Iâll lose? If I lose, what will you do?â
Her heart ached, and she couldnât control her tears.
The man smiled tenderly and sighed. itâs enough to see you cry for me once.
She was stunned and her heart ached so much that she couldnât speak.
Gu nanzhiâs eyes were also filled with tears, but he held them back.
Ning, to be honest, Iâve been very unhappy in the Gu family all these years, â he said softly. Iâm really tired when I think of my mother, my dissolute father, and my scheming relatives. If it wasnât for my motherâs death supporting me, I would have given up long ago.
â......â
He had experienced the darkest and most painful times, so he cherished the good times in front of him even more.
so what if I lose? it might Just Give Me a Reason to stay away from that home that is nothing.
Ning Qingâs lips opened and closed, and her teary eyes reflected his weak and tired appearance.
Gu nanzhi could not bear to see her cry. She smiled. Iâve never been afraid. You donât have to be afraid.
â......â
He didnât want the atmosphere to be too heavy, so he winked at her playfully. and in my heart, you are the best jewelry designer. I donât think you will lose.
