Chapter 1803 She Doesn't Believe
In the evening, Gu Xiangsi arrived at the agreed place early, a few minutes earlier than Zheng Lingyu arrived.
Not long after, Zheng Lingyu hurried over and sat opposite her.
"Let's see what to eat first?" Zheng Lingyu pushed the menu in front of Gu Xiangsi.
"What to eat, what's the matter with my dad? If you don't tell me, I won't be in the mood to eat." Gu Xiangsi didn't meet him either. After all, the two grew up together, so they didn't have so many taboos.
Mentioning this, Zheng Lingyu fell silent, looked at her and remained silent.
There is still that scar between his browbones, but the other injuries have basically disappeared.
The more he kept silent, the more nervous Gu Xiangsi became.
After a while, Zheng Lingyu said, "Did Su Jincheng say nothing to you?"
Gu Xiangsi shook her head and clasped her hands tightly in front of the table.
"Why are you so hesitant, do you want to talk?" Gu Xiangsi was a little anxious.
Zheng Lingyu let out a sigh of relief, and then said: "Xiangsi, the news is not completely confirmed yet. But before I say it, you have to promise me that you will stay calm no matter what."
"Okay." Gu Xiangsi said softly.
"I inquired about the news that... Uncle had a... heart attack two days ago, and it seems... that he couldn't be rescued." Zheng Lingyu spoke slowly in a low voice.
Gu Xiangsi stared at him blankly, almost suspecting that something was wrong with her ears.
Zheng Lingyu glanced at her, avoiding her gaze and not daring to look at her.
"What do you mean...not rescued?" Gu Xiangsi asked softly, with a slight tremor in her voice.
"Xiangsi, don't get excited. The news can't be completely confirmed now, maybe...it may not be true." Zheng Lingyu's eyes fell on her face, his eyes were complicated, and he spoke with some difficulty.
Gu Xiangsi picked up the water in hand, poured a glass, and then said, "Who did you hear the news from?"
Zheng Lingyu laughed at himself and said, "I've been in this circle for so many years, so I'll be able to hand over some people anyway."
Gu Xiangsi got up and looked at him and said, "I don't believe it, if something happens to my dad, Su Jincheng will tell me."
After saying that, Gu Xiangsi turned around and left, her eyes were flushed, but she still refused to let the tears fall.
She doesn't even know herself, what is she still insisting on?
Or, still believe in something.
Zheng Lingyu got up and looked at her back and said, "He will tell you? Xiangsi, what do you expect a person who sent your father to prison with his own hands to tell you!"
Gu Xiangsi paused slightly, but did not make a sound.
There was a fishy sweetness in the throat, like the smell of blood.
Gu Xiangsi didn't know how she got out of the hotel, but felt that the heavy snow was falling, but it couldn't compare to her cold heart at the moment.
She walked to the side of the road, and finally she couldn't hold back a tear.
Dad, is he dead?
Are you gone?
Is the man who scolded her and beat her but gave her all his love really gone?
In this kind of heavy snow day?
Will he feel cold, will he feel sad?
She doesn't believe it, she doesn't believe it.
She couldn't believe he was gone.
Gu Xiangsi raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, her steps were a little staggering.
It was less than eight o'clock when I got home.
There are still his prepared meals on the table, but he hasn't come back yet.
Sitting on the sofa, Gu Xiangsi dug out a bottle of wine and poured herself a glass, then drank it herself.
When Su Jincheng came back, it was almost ten o'clock at night.
After the next year, because it is related to the transfer of positions, if he wants to be promoted, he will naturally have to pay a little more than others.
Besides, Gu Xiangsi didn't want to see him either.
