Chapter 24: Is Heaven Playing a Joke?

  Chapter 364: The Couple Visits the Film Set

  So many familiar faces, yet she only called a girl with no blood relation and whom she had just met less than ten days ago. Lin's mother became more and more out of control emotionally, but Lin's father remained calm, holding her back and saying, "Don't be like this, it will be okay, let's go eat something first."

  "Eat, eat, eat, that's all you know! Sometimes I wonder if you're really Rongrong's father?" Every time they quarrel, Lin's mother is always very dominant, always denying her husband, while Lin's father silently endures it, but in fact, he is the one who is most hurt inside.

  "What are you talking about? If it's not my child, did he fall from the sky?" Lin's father had reached his limit and loudly responded before running out.

  "How can you talk to me like that? Are you out of your mind?" Lin's mother was so agitated by her husband that she panted, still pointing at the back of Lin's father as she sat down heavily on a chair.

  In the blink of an eye, when Gu Xi raised her head, there were still three elders beside her, while Ling Haoyu quietly and silently disappeared. She excused herself to go to the bathroom, walked out the door and heard a low hum, it was Ling Haoyu hiding under the shade of a tree in the backyard, holding his abdomen, with a very painful expression.

  "What's wrong? Forgotten to take your medicine again, now dying can't solve the problem?" Gu Xi hastily ran over and helped him up, sitting beside the flowerbed. Then she rushed out of the infirmary, her speed rivaling that of a champion sprinter. She opened his hand and took out two corn-sized pills, stuffing them into Ling Haoyu's mouth. Quickly, she gave him another small cup of water to wash down the pills.

  Ling Hao Yu slowly opened his eyes, and gently leaned on her shoulder. Listening to her cold words, he felt warmth in his heart, "Girl, it's great to have you!"

  She has been living abroad since she was a child, typical precocious, tough outside and soft inside! In her student days, she took good care of her friends, and over time this care became a habit.

  "You look down on men who are weak and sickly, it seems you're no good either."

  "Who says I'm not capable? My is big and hard, go back and I'll show you!" He reluctantly left her shoulder, mischievously stretched out his hand to play with her hair, teasingly said.

  "Get out of here!"

  In an instant, her face turned pink, and this girl also knew how to be shy, she turned around and walked back to look at Lin Xiaorong. In her heart, she was secretly scolding herself, shameless. Usually, when attending classes with a group of male friends, they would openly discuss sex topics, but today, she suddenly became shy.

  When she came in, it became much quieter inside. Except for Lin Xiaorong lying quietly, there was no one else. A 1.8-meter-long small bed, a tea table with stainless steel thermoses commonly used in rural areas. Next to it were several empty glass cups. Although the things inside were very old, every aspect of hygiene was well taken care of. The cleaning aunt was sweating profusely and running around.

  "Hey, feeling any better?" She saw Lin Xiaorong blink and said coldly.

  "What did you just call me?" Lin Xiaorong asked Gu Xi with a bewildered expression.

  "Big butt!"

  "What did you say?" Lin Xiaorong's expression was vague and cloudy, but it really had some charm, and she stretched her ears to the side of Gu Xi again.

  "I'm telling you, you're a big butt, deaf and crazy!" Gu Xi shouted loudly with wide eyes. If it weren't for her being sick, she really wanted to punch her twice. It's really annoying that she has to repeat herself twice, and her voice is usually not soft.

  "What's going on?"

  I don't know where Ling Haoyu came from, laughing and pulling up Gu Xi, this extreme girl really makes people both hate and love her.

  "Big butt... big butt... big butt!" Lin Xiaorong kept muttering to herself, her hands still clapping non-stop. What kind of crazy method is this?

  Time passed day by day, and Lin Xiaorong gradually regained consciousness. The police had a breakthrough in the case, following the testimony of the old spinster minister, that night after the quarrel, Lin Xiaorong was unhappy and sat on the sofa in the hall. Suddenly, a fiery figure emerged, swaying back and forth, with a pair of slender legs that were truly enticing, but unfortunately, one was long and the other short.

  "Hey, you're quite bold, aren't you? You dare to provoke the big shot, haven't you seen my legs? Even if you did provoke her, other book friends are watching. She's the queen, and you're just a little servant girl, what are you showing off about? Please don't move stones to hit your own feet!"

  Lin Xiaorong heard such sharp and bitter words, the anger in her heart became even more severe. She tightly clenched her fists and saw a waiter just entering Linda's room to deliver tea. In a fit of rage, she rushed over and snatched the teapot, and as soon as she pushed open the door, Linda lay motionless on the bed, her forehead covered with beads of sweat, her facial expression extremely uncomfortable.

  A month later, the news miraculously stopped. Lin Xiaorong was also released, and the whole case seemed to be understood by only a few people. It didn't stir up as much commotion as before, and nobody pursued the matter further.

  The sun in June was scorching hot. Gu Xi continued to send out singles as usual, and with each passing day, her heart slowly calmed down.

  "Look at you, if you continue like this, all I'll see is your teeth. Come home with me." Ling Hao Yu followed her every day, using every trick in the book, calling a group of people to take orders or giving the boss a lot of money indirectly for her.

  The scorching sun, so hot that it's hard to keep one's eyes open. She didn't even wear a hat or apply sunscreen, and she was tanning recklessly. Her originally fair and delicate face had become dark and rough, but she didn't care.

  "What's it to you? Go wherever is cooler!" As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't stand upright. Her head was spinning and dizzy, probably from heatstroke.

  "Ah, you didn't listen!" Ling Haoyu's hands stretched out to her, picking her up and putting her into the car. Looking at her dark face, his heart was tangled with anxiety. If he hadn't selfishly taken away her ID card, perhaps she would be comfortably sitting in the office right now.

  Every time she tried to get her to go to work at Fan Yu, she refused. This girl is very stubborn. After arriving home, the familiar voice in the house was actually Ling's mother who came over to visit and was making pickled vegetables with the nanny Zhang Xiaohui.

  "What's wrong, kid?"

  "It's okay, Xiaoxi just got heatstroke, she'll be fine after a rest!"

  "Where did the child go?" Ling's mother was still lowering her head to stir-fry the green vegetables, and she didn't see Gu Xi's face clearly. She just smiled and said that after a while, she would return with Old Ling to attend a charity dinner.

  Ling Hao Yu sent her to the room for a quiet rest, and he himself took out his ID card and stared at it for half a day. Feeling that he was about to lose her at this moment, evil thoughts emerged in his mind, and soon the phone rang, making him anxious, so he rushed out of the door to answer the call.

  When he came in again, she got up. Holding her ID card and laughing wildly, she would rather believe that this thing would disappear forever than believe that a thirty-year-old man could make such a childish move?

  Looking back on this period, life is really tough. Just a formal job interview opportunity, her life was so fragile that he could ruin it? Is it God playing a big joke on her?

  "What's wrong?" Ling Haoyu walked over to her side with some fear and sat down, patting her shoulder.

  "What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me? Am I an idiot? Yeah, damn it, I'm a bloody idiot!" After saying that, he lost his mind and got out of bed without even putting on slippers.

  "Ah!!"

  Gu Xi came out, slipped and fell on the stairs, no matter how sad she was, tears refused to fall. No matter how hard Ling Hao Yu tried to pull her up, she shook his hand off fiercely. Dazed, she walked to the door and sat down on the grass in the courtyard, as the sky gradually darkened, she sat barefoot, then fell onto the ground with a blank expression.

  "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you leave me, I know I'm emotionally immature!"

  "Is saying sorry enough? I don't care about your emotional stupidity, or your life stupidity. Can you please do something with my consent for once? No need to say more, it seems this is the best excuse for me to leave. Tomorrow I'll move out, and we won't owe each other anything." Gu Xi was perhaps melted by his overbearing attitude, remaining silent for two hours without any resistance, finally breaking the silence.

  "Don't you understand why I'm doing this? Is it just because I'm restricting you?"
