Chapter 172 [5000 words](1/2)
But he just took a sip of tea and said calmly: "She suffered from mental illness and was sent to the United States for recuperation a few months after giving birth to the child."
He just said no. Ji Xinyao's hand holding the spoon immediately stopped.
He raised his eyes and looked at Gu Nancy in surprise.
"Have you lost your mind?" She couldn't believe it.
Gu Nanxi seemed to have known about this for a long time, and was not surprised at all. She carefully helped her fill a bowl of soup to avoid burning her, then placed it in front of her, and said in a calm tone: "From a medical point of view
, it’s hysteria, intermittent mental disorder.”
Ji Xinyao still had the appetite to eat, so she put down the spoon, but he indicated with his eyes that she had to eat, and she picked up the spoon again, but it felt like a big hole was instantly poked in her heart.
Xiu Li has not seen his biological mother since he was born. It would be fine if it was a dead person separated forever. Although he has regrets, he can only accept his fate. However, his mother is still alive, but he is... heartbroken.
crazy……
She couldn't help but ask: "Does Xiuli know?"
Gu Nanxi looked at her and said, "Maybe."
"Maybe? What do you mean? I don't understand." Ji Xinyao was rarely confused. She could feel that whether it was the Gu family, the Ji family or whatever, there seemed to be a big side in the middle that was separated by more than twenty years, like a ring.
They are intertwined, but there seems to be no connection, and every time I want to trace something back, I find that they are blocked by some strange obstacles in the middle.
"Even if he knew, he couldn't find her."
"Isn't it in the United States? It was sent to the United States more than 20 years ago? Who sent it? Where was it sent? How could it not be found?"
Gu Nanxi didn't seem to see Ji Xinyao's distressed expression for Xiu Li, but sat next to her and watched her eat: "Eat first, we will talk about anything later. This is not Nippori, so talking is not
inconvenient."
Although Xin Yao was a little anxious, she also understood that in the Mid-Levels Hotel, even the high-end guest rooms did not know whether the walls had ears. She looked at Gu Nanxi's expression that was not deliberately concealing anything, and then nodded.
He smiled faintly and brought her some vegetables: "Don't you usually like to eat meat? Eat more. Don't forget what I said. Your daily nutritional intake should be balanced."
Ji Xinyao looked at the braised pork he put in her bowl, her heart warmed, and she raised her eyes to look at him: "Gu Nanxi, do you want to use your gentleness to destroy the wall in my heart? Before I thought everything
When it's all over, when I want to look away completely, when I desperately regard you as a dream I've had for half a year, when I have picked up my old life again, why do you want to
Suddenly he came and blocked my way..."
But he just picked up the braised pork in her bowl and fed it to her mouth: "Are you a repeater? Eat something."
She was embarrassed and had to open her mouth.

I slept extremely soundly that night. I had forced myself to close my eyes every day for a month, but I was so confused that I couldn't really fall asleep. Sometimes I would just keep my eyes open until dawn, and I didn't dare to take sleeping pills because of my pregnancy. This whole month,
This night was the most solid and sound sleep she had ever had.
When she woke up early in the morning, she fell into a pair of black eyes as warm as springs. She was startled for a moment when she saw Gu Nanxi lying next to her in her pajamas, but he had been looking at her.
She subconsciously pulled the quilt to cover her face, then stuck her head out to look at him, and asked strangely: "Why do you keep looking at me? How long have you been looking at me?"
"I'll be watching it when I wake up." He smiled softly and meaningfully.
He said it bluntly, but he asked her to raise her hands and touch her mouth and face, wondering if she was drooling while sleeping and he noticed for so long that she was grinding her teeth and snoring.
If you get used to it, will your face look ugly when you sleep...
Every time she saw him when she woke up in the morning, his soft and clean hair was always so natural and handsome, which made her heart feel a little unbearable.
"What are you looking at me doing?" She covered her face with the quilt. They used to get up and wash up normally in the morning at home. This was the first time she discovered that he would look at her for so long while she was sleeping, which caused her a lot of pain.
She was embarrassed.
But he smiled and said nothing, pulled down the quilt covering her face, bowed his head and sealed her mouth.
As their lips and tongues entangled, she was still thinking about everything that happened yesterday. By the time she discovered that his big hands had penetrated her clothes and touched the most sensitive point on her chest, she didn't know how many minutes later he had warmed her up.
Hot's palm rubbed her chest teasingly, causing her whole body to tremble. She couldn't help but want to get up, but her body was firmly pressed to the bed by him.
"Nancy, don't~"
His hands made waves on her body, and then he bent down and gently kissed her collarbone in front of the collar of her nightgown. The kiss fell like a feather, gently sweeping across her collarbone, and then landed on her collarbone again.
Her white neck, when she couldn't bear it and wanted to push him away, he held her hand, gently pulled her hand down, and bowed his head to kiss her deeply.
While their necks were wrapped around each other, the sunlight that was all over the ground shone on them. At that time, Ji Xinyao was panting and her cheeks were red. Finally, he covered her body and just held her, no longer moving, a little hurriedly.
His breath caressed her ears.
Ji Xinyao had no power to resist. Seeing him stop at the last moment, Ji Xinyao couldn't help but laugh: "It seems that every man has to endure this stage when he becomes a father for the first time. I am very curious about what other men are doing."
How did you do it in these ten months~"
After saying that, she pushed him: "It's getting late, I have to get up, Lu Ge, Linlin and the others should still be waiting for me..."
"Yes." There was a rare trace of laziness in Gu Nanxi's voice, and she bent down and kissed the tip of her nose before finally letting her go.
After washing and changing clothes, Ji Xinyao's feet were still a little swollen due to the good effect of the ice pack last night, but she could limp away wearing slippers. As soon as she went out, she saw the work of the Banshan Guild Hall.
The staff came in to clean up the room. When they saw her, they nodded respectfully to her: "Miss Ji."
"Where's Mr. Gu...Mayor?" She didn't see Gu Nancy when she came out.
"The deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee came over just now and seemed to have something to do. Now Mayor Gu and the deputy secretary are talking outside the door." The staff member said respectfully.
Ji Xinyao understood and smiled at the staff member: "Thank you."
When they walked out, they saw Gu Nancy, wearing a light blue sweater and beige cotton trousers, standing on the sun-filled grass outside the glass wall in the corridor with the glass wall, and that person
A middle-aged man wearing a navy blue shirt was talking.
Is this the deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of City F?
Yesterday when she was eating, she only heard these people call him secretary. She thought that the secretary of City F had been changed. She clearly remembered that the person who entertained Nancy Gu at the construction exhibition in City F a few months ago was still the Secretary of City F.
, but this time, it was the deputy secretary. It seemed that two groups were trying to establish a good relationship with Gu Nanxi. It seemed that Gu Nanxi had some benefits that they wanted to gain.
Ji Xinyao couldn't go out, so she just stood in the corridor. Seeing Gu Nanxi with a somewhat opaque smile in her eyes when talking to the deputy secretary, she calmed down and looked around at the distance from last night.
Originally, the room I decided to stay in was not too far away, so I turned around and limped toward that direction.
As soon as I walked back, I suddenly saw a beautiful figure looking in the mirror and applying makeup on the tea seat opposite the room.
Ji Xinyao paused and walked over: "Linlin, where is Brother Lu?"
Linlin's makeup hand stopped for a moment. She did not look back at her, but glanced at her in the small mirror in her hand: "Oh, it's Xin Yao~"
The sour tone made Ji Xinyao frown: "Isn't Brother Lu here?"
"Why didn't I see that you don't put on much makeup and don't study fashion much? Underneath your clear and watery appearance, you actually have a vixen's heart? It only took one afternoon to get close to our Mayor Gu.
, I asked you why you suddenly ran out last night. It turned out that you were looking for Mayor Gu, staged a touching and painful plot, and finally moved Mayor Gu and got into his bed, right? "
As she spoke, Linlin directly put the small mirror in her hand and looked back at Ji Xinyao's frowning eyebrows with a sneer: "What? After being slept with by our Mayor Gu for one night, you feel that you are superior to others, don't you? What do I do?
Only then did we realize that you are this kind of woman? Let’s
Everyone in the company knows that Lu Han likes you, so I asked you why you, a woman, have never agreed to Lu Han's pursuit. It turns out that you are such a restless woman, and your eyes are as high as the top of your head. The editor-in-chief doesn't like you, so directly
I’ve fallen in love with the mayor~”
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I, Linlin, think I have good looks. If we stand together, you will definitely be the fate of Luye. Who would have thought that Luye now would play the trick of suffering in the rain to win the affection of the mayor!"
"Linlin, don't talk nonsense. Xinyao and Mayor Gu are not in that kind of relationship." At this time, Lu Han came from the corridor with two drinks. Hearing Linlin's words, he drank directly from her.
"Why is it not that kind of relationship? Yesterday we were strangers. I was the one who helped and shouted that we were going to play golf, and I wanted to actively participate in it. But why did everything good happen to her?
I could see it when Mayor Gu taught her how to play ball. It felt so good to be eaten..."
Just when Ji Xinyao was about to speak, her waist suddenly felt warm. She turned her head suddenly and saw Gu Nanxi walking over at some point and hugging her waist directly.
"Editor-in-Chief Lu." Gu Nanxi looked at Lu Han walking over there.
As soon as Lu Han saw him, he put down his drink and nodded politely: "Mayor Gu, I'm sorry, Linlin didn't understand the situation, so I was very offended."
"It doesn't matter, I made my wife so angry that she ran away from home for a month. I finally took this opportunity to coax her back, but I accidentally got someone else's tongue in my mouth." Gu Nanxi smiled, and after a faint glance, her eyes widened.
Linlin was stunned: "I'm sorry, Xin Yao is my wife."
In an instant, Linlin's mouth shape changed from an O shape to one that could swallow an egg. She was surprised for a long time, then she hurriedly put away the small mirror in her hand and put it into her bag. She ran to stand behind Lu Han with some embarrassment, hunching her shoulders.
Whispered: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I misunderstood!"
Ji Xinyao sighed and found that Gu Nanxi was becoming more and more sophisticated in her methods of irritating people. How could he be embarrassed? He was clearly very embarrassed!
Looking at Lu Han's expression, which was also a little embarrassed but not surprised, it seemed that Gu Nancy had made it clear to him last night.
"Brother Lu, I'm sorry." Ji Xinyao looked directly at Lu Han and said, "Some things happened that I couldn't explain clearly at the moment, but I reported to the company that I really wanted to go back and planned to continue working under you, but I didn't expect that.
The development of the situation is a bit..."
"You don't need to say that." Before she could finish explaining, Lu Han smiled as if he was relieved: "I'm very happy that you are willing to come back. Our company likes to attract talents. Even if I am not on top, but other editors-in-chief are here, we will still be happy.
I will accept you in the same way."
"But I've only been working for less than a month. Going back and forth like this will cause some losses to the company. I'm sorry..."
