However, from the incident with Ji Minyue to the recent events, Gu Hecheng's remaining feelings for Lin Jinya gradually collapsed.
Now, after listening to Shen Qianqian's words, he felt that Lin Jinya was so despicable.
Although he didn't know who the child was, he had never touched Lin Jinya, so it couldn't be his.
In the past, Lin Jinya pretended that nothing had happened and pretended to be innocent in front of him. He couldn't believe that he believed her. Every time he thought of this, Gu Hecheng felt deeply guilty and his heart ached for Shen Qianqian.
"He Yijia did. I went to America to look for him. At that time, Yijia was sad because of my marriage, so Lin Jinya took advantage of the situation." Lin Jinya lowered her head and pursed her lips. She also felt guilty. "Speaking of this, I am sorry for Yijia."
Shen Qianqian finally told Gu Hecheng about this matter. Although he could understand Shen Qianqian's feelings for He Yijia now and he knew that there was nothing wrong with it, he couldn't help but feel jealous.
"So, because of this child, although I hate her and want Lin Jinya to pay the price, I don't want her to pay. But I still want to forget about it. "
Shen Qianqian's face flashed with a complicated expression. "Because I have Xiao Kong. I know how much a four or five-year-old child needs a mother, so I want to let her live."
After Shen Qianqian finished speaking, she said regretfully, "Sure enough, she didn't intend to tell you the truth from the beginning. She kept everything from you and never opened her heart to you. How can the two of you have a future?"
Although Shen Qianqian herself felt that this idea came out of nowhere, she still felt that it was inappropriate to say it out loud.
After Shen Qianqian finished speaking, she turned to leave. However, Gu Hecheng suddenly frowned. He suddenly grabbed her hand tightly and hugged her from behind.
Gu Hecheng said to Shen Qianqian gently, "No, I used to think so too. But when she came back, when I thought I still had feelings for her, when you left me, I realized that the person I love is you." Shen Qianqian's eyes were wide open. She looked at Gu Hecheng with a smile.
Gu Hecheng's deep voice rang in Shen Qianqian's ears. There was a kind of dominance that she couldn't refuse.
"In the past, I used to be like you. I also thought that my feelings for Lin Jinya were love. But now, I think that it was more of a protective feeling."
Gu Hecheng felt a little emotional. Perhaps it was because when he met He Yijia, he was young and inexperienced. He didn't really understand what love was and mistakenly thought that he liked Lin Jinya. He stubbornly refused to change his mind until his heart couldn't help but feel suffocated by heartache. Only then did he realize that he was wrong from the beginning.
Gu Hecheng explained to Shen Qianqian, "Because from the beginning, she appeared pitiful and helpless in front of me. Maybe it's because of my personality. From the beginning, I didn't want to see her suffer, so I protected her."
"Qianqian, the person I truly love is you." Gu Hecheng's words rang in Shen Qianqian's ears. However, Shen Qianqian did not reply.
Although Shen Qianqian's heart pounded violently, she didn't know what to say at this moment.
She didn't want to think about these things anymore. Regardless of whether what Gu Hecheng said was true or not, if she really wanted to think about it, she would find a hundred reasons to do so in her heart. Now that she had experienced so many ups and downs, and as time passed, she had seen and experienced life and death, she didn't care about these things anymore.
What she cared more about was whether she could live the life she had now, whether she could hold on to the person she truly loved, and whether she could protect the people and everything she wanted to protect.
When Gu Hecheng saw that Shen Qianqian didn't say anything for a long time and didn't struggle out of his arms, he felt a little happy. He felt that this was a sign that she had accepted him.
Thus, Gu Hecheng's heart skipped a beat. He remembered that he had just received the proposal ring this morning. He had an impulse to take it out, kneel in front of Shen Qianqian, and propose to her.
However, after thinking about it, he felt that proposing under such circumstances would seem a little rushed and inappropriate, so he hesitated again. Just as he was hesitating, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Before Gu Hecheng could react, Shen Qianqian hurriedly struggled out of his arms and whispered to him, "Mother Liu and Xiao Kong are back."
Shen Qianqian hurriedly stood up. She lowered her head and tidied her clothes. She tucked the loose strands of hair in front of her forehead behind her ears and turned to look at Gu Hecheng.
Gu Hecheng hurriedly straightened his body and sat on the sofa. Shen Qianqian felt that her cheeks were a little red. She clearly didn't do anything wrong, but she seemed to be afraid of being caught.
After she confirmed that Gu Hecheng looked normal, she relaxed and was about to turn and walk in when Mother Liu opened the door.
Mother Liu was happily chatting with Xiao Kong when she looked up and saw that Gu Hecheng and Shen Qianqian were both in the living room. The atmosphere seemed a little awkward, and the expression on her face immediately froze.
She took one step in, not knowing whether she should walk forward or not.
Mother Liu thought about it and could only take the initiative to say, "Mr. Gu, you're here?" Mother Liu glanced at Shen Qianqian again. She finally turned around and seemed to have just taken a deep breath. Her breathing was a little unsteady as she said, "He just said that he was here to freeload. I was just about to find something for him to eat. Since you're back, let's cook first."
Mother Liu knew Shen Qianqian very well. Seeing her like this, he knew that it wasn't as simple as it seemed. However, he couldn't expose her, so he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll cook now."
As Mother Liu spoke, she gently nudged Xiao Kong. Xiao Kong immediately took off his school bag and hugged Gu Hecheng happily.
Gu Hecheng reached out and hugged Xiao Kong. However, he still felt a little regretful. He couldn't help but feel that they came back a little too early. He also felt a little regretful that he didn't mention the proposal.
After Gu Hecheng slowly calmed down, he felt that it was good that he didn't mention it. After all, it was a little rushed, even though his sincerity wasn't fake at all.
Gu Hecheng thought about it seriously. He felt that it was better to find a time in the future to make this a serious matter.
He wanted to design a dreamy scene for her and then propose to her properly. With this thought in mind, he felt a lot better. He picked up Xiao Kong and said to him, "Did you have a good time at school today?"
Shen Qianqian was still standing in the same place. She secretly looked back at them. Mother Liu happened to walk past her to the kitchen. Everything seemed to have returned to normal. She finally relaxed.
Gu Hecheng freeloaded another meal at Shen Qianqian's house. However, perhaps because their conversation was suddenly interrupted by Mother Liu and Xiao Kong, it seemed to have paused in the hug time. Therefore, the atmosphere between the two of them was subtle and awkward during dinner. The two of them barely spoke.
After dinner, Mother Liu wanted to ask Gu Hecheng to sit down and eat some fruit. However, Shen Qianqian was a little uncomfortable. She gave Gu Hecheng a look. After Gu Hecheng received it, he immediately found an excuse to leave.
He leaned against Shen Qianqian's door and stood in the corridor. Gu Hecheng let out a long sigh of relief. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.
He had told Shen Qianqian everything today. Shen Qianqian was not as cold to him as before. This made him more and more confident. He felt that the day when he, Xiao Kong, and Shen Qianqian could live together again would definitely come soon.
When Gu Hecheng happily opened the door of his room, his cell phone rang. It was Lin Jinya.
Gu Hecheng frowned. He thought for a moment when he realized that Lin Jinya had replied to him earlier than he expected.
However, Gu Hecheng felt that this was good. At least it was clean and tidy. It was good for both of them.
Hecheng, you've already made up your mind. There's no room for negotiation, right? " Lin Jinya asked reluctantly with the last glimmer of hope. Then she heard Gu Hecheng's cold voice again. "Yes, I've already made up my mind. You don't have to worry about it anymore."
"There are only two choices, but I suggest that you choose the second one. By the way, I heard that you have a daughter. Even if it's for the sake of your daughter, you should take her abroad and live well."
Lin Jinya was stunned for a moment. She was speechless.
She did not expect that Gu Hecheng would suddenly mention her daughter at this time. She had never told Gu Hecheng anything about Tian Tian. However, she knew very well that Shen Qianqian must have told him this.
Thinking of this, Lin Jinya clenched her fingers even harder, as if she was holding Shen Qianqian.
After a while, Lin Jinya finally forced an awkward smile and said to him calmly, "Since I have no other choice, I promise you that I'll go back to the United States and never appear in front of you again. But before that, please give me a few more days. I have something to deal with."
"What do you have to deal with?" Gu Hecheng could not help frowning slightly and asked very warily.
