Staying at my best friend's house, she was spotted by her gangster uncle

Chapter 503 "Didn't find a woman?"

He had never listened to someone as carefully as he did now, and rarely explored another person's world.

He began to be interested in her, but he didn't realize it.

At that moment he needed someone to talk to, someone who didn't need to understand too much.

Gu Jinyan turned his head and looked out the window. It was already very late at night.

“Have you ever felt lonely?”

alone?

Everyone has times when they feel lonely, and no one doesn't know what it feels like.

"Had."

Has she had it too?

"When?"

Gu Jinyan needs someone with whom he can resonate with his soul to relieve his loneliness.

"Often, like...right now."

Now?

Gu Jinwei also had the same feeling. Even if there were people standing around him and even if he was surrounded by girls, he would still feel lonely.

So, she seemed to understand what he was saying.

Gu Jinwei looked at her with a fragile look in his eyes, which was a sign that a man trusted the other.

Qiao Nian didn't understand.

"You know how pathetic I am?"

This adjective is surprising. Gu Jinwei and the word "pitiful" seem to have nothing in common, right?

Qiao Nian did not refute him, but listened to what he had to say like an old friend he had known for a long time.

Gu Jinwei paused and said casually:

"I'm divorced, my wife left with the kids, and I'm left alone. I'm free and relaxed. I don't have to look at other people's faces anymore, I don't have to smoke secretly, I don't have to hide out to drink anymore, so I should be happy, right?"

He was laughing as he spoke, as if mocking the unbearable things he had endured over the years.

But in Qiao Nian's opinion, he was indeed pitiful.

What kind of marriage could destroy him like this? In other words, what made him become a different person?

Is he wrong?

In her opinion, those were all expressions of love for family.

"Do you love your wife very much?"

Love? Of course, but he couldn't answer at that time.

"Maybe."

This answer is unexpected, and this is the main reason for divorce.

Qiao Nian looked at him quietly, and suddenly said something that surprised Gu Jinyan:

"You don't love her, you only love the feeling that family brings you, and you really need a stable sense of happiness."

The words hit home, as if she had witnessed his marriage.

Lu Tingshen also once said that he loved himself more than Lu Siyao.

What he loves is the stability that the other person brings him, and it doesn’t matter who the other person is.

They don't understand each other and never care about what the other wants.

So, although on the surface they are husband and wife, in reality they are not suitable.

A true marriage must be a match of souls. After the passion has faded, if you still want to love each other, then it is not just physical.

Therefore, Qiao Nian, who had never experienced marriage, spoke out the problems between them.

Gu Jinyan was very surprised:

"Then why can't I let it go?"

Qiao Nian replied:

“What you can’t let go of is habit. You’ve been used to the same life for ten years, and sudden changes make you uneasy.

So you keep torturing yourself to prove that you are doing well.”

Gu Jinwei closed his eyes and thought back over such a long time, and it was indeed like that.

“Am I terrible?”

His voice was shaking.

If it hadn't been so quiet that night, she would have told him that he was a jerk.

However, she did not say it out loud, but tried to comfort him:

“Everyone has a chance to start over, and letting go may be the best option.

I have seen you in photos, at least you were happy at that time."

Happy?

Gu Jinwei raised his head so that the tears would not flow.

In the night light, a tear slid across the corner of his eye, and Qiao Nian witnessed it.

His sadness is real, his assholery is real, and his tears are real.

So she didn't let a tear wash away her perception of him that she had had for so long.

He is a devil, and the devil's tears cannot be trusted.

Later, Gu Jinwei fell asleep. She quietly turned off the lights and left.

The next day, Uncle Li transferred her to the position of taking care of Gu Jinyan.

Wages also doubled.

Of course her purpose is to make money. Who can resist money?

When Qiao Nian came in, Gu Jinyan was about to go for a morning run. The moment their eyes met, there was a hint of touching in their expressions.

Not intentionally, but definitely true.

Whether it was Qiao Nian or Gu Jinyan, both of them had changed.

It's just that both of them dodged deliberately and no one noticed.

Qiao Nian thought he just drank too much yesterday and didn't remember what he said or did.

But she didn't know that Gu Jinyan was not drunk last night and was much more sober than usual.

He even knew when she closed the door and left.

Because Gu Jinyan was not asleep, he just wanted her to go back and rest because it was too late.

Gu Jinyan was looking for the headphones as usual, and Qiao Nian handed them to him, and the two of them just stayed in tacit understanding without making a sound.

It's quite natural, without even a glance or a movement.

Gu Jinyan was stunned, and Qiao Nian was also stunned.

It turns out that tacit understanding is a perfect fusion, just like a habit, and habits are difficult to change.

Gu Jinyan got used to her care, and his mood returned to normal since then.

Emotional stability is actually a positive word, but it is also a negative word because there are some uncontrollable factors involved.

|

This calmness lasted until Lu Tingshen suddenly appeared.

Qiao Nian may not have too many feelings for Gu Jinyan, but her feelings for Lu Tingshen are visibly evident.

I think it should be considered a good impression. After all, everyone has their own favorite point.

Like it?

Maybe not entirely, she wouldn't like someone she doesn't know at all.

Lu Tingshen's sudden visit caught Gu Jinyan off guard.

In the past, he seldom came to the Gu family, even when Lu Siyao was around, he rarely came.

When Qiao Nian saw Lu Tingshen walking past her, her heart beat faster.

It was an uncontrollable feeling.

"Boss, why are you here?"

Gu Jinyan came out of the study and saw Lu Tingshen walking in.

"What? A beautiful woman hidden in the golden house?"

Lu Tingshen cares about him and pays attention to him.

I heard that he hasn’t been to nightclubs for a while. Did something happen to cause this sudden change?

So, Lu Tingshen came over to take a look.

Qiao Nian stood there in a daze, staring at Lu Tingshen intently.

There was something strange in her eyes, the kind of strange look that a girl gets when she likes someone.

Gu Jinyan glanced at her and replied:

"No."

What is she doing?

Gu Jinyan was a little unhappy and said to her:

"Go get two cups of coffee."

Qiao Nian came back to his senses:

"Oh~"

What's wrong with her?

Only then did Lu Tingshen notice the woman next to him. Why did she look familiar?

But why would he never think of her?

Lu Tingshen and Gu Jinyan entered the study and sat on the sofa:

"Why haven't you been to the nightclub recently?"

Gu Jinyan raised his eyebrows:

"Didn't you tell me not to go to places like that?"

He really knows how to pass the buck.

Lu Tingshen looked at him:

"No woman?"
