Chapter 839: Chapter 817:
Le Zhengsheng held her by the back of her head, "Gu Xiaoning, let’s play a game!"
"Hmm?" Gu Xiaoning was puzzled, why the sudden mention of playing a game?
Although she didn’t understand, she still nodded, "Sure!"
Le Zhengsheng smiled lightly, this girl... how could she have such a good temper? What kind of luck did he have to meet her here?
"Listen carefully." Le Zhengsheng cleared his throat, "Ahem, I’m going to say a few sentences, and out of these, only one is true... Try to guess which one is true, okay?"
"Ah?" Gu Xiaoning got nervous, "Is it a logic puzzle? That’s not my strength! Hmm, make it a little easier for me..."
"Alright."
Le Zhengsheng nodded, his features delicate like a painting.
"Listen carefully... The sun is really round tonight..."
Gu Xiaoning was stunned, how can there be a sun at night?
However, before she could ask, Le Zhengsheng continued, "The sun is really round tonight..."
Hmm? Gu Xiaoning was even more dumbfounded, how could both sentences be the same?
Le Zhengsheng’s voice became deeper, "The sun is really round tonight..."
Again? Gu Xiaoning couldn’t help but laugh, "What are you doing? Teasing me?"
Le Zhengsheng ignored her, holding her restless hand, and continued, "Le Zhengsheng likes Gu Xiaoning..."
Before he finished speaking...
The previously laughing Gu Xiaoning suddenly fell silent. Her once-agitated body also froze...
Le Zhengsheng gently stroked her cheek, "Alright, I’m done speaking... Out of these sentences, only one is true. Choose quickly, and if you get it right... I’ll have a reward for you!"
"..."
Gu Xiaoning blinked, her eyes gradually becoming moist.
What is this! This person really is... If you’re going to confess, can’t you do it properly? Such a sudden and strange way! Do I even need to choose? This is clearly a freebie question!
"Tch." Gu Xiaoning pouted, "I know."
"Know what?" Le Zhengsheng smiled faintly, "You have to say it out loud for me to give you the reward, don’t you want the reward?"
"Hmm..." Gu Xiaoning was actually a bit shy, softly saying, "Le Zhengsheng likes Gu Xiaoning..."
Le Zhengsheng lowered his eyes, smiled, "That’s right."
He extended his hand to Gu Xiaoning, "Come, come claim your reward!"
"What is it?" Gu Xiaoning held his hand and jumped down from the car.
Le Zhengsheng stood before her, arms open wide, "Your boyfriend, will you take him?"
"..." Gu Xiaoning’s mouth dropped open, as if she couldn’t believe this was real, the events of the evening... were too thrilling!
Le Zhengsheng saw her standing there dumbly, frowned, "What’s the matter? Don’t want him? Then I’ll take it back..."
"I want him!"
Gu Xiaoning shouted, interrupting him, leaping up to cling onto him tightly, "Why wouldn’t I want him? Once given, there’s no taking it back, right? Once given to me, he’s mine! Le Zhengsheng, you’re mine!"
She lowered her head, burying it into his neck.
Le Zhengsheng felt a warmth and dampness in his neck... Gu Xiaoning was crying.
Le Zhengsheng gently patted her shoulder, not exposing her.
...
Taking Gu Xiaoning back, Le Zhengsheng got out of the car, holding her hand as they walked slowly inside.
"Quit your job!" Le Zhengsheng said softly.
"Ah?" Gu Xiaoning was hopping around, startled, and stopped, "Why?"
"Don’t you know your boyfriend is very rich?" Le Zhengsheng raised his hand, putting it on her head.
A bicycling kid passed by, speeding down a slope.
Hastily, Le Zhengsheng pulled her over, "Be careful!"
"Ah!" Gu Xiaoning bumped into his arms, "Oh."
"Alright." Le Zhengsheng nodded, "Since you agreed, tomorrow go resign from both the hospital job and that part-time gig."
Gu Xiaoning was dumbfounded, her speech slurred, "W-w-when did I agree?"
Le Zhengsheng looked at her, "Hmm? Didn’t you just say ’oh’?"
"..." Gu Xiaoning was speechless, "I, I didn’t..."
"Let’s go!" But Le Zhengsheng didn’t give her a chance to regret it, pulling her along as he pushed open the courtyard gate. "Auntie, Ningning’s back."
Gu’s mother had just bathed little Zheng, sitting in the living room blow-drying his hair, and saw them hand in hand, her eyes curving with a smile. "Ah, you’re back early, wasn’t the road congested?"
"Not really."
Gu Xiaoning tried to pull her hand back, but Le Zhengsheng wouldn’t let go, "Auntie, Ningning and I are together, and we’ve discussed her quitting her job. Auntie, you too, don’t need to go work anymore, I’ll support this family."
"This..."
Gu’s mother looked at her daughter, not knowing how to respond to this.
Le Zhengsheng was clear in his thoughts, "I know what you’re thinking. I’m still in treatment, so the wedding might be... but I truly like Ningning, I’m not using wealth to pressure, rather, I’m with Ningning, the kind of ’for life’ kind, so please trust me, Auntie."
"..." Gu’s mother’s mouth opened, eyes moistening, "Ah! Ok... as long as Ningning is willing, Auntie has no objections."
Saying this, she looked at her daughter, "Ningning?"
"Ningning has already agreed." Le Zhengsheng quickly said.
Gu Xiaoning pursed her lips, smiling, really... does what he wants, how can he be so domineering!
Le Zhengsheng looked at the old and shutting house, "Also, you can’t live here, I’ll find a place... you all move there as soon as possible."
"This..." Gu’s mother didn’t know what to say, only looking at her daughter.
Gu Xiaoning nodded towards her mother, "Hmm."
With this, Gu’s mother had to comply. "Then... it’s settled!"
Le Zhengsheng nodded, "Then, I’ll head off first... Auntie, rest early."
As soon as he left, Gu’s mother pulled Gu Xiaoning, "Ningning, does this mean he wants to live with you? Live together first, then marry?"
"..." Gu Xiaoning froze, extremely embarrassed, "Mom, how did you even hear that meaning?"
Chapter 529: Someone About to Die
Le Zhengsheng was busy looking for a house, which Yu Sangwan saw.
"Is this house a bit small?"
Le Zhengsheng frowned, "Small?"
"Yeah." Yu Sangwan nodded, "Don’t look for an apartment, look for a villa... one with a yard."
"Hmm." Le Zhengsheng pondered, "I did think about that, but with Auntie and Ningning, and little Zheng in that situation... wouldn’t an apartment be safer?"
Yu Sangwan gaped at him, surprised, "And what about you?"
"Me?" Le Zhengsheng was taken aback for a moment, realizing what she meant, his cheeks immediately flushed, "Ahem... I’m not going, that wouldn’t be appropriate."
Yu Sangwan laughed, "Didn’t realize you were so conservative?"
Le Zhengsheng’s face turned crimson, staying silent.
Yu Sangwan had never seen him like this before, and stopped teasing, "Don’t look anymore... just let them live at my place! Originally, the house Jinxuan prepared for me, Xueyan and I didn’t move in... Perfect, let Ningning and her family move in."
Le Zhengsheng opened his mouth, Yu Sangwan smiled and quickly spoke, "What, are you going to be polite with me?"
"No." Le Zhengsheng also smiled, "Alright, let’s do that."
...
At the Gu Family’s place, they started packing because they were moving out for good, so organizing wasn’t easy.
Gu’s mother was busy, her feet barely touching the ground, but thinking about the future life, she didn’t feel tired.
