I just want to inherit the family property and don't want to fall in love

After a heavy rain, the first thing he did when he returned home was to take advantage of Ning Xi's time to take a hot bath, and Gu Tingjun made thick ginger soup.

It came from the bathroom. Wearing a large bathrobe, Ning Xi was lying on the bed exhausted, without even drying her hair.

She was too tired and needed rest, but the confusion of thoughts made her start to wander as soon as she lay down.

When Gu Tingjun came in with ginger soup, he saw Ning Xi's wet hair at a glance, and immediately frowned again.

Asking her to drink the ginger soup, Gu Tingjun went into the bathroom and took out a clean towel, pulled her over without saying a word, put her head on the side of the bed, and gently dried her hair.

During the whole process, Ning Xi was obedient, with her eyes closed, enjoying Gu Tingjun's tenderness.

Smelling Gu Tingjun's unique scent, Ning Xi's turbulent thoughts gradually returned to calm.

After Gu Tingjun wiped Ning Xi's hair, he found that she had fallen asleep.

Shaking his head, he raised his hand to gently pinch her nose, revealing a doting smile.

Gently carried her back to the middle of the bed, pulled the quilt over and covered her, when Gu Tingjun was about to leave, her hand was tightly grasped.

"Don't, don't leave me..."

Indistinct words spit out from Ning Xi's mouth, full of uneasiness, begging and panic.

Gu Tingjun quickly held her hand, leaned against her, and coaxed softly: "I'm here, I'm here..."

With her eyes tightly closed, Ning Xi's brows were tangled together, full of anxiety.

At first, he thought she was just having a nightmare, but when Gu Tingjun saw the abnormal flush on her cheeks, Gu Tingjun's heart skipped a beat, and he stroked her forehead with his big hand, it was very hot.

Sure enough, I still have a fever!
As soon as he hugged her in his arms, he felt that her whole body was hot, like a high-temperature stove.

Ning Xi curled up into a ball in his arms, her body still shivering.

Seeing her uncomfortable appearance, Gu Tingjun felt distressed and blamed himself.

It's all because he went too late and didn't find her in time, causing her to have a high fever after being drenched in the rain for so long.

"Kapian, the young master has a fever, come and show her."

He took out his mobile phone with one hand and called Mu Mian, telling her to come over quickly.

The two sisters Mu Jin and Mu Mian, apart from being responsible for Ning Xi's daily life, Mu Jin was also a cook and Mu Yan was a family doctor.

But because Gu Tingjun came, Mu Jin's job as chef was handed over to Gu Tingjun.

Soon, Kapok hurried over with a medical kit.

Ning Xi was in a daze in her sleep, she felt like she had fallen into a red world.

That patch of red was exactly the same color as the blood that filled the bathroom when my mother died.

In the sea of ​​red, her mother stood there smiling at her in a red dress.

"mom……"

Ning Xi wanted to go there, but no matter how she walked or ran, it was all in vain. The distance between her and her mother did not change at all.

Mu Zhuyun just watched Ning Xi go crazy like this quietly, the expression on her face was the same as before, even the curvature of her lips didn't change at all.

Although she was smiling, Mu Zhuyun's eyes were icy cold, as if she didn't care whether her daughter could reach her.

"Mother……"

Finally, Ning Xi exhausted all her strength and collapsed on the cold ground, like a poor little girl abandoned by her mother.

Suddenly Mu Zhuyun's expression changed, and she said indifferently: "It's really useless! You can't even do this little thing well, you don't deserve to be my daughter."

After finishing speaking, Mu Zhuyun turned around and walked towards the red mist behind her, her figure gradually blurred.

"No! Mom! I've worked hard! Don't leave me behind!"

Kneeling on the ground, Ning Xi struggled to catch her mother's fading figure, but it was all in vain.

"Mommy mommy!……"

Ning Xi's chapped and pale lips let out an unconscious murmur, and her white teeth bit her lower lip tightly, as if she was enduring something.

Seeing that Gu Tingjun's heart was also tightly together, he felt anxious and distressed.

Kapok has hung water on her and put an ice pack on her forehead to physically cool her down. All she can do now is wait.

But the more this time, the more tormented.

Seeing her suffering so much and falling into the pain of a nightmare, Gu Tingjun wished he could bear all this instead of her.

When he was kicked out of the house by the Gu family and fell into the street, he was not as anxious as he is now.

After the others nervously came over to check, they left, leaving Gu Tingjun to take care of Ning Xi.

It was already late at night, and Ning Xi's fever went back and forth, and it went back and forth again and again.

The nightmare didn't mean to wake up, so Gu Tingjun kept guarding her, put her hand in his palm, and wanted to use his own strength to support her through it.

The door was pushed open, but the person who walked in was not any of them from Qili.

"You came."

Seeing the person coming, Gu Tingjun was not surprised at all, and glanced at him calmly, his eyes continued to fall on Ning Xi's face.

"You know it all."

Sitting down on the other side of the bed, seeing his appearance, Quan Lukun knew that Gu Tingjun should have known that Feng Qingyun was Ning Xi.

Gu Tingjun nodded and admitted: "At first, I was just skeptical. Whether it was Xixi's behavior, or your behavior after the Ning family announced her death, they all seemed normal, but when you think about it carefully, they are very problematic."

Gu Tingjun was right about this point, Tianmu Qianxue said the same thing before, that's why she suspected that Ning Xi was still alive.

After all, that accident happened too suddenly, and there were too many loopholes in his hasty handling.

These loopholes are indeed invisible to ordinary people, but for people like Gu Tingjun and Mu Qianxue who are familiar with him and Ning Xi, after careful investigation, many places cannot be explained.

Sure enough, I still can't hide it from him.

Quan Lukun suddenly understood something, and asked, "So you were kicked out on purpose, right?"

From the aggressive acquisition of the Ning family and the name change to Yixi, to the wedding with Ning Xi's photos in public despite everyone's opposition, and then being kicked out of the Gu family by the uncle of the Gu family who seized power.

He must have done all of this to get rid of the Gu family and find Ning Xi.

In fact, as Quan Lukun guessed, this series of events was Gu Tingjun's plan.

It was precisely because he wanted to leave the Gu family that Gu Tingjun gave the Yixi Group as a dowry to Quan Lukun.

It was precisely because he wanted to force Ning Xi to show up that he lived on the street, deliberately stealing people's leftovers when he spotted the reporter.

He was betting that Ning Xi was still alive, betting that she would not stand by and see him in such a state of desperation, living a life that was worse than a dog.

Obviously, the big gamble he made on his own future paid off.

Ning Xi appeared, although she appeared in the image of another man, but it proved that she was still alive, and it also proved that she still couldn't let go of her.

That's enough, being able to stay by her side, no matter what your status is, is enough.
