The actress traveled through the drama, went crazy online, and killed the male lead every day

Gu Zhen's fingers fell on the gemstone. The light from the curved balcony fell on the gemstone, reflecting brilliant light. "You know I'm an illegitimate child, right?"

Su Lingzhi was a little cautious and nodded.

"My maternal grandparents were from Anzhou. They fled to Jiangcheng with my great-grandfather to make a living. They started out in the food business and later opened a department store. The predecessors of Jiangcheng's three largest department stores today were all from my maternal grandparents. My mom is an only child and was raised innocently. She met my dad when she was studying abroad and started dating. She lived with my dad in a passionate relationship while in college until she graduated from graduate school. My dad finished his studies before her and returned to China a year earlier. They started a long-distance relationship. In my mom's last year of graduate school, my dad flew abroad every month to reunite with her. She was pregnant with me when she graduated. She returned home happily, wanting to give my dad a surprise, but she didn't expect to run into my dad's wedding by chance."

Su Lingzhi, "...Boss Gu is such a jerk!"

"Is this a scumbag?" Gu Zhen chuckled softly, his smile was very cold. Su Lingzhi gently held his hand, interlocked his fingers, and silently comforted him, "I'm a little hungry."

She changed the subject very gently, not wanting to touch upon his scar.

"What do you want to eat?" It was already past midnight, but no matter what Gu Zhen wanted to eat, it would not be a problem, after all, he had the money.

"Let me take you out for a midnight snack."

The two went back to the banquet hall and said hello. Jiang Zongnan and Jian Yuxing were not there. Xu Wanqing said that Mr. Jiang had drunk too much, so Jian Yuxing took him to the bathroom. Gu Zhen didn't care. He said something to them and took Su Lingzhi away.

As soon as he left, the atmosphere became more lively.

Su Lingzhi took Gu Zhen to a street in the university town. She bought a thin shawl to cover her fair and beautiful shoulders, and took Gu Zhen to the bustling night market for a midnight snack.

“Did you study at a university abroad?”

"Yes!"

He curiously followed Su Lingzhi in the bustling atmosphere. The night market street was really rich in variety, with a variety of snacks from all over the country. Pancakes, spicy hot pot, hot and sour noodles, grilled oysters, crayfish, hand-made lemon tea, various desserts, milk tea, etc.

Gu Zhen is such a picky eater, so Su Lingzhi certainly didn't bring him here to eat snacks. It would be outrageous to write such a thing as bringing a domineering CEO to eat spicy hot pot in a novel.

She took Gu Zhen through many twists and turns and finally entered a porridge shop.

This is a very famous porridge shop. Su Lingzhi couldn't forget it after Zhao Xuelan brought her here once. There were all kinds of ingredients in the window, including marbled pork, marbled beef, pork intestines, kidneys, etc., which could all be put into the porridge.

Gu Zhen doesn't eat offal, so Su Lingzhi asked for 200g of marbled pork, 200g of pork bones, and 200g of marbled beef and put them all in to cook.

Although the environment was not very good, the restaurant was almost full. Su Lingzhi and Gu Zhen grabbed an empty table, which was right under the pomegranate tree. Su Lingzhi said, "The porridge in this restaurant is especially delicious. You are recovering from your injury, and I also need to nourish my stomach. This is the best midnight snack for us."

Good-looking people like Gu Zhen and Su Lingzhi appeared in the bustling night market, and they got 100% of the attention along the way, especially because they were dressed as if they had just walked on the red carpet. They were really eye-catching. The clerk was stunned and almost smashed a pot of boiling porridge.

"Although the environment is not that great, the taste is really good." Su Lingzhi scalded the dishes and chopsticks with boiling water.

"I'm picky about food. I wasn't raised in luxury. I've been to places with worse environments than this."

Su Lingzhi smiled, "...I understand."

In fact, she didn't quite understand, because Gu Zhen was really too picky about food. Apart from the fact that he was pampered and had a picky personality, she couldn't think of any other reason.

Su Lingzhi stood up to get the lemonade and poured him a glass. When she bent down slightly, the eye-catching jewel necklace fell down, her nobility could not be concealed even in such a mundane environment.

Gu Zhen's eyes fell on the necklace again. Su Lingzhi knew that the necklace was very important to him. She wore it tonight to show off her talent. She took off the necklace and returned it to Gu Zhen, "Keep it."

"Why are you taking it off?" Gu Zhen said, "Just keep it on."

"This is your mother's necklace, how can I wear it?" The necklace felt heavy in the palm of her hand. It was really beautiful, and every diamond surrounding the gem was so dazzling.

"What I give to you is yours." Gu Zhen took a sip of water calmly. The lemon taste was too strong, so he put the cup down again.

"Did you give it to me?"

Isn't this her way of holding the scene?

"Your birthday present!" Gu Zhen said as a matter of course, "What else?"

Su Lingzhi, "..."

A birthday gift of 1.2 million US dollars, a sum she could never earn in her entire life of filming, and he just gave it to her so casually? Su Lingzhi felt it was particularly hot.

"You don't want it?" Gu Zhen's tone rose slightly, seeming confused, but more displeased.

"No!" Su Lingzhi was very sensitive to his emotions. "Such a beautiful jewel necklace is the treasure that every girl dreams of having, but... this is your mother's?"

"Do you dislike being worn by someone else?"

"No, no, am I such an ungrateful person?" Su Lingzhi's eyes widened. "You... you better think about it. I love money very much. What if I pawn it?"

She thought of a question she hadn't thought about for a long time: $1.2 million could kill Gu Zhen three times.

"I'm giving it to you. You can do whatever you want with it." Gu Zhen didn't seem to care. He didn't see how Su Lingzhi liked money. She gave all the money she earned from the films to Zhao Xuelan.

She likes Zhao Xuelan more than money.

"Would you like to think about it again?"

"If you don't like it, give it back!" Gu Zhen said in a slightly cold tone and reached out to take the necklace. In a flash, Su Lingzhi seemed to have opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and he took the necklace back.

"I like it very much." She had a strong premonition that if she returned the necklace, Gu Zhen would be very angry. He had taken great pains to organize such a romantic birthday for her.

She didn't want Gu Zhen to be angry.

"Where's your mother?" Su Lingzhi asked, "Since it's her necklace, will she be unhappy if you give it to someone else?"

"She won't mind." Gu Zhen said calmly, "Even I can't recognize it, let alone a dead thing."

Su Lingzhi, "..."

Damn, she really keeps bringing up things that are irrelevant. I suddenly remembered that Xiang Li once said that Gu Zhen’s mother was in a mental hospital and was a lunatic, and that the madness was passed down to Gu Zhen.

Mr. Gu, what a scumbag!

How could a rich girl with excellent grades and a graduate degree suddenly go crazy? She returned to China pregnant and wanted to marry her lover, but on her first day back she happened to attend her lover's wedding. This was a fatal blow.

So pathetic!

The most pitiful one is Gu Zhen, he is the most innocent.
