She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

Chapter 40: Sickly and Gentle White Moonlight (Original Story Extra 1)

It was late at night, and Gu Zhixi sat at the dining table, watching over a table full of untouched food.

Seeing her dejected look, Sister Zhao tried to persuade her, "Madam, the master is busy with work and will inevitably have to work overtime. Why don't you eat something first? If the master wants to eat when he comes back, I will make it for him."

I really can't understand why the rich people would go to such lengths to hire her to cook for a high salary, but instead of enjoying her life every day, Mrs. Zhou insists on learning how to cook and make soup from her.

Sister Zhao is really worried that Mrs. Zhou will fire her once she has learned it. This amount of money is far from enough to enroll in an advanced training course. Could it be that rich people are so stingy?

But as time went on, Sister Zhao discovered that Mrs. Zhou didn't seem to have any intention of firing her, so she felt relieved.

Gu Zhixi pursed her lips, picked up the phone on the dining table and checked the time. It was eleven twenty-seven.

In another thirty-three minutes, her and Zhou Yejin's wedding anniversary will be over.

In the past three years, Zhou Yejin has disappeared on this day every year and has not returned home at night.

Gu Zhixi knew that he went to the hospital to take care of his white moonlight Shen Weicang.

In fact, not just on the anniversary day, in the three years of marriage, Gu Zhixi had very few opportunities to see him.

Zhou Yejin either lived in his own apartment, slept in the company, or went to the hospital. As the legitimate Mrs. Zhou, she might see her husband less often than Zhou Yejin's assistant.

As it was almost twelve o'clock, Gu Zhixi stood up from the dining table dejectedly and went upstairs to her room.

She looked at the chat interface between herself and Zhou Yejin. The screen was full of messages she sent. Zhou Yejin either didn't reply, or even if she did, it was just a cold one or two words.

Perhaps this marriage was wrong from the beginning.

The sound of a car engine was heard outside the villa. Gu Zhixi suddenly turned over and sat up from the bed, then trotted out of the bedroom and went downstairs.

Just as she reached the last few steps of the stairs, she saw Assistant Qian helping Zhou Yejin, who was staggering a little, to the sofa in the living room.

Seeing Gu Zhixi walking over, Assistant Qian said in a businesslike tone, "Madam, Mr. Zhou was in a bad mood today, so he drank too much. There was no one to take care of him at Pinmu Apartment, so I took the initiative to bring him here."

Gu Zhixi nodded: "I understand, it's getting late, you should go back, you've worked hard."

Assistant Qian nodded and left.

Looking at Zhou Yejin lying on the sofa with her eyes closed, Gu Zhixi sighed.

She went to the kitchen to cook some sobering soup, leaned over to wake him up, but heard Zhou Yejin mumbling to herself.

Gu Zhixi didn't hear clearly, so she leaned closer to listen in confusion.

"gray......"

These two words were like two sharp knives piercing Gu Zhixi's heart, and her face turned extremely pale in an instant.

She originally thought that since he had returned here today, he should have let go of the past to some extent, but she didn't expect the facts to be laid out so vividly in front of her.

Zhou Yejin never forgot Shen Weicang for a moment.

Gu Zhixi couldn't help thinking with a bitter feeling in her heart, if Zhou Yejin hadn't been drunk today, he wouldn't have come back here, right?

Perhaps because he drank too much, Zhou Yejin frowned uncomfortably.

Gu Zhixi came back to her senses, gently helped him sit up, picked up a spoonful of the sobering soup on the coffee table, felt the temperature, and made sure it was not hot before feeding it to his mouth.

Zhou Yejin drank it subconsciously.

Gu Zhixi was about to continue feeding when Zhou Yejin suddenly opened his eyes.

Ever since Shen Weicang fell into a coma, he has not worn glasses again. At this moment, his starry eyes were staring at her coldly, as if she was his greatest enemy in his life.

Gu Zhixi was hurt by his gaze and stood there in a daze for a long time without moving.

Zhou Yejin stood up, tugged at his loose tie, and threw it aside.

"How will you be here?"

Perhaps because of the alcohol, his voice was a little hoarse, but it diluted the indifference in his tone a little.

Gu Zhixi put the bowl back on the coffee table, pursed her lips, and explained: "Assistant Qian sent you back here. I saw that you were really uncomfortable, so I made you some hangover soup."

Zhou Yejin realized that this was not his apartment. Without saying another word, he turned around and walked out.

"Ye Jin!"

Gu Zhixi suddenly rushed over from behind him and hugged his waist, choking and saying, "Ye Jin, today is our wedding anniversary, please don't leave, okay?"

"marry?"

Zhou Yejin directly pried her hands apart, turned around and looked at her sarcastically: "Have you forgotten how this marriage came about? You still have the nerve to talk to me about your wedding anniversary?!"

The corners of his eyes were red, and his hands were so strong that he threw her to the ground and watched her fall beside the sofa: "Gu Zhixi, you are so disgusting."

Gu Zhixi laughed softly, but her laughter was filled with tears: "Didn't you agree to this marriage? Now you blame me for forcing you, why didn't you reject me back then?!"

Zhou Yejin seemed to be completely enraged by these words. He stepped forward, grabbed her collar, and pulled her up from the ground. His angry expression even made his handsome face look a little distorted.

"Miss Gu, you are a forgetful person. It's only been three years and you have completely forgotten all the bad things you did. I will help you recall them."

As he spoke, he grabbed Gu Zhixi and walked upstairs. He kicked open the bedroom door. The loud noise made Gu Zhixi's heart tremble.

"This agreement is clearly written," Zhou Yejin threw two pieces of light paper in front of her, "In such a critical situation, what choice do I have other than to agree?"

Gu Zhixi raised her hand and picked up the agreement, then looked at Zhou Yejin provocatively: "You don't have to accept or agree to it, as long as you can watch your lover die."

This is what Gu Zhixi said when she threatened Zhou Yejin to marry her.

The anger in Zhou Yejin's eyes became even stronger.

Gu Zhixi continued to add fuel to the fire: "If it weren't for me, Shen Weicang would have died that year. Now she can lie in the hospital and spend money every day. Shouldn't she thank me?"

Her voice gradually became frantic: "If there was no Gu Group, how long do you think you could have lasted?! You can have your current status and position, isn't it because of me, Gu Zhixi, and my Gu Group?!"

"Unrepentant."

Zhou Yejin looked at her coldly as she went crazy, then turned and walked out.

"Ye Jin!"

Gu Zhixi rushed over and hugged his waist again: "Please don't leave, okay? Today is our wedding anniversary. We are husband and wife. How could it come to this?"

Zhou Yejin impatiently pulled her away again and continued to walk out.

"I beg you, Ye Jin, can't you stay even for one night?"

Gu Zhixi's face was covered with tears, her hair was disheveled, and she pleaded without any decency, but Zhou Yejin was not moved at all.

"Looking at you for one more moment makes me feel sick."

As soon as he finished speaking, his cell phone rang. Zhou Yejin answered the call immediately after seeing the incoming call. His voice did not express any impatience or disgust towards Gu Zhixi, but was full of worry: "What's wrong?"

Gu Zhixi knew that the call was from the nurse who was taking care of Shen Weicang at Puzhong Hospital.

After a few seconds, Zhou Yejin's expression became anxious and surprised, and he repeatedly confirmed: "Really?"

At the same time, walk out.

It was a long time after Zhou Yejin left that Gu Zhixi laughed foolishly, but tears kept flowing down.

Her cell phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Gu Zhiyan.

[The doctor said that Cang Cang is likely to wake up soon. You should prepare and divorce Zhou Yejin.]
