C248 Do You Understand?
Early in the morning.
Director Jiang and his wife waited in the dining room for a long time but did not see Jiang Juan and Gu Qingyou. Mrs Jiang immediately asked, "Butler, is Jun Er and Qingyou still up?"
The butler smiled, "Madam, they are not in a hurry anyway. They might still be sleeping!"
Hearing this, Mrs Jiang also had a somewhat embarrassed smile on her face,. . . "That's true. After they get married, they only have these two days of peace. Then let them sleep for a while more. Don't disturb them. "
"En. "
" Then let's eat breakfast! " Mrs Jiang looked at Director Jiang gently.
Director Jiang nodded.
At this time, Gu Qingyou walked into the restaurant and respectfully called out as usual, "Dad, Mom, good morning. "
Mrs Jiang was just about to pick up the tableware when she saw Gu Qingyou and immediately put down the tableware in her hands and intimately walked to Gu Qingyou's side. "You are up?"
"Sorry, I am late today to accompany you guys for breakfast. " Gu Qingyou said.
Mrs Jiang held Gu Qingyou and walked towards the dining table. "It's alright. It's also rare for you to sleep late. "
Gu Qingyou sat down beside Mrs Jiang. Her face was slightly haggard.
Director Jiang noticed Gu Qingyou's complexion and asked caringly, "Qingyou, did you sleep well last night?"
When Director Jiang asked this question, Mrs Jiang gave Director Jiang a look of complaint. "Why can't I sleep well? It's just that I slept a little late. "
Only then did Director Jiang remember Mrs Jiang's meaning. He could not help but smile and did not ask Gu Qingyou anymore.
After Mrs Jiang instructed the butler to prepare breakfast for Gu Qingyou, she asked lovingly, "Has Jun Er not woken up yet?"
Gu Qingyou stared blankly at the basin of white butterfly orchids in the middle of the dining table. Her pursed lips did not open.
Mrs Jiang realized that something was not right and slightly frowned, "Qingyou. . . "
"Boss Jiang!"
The housekeeper called out respectfully and interrupted Mrs Jiang's question that was about to open her mouth. Mrs Jiang then saw Jiang Juan's deep gaze fall on Gu Qingyou who did not look back at him at that moment.
In an instant, from Jiang Juan's gaze, Director Jiang and his wife and butler had an ominous premonition.
Director Jiang broke the silence in the restaurant and said, "Quickly sit down. . . It is not early anymore. Have breakfast. You are also going to the airport. "
Jiang Juan's gaze then shifted away from Gu Qingyou and sat alone at the side of the dining table.
Mrs Jiang nudged Director Jiang under the table and said softly, "What is going on? Wasn't everything fine last night?"
Director Jiang gave Mrs Jiang a deep look and indicated that Mrs Jiang should not speak anymore. Mrs Jiang nodded.
The few of them ate quietly and occasionally there was a slight sound of tableware hitting each other. However, the atmosphere of the meal today was slightly heavy and it was obvious that it came from Gu Qingyou who did not communicate with Jiang Juan at all.
Jiang Juan suddenly stopped eating and his deep eyes stared straight at Gu Qingyou.
Of course, Gu Qingyou could feel Jiang Juan's gaze, but she ignored it and continued to eat breakfast, as if she could not feel Jiang Juan's gaze at all.
Director Jiang held his wife's hand under the table and said to Jiang Juan and Gu Qingyou, "You guys eat slowly. We will go and see if Mu Mu has woken up. . . " It was the weekend and Mu Mu did not go to school.
Mrs Jiang did not have time to react before Director Jiang pulled her up and left the restaurant.
Outside the restaurant, Director Jiang said seriously, "Can't you see that Jun Er has something to say to Qingyou alone?"
Mrs Jiang was stunned, "Really?"
Director Jiang sighed, "Last night, the two of them definitely had an argument. This morning, it will only be one in the front and one in the back. "
"I know, but it shouldn't be a big deal. . . " After that, Mrs Jiang started to worry. "Could it be that Yu Mei's matter hasn't been resolved yet?"
"I don't think it's about You Mei. " Director Jiang said seriously, "I heard Ye Shuo mention that You Mei has been resting at home for the past few days and did not do anything. Qingyou and Jun Er have already reached a consensus on the matter of You Mei. "
"Then why did they fight?" Mrs Jiang's loving face was full of sorrow.
Director Jiang looked at the two people in the restaurant who still did not interact. He sighed softly and hugged Mrs Jiang's shoulder. "Let's go. We will naturally know why later. "
. . .
Gu Qingyou seemed to have never felt Jiang Juan's gaze. After finishing breakfast, she got up and prepared to leave.
Because of Gu Qingyou's indifference, Jiang Juan's expression was cold and his thin lips parted, "I can't understand. What exactly do you want?"
Facing Jiang Juan's question, Gu Qingyou's body froze in front of the restaurant's door.
Jiang Juan got up from the dining table and put his hands in his pocket. He restored his arrogance and arrogance as he focused on her slender figure. "I gave you a life where you don't have to worry about food and clothing. I also gave you the love you wanted. . . What else do you have that you are not satisfied with? "
A trace of bitterness suddenly appeared in Gu Qingyou's throat as she slowly closed her eyes.
She could not believe that he actually asked her what exactly she wanted and where exactly she was not satisfied.
He lied to her. . .
He had been lying to her feelings all this time. Did he not have the slightest bit of shame and self-blame?
Suddenly, Gu Qingyou did not want to talk to Jiang Juan anymore. She felt that Jiang Juan was not the only person she wanted to talk to. Her chest was throbbing with pain. If she continued to talk to him, she would definitely feel even more pain.
Unfortunately, Jiang Juan understood Gu Qingyou's thoughts. His tall and straight figure was already standing in front of her like a cold statue, making it impossible for her to cross or move away.
"Qingyou, I don't want to argue with you, and I think there is no need for us to argue about my past, but why are you so stubborn?" Jiang Juan frowned with slight displeasure. "Cherish the present and work together to create a beautiful future. Isn't this what we should do now?"
Gu Qingyou's nose was sour as she slowly raised her red eyes. "You don't love me. You can tell me from the beginning. Why did you lie to me?" She did not use a blaming tone and instead spoke as calmly as usual.
Jiang Juan seemed to be very puzzled about this question. The frown between his brows deepened. "Now, do you think it's important for us to continue struggling with the word 'love'?"
Gu Qingyou opened her eyes, and an even more intense pain came from her chest. "You shouldn't have lied to me. You should have told me the truth from the beginning. " She said slowly.
Jiang Juan let out a long sigh and gently held Gu Qingyou's thin shoulders. He said earnestly, "We have been very happy from the beginning to the end. We have a common child. Why should we separate because of the word 'love'?"
Gu Qingyou smiled gently and closed her eyes. "I really don't know how you did it. You don't love a person, but you can marry and have children with this person. "
"I don't need 'love' anymore, I want a wife. " Jiang Junchen said with a solemn expression. "If you insist on getting 'love' from me and being with me, then we will never be together. . . "
"Why?" Gu Qingyou muttered in a low voice. "Because you will never let Su Mo go, right?"
Jiang Juan looked at her. "I don't have Su Mo in my head right now, but I don't have the word 'love' either. "
Gu Qingyou's voice trembled slightly. "So, you finally admit that the 'I love you' you said to me was all your well-thought acting?"
"What exactly do you want me to do?" Jiang Juan was puzzled as he tightly pinched the space between his eyebrows. "I don't want to get involved in the word 'love'. Do you understand?"
"I don't understand. " Gu Qingyou shook her head blankly. "Since you don't want to get involved again, why do you still want to pester me after three years?" She clearly knew that she had always longed for someone whom she loved and loved.
"I want to take care of you, I want to give you a life where you don't have to worry about food and clothing, I want you to be happy. . . " Jiang Juan looked deeply into her clear pupils.0
"I don't need your sympathy. " Gu Qingyou struggled to break free from Jiang Juan's hands.
Jiang Juan paused for a few seconds and retracted his hands. "This is not sympathy. . . In my heart, you and Mu Mu and my parents are the closest people to me. Even if we separate today, I will still take care of you. "
Gu Qingyou looked at him.
He stood in front of her, seemingly very close, but very far away.
Only at this moment did she know that their hearts had never been close.
"I know that it's my honor to be treated as a family member by you, but I don't need this honor. " Adjusting her breathing, she said bitterly and firmly. "Even if you are kind, you should ask me if I need your 'help', not lie to me, and then tell me that it's actually a white lie. "
"Tell me, when I was hypnotized that day, How did I answer you? " Jiang Junchen looked down at her. " Maybe that was the answer I gave you after I got rid of Su Mo. But those were my real answers. I believe the answers I gave you. It is definitely not as simple as treating you as family. I am very sure. You are the most important person in my life!"
"Because you 'forgot' Su Mo, I became the most important person in your life. . . " Gu Qingyou held her breath. She continued to speak. "If I let you recover all your memories of Su Mo, let Pei Juan ask me the question I asked you that day. Perhaps every word you answer is love. . . And the answers to those questions you gave me, if I don't say it, it might just be a lie. Even if it's true, it can only mean that I'm the person you've always wanted to spend the rest of your life with. And not your lover. "
The two of them suddenly fell silent.
"I don't know what I should do now. . . " Gu Qingyou was the first to break the silence. "You have already 'forgotten' the love you had for Su Mo but you also did not fall in love with me. This means that Su Mo is not standing between us. It is impossible for me to make you fall in love with me. . . "
"I have already said that it is not that you are not good enough, nor that you are not attractive to me, but that I cannot fall in love with another person. Even if the person in front of me is more outstanding than you and is more attractive than you, I will not fall in love with this person. . . "
Gu Qingyou interrupted Jiang Juan's words. "That is because you love Su Mo, so no matter how good or attractive the person is in front of you, you will not fall in love. . . "
