To look deeply into

Chapter 12

"Aren't you going back?" Qiao Mo gently stroked Jiuyue's back.

Gu Qingsheng looked at the person who had wrapped the blanket around herself and deliberately paused. "Are you inviting me to stay?"

"…" Qiao Mo pursed her lips and looked at him. "I don't need a bodyguard yet."

"Yes …" He moved closer to her. Qiao Mo was curled up in a corner of the sofa and had nowhere to run.

Jiuyue quickly jumped off the sofa and went to the balcony.

He was very close, so close that she could see any expression on his face.

"You just lack a boyfriend," he said.

Qiao Mo wrapped the blanket tighter around herself and said, "I don't agree."

She answered quickly and without hesitation. Gu Qingsheng frowned. "One reason."

"Erm …" Qiao Mo lowered her head and thought about it, but she couldn't come up with an answer.

She looked very cute when she was thinking seriously. Gu Qingsheng didn't care if he had a status or not. After all, he had hugged and kissed her. How could the person he had set his mind on fly away?

He looked at his watch. It was nine o 'clock. It was time for her to rest.

The person in front of her suddenly stood up. Qiao Mo looked up at him. He had his back to the light and cast his shadow over her. "It's time to rest. Goodnight."

"Goodnight."

He walked to the door. Qiao Mo followed behind him. She had to lock the door after he left.

He changed his shoes and straightened up.

Qiao Mo kept looking at him without saying a word. She was waiting for him to leave. Gu Qingsheng suddenly turned around and pulled her into his arms. Qiao Mo leaned against his chest and breathed softly.

After a while, she heard his voice above her head. "I'm waiting for a status, Qiao Mo."

She blushed. He paused and continued, "Also, next time you're dressed properly before opening the door. Of course, if it's just me, you can do whatever you want."

Gu Qingsheng was pushed out by Qiao Mo. Before he could steady himself, the door behind him slammed shut.

When he entered his house, he glanced at the opposite door. His gaze fell on the fingerprint lock, thinking that he would ask her to record his fingerprint next time.

Of course, if he had known that Qiao Mo would be sleeping at midnight as usual, he would not have left so early.

On Saturdays, Qiao Mo usually slept until she woke up naturally. Liang Qingqing knew her well and planned to visit her in the afternoon.

At noon, Yuan Jiacheng brought his fiancée to Qiao Zhi's house. Liang Qingqing was just preparing to cook when she saw the two of them. She threw her apron on Qiao Zhi and said, "Don't you know that I'm preparing for pregnancy?

Go and cook. "

Qiao Zhi naturally knew why his wife was angry. He took the apron and walked to the kitchen. When he passed by Yuan Jiacheng, he said, "Sit down first. I'll settle accounts with you later!"

Yuan Jiacheng had been treated this way for a long time, but he did not take it to heart. After all, the two of them had played together since they were young and had quarreled and fought many times.

His fiancée was the daughter of the Director of the Public Security Bureau in City S. She was delicate and pretty, slightly thin, and not very tall. She looked like an underage girl.

Liang Qingqing walked out with two glasses of water. She placed them on the table and glanced at the girl.

She immediately held Liang Qingqing's arm and smiled gently. "Sister-in-law, don't bother. Let's just sit down."

Liang Qingqing had always been protective. She moved her arm away from her and did not avoid anyone. She said bluntly, "We're not married yet. If you get used to calling me that, it won't be easy to change if something goes wrong in the future."

Yuan Jiacheng frowned. Qiao Zhi walked out of the kitchen. He did not say anything and just held his fiancée's hand.

Qiao Zhi said, "We don't have enough rice at home. Let's go out to eat."

Yuan Jiacheng stood up and said, "If that's the case, I won't trouble your family. I'm just here to inform you. After all, we grew up together. Please do me the honor of attending my wedding."

Liang Qingqing stood at the door of the bedroom and said sharply, "Do you dare to invite Qiao Mo?

Young Master Yuan? "

The girl next to him could not hold it in anymore. Her tone was gentle but unforgiving. She said, "Logically speaking, with more than twenty years of friendship, he should attend the wedding even if he didn't need to be invited. Why are we here to invite him, but instead of giving him our blessings, there's still a friend who wants to tear us apart?"

"That's because you have to see if you can get my blessings first."

"What can I do?"

Qiao Zhi wanted to stop Liang Qingqing. After all, he knew how she felt. He was afraid that she would not be able to accept Qiao Mo's grievances, but it was too late.

Liang Qingqing said, "You used Yuan Jiacheng's name to humiliate Qiao Mo and even wanted my blessings. I didn't hit you because of Yuan Jiacheng!"

The girl's face instantly turned pale. Yuan Jiacheng narrowed his eyes and looked at her for a moment. However, he still protected her and said, "I don't need you to teach my woman a lesson."

Since they had already shed all pretense of cordiality, Qiao Zhi did not pretend to be a good person. He was famous for doting on his sister. He said sternly, "My woman is not yours either.

Yuan Jiacheng, keep her in check. If she causes trouble for Qiao Mo again, don't even think about holding your wedding in S City! "

The few of them left on bad terms.

Downstairs, Yuan Jiacheng walked quickly. She practically ran in front of him and said, "Are you angry because of her?"

He did not reply.

He even walked around her and got into the car first. She sat in the front passenger seat and said, "Yuan Jiacheng, if you could forget about her, I wouldn't have acted like a shrew. If you didn't give me a sense of security, I wouldn't have done such a thing. I, Mu Tian, was also spoiled since I was young!"

"I told you from the start that I won't give you any feelings." He said emotionlessly. His words were as hurtful as ever.

"But, Yuan Jiacheng, I'm pregnant. Even if I don't think about myself, I have to give my child a happy family. I can't accept that my child's father has someone else in his heart."

Yuan Jiacheng was shocked. He immediately calmed down and punched the steering wheel. Mu Tian had tears in her eyes. She gripped her skirt tightly and did not want to let the tears fall.

After a moment, she said, "Forget it. Let's go to the hospital. Since he can't get what a child deserves, let's not let him be born."

Yuan Jiacheng turned to look at her. His pale face was filled with despair. He started the car. His cold voice was filled with helplessness and compromise. "Give him the right to be born."

Mu Tian looked at him with a happy expression. "Thank you."

Gu Qingsheng had finished his work in the company in the morning. He was on his way to the parking lot when he called her.

A lazy voice came from the other end. "Hello?"

He could imagine her lying on the bed and answering the phone without even opening her eyes. She must be as lazy as a cat.

He slowly tempted her. "Are you still sleeping?"

"Yes."

"I'll cook for you. What's the password to your house?"

"I forgot."

"…" Gu Qingsheng smiled helplessly. It was normal to forget the password after using so many fingerprints.

He was about to wake her up and open the door when the person said a string of numbers to herself. Then she said, "I want to eat cake."

"Okay."

Qiao Mo turned over. Just as she was about to go back to sleep, she felt that she couldn't move anymore. She kicked the blanket with her feet and opened her eyes.

"Ah!" Qiao Mo suddenly woke up. She asked the man sitting in front of her, "Why are you here?"

Gu Qingsheng narrowed his eyes and looked at her white and smooth shoulders. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "You slept until noon, little lazy cat."

Qiao Mo saw him as soon as she opened her eyes. Other than being surprised, she was actually a little happy. It was as if he had been by her side all night.

After changing her clothes and washing up, Qiao Mo walked to the kitchen. She saw his tall back busy in the small kitchen. It was unexpectedly harmonious.

Gu Qingsheng came out with a plate of food. When he saw her, he put the plate on the table and walked towards her.

Qiao Mo wanted to see what dishes he had cooked. She had just taken a step when he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back to the wall.

He put his hand on her waist and rested his forehead on hers. He looked at her and asked, "Aren't you going to give me a reward?"

Her eyelashes fluttered slightly. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's, but her mouth was unforgiving. "You're still under observation."

Hearing her soft protest, Gu Qingsheng chuckled softly in her ear. It seemed to come from his chest.

She couldn't help but shiver.

He felt it. He chuckled softly. His hot breath blew on her skin, making her heart itch.

Qiao Mo put her hand on his chest and raised her voice. "Gu Qingsheng!"

"I worked all morning and came to cook for you. Aren't you going to reward me?"

"Why are you acting like a child? You want a reward."

"I'm a businessman."

"…"

His kiss landed on her ear. Qiao Mo blushed and pushed him away. "Gu Qingsheng, you …"

"I want a reward." His muffled voice came from beside her ear.

He finally kissed her lips and asked her for a "reward". He savored it carefully. It was sweet and lingering.

In the end, Qiao Mo ate in his arms. He laughed at her like a child. She even needed someone to watch her eat.

She glared at him and pouted her lips slightly. She wanted to show the culprit who made her like this.

"Okay, it's my fault. Let's eat."

After eating two mouthfuls, Qiao Mo got up from his arms and sat on the chair next to him. "I'm not feeling well."

Gu Qingsheng let her be.

After eating, Qiao Mo insisted on washing the dishes. Although there was a dishwasher, she still cleaned up in the kitchen.

Walking out of the kitchen, Qiao Mo saw the tall man half lying in the rocking chair on the balcony. The afternoon sun was bright, making him blurry.

She could imagine their life after they got together. She would sleep in on Saturday mornings, and he would take care of her little habits. After cooking in the kitchen, he would gently kiss her awake.

She would thoughtfully clean the kitchen, and he would fall asleep on the rocking chair on the balcony with a newspaper in his hand.

Perhaps in the winter, she would cover him with a blanket and wait quietly by his side for the sunset.

How comfortable.

It seemed acceptable.

"Qiao Mo?"

Qiao Mo came out of her little world. He was already in front of her. He gently flicked her forehead and said, "Why are you in a daze? You didn't even know someone was knocking on the door."

"Huh?" She was still in the same spot, but Gu Qingsheng had already opened the door.

The two people at the door looked at each other. Liang Qingqing looked at the floor. After making sure that they were on the right floor, she asked carefully, "Is Qiao Mo here?"

"Yes." Gu Qingsheng stepped aside, and Liang Qingqing walked in.

Only then did Qiao Mo react. She looked at Liang Qingqing in surprise. "Why are you here?"

Liang Qingqing ignored the extra person at the door. She took her hand and checked her up and down. "Are you okay? Yuan Jiacheng brought his girlfriend over just now. I scolded her to vent your anger."

"Huh?" Qiao Mo frowned. "Actually, it's not a big deal. I didn't get hurt or anything."

"I just don't like her. Speaking of which, what disgusting thing did she do?"

"It's nothing. She just sent over the things I gave Yuan Jiacheng in the past, and some things I left in his house when I was young."

The two of them didn't notice that the man at the door had already darkened. Especially when he heard Liang Qingqing's last sentence. "How can I tolerate that? Even if our things are smashed or broken, it's not up to her to return them to you."

"That's enough." Qiao Mo reached out to pinch her face and comforted her. "My anger has been resolved by you."

Liang Qingqing tugged at her again, her eyes full of admiration. "You don't know how handsome your brother was back then."

"Qiao Mo."

Hearing Gu Qingsheng call him, Qiao Mo turned around. "What's wrong?"

He didn't look good, and his tone was different from before. "Come find me later."

"Oh, okay."
