C55 She Wanted to Leave Tomorrow
Of course, Gu Qingyou hoped to keep a distance from Jiang Juan in private. But Jiang Juan came back very late every day. Even if she fell asleep on the sofa, she would wake up in the morning beside him.
It had been like this for the past few days, so Gu Qingyou did not do anything unnecessary. At night, she obediently went to sleep on the bed. No matter what, she still had some trust in his character. At least, after she told him not to fulfill the agreement of giving birth to the child, he did not do anything excessive to her.
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed. Tomorrow would be the day Gu Qingyou gave Jiang Juan an answer. Gu Qingyou already knew what to do in her heart, but she still had insomnia the previous night.
Jiang Juan was a very light sleeper. At night, she turned her head to the side and opened her eyes to him. She didn't dare to make any movements, afraid that it would affect his sleep.
In the dark night where only the light from outside the garden shone in, she quietly watched his side profile when he fell asleep.
His appearance was really perfect. He very well inherited the advantages of Director Jiang and Mrs Jiang's appearance. His eyelashes were very long, his nose was very high, and his lips were thin.
He was so handsome, just like his name.
If he normally did not use a serious and cold face to show his face to others, he would give people the impression that he was gentle and refined.
So, what kind of person was he?
He was unfathomable, and she couldn't figure it out at all. She didn't even know whether he was a good person or a bad person until now.
She didn't know if what he said on the beach was true or false. She didn't know if he really wanted to develop with her in the future.
However, even if she knew what he was thinking, it was impossible for her to be with him.
He was the high and mighty CEO of the C City's number one group. He had a good family background and upbringing. She was just a girl with an ordinary background. She even had a mother who was addicted to gambling and drugs. If it wasn't for the fact that she just happened to look like Xia Qingchen, she probably would never have interacted with someone as rich as him. They were simply not compatible from the start. Even if he accepted her, Director Jiang and his wife would not accept her either.
Also, he loved Xia Qingchen that much. It was impossible for him to really put Xia Qingchen down. After all, after so many years of struggling, he still did not let go of her. If he could really let go of her, he would have let go of her in the past.
In the depths of his heart, he would always leave the most important position to Xia Qingchen. Even if he was really tired and moved by other women, it would still be temporary.
Therefore, she needed to know her own limitations. She didn't need to get involved in this mess.
Fate came and went. Since there was a huge gap between them, they should live in their respective worlds.
The next day.
When Jiang Juan got up, he did not ask Gu Qingyou for an answer. Gu Qingyou chose to remain silent.
She only thought that he did not ask her. But if he asked, she would answer him.
Jiang Juan went to the company after breakfast. Mrs Jiang learned that Jiang Juan took her to the beach yesterday. Even though she had told Mrs Jiang that she had used Jiang Juan's suit to cover herself tightly. Mrs Jiang still wanted to bring her to the hospital for a checkup. She was afraid that her postpartum body would invade the cold air and affect her body in the future.
Gu Qingyou could not do anything to Mrs Jiang. They did not expect that when they were about to go to the hospital, Boss Xia and his wife would suddenly come to visit.
Boss Xia and his wife naturally came to Jiang's Mansion in the name of visiting her. Director Jiang and his wife felt very guilty and blamed themselves for not protecting her well.
Boss Xia was still alright, but Mrs. Xia's trick was very realistic. She blamed Gu Qingyou for not telling them such a big thing, so they only knew about it after she was discharged from the hospital. Her words were full of heartache.
She could only choose to cooperate and try her best to comfort her "mother. " Then Mrs. Xia followed her to the room on the second floor where she and Jiang Juan were talking.
Just like last time, the moment Mrs. Xia entered the room, her loving face disappeared without a trace, leaving only her face full of disdain and disgust. Especially when she saw the pure white double bed in the room, it was hard to see the contortion on her face.
"Pack up. Qingchen's legs were almost healed. When we find a time, you can exchange your identity with her. " Mrs. Xia said coldly.
Mrs. Xia did not ask about the child at all and did not mention to ask her to help Jiang Juan carry the child again. Hence, Mrs. Xia indirectly admitted that her child was persecuted by Xia Qingchen behind the scenes.
"Why are you looking at me? Did you hear what I said?" As she did not get Gu Qingyou's reply and instead felt the coldness in Gu Qingyou's eyes, Mrs. Xia stared at her and said.
Since Jiang Juan's matter had come to an end, Gu Qingyou took a light breath and lowered her eyes and said slowly, "When Miss Xia comes back, I will change my identity with Miss Xia. "
"Miss Xia?" Mrs. Xia raised her eyebrows in disdain, "Why do you call my daughter like this? Could it be that you already feel that you are the 'Mrs Jiang'?"
Gu Qingyou raised her head and calmly said, "Madam, do you need me to change the way I address Miss Xia and repeat what I just said?"
Mrs. Xia saw Gu Qingyou's neither servile nor overbearing manner and she snorted and continued, "My daughter will be coming back from N City in two days. Prepare yourself!"
"I will. " Gu Qingyou's tone was still calm.
Mrs. Xia did not say anything else and left the room.
Gu Qingyou did not follow Mrs. Xia downstairs. She quietly walked to the window of the room and looked at herself on the glass curtain for a long time.
Was she finally going to exchange her identity with Xia Qingchen?
This was really good.
This day had finally arrived.
Every day, she would wear clothes that were unsuitable for her, put on makeup that she didn't like, and make an expression that she wasn't used to. She was already tired of such a strange self.
She would set a date for her departure with Jiang Juan tonight. She wanted everything to return to the starting point. She wanted the two of them who should not have interacted with each other to return to being strangers in this world.
Tonight, Boss Xia and his wife stayed in Jiang's Mansion for dinner. It was rare for Jiang Juan to come home at dinner time.
Gu Qingyou really had no way to continue playing the role of mother and daughter with Mrs. Xia tonight. She secretly gave Jiang Juan a look before dinner.
Jiang Juan was such a smart person. He hugged her in front of Director Jiang and Boss Xia. He said gently, "If you are tired, go and sleep for a while. You can eat when you are hungry. "
Gu Qingyou felt relieved. She tiptoed and kissed Jiang Juan on the cheek. She apologized to Director Jiang and Boss Xia and returned to her room.
Mrs. Xia saw Gu Qingyou kissing Jiang Juan and her eyes seemed to hide a knife. But she did not dare to act up in front of Jiang Juan. She maintained the tenderness and kindness on her face.
Gu Qingyou returned to her room but did not read or rest. She took out the agreement that she and Jiang Juan had signed from the drawer in the bedside table.
She thought that if possible, she would want to leave tomorrow.
