Chapter 92 What exactly do you see in me?
"Won't sleep anymore."
Li Xi threw off the covers and got out of bed, muttering as she put on her coat: "Jiang Qingkong's miscarriage is unusual in every way. I have to go to the hospital to ask Jiang Xinghe what happened."
"Let's talk again."
"Since Jiang Xinghe sent Jiang Qingkong to the hospital, it means he didn't want to see that girl die. At this time, he also needs someone to help him."
Gu Zhen reminded Shen He, "Jiang Qingkong's parents will go to the hospital; you don't need to help."
"It's alright." Li Xi had her own plan. She said, "Jiang Qingkong has rare blood type, so she will definitely need a blood transfusion if she has a severe hemorrhage, and I happen to have rare blood type as well."
"If I were to donate blood to her and help her through this difficult time, how do you think Mr. and Mrs. Jiang Zhulang would feel towards me?"
"And what is Jiang Qingkong's attitude?"
When Jiang Qingkong wakes up, she learns that the fake rival she almost drugged and plotted against in the past has actually become the benefactor who saved her life.
She would feel guilty and would try her best to be good to her.
"The Xie family and the Jiang family used to be allies. But once I bring the Jiang family into my camp, they will become a sharp sword to slander the Xie family!"
"So I have to go!"
Seeing that Li Xi was so pleased with herself, Gu Zhen couldn't help but pour cold water on her enthusiasm: "But Xi Xi, have you thought about it? Jiang Qingkong might also die."
"If she dies, all your blood transfusions will have been for nothing."
Upon hearing this, Li Xi fell silent.
She stomped her feet into her black boots, stamped them, and said without looking up, "There is indeed a grudge between Jiang Qingkong and me."
"But it's just some grudges, not serious enough to be a matter of life and death."
"In the end, Jiang Qingkong is just a spoiled and unruly stupid girl! How could someone with her brain possibly discover that I am Xie Xingyun's first love?"
"In my opinion, Xie Jiaoyue secretly told her and then secretly instigated her to drug me."
"That's a sucker who was used as a pawn and treated the other party like a best friend or sister."
“I hope she gets her comeuppance, but I don’t want her to die like this, without knowing why.”
Having made up her mind, Li Xi unplugged her charging phone, grabbed her shoulder bag, and prepared to leave the island and return to the city.
Gu Zhen suddenly grabbed her wrist. "There are no more boats back to the city at this time. Let me change my clothes, and I'll take you back to the city by boat."
"You can drive?" Li Xi looked at Gu Zhen with admiration. "You can even drive a boat?"
Gu Zhen originally wanted to ask the captain to take them back to the city.
But when he met Li Xi's adoring gaze, he was bewitched and nodded slightly, "Yes, I will."
Gu Zhen went to the dressing room to change his clothes.
Li Xi followed him in and leaned against the wardrobe door, asking, "Professor Gu, besides cars and boats, what else can you drive?"
"Can fly a helicopter."
Li Xi: "Amazing!"
"Do you know anything else? Can you operate an excavator?"
Li Xi spoke at length: "When I was a child, I loved watching excavators. Whenever my dad had free time, he would take me to construction sites in the suburbs to watch the excavators work!"
"You know, my favorite commercial when I was a kid was that one..."
"Which school has the best excavation technology? Look to Lanxiang Technical School in Shandong, China!"
"A long-established prestigious school, reliable quality!"
"..." Gu Zhen remained silent for a while before saying, "I really don't know how to do this. Xi Xi, can you go out first?"
Gu Zhen held up the sweater in his hand and gestured to her, "I'm going to take off my clothes."
Li Xi then realized that she had taken over the other person's walk-in closet.
"You change!"
Li Xi turned and left.
The walk-in closet and bedroom are separated by a French frosted door, the double-opening type.
Li Xi thoughtfully closed the door, stood outside, and pricked up her ears.
But the hotel's soundproofing was excellent, and she didn't hear a thing.
In fact, after Li Xi left, Gu Zhen held the sweater without making a move.
He gazed at the beautiful figure on the other side of the frosted glass, and the thought that Li Xi was standing only three meters away from him made his blood boil.
Gu Zhen looked down at the spot where the reaction was intense, then took off his pajamas in despair and put on a sweater and trousers without expression.
"...Isn't it ready yet?" Li Xi was getting impatient.
"Professor Gu, are you putting on makeup or getting hair removal in there?"
"I wasn't this slow on our first date."
Gu Zhen glanced at his still somewhat unsettled body, then took a long trench coat from the wardrobe, put it on, and fastened the belt.
"All right."
Gu Zhen opened the door and walked out.
Li Xi had seen Gu Zhen wear a trench coat before, but this was the first time she had seen Gu Zhen wear it so properly and formally.
She found it strange and glanced at it a few more times, but didn't connect it to anything else. She simply said, "It's warm here, let's go."
Several cruise ships were docked at the pier, almost all belonging to tour companies, but one of them had a more exquisite appearance.
In the afternoon, when Li Xi accompanied Xie Zheng to the event, Xie Zheng told her that the cruise ship was a private cruise ship, probably belonging to a bigwig who came to attend the economic symposium.
At that moment, Li Xi boarded the cruise ship, specifically in the cockpit.
Gazing at the brightly lit, towering buildings of Dongzhou City across the sea, Li Xi pinched her thigh and asked Gu Zhen, "Is this your private yacht?"
"Ah."
Gu Zhen personally steered the ship, while the cruise ship's driver waited in the lounge at the back.
Not hearing Li Xi respond, Gu Zhen looked at her and said somewhat nervously, "You...don't like this cruise ship?"
"No, I like it very much."
Li Xi said, "I was thinking..."
"I am an orphan with no money or power. Apart from a stunningly beautiful face, a fairly intelligent mind, and an interesting soul, I can't find any other merits."
"So, Professor Gu, what exactly do you see in me?"
Gu Zhen chuckled, "You forgot to mention one thing."
Gu Zhen gently tapped Li Xi's cheek and smiled, "Besides the three points mentioned above, you also have the advantage of being thick-skinned."
Li Xi immediately laughed in anger.
"I like you." Gu Zhen subconsciously looked at Li Xi's left hand.
Li Xi caught him making a move, and with a suspicious look in her eyes, she questioned Gu Zhen: "Professor Gu, are you a hand fetishist?"
Gu Zhen was taken aback upon hearing this.
Before he could figure out how to answer the question, Li Xi stretched out her left hand in front of Gu Zhen, "I've known for a long time that you like to peek at my left hand."
Li Xi deliberately moved her middle three fingers, tempting Gu Zhen: "Since you stayed up late and personally drove me back to the city by boat, I'll allow you to kiss my hand."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Zhen grabbed her soft fingers, lowered his head, and reverently kissed the small red mole on her middle finger.
“...Xi Xi…”
This tender, affectionate whisper made Li Xi's heart tremble.
Her heart sank, and her legs went weak.
Li Xi didn't dare to move.
She looked down at Gu Zhen, who was devoutly kissing her fingers, and a number of strange thoughts suddenly popped into her mind.
Is this guy a pervert?
