I just want to inherit the family property and don't want to fall in love

"If you really take me to open a hotel, you will be responsible for me for the rest of your life, and I will depend on you for the rest of your life." Gu Tingjun spoke half-truthfully, expressing his heart in a joke.

Listening to what Gu Tingjun said, Ye Wangyou was very envious of Ning Xi meeting such a handsome, wealthy and dedicated man like Gu Tingjun.

"I've been responsible to you for a long time, it's not like you don't know."

"..." Gu Tingjun couldn't say anything, besides obtaining the certificate, they had already confirmed their relationship.

He really wanted to marry Ning Xi back home and keep her pampered at home. He didn't want all the complicated things outside to disturb Ning Xi's mood.

Ning Xi is not a golden bird, even if she does get married in the future, Ning Xi will not be able to stay at home and be a full-time wife.

Gu Tingjun wanted to do his best to protect her from harm, but he didn't want to disappoint Ning Xi.

There was no way to find a compromise, so he could only stay by Ning Xi's side and block all the external damage.

Ye Wangyou found a hotel and dropped them off at the hotel entrance.

"Young Master, Young Master Gu, I'll come here to pick you up tomorrow morning. It's getting late, so I'll go back first."

Ye Wangyou seized an opportunity and left, deliberately creating time for the two of them to be alone.

"Be careful on the way back." Ning Xi said a few words before entering the hotel with Gu Tingjun.

"Two rooms." Ning Xi took out her ID card and placed it at the front desk. Gu Tingjun thought she would get a room, but Ning Xi wanted to share a room with him.

"Okay." The front desk quickly went through the check-in procedures.

Gu Tingjun thought mischievously, if there was only one room left, would Ning Xi live with him?
After waiting for a long time, I didn't wait for the front desk to say that there was only one room left, but I did get the answer that the housing procedures were completed.

"This is the room card for the two of you. There is an elevator over there. Please take the elevator to the fifth floor." The front desk reminded politely.

The two walked into the elevator, and Gu Tingjun looked at Ning Xi from time to time, hesitant to speak, all of which were seen by Ning Xi through the reflective wall.

Ning Xi took the room card and opened a door, took Gu Tingjun's arm and entered her room.

While putting the bag on the bed, Ning Xi reminded, "Take off your clothes."

"Take off... take off your clothes? Is this developing too fast? I haven't showered yet." Gu Tingjun took off his coat while talking.

As soon as Ning Xi turned around, Gu Tingjun's shirt had been casually thrown aside. He stretched out his hands, waiting for Ning Xi's embrace.

Ning Xi walked around Gu Tingjun's body and touched the bruise on Gu Tingjun's back with her fingertips, feeling guilty and distressed in her heart.

Judging from these traces, these are all marks left by a stone being hit just now.

"It hurts, right? Those stones must have hurt when they hit your body. Why do you still stand in front of me? Why don't you hide? If you hide, these injuries won't stay on your body."

Ning Xi's eyes were red, she felt sorry for Gu Tingjun who did all this for her, obviously she didn't need to do this, and she didn't need to get hurt.

Gu Tingjun turned around, hugged him into his arms, and planted a kiss on Ning Xi's forehead.

"Fool, I won't block it for you, who will block it for you? I'm a man, these small injuries are nothing to me, but you, if you have these wounds on your body, aren't you afraid that I will despise you? ?”

Gu Tingjun deliberately asked back, but Ning Xi didn't react for a while, and hurriedly explained, "These scars are not permanent scars, they will disappear after a while, why do you despise me?"

"You're right, these injuries will disappear after a while, so you don't have to worry."

"But……"

The following words were blocked by a fiery kiss.

"Can I stay here tonight? I'm injured, so I can't walk back, or you kindly take me in for a night, okay?" Gu Tingjun asked back.

He didn't want to go back to another room, because Ning Xi was in this room, and he wanted to stay in the room with Ning Xi.

Listening to what Gu Tingjun said, Ning Xi thought he liked this room, so she took her bag and prepared to leave.

"Where are you going?" Gu Tingjun put one hand on the door, blocking Ning Xi's way.

"If you like this room, then I'll go to another room. You're hurt and have a good rest. Don't move around. Be obedient."

After Ning Xi finished speaking, she took the hand off the door, opened the door and left the room, saying good night to Gu Tingjun before leaving.

Gu Tingjun's face was full of disappointment, the plan failed, and he failed to keep him.

Ning Xi pretended to be relaxed. After returning to another room, she hastily closed the door and locked it. She slid her back against the door and fell to the ground. She held her face in her hands, feeling the heat on her cheeks.

Gu Tingjun's figure has always been in good condition. It's not that Ning Xi doesn't understand what he meant just now, but she's just pretending to be stupid.

It was like holding a little rabbit in his arms, beating non-stop.

Ning Xi couldn't help showing a shy smile, and after being happy for a while, the phone in her pocket rang, and she took it out to see that it was Qili's call.

Qili would call at this time, there should be news about the missing person, Ning Xi answered the call without any hesitation.

Can't wait to ask, "Qili, did you find the only survivor?"

"No, we have been divided into several teams and have been searching but have not found the other party's whereabouts. It is estimated that he was either taken away by someone, or he was in danger."

Judging from the time when he called Qili, when the people from Qili arrived, they should be able to meet him directly.

After the people from Qili arrived, they searched for the person in an instant, but they couldn't find anyone. Obviously, the disappearance of the other party was definitely not accidental.

Now the only clue was cut off, which was a big blow to Ning Xi.

"You all worked hard today, let everyone else come back, and try again after dawn."

Since there was no one to be found, it was useless to keep them there. Moreover, Ning Xi could no longer watch others leave her.

"Young master, you don't have to worry, as long as it's done by humans, there will definitely be clues left."

"I know, thank you Qili, you have been with me all these years, no matter what happens, you are willing to stand by my side, thank you very much."

Ning Xi became emotional for a while. Since the fire happened this time, Ning Xi realized that she is not omnipotent. She was able to get to where she is today step by step. Apart from her own hard work and talent, she also has some things that she is willing to stay in. People around her who fight with her.

Qili is one of them.

Ning Xi also saw all the hard work in Qili.
