The love is so deep that Mr. Gu is crazy

Chapter 105 You Are Not Afraid of Poisoning

The car was driving steadily on the road. There were not many vehicles on the road at this time.

When Shen Li thought of the blushing and heart-pounding scene just now, the tips of her ears turned red and her fair cheeks looked like ripe peaches.

Gu Jingcheng's fingers were slender as he gripped the steering wheel, and the slightly raised veins on the back of his hands exuded his unique male hormones.

As a normal adult woman, Shen Li couldn't help but take a few more glances and let her imagination run wild.

The white, slender and bony fingers were so gentle and powerful when holding Shen Li's hands.

Shen Li just stared at his hands at first, then unconsciously, his eyes moved along his fingers, to his Adam's apple, and then to his face...

Looking at Gu Jingcheng who was driving seriously with a normal expression, Shen Li couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Her legs went limp from the kiss and her head was buzzing. By the time her breathing had calmed down, the other person had already driven on the road as if nothing had happened, staring straight ahead.

It was as if the person who was so strong and fanatical, with aggressive eyes and wanted to eat her alive was not him.

Just as she was daydreaming, her cell phone rang. She was so scared that she quickly looked away.

Answered the call from Xie Xiaoqin.

"Yeah, I'm on my way back, almost there."

"Don't be so excited, what's the important thing?"

"what?!"

······

After hanging up the phone with Xie Xiaoqin, Shen Li's brain was still a little unresponsive. He lowered his eyes to think, subconsciously bit his lip, and tilted his head as if thinking.

The car had already stopped steadily downstairs of the community. Gu Jingcheng stopped the car, tilted his head and asked her, "What's wrong?"

Shen Li opened his mouth but didn't answer him immediately. He was silent for a few seconds before unbuckling his seat belt and turning sideways to face Gu Jingcheng.

"Why don't you ask me why I'm in Kyoto at this time?"

She and Gu Jingcheng had told each other that today was the day the crew would officially start filming.

Gu Jingcheng raised his eyebrows slightly, with a faint smile on his lips, and looked at her softly: "If you want to say it, you will say it naturally. If you don't want to say it, why should I bother you."

"I just want you to see me when you turn around, and I'll be there whenever you want me to accompany you. As long as you're happy, the rest is not that important..."

His voice was very soft, and he spoke such heartwarming words with magnetism and charm. Shen Li was slightly stunned and began to explain.

"Actually, I was replaced by the crew. The investors replaced me with someone else. The opportunity I worked so hard for was gone just like that. I had no choice but to run back in disgrace." Shen Li said, lowering his eyes, feeling a little depressed.

Gu Jingcheng reached out, held Shen Li's hand, and tightened his grip.

Shen Li saw that he was not surprised at all. He was surprised for a moment, and then he asked out loud, "Did you know this a long time ago?"

A pair of sparkling pupils stared at Gu Jingcheng, trying to find some clues from his face.

Hearing this, the corners of his eyes raised and he thought: She is quite smart.

Shen Li looked at his expression and knew that he had known it long ago.

Although he had predicted it, Shen Li was still a little shocked when he got a positive answer.

Gu Jingcheng didn't tell the truth. He just said, "I guessed it. This kind of thing is very common in this circle. Besides, since you don't want to make our relationship public, others certainly won't have any scruples."

He had known it for a long time but didn't say a word. He really gave Shen Li enough space and respect.

Tears gradually filled Shen Li's eyes, and he felt mixed emotions.

Gu Jingcheng said seriously: "I guess the investor you mentioned is not a big shot. If you need, I can... become your biggest investor. Your boyfriend does have this ability."

Shen Li shook his head, raised his eyes, and changed to a more relaxed tone. His eyes also brightened, and he said, "I just received a call from Xiaoqin. She said that the crew contacted her and decided to use me. She asked me to return to the crew tomorrow."

Gu Jingcheng's dark eyes narrowed, barely perceptible.

“That’s a good thing, then,” he said.

"Then it seems that my boyfriend is useless."

Shen Li smiled, wrapped her arms around him, and kissed him on the lips, giggling, "Who said that? When I think of you as my boyfriend, I will wake up laughing in my dreams at night."

Gu Jingcheng chuckled and stretched out his hand to gently scratch her nose: "You~When are you leaving? I'll take you there."

Shen Li pursed his lips and said thoughtfully: "But I haven't decided whether to go back or not."

Gu Jingcheng frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Why? Didn't you fight hard to get this opportunity? Although it has gone through some twists and turns, fortunately the crew is not blind."

"Well, I fought hard to get this position. Logically, I should be cheering and jumping for joy now, but the crew just said yesterday that I was replaced. It's been less than 24 hours, and they asked me to go back."

"I don't know why, but if another investor comes in a few days and asks me to leave, I can't stand it a second time..."

Shen Li, who had just entered this circle, was not quite adapted to her new identity.

Even though I knew I wanted to do this job, these were just trivial things and not worth mentioning at all.

But, it’s not a good feeling to be picked and chosen by others...

Gu Jingcheng listened to her patiently, thought for a moment, and said, "How about we make it public? Let's make you the investor that no one dares to replace. They will be somewhat wary of Mrs. Gu's identity."

Shen Li immediately shook his head and rejected his idea.

"do not want!"

Although the two have now established a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, Shen Li is very clear that there is an agreement between them. In the beginning, the two were just a deal.

Even though she couldn't control her feelings for Gu Jingcheng again and again before, she always suppressed her inner emotions.

It was not until Gu Jingcheng's confession that she felt dizzy and impulsively accepted it, officially starting their relationship.

She wanted to indulge herself once, to be with him selfishly and recklessly, even if only for a moment.

But deep down, she is inferior.

She kept reminding herself that it was just a relationship and satisfying her own selfish desires was enough. She shouldn't really think of herself as Gu Jingcheng's wife or Gu family's granddaughter-in-law. If she got too deeply involved, she would be the only one who suffered in the end.

I never thought about having a future with Gu Jingcheng, and I didn't dare to even think about it.

Therefore, she didn't want to have too deep involvement and ties with him in front of outsiders, and was even more unwilling to make their relationship public.

She also has her pride and self-esteem, and does not want to rely on Gu Jingcheng to get shortcuts in her career.

Their beginning was already a transaction, so now, let's keep some purity in their feelings.

Gu Jingcheng naturally didn't know what Shen Li was thinking. He just thought that Shen Li, who was stubborn by nature, didn't want to rely on him to get some advantages at work. She had her own persistence and pursuit.

She didn't want to, but Gu Jingcheng didn't force her. He reached out and rubbed her hair, saying softly, "Okay, it's up to you. If you don't want to go back, I support you. There will definitely be better opportunities later."

Shen Li smiled and nodded: "Well, I'll think about it. Actually, I haven't made up my mind yet. Without considering other things, the production team and the script are very good. This is the first time I have joined such a dedicated crew, and I don't want to give up such a good opportunity casually."

Gu Jingcheng expressed his understanding and said that he would unconditionally support whatever decision she made.

The two of them stayed in the car for a while. Xie Xiaoqin, who was anxious at home, sent another message to ask where Shen Li was. Only then did she reluctantly push Gu Jingcheng's chest to distance them from each other.

While adjusting my breathing, I tidied my hair to make myself look less... messy.

Gu Jingcheng looked at Shen Li, whose cheeks were flushed and breathing was unstable, with great interest. He leaned his elbow on the steering wheel with one hand, and rubbed his lips back and forth with his fingertips, savoring the moment.

"Would you like to touch up your lipstick?"

Gu Jingcheng curled his lips and smiled, looking at Shen Li with a smile in his eyes, which really could not be considered innocent.

Shen Li pulled down the car's rearview mirror, took a look, and was shocked. Her face became even redder. Her skin was fair, and even her neck and ears were red, like a boiled shrimp.

She had put on light makeup today, and there was no trace of lipstick on her lips. It must have been eaten by someone a long time ago, and even her makeup was smudged.

If she went back like this, Xie Xiaoqin would definitely laugh at her and would inevitably pull her aside to talk about topics that are not suitable for children.

She took out a powder compact from her bag to touch up her makeup and was about to apply lipstick when Gu Jingcheng reached out from the back seat and took out a beautifully wrapped gift box and handed it to her.

"Use this."

Shen Li unpacked it and found a whole new series of lipsticks from the brand she used.

"Give it to me?"

Gu Jingcheng nodded, his eyebrows raised, "Well, after all, I ate it all. As the person involved, I must make some compensation."

Shen Li's face turned even redder. She glared at him coquettishly and said unhappily, "Aren't you afraid of being poisoned?"

Then she picked one at random, put it on her lips, turned around and asked him, "Does it look good?"

Gu Jingcheng couldn't actually tell the difference between her makeup and the one she had put on before, but he still praised her flatteringly: "You look good even without makeup."

He was speaking from the heart, and Shen Li was not annoyed by his cheesy love talk. She smiled, took a tissue and wiped Gu Jingcheng's lips.

Seeing the faint color on the tissue, she pursed her lips embarrassedly, quickly got out of the car, said goodbye to Gu Jingcheng, and went upstairs holding the lipstick gift box he gave her.

Gu Jingcheng looked through the car window at the person running away and couldn't help but chuckle. He started the car and left only when he could no longer see the person.
