Chapter 23 Reasons for Not Divorcing

“I'm afraid I know why you've been delaying the divorce for so long.”

On the rooftop of the old house, Lu Mingxuan leaned on the railing and looked at Gu Jin sideways.

Gu Jin frowned, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, pinched out the sparks in his fingers, and threw them on the ground.

“Perhaps you have ever thought that it is you who is unwilling to do so?”

Gu Jin snorted coldly, “Impossible.”

“Really? If I had known earlier, I should have taken a picture of your expression so that you could see it for yourself.” Lu Mingxuan said.

Gu Jin's hands froze, “I just feel that Jiang Yi is not worthy of her, and I don't have any other feelings for her.”

“Just because of this? Then why did you kiss Xiaoxiao? Wasn't it because you had different feelings for her?”

Gu Jin raised his eyes and looked at Lu Mingxuan.

The latter stretched lazily and leaned his back against the railing. “I have dated many girlfriends before. I can tell what you two have done just now from the way you two acted.”

“When it comes to matters of the heart, those involved are often confused, while those who are watching can see things more clearly.”

“No.” Gu Jin lowered his eyes, “I don't love her.”

“Who do you love then? Youqing? Do you really understand your own heart? You only promised her that you would give her an identity and take care of her for the rest of her life. Do you regard this responsibility as your love for her?”

Lu Mingxuan looked straight into his eyes, “With your personality, if you really love Youqing, you would not tolerate not giving her a name until now.”

“We have known each other for more than ten years. I won't be wrong.”

Gu Jin didn't say anything else. The sky was covered with a large dark cloud, and it was gloomy.

The cell phone rang. Gu Jin picked it up and took a look. His expression turned slightly colder.

It’s Su Youqing.

After hesitating for a moment, he picked up the phone.

“Hello?”

“Gu Jin.” Su Youqing's soft voice came from the other end of the phone, “Can you come and stay with me tonight? When I went for the prenatal checkup today, the doctor said that the fetal breathing was not stable. I haven't been in good condition these days. Can you come and stay with me?”

Gu Jin clenched his fingers around the phone and spoke in a low voice.

“good.”

After hanging up the phone, he picked up his coat hanging on the railing and walked straight out.

——

Su Youqing stood in front of the bathroom mirror, her face slightly pink because of the mist rising from the bathroom.

Although she is pregnant, fortunately it has not been long since she started, so her pregnancy is not noticeable yet. Her skin is fair and delicate, and the sexy lingerie makes her figure look even more exquisite.

The beauty in the mirror, with such a charming posture, is irresistible to any man.

She took out the perfume from the cabinet, which she had prepared when she was abroad.

In the past two years, she had taken the initiative countless times, but except for that time when he was drunk, he never accepted it!

This was what she asked her friend to buy at that time. It had a sweet smell and it had the effect of adding to the fun. If it weren't for this return trip, Gu Jin's change in attitude towards Ji Xiao would have brought her a strong sense of crisis.

She would never take it out no matter what!

In the mirror, Su Youqing's pure and beautiful face was gradually filled with hatred, and her eyes were ferocious and terrifying.

She had worked so hard for so many years to marry Gu Jin, and she absolutely couldn't let it be ruined by Ji Xiao.

Absolutely not!

The Gu family can only have her as the young lady!

I heard a door opening downstairs.

Su Youqing sprayed some perfume on the crook of her neck, then put on a bathrobe, lay on the bed, and watched Gu Jin open the door and walk in.

“What's wrong?”

Gu Jin strode to the bedside, put his palm on her forehead, and asked in a deep voice.

There was a strange smell in the room, and Gu Jin frowned slightly.

“It's okay...” Su Youqing shook her head, “I just keep having nightmares recently, dreaming that you don't want me anymore...”

“Gu Jin, you promised to take care of me for the rest of my life. You won't break your promise, right?”

“Yes, I will always take care of you.”

Ji Xiao’s tearful and sad eyes suddenly came to Gu Jin’s mind, and he suddenly felt a little irritated.

“ I knew, Gu Jin, you must love me.”

Su Youqing threw herself into Gu Jin's arms, wrapping her arms tightly around his waist.

The pungent fragrance became stronger. Gu Jin pulled Su Youqing away and said, “Aren't you feeling unwell? Go to bed early. I'll stay with you.”

“Gu Jin...” Su Youqing raised her head shyly, untied the ties of her bathrobe, revealing her exquisite body. She placed her small hands on Gu Jin's chest, her eyes seductive, “I asked the doctor, he said it's ok now, just be gentle, it won't hurt the baby...”

Gu Jin's throat tightened, and a strange heat spread from somewhere to his whole body, as if some desire was about to burst out of his chest.

The woman in his arms had unbuttoned his shirt at some point, and her soft body was pressed tightly against him, breathing softly.

His palms were covered with fine beads of sweat. Gu Jin only felt that his throat was terribly dry and his whole body was burning hot. His consciousness gradually became unclear. The face of the woman in front of him gradually overlapped with the person in his mind.

Ji Xiao?

Unable to help but wrap his arms around the woman's waist, Gu Jin bit the woman's neck roughly and pushed her down on the bed, his eyes filled with burning desire.

Su Youqing chuckled and hugged his neck, moaning in response.

Ji Xiao, even if you can be favored by others, what does it matter? The man you love most will eventually surrender to me.

“Gu Jin...” Su Youqing leaned forward and softened her voice, “I love you so much...”

Suddenly, Gu Jin stopped his hot lips.

Not her.

Ji Xiao would never use such a charming voice to please him. Her voice should be like a flower on the mountain top, cold and clean. Even when he was distracted by her kiss, it was still the same!

His body still felt tight and uncomfortable, but he no longer had any desire.

He looked at Su Youqing steadily.

She had used some tricks on him a few months ago...

Now, you want to do the same old trick again?

Gu Jin stood up, buttoned his clothes, put on his coat, and covered Su Youqing with a blanket with a stern face.

“Gu Jin...” Su Youqing stared at Gu Jin blankly and held his hand, “Did I do something wrong...Are you worried that the child will be hurt?”

“It's okay Gu Jin, I asked the doctor, it's okay...”

Gu Jin lowered his eyes, pulled out his hand, stood by the bed for a long time, and then spoke in a hoarse voice, “You have a good rest, I will come to see you tomorrow.”

“No, Gu Jin, don't go... Please, don't go...”

Su Youqing cried, and her pale fingers trembled as she grabbed the corner of Gu Jin's clothes.

She didn't understand, she had already done this, why was Gu Jin still unwilling to touch her?

Gu Jin looked at Su Youqing, sighed, took the corner of his clothes from her hand, and sat on the edge of the bed, “It's not appropriate now.”

“Why?”

What do you mean it's not the right time now? Hasn't he already agreed to marry her? Isn't marriage a foregone conclusion?

“You should have a good rest.”

Gu Jin said, then stood up and left the room.

Listening to the sound of a car engine starting downstairs, Su Youqing grabbed the teacup on the bedside table and slammed it against the wall, clenching her fists so tightly that her nails dug deeply into her flesh.

“Ji Xiao!”

Su Youqing's eyes were filled with hatred.
