30. Lies

With the signatures of both parties and the notarization by the notary office, this document has legal effect.

There were two copies, and Lin Shengxia handed the one belonging to Gu Zekai to him.

"Goodbye." The simple and clear words were just like Lin Shengxia's style. Gu Zekai fiddled with the thin paper in his hand, his eyes never leaving her.

"Mr. Lin, please stay." He opened his thin lips slightly and spoke without emotion.

Lin Shengxia stopped, turned around and looked directly at Gu Zekai, not expecting him to speak.

It was not until this moment that Gu Zekai discovered that the woman in front of him had a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, and under her thick and curled eyelashes were crystal amber eyes.

But it is also full of stubbornness and unwillingness to show weakness.

"Did you take medicine after that night?" Gu Zekai looked straight into her eyes, not missing any fleeting trace.

Lin Shengxia frowned slightly. Why did he suddenly ask this?

Could it be that news of my affairs had leaked out?

"Mr. Gu, do you think I would be willing to have your child?" She did not directly respond to the question, which is also a common tactic used by liars.

"Yes—or no!"

However, Gu Zekai didn't want to be easily fooled by Lin Shengxia. He wanted to know exactly from this woman whether she had taken the medicine or not.

"Yes, is it ok?"

After a moment, Lin Shengxia spoke lightly.

After getting a positive answer, Gu Zekai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was too careless that night, and only realized the seriousness of the problem when he thought about it later.

"You can go now. But I kindly remind you that if you want to make a fuss about what happened that night, you will die a more miserable death."

Hearing this, Lin Shengxia stood in place and glanced at Gu Zekai.

Men can always be cruel to women they don't love!

Lin Shengxia narrowed her eyes slightly and left without saying another word.

————I am the dividing line————

At the same time, two old men were playing Go comfortably in the room.

The air is filled with the smell of incense and fresh tea, and the black and white pieces are interspersed on the chessboard, creating a unique feel.

"I don't like the girls from the Lin family. Akai did a good job!" The old lady had gray hair, but her words sounded a little childish.

The old man took the black piece and put it down, winning the game.

"I don't want to play anymore. You beat me every time." As she said this, the old lady pushed the black and white pieces on the chessboard away, and they instantly mixed together.

"Let the children solve their own problems. What's the point if you don't like it?"

The old man smiled helplessly, as if he was already used to it.

"Why did my son die while the granddaughter of the Lin family is doing so well until now? My daughter-in-law is still lying down!" The old lady became emotional and spoke incoherently.

"I told you not to mention this anymore, and you bring it up again."

Gu Hongwen frowned as he spoke.

The old lady's throat choked and her heart felt bitter.

"Don't think I don't know. You're still thinking about that person, aren't you? It was you back then--" Before Xie Qingge could finish her words, Gu Hongwen interrupted her with a look.

"We've been arguing for a lifetime, isn't that enough?"

Gu Hongwen's voice was hoarse and his tone was slow. After saying this, he left the room without looking back.

Xie Qingge was left alone, looking at the messy chessboard——

It only adds to the sadness.
