Chapter 276 The Pain of Being Forgotten
Chapter 276 The Pain of Being Forgotten
When Gu Xiqing came downstairs in her light pink and white nightgown, she saw Lin Qingxuan standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, gazing at the sparkling sea and slowly blowing out smoke rings.
White smoke emerged from his slightly open lips, lingering around him, blending him into the cold and dark living room.
His eyelids were lowered, and the coldness in his eyes was even colder than the night.
In just a moment, Gu Xiqing seemed to have returned to the familiar timeline. Her heart suddenly stopped, her hands holding the stair handrail trembled, and her legs became weak.
Some memories that have been forgotten with time, as well as the physical pain, are now deeply engraved in my mind.
I felt as if I was there, I lost all energy, my scalp was numb and breathing became difficult.
So...was this the kind of him she had been facing before?
How could she have the courage to put her face close to him at that time?
Even though she knew that he would not show any mercy to her, she still threw herself at him recklessly like an idiot moth to a flame.
My stomach was churning with nausea, and I quickly covered my mouth and ran downstairs to the sink at the bar, where I vomited out everything I had eaten in the morning.
Lin Qingxuan heard the noise, put out his cigarette in the ashtray, and turned on the light in the living room.
He strode over to her and patted her on the back.
"You don't feel well? Should I ask Qiao Sen to come and check on you?"
"No need..." Gu Xiqing weakly took his hand away and took a cup of water to rinse her mouth. "I'm fine."
It's just that my vague memories suddenly became clear, and I felt disgusted with my previous behavior.
"You're in very poor condition." Lin Qingxuan frowned, "Gu Xiqing, you need to see a doctor."
"I'm really fine." After rinsing her mouth, Gu Xiqing leaned against the bar and looked up at him with worried eyes. Compared with the cold eyes just now, his eyes now seemed like two different people.
As if she had seen it wrong.
"Is there something on my face?" Lin Qingxuan saw her staring at him and reached out to touch his face.
"You're smoking again." Gu Xiqing smelled the minty scent of cigarettes and made up a random topic to evade the question.
Lin Qingxuan immediately grasped the key words, "Again?"
What do you mean?
'He' quit smoking?
"It's nothing... I just haven't seen you smoking for a long time." Gu Xiqing lowered her head, washed the water cup and put it back in its place.
Lin Qingxuan looked at her back and fell into deep thought.
How could he in this world quit smoking and drinking?
Did his disguise fail?
"Tomorrow, Saturday, maybe you can ask Qiao Sen to come and take a look at your injury."
Gu Xiqing's voice interrupted his troubled thoughts.
"Yeah." For a moment I didn't know how to continue communicating with her.
Afraid that she would see the flaw.
Gu Xiqing saw that he was hesitant and embarrassed, "What's wrong?"
Lin Qingxuan shook his head gloomily, "It's okay, I'm just worried about you."
The two of them had a huge difference in size, and now she looked pale and weak in front of him, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.
"I'll go to the hospital myself if I feel unwell. It's getting late. I'm going upstairs. You should get some rest too."
After saying this, Gu Xiqing took out a bottle of water from the refrigerator and walked out from the other side of the bar.
Although I didn't eat dinner, I really had no mood and no appetite.
As soon as I returned to S City, I felt like I was back in a cage made of drawn lines.
Suddenly I feel a little regretful for agreeing not to divorce.
Quantum research didn’t just start in recent years, so how could it be possible to understand it all at once?
Cold atom experiments won't succeed immediately.
Even if she succeeds, can she really escape from this body?
Maybe all this was destined by God, allowing her to start over, but she missed the opportunity because of guilt and sin?
