Gao Wu: She who transforms into a broken body becomes stronger by adding points Chapter 044

Being stared at so intently by Gu Jinzhi, Li Wei felt uncomfortable all over, and her face was a little hot.

But when she thought of the stiff interaction between the two of them at the Civil Affairs Bureau just now, as if they were going to the execution ground, she forcibly suppressed that discomfort.

No, she had to act!

The affectionate persona of “Jiang Xue” could not collapse. The awkwardness when they got the certificate could be explained as the little girl being nervous, but when trying on the wedding dress, any normal woman who was about to marry the person she loved would definitely be bubbling with happiness.

If she didn’t act, Gu Jinzhi might become suspicious.

Besides, she had already tried on those styles that were almost the same as being naked in the fitting room just now. Now, this one that was relatively tightly wrapped… didn’t seem that awkward?

[A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water! Since I’m here, let’s do it!]

She calmed herself down, tried to imitate the demeanor that Lin Shuying had taught her just now, turned slightly to the side, picked up the skirt and turned a small circle in place, squeezing out a smile that she thought was sweet towards Gu Jinzhi.

“Does it look good?”

Her voice was soft and coquettish, and she herself felt goosebumps all over her.

However, the admiring or gentle response from Gu Jinzhi that she had imagined did not appear.

The daze that flashed across his face quickly faded, replaced by an almost deliberate indifference.

His expression sank, and his tone was stiff: “I have something to do, I’ll go first.”

After speaking, he didn’t look at Li Wei again, got up directly, and strode out.

This sudden turn of events confused the three people present.

The smile on Li Wei’s face froze directly, a little dazed.

Lin Shuying was also stunned in place, at a loss.

Liang Qiushi reacted the fastest, her face sank, she took a few steps to the door, and reached out to grab Gu Jinzhi’s arm.

She just wanted to say something, but inadvertently met her son’s eyes, which were so silent that they were a little scary, as if a storm was brewing. The words that came to her mouth were instantly blocked back.

“Mom?” Gu Jinzhi stopped, looked at his mother, and the emotions in his eyes instantly converged cleanly.

Liang Qiushi looked at her son, her heart felt like it was being pinched by something, a little painful, and a little powerless.

She originally wanted to say that his sudden change of face and leaving would embarrass “Jiang Xue” and be too rude.

But on second thought, hasn’t her son been like this for the past four years?

The more others wanted to get close, the farther he retreated, as if emotions had become some kind of flood beast.

Liang Qiushi knew what he was carrying, and the weight made her feel distressed, and she unconsciously let go of her hand.

Gu Jinzhi was silent for a few seconds, his lips moved, but in the end he said nothing.

Before leaving, his gaze uncontrollably drifted towards Li Wei again, just a quick glance, as if he was scalded by the dazzling pure white, and his pace disappeared faster at the door.

Liang Qiushi looked in the direction her son left, her eyes complex, and finally turned into a sigh that was almost inaudible.

She turned back, her face re-covered with a gentle but apologetic smile, and said to the other two: “Shuying, A Xue, I’m really sorry.”

Li Wei didn’t care at all, but breathed a sigh of relief.

[It’s good to leave, it’s good to leave, so I don’t have to act awkwardly here, my face is cramping!]

Lin Shuying was even more exquisite and clear, and immediately restored her perfect professional smile, her eyes clear, as if the little episode just now had never happened.

“It’s okay, Aunt Liang. Then… Miss Jiang, shall we continue?”

……

The next process began to become formulaic.

Lin Shuying showed a very high level of professionalism, carefully measuring and recording various data for Li Wei, recommending suitable makeup styles and jewelry collocations, and explaining everything in a thorough and meticulous manner, impeccable.

However, there always seemed to be a faint low air pressure lingering in the air.

Li Wei was happy to be quiet, relaxed throughout the whole process, mechanically cooperating with Lin Shuying’s instructions, her mind had already flown to the martial arts alliance assessment in the afternoon.

When the final makeup plan and a set of simple but luxurious pearl jewelry were finalized, it was finally completed.

Liang Qiushi took Li Wei and said goodbye to Lin Shuying politely, and left the studio.

It was almost one o’clock in the afternoon.

The two found a high-end restaurant in the mall that looked elegant.

After the waiter served the food and left, only the two of them were left in the private room. Li Wei finally couldn’t hold back, leaned closer, and lowered her voice: “Aunt Liang, I’m sorry, did I not act very well just now…”

Before she finished speaking, Liang Qiushi suddenly raised a finger and gently touched her lips, signaling her not to speak.

Li Wei immediately shut up, her eyes widened, full of question marks.

Liang Qiushi pointed to the dishes on the table: “Eat.”

Then, she took out her phone, quickly typed a few words, and then turned the screen to Li Wei.

The screen showed a line of small print – there may be eavesdropping.

Li Wei froze instantly, her eyes subconsciously scanned the private room quickly, and even couldn’t help bending down, lifting a corner of the tablecloth, and peeking under the table.

As a result, except for Liang Qiushi’s long legs wrapped in delicate black silk, with beautiful curves, she didn’t see anything suspicious…

[I’m going! What’s going on? A spy movie scene? Is it necessary?]

[But… Aunt Liang’s legs are really top-notch… Uncle Gu… um, is his kidney okay?]

Liang Qiushi ignored her surprise and began to eat on her own.

Li Wei quickly shook off the colored waste in her head, smiled awkwardly, and buried herself in eating.

This meal was eaten in a strange and silent atmosphere.

Back in the car, Liang Qiushi said gently:

“A Xue, I’m going to keep an eye on the wedding and the hotel this afternoon, so I won’t accompany you. The Imperial Capital Branch of the Martial Arts Alliance is nearby, so I’ll send you there first.”

As she said this, she sent a friend’s business card to Li Wei’s Lingxun, and after watching Li Wei successfully add it, she continued:

“This is Xiaoyan’s Lingxun number, she will be your full-time driver in the future.”

“I’ve already asked her to drive to the parking lot of the Imperial Capital Branch to wait for you. If you can’t find anyone after the assessment, just contact her with Lingxun.”

“Okay.”

Li Wei knew that this driver probably couldn’t be completely trusted when she heard Liang Qiushi still calling her “A Xue”.

She immediately switched back to the well-behaved daughter-in-law mode, and nodded obediently.

Before long, the car stopped by the magnificent front square of the branch building.

She took a deep breath, stepped out, got out of the car, said a simple goodbye to Liang Qiushi, and then walked across the wide square towards the giant building that looked particularly majestic and impressive.

At this moment, she felt that the sky was a few degrees bluer, and the air was particularly fresh.

Suddenly, she had a sense of joy and satisfaction from escaping from the set of a bloody urban emotional drama and returning to her familiar track.

[A life of pretending to be a force like the wind, I’m coming!!!]
