Zhan Ji listened to Lin Mengwu with a straight face. He never thought that this would happen.
But Zhan Ji had to be much calmer. He thought about it carefully and said, "According to taking care of qingcheng, you saved him before. Maybe you didn't care, but he remembered. And now he met you, and then..."
"Will this kind of romantic drama really happen?" Lin Mengwu frowned.
Why did she always feel that this kind of plot was very bloodthirsty?
Zhan Ji said, "Of course it will happen. Inspiration comes from life, and any plot of dog blood evolves through real life. If it wasn't for this reason, then it was because he had begun to doubt us that he made this move. But I think the first one is more reliable. I don't think Gu Qingcheng is the kind of person who would sacrifice his feelings to explore something."
"What should we do now?" Lin Mengwu asked.
Zhan Ji looked at her without saying a word.
Lin Mengwu suddenly remembered what Gu Qingxin said, so he said, "Are you going to make me pander to Gu Qingcheng, gain his trust, and get the dream heart?"
"I have no intention of doing that." Zhan Ji immediately denied.
Lin Mengwu curled his lips, "If you don't have this plan, why would Gu Qingxin say that?"
Zhan Ji immediately explained, "If I don't agree to her first, how can she arrange for me to meet you? I agree to her, but it's only a temporary measure. As for the plan, I want your opinion. What are you going to do?"
Lin Mengwu frowned and almost cursed Zhan Ji to death.
He clearly wanted to agree, but he didn't want to be this evil person, so he kicked the ball to himself.
However, she was not in the mood to play this kind of mind trick with him. After thinking for a while, she said, "I think now is the best chance to get the dream heart. Let me get close to Gu Qingcheng and get the dream heart. But I have a request to get the dream heart. You have to promise me."
"What request?"
"If I get the dream heart, you have to promise me to break off the engagement."
Zhan Ji frowned.
Lin Mengwu saw that he didn't speak and said anxiously, "Since you and Li Yunshen had such an agreement at that time, why couldn't I? I want to control my own destiny. If I get the dream heart, I should make this rule."
"Then why don't you just say that if you get the dream heart, you'll be with Li Yunshen." Zhan Ji said coldly.
Lin Mengwu's ears turned red and he said shyly and angrily, "Who said I must follow him? Can't I control my own destiny? As long as I get the dream heart, I will clear my grudges with your Zhan Family. I will make my own decisions in the future. But it's no use telling you that. I'll talk to Mr. Zhan myself. I think he won't refuse my request for the sake of his dream."
"Indeed, he will not refuse your request for the sake of his dream. Then Wu, do I still have a chance?" Zhan Ji looked at her deeply and asked.
Lin Mengwu frowned, trying to say that there was no chance, but felt too cruel.
But was there a chance?
She was enraged by Lin Meng' an at that time, so she made a mistake on impulse.
But one mistake was enough. She couldn't make it again.
Therefore, she pursed her lips tightly and remained silent.
Zhan Ji smiled bitterly and sighed, "I'm really asking such an idiotic question. I understand, but Wu, you have to remember why you approached Gu Qingcheng. Don't get emotional easily. Otherwise, when he finds out the truth, it will be you who will get hurt."
"Don't worry, I won't be emotional easily." Lin Mengwu said.
Zhan Ji nodded and smiled bitterly, "I'm meddling again. How can you have feelings for him? He's the only one you really have feelings for... But remember one thing, don't get too close to him. Gu Qingcheng is a very shrewd person. He can tell if there's a little bit of wind or grass. If you get in touch with him too much, Gu Qingcheng will know that no man can allow his woman to like another man. So, he will thoroughly investigate his ancestors for 18 generations. By then, he will not be able to hide it no matter how hard he tries."
"Don't worry, I know." Lin Mengwu said.
Zhan Ji nodded again and smiled bitterly, "Yes, you know, you always know. Even if you don't like someone, you can hide it well beside him."
After that, he smiled bitterly.
Lin Mengwu frowned, but knowing that he must be feeling bad now, he stopped saying anything to provoke him.
The bodyguard outside quickly knocked on the door and asked Zhan Ji to go out.
Zhan Ji took a deep breath and said, "Then I'll go first. Be careful here alone."
Lin Mengwu nodded and watched him leave. When he reached the door, he opened his mouth to ask something, but did not ask.
Zhan Ji, on the other hand, walked to the door and turned around, "Don't worry, I'll come and see you. We don't love each other, but we still have to have the right feelings."
"Thank you." Lin Mengwu said gratefully.
She was grateful that Zhan Ji didn't leave her here alone. At least she promised to stay here forever.
Zhan Ji opened the door and went out.
Then the door was open, and there were still people guarding the door.
But Lin Mengwu didn't want to go out. He wanted to go out to look for zhan halberd or Li Yunshen. But now that no one wanted to find her, it was better not to meet Li Yunshen for the time being.
She sat back on the sofa, picked up her teacup, and slowly tasted the tea.
Sipping tea, she thought about what to do next.
After Zhan Ji left, the bodyguards led the way, but they didn't send him out. Instead, he was sent to another side hall where Gu Qingcheng was sitting and drinking tea.
Zhan Ji knew that Gu Qingcheng would definitely talk to him, so he was not surprised to see him and walked over calmly.
"Young master zhan, please sit down." Gu Qingcheng said very politely.
Zhan Ji sat down and took a sip of tea.
Gu Qingcheng smiled and said apologetically, "Young master zhan, I'm really sorry. Please forgive me for what happened before. I'm here to compensate you."
Although he was apologizing, his actions and tone did not mean that he was sorry at all.
Zhan Ji was actually very contemptuous in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be flattered and said calmly, "Mr. Gu, you're welcome. I can understand Mr. Gu's painstaking efforts. But Mr. Gu didn't have to do this before. Between Wu and I... I think your sister has already told you. If it weren't for my father, we wouldn't be engaged."
Gu Qingcheng smiled and said happily, "My heart has told me so that I feel much better. Otherwise, it's really something I don't want to take away someone's love."
Zhan Ji sneered in his heart. Even if it was to steal someone's love, you wouldn't feel guilty at all!
