When she was young, her mother would always say that she was pretty, saying that all the daughters were raised to be good-looking, and that we, Xiao Qiu, were born to be good-looking.
Then, for a while, people were always talking behind her back about her being a vase, saying that good-looking people didn't have brains. She felt sad and went to her mother to say that she didn't want this face, but her mother said that it was a gift from heaven for a girl to be beautiful, so that she could attract the people she liked better.
When you grow up and put on your wedding dress, you'll thank God for such a beautiful face.
Now that she had finally grown up, she still had a beautiful face in the mirror. She had never been self-deprecating, had never felt that she was not pretty enough. Everyone said that she was beautiful, so she knew that she was.
However...
However, she was no longer naive. She already knew that there were a lot of beautiful people in this world, and there would never be a lack of beautiful people by that man's side.
A face couldn't tie his heart, nor could it curry favor with him. Even when she was at her best, she couldn't grab his heart. Now that she was like this, he probably hated it even more.
She was prettier than many other women. Other people would call her 'Great Beauty Gu' when they see her, but she was humble because she loved someone.
She fell in love with that man who didn't care about his appearance, but because of this, her heart was hurt. This virtue of his was truly a double-edged sword. It made her love him deeply, but it also pierced her heart.
Sighing in his heart, Gu Zhi Qiu walked out and decided not to go to his room. He shouldn't be waiting for her anyway.
As he neared the window, he realized that it was already raining. The window was full of raindrops, and after blinking his eyes, Gu Zhi Qiu suddenly remembered that the picture he drew in the courtyard was still there, and she drew it on that day. With careful and meticulous effort, she made it rain and it was ruined.
He hastily turned around, and while carefully protecting his neck, Gu Zhi Qiu walked out. In front of the door, when he opened the door, he took out an umbrella and opened it, causing him to feel the coldness of the autumn rain, which instantly hit her shoulders. Just a moment ago, he saw that it had just rained a little, but now it was raining anxiously.
In any case, it was just a short distance away, so he shouldn't catch a cold after returning with the painting.
Gu Zhi Qiu hurriedly walked forward, not daring to run as she was afraid of injuring the wound on her neck. In the darkness of the night, only the dim yellow light and rain could be seen, and her surroundings were extremely quiet. Gu Zhi Qiu saw a person standing in the rain in front of his painting from a distance.
At first, when Gu Zhi Qiu thought that she had seen wrongly, she was shocked. When she walked in a little bit more, she saw that she was stunned.
Li Shao Han?
He was looking at the painting, and when he heard a sound, he looked back and saw Gu Zhi Qiu smiling slightly: "The painting is fine, it's just that I'm soaked, and I don't know how to take it back. If I were to come across it, the painting would definitely be flowered."
Under the curtain of rain, Li Shao Han's black hair shone down onto his fair cheeks, and his gorgeous lips were washed by the rain, turning crimson.
The graceful youth was independent from the rest, and Li Zhan Chen had the same appearance as him a few years ago …
Gu Zhi Qiu's heart trembled as she hurriedly rushed forward, raising the umbrella above his head and frowning as she looked at him.
What was he doing? It was just a painting after all. At worst, she could just paint it again.
"Let me hold up the umbrella. Lifting your hand like this isn't good for your neck." Li Shao Han said as he took the umbrella. Naturally, he leaned the umbrella towards Gu Zhi Qiu.
Gu Zhi Qiu didn't have a scribble board in her hand, so she didn't know how to talk to Li Shao Han.
Li Shao Han looked at her, as he had something to say. Frowning, he said somewhat reproachfully, "Why did you come out wearing only this? My suit is soaked, so I can't let you wear it. "
Gu Zhi Qiu bit her lips and waved her hand, indicating that she was fine. She didn't know if she understood, and it was really inconvenient to not speak, but Gu Zhi Qiu could feel it now.
Pointing his finger at the drawing, Li Shao Han understood and laughed: "Hmm, let's quickly take the drawing and go back. The rain is really cool."
Gu Zhi Qiu picked up the painting from within Li Shao Han's umbrella.
Li Shao Han squinted his eyes and protected her from the rain, the two umbrellas were almost up to her head, the attack on his back was large, but he still opened his mouth to speak to her: "It's really beautiful, when I look at that full persimmon like appearance, I can't help but want to bite, but seeing that the real persimmon is not as lovable, compared to me, I do not really like to eat persimmons. Sister-in-law, you like to eat persimmon, right?
Gu Zhi Qiu nodded her head, but that was not the case.
She didn't really like persimmon, but she always felt that it was better to agree with them.
Gu Zhi Qiu and the others put down the umbrella. Seeing her wet appearance, Li Shao Han smiled helplessly at Gu Zhi Qiu: "Sister-in-law, if I catch a cold, you have to compensate me."
Gu Zhi Qiu put down the painting, and quickly went to the washroom on the first floor to get a large towel, and give it to Li Shao Han.
He really did look like he was going to catch a cold.
As Li Shao Han looked at the towel that she passed over, he slyly raised his long and narrow eyes and leaned over to her: "Hair, sister-in-law will help me wipe it."
Gu Zhi Qiu frowned, she pushed him on the shoulder and passed him the towel, telling him to clean it herself and not play around.
Li Shao Han refused, and said coldly: "Sister-in-law, if you don't clean it for me, I will go take a cold and then implicate you. At that time, you have to make me some ginger tea and even cook for me."
Gu Zhi Qiu knitted her eyebrows and stared at him. Li Shao Han leaned over to her gently and said: "It's not like there's a servant watching here. Sister-in-law, help me wipe it off, I really feel like I'm going to catch a cold. My hair is so cold."
Gu Zhi Qiu looked at the drawing and sighed, then placed the big towel on Li Shao Han's head. Li Shao Han immediately bent down to let her have a better look at him.
The soft and warm towel felt very comfortable to rub on his hair. Li Shao Han smiled, and smiled in a place that Gu Zhi Qiu couldn't see.
"So warm, so comfortable."
Gu Zhi Qiu just frowned, she still did not understand, and did not understand Li Shao Han's gentleness, but continued to feel Li Shao Han's gentleness, and she will … She wanted Li Zhan Chen's gentleness more and more.
Raising his head, Gu Zhi Qiu looked at the second floor.
In her heart, she really longed for that man's gentleness. If he could not give her, then perhaps he would be a bit more ruthless and hurt her more, and maybe she would be free.
