In Gu Chaoxi's eyes, there is no difference between men and women. They are only divided into two kinds: those who want to kill and those who can take them as their subordinates. So he never thought about romantic love, always sneered at those sentimental love stories, and half joked that Mo Changting's early marriage ruined his great future.
When he first met Bu Qingyi, this idea did not change immediately.
In fact, when he saw Bu Qingyi for the first time, he was even disgusted and disgusted. That kind of meeting is absolutely not good for anyone, so that for a long time, bu Qingyi did not allow anyone to mention that day and those things.
Monthly collection.
It's a market for people in poor places.
Bu Qingyi's memory of her parents and family is very shallow. She only knows that her family is not poor. Her parents took her in a carriage to go somewhere, but she was robbed on the way. The robber killed her parents, but ignored her hidden under the seat by her mother. Long after the robbers left, she climbed out of the seat with tears in her eyes.
A moment ago, there were three people in the family. In the twinkling of an eye, she became a lonely and homeless orphan.
At the age of seven, in order to survive, bu Qingyi kept walking among strange markets, begging for a mouthful of food and a drink of water. She met a shrew who kicked her down and a man who didn't mean well, and the memory of being expelled by scolding is countless.
Later, she was left by a peasant family to feed her and wash her. She thought she met a kind person, but she was taken to the monthly fair the next day.
It was there that she met the person who changed her life.
Later, Gu Chaoxi mentioned that he couldn't remember what he was going to do when he went to Yueji that day. He only remembered that he saw many people in cages or tied up on Yueji. Those people are numb, eyes absent, as if they have succumbed to the fate of the arrangement, to be sold to strangers as cattle and horses as fate.
Except for a little girl.
The little girl was locked in a chicken cage, so small that even the bigger dog couldn't get in. The skinny girl tried her best to curl up in the cage, and her thin back was still squeezed out of the dark red mark by the board.
However, even so, the little girl did not show the same despair as others. She did not say a word, staring at the passers-by, as if to guess who would buy her.
Dormant, waiting for the opportunity.
It's a killer instinct.
The little girl's reaction attracted Gu Chaoxi and made him walk slowly. It was this moment of hesitation that made the little girl see a glimmer of life. Her slim arm stretched out the cage and her muddy hand seized a corner of his robe.
The master of Luan Xue Pavilion, who is quick and can play with his fingers, didn't hide. He was just in the same place.
At that time, Gu was accompanied by Mo Changting. He was worried that such rude behavior would annoy the young and domineering Pavilion leader. He bent down to break the little girl's hand. But the child would not let go of anything, tightly pursed his lips, stubbornly grasped the last hope, with a pair of black and white eyes staring at Gu day and night, without the slightest fear.
It is true that the noble people who have angered the people walking around are likely to be killed on the spot. This kind of thing happens from time to time on the monthly fair. But Gu Chaoxi's four eyes were opposite for a moment. Young Bu Qingyi had a premonition that this person was the Savior who could take her away.
He's her only chance to live.
One tried to raise his head, the other looked down from a high position, and the two looked at each other for half a day.
When Mo Changting finally broke off the little girl's hand, he felt a little guilty about accidentally hurting her hand. Suddenly, Gu's casual voice came from his ear.
"Changting, pay for it."
As usual, without any bargaining, or even a little inquiry, the young and vigorous cabinet owner announced the ownership of another item directly.
At that time, the brave little girl who dared to grab the corner of his coat was just an object for him.
Two rounds of money.
This is the price of Bu Qingyi at that time.
Mo Changting takes out the money, cuts the cage with a sword, and pulls out Bu Qingyi. Looking at her in front of her, she is a little worried. Although he knows that Gu Chaoxi has plans to cultivate killers, such a weak child is not suitable, let alone a girl.
Is it just a moment of compassion?
Mo Changting turns to ask Gu Chaoxi with his eyes. Unexpectedly, Gu Chaoxi doesn't plan to answer him at all. He drops a word and turns to leave.
"Buy her something to eat. Don't let her die on the way."
Gu has always been like this, cold face and hard heart. No one in the pavilion dares to be close to him, except Mo Changting, because they met and grew up together. In fact, in the two months after buying Bu Qingyi back to luanxuege, he didn't even look at her. He didn't think she was different from other people, but he hated her more.
On this point, bu Qingyi has a deep memory.
Mo Changting took care of her all the way from leaving the dirty chicken coop to wandering to luanxuege. After living in luanxuege, Mo Changting ordered people to buy her new clothes and send her some meals every day, so that Qin Chuan could teach her some basic skills.For two months, she only met Gu Chaoxi when she was looking for Qin Chuan, and he ignored her every time.
She has been hiding in a small corner of the snow Pavilion in fear, just looking for a chance to say thank you to him, but it has been fruitless. Finally, when he was ready to leave, he summoned up courage to catch up with him and hold him by the corner of his coat, but he frowned and slapped him away angrily.
At that moment, bu Qingyi suddenly realized that she was rejected.
"The girl in Qingyi had a stubborn temper since she was a child. After being patted by the pavilion leader, she felt that the pavilion leader looked down on her and began to hide from the pavilion leader. She also threw away the clothes that the pavilion leader asked me to send her This girl, she later learned that the Lord of the cabinet felt that she had gone too far and bought it for her as compensation. "
Mo Changting looked up and saw the sun falling from the mottled bamboo leaves, squinting and laughing.
When she was young, bu Qingyi was more stubborn and smelly than now. She was the only one who dared not give Gu Chaoxi face. He lost the new clothes he had sent him, held his little body against the door and refused to let him in. He also learned from him and deliberately didn't look him in the eye
At that time, bu Qingyi lived in a negative mood, but for Mo Changting and others, she was just the killer of Gu Chaoxi, and the only lively joy in the cold atmosphere of luanshuege.
It was also during that period that the disgust in Gu's eyes began to dissipate and gradually turned into appreciation.
"The identity and tasks assigned by the cabinet leader to Qingyi are outspoken, and Qingyi is also strong. No matter how hard the training is, Qingyi sticks to it. Lao Qin's character, you know, is more true than anyone else. Qingyi was tired to faint several times under his harsh training and got injured from time to time. However, just because she worked so hard, the pavilion leader's attitude towards her gradually improved, and even... "
It's even starting to taste bad.
When Bu Qingyi was 13 years old, Gu Chaoxi did not hide his special care for her, and almost everyone knew it. But at that time, bu Qingyi was still young. In the face of Gu Chaoxi's kindness to her, he didn't think much about it. He still got along with him as usual.
She didn't know that the more she didn't like it, the harder it was for Gu to give up.
Later, when Gu Chaoxi was about to express his love, bu Qingyi finally realized it and understood the heat in his eyes. However, she did not give Gu any response, until the rebellion happened, Gu still did not wait for the result he wanted.
"It's rare for a man to be as affectionate as Lord Gu. I really don't understand why sister Qingyi always evades him and refuses to face that feeling? Is it because of fear? Or Does she feel inferior? "
Feng Luo's question made Mo Changting laugh: "you don't know much about Qingyi. She never feels inferior because of her identity, and she is not the kind of person who attaches importance to lintel. As for fear, I don't think it should be counted. She refused to respond to the feelings of the Lord. She chose to turn a blind eye and pretend not to know, probably because she didn't have that kind of feelings for the Lord. "
"If she doesn't like Mr. Gu, why don't she just say it? Should sister Qingyi be a very straightforward person? "
Mo Changting nodded, then shook his head: "she really doesn't like to beat around the Bush, and she doesn't treat her feelings like other women. I guess it's a kind of protection she gives to the Lord. "
Gu's heart is higher than the sky, and he has a domineering personality. Everything he wants is never lost. Bu Qingyi knew him so well that she was afraid that her refusal would make Gu Chaoxi get into a corner, or completely destroy the relationship between her and Gu Chaoxi, so she chose to escape.
Although they have different feelings for each other, they regard each other as the most important people in their lives.
I don't want to cheat against my heart, and I don't want to let the relationship break down and lose the most important person, so I can only choose to escape and not face it.
Until the end, the most harmful ending to Gu didn't appear, but it was not perfect. After all, he died with countless feelings and regrets.
If Bu Qingyi had any regrets in his life, he should have failed to give a clear answer to Gu Chaoxi.
What would have happened if he had obeyed his wishes, pretended to love him and married him? If she had been more cruel and listened to Gu all the time, what would be the result now?
No one can give Bu Qingyi an answer.
Some things once missed, can only regret, can not be retrieved.
In the carriage, Qin Chuan quietly wakes up and pretends to be sleepy. He closes his eyes and listens to the clear conversation outside.
It was the same scene when Gu Chaoxi and bu Qingyi kept abreast of each other. It was the picture he wanted to protect most besides being with his wife and children.
Loyal to a person, not only to his career, his ambition, his future, but also to his feelings and hopes. Since the Lord likes Qingyi, he should try to get them together. No one else is qualified to have her except the Lord.
For many years, Qin Chuan thought so.
What about Qingyi? Is it not important for her thoughts and happiness to take care of the girl who is always dependent on him?Qin Chuan had thought about these problems many times, but none of them was as heavy in his mind as at this time.
