Marry her for life

  Gu Cheng went to the law firm with injuries on the second day, around 10 o'clock. The two police officers in charge of this car accident case brought him a piece of good news and a piece of bad news.

  The good news is that the police have caught the real culprit of the night; and the bad news is that the culprit was hired by someone, but it's not because of a major economic case that Qi Lei is handling, but rather the Liang Xikun case.

  The car accident that night was actually aimed at him, but Qi Ke's itchy hands made him drive and become the scapegoat.

  After the two police officers left, Gu Cheng's expression turned solemn.

  Li's case was concluded last Friday, he did not spare any effort and finally got Li sentenced to three years in prison for "manslaughter", losing this case.

  He could have won, but he didn't want to win, and Su Ju also hoped he wouldn't win.

  More than half a month ago, when he went to the police station to bail out Liang Xikun that night, Su said: "You not only cannot bail him out, but also, you have to send him to prison. I want him safe."

  Gu Cheng Ge didn't know why Su Ju wanted Liang Xi Kun to be safe, but this was also what he hoped for.

  Now someone is taking revenge on him because of this case. The person who takes revenge must be the one who does not want Liang Xikun to go to jail, and the person who does not want...

  It wouldn't be Liang Jin, let alone their friendship, just that night when Liang Xike called him into Director Su's office, he should have understood something.

  And apart from Liang Jin, who else will there be?

  ……

  "Old Gu, your phone is ringing!" He Bizheng's loud voice interrupted his train of thought. "I've already told you to stay home and rest, no need to come to the office. This time your brain isn't listening, the phone rang so loudly and you didn't even react."

  Gu Cheng's song did not respond to his endless chatter.

  The phone call was made by Director Su, who is in charge of investigating the Fu Qing case from nine years ago.

  Su Ju said from the other end: "Fu Qing's case has made new progress, I'm not convenient to reveal details for now. You go remind Liang Jin that kid to pay attention to safety. Also, you be careful yourself."

  Gu Cheng's song is even more worrying: why would it put Liang Jin in danger?

  Taking a taxi to CC software, Liang Jin nodded his head after hearing his reminder. He said: "Brother Gu, even if you didn't remind me, I knew it already. That night at the police station, Dad said that if he went to prison, I must pay attention to safety."

  "What else did you say?"

  Liang Jin shook his head: "No." He paused for a moment and then said, "But I know Dad is helping the police catch drug traffickers. One time I heard him inform the police of the location where the drug dealers were trading drugs..."

  Gu Cheng's song is vaguely understood now.

  It was almost noon when I returned, and on the way, I received a call from Zhao Zimo.

  She asked anxiously on the other end of the phone: "Cheng Ge, where are you? I'm at your doorstep with lunch for you!"

  He rushed over and she was both heartbroken and resentful: "You're injured, why don't you just rest at home properly!"

  "Silly girl, I'm fine." Gu Chengge gently stroked her head and entered the house, "You have class, no need to run around, I can order takeout."

  Zhao Zimo hurriedly followed up: "I'm fine, I don't have class until 2 o'clock this afternoon, I can make it."

  While eating, Zhao Zimo wanted to speak but hesitated. Gu Chengge smiled and looked at her with a hint of curiosity, asking: "Do you have something to tell me?"

  Zhao Zimo nodded cautiously.

  Gu Cheng saw that Ping Ri had a serious expression on her face, as if what she was about to say was somewhat severe.

  "You speak, I listen carefully."

  Zhao Zimo looked at him carefully: "Cheng Ge, will you resent my mother?"

  Gu Cheng's song stopped abruptly, and he turned his head to look at her sideways.

  Zhao Zimo's eyes sank, and he suddenly asked: "I already know that when you were three years old, it was my mother who took you to witness that tragic event. You must have known it was her, right? Will you hate my mother for taking you there?"

  Gu Cheng continued eating, his voice light: "Did your mom tell you about me?" Had she also recognized him? Or rather, had she recognized him by name alone?

  "My mom didn't tell me." Zhao Zimo hastily denied, she was sleeping at home last night and unintentionally overheard her mom and dad talking about this matter. "Anyway, don't ask how I knew, I just want to know, will you resent her?"

  Will she be implicated if she is resentful?

  She didn't ask this sentence out loud, she waited for his answer.

  But Gu Cheng's song is silent and wordless.

  With each passing minute, Zhao Zimo's mood became increasingly heavy.

  Gu Cheng continued to eat in silence, seemingly lost in thought. Zhao Zi quietly cleared the table and went out to throw away the trash.

  After throwing away the trash, Gu Cheng Ge was sitting on the sofa, awkwardly using his left hand to dig into his right ear. Seeing her come in, he said: "A Mo, come and help me dig my ears."

  He didn't respond to her question, Zhao Zimo was already in a bad mood, but seeing his injured right hand, he couldn't bear it and went over to take the ear-picking tool from him.

  At first she stood beside him, but seeing that he seemed uncomfortable with his neck twisted, she sat down on the sofa next to him and patted the ample thigh: "Lie over here."

  He glanced at her legs tightly wrapped in jeans and hesitated for a moment before lying down sideways.

  She pinched his earlobe and carefully scooped out the wax, her movements light and slow. His cheek rested on her soft thigh as she sat beside him to clean his right ear. As he lay down, his face was pressed inward, facing her flat abdomen.

  Her upper body leaned forward slightly, he raised his eyelids slightly, and he could see the bulging part above; he closed his eyes, but he could clearly smell the fragrance of the girl's scent; his nose, his mouth, just a little bit further forward, could touch hers...

  My heart skipped a beat for a moment.

  Zhao Zimo suddenly felt that his pinched ear was a bit hot, and when he looked around his ear, it was a large area of bright red.

  "Did I hurt you?" she asked. She was puzzled in her heart, she obviously didn't pull or tug, so why did his ears turn bright red!

  And...

  His entire face is flushed!

  "Isn't..." Gu Cheng's voice was hoarse.

  Zhao Zimo: "......"

  Gu Cheng got up and said, "No more, it was just an itch in my ear." He lowered his head and went straight into the bathroom. After a burst of water sounds, he wiped the water off his face and came out.

  "Class is about to start, you should head back to school."

  Zhao Zimo glanced at her phone, "It's only one o'clock, it's still early." She really wanted to know what kind of mood he was in regarding his mom.

  Gu Cheng Ge picked her up and gently touched his lips to hers, "A Mo, let's go back, I want to rest for a while."

  He half-pushed and half-embraced her out, but at the door he didn't send her any further, only trying to keep his voice calm as he reminded her: "Be careful on the road."

  Since he wanted to rest, Zhao Zimo also didn't stay any longer, but his mood was not as relaxed as usual.

  As he watched her disappear around the corner of the stairs, Gu Cheng Ge reached out to touch his heart, which was still racing wildly.

  He was determined to spend his whole life with Amu.

  Then what kind of feeling should he have towards her mother, Kitano Kiyoyuki?

  At the age of three, he didn't remember anything except for that shocking and bloody scene. He even forgot why he saw that tragic event. It wasn't until later when his grandmother told him that it was someone named Kitano Kiyoharu who took him there.

  It's not that there wasn't such an assumption. What if Noriyuki Higashiyama hadn't taken him to the scene at first, wouldn't he have had a free and easy childhood?

  But then again, she took him there to reform his mother, didn't expect such a tragic scene to happen, so there's nothing to resent.

  Besides, now he wants Ah Mo, wants her whole life, so for her mother, he doesn't mind, after all, those are already in the past, what he wants to have is a future with Ah Mo.

  He immediately called her after figuring all these out.

  He said: "Ah Mo, I am calm and peaceful about people and things from when I was three years old."

  Just like he clearly knew that Fu Qianyu had shot his birth mother, he still wanted to do something within his power to help her wash away the injustice, because his own son died at the hands of his birth mother, and she had raised him for ten years...

  The complicated love and hate are entangled together, he doesn't know how to resent or hate, so he becomes an apathetic person, striking off those inextricable gratitude and resentment with a single stroke.

  Zhao Zimo let out a sigh of relief on the other end: "Cheng Ge, thank you."

  He is able to love until he removes the thorns from his heart, and she is willing to repay him with infinite deep affection.

  Gu Cheng's song is silently smiling at this end.

  After a few seconds of silence, Gu Cheng said: "A Mo, we'll keep in touch by phone for the time being. Don't come looking for me."

  Zhao Zimo was shocked: "Why?" In fact, he still couldn't face it calmly, could he?

  Gu Cheng said lightly: "Qi Hui is injured, the law firm will be busier, that big economic case of his, I may have to take over."

  Su said he himself also needs to be careful and can't let her accompany him in taking risks.

  In fact, even if he didn't say it, Zhao Zimo probably wouldn't have had time to look for him during this period, she was simply too busy.

  Gu Chengxi and Shi Xiaofei have been feeling down and gloomy lately, with furrowed brows. Jiang Jiang has spent most of her free time in the hospital taking care of and accompanying Qi Lei, so the responsibility of comforting and consoling these two has fallen on her shoulders.

  Considering that Gu Chengxi, who had always been calm and collected, was now acting more seriously, not only was she depressed and preoccupied, but her eyes also looked strange, Zhao Zimo decided to solve her problem first.

  That afternoon, there were no classes. Zhao Zimo found Gu Chengxi on the rooftop of the dormitory building, sitting in a corner, silently crying.

  Zhao Zimo sat down beside her, pinching his nose and speaking in a strange tone: "Classmate Gu Chengxi, now there's an emotional trash can next to you. Whatever makes you unhappy, you can pour it all in. The emotional trash can is your faithful companion! After hearing the 'beep' sound, you can start pouring out your emotional garbage! Pay attention, beep - A!"

  Gu Chengxi glanced silently at the person next to him who was fooling around, his eyes slightly strange, and finally said faintly: "I'm fine, I just have some small conflicts with A Yan."

  Zhao Zimo scratched his head: "Xixi, it's not me saying this to you, but sometimes you're too willful towards Xiao Chuyan..."

  "This time it's not me being arbitrary." Gu Cheng Xi interrupted her.

  Zhao Zimo: "What? What? What?"

  Gu Cheng looked at her with a hint of resentment in his eyes: "A Mo, I didn't know you were the mayor's daughter, I didn't know you and A Yan had been a couple in front of your elders all along, I didn't know A Yan's father had already decided that you and A Yan would end up together, I didn't know..."

  Her voice became increasingly choked, and eventually she couldn't speak anymore.

  "Xixi." Zhao Zimo composed himself, "I can explain these things to you. Yes, my father is the mayor, but we've been friends for so many years and have never asked about each other's families, that's our unspoken agreement; as for me and Xiao Chuyan being a couple in front of our elders, that's just what they think, we've grown up together since childhood and it's inevitable to be misunderstood, but we've never publicly declared anything; as for Wang Bo recognizing that I would end up with him, that's just his one-sided wishful thinking. Now and in the future, the one who will be with me is your brother. I think what you should worry about isn't these miscellaneous things, but whether Xiao Chuyan's feelings towards you are true or not?"

  This speech, this heartfelt and sincere talk, made Gu Cheng's tears flow even more fiercely.

  "Amo, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to blame you. I just don't know what to do..." She hung her head low, "A Yan's father suddenly came to find me and told me those things, although he didn't say it outright, but I knew he was telling me to leave A Yan."

  "Does Xiao Chuyan know that Uncle Wang has looked for you?"

  Gu Cheng shook his head. "He doesn't know, I don't dare tell him."

  "Alright, Xixi." Zhao Zimo put his arm around her shoulder. "I'm not very familiar with emotional things either, but if I were you, I would try my best to fight for it. Xiao Chuyan is sincere towards you, and if you're really determined about him, then bravely go for it and fight for Wang's recognition of you. Of course, you don't have to rush into anything right now, and there's no need to confront him head-on. As long as Xiao Chuyan remains true to you, the future is long."

  Gu Chengxi would take what measures to deal with Xiao Chuyan's father, Zhao Zimo did not know, she only knew that the worry between Gu Chengxi's eyebrows slowly dissipated a lot.

  At the same time, she also served as Shi Xiaofei's emotional trash can.

  The reason for Shi Xiaofei's depression is related to Zhou Dai.

  By the twilight of the azalea, Shi Xiao Fei said with a sorrowful tone: "Didn't Zhou Dai's mom pass away in a car accident after being chased by someone some time ago? I've been accompanying Zhou Dai all along, but Cong Rong and her mom Cong Zhu Zhi have also been around. After the funeral, Cong Rong seemed to want to win Zhou Dai back, and Cong Zhu Zhi kept saying that they had already gotten approval from both families, and even held a banquet in the countryside before, which means engagement according to local customs..."

  Zhao Zimo raised an eyebrow: "So you've been thinking about it all along, whether they would rekindle their old flame?"

  "They've rekindled their old romance, haven't they?" Shi Xiaofei slumped her shoulders, "The last time I saw Zhou Dai was when he and Cong Rong were embracing..."

  "Then you haven't accompanied Zhou Dai again?" Seeing Shi Xiaofei nod, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Even I, a love retard, know that by doing this, you're really pushing Zhou Dai to Cong Rong!"

  It is really true that onlookers see more of the game than the players themselves!

  Shi Xiao Fei was shocked.

  "What am I supposed to do?"

  "If it were me, I would directly ask Zhou Dai if he and Cong Rong have rekindled their old flame. No matter what the outcome is, it's better to die early than to drag on a lifeless existence. The iron law of romance novels says that misunderstandings can kill people! Although life isn't like in the books, trust issues are very important because they originate from life itself. Oh, these few sentences were said by Gu Chengxi, not my original words."

  Shi Xiao Fei: *silence*

  Shi Xiaofei finally didn't directly ask Zhou Dai, Zhao Zimo didn't ask, only knowing that she suddenly became very powerful, every day fiercely practicing her gaze.

  Also, he asked her to visit his mother Xiao Jie at the psychiatric hospital, on the grounds that they should seize every minute and second to move towards success.

  And during this time, these things were still not enough to keep Zhao Zimo busy.

  Under her careful planning, Gu Cheng's special program was broadcast smoothly on the campus channel. This episode of the show set a record for the highest ratings in the "Small Lotus" column group. Director Yu Ao fulfilled his promise and Zhao Zimo officially became a formal employee of the Radio and Television Center.

  She made her first phone call to share the good news with Gu Chengge.

  As soon as the phone rang, Zhao Zimo exclaimed: "Cheng Ge, I'm also a working professional now! Can you come out and celebrate with me tonight?"

  Gu Cheng couldn't help but be happy for her: "Congratulations, Ah Mo, however..." He paused for a moment, "Recently we probably won't have time to go out, let's celebrate when you get your salary."

  Zhao Zimo was extremely disappointed.

  "Alright, next time."

  Who made herself find a busy boyfriend!

  However, she didn't have time to be discouraged, as Director Yu gave her a work arrangement.

  As she was still a student, she was only given an assistant position, and this so-called assistant did not belong to any column. She had to do everything but didn't have to work every day. She only needed to submit the course schedule for the entire semester, and each column group would arrange tasks based on her schedule.

  That afternoon, Zhao Zimo had no classes and went to the TV station for work. He then received his first assignment: a nameless female corpse was found in an abandoned well in Taoshan Village, and he was sent to assist a reporter with on-site interviews and reporting.

  Unidentified female corpse...

  Zhao Zimo shivered slightly and then got on the car.

  Taoyuan Village is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, under the jurisdiction of Yingchun City, but it is very far from the city center. When the TV station's car arrived at the scene of the crime, the police of Fengcheng Public Security Bureau had already arrived and set up a cordon, surrounded by many villagers watching, and reporters who rushed to the scene could only take pictures outside the cordon.

  Weeds grew wildly beside the abandoned well, and police were fishing out a woman's corpse.

  Zhao Zimo stared nervously at the well opening.

  Uh...

  This would be her first time in life seeing a dead person's corpse...

  The scene suddenly flashed with frequent flashes of light.

  The female corpse was fished out, naked all over, not wearing a single thread, her face covered with wet hair, unable to see her facial features, but apparently a young woman.

  When the police brushed aside the wet hair covering the corpse's face, revealing a delicate-looking face, Zhao Zimo couldn't help but let out a sharp cry.

  "Chong Rong!"

  A female police officer immediately came over.

  "Miss, did you know the deceased?"

  Zhao Zimo's hand was trembling as he nodded: "I know her, she is our school's senior sister."

  Zhao Zimo was then taken away by police on the grounds of assisting with their investigation.
