He kissed her on the lips

Gu Qingyao had thought that she could see everything rationally.

She used to think that she would be able to stand here with an incomparable amount of rationality, be able to calmly say goodbye to Li Muyan, and then go her separate ways, as if she was a countless number of people who had split their hands.

In front of so many people, there were even reporters on the side who were ready to make a move. She knew she should not have asked this question.

But she couldn't help it.

As long as she saw that Li Muyan was even half a step closer to other girls, she would not be able to resist.

Gu Qingyao stared intently into Li Muyan's eyes and asked word by word. "Mr. Li?"

There seemed to be a moment of softening in the depths of Li Muyan's eyes.

In the past few days, Gu Qingyao realized that Li Muyan seemed to have lost weight as the lines of his muscles became even more obvious.

Since you're not doing well, why insist on separating?

Gu Qingyao thought in her heart.

Li Muyan sighed lightly, and said: "I thought that we had already explained everything very clearly that day."

"We have another project in the pipeline."

"That's right, I will keep my investment in that project. Miss Gu, I will be your shareholder." Li Muyan said confidently, his voice also gentle.

Gu Qingyao was too familiar with this attitude. This was no different from doing business.

This kind of Li Muyan, who was a knowledgeable Young Master Li in the business world, was no longer her Li Muyan alone.

It was obvious that the Li Muyan at this moment was still a gentleman. However, she knew that her Li Muyan was no longer around.

Gu Qingyao was silent for a long while, then said: "I'll buy back the shares in your hands."

Li Muyan seemed to be startled, "Please forgive me for my bluntness, but the capital in your hands is temporarily insufficient for such a large change to take place. Furthermore, the company is at the beginning stages, if such a large shareholder change occurs, it is very likely that it will affect future financing, not to mention the credit rating …"

"Young Master Li, if everyone is a businessman, then I don't think that Young Master Li needs to consider that much. Gu Qingyao said in a heavy voice.

Her eyes were so stubborn as she stared straight at Li Muyan.

Li Muyan was a little helpless.

"I don't have the habit of working with ex-boyfriends." Gu Qingyao chuckled.

Li Muyan's movements became slightly stiff.

He looked at Gu Qingyao for a while, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Gu Qingyao's wrist, "Come out with me for a while."

"Mr. Li?"

"You said it yourself, I owe you an explanation. I'll return it to you now." Li Muyan's voice became even deeper, frighteningly cold.

Gu Qingyao did not make a sound, and followed along.

Only when the two of them reached the balcony did Li Muyan let go of Gu Qingyao's hand.

Gu Qingyao stretched slightly as she felt an indescribable sense of relief.

She looked at Li Muyan, her expression still unspeakably stubborn. Li Muyan felt a little helpless, and sighed lightly: "You saw my man?"

"Protect my people? Seeing that, there are a lot of people in Young Master Li's sect, so it's very obvious. " Gu Qingyao replied with a question: "Do you need me to pay the bill to Mr. Li? Though I think it's forced consumption... "

It was as if so many days of resentment had exploded in an instant that Gu Qingyao herself knew she shouldn't have said all this, but she couldn't control herself.

Li Muyan suddenly approached and directly kissed Gu Qingyao on the lips.

"Ugh …"

This kiss was almost an vent, and his actions were a little rough. His hands were clasped behind Gu Qingyao's head to death, but he still carefully controlled his strength, not harming Gu Qingyao in the slightest.

After a long while, until Gu Qingyao felt that she was about to suffocate, she finally let go.

For a moment, Gu Qingyao thought she saw the glint in Li Muyan's eyes.

But that was only the blink of an eye. Soon, he returned to his original appearance. He was calm and collected, like an emotionless robot.

He was strong, but he made it difficult for people to get close to him.

Gu Qingyao quietly sized Li Muyan up and was silent for a long time. Finally, she laughed: "You didn't know I was coming, right? The person who was originally on the list today is my mother. You didn't even attend last week's party.

"I shouldn't have approached you." Li Muyan said in a heavy voice.

"Why?" Gu Qingyao asked.

Her eyes were filled with unwillingness as she said in a hoarse voice, "I never felt that meeting you was a mistake, and that the two of us couldn't possibly be a hundred percent compatible. Since we love each other, we are destined to cross over all the contradictions and ravines together, and you have never given me the chance to choose."

The one who decided to stay together was Li Muyan, and the one who decided to leave without turning back was also Li Muyan.

"If you don't try, how do you know we can't go on?" Gu Qingyao asked hoarsely.

Li Muyan looked at Gu Qingyao with an unspeakable expression. After a long while, he finally said: "I never thought that we would be able to continue walking forward in the future."

Gu Qingyao opened her eyes wide.

Li Muyan laughed, then said indifferently: "I just want us to stay at a distance for now, that's all. Recently, Gu Yuanshan has been eyeing me, and if we had not interacted, he would not have shifted his focus to you."

Seeing Li Muyan's righteous attitude, Gu Qingyao gritted her teeth: "... "So you are deliberately putting on an act to deceive them."

Hearing Gu Qingyao's tone, Li Muyan knew that Gu Qingyao must be angry. He extended his hand out to touch Gu Qingyao's head, but Gu Qingyao dodged it without warning. "Li Muyan?"

She very rarely called Li Muyan by name, other than a few special moments.

For example, now …

Li Muyan's body froze and he coughed lightly: "Xiao Yao..."

"Do you doubt my acting, or do you think that I'm not strong enough to shoulder all these with you?"

"I'm ten years older than you, after all." Li Muyan reached out his hand and pulled Gu Qingyao to his side, "I shouldn't have pulled you directly into this mess."

"What if this is over, and I'm already with the others?" Gu Qingyao asked in frustration.

Li Muyan seemed to be startled, and then he laughed: "I'm pretty confident in myself."

Gu Qingyao laughed, but before she could say anything, she heard Li Muyan continue: "But, if that man is truly outstanding and suitable for you, and if he is compatible, I will bless you all."

"You're quite generous." Gu Qingyao felt depressed and said in a astringent tone.

"Gu Yuanshan will not easily allow you to be together with me, and what I want to know is, exactly what is this for. If it's just because of our seniority, it's nothing, I'm worried about …" Li Muyan's voice paused slightly.

Gu Qingyao said softly, "You suspect that Uncle's matter all those years ago was related to the Gu family, don't you?"

"Who told you this?" Li Muyan frowned, his expression cold and fierce.

"You told me some things, before …. I also asked Miss Yu. " Gu Qingyao said softly.
