The ex-wife is rebellious, which makes the CEO feel troubled

Chapter 347 Why Should I Choose You?

Ning Xi did not answer, but just tried to break free from Gu Huaijing's hand.

This time, his attitude was appropriately firm. "The master just said that from now on, it is best for two people to burn incense together."

"Just think of it as for the children."

Before she finished speaking, Ning Xi suddenly turned her head and said in a cold voice: "When did you consider this child?"

Ever since the two became partners, Ning Xi has usually been indifferent to Gu Huaijing and rarely has such intense emotions.

Gu Huaijing had lived a life of luxury for more than 20 years and had never been questioned like this. But now, apart from guilt and self-blame, all he felt was heartache for Ning Xi.

"...Whether you believe it or not, I really hope that this child can be born safely." Thinking of Rong Qingyun's instructions, Gu Huaijing frankly revealed his secret thoughts, "The child is indeed born because of me... Can you give me a chance to atone for my sins now?"

His tone was light, gentler than usual.

"During this time, I burned incense and prayed in the temple, and also built many schools in the mountainous areas with the help of funding. All of these will be counted for our child. I don't expect you to forgive me now, I just want to tell you that I care about him as much as you do."

Every word and sentence made Ning Xi feel uncomfortable.

She couldn't help but look up at Gu Huaijing, trying to find some sign of hesitation on his face, but she only saw genuine determination in his eyes.

"It's too late to say anything now." After a day of suffering from the pain of losing her child, Ning Xi felt tired and realized belatedly, "No matter what I do, my child will never come back."

At this moment, Ning Xi really needed someone to understand and share her pain.

But that person should not be Gu Huaijing.

Ning Xi turned her head, held back the sourness in her nose, and took a deep breath.

She didn't want to go over the past with Gu Huaijing again, but since the problem was right in front of her, she had to face it eventually.

"If there are any rituals or incense burnings that require my presence, I will come. As for the rest, there is no point in talking about it."

Gu Huaijing was stunned. Before he could recover from her words "it's meaningless", Ning Xi had already walked away quickly.

……

City A, underground casino in Jinzui District.

Night is the busiest time of the year for casinos, with people of all walks of life gathering together. Although the place is not very big, it is bustling with people and full of decadence.

"Brother Zhao, why did you come here in person today?"

Zhao Weiming took the cigarette handed to him by his subordinate and took a deep puff, as if he was venting something.

Ever since the last attempt to frame Wen's for plagiarism failed, Guo Haipeng was furious and even looked down upon him, a senior veteran. In addition, in order to escape the lawsuit, he had been hiding from place to place for a while and even didn't dare to stay in the company.

Finally, he hid in the underground casino where he had invested.

Thinking of Guo Haipeng's scolding, Zhao Weiming was furious and said angrily: "Do you still have to control when I come? Get out of here!"

Qian Xuan didn't dare to talk back after being scolded. He helped him light the fire and then stood aside obediently.

Zhao Weiming blew out smoke rings and looked at the flow of people in the casino. He took a breath and asked, "How is the business in the casino recently?"

Qian Xuan said quickly, "It's pretty good. There are football matches abroad these two days, and there are many people betting on football. Our turnover is increasing rapidly. But... there is a person who likes to buy on credit."

"Who?"

Just as Qian Xuan was about to open his mouth to reply, he heard a man's angry scolding from the other side.

"Who the hell are you looking down on?!"

The man in the blue suit overturned the small table and pointed at a waiter opposite him angrily.

Qian Xuan pursed his lips and said, "Brother Zhao, that's him."

The two walked over, and Qian Xuan was the first to come out to smooth things over: "Hey, Master Lin, what's wrong? We came here to have some fun, why do you have to make yourself unhappy?"

The young man waved his hand and said, "Stop pretending to be a good guy! Everyone is laughing at me now that I have lost my power!"

As soon as he said his last name was Lin, and after a quick look up and down, Zhao Weiming had an idea.

Isn’t this Lin Qiyu, the youngest and useless son of the Lin family?

Looking at the farce in front of him, Zhao Weiming suddenly came up with a plan...

Lin Qiyu was soon invited to the VIP room.

Zhao Weiming lowered his attitude and said, "Mr. Lin, how about this apology? Do you like it?"

Lin Qiyou snorted coldly, "Not bad, you have some good sense. I will remember you."

Zhao Weiming tried his best and finally made Lin Qiyu happy.

After three rounds of drinking, Lin Qiyu was a little dazed and muttered something cursing at someone, saying things like "taking advantage of the fire" and "extortion".

Zhao Weiming listened carefully and his eyes immediately lit up.

He was talking about the names of Gu Huaijing and Ning Xi!

"If you ask me, your methods are not bad. The Gu family and the Wen family are just teaming up to bully others. I have long been fed up with them." Zhao Weiming immediately sat next to Lin Qiyou and urged, "I have a way to teach them a lesson. I just don't know if Master Lin is willing to try it."

After hearing this, Lin Qiyou sobered up a little, and asked doubtfully: "What do you have in mind?"

Zhao Weiming leaned over and whispered a few words. Lin Qiyou's interest grew stronger and stronger, and finally he slammed the table.

"Okay! This time, I will definitely teach him a lesson!"

……

It was already the end of the month, and Ning Xi carefully assigned all the affairs of the embroidery workshop to Rong Qingyun and Zhang Xiaoxiao.

Zhang Xiaoxiao held a pile of fabrics that Ning Xi had chosen and asked blankly, "Boss Ning, where are you going?"

Ning Xi said calmly: "On a business trip."

Going on a business trip to H City.

A national pharmaceutical company seminar will be held in H City. As a leading Chinese medicine company, Wen's will naturally participate. In response to the requirements of the meeting, a partner from a pharmaceutical-related project must be selected to attend the meeting together.

Before Ning Xi had time to think about the candidate, Gu Huaijing, who got the news, took the initiative to knock on the door of her CEO's office.

"...Why do you think I would choose you?" Ning Xi put down the document and looked up at him.

Gu Huaijing was asked this question by her, but his expression remained calm: "Because none of your partners can surpass the Gu Group."

His tone was so sincere that Ning Xi was unable to refute for a moment.

Indeed, Wen's Group has cooperated with quite a few conscientious old-established enterprises, but in terms of status, none of them can be compared with Gu's.

In the end, Ning Xi tacitly agreed to his proposal.

This seminar will last for a week, and H City is a famous tourist city. Ning Xi prepared a travel guide in advance and planned to visit it during her business trip.

The two agreed to meet at the airport on Wednesday. After boarding the plane, Ning Xi discovered that Gu Huaijing's seat was right next to her.

Ning Xi didn't say much. She closed her eyes and went to sleep after eating.

When they arrived at the hotel, the two suites that Gu Huaijing had booked in advance were next to each other on the same floor.

In response, Gu Huaijing said calmly: "We are close, so it is convenient to contact each other."

Ning Xi: "..."
