C20 Hot Jade Pendant

"Because I like it."

"But this major isn't popular at the moment." He smiled.

"But I have a dream. I want to have a show or something in the future."

"Your father didn't seem to be someone you could easily find a job with. How did you convince him?" Gu Chengze seemed very interested in me learning to draw.

Whenever I was asked to paint, I became more talkative. "He really didn't agree at first, but then I went on a hunger strike at home."

"You still want a hunger strike?" Gu Chengze raised an eyebrow.

"Yes!" Not only did I go on a hunger strike, I also committed suicide to scare my father. " At this point, I felt a little embarrassed myself. "I'm my father's biological son. My father had no choice but to let me learn."

Gu Chengze nodded, indicating for me to continue.

"I originally chose this school because I heard that the Chinese painting in this school is a fine course. Only after coming here did I learn that there are only a few teachers who lecture well, and they are all external." After saying this, I felt discouraged.

Someone suddenly knocked on the door, and Gu Chengze called out to come in.

The steak was ready and the waiter placed the tray on the table.

Because Gu Chengze had ordered a bottle of red wine, the waiter had even brought a small candle to create an atmosphere.

The fruit salad was next to the red wine and looked very romantic.

After the waiter had gone out, Gu Chengze poured me a cup of wine, then poured himself another and held it up to me.

Although I have drunk red wine, but 82 years of Rafi has never had a drink, I only heard the price is scary. Such an expensive wine should be drunk with great seriousness. This must be something that a boyfriend brought his girlfriend here with him. Although Gu Chengze always said I was his wife, in my opinion, he was just a little better than a stranger and definitely not a boyfriend.

So I picked up the red glass and drank without touching it.

Under the candlelight, Gu Chengze smiled and looked at me: "You're in such a hurry to drink it, can you still drink it later?"

I shook my head. "I don't have any alcohol tolerance. If I drink anymore, I'll get drunk."

When Gu Chengze heard me say this, he also drank all the wine in his cup in one gulp: "Whatever you drink, I'll drink whatever you drink."

I felt a little sorry for him for saying so. Originally, he wanted to have a drink with me slowly. But I really didn't want to drink with him, so I took the initiative to talk to him now to make myself feel less guilty.

"You said that you've lived for many years, then what was your previous life like?"

"You want to hear it?" He took a knife and fork, cut the steak in half, and put it in front of me.

I felt even more guilty now that he had acted in such a gentlemanly manner. Thus, she nodded her head fiercely a few times and cooperated with him.

This time, he smiled. "Such an old life, you won't be interested even if I tell you. It's better to tell me about your drawing. I feel that you're very happy when you talk about painting."

It was then that I understood why he had just turned the conversation to painting. He had been indulging me.

If he wasn't a ghost, he was so considerate of gentlemen, he would be liked by many girls. I regretfully said, "It would be great if you weren't a ghost."

His hand stopped chopping the steak, and his face stiffened for a moment.

I hastily explained, "If you weren't a ghost, there would definitely be a lot of people chasing after you."

Gu Chengze continued to cut the steak, and his voice gradually became cold: "If I could have chosen, I would have also wanted to live like a normal person, live a life of sickness and death, and then live the next life. But I didn't have a choice at all."

"Who killed you?" I suddenly wanted to know about this. I've often heard the older generation say that only those who have died in injustice are unable to be reborn. Then, he must have been killed.

Gu Chengze passed the sliced steak to me: "Today is my first date with you, don't talk about such a heavy topic. You will find out sooner or later who killed me."

I bit down on the ninety-year-old steak and made an "oh" sound. I could hear the vicissitudes in his tone. He remembered that he had said that he had stayed in this world for several thousand years. Didn't that mean that he would have to endure this sort of vicissitudes of life from time to time?

"Gu Chengze, the thing you want me to help you find, can it help you find the person that killed you?" I asked, suddenly looking at him.

He nodded.

"If you find the person who killed you and take revenge, will you be able to go back to your reincarnation?" I asked again.

"You want me to be reborn and live the life you want?" Gu Chengze put down the steak that he was chopping, and asked indifferently.

If he can be reborn, it means I'm free. Wouldn't this make the two of them happy?

"Don't think about it, Xiaoxiao. The person who killed me buried me somewhere unknown to me. He has been living a peaceful life for more than two thousand years. I can't even find my own body, how can I fight against him? " He sighed softly and quickly regained his spirits. "But at least I can go out and exercise now. After I find my body, I'll have a better chance of winning …"

"Then when will you find your body?" I was anxious.

"I don't know either." He continued to cut his steak. "So, Xiaoxiao, you will be my wife until I am reborn. In other words, you will always be my wife. "

I let out an "oh" and bit down on my steak, unable to say what it felt like.

"You are my wife, so I will not treat you unfairly. Don't worry, I will let you live a good life." Perhaps he saw that I was unhappy and tried to comfort me with his words.

I didn't dare to think too much about it. After all, he had the same thoughts as me, so he knew what I was thinking.

I don't know how I finished his meal, but after the dishes came out, Gu Chengze drove me home. Originally, I wanted to let me down at the intersection, but Gu Chengze said that I was his wife, so how could he leave his wife at the intersection? This didn't conform with the customs of their place.

I don't know why, but as I sat in the car, I carefully recalled the things that happened during the past few days when I got to know Gu Chengze. After that, I actually felt a deep sense of guilt towards Gu Chengze.

Although it was his fault that Gu Chengze had taken over my body, I should have hated him. However, after scaring me several times, logically speaking, I should have hated him even more. But today, at school, he helped me get rid of the dirt on the red flower, told me that he had waited ten years for me, that ten years had passed before he took over my body, that he had asked Principal Zhang to give me a house, and that the restaurant was filled with the vicissitudes and loneliness that I felt for him.

If he had taken over my body years ago, he might have been able to move around in the mortal world.

I tilted my head and looked at Gu Chengze, who was fully focused on driving the car. I had an indescribable feeling in my heart. While blaming him for implicating me, he was also moved by what he had done to me.

I don't know what he was thinking.

After he drove the car to the entrance of my neighborhood, he said to me, "You don't have to think about anything right now. You should get a good night's sleep first. "Don't go back to the dorm for the next few days to gather information. You can go back when I tell you to."

As he reminded me, I remembered why I was going to school today. After going around in such a large circle, I actually forgot the information I want the most.

Those materials are for studying. I originally wanted to see how the exam would be in the future, but now Principal Zhang is even willing to give me a house. How can I not pass the exam? Thus, I waved my hand and looked at him. "If the school isn't safe, then I won't go."

"Have a good rest at home for the next few days. If you need anything, just give me a call." Gu Chengze warned me again.

He always felt something was wrong with him repeatedly emphasizing that I should stay at home, so he drove away before I could ask.

When I returned home, the first thing I did was to put on the jade Gu Chengze had given me. However, after putting it on, he felt that the jade pendant was suddenly very hot. It looked like it was on the verge of burning.

I quickly took off the jade pendant and held it in my hand, not daring to loosen my grip. He took out his phone from his bag and called Gu Chengze, telling him that the jade pendant was frighteningly hot. He didn't know what was going on.

Just as he finished speaking, the sound of an emergency parking brake came from the phone.

"Hold the jade pendant and don't give it away. If it's too hot, go to the kitchen and turn on the tap. Hold the jade and place it in the basin. I'll be right over. " Then I heard the noise outside, and the sound of a horn honking. It was probably Gu Chengze who had turned the phone into a hands-free mode.

"Gu Chengze, drive slowly. I just feel that the jade pendant is hot and I don't see anything that's scary. " I heard the wind whizzing past my phone and guessed that Gu Chengze should be driving very fast.

"Don't be afraid, I've looked at your house before and there's nothing more evil than my jade pendant. My jade pendant is abnormal hot, I'm just going to see why it's hot." His voice was soft, but strange. It gave me a sense of security.

But at this time, I no longer had the time to think about why Gu Chengze gave me a sense of security. From the kitchen window I could see a man in a Chinese tunic looking in my direction.

In this era, how could there be a person wearing a Chinese tunic? I told Gu Chengze, "A person wearing a Chinese tunic is looking at my home."

"Can you see his face?" he asked.

"I can't see clearly." My house is on the fifth floor, so I can only see the outline.

Gu Chengze continued, "That's fine, Xiao Xiao, I'm almost there."

Two minutes after he said that, I saw him walk down the stairs to my house. He was not in a hurry to get up. Instead, he walked up to the man in the middle mountain suit and said something. Then, that man in the suit suddenly ran out of the district.

When Gu Chengze entered my house, I still had my hand in the washbasin and didn't take it out.

The jade pendant had already turned the cold water in the basin into warm water. He walked in front of me and told me to take out the jade pendant. As soon as she took the jade pendant, a mark immediately appeared on her palm. It was as if he did not expect the jade to be so hot. He almost threw it to the ground.

Fortunately, I was right in front of him. When I saw that he was about to throw away the jade pendant, I hurriedly took it over. "What happened? Isn't this jade pendant yours?"
