The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 359: Jian Xi denounces the trick, Gu Li tells the truth
The temperature on spring nights is just right. Even if you are wearing thin clothes, you won't shiver unless you are afraid of cold. But at this moment, the girlfriend of Jian Xi's good brother... his ex-girlfriend, his girlfriend's best friend, couldn't help shivering.

Maybe it was because the black dress had just fallen off, leaving only her bra and panties on, or maybe it was because she was weak and sick that she was shaking, or maybe it was because of some other psychological reasons...

Except for being a little surprised at the beginning, Jian Xi quickly returned to normal. After all, many things had been foreshadowed before.

As soon as he entered the room from the first floor, he noticed something was wrong. Not only was there no smell of alcohol in the air, but after careful observation, he also discovered that Lin Xiao was sleeping soundly in her own room.

Lin Xiao's breathing was already very familiar to him. He had never drunk alcohol nor cried or made a fuss.

It was then that he realized that Gu Li had deliberately tricked him into coming here, but he just didn't understand why.

Just as they were about to enter the room, he had a vague guess: what would happen if a single man and a single woman entered a room together in the middle of the night?
So hard to guess!

After Gu Li took off his clothes without saying a word, he finally understood. Damn, he thought he was Xi Cheng!
It's not like he hadn't guessed that Gu Li might do this, but he felt that the possibility was not high. After all, in the original drama, Gu Li went to find Xi Cheng, and not long ago, hadn't Gu Li used Xi Cheng to completely drive away Gu Yuan, Tang Wanru and Nan Xiang?
He thought Gu Li would not do this. After all, according to the information he received, Xi Cheng is now...

In short, he thought about what happened in the original drama before entering the door, but he never thought it would happen to him.

After all, he is a bit of a scumbag, but he is a scumbag of a man, not a scumbag of a person.

Gu Li's behavior of switching his and Xi Cheng's positions was simply an insult to him!
What's more, what the other party said made him unable to hold back.

The bastard never expected that after Nan Xiang said to him the words "Can you have sex with me?" that shocked him, Gu Li could actually come up with such a "Can you go to bed with me?"

It is indeed a little implicit, but not much.

Is this the tacit understanding between best friends?

Looking at Gu Li who was looking at him pitifully, Jian Xi calmed himself down, quickly closed his eyes, turned around and scolded:

"Sister-in-law, please don't be so rude! Jian Xi is a man of integrity, how could he do such a beastly thing!"

"..."

Although Gu Li was stripping off her clothes, she was still shy because of their identities, covering her chest with her hands while waiting for Jian Xi's response. When she heard what the other party said, she couldn't help but look up and whispered, "Just this once, I hope you can do it."

Xi was furious and waved his hand again, "Nonsense, how can you be worthy of your brother by acting like this?"

Hearing this, Gu Li was shocked. He closed his eyes, took a few breaths, and then opened them again. He looked at Jian Xi's back and took a step forward. His eyes moved as he said:
"I broke up with him a long time ago, and you and he are not brothers. Now that you are unmarried and I am unmarried, why not have a happy night?"

"Sister-in-law, please respect yourself! Don't mention this again!" Jian Xi had his back turned so that he couldn't see her expression, but his tone became colder and colder, "Although my brother and I are brothers with different surnames, we have a deep friendship. How can I allow you to stir up trouble?!"

After a pause, Jian Xi continued, "Although I may be crude, I know the principles of human relations! If you take another step forward, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

After being rejected twice and being scolded so harshly by the other party, Gu Li was speechless for a moment.

Thinking about all the plans, now it was going to fail. Even though she had taken off her clothes, she didn't expect that Jian Xi, such a pervert, would refuse. Gu Li was in a dilemma and couldn't help crying:
"Jian Xi, why are you so hard-hearted? You and I are not uncle and sister-in-law. I have already taken off all my clothes and treated you honestly. Do you really want to humiliate me?"

"The one who humiliated my sister-in-law was not Xi, but my sister-in-law herself!" Jian Xi stood with his back to hers. He couldn't help but sigh when he heard the crying behind him, "My sister-in-law doesn't recognize me as her uncle, but I can't help but treat you as my sister-in-law. The relationship between my brother and sister-in-law was once enviable. Although I don't know why my sister-in-law was so cruel to say goodbye to my brother, I know that my brother still loves my sister-in-law. Xi is not a beast, and I should treat you as a sister-in-law. Besides..."

Xi sighed again: "The person Xi loves is sleeping soundly in the next room right now. She and my sister-in-law are like sisters. I can't betray her and do something inappropriate to my sister-in-law!"

Jian Xi's figure is as tall and straight as a pine tree, and his words are sincere. If anyone hears them, they will all feel his great righteousness and give him a thumbs up in respect.

What a man named Jian who is virtuous, polite, loyal and righteous!

However, Gu Jinlian was ashamed and angry after hearing this. She stopped crying and sneered, "You should not let her down! Let me ask you, how do you explain Nanxiang's matter? Xiang and Xiao are sisters, and they have always had a good relationship with each other. Since they have done the same thing with you, why do you have to pretend to be so nice? Not to mention the matter of Linquan!"

After seizing the loophole in the man's words, Gu Li became more aggressive. Seeing that the other party did not respond, she sneered again: "You have already won the two Lins' return, and you have also won Xiaoxiang's sympathy. What you just said is no different from that of a hypocrite. Now you dare not look me in the face. It is obvious that you are moved and lack courage!"

The atmosphere in the bedroom became increasingly tense. Jian Xi turned his back and said nothing. Gu Li mistakenly thought that he was still struggling, so she couldn't help but slowly approach him and said,
"What happened tonight is known to heaven, earth, you and me. Look back, Xi, who is prettier, me or the other sister?"

"No need, they must be more beautiful!"

"..."

Jian Xi spoke suddenly, and Gu Li's face froze. Just as the feeling of shame and anger for self-humiliation was about to emerge, he saw Jian Xi take action.

Jian Xi took two steps at a time and came to the bedside, picked up the quilt and threw it back, just covering Gu Li who was trying to get closer.

Although he tried to reduce his strength, the weight of the bed still forced Gu Li to sit on the ground.

Only then did Jian Xi turn around and look at Gu Li, whose breasts were already covered, and said with anger in his eyes, "Sister-in-law is so shameless. First, she colluded with Xi Cheng to harm my brother, and now she is trying to seduce me to destroy the relationship between my brother and my partner. How is her behavior different from that Pan Jinlian? You are such a vicious woman. Jin Xi will break off all ties with you!"

Jian Xi's eyes were as bright as torches, and although he had lowered his voice, it still sounded like the collision of metal and stone. The sound was clear and awe-inspiring, and also like the evening drum and morning bell, awakening the deaf.

The house fell silent, and in the dead of night, only the faint chirping of insects outside the window could be heard.

"Woooooooo..."

In a moment, Gu Li's crying sound was heard from under the bed, which was even more sad than before. Even though Jian Xi was angry, he was moved.

"Ugh!"

Jian Xi sighed and said in a slow tone, "Why are you doing this?"

Seeing that the other party was crying non-stop, he continued, "Good sister-in-law... You know, I didn't refute what you just said about me and the three girls Quan, Xiao, and Xiang because I am indeed ashamed, but now is different from the past, and things can't be generalized. Xi has experienced a lot with them, and love comes from the heart. It is unbearable to abandon any of them. Whether you say I am unfaithful or Hua Fen Ke or Liu Sanbian, I am not afraid. Even so, the love between me and them has never been mixed with others. Since you know about the affairs of the Yinghuang, haven't you heard about the fight for the wind? The former is still embarrassing now, let alone the latter? It is really a shameful thing that has been despised since ancient times!"

"Although Xi is a romantic man, he still knows human relations. You are also loyal. Why did it come to this?" Jian Xi cried out, tears about to flow.

"Woooooooo..."

The bed quilt could not hide Gu Li's crying, which was sad and mournful. It was not known whether she was hurt by Jian Xi's words or she was just depressed, which made people shake their heads and sigh.

"I will just pretend that what happened tonight never happened. I will leave now. I hope you... take care of yourself!"

Seeing this, Jian Xi took a step forward and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Hearing that Jian Xi was leaving, Gu Li quickly lifted the quilt and called out. Seeing that Jian Xi had closed his eyes again, anger was evident between his brows. She then lifted the quilt to cover his body, leaving only his head exposed, and said:
"I've covered my body. Don't leave in a hurry. I...what I did today was really a last resort!"

Jian Xi raised his eyebrows and a smile almost appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Finally we’ve gotten to the point!

After straightening his expression, Jian Xi tentatively opened his eyes. Seeing that the scene before him was just as the other party had said, he frowned and said, "Why must I do this? If you say even a single word is false, I will leave immediately."

Gu Li lowered her head and wiped away her tears on the bed quilt. She looked up at Jian Xi and said hesitantly, "If I tell you the truth, can you... can you stay and help me?"

"You're still not giving up?!" Jian Xi was shocked and angry, and scolded, "How could the Gu Li of the past become the unfaithful woman of today?!"

Over and over again, three times, four times... In just a short moment, Gu Li had been scolded countless times with words worthy of being drowned in a pig cage. Even though Gu Li was always known for his sharp tongue, he could not stand such insults.

"Do you really want me to die with my eyes open?" Gu Li burst into tears.

As Gu Li said this, the room suddenly became quiet. Jian Xi said in a state of "doubt": "Why are you talking about life and death? I won't tell anyone about what happened just now, neither to my brother nor to Lin Xiao."

"No! You have to talk to Lin Xiao!"

"..."

Jian Xi almost lost control of his acting. Looking at the confused Gu Li, he frowned and said, "I won't tell anyone. You are still Gu Yuan's beloved and Lin Xiao's best sister. Isn't that good?"

Gu Li said nothing, lowered her head and wiped her tears, then said stubbornly: "You don't have to sleep with me, but you have to stay in my room tonight and go out with me tomorrow morning."

"..."

Tsk!
Jian Xi couldn't help but smack his lips. Although he knew what Gu Li was planning, he still felt speechless after hearing it.

Why did you drag him along if you wanted to do such a bloody thing?
If you die, everything will be over. Your reputation will be ruined anyway. Have you ever considered that your buddies are still alive?

Seeing Gu Li's expression, Jian Xi knew that she was going to use her tongue to persuade him. In the original drama, Xi Cheng could be successfully persuaded by tongue, but it didn't mean that he could be successfully persuaded by tongue!

But now the dog man still pretended not to understand and asked: "What exactly do you want to do? Do you really want everyone to leave you?"

Seeing that Gu Li didn't say anything, he continued, "You go ahead and talk first. If you convince me, I'll agree to you."

"Really?!" Gu Li said in surprise. After seeing him nod, she got up holding the quilt and walked to the head of the bed. She took out a few pieces of paper from underneath and said, "Take a look."

Jian Xi took the paper she handed over, and it was indeed a diagnosis.

"Uterine cancer?"

Hearing this name again, Gu Li felt like crying again.

She nodded and said, "Yes, I found out at the end of last year."

Then, without waiting for Jian Xi to speak again, she added: "It's past the early stage now."

Jian Xi had expected this, but still asked in a deep voice: "Why didn't you treat it earlier?"

In fact, according to the timeline of the original drama, Jian Xi had always thought that the other party would not be diagnosed with the disease until at least the end of this year. It was Gu Li's abnormal behavior before that made him realize that the time had been advanced.

Tsk, every time I return to a new world, I feel like something is against me. Gu Li looked up at him, shook her head and said in a low voice: "I don't have the time. The Gu family's affairs have not been resolved. As soon as I enter the hospital, I will be eaten up by others without leaving any residue."

"Oh, money is more important than life?"

“Money is important.”

"..."

Although the words are outrageous, they are very Gu Li.

"So what does this have to do with what you just did?" Jian Xi frowned and asked, "Want to indulge yourself before you die?"

"..."

Gu Li's eyes widened. Now that things had come to this, she could no longer endure it.

"What the hell?! I just... I just want to piss Lin Xiao off, and then... stop Gu Yuan from thinking about it."

"Then when you came to me, have you ever considered what I should do? Gu Yuan doesn't need to say more. Lin Xiao hasn't completely settled the matter with Nan Xiang yet. If you do this again, how can I live?"

To be honest, this was what made Jian Xi speechless. Even though Gu Li was indeed worthy of sympathy, it still made him feel a little disgusted.

The buddies have traveled through several worlds and have always been friendly, respectful, loving and harmonious. They are truly role models for time travelers.

Finally I met such a guy. You can just die, but you want to ruin my reputation. It's so annoying. It's not like I won't give you a gift.

You only lost a life, but I lost my reputation!

Gu Li also lowered her head with some guilt, and said uncomfortably: "But I can't find anyone else except you. Xi Cheng also disappeared after that day, and only you would let Lin Xiao leave."

"Do you really want Lin Xiao to leave? She is the only one by your side now."

"But if this continues, it won't be long before Lin Xiao knows about my illness."

Jian Xi was even more speechless, and said unhappily: "Why? Have you read too many novels or watched too much TV? Do you want to imitate the people in those novels and die alone, just to avoid making others sad? After you die, others will find out that they have misunderstood you all along, and then they will feel guilty and regretful in front of your grave?"

"..."

Gu Li was stunned for a moment. Although what the other party said was not entirely right, she had to admit that she really thought so.

But after hearing Jian Xi say that, she still angrily said, "What do you know? Do you really think I'm some idiot from some brain-dead novel?!"

"Isn't it?" Jian Xi shrugged and smiled casually, "It's obvious that you might as well have gotten me drunk before you did that."

"Nonsense, if I could get you drunk I would have done it long ago!" Gu Li said angrily, "I even wanted to drug you!"

"Why not?" Jian Xi said with a smile, "When a man is about to die, his conscience is still there, right?"

"you……"

"Gu Li, do you know why you failed?" Jian Xi smiled and said directly, "You failed because you chose the wrong time. If you had waited for eight or nine years, I would have been forced to surrender."

"?"

Gu Li showed doubt, and then said uncomfortably: "I won't live to see that time."

"It's okay. I'll take a picture of their regretful and guilty expressions and burn it for you later."

"..."

Gu Li felt like crying again when she heard that, but she held back this time and said, "I told you I'm not doing this for this! I don't want them to see me losing all my hair during chemotherapy, and I don't want to burden them and make them feel sorry for me!"

"Ah~" Jian Xi stretched out his voice and nodded, "So money is more important than face?"

“Face is important.”

"You want to be so shameless now?"

"I'd rather have them hate me than have them pity me!"

Gu Li's eyes were red and his tone was firm.

Jian Xi couldn't help but applaud her, and then said, "Okay, I understand."

"You agree?!" Gu Li's face changed and he was about to lift the quilt.

"I don't agree. I'm going to tell Gu Yuan to come and accompany you. Tell your best friends to feel sorry for you."

"You!" Gu Li froze, his mind went blank for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he said aggrievedly, "Didn't you say that if I told you about it, you would agree?"

Jian Xi spread out his hands and said, "Don't come here to tell me about the history of the years. I said that if you persuade me, I would agree. Sorry, you didn't persuade me. Besides, how could I hide such a thing from them now that I know it?"

After the words fell, Jian Xi took out his cell phone and said, "I'll call Gu Yuan first."

"No!" Gu Li screamed and pushed open the quilt, ready to rush over to grab the phone. Jian Xi glanced at her, picked up the pillow and threw it back at her.

"You can tell Gu Yuan that it will only hurt him!"

As soon as she was thrown back onto the bed, Jian Xi threw the quilt on the ground over to press down Gu Li. Seeing that forcing her didn't work, Gu Li started crying on the bed again.

"Not telling him would be harmful to him." Jian Xi said coldly, "What you did before was stupid. It only moved yourself."

At this point, Jian Xi continued in a controlled tone, "When you colluded with Xi Cheng to dump Gu Yuan, were you still thinking in your heart, 'I'm so great, I'm such a good girlfriend in Modu, I won't drag my boyfriend down if I get sick', and then you also thought, 'Gu Yuan, you must hate me, you deserve a better girlfriend'."

"..."

Even though she had just been scolded so many times and still told the story in despair, Gu Li should have been extremely sad and heartbroken at this moment, but when she heard Jian Xi say this, she felt even angrier and more upset.

"Cry! Cry! If you cry any louder, you'll wake Lin Xiao up. Your soundproofing is good, but it's not much better."

“Ooooo…” Gu Li immediately covered her mouth, but she quickly came to her senses, “If she wakes me up, then so be it. Now that I’m like this, she’ll think we’re already asleep.”

"Are you stupid? Are you sure the tumor is in your stomach and not in your brain? Did she misunderstand me and delay me from telling others about your situation?"

"..." Gu Li was stunned for a moment. Indeed, the most important thing was to hide the fact that he was sick, and the second was to make Lin Xiao angry and run away.

At this time, Jian Xi smiled and raised his phone: "Oh, I forgot to tell you, when I took out my phone at the door just now, I didn't want to make a call, but turned on the recording."

As I said, it is 2016 now, and the situation has not evolved to the point where one can frame someone with just one sentence. I have not had any physical contact with Gu Li since I entered the house, and my DNA cannot be tested. I can't be dreaming now...

Gu Li, whose brain had short-circuited due to emotional excitement, regained consciousness at this moment. She wiped her tears and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "I have already told you everything. We have known each other for so many years. Now I am almost dead, can't you help me?"

"I can't help you with this." Jian Xi still shook his head.

"I can give you a lot of money."

"I don't need you for that."

"You are not even as good as Xi Cheng." Gu Li's eyes turned red and she began to cry again. When Xi Cheng met her in the hospital, he agreed to help her after listening to her, although he also paid a hush money.

But at least compared to Jian Xi now, Xi Cheng is more pleasing to her eyes.

"He is a scumbag, so he naturally doesn't care. I am different. I am a human being with personality. I cannot let my good brother down, nor can I hide this from my brother."

"Are you really going to force me to death now?!" Gu Li cried, "What's the point of telling Gu Yuan? When the disease was diagnosed, it was impossible for him and I to be together. It would be useless if he was cured in the early stage because I would have to have my uterus removed!"

After saying this biggest reason why she broke up with Gu Yuan, Gu Li seemed to have lost all her energy. She looked at Jian Xi with empty eyes: "He is the only son of the Ye family, and he also likes children. Ye Chuanping didn't like me in the first place. Now even if I am cured, there is no possibility for me to be with him."

"Please Jian Xi, please don't tell Gu Yuan... don't tell Gu Yuan." Gu Li looked at Jian Xi pleadingly. If she still had the strength, she would have wanted to kneel down in front of Jian Xi.

Jian Xi quietly looked at Gu Li who was pressed down by the bed. After a long time, he sighed and put the phone down.

"Beep-beep-"

"Sorry, I accidentally pressed the dial button." Jian Xi apologized, "You know, touch-screen phones are different from keypad phones, and accidents like this often happen."

"You... hang up now!" Gu Li, who was almost out of strength from crying, saw this bastard talking non-stop after dialing the phone and didn't hang up. She immediately became emotional again as if she had a last burst of energy.

"Ah? Sorry, I'm going to hang up now—"

"Hello? Jian Xi, what's the matter so late?"

Gu Yuan's slightly tired voice came over the phone, causing the emotional Gu Li to instantly stop all movements and even subconsciously hold his breath.

Jian Xi smiled and said to the phone: "It's nothing serious, I just have a question to ask you."

"what is the problem?"

“Do you accept DINK?”
