Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 389 "She's a liar!"

Wen Zhuqing thought that since he had said that, Gu Jianing would definitely compromise.

But he guessed wrong.

Gu Jianing remained cold, "What you're saying seems utterly absurd to me, Comrade Wen. Are you perhaps experiencing some kind of mental problem?"

"Please leave now."

As Gu Jianing said this, she was looking for items in the system store.

Although she didn't know why Wen Zhuqing had regained his memories of his past life and even came to her door, she was still indignant since he dared to come.

If he still dares to threaten her like that, then she won't let him leave so easily.

Moreover, Wen Zhuqing is a stubborn person.

If she couldn't completely crush him this time, she feared he would seek even deeper revenge.

Her children, her family, and her husband are all her weaknesses, so she cannot be soft-hearted.

Soon, Gu Jianing found the "one month of bad luck" skill and used it on Wen Zhuqing.

That is to say, it didn't last longer, otherwise she could have blamed it on Wen Zhuqing.

Then, Gu Jianing spotted something nice.

"You're mentally ill" skill?
["You're Mentally Ill" skill: When used on someone, that person will gradually develop a substantial mental illness within a week, eventually going completely insane. Note: This skill is harmful and requires merit points to purchase.]

Gu Jianing looked at the note and asked the system.

"System, how much merit do I have now?"

[Host, you have accumulated a great deal of merit.]

Gu Jianing: That's true. Over the years, she has been a doctor and saved so many people. It would be strange if she didn't accumulate a lot of merit.

"Can I purchase this skill?"

Yes, you can buy 100 of them.

Gu Jianing: We don't need a hundred, one is enough.

Now, Wen Zhuqing has a dream about her past life and is convinced that she was dreaming too.

Now that she is no longer threatened by Wen Zhuqing, she fears he might try to drag her down with him.

She'll go around telling everyone that she also had a dream from her past life.

She didn't want to be arrested and used as a guinea pig for research.

and so……

Making Wen Zhuqing a madwoman, a mentally ill person, is the best choice.

Even if she doesn't meet Wen Zhuqing's expectations, and Wen Zhuqing makes a scene everywhere, and in the end they take Wen Zhuqing for testing, the only result will be that Wen Zhuqing has gone mad.

What can be believed about the words of a madman?
So, after making up her mind, Gu Jianing did not hesitate and directly purchased the skill and gave it to Wen Zhuqing.

At that moment, Gu Jianing's heart was completely at ease.

Wen Zhuqing hadn't expected that she would say something like this.

Gu Jianing was still unwilling to admit it or help him.

"Fine, fine, Gu Jianing, since you're so heartless, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Why do you want my wife to be so ruthless? Do you think I'm dead?"

No sooner had Wen Zhuqing finished speaking than a cold, icy voice rang out from behind her.

Gu Jianing looked up when she heard the familiar voice.

Then I saw Sheng Zexi walking in.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Brother Xi, you're back?

When did he come back?

How much of his conversation with Wen Zhuqing did he overhear?

Gu Jianing's hands trembled slightly.

To be honest, she was a little scared.

Even knowing that in her past life Sheng Zexi remained unmarried because of her, and knowing that even after what she went through, Sheng Zexi was still willing to rush into a sea of ​​fire to save her, but…

At this moment, Gu Jianing was still timid when facing Sheng Zexi.

She couldn't help but wonder, if Sheng Zexi also had memories of his past life, would his feelings for her still be as unchanging as they are now?
Does he feel that she has been the one scheming against him all his life?
Will he... dislike her?
It must be said that love can indeed make people feel incredibly humble.

Gu Jianing had to admit that she had long since fallen in love with Sheng Zexi, and was now hopelessly in love with him.

Therefore, she was afraid that Sheng Zexi would look at her with disgust, or even indifference.

So, when Sheng Zexi walked towards her and reached out his hand to her...

Gu Jianing subconsciously took a step back.

She is afraid.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Zexi was stunned when he saw her action.

He then stepped forward resolutely, grabbed Gu Jianing's hand tightly, as if to say, "No matter what, I will not let you escape."

Gu Jianing looked at her hand being gripped tightly, feeling the warmth emanating from the man's broad palm. Her hand, which had been somewhat cold, gradually warmed up.

"Don't overthink it!" Sheng Zexi patted Gu Jianing's head and said gently.

He then shielded Gu Jianing behind him, facing Wen Zhuqing.

"Wen Zhuqing, do you want to repeat what you just said?"

What are you going to do to my wife?

Wen Zhuqing did not expect Sheng Zexi to suddenly return.

Faced with the arrogant Sheng Zexi, Wen Zhuqing unconsciously felt inferior.

However, Wen Zhuqing, who believed she had dreamt of a past life, was unwilling to admit defeat.

So he looked directly at Sheng Zexi, his tone laced with sarcasm, "Officer Sheng, you probably have no idea how much your beloved wife has been hiding from you."

"Do you trust her that much?"

"She's a liar!"

Sheng Zexi's expression remained completely unchanged.

He walked straight up to Wen Ruqing, looking down at her with certainty, and said, "I know what kind of person my wife is, and I don't need an outsider to comment."

"Aunt Chen, please ask this Comrade Wen to leave!" Sheng Zexi said loudly.

Chen Ma immediately came in and was about to ask Wen Zhuqing to leave.

Wen Zhuqing glanced at Sheng Zexi, then at Gu Jianing, and said, "Okay, I'm leaving."

"I hope you won't regret it later."

"But if you want to know anything, you can come find me!"

Wen Zhuqing didn't mind changing her partner to Sheng Zexi.

After all, Sheng Zexi is currently in a high position.

If I were willing, the help I would give him would definitely be greater than that given to Gu Jianing.

Soon, Wen Zhuqing left.

In the living room, only Sheng Zexi and Gu Jianing remained.

Sheng Zexi looked at Gu Jianing, about to say something.

Gu Jianing turned and went back to her room as if she were fleeing.

Sheng Zexi hurriedly followed.

Once inside the room, they saw Gu Jianing sitting by the window, gazing outside, seemingly lost in thought.

Sheng Zexi placed his hands on her shoulders.

“Ningning, we are husband and wife. If there’s anything you want to say, don’t keep it to yourself. If you talk it out, everything will be a small matter.”

Gu Jianing's fingertips trembled. Were these all trivial matters?
There was a hint of confusion in her eyes.

The room seemed to fall silent.

After a long while, Gu Jianing finally asked, "How much of my conversation with Wen Zhuqing did you hear just now?"
