Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

Chapter 209 I Just Want You to Be Well

Gu Qingshi did not reach out to take the money. He just shook his head gently, staring at Gu Qingqing with firm and gentle eyes.

After a long while, he slowly said, "Qingqing, you should know my character. I don't value money or anything like that that much. I just hope you can be safe and healthy. That will satisfy me."

Hearing this, Gu Qingqing couldn't help but sigh, with a hint of helplessness and bitterness on her face.

She lowered her eyes and murmured to herself in a low voice: "But, someone like me... you can see that the me I am today is the real me. I'm not as good as you think, and I'm not worth it for you to do this."

Gu Qingshi smiled slightly, and that smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, warm and comforting.

He patted Gu Qingqing's shoulder like he was coaxing a child, and said gently, "Of course I know what kind of person you are. It's better to take revenge when there's a grudge, and to repay a grievance when there's a grudge. It's better than being wronged yourself. What happened today was because Master Qi pushed you into a desperate situation, and you had no choice but to do this. I completely understand your difficulties. I'm going with you, not because I want to gain anything, but because I really don't want to see you get hurt."

After hearing this, Gu Qingqing fell into a long silence.

Time passed minute by minute, and the whole room was so quiet that only the two people's light breathing could be heard.

After a long time, Gu Qingqing raised her head, tears in her eyes.

With a trembling voice, she said to Gu Qingshi, "Gu Qingshi, please stop being so nice to me. Otherwise, I will feel guilty and uneasy."

Gu Qingshi's eyes were gentle yet firm. He spoke slowly, his tone particularly sincere: "Qingqing, don't put so much pressure on yourself! I know that those things in the past are in the past. They are like a chasm between us, making it difficult for you to cross it. It's the same for me!

My love for you remains the same as before, without any loss. This love is not motivated by the desire to possess you or gain something in return.

I simply hope to be by your side, even if I can't walk side by side with you and face the ups and downs of life together.

To be able to stand behind you silently, to be your most solid and reliable support, to protect you and to ensure that you are safe and happy, is enough for me, and I will have no regrets in this life."

Hearing such affectionate words, Gu Qingqing could no longer control her inner excitement, and tears flowed down like a burst dam.

At this moment, she really hated the bad guy who drugged Gu Qingshi. If it weren't for this despicable method, perhaps the relationship between them would not be so complicated.

At the same time, she also regretted why she brought a group of people to her place that night to make a fuss.

So much so that when Gu Qingshi encountered such a thing right at her door, she was completely unaware.

Seeing Gu Qingqing crying so hard, Gu Qingshi felt so distressed that he quickly took out his handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

He comforted her softly, "Okay, stop crying. If you keep crying, your eyes will turn into walnuts. If you really feel bad, I'll just keep the money."

However, it's more appropriate to keep this money with you for now. It's not safe to deposit the money now. What if Mr. Qi arranges someone to watch over it at the savings bank? That would be a big trouble.

Zhou Qianru is at my place. If I leave the money with her, she might find it one day, and it would be hard to explain. So I'd better take the trouble to keep it for me."

The latter sentence is indeed true. Zhou Qianru went to the countryside under the banner of taking care of him, but in fact she did nothing and it was he who took care of her.

Not only that, she also looked down on other female educated youth, thinking that they had no ideals and just spent all day hanging around the stove.

This offended all the female educated youth. She was too disdainful to play with them, and they didn't want to pay attention to her.

It's okay during the busy farming season, after all, she can drive a tractor to help.

But once she didn't have a tractor to drive, she would take the whole day off from work and just read a novel. I don't know if this was her ideal.

Gu Qingshi didn't know whether her family sent her money.

But every time she needed money, she was not polite at all and went directly to Gu Qingshi's room to look for money.

If she knew that Gu Qingshi had hidden so much money, it wouldn't take long for her family to hear about it.

With Zhou Xiujuan's personality, she would definitely come in person and torture Gu Qingshi to extract a confession.

Zhou Xiujuan repeatedly warned Gu Qingshi not to do anything illegal or disorderly.

Even Gu Qingqing disliked Zhou Qianru a little, so when she heard Gu Qingshi ask her to help keep the money, she didn't want Zhou Qianru to get it for free.

Without thinking, I agreed: "Okay, no problem, I'll keep it for you, and you can come to me anytime you need it."

After Gu Qingqing put the money away, Gu Qingshi said again with a serious face: "As for Master Qi, I have spent a lot of effort but still can't find out his background, so you'd better not go to the black market to trade recently.

However, it had only been a short time since the Seventh Master arrived, and all the black market bosses in the commune were completely obedient to him! Even those black market bosses who had not been arrested before now obeyed his orders.

Based on my experience, this person is no ordinary person. He might be after the goods you have. Don't worry about not being able to sell them. I will find you a more reliable buyer later."

Gu Qingqing shook her head slightly and replied firmly, "I did this today. If I don't contact them, it will arouse his suspicion even more.

But don't worry, I have bought some farms from the brigade during this period of time and then sold them to them.

We have only traded agricultural products before, so nothing will happen."

After a brief thought, Gu Qingshi felt that what Gu Qingqing said made sense, so he nodded and said, "That's fine, but let Qiao Lei go with you. You two can do this business together. You can't bear all the risks alone, so she can be the middleman. When you go to the commune to trade, I'll find a way to deliver the supplies to the commune for you."

"it is good!"

After the two of them discussed all the details of the process, Gu Qingshi left Gu Qingqing's house and went back.

When he passed by Qiao Lei's room, he couldn't help but look at her a few more times, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile.

I thought to myself: You know what, Qiao Lei is quite capable. She can actually guess Gu Qingqing's thoughts so accurately. It seems I have to pay more attention to her in the future.
