Only after her death did I realize that she was the white moonlight of a billionaire CEO.

Chapter 49 Sister Xi teaches you to shut up

Gu Zhen said he was going to accompany Li Xi to practice driving and take her driving test, and he really just focused on teaching her to drive, without saying anything suggestive in the car.

This relieved Li Xi and gave Xie Jian some peace and quiet.

She was afraid that the two of them would flirt and talk about love in the car, so she would ask the driving school to change her instructor.

Single people hate it when someone shows off their relationship in front of them.

After a day of driving practice, Li Xi didn't feel anything else, except that her buttocks hurt. She and Xie Jian got together to discuss what kind of lumbar support pillow to buy, and decided to order one locally and have it delivered to their home.

Gu Zhen drove the car back, walked over, and asked Li Xi, "Want to have dinner together tonight?"

After a pause, Gu Zhen asked Xie Jian, "Miss Xie, would you like to come along?"

Xie Jian waved her hand in refusal, "You guys go ahead, I have other things to do. Goodbye, Li Xi."

Xie Jian picked up her things and left.

Li Xi followed Gu Zhen into his electric car. This was the second time Li Xi had ridden in his car, and she was still in the passenger seat.

Li Xi noticed a bottle of aromatherapy pendant hanging in Gu Zhen's car. The scent was somewhat like cedarwood and smelled very pleasant.

After buckling his seatbelt, Gu Zhen asked Li Xi, "What do you want to eat?"

Li Xi immediately replied, "Whatever."

If a girl says "whatever," then it's hard to respond.

But Gu Zhen was a very efficient person. He immediately named several restaurants and accurately described the signature dishes of each restaurant for Li Xi to choose from.

With all the options in front of her, Li Xi quickly made up her mind: "Let's eat barbecue."

It's getting cold, so eating barbecue around the table is quite warming, and besides, Li Xi likes it too.

Moreover, Li Xi heard that when going on a blind date, you can tell some of the other person's habits by eating barbecue and hot pot together.

"Row."

The barbecue restaurant is a distance from Lanting Apartment, located in Wanji Shopping Mall near Zhaixing Entertainment.

There was some traffic on the road, and it was already dark when they arrived at the mall.

Gu Zhen parked the car on the second floor of the underground parking garage. When they went upstairs, even though elevators number 2 and 3 were both on the second basement level, he took Li Xi to elevator number 5, which was further away.

This is a sightseeing elevator.

There was no one on the basement floor yet, and only the two of them were in the elevator. Li Xi suddenly said, "Do you have claustrophobia?"

Gu Zhen looked at her in surprise, then answered irrelevantly, "Why do you ask that?"

Li Xi said, "I saw you several times when we were in the apartment, and you were always taking the sightseeing elevator."

One or two times could be considered a coincidence, but if it's always the same sightseeing elevator, then it's worth noting.

Gu Zhen was surprised by Li Xi's keen observation skills. "You have a very strong ability to observe."

He didn't deny it, telling Li Xi, "I do have a bit of a resistance to staying in confined places, but I can ride in a sealed elevator, though I get uncomfortable if I stay there for too long."

Gu Zhen asked Li Xi hesitantly, "Would you mind this little quirk of mine?"

Li Xi shook her head and said understandingly, "It's not a problem. Besides, everyone has things they dislike. I also hate whistling."

"Whistling?" Gu Zhen had rarely heard of this. "What kind?"

Li Xi frowned and said, "It's just the sound of a regular whistle. When I was in school and running, the PE teacher always whistled."

"I get a headache whenever I hear a whistle." Just thinking about the feeling of a whistle in my ear gives Li Xi a chill down her spine.

Upon hearing this, an unreadable emotion flashed in Gu Zhen's eyes.

He suddenly asked Li Xi, "How old were you when you were adopted by the Xie family?"

"10 is old."

Nodding, Gu Zhen put one hand in his pocket, looking thoughtful.

The sightseeing elevator slowly ascended, stopping at each floor, and a large number of tourists poured into the first and second floors.

Gu Zhen instinctively stood in front of Li Xi, using his tall and straight body to protect Li Xi in a safe little corner behind him.

Li Xi looked up at the back of the man's head, a slight smile playing on her lips.

Once they reached the sixth floor, they waited until everyone else had left before following closely behind.

Stepping out of the elevator lobby and standing in the corridor, Gu Zhen pointed to the restroom sign and said, "Do you need to use the restroom first? I'll go get a number and wait in line."

To be honest, the toilets at the driving school weren't very clean, so Li Xi didn't go to the toilet after her driving practice.

She was stuck in traffic for over an hour, and then her period started, so she wasn't feeling well.

Li Xi guessed that Gu Zhen had discovered she was on her period, but there was nothing awkward about it between adult men and women. She didn't stand on ceremony with Gu Zhen and went to the restroom with her bag.

Gu Zhen took a number, sat on a high stool to wait in line, and notified Li Xi on WeChat: "There are still five tables ahead of us, no rush."

When Li Xi received the message, she had just opened the toilet stall door.

She walked towards the sink while replying to the message: 【Okay, I'm coming.】

As Li Xi shoved her phone back into her bag and bent down to wash her hands, a mocking voice suddenly came from behind her: "It really is you, Li Xi."

"When I saw you in the underground parking garage earlier, I thought I was seeing things. I never imagined that after you were kicked out of the Xie family, you would end up hanging out with a man who drives an electric scooter."

Jiang Qingkong suddenly leaned close to Li Xi's ear and deliberately disgusted her: "Even if you can't be with Xingyun, there's no need to stoop to the point of dating just any man."

"Have you said enough? If not, I'll shut you up." Li Xi scooped up a handful of water, stood up, and splashed it on Jiang Qingkong's face.

Jiang Qingkong was splashed with water and was stunned for a moment.

Li Xi pulled out a tissue to wipe her hands and said, "Doesn't that shut you up?"

After wiping her hands, Li Xi gently wiped Jiang Qingkong's face with the paper.

While wiping, he said, "I forgot to comfort you. I heard that the Jiang family villa was burned to the ground, and even your collection room was not spared."

"You must be very upset that your family suddenly lost a large sum of money."

Jiang Qingkong finally came to her senses, suddenly flung Li Xi's arm away, and raised her arm to slap Li Xi's face.

However, Li Xi locked her wrist and used a backhand grappling move to push Jiang Qingkong's body against the toilet wall.

Li Xi pressed down on Jiang Qingkong's upper body, making her face pressed tightly against the wall.

Just as Jiang Qingkong was about to struggle, Li Xi's voice came through her ear: "I've been meaning to ask you, how did you find out about me and Xie Xingyun?"

Xie Xingyun would never take the initiative against Jiang Qingkong.

Jiang Qingkong is deeply in love with Xie Xingyun, but she only has so many brain cells that it's hard for her to discover their secret affair.

Someone must have told her that.

Without a second thought, Jiang Qingkong said, "It doesn't matter who said it, but the two of you talked about it, so it's true. I didn't wrong you!"

"It's Xie Jiaoyue, isn't it?" Li Xi said with certainty.

Jiang Qingkong was taken aback and subconsciously asked, "How did you know?"

Li Xi did not explain the reason.

She patted Jiang Qingkong's cheek lightly and said with a look of disdain, "You idiot! You didn't even realize you were doing someone else's favor."

A look of astonishment flashed in Jiang Qingkong's eyes. "You mean Xie Jiaoyue plotted against me?"
