Chapter 122 I Have Always Misunderstood You

This time, Jiang Yanbai took her directly back to the Jiang family.

He got out of the car and dragged Gu Miaomiao out with an expressionless face.

The hallway was brightly lit, and a slender figure stood there.

Gu Baozhu.

She was wearing an exquisite silk nightgown, her long hair draped softly over her shoulders, and she had a gentle smile on her face that was just the right amount.

That smile froze instantly when he saw Jiang Yanbai holding Gu Miaomiao's hand.

The scene was extremely dazzling.

The disguise of gentleness was torn to pieces.

Her cheeks twisted slightly in jealousy.

She rushed up quickly, her voice aggrieved.

"Yanbai, why did you bring her back?"

Jiang Yanbai seemed not to hear.

He didn't even look at her, but just pulled Gu Miaomiao past her without stopping.

This disregard made Gu Baozhu more embarrassed than any humiliation.

She turned around, her eyes burning with rage, and all her resentment was directed at Gu Miaomiao.

"Didn't you say you'd never come back?"

Her voice rose, full of righteous questioning.

"Why are you coming back after just one day away?"

Gu Miaomiao finally raised her eyes.

There was a slight ripple in those dead eyes.

He was not looking at the domineering Gu Baozhu, but at the man beside him who looked like a walking corpse.

She curled the corners of her mouth in a sarcastic arc.

"Perhaps, asking your fiancé would be more clear."

In one sentence, all the problems were thrown back lightly.

Gu Baozhu's anger instantly found a new outlet. She was about to turn to Jiang Yanbai, but the man's cold voice sounded first.

"You go."

Three words, no warmth, no ups and downs.

Gu Baozhu's expression was stunned for a moment, then replaced by ecstasy.

She thought that Jiang Yanbai would still stand on her side after all.

She immediately straightened her back, raised her chin, and looked at Gu Miaomiao with the attitude of a winner.

"Did you hear that? Gu Miaomiao."

"Are you still dreaming that it was Yanbai who brought you back?"

"Now that he's personally told you to leave, why don't you just get out of here!"

roll.

Gu Miaomiao has heard this word too many times.

In the past, she said this to Jiang Yanbai.

Now, it was someone else's turn to speak to her.

It's really a changing world.

Joy actually rose in her heart. She could leave this man and go anywhere.

Without the slightest hesitation, she turned around and was about to take a step forward.

But his wrist was grabbed by a force.

That hand was still Jiang Yanbai's hand.

Gu Miaomiao paused.

Gu Baozhu's smile froze on her face.

Jiang Yanbai turned his head, and his empty eyes fell on Gu Baozhu for the first time.

"I'm letting you go."

boom!

It was as if something exploded in Gu Baozhu's brain.

The color drained from her face, and even her delicate makeup couldn't hide her shock.

"Why?"

She couldn't accept it, and her voice became uncontrollably shrill.

"Why let me go? Isn't she the one who should leave?"

She stretched out her finger and pointed at Gu Miaomiao tremblingly.

"I am your fiancée!"

Jiang Yanbai looked at her, his eyes frighteningly calm.

"Not anymore."

She stumbled back a step, her face full of disbelief.

"What on earth...what on earth is going on?"

Jiang Yanbai didn't answer her.

He walked straight towards Gu Baozhu.

He stopped just one step away from her.

Then he extended his hand.

The hand had distinct joints and accurately grasped the silver crescent necklace around Gu Baozhu's neck.

“Sizzle!”

A crisp sound.

The delicate chain broke with a sound.

The small crescent pendant was tightly grasped in his palm.

"Where did you get this necklace?"

His voice was as cold as the ice of hell.

Gu Baozhu was so frightened by the murderous intent in his eyes that her whole body trembled and her lips turned pale in an instant.

"This...this necklace I've been wearing since I was a child."

Jiang Yanbai snorted coldly and spread out his palm, with the crescent pendant in his palm.

"I'll give you another chance."

"You'd better answer properly."

There was no way he could know the truth, absolutely no way.

It must be that bitch Gu Miaomiao who said something that made him suspicious of him.

Yes, that must be it.

Gu Baozhu forced herself to suppress the panic in her heart, tears welled up in her eyes, and she put on a pitiful look.

"Yanbai, have you forgotten?"

"You were wearing this necklace when I rescued you from the orphanage as a child."

She tried to hold onto his last bit of affection, her voice mournful.

"Is the friendship between us for so many years all fake?"

"You said yourself that you would marry me, why did you change your mind?"

Her spearhead finally pointed again at the woman who had been silent since a while ago.

"Is it all because of her? Because of Gu Miaomiao?"

Gu Miaomiao watched the farce quietly.

Looking at the necklace in Jiang Yanbai's hand and watching Gu Baozhu's clumsy performance.

It turned out that he already knew.

He knew that the necklace was hers and that she was the one who saved him.

Ridiculous, so ridiculous.

The truth was revealed at the wrong time and in the most embarrassing way.

Gu Miaomiao slowly raised the corners of her lips, but the smile did not reach her eyes. She spoke, her voice was not loud, but it clearly struck everyone's heart.

"This necklace is mine."

"I was the one who saved Jiang Yanbai from a few thugs in the back hills of the orphanage when he was a child."

Her gaze was fixed directly on Gu Baozhu.

"For so many years, you have treated other people's things and other people's pasts as your own."

"Gu Baozhu, don't you feel guilty when you wake up in your dreams at midnight?"

Jiang Yanbai didn't look at Miaomiao.

His eyes were fixed on Gu Baozhu's pale face.

He spoke slowly.

"While I am still willing to let you go out safely."

"You'd better disappear immediately, otherwise..."

Those two unfinished words were a threat more terrifying than any torture.

Gu Baozhu's psychological defenses collapsed at this moment.

She looked at Jiang Yanbai's face, which no longer had any warmth, and then looked at Gu Miaomiao who was standing beside her with an indifferent expression.

Fear instantly overwhelmed her.

She didn't even have time to go upstairs to get her luggage.

He rushed out of the villa gate in such a miserable state, crawling and rolling.

With Gu Baozhu's departure, the living room instantly became quiet.

Jiang Yanbai turned around slowly.

The eyes that were filled with cold murderous intent just now were now looking straight at Gu Miaomiao, with a complex emotion that she had never seen before.

He walked towards her, his steps no longer steady and fierce as before, but hesitant instead.

He stopped in front of her.

"Miaomiao."

His voice was very hoarse.

"Before...it was my fault."

"I have always misunderstood you."

He took a deep breath, the scarlet in his eyes becoming more and more obvious, as if he had used up all his strength before he said the next sentence.

"I want to believe that everything you did to me in the Gu family had a reason."

Gu Miaomiao listened quietly.

There was no expression on his face, not even his eyelashes trembled.

believe?

You say you believe it now?

After he had tortured her in every possible way and trampled on her dignity?

After he pieced together the so-called truth from other people's clumsy lies?

What is this belated and cheap belief?

She raised her eyes and looked at the man she had loved and hated.

Then, she coldly pulled her hand away from the range where he was about to hold it.

A subtle movement separated the two people.
