Chapter 21 He gave the order, but she became the villain
Li Zhi laughed out loud when he saw the call was hung up. "Look everyone, Mr. Gu doesn't even want to answer her call."
Yue Jie once again stood up to speak for Lu Zhenzhu, "Mr. Gu is the boss of the company. Gu Corporation is a listed group. The bosses of large companies are always busy. He might be busy."
He squinted his eyes and warned, "Li Zhi, don't go too far."
Li Zhi didn't take his warning seriously and laughed even more wildly. The whole box was filled with his sarcastic and joyful laughter.
"The president has time to answer the phone, but Mr. Gu is even busier than the president? This was his wife calling, and he just hung up the phone. It's obvious he doesn't want to pay attention."
"You are deceiving yourself. You are number one."
Yue Jie and Zhong Xin were angry, but Lu Zhenzhu was calmer than anyone else.
The way everyone looked at her changed, becoming one of contempt, disdain, and mockery, and they began to whisper to each other.
"I used to envy her, but now I feel that a simple life is the real life. It's not easy to marry into a wealthy family, and you won't have a say if you marry into one. It's better to find an ordinary man and spend your life with him."
"Exactly. My husband doesn't even dare to hang up on me. He even responds to my WeChat messages immediately."
"That's right. The men in my family listen to me in everything. He makes the decisions on big matters, and I make the decisions on small matters. That's why there are no big problems in our family."
Lu Zhenzhu made another call.
If Gu Huai hung up on her again, she could use this as an excuse to quarrel with him when she got home.
Li Zhi saw that she didn't feel ashamed at all and didn't react at all. It was like he had punched cotton, and in the end he was the only one who was upset.
"Don't call me anymore. Mr. Gu won't answer even if you call him again. He's already tired of you."
The phone was hung up again. Lu Zhenzhu slowly pursed her lips, suppressing the corners of her lips that wanted to rise.
She wouldn't lose a single ounce of flesh if they laughed at her.
Compared to divorce, none of these things matter.
Gu Huai didn’t answer the phone, that’s great!
She picked up her bag and was about to leave to find Gu Huai to question him, but when she saw the tall figure at the door, her expression changed.
Gu Huai was wearing a black shirt, his legs were long and straight, and his narrow eyes looked coldly at Li Zhi.
"How come I didn't know that there was a problem with my wife's relationship?"
He stopped beside Lu Zhenzhu, put his arm around her shoulders, and pulled her into his arms.
When Li Zhi saw this scene, he was stunned and at a loss.
What's going on?
"What's your name?" Gu Huai's tone was calm, but the cold light in his eyes was like a sharp sword, making Li Zhi feel as if someone was strangling him, unable to utter a word.
He didn't say anything, and Gu Huai looked at Zhong Xin.
Zhong Xin touched the tip of his nose and said Li Zhi's name and company.
Li Zhi's heart skipped a beat. He didn't dare to glare at Gu Huai, but could only glare at Zhong Xin.
"Spreading rumors that Ah Zhu and I have a marital discord,
Where did this fake news come from? Talk to your lawyer."
Li Zhi's face turned pale. "Mr. Gu, I was just being rude and said something nonsense. Don't let the lawyer come to me. I apologize to her."
He kept apologizing to Lu Zhenzhu.
"Schoolgirl, I'm a bad mouth. You're right. I just want to satisfy my bad mouth. We're from the same school and in the same major. Can you please let me go?"
Seeing Gu Huai was like a cat seeing a mouse. Facing her arrogance, Lu Zhenzhu showed contempt, but she didn't expect that the matter would become a hot topic later. Everyone knew that she and Gu Huai had a good relationship, which was not good for her.
"Let him go."
Gu Huai lowered his eyes to look at her and said softly, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Li Zhisong's tone was relaxed, and his indifferent voice sounded again, "Since you are so rude, I will give it a good spanking so that it won't say anything it shouldn't say again."
His heart was hanging in his throat again, and Li Zhi looked at Lu Zhenzhu pleadingly.
She turned a blind eye.
"Don't want to fight?" Gu Huai narrowed his eyes, his gaze as sharp as a knife.
Li Zhi's heart trembled, seeing that all the familiar faces were looking at him, no one spoke for him, they were all just watching the show.
He gritted his teeth, raised his hand and slapped himself in the mouth, one slap after another. Gu Huai didn't ask him to stop, and he didn't dare to stop, for fear of the man's cold gaze.
Lu Zhenzhu listened to the sound of slapping and looked up at Gu Huai.
The man smiled, his eyes as gentle as water, "Azhu, are you satisfied?"
She suddenly felt a chill on her back.
She didn't let him ask Li Zhi to slap her.
After he said this, Li Zhi didn't dare to hate him, so he could only hate her.
Lu Zhenzhu was annoyed. "What do you mean by 'I'm satisfied or not'? I didn't ask him to slap me."
Gu Huai followed her words, "Azhu didn't give in, I gave in."
"Still not satisfied."
He looked at Li Zhi coldly, "Did you not eat? Don't you have any energy?"
Lu Zhenzhu's eyes flashed with fire, "I'm satisfied, let him go."
Gu Huai didn't say anything else, nor did he give Li Zhi any extra glances. He just looked at her with a smile.
Li Zhi stopped what he was doing, his cheeks were a little swollen, he was so embarrassed today!
Looking at Lu Zhenzhu angrily, Li Zhi left in disgrace.
After he left, Gu Huai pulled Lu Zhenzhu to sit down. Seeing this, the people next to them took the initiative to give up their seats to him and sat in the chair vacated by Li Zhi.
Seeing that he also wanted to stay and have dinner with everyone, Lu Zhenzhu felt her scalp tingling when she thought of what he had just said. She wondered if Gu Huai was still waiting to set a trap for her.
"I want to go back."
"Okay, let's go home then." Gu Huai took her hand and looked at everyone, "Put my name on the table for today's meal. Thank you for taking care of Ah Zhu in school."
He left with Lu Zhenzhu in his arms and went to the front desk to settle the bill.
Lu Zhenzhu sat in the car and waited for the driver to raise the partition before she asked, "How did you know I had a dinner party tonight?"
Thinking back to when she went to see a lawyer before, she always felt like someone was watching her.
She didn't notice it, but now she feels that it was Gu Huai who asked someone to follow her.
If he can do something like drugging someone, what else can't he do?
"Aunt Zhang told me." Gu Huai touched her face, "Are you unhappy that I showed up?"
She did tell Aunt Zhang that she had a dinner party and asked her not to cook her dinner.
"Your words will please me?" She turned her face away, not liking his touch.
The smile on Gu Huai's face disappeared, and he lay back, his eyes still looking at her.
"Azhu, your friends all envy you for marrying me. We have a good relationship and will not divorce. Li Zhi holds a grudge against you, but as long as you are my wife, he won't dare retaliate against you."
"The plagiarism incident hasn't completely passed. If you divorce me, your career won't improve. How will you support yourself?"
He analyzed it to her calmly like a bystander.
"Be a good wife to me. The days when we love each other as before will be the best for you."
Lu Zhenzhu was furious when she heard this.
The best?
What he considered best was not what she wanted.
She didn't know he was a substitute before, but now that she knows, she still wants to stick with him?
