Chapter 27 The White Moonlight Gets Forced into Love by the Villain (27)
888: I think you're more like a lawless madman.
"Wife, I just want your kisses, what did I do wrong?" he said righteously.
"Didn't you kiss me enough last night when you secretly kissed my lips until they were swollen?"
"No, wife," Chu Yunxi obediently told the truth.
Yu Sheng: Forget it, why bother arguing with this love-struck fool? He's already in the late stages, what can you expect him to say?
The maids eavesdropping: They never expected that their young master and Master Chu would have such a way of getting along.
A group of maids and aunts watched the two of them with smiles.
Yu Sheng coughed lightly and pulled someone away.
Before leaving, Chu Yunqi, not wanting to miss out on the fun, waved goodbye to everyone, saying, "Goodbye, aunties~ I'm going on a date with my wife now."
The maids smiled and waved to him, saying, "Have a great date!"
Yu Sheng: Are you afraid that people won't know you're going on a date?
The two had just stepped out of the Yu family's gate when Chu Yunqi was still thinking about his date plans, only to be interrupted midway.
"Yu Sheng, let's talk."
It had been a long time since I'd seen Gu Cheng, and the weariness on his face was even more pronounced; he looked as if he'd aged several years.
Upon seeing Gu Cheng, Chu Yunqi immediately felt alarmed. He pulled Yu Sheng behind him and glared at Gu Cheng warily.
His opening line was sarcastic: "Oh, why didn't our young CEO Gu bring his little lover?"
"How can you be so shameless as to go looking for someone else's wife? Don't you have a wife yourself?"
Gu Cheng: My mother tongue is speechlessness.
"Second Master Chu, I'm here to see Yu Sheng, this has nothing to do with you!"
Chu Yunxi laughed sarcastically, "You're looking for my wife, how can it have nothing to do with me? Do you think I'd let a scumbag like you get close to my wife again?"
Chu Yunqi's repeated use of "my wife" sounded extremely grating to Gu Cheng.
Yu Sheng... he should have been her fiancé!
He clenched his fists, his gaze passing over Chu Yunqi to look at Yu Sheng behind him, his eyes filled with an unreadable emotion.
The two were locked in a fierce confrontation, the atmosphere thick with tension.
Yu Sheng patted Chu Yunxi's shoulder, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "When I get back, I'll make him give up."
Although Chu Yunqi was unhappy, she did not stop Yu Sheng's behavior, but instead glared at Gu Cheng.
It's getting cold; the Gu family should probably go bankrupt.
The two walked to the side, and neither of them spoke for a moment.
Gu Cheng couldn't help but speak first, "Yu Sheng, what happened before was my fault, I apologize to you, could you..."
He was interrupted by Yu Sheng before he could finish speaking.
"I accept your apology, but I will not forgive you, and I will not help you take care of your family."
Gu Cheng gave a wry smile. "It seems you've already guessed what I'm going to say."
Yu Sheng did not refute his statement.
Anyone with eyes could see that he came here to ask the Yu family for help, but he wouldn't help them.
Putting aside what Gu Cheng did, even if the Gu family plotted against their family, he would never help them.
"Okay, even though I was mentally prepared before coming, it still feels a little unsettling to hear it from you. If..."
"Gu Cheng," Yu Sheng stopped and looked at him. "There are no 'what ifs' in life!"
Gu Cheng: Can't you let me finish what I have to say?
"But I still have to say, Chu Yunqi is terrifying. His outward innocence is all an act; in reality, he..."
"I know that he is actually petty, vengeful, possessive, and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals."
Now it was Gu Cheng's turn to be dumbfounded.
So he knew all of this? Yet he pretended not to know and indulged Chu Yunxi all along...
Gu Cheng felt empty and uneasy.
Back then, Yu Sheng treated him the same way, but now... it all belongs to Chu Yunxi.
It was even worse than when they treated him before.
888: Pah! Your family is about to go bankrupt, so you see how good other people are doing? Shameless! Even more shameless than Chu Yunxi!
"Cheng-ge, what are you two doing?!"
Xie Yiran suddenly appeared out of nowhere, glaring at them with an angry expression.
He glared fiercely at Yu Sheng, his voice accusing, "Yu Sheng, are you really that jealous of me? You already stole Chu Yunxi, and now you want to steal my Cheng Ge? Aren't you shameless?!"
Yu Sheng: I don't know if I'm shameless or not, but you're pretty shameless right now.
"Wait a minute, please explain yourself clearly. What do you mean by 'I stole Chu Yunxi'? It was a mutual decision between Chu Yunxi and me. If we have to say something, it was Chu Yunxi who pursued me."
"But what does that have to do with you?"
"You're making it sound like Chu Yunxi should have been yours."
Yu Sheng looked at him with a cold smile.
Xie Yiran reacted as if her secret had been exposed, instantly bristling, "You, you're talking nonsense!"
He was spouting nonsense, but a blush rose on his face, making it hard not to doubt the truthfulness of what he had just said.
Gu Cheng took a deep breath. "Yiran, what exactly do you mean by that?"
Xie Yiran looked at him in disbelief. "Brother Cheng, don't listen to his attempts to sow discord. He just can't stand to see us doing well!"
Can't stand to see them doing well?
Gu Cheng gave a self-deprecating laugh.
Now, why would they need Yu Sheng to sow discord between them?
They're already bad enough, so how much worse can they get?
But Xie clearly didn't think that way.
"Yiran, don't be unreasonable..." Gu Cheng pressed his temples wearily and said helplessly.
"Wh-what?!"
"Brother Cheng, how could you say I'm being unreasonable?!" Xie Yiran's voice was sharp and grating, which annoyed Gu Cheng.
"Brother Cheng, are you tired of me and want to get back together with Yu Sheng? Then what am I to you?"
888: Are you the third party?
Xie Yiran persisted in asking for an explanation.
Gu Cheng was extremely annoyed and shouted, "Xie Yiran, that's enough!"
“I never thought that way. It’s you who overthinks things time and time again. Do you know that I’m really getting fed up with you lately?”
"Yes, I regret it. I regret giving up my engagement with Yu Sheng for you. Are you satisfied now?"
Gu Cheng was truly exhausted.
I used to think Xie Yiran was so well-behaved and obedient, but now I find him so annoying.
These past few days, Gu family matters had already been causing him a lot of trouble, and Xie Yiran kept making a scene every now and then. He had really had enough.
No matter how strong the feelings, they will be worn away by repeated doubts and questions.
Moreover, Gu Cheng wasn't exactly a very affectionate person to begin with.
Xie Yiran stood there stunned, her fingertips trembling slightly, staring at Gu Cheng in disbelief.
"So, Brother Cheng, you don't want me anymore?"
Gu Cheng frowned, but finally nodded under Xie Yiran's incredulous gaze.
He was wrong before, otherwise the Gu family wouldn't be in this state now.
If only I had known...
Gu Cheng shook his head. Even if he had known all along, he would still have done the same thing. No one knew him better than himself.
