☆, Chapter 37: True and False
Mr. Gu and the others were nervous because they didn't expect Bai Yifan to be here too.
Originally, they heard that Gu Ran was eating melons on the top floor, and they wanted to join in the fun. However, when they arrived, they found that Bai Yifan was also there. Both of them were sneaking around and were guarding the door, which made it impossible for them to go forward and join in the fun.
Gu Ran was nervous because it was too sudden. He didn't understand why his family suddenly came to this deserted top floor, and he was also afraid that the noise from too many people would alarm the two people in the piano room.
Bai Yifan was not afraid of these. He looked down at his current posture, and suddenly a word that was very popular on the Internet recently emerged in his mind - a strong sense of stealing.
He used to think that he was someone who had little interest in prying into other people's privacy.
However, after arriving at Gu's house, he inexplicably ate a lot of melons.
This time... I was hiding outside the door with Gu Ran, sneaking around like a thief. It really felt like a strong case of stealth.
Unfortunately, the Gu family saw it and the situation was extremely embarrassing.
The two sides confronted each other for about ten seconds, and the time seemed to be infinitely stretched.
Just when Bai Yifan was about to go over to explain, Gu Ximing in the elevator seemed to suddenly come back to life, raised his hand and pressed the button to close the elevator door.
The elevator door slowly closed, blocking each other's sight, as if it was just an accidental encounter because they accidentally pressed the wrong floor.
Gu Ran and Bai Yifan were both confused, but out of consideration for the two people in the room, no one dared to speak. They could only turn around with a confused look and continue eating melons.
There's no way. I can only eat half of the melon, which is too much of a test of my curiosity. Anyway, it's already so chaotic, so I might as well just listen to it to the end.
Bai Yifan thought with some self-deprecation.
Inside, Cheng Shan seemed to be badly hit by Gu Na and began to give up on himself.
"Nana, you said you weren't with me for money!"
"If it's not for money, then what am I doing it for?" Gu Na laughed and did not hide her contempt for Cheng Shan.
"Who in this world doesn't care about money? Can you? If you could, why would you marry into the Gu family? Why would you marry Gu Xuemei, whom you don't love at all and even hate?"
"You said it a long time ago that you didn't marry Gu Xuemei out of love, and she doesn't love you either. You two started sleeping in separate rooms right after you got married."
"If it wasn't necessary, you wouldn't even hold Gu Xuemei's hand. You despise her to this extent, but aren't you forcing yourself to continue to deal with all this just for the sake of money?"
"You love money so much and are willing to sacrifice so much for it, so why can't I love it?"
"Don't you think this question itself is ridiculous?"
"If it wasn't for money, why would I be with you? Are you younger, more handsome, more gentle and considerate than others?"
"Why don't I find a better-looking guy with a better figure and a little wolfdog to coax me every day?"
Gu Na's series of questions left Cheng Shan speechless.
Gu Ran was so excited that he wanted to applaud.
[Beautiful! Miss Gu Na is truly a role model for our generation. This statement is not only well-reasoned and convincing, but also full of philosophical spirit, isn't it?]
[That's how it is. You covet my youth and beauty, and I covet your generosity. I coax you and provide you with emotional value, and you spend money on my enjoyment of life. We each get what we need and owe nothing to each other.]
Why do some men always like to use love to pretend to be affectionate? They act it out so often that they start to believe it themselves. My fourth uncle actually thinks he's a romantic saint, but he's clearly a total jerk in love!
[I used to think being in love and being a jerk couldn't coexist, but now I know they can.]
[Fourth uncle is just such a person!]
[He said it as if he really liked Gu Na, but he actually just liked Gu Na, a helpless and pitiful orphan. Weren't the female college students he had previously dated all of this type?]
The Gu family, scratching their heads downstairs but unable to get close to the melon, asked: What? Chengshan actually kept a female college student. When did that happen? This fourth uncle is really good at hiding things!
[A gambling father, a mother who died young, a younger brother who goes to school, and a broken woman.]
[Fourth Uncle's favorite is this type of guy. It allows him to fully express his masculinity, which makes him very happy.]
[The women he kept in the past weren't all this type, and no one blamed him for taking advantage of them. Now he blames Gu Na's family for being money-hungry. A cheating scumbag still wants to claim the moral high ground. Please, he should have some self-awareness!]
[Gu Na simply loves her job and has a deep respect for her profession. Her acting is more pitiful than those college students, which arouses men's desire to protect her.]
[Think about the current state of the entertainment industry. Those idol stars who earn tens of millions in salary don’t have the acting skills of Gu Na.]
[With this kind of acting and this kind of professionalism, he only performs for his fourth uncle, so two million a month really isn't much. After all, his fourth uncle doesn't make his money on his own.]
If Cheng Shan could hear Gu Ran's thoughts and complaints, he would probably faint from anger like Gu Guofeng and Gu Guoyan.
But even if he couldn't hear, Gu Na's words and attitude, which were so blunt that they couldn't be more blunt, forced him to wake up.
His eyes gradually changed, from the confusion and shock of not knowing Gu Na to enlightenment, as if he suddenly understood something.
Cheng Shan grabbed Gu Na's wrist and pulled her in front of him with a vicious expression.
"So you've been lying to me, you've been lying to me!"
"Lie?" Gu Na wasn't panicked or afraid, she was calm and even indifferent. "It's an adult game for everyone to get what they want, Fourth Uncle..."
Gu Na emphasized her tone.
"You already knew about Gu Guofeng and I, and it was you who advised me to be patient a little longer."
"You were the one who pretended to be ignorant and wanted to beat someone up last night to vent your anger."
"You didn't lie?"
"If you really wanted to play pure love, you should have divorced Fourth Aunt and married me a long time ago, right? Otherwise, aren't you afraid that I would love you to death and be heartbroken?"
"I..." Chengshan was stunned by the question.
He remembered that Gu Na had indeed tested him and asked him if he wanted a divorce.
How did he respond?
I have forgotten about it. Anyway, he found an excuse to refuse.
His current comfortable life all comes from the Gu family. Gu Xuemei is not an ignorant girl, and divorce will not give him much advantage.
How could he lose everything he had worked so hard for Gu Na? After all, the reason he pursued Gu Xuemei was because she was the only daughter of the Gu family.
If he loses Gu Na, he can find someone else. There are so many poor girls waiting for him to love them...
But after losing his identity as the son-in-law of the Gu family, no matter how arrogant he was, he knew in his heart that his life could no longer be like this.
"You liar, you woman who's full of lies. You said you were raped by Gu Guofeng, but you were just trying to trick me into falling for you, just to make me sympathize with you and like you..."
Gu Na: “It’s true.”
Gu Ran: [It’s true.]
Gu Ran: [Aside from saying love is fake, Gu Na really didn't say anything else that was false.]
The Gu family was shocked: What's going on? Why did something so strange suddenly appear that they couldn't understand? Gu Na...
