Chapter 76 I want a divorce!
Chen Wanrou had never seen such a shameless person. She used to think that Gu Muxi was a good person to her son and not a bad person. It turned out that Gu Muxi was setting a trap for her!
Chen Wanrou couldn't stand this injustice. It was an utterly shameless slander against her. Ignoring the fact that Gu Muxi had just woken up and might not be able to handle the shock, she bluntly said, "Gu Muxi, I have no grudge against you. Gu Jue respects you. Our family has never wronged you. Why are you slandering me like this!"
Gu Muxi's eyes flickered, filled with guilt and a chill in his heart. "Sister-in-law, my brother and father are both intelligent men. Nothing in the Gu family could be hidden from them. The accident back then..."
"What accident back then? What accident happened between you and me!" Chen Wanrou was furious. She looked at Gu Chaoyang, "You don't believe him, do you!"
Gu Chaoyang asked, "Twenty years ago, did you spend two days with him at Baiyun Manor?"
Chen Wanrou recalled for a moment, "I did stay there for two days. I told you at that time that you were busy with work and couldn't go out with me, so I made an appointment with a friend to go there for two days. But then she had something come up, so I stayed by myself. I didn't expect that Gu Muxi was there sketching. He's your brother, so I couldn't just send him away!"
That was all twenty years ago. Back then, when Chen Wanrou reported her whereabouts to Gu Chaoyang, he didn't say anything. Little did she know that such a small matter would be remembered by him for so long.
Chen Wanrou found it unbelievable, "Gu Chaoyang, just because I spent two days with him at that resort, you suspect that there's something between us? Are you crazy! Besides Gu Muxi and me, there were also employees working there. Do you think I'm that kind of person who acts recklessly?!"
Gu Chaoyang frowned slightly.
He only learned about this more than ten years ago when he overheard Gu Muxi's conversation with the old lady. Gu Muxi told the old lady that when he was away, he asked her to take good care of Gu Jue.
The old lady was a very shrewd person, and she immediately sensed that something was wrong. Under her questioning, Gu Muxi had no choice but to tell her the truth. He said that Gu Jue was his child, and the old lady was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Gu Muxi told her not to go looking for Chen Wanrou. He didn't want to cause trouble for Chen Wanrou. He was already very happy that Chen Wanrou was able to give birth to this child. The reason was simply that he had secretly loved this sister-in-law for many years.
Gu Muxi knew he couldn't compare to his older brother. He never intended to ruin his brother and sister-in-law's marriage. In fact, over the years, he had gone further and further away, often staying abroad. If it weren't for the trouble Gu Jue had caused recently, he wouldn't have come back.
Later, Gu Chaoyang did investigate, and it turned out that what Gu Muxi said was true. Chen Wanrou and Gu Muxi stayed at Baiyun Villa for two days, and Gu Muxi had had relations with a woman there.
Speaking of which, Gu Muxi is also a member of the Gu family. As a member of the Gu family, she is bound to attract attention from the outside world. There are quite a few women who want to rely on the men of the Gu family to rise to the top and become a phoenix. Even Gu Muxi doesn't know how she fell into this trap.
That day, heavy snow blocked the mountain pass, preventing outsiders from getting in and those inside from getting out.
Gu Muxi locked himself in his room, intending to tough it out, but that night, someone entered his room.
But they only spent one night together. The next day, the snow melted, and she went down the mountain and left. They didn't see each other for a long time.
When they met again, Gu Muxi learned that Chen Wanrou was pregnant. He knew that his older brother hadn't been back to the Gu family for a long time, and once the date of conception was calculated, it was obvious that the child was his.
He once tentatively asked Chen Wanrou if she wanted to have the child. Chen Wanrou stroked her slightly protruding belly and smiled gently, "He is the child of me and the one I love, of course I want to have him."
It was around that time that Gu Muxi realized that Chen Wanrou had feelings for him.
But Chen Wanrou's continued denial made him smile bitterly. In front of his elder brother, even the most perfect lie is not solid. It would be better to simply admit it and get his brother's forgiveness. Perhaps in the future, the Gu family could still protect their children.
Gu Muxi said softly, "Sister-in-law, on the night twenty years ago when the roads were blocked by heavy snow, I was drugged, and you saved me."
There was a noise coming from the doorway.
The people in the ward looked over and saw a group of people standing at the door.
Chu Xiang pulled Gu Heng aside and said awkwardly, "We were worried you were hungry, so we wanted to ask if you wanted something to eat."
Gu Jue and Su Ruanruan stood on the other side. He stammered, "I... I was worried about my second uncle, so I wanted to... come and see him..."
The conversation between the elders had just deeply affected the younger generation, especially Gu Jue. Looking at the people inside, he was filled with fear and unease. Never in his life had he felt so helpless.
He may not be his father's son; he may be his second uncle's son.
Just thinking about it almost made him lose the courage to stand there.
Perhaps that's why everything makes sense. His parents didn't like him, but his grandmother and second uncle treated him very well. So that's why... there's a reason for all of this.
As soon as Chen Wanrou saw the expressions on everyone's faces, she guessed what they were thinking. Being accused of being unfaithful to her marriage in front of a group of children was an insult to her!
She yelled at Gu Muxi, "Gu Muxi, don't talk nonsense! I have nothing to do with you! You say I went to see you last night? You're dreaming! I'm your sister-in-law! I'd be crazy to go to my brother-in-law's room at night! Don't I care about my reputation?!"
Chen Wanrou was trembling with rage. She had lived a glamorous life and had never been insulted like this before. She looked at Gu Chaoyang and said, "You are my husband, and you actually believed his words? Don't you know whether Gu Jue is your child or not? Twenty years ago, on the night you came back from your business trip, you had a fever. When I was taking care of you in the middle of the night, you suddenly went into heat. Don't you remember!"
The children looked at Gu Chaoyang.
Gu Chaoyang turned his face away uncomfortably.
Chen Wanrou continued to argue with him, "You were still sick the next day, and you said you were going on a business trip. You disappeared early in the morning. Gu Jue got pregnant that night, and it has nothing to do with Gu Muxi!"
Chen Wanrou then looked at the man on the hospital bed, "You said a girl came to see you late at night. All I know is that your assistant said she was going to deliver milk to you late at night. You shouldn't doubt me, even if you doubt her!"
Gu Muxi's expression was inscrutable.
Chen Wanrou's well-maintained face turned bright red with anger. "Fine, you don't believe me, right? Then let's get a paternity test done! Gu Chaoyang, once it's proven that Gu Jue is your biological son, I'm divorcing you!"
Gu Chaoyang's expression changed slightly.
What angered Chen Wanrou most was not being framed by Gu Muxi, but that her husband didn't trust her. She abandoned her composure and, like a shrew, angrily shouted, "I've had enough of living like a widow for so many years! Let me tell you, Gu Chaoyang, if you don't divorce me, you're not a man!"
Chu Xiang and Gu Heng exchanged a glance. She quickly went up to Chen Wanrou and gently persuaded her future mother-in-law to calm down.
Gu Heng calmly asked, "What's the name of Second Uncle's assistant? I can have someone look it up."
Gu Muxi paused, then said, "I only remember that her surname was Su... I think her name was... something like Nian."
Su Ruanruan suddenly said, "Su Xuenian."
Gu Muxi: "Yes, her name is Su Xuenian."
Immediately, everyone looked at Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan's face was extremely ugly.
