Chapter 97: Deep Water
Gu Xixing patiently replied, "There's no need for a marriage certificate. Everyone in your circle knows what's going on with your marriage. A marriage certificate doesn't mean your relationship is good, right?"
"What do you mean? Arguing with me?"
"I didn't say that. I just explained that Tu Ran and I are just friends."
"Shut up and stay away from her. I don't like seeing you."
"Tu Ran doesn't need a friend like you. Our Xie family has plenty of money. We don't have much to do with a medicine seller like you."
"You have no say in this matter."
"It depends on what Tu Ran means. Of course, if you're a man, don't make things too difficult for her."
"You're the CEO, high and mighty, and she's an orphan, a member of a vulnerable group. Why would you do that? The older generation always says that doing more good deeds is beneficial. You know what I mean, Mr. Xie."
After saying that, Gu Xixing walked out of the hospital with a smile on his face, but Xie Nancheng's face became even darker and more frightening.
This Gu Xixing is really a smiling tiger with a dagger hidden in his heart.
Although he looked smiling, what he said was not nice, and he almost lost his composure in just a few words.
After Gu Xi walked away, Xie Nancheng returned to the ward.
Tu Ran was angry and turned his back to him.
Xie Nancheng didn't say anything. He picked up the baby's breath on the bedside and threw it directly into the trash can.
Throwing it into the trash can was not enough, so he rang the bell and shouted, "Nurse, come here."
"Boss Xie, what can I do for you?"
"Throw this broken thing away from me. It's so annoying to look at."
"Okay, okay." The nurse didn't dare to ask more questions.
"The trash can is empty. It's so dirty." Xie Nancheng kicked the trash can hard.
I wish this trash can was Gu Xixing himself.
After the nurse left, he pulled over a chair and sat down, taking out a cigarette from his arms.
The sound of a lighter rang out, and Tu Ran turned his head. "If you want to smoke, go out."
"This is a ward, and I'm still a patient."
"Patient? I couldn't tell. When you first came in, I saw you and Gu Xixing talking and laughing."
"You're looking for trouble, aren't you?" Tu Ran said with a cold face.
"Tell me, my Mrs. Xie, how did you and that man get to know each other?"
"How long have you known each other?"
"Have you ever been to bed?"
"How much did I give you last time?"
The boss may have never felt jealous before, so he felt extremely jealous and wished he could turn into a sour lemon.
The words he said were extremely excessive, and every word was insulting.
Of course, it was done on purpose to provoke Tu Ran.
Tu Ran was about to get angry, but suddenly turned around and thought about it, and guessed what he was thinking.
He wanted to see her get furious, but she wouldn't let him and suffocated him.
So Tu Ran adjusted his expression instantly and smiled, "You don't need to know how long we've known each other, but Mr. Gu is indeed attractive."
"Not only did we have sex."
"We also have a three-year-old son."
Xie Nancheng: ...
The moment Tu Ran mentioned her three-year-old son, she saw that Xie Nancheng's nose was about to be crooked with anger.
I suddenly felt very happy and almost laughed out loud.
It turns out that alternative revenge is so satisfying.
"You really are... shameless."
"You're only 22, and you have a three-year-old son with someone else. How old were you when you had the child? Nineteen?"
"What's your business? Don't you want to hear this?"
"Then I said, don't be angry."
"Mr. Gu is just better than you. He won't bully a woman."
"I will never speak ill of a woman."
"Gu Xixing is so kind, so why are you still lying in my hospital bed? Go find him right away and lie down at his house."
"That won't work. I haven't spent enough of your money yet."
"I will spend your money and be with other men, so that I can feel a sense of accomplishment."
Xie Nancheng couldn't hold the cigarette in his hand anymore, and it fell to the ground. He stepped on it hard.
"Tu Ran, don't go too far."
"Xie Nancheng, if you dare to talk to me like this again, believe it or not, I will slap you."
Although Tu Ran has never seen his mother, he will never allow anyone to mention her with insulting words.
The two looked at each other for a moment, both filled with anger.
The atmosphere was extremely tense, and Tu Ran didn't know whether this man would take action.
But she was already prepared. As long as Xie took action, she would be ready.
She must let him taste the plum blossom needle...
Definitely not spoil them.
After more than ten seconds, the anger in Xie Nancheng's eyes suddenly disappeared.
He said, "The Gu family is very deep."
"Don't get too involved with Gu Xixing, that's a good thing."
Xie Nancheng said this in a relatively calm tone, and Tu Ran was not such an unreasonable person, but she did not say anything.
"I'm a businessman, and so is he."
“Businessmen are all about profit. Without profit, they will not get up early.”
"I'm worried that you're being taken advantage of without even realizing it."
"If what you said is sincere and well-intentioned, then I accept it. But it is indeed my freedom to make friends with whomever I want. Xie Nancheng, I have said it before, between us, no one will interfere with anyone else. If you feel you can't stand it, we will divorce, and I will move out of the Xie family as quickly as possible."
"You are alone, without any relatives or friends. Where else can you go after moving out of the Xie family? Are you going back to the Lin family and wait to be eaten by those wolves?" Xie Nancheng questioned, looking at the thin little body.
"That's not your concern."
"Besides, you also have your sister Xuan'er. Don't mess with me, do you hear me?"
"You know Xuan'er? How did you know?" Xie Nancheng was shocked.
He never expected to hear Xuan'er's name from Tu Ran's mouth.
"Did I reveal your secret?"
Judging from Xie Nancheng's expression, it seems that what Xie Jiatong said was right. This Xuan'er is indeed extraordinary.
"You actually know Xuan'er. Who told you?" Xie Nancheng was curious.
"Don't worry about who said it. Is there such a person as Xuan'er?" Tu Ran insisted.
"Of course there is, but Xuan'er... forget it, I'll tell you about this later."
Xie Nancheng didn't want to mention Xuan'er. As soon as he mentioned her, he had a thousand worries and felt very upset.
He didn't want to mention it because he was upset, but in Tu Ran's eyes, she felt that Xie Nancheng couldn't forget his old love.
Looking at his expression, Tu Ran felt that she should remind herself not to fall in love with this man in the future.
No matter how good-looking or attractive he is...
After all, her self-esteem would never allow her to fall in love with a man who has another woman in his heart.
"Do you know what Gu Xixing does?" he asked Tu Ran.
Tu Ran said nothing, his eyes swept over Xie Nancheng calmly.
"I think it's necessary to remind you that the Gu family runs a pharmaceutical factory. They've been doing this for generations. Their pharmaceutical company is well-known throughout the country, and in recent years, several of their Chinese patent medicines have become world-renowned."
"So? What does it have to do with me?" Tu Ran looked down with drooping eyelashes.
"And you, a student of Traditional Chinese Medicine, have some medical skills. So why do you think he approached you on his own initiative? Do you really think you are so beautiful that you can charm President Gu?" The big boss couldn't help but started to sound jealous again.
