Gu Xiuyuan's voice was not loud, and even his tone was flat, but this calmness made people feel more pressured.
"What?"
"I say, do you have anything to say to me?" He repeated in a light tone, his eyes falling on her, as if he could see through her at a glance.
No, not see through.
It was the superior who was looking at her, as if to say that everything she did could not escape his eyes, and told her to be honest.
"What do you want to hear?" Ji Shuyu's mood also turned cold.
Ever since he came on the business trip, he has been acting weird. That lukewarm look in his eyes is exactly the same as Xia Mei's.
Oh……
Gu Xiuyuan smiled with a strong sense of irony.
"What do I want to hear?" He stepped forward. "Do you not know and are too lazy to tell me, or do you think no one will know what you've done?"
"What am I doing?!" Hearing his sarcastic tone, Ji Shuyu instantly became furious: "Gu Xiuyuan, you're a grown man, can you please speak directly and stop beating around the bush!"
Looking at her self-assured look, Gu Xiuyuan almost laughed out of anger. Did she really think that he didn't know, right?
"He Yanzhi." He almost gritted his teeth and spat out three words, with coldness in his eyes.
“…”
Ji Shuyu was stunned. "So you were acting weird all the way here just because you saw He Xianbi?" She was speechless for a moment. "We are…"
"Mr. He? Haha..."
His mocking smile interrupted Ji Shuyu's next words.
She wanted to say that they met by chance and just greeted each other politely, and wanted to say that Xiao V was inside, but that mocking smile extinguished all thoughts of explanation.
"What a strange name." Gu Xiuyuan laughed sarcastically, "I didn't know you, I thought you two were really unfamiliar with each other..."
Even from such a distance, he could see the smile on her face, just as dazzling as the smile in the photo that night.
"What do you mean?" Ji Shuyu's face turned cold.
What's the meaning?
He saw it all, but she was still so confident?
"So, you saw us sitting together." Ji Shuyu's face grew colder. "You called to test me."
Testing whether she would lie to him!
She was puzzled as to why his tone on the phone was so strange, and why after getting in the car, he suddenly offered to treat her to dinner.
It turned out that from the very beginning he had determined that she was lying to him and that she would lie to him.
"You asked if you wanted to pick me up, just to hear my answer, to see what I would do next." Her voice grew colder. "You said you wanted to treat us to dinner, just to see if I could get Little V out! Right?!"
Seeing her like this, Gu Xiuyuan only felt more angry. Wasn't she the one who made the mistake first, but she turned around and blamed him?
"What's the matter?" Gu Xiuyuan asked. "The matter is that you lied to me." He slowly approached. "Ji Shuyu, you lied to me for another man."
His eyes were so cold that Ji Shuyu's expression froze for a moment.
laugh……
Ji Shuyu raised her chin slightly and smiled: "What should I do? I was discovered..."
boom--
In an instant, Gu Xiuyuan felt all the blood rushing into his brain.
He grabbed her wrist and pulled her to his side. He thought she would say it was just a coincidence, that it wasn't what he thought it was, but she remained nonchalant even after being exposed.
Ji Shuyu was pulled away, but she raised her chin and looked at him from a distance.
"Ji Shuyu, you're not even willing to lie to me perfunctorily now, right?" He gritted his teeth, trying his best to control his anger, for fear of hurting her.
"I lied~" She smiled, her tone even a little cheerful, "But aren't you angry that I lied to you?"
“…”
"So do you want me to lie to you, or do you not want me to lie to you?" She asked innocently, like a child who couldn't figure out the problem.
"Ji Shuyu!!" Gu Xiuyuan was almost mad with anger.
Her sneering and mocking eyes catalyzed the anger in his heart, but it seemed that the angrier he was, the happier she laughed.
She was goading him.
"So what?" Ji Shuyu laughed. "Since you've already made up your mind, why bother pretending to be so generous and giving me a chance to explain?"
“…”
"Gu Xiuyuan, is this really a misunderstanding, or are you just looking for an excuse to quarrel with me?"
The smile faded, and her expression gradually became cold.
"Excuse?"
"Isn't it?" she asked, "otherwise, why would you test me the moment you speak?"
Gu Xiuyuan's head was buzzing. How could she put the blame on him without changing her expression?
Anger was surging in his heart, and he clenched his fists tightly, trying to control his anger.
I told myself again and again not to argue at this time, but looking at her self-righteous look, I thought that she was gentle and well-behaved in front of He Yanzhi. Even the "Mr. He" became ambiguous and had a different meaning, just like when she called him "Mr. Gu" on the phone before.
He was so angry that he turned around angrily before he could control himself.
Bang——
Ji Shuyu looked at the door that was slammed loudly and her heart trembled.
She remembered what he said, "I have started to deal with everything."
So, now he feels regretful and unbalanced about how he dealt with Su Yan, so he is causing trouble for her like this, right?
Gu Xiuyuan, do you think everyone is like you!
asshole!
…
When Gu Xiuyuan came out of Yuyuan, it was the evening rush hour and traffic was congested.
He lit a cigarette irritably, took two deep puffs, and then put it out violently.
Ji Shuyu's smile, those photos, and even that video kept appearing in his mind. He began to control his ambiguous imagination.
squeak--
He slammed on the brakes.
Gu Xiuyuan, what are you thinking about?
How could you think of Xiaoyu like this?!
But...even if there was no ambiguity, her smile alone was enough to make him lose control.
In the past, she only had him in her eyes, and she remained polite even to Mu Bai and Qin Chuan, whom she knew well.
But since when did she have such a person in her life?
Because she never felt safe, because He Yanzhi saved her, so... he had a special place in her heart, right?
She smiled at him, even stayed with him late at night, and time, when he was away on business...
She lied to him for that person and even ignored his emotions to deliberately provoke him.
She wasn't like this before...
Hands tightly grip the steering wheel!
The phone rang. Looking at the number on Fu Shengkai's phone, he took a deep breath and picked up the phone: "Hello?"
"I heard you were investigating He Yanzhi's father?" Fu Shengkai's steady voice was in stark contrast to the impatience in his heart. "Would you like to come over for a drink?"
At this moment, the three words he hated to hear the most were these three words. When he thought of that name, he felt like his chest was blocked and he couldn't breathe.
"good."
After hanging up the phone, I drove to Eternal Night.
He got out of the car and strode inside.
After walking a few steps, he stopped again, then turned his head to look at the car parked at the door. It looked very familiar...
