Gu Xiuyuan was choked. She knew very well that this was not what he wanted to hear.
In the past, even if he saw a boy talking to her, she would explain: Xiuyuan, don't misunderstand, we are just classmates.
Available now...
She let him have wild thoughts and even added fuel to the fire!
"Gu Xiuyuan, when you said those words, were you slapping me in the face or yourself?" She looked up into his eyes.
"You don't have to doubt our relationship. At least... it's not like your relationship with Su Yan."
"You just need to know that if it wasn't the 'other man' you mentioned, you would have collected my body long ago."
"Oh~" she said, and suddenly she seemed to have an epiphany, then tilted her head and chuckled: "Or, you are just regretting that you couldn't collect the body because of him?"
"Ji Shuyu!!" Gu Xiuyuan shouted angrily, roaring at the top of his lungs.
He was almost driven crazy by this heartless little girl. She actually said such a thing!
"Ever since you came back from your hometown, City A, you've been looking for trouble everywhere." Seeing him lose control, Ji Shuyu calmed down. "Gu Xiuyuan, you've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, right?"
"I'm looking for trouble?" Gu Xiuyuan laughed in anger.
"You went to see He Yanzhi in the middle of the night. Was it me who was looking for trouble?"
"You used your first month's salary to buy him a gift, and I'm picking on you?!"
Gu Xiuyuan gnashed his teeth more and more as he spoke. He Yanzhi actually put the cufflinks into his chest pocket in front of him and told him that they were priceless?!
"Do you think that cheap gift of yours is really worthy of someone else's status?"
Ji Shuyu's face turned pale. Cheap?
My body suddenly felt weak.
"I only realized later that those gifts I wanted to buy for you were just my own indulgence."
Gu Xiuyuan froze for a moment when he heard this.
That's not what he meant...
"In order to buy those things, I went out to hand out flyers, worked as a laborer, and worked hard to get scholarships, but in your eyes, they were so "cheap" that they were not worthy of your status..."
Her voice trembled slightly, and she leaned against the wall, her heart aching.
"Yes, that gift was really cheap." She lowered her eyes. "But at least he won't trample on my gratitude just because it's cheap."
“…”
Gu Xiuyuan looked at her, and the regret in his heart disappeared instantly.
Is it because the broken thing is "priceless" that she feels its "value"?
"Ji Shuyu..."
"Gu Xiuyuan, if you regret sending Su Yan away, you can call a halt at any time. There's no need to impose those disgusting charges on me. Not everyone is as shameless as you."
"Bottom line, what's your bottom line?" He was getting angry and started to speak without thinking. "Is your bottom line to see other men while your husband is away on business?"
While he's on a business trip?
"Did I cheat on you?" she asked. "Did I leave my husband and stay out all night?"
"Or, who did I bring home..."
Her questions left Gu Xiuyuan speechless.
"You already knew I was going to see He Yanzhi, so you rushed back. Were you worried about me, or did you come back to catch me cheating?"
Gu Xiuyuan's ears were buzzing, and he seemed to hear the sound of his own blood vessels beating.
"Those people you sent, are they to protect me or to monitor me..."
“Ji Shuyu!!”
He felt like he was about to vomit blood because of her anger.
He was so worried about her, and she actually said he was doing it to spy on her?!
Even though he was going crazy because of He Yanzhi's affairs, he still told himself to believe her. Since she didn't mention it, he didn't ask.
He didn't ask the people sent to protect her about her whereabouts because he didn't want the protection to be distorted, but she actually distorted his intentions in this way.
Just as his chest was boiling with anger, his cell phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Gu? This is the Airport Expressway. A Miss Su has had an accident. Would you be able to come over?"
Gu Xiuyuan's face changed instantly when he heard this.
Ji Shuyu smiled.
She knew that things would not end, and then she looked at the man who had been so confident with her just a moment ago but now had a worried look on his face, and said with a smile: "Gu Xiuyuan, if you die tomorrow, we will divorce."
She had a mocking smile on her face, but she didn't really want to stop him from leaving.
She was just using this as a way to fight back!
So, she was saying that since he could go find Su Yan, he had no right to care about her and He Yanzhi, right?!
Or, is this just a prelude to prepare for his own retreat?
He was furious in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face.
"Xiaoyu, have I spoiled you recently?" he asked. "Do you think you can threaten me?"
He slowly raised his hand to tidy up her messy hair. She had never seen such a dangerous aura in him before.
"Ji Shuyu." He leaned close to her ear and slowly held her earlobe. "Even if I leave, you can't divorce me."
"It's fine if you're being willful and throwing a tantrum, but if you mention those two words again, I'll really get angry."
His cool breath touched her ears, just like the words he had said to her in the study that day, "We are the ones who ...
"He Yanzhi, you better stay away from him. I don't care what you think of him or what he thinks of you, but you better stop it in time." He gently pinched her chin. "You know what I hate the most, right?"
The smile in his eyes carried a hint of madness, which made Ji Shuyu feel a little scared.
It was clearly him who had been betraying her, but now the blame fell on her.
"Gu Xiuyuan, your double standards are just as disgusting as the 'betrayal' you hate." She desperately suppressed her fear: "Wait until you're farther away from Su Yan, then come and ask me for something!"
He saw the timidity in her eyes immediately and chuckled.
The courage I mustered was instantly shattered.
He looked at the fear in her eyes calmly, then gently stroked her head. "Are you scared?"
"Don't be afraid, how could I bear to hurt you!"
Although it was clearly a soothing gesture, Ji Shuyu got goose bumps on her back.
"I'm going out for a while now." He pinched her cheek, "Get some rest early."
He turned and went downstairs, and Ji Shuyu's body gradually became weak.
This was the first time, the first time I felt scared from the bottom of my heart, the first time I had the thought of running away.
"Gu Xiuyuan!" She looked at the man walking down and said firmly: "I will tell you tomorrow, between Su Yan and me, it's either her or me, it's either me or her..."
Gu Xiuyuan turned around and looked at her indifferently, as if he didn't take her words to heart. Instead, he looked at her as if she were a willful child.
"Be good and wait for me at home." He said and went out directly.
This feeling of powerlessness from within and without is suffocating.
She was so angry that her body was shaking. She had no place to vent the anger in her chest, and she felt so blocked that she felt like she was about to explode.
Gu Xiuyuan, you've gone too far!!
…
At the same time, Su Yan was in the ambulance, waiting for Gu Xiuyuan's arrival...
