Chapter 200: The Argument – The Conflict Between Queen Gu and Xiao Yan'er
Although Fu Heng was angry, he handled the situation with elegance. Despite being furious about Gu Mingxia's unacceptable words, he got up to leave before he could lash out at her.
"Fu Heng, I'm sorry, I... that's not what I meant, I... anyway, I'm very sorry."
Seeing Fu Heng so angry, Gu Mingxia hurriedly stood up. The more she tried to explain her feelings, the more incoherent she became. Fu Heng glanced at her, said nothing, and turned to leave the private room.
Hearing the door close, Gu Mingxia sat down on the sofa with a heavy heart, her hands clasped together and supporting her forehead.
She hurt Fu Heng once again. Knowing that he cared a lot about her opinion on his feelings for him, she still chose to hurt him again and again. Gu Mingxia herself felt that she had gone too far.
Looking at the shoe tips on the ground, Gu Mingxia truly regretted why she had come to persuade Fu Heng tonight.
Alas, you reap what you sow! She truly understood this saying deeply.
Just as she was feeling incredibly frustrated, her phone suddenly rang. Gu Mingxia took it out of her bag and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. Her first thought was of Liu Qianhua.
After hesitating for a moment, I answered the phone. Sure enough, the voice on the other end was Liu Qianhua's.
"Miss Gu, I'm so sorry to call you so late. I... what should Fu Heng say?"
"Miss Liu, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I... couldn't persuade Fu Heng either. I guess he's already stormed off to the Fu family in a huff!"
"I see. But thank you very much, Miss Gu. I'm really sorry to have troubled you tonight."
Liu Qianhua's tone was filled with disappointment, and Gu Mingxia was also filled with guilt. She had long known that Fu Heng was a man of strong principles, but she still promised Liu Qianhua that she would give it a try, and in the end, she was still disappointed.
“I’m sorry, I… I really can’t persuade him. He… is too principled. Miss Liu, if you had told your grandfather the truth, I don’t think he would have had too many regrets. His wish to see you and Fu Heng get married is simply because he wants to see his most beloved granddaughter have a reliable home.”
"Okay, thank you, Miss Gu. I won't bother you any longer. Goodbye."
"goodbye."
Feeling utterly disappointed, Gu Mingxia hung up the phone and lay down on the sofa, looking at the large chandelier emitting a soft glow above her head. She felt completely exhausted.
Many people in the company envy her. She has a cold and wealthy fiancé like Xiao Yan, a perfect gentleman admirer like Fu Heng, and is also entangled with a nouveau riche, Bai Zixuan. Only she knows how troublesome this kind of life is.
Xiao Yan was the only one in her heart, and her greatest wish was to grow old with him.
Fu Heng... she brought it upon herself, no one can be blamed. But such deep feelings would be a burden for Gu Mingxia. She felt that her appearance had ruined Fu Heng's originally perfect life.
As for Bai Zixuan, if she hadn't been soft-hearted and agreed to his marriage proposal back then, would she have avoided this trouble today?
After reflecting on this, Gu Mingxia realized that she was someone who loved to create trouble for herself, and it seemed that everything she was going through was her own doing.
"Xiaxia, where are you?"
"Little Swallow, have you gone home?"
Feeling utterly powerless, Queen Gu asked a question in a very fragile voice. She gripped her phone tightly. Right now, she didn't want to think about anything else but to go home as soon as possible, back to the home that belonged to her and Xiao Yan.
Two people living together seems like a pretty good idea. Looking at the ring on her left ring finger, Gu Mingxia suddenly had an impulse: to get married. She didn't want to ask about anything else now; she just wanted to marry Xiao Yan as soon as possible!
"Just got back. I was entertaining people from MG Company today, it was so boring. I was planning to come back and find you for some comfort, but you weren't home. I asked Zheng Liu, and he said you didn't let him come with you either."
Having witnessed Bai Zixuan's confession, Xiao Yan knew Gu Mingxia must be feeling terrible. He had originally planned to take her out for a relaxing and romantic getaway after work, but then a high-ranking executive from MG Company unexpectedly arrived in Xiangcheng, and as the president of Maoguang Group, he had to entertain him. However, when he returned, Queen Gu was nowhere to be found!
"I'm at the 7UP Hotel, Little Swallow, let's get married."
Sometimes, getting married really requires a burst of impulse. If proposing is the first step, then taking that final step really requires a moment of impulse. People who hesitate too much and overthink things simply cannot enter into marriage.
Only an impulsive person like Gu Mingxia would suddenly propose marriage.
"Are you unhappy? Did something happen? I'll come pick you up now."
As Xiao Yan unbuttoned his suit jacket, he heard Gu Mingxia's weak voice and sensed that she must be in a very bad mood.
He had whispered so many sweet nothings in her ear before, but she still wouldn't agree to get married. Now that she suddenly took the initiative to talk about marriage, based on Xiao Yan's understanding of Gu Mingxia, something must have happened.
Lenovo's association with Gu Mingxia has caused her to have some trouble, and Xiao Yan's heart is in his throat, fearing that another accident might happen to Queen Gu.
"I'm fine, I just suddenly want to get married! You already proposed to me, so why are you hesitant to marry me now?"
Gu Mingxia stared blankly at the chandelier. Recently, Liu Yan and Zheng Liu had been buying things for their wedding everywhere. Looking at the two sweet people, she suddenly remembered that when she and Bai Zixuan got married, they didn't seem to have bought anything, not even a wedding dress. The two of them went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate, and she moved directly to the Bai family home, which was considered completing a major event in her life.
It wasn't until she saw Liu Yan happily preparing all sorts of things that she realized that getting married could be such a happy thing.
"Okay, let's get married! Don't hang up, wait for me to come pick you up, okay?"
Sitting in the car, Xiao Yan plugged in his Bluetooth headset and drove quickly towards the 7UP Hotel. As long as his Queen Gu was alright, he would accept anything, even if she wanted to kill him, let alone marry him.
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you."
Holding her phone, Gu Mingxia sat up straight, her face pale. Fu Heng was the last person she wanted to hurt, but she always ended up hurting him so badly. The thought of it made her feel terrible.
Putting aside emotional factors, Fu Heng was truly a perfect man; he lacked nothing in terms of looks, family background, or height, yet…
"Xiaxia, can you tell me what happened today? Was it because of Bai Zixuan's confessions?"
"You saw everything?"
Xiao Yan's words made Gu Mingxia frown. Bai Zixuan's confessions... she really didn't want Bai Zixuan to keep bothering her like this, but what should she do? Why are there such shameless and persistent people in this world?
"I saw it, but don't worry, I won't mind."
As long as Queen Gu has him in her heart, he won't mind if other men revolve around her every day. On the contrary, he will be happy because it proves that he has good taste and has chosen a high-quality girlfriend!
“Little Swallow, I hurt Fu Heng today, but you have to believe me, I really didn’t intend to make him sad, it’s just… I didn’t expect those words to upset him.”
Gu Mingxia spoke somewhat incoherently, but Xiao Yan still understood that she was in a bad mood because of Fu Heng, and a wave of jealousy immediately welled up in his heart.
"Xiaxia, is it really okay for you to be so heartbroken over another man in front of your fiancé?"
"You should know my feelings. Fu Heng and I are just friends. Besides, if it weren't for him in South Africa, we would all be dead. What, can't I even show some concern for a friend who saved our lives?"
Gu Mingxia's tone rose noticeably. Xiao Yan was already in a bad mood after a night of socializing, and hearing her words made him even more annoyed.
"I didn't ask him to save me, but just because he saved my life doesn't mean I should give up my fiancée to him, does it?"
"Xiao Yan, are you out of your mind today? Are you deliberately picking on me?"
"Gu Mingxia, do you think it's right to think about other men in front of your fiancé and be heartbroken over other men? I think you're the one who's sick!"
After saying that, Xiao Yan hung up the phone and pulled the car over to the side of the road. He leaned back wearily in his seat, opened the window to let the cold wind blow in, his mind replaying Gu Mingxia's words. She had hurt Fu Heng's feelings tonight, so he was also very sad!
"baffling!"
Gu Mingxia looked at her phone, said impatiently, and finished her dinner alone at the table. She picked up her bag and headed out, but when she reached for the bill, the waiter said she had already paid.
Without a doubt, this was bought by Fu Heng. Even if he's angry, he still maintains proper etiquette. Unlike Xiao Yan, who even got angry with her today. That's really too much!
After leaving the hotel, Gu Mingxia went straight to the parking lot. Just as she was about to open the car door and get in, she was stopped by Bai Zixuan, who suddenly appeared.
"Xiaxia, why aren't you answering my calls?"
"Bai Zixuan, if you're sick, go get treatment right away. Stop bothering me all the time, okay?"
Gu Mingxia looked at Bai Zixuan with disgust, who had a smug look on his face. She found him utterly repulsive now.
Did you see my confession to you? Weren't you touched?
"I'll say it again, narcissism is a disease, it needs to be cured! Get out of my way."
Gu Mingxia shoved Bai Zixuan away. Seeing her disgusted expression, Bai Zixuan suddenly felt a surge of anger. Just as Gu Mingxia got into the car, he forcefully pushed her into the passenger seat and squeezed in himself.
"Gu Mingxia, why are you doing this to me! Because of you, I can't even have a child of my own. For you, I confessed my feelings to you and apologized to you in such a grand way. How could you do this to me!"
Bai Zixuan grabbed Gu Mingxia by the neck and shook her shoulders violently. Gu Mingxia felt suffocated, but the car was not very spacious, so she didn't have much strength to resist.
"You clearly love me, you're clearly my wife, Bai Zixuan's wife, why are you treating me like this? Why? Tell me why!"
