Shangguan Wu: "..."
Just as her mother-in-law went upstairs, Gu Yunzhen came in from outside.
Shangguan Wu saw him and asked, "Honey, you're back now?"
"Um."
Gu Yunzhen responded and quickly walked a few steps to her. He gazed at her expression and parted his thin lips slightly: "Are you tired?"
"I'm fine, Mom's tired." Shangguan Wu thought of what Rongrong had said and couldn't help but ask, "I heard from my third cousin that you and Ji Mingjing are very close, is that right?"
"Oh, we're not that close."
Gu Yunzhen picked her up and carried her towards the elevator.
Shangguan Wu felt she was used to being carried in a princess carry by him, and naturally wrapped her arms around his neck.
But listening to his tone, she couldn't help but get the feeling that he was being stubborn.
She says whatever comes to mind.
Was he acting out of spite?
Gu Yunzhen's lips twitched violently twice.
"Madam, please use your words more precisely, otherwise you'll fall to the ground if I don't hold you properly."
Well!
Shangguan Wu raised an eyebrow: "Then will you throw me to the ground?"
Gu Yunzhen glanced down at her and said, "I'll be your scapegoat."
Shangguan Wu considered him barely passable and looked at him curiously, saying, "Then can you tell me what bet you made? Why didn't he step into the Imperial City when you were there, but came to the Imperial City as soon as you left?"
Gu Yunzhen raised an eyebrow: "Really?"
Shangguan Wu was even more surprised than him: "Third cousin said that, don't you remember?"
"It's been too long, I don't remember much. I think he walked into a dead end and couldn't get out."
Gu Yunzhen couldn't remember the specific reason.
After a moment, he added, "But the fact that he came to find you means he must have moved on."
Shangguan Wu exclaimed in surprise, blinking twice: "He came to me because of Rongrong, so he walked into the dead end because of Rongrong too?"
Gu Yunzhen did not answer.
Back in the bedroom, he put her on the bed.
Shangguan Wu quickly stood up and said, "I haven't taken a shower yet, I'm dirty."
Gu Yunzhen, walking towards the bathroom, turned back: "Shall we shower together?"
Shangguan Wu rolled her eyes at him: "No, I don't want to!"
Although she wasn't as tired as her mother-in-law, she didn't want to be unable to get out of bed the next day.
Gu Yunzhen tempted her: "Don't you want to know the answer?"
Shangguan Wu raised an eyebrow at him: "You said your relationship is just so-so, so there's nothing more to say!"
The young couple stopped talking about Ji Mingjing, but Ji Mingjing scolded them!
The reason was that when Rongrong returned home, she told him that she wanted to earn money to buy a house, move out, and have a home of her own.
For a moment, Ji Mingjing thought it was 'her'.
But Rongrong's clear, untainted eyes told him plainly that she was not 'she'.
But they already shared the same idea.
Everyone should leave him!
Ji Mingjing's eyes were dark and unfathomable. He could allow them to take turns teasing him, but he would never allow them to leave him!
He tricked Rongrong into going back to her room.
In an instant, he swept everything on the desk to the floor.
Damn it!
Ji Mingjing's anger erupted.
Hearing the noise, Ji Kong knocked on the door: "Patriarch?"
Ji Mingjing roared, "Get out!"
Ji Kong remained silent, but still stood guard at the door of the study.
Even though the head of the family has become the person in charge of the Ji family, there are still forces in the shadows who want to get rid of him as soon as possible.
At 11:30 p.m., Ji Mingjing, who had been tossing and turning in bed, sat up and called Gu Yunzhen to warn her.
"Tell your woman to mind her own business!"
"If you're sick, go get treatment."
Gu Yunzhen lowered her voice and hung up the phone.
Ji Mingjing found it hard to believe.
He slammed his fist on the ground with a dark expression and struck again.
This time it was answered instantly.
Gu Yunzhen didn't say anything, but she had already quietly left the bedroom.
He walked into the study and then picked up his phone to speak: "Speak, what do you want?"
After launching into a tirade, Ji Mingjing retorted, "Didn't you hear me?"
Gu Yunzhen clicked her tongue: "You want to hear me cursing? Well, sorry, I didn't hear a word."
Ji Mingjing sneered: "Come out and have a fight?"
"No, I'm going to sleep with my wife." Gu Yunzhen said casually, but it still revealed a hint of smugness.
Ji Mingjing: "..."
If he had enough men with him, he would have sent someone to the Gu family to give Gu Yunzhen a good beating!
In the study, Gu Yunzhen sat languidly on the sofa and said in a low voice, "I'm going back to the capital."
Ji Mingjing didn't react for a moment: "And then?"
Gu Yunzhen asked with great interest, "Shouldn't you retreat back into your shell?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Mingjing angrily cursed, "Damn it! Gu Si, have some decency! Don't think I won't touch you!"
Gu Yunzhen's voice was cold: "Next time you want to scold someone, scold me, not my wife."
Ji Mingjing: "…………" So this guy heard everything?
He shouldn't have made that call!
He should have gone straight to the Gu family and smashed Gu Si's head in!
At this moment, Gu Yunzhen's cool voice rang out: "Hurry up, say what you have to say, or shut up. I don't have time to pay attention to your childish thoughts."
A young boy's thoughts?
Young boy?
As if insulted, Ji Mingjing exuded a murderous aura and squeezed out each word through gritted teeth: "Do you want to die?"
His response was that the call was over.
Gu Yunzhen hung up the phone again.
Ji Mingjing hardened his fist!
A few seconds later, his phone rang.
It was Gu Yunzhen calling.
Ji Mingjing stared at it for two seconds before answering the call.
