What deep-seated grudge does the male lead have against the villain? There's no plot, and we can't even know their past—it's a real headache.
So, were the male lead's interest in and advances towards her that day all related to Gu Bozhou? And was Gu Bozhou's sudden outburst of anger also related to the male lead?
Mr. He stepped forward and said, "We meet again, Miss Wen."
Wan Ge leaned directly into Gu Bozhou's arms and said with a smile, "Mr. He, thank you for coming to our engagement banquet."
Wan Ge raised her glass to the other person.
Mr. He downed the wine in one gulp, his hand gripping the glass tightly. If he hadn't wanted to keep his hand out of the spotlight, the glass would probably have been crushed.
"Wange, you don't need to be so polite as to call me Mr. He. Just call me Yaozhi."
Wan Ge asked with a puzzled look in her eyes, "Mr. He, isn't your name just Leng?"
“Yaozhi is another name of mine.” Yaozhi said this as he walked past Wange: “It’s a name only you can call me.”
Gu Bozhou immediately pulled Wan Ge to the side, preventing any physical contact between the two.
Seeing the scene before her, Jiang Jinyi immediately followed, and when she turned around, she gave Wan Ge a resentful look.
…
"Yaozhi, wait for me." Jiang Jinyi followed the other person out of the garden.
Yao Zhi stopped in his tracks and immediately grabbed her by the neck: "Who gave you permission to call me that?"
"Why can't I call you that? Is it only that woman who can call you that?" Jiang Jinyi gritted her teeth with hatred whenever she mentioned Wan Ge.
"Of course, only Wan Ge can call me by my name."
Jiang Jinyi stared wide-eyed, her face full of disbelief: "What's so great about that woman? How can she compare to me? Why do you like her so much?"
Before today, he was so good to her and liked her so much, so why did he change?
Yao Zhi's face immediately turned cold, and Jiang Jinyi suddenly felt a strong sense of oppression: "What do you think you are, that you have the right to compare yourself to her? I approached you only to take revenge for her. Now you can get lost and don't show your face in front of me again, or you won't even know how you died."
If I hadn't known she bullied Xiao Wange, I wouldn't have bothered with her at all. Who does she think she is?
"A Leng, don't go." Jiang Jinyi hugged the other person tightly, tears streaming down her face. "I was wrong, I'll listen to you, please don't go, I really like you, I really like you."
"Heh. But I don't like you." Yao Zhi shook off the other person and left.
Jiang Jinyi collapsed to the ground and burst into tears. Gu Boyi, who was not far away, took in the whole scene. He did not go forward, but turned around and instructed the servants to help her up and take her home.
…
While Wan Ge and Gu Bozhou were greeting some guests, they heard Ruan Ruan mention this matter.
"This male lead seems to know me quite well. Could he be the past life of this body? Can't we find out about the past life of this body either?"
"Should I give it a try?" Ruan Ruan had lost all confidence. She couldn't find anything in this world, and she couldn't track people down.
"Hurting others with emotions, regardless of gender, is disgusting." Wan Ge recalled her past life, where she had deceived people's feelings; she was guilty. So perhaps this world was a form of retribution.
Wan Ge glanced at Gu Bozhou beside her again. His face was heavy, and she wondered what he was thinking.
