Chapter 5 Gu Jingchu, You Make Me Sick
"To be frank, Chen Yuan was born into a humble family, and the fact that the prince was willing to marry her was a blessing she had earned through many lifetimes. Now she dares to get angry with the prince and embarrass him."
Zhao Wenyuan said as he moved closer to Gu Jingchu, "Prince, I'm telling you, this girl shouldn't be spoiled. The more you pamper her, the more she becomes clueless."
"It's like this ring. She gave it to you, so you wore it. It made her feel that you couldn't leave her and that you cared about her."
Gu Jingchu glanced at the ring and scoffed, "It's just that there is an engagement. She came to the door of our Gu Mansion with the token of love and begged for it. If it weren't for my grandfather forcing me, who would be willing to marry her!"
"It's just a broken ring. If you think it's good, I'll give it to you."
As he said that, he threw the ring to Zhao Wenyuan.
Chen Yuan was standing not far away, and she could hear the conversation clearly.
The knuckles of her hand holding the whip were white.
I'm not angry that my sincerity was betrayed.
But it is because the sincerity of any woman in this world should not be wasted.
When the ring was thrown into Zhao Wenyuan's hand, Gu Jingchu suddenly felt it was very eye-catching.
A trace of unhappiness welled up in his heart, and he said irritably: "Where is Chen Zhao? He is so slow in getting a few jars of wine! He is so useless!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man with eyebrows and eyes that looked 70% similar to Shen Yuan came over with several jars of wine.
"Brother-in-law, the wine has been brought in. Where should we put it?" Shen Zhao said with great difficulty.
"Brother-in-law, did your sister marry the prince? Why do you call me brother-in-law all the time?" Zhao Wenyuan said with a smile.
Shen Zhao's face immediately turned red. He put the wine jar on the table and stood aside awkwardly.
Gu Jingchu frowned, "Why don't you pour wine for Mr. Zhao to apologize? You are like a piece of wood."
Shen Zhao offended Zhao Wenyuan in the academy.
Gu Jingchu called Shen Zhao over just to use Zhao Wenyuan to embarrass Shen Zhao.
So that Shen Zhao can go back and tell Shen Yuan.
Without Gu Jingchu, his Shen siblings would not be able to gain a foothold in the capital!
Shen Zhao clenched his fingers into fists at his side. For his sister, he was willing to endure all humiliation.
Shen Zhao poured a glass of wine and toasted it to Zhao Wenyuan, "Mr. Zhao, I was wrong before, please forgive me."
Zhao Wenyuan leaned lazily on the back of the chair, "Young Master Shen, what did you say? I can't hear you."
Under normal circumstances, Zhao Wenyuan would definitely give face to Gu Jingchu.
But today it was clear that Gu Jingchu was going to cause trouble for Chen Zhao.
Then it's no wonder he did that.
"Mr. Zhao, I was wrong before, please forgive me." Shen Zhao lowered his head and said it again.
Zhao Wenyuan then sat up and raised his hand to take Shen Zhao's wine glass.
His hand shook and the wine glass fell to the ground, spilling the wine all over his shoes.
Zhao Wenyuan smiled maliciously, “Young Master Shen, you are so mean, how about this, you kneel down and lick my shoes clean, and this matter will be over.”
The veins on Shen Zhao's forehead bulged, and he was trying his best to endure it.
Gu Jingchu frowned, thinking that Zhao Wenyuan had gone too far.
But when he thought of Chen Yuan's arrogant look yesterday, he didn't say anything to stop him.
"Why not? You should know that your elder sister has just displeased the prince. If you bring trouble upon him again, how can the prince put his face to rest?"
"Maybe he'll have to break off the engagement with your sister. If this woman gets her engagement broken off, she'll be drowned in spit."
Zhao Wenyuan took the wine jug, raised his hand and poured half of the wine beside his feet, "Kneel down and lick it clean."
Shen Zhao clenched his hands tightly and glared at Zhao Wenyuan angrily.
Suddenly, a horse whip was swung over!
The horse whip, mixed with the sharp sound of wind, knocked the wine jug out of Zhao Wenyuan's hand with a snap, and also knocked the ring out of his hand.
Shen Yuan walked over step by step, her eyes red and her lips bleeding from her bite marks.
She raised her hand to steady Shen Zhao, "Zhao'er, stand up straight."
Shen Yuan's tone was unstable. A'di was humiliated because of her.
This time she saw it, but what about when she didn't see it? How many times did this happen?
Shen Yuan suddenly appeared and the scene became quiet for a moment.
She protected Shen Zhao behind her, and the last trace of warmth in her eyes disappeared when she looked at Gu Jingchu.
"You're the one who allowed others to insult my brother, right?"
Gu Jingchu looked at Shen Yuan lazily, his expression calm, "So what? Shouldn't Shen Zhao apologize for doing something wrong?"
"And you, Yuan'er, you're too spoiled. If I don't teach you a lesson today, you might not know who has been protecting you."
The people around him burst into laughter. "So what if the prince teaches you a lesson? It's only natural for a man to teach a woman a lesson!"
"That's right, don't you look at your own background? It's only out of kindness that the prince agreed to the marriage. In my opinion, with your background, being a concubine is already a great honor."
Zhao Wenyuan looked at Gu Jingchu's attitude and said even more unscrupulously: "I said that women should not be spoiled. You just ignored her, my lord, and now she comes to you eagerly to apologize..."
The aroma of wine spread, interrupting Zhao Wenyuan's words.
Shen Yuan carried a jar of wine and poured it over his head without hesitation.
She moved very quickly. Before Zhao Wenyuan could react, she kicked him to the ground and stepped on his face. "If you want to lick me so badly, lick it yourself."
After saying that, she whipped the ring with the whip again.
“Snap—”
With a sound, the exquisitely carved white jade ring instantly broke into two pieces.
You could hear a pin drop. Chen Yuan looked at Gu Jingchu, whip in hand, "Gu Jingchu, you have once again refreshed my understanding of you. I originally thought you were just fickle, wavering, and arrogant."
"Back then, you saved me, and I fell in love with you. It was my sin. I don't blame you for violating my sincerity. It's my fault for being blind. But I've already paid off the life I owe you."
It was Chen Yuan from the previous life. He endured a lifetime of hardship and had to pay it back with his life.
Chen Yuan gripped the whip tightly in her hand, her nails almost digging into her palm. "I didn't expect that you would insult Zhao'er, who has always regarded you as a family member..."
Chen Yuan's tone was frighteningly calm. She had never hated Gu Jingchu so much before she died in her previous life.
Now I wish I could skin him alive!
"This marriage was promised by you, Gu Jingchu, saying it had to be me. I can refuse to marry. My Shen siblings don't need your protection, Gu Jingchu."
"Sister, don't worry about me. You can't cancel the engagement." Shen Zhao said sullenly, clenching his fists.
Shen Yuan glanced at Shen Zhao gently, then turned to look at Gu Jingchu, her eyes as sharp as a knife, "Gu Jingchu, you really make me sick."
The surroundings were eerily quiet, with only Gu Jingchu looking a little flustered.
When had he ever said she was the only one he could have? How could he have forgotten?
It seemed a bit too much, but breaking off the engagement was impossible. He actually liked Chen Yuan, but he was a little disgusted by her background.
Seeing that she had been acting abnormally these past few days, I just wanted to teach her a lesson, but how did it turn out like this?
He looked at Chen Yuan and suddenly felt guilty, so he pretended to be very magnanimous and said, "Forget it, you are in a bad mood today, I won't bother with you and take your brother back first."
She slapped Zhao Wenyuan in the face today, and he came to clean up the mess for her, which was considered as compensation.
"Go back! You want to leave after stepping on my face? How can you get away with it!" Zhao Wenyuan roared as he lay on the ground like a maggot.
He got up, grabbed a wine jar without thinking, and threw it at Chen Yuan!
The moment the wine jar hit her, Shen Yuan swung the whip in her hand.
The whip sounded, and Zhao Wenyuan was beaten so hard that he crawled on the ground, spitting out dirty words.
Chen Yuan's eyes were so terrifying that no one could stop him for a moment.
Only after she had whipped Zhao Wenyuan until he shut his mouth did she retract the whip and pull Shen Zhao out.
Zhao Wenyuan looked at Chen Yuan with a sinister and vicious look in his eyes!
