Chapter 113: Tensions
"You..." Qin Ren frowned, looking at Gu He with a look of disappointment. "A woman can easily fool you around. Isn't it ridiculous!"
Gu He's voice was cold: "You haven't even seen the evidence, but you firmly believe Qin Ruo's one-sided statement. If you say you've been fooled, you're more sophisticated than me."
"Xiao He, how can you talk to us like that!" Gao Lan held Qin Ruo's hand, "You are still Ruo Ruo's fiancé, and you are half a family member. How can you..."
"I've already said it," Gu He interrupted, "My engagement with Qin Ruo is just a temporary solution. I won't become a family with her."
Qin Ren said angrily, "Are you planning to break away from the Qin family?"
Qin Ren thought he was speaking threatening words, but he forgot that in terms of strength, the Qin family was not as good as the Gu family even when it was at its peak, let alone now that its business has shrunk by nearly half.
Gu He was willing to respect Qin Ren before because of Qin Qing and Qin Ruo.
Now that he had seen Qin Ruo's two-faced behavior and witnessed with his own eyes her instigating Qin's parents to deal with Qin Qing, and the family's unreasonable and unruly coercion, his impression of Qin Ruo had been largely shattered.
After discovering so many shocking things about Qin Ruo, Gu He's previous blindness was completely shattered. He felt as if he had been under a spell and had become an idiot who could not be awakened.
Now that he has seen through all of this, Gu He's unconditional support for Qin Ruo naturally no longer exists.
Compared to Qin Qing who was bullied to this extent, he didn't even need to hesitate at all about what to choose.
The Qin family and Yun Ran are in opposition and the situation is tense.
Gu He, who chose to stand firmly beside Yun Ran, naturally no longer had his usual gentle and polite demeanor.
The heir of the Gu Group unleashed his might without restraint, confronting Qin Ren who was trying to overpower him with his power, and the momentum began to reverse in an instant.
Qin Ren found that he was at a disadvantage in front of Gu He, and his face gradually turned pale.
It was also at this moment that his long-lasting composure was torn apart, making him suddenly sober up and realize the gap between himself and the Gu family.
Furious, Qin Ren pointed at Gu He and said, "Do you really want to break up with the Qin family just for a woman?"
Gu He put his arm around Yun Ran, protectively, and replied irritably, "First of all, Ran Ran has a name. Please don't keep referring to her as 'that woman'. This is basic respect."
"Secondly, it's not that I want to break up with the Qin family, it's you who are pushing the envelope and bullying us too much!"
Qin Ruo had never seen Gu He like this and suddenly felt panicked.
Gu He, who grew up with her, has always been soft-hearted and humble towards people close to him.
He doesn't like to argue with people he cares about. If a rift occurs, he will try his best to repair it and mediate, rather than rationally analyzing who is right and wrong and judging rewards and punishments.
It was precisely for this reason that Qin Ruo took advantage of Gu He's psychology and pretended to give in every time, but was actually retreating to advance. In order to highlight Qin Qing's "unreasonableness" in insisting on being treated fairly, she gradually caused Gu He's feelings for Qin Qing to become estranged.
This trick works every time. Even now, Qin Ruo still often uses similar methods to achieve her goals.
But this time, Yun Ran clearly took the lead.
Unconsciously, the initiative was forced out of her hands and taken over by Yun Ran.
At this point, it was not that Qin Ruo was unwilling to show weakness, but she was forced to this point and she could no longer use the same method.
