"Just because I appreciate your help doesn't mean I'll accept our relationship as husband and wife, so Chen Qin, don't have any illusions about me."
Those words were like an ice blade, chilling to the bones but hurting to the core of my heart.
Chen Qin just looked at this man who, although old, was still as handsome as he was back then. At this moment, she felt nothing but despair.
She still didn't give up, and pleaded with some hope, "I don't ask for your love, but can you please not be so cold to me for the rest of your life? Can we be friends like we are now and talk about everything?"
Si Guangxu met her sincere eyes, his expression remaining calm, as if since Yaqing's death, no one except Si Mochen could leave a trace in his heart.
But now, facing Chen Qin's helpless expression, Si Guangxu actually felt a little soft-hearted.
When Si Guangxu realized that he actually had hope for the people around the old man, he just found it ridiculous.
He quickly suppressed his inappropriate feelings and responded indifferently, "You should have been prepared before getting married. Apart from Yaqing, I can't have a deep conversation with any other woman!"
After saying that, Si Guangxu said no more, stood up and left the room.
And as the door closed, Chen Qin just sat on the sofa and cried silently.
yes!
Even though she knew that Si Guangxu would never fall in love with her, she still ran towards him like a moth to a flame.
Now that I have made all the preparations, how can I expect this man to pity me?
Everything that happened at the Si family manor had already been seen by a pair of enchanting eyes in the darkness.
At this moment, Xu Yue was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a glass of red wine in her hand. From her angle, she could clearly see Si Guangxu and Chen Qin sitting face to face.
Although I couldn't hear what the couple was talking about, I could tell from Chen Qin's sad eyes that she didn't get what she wanted from Si Guangxu.
What a poor woman!
Xu Yue saw clearly that Si Guangxu and Chen Qin were just a couple in name only. Their relationship was so cold that even after being married for decades, they still had to sleep in separate rooms.
One can imagine how uncomfortable Chen Qin felt staying alone in an empty room every night.
Xu Yue did not sympathize with Chen Qin. After all, this situation was normal for a wealthy family. Besides, Chen Qin did not suffer any loss. Although she did not get Si Guangxu's love, she got the trust of Mr. Si.
The biggest reward, of course, is a position of power.
Xu Yue's biggest wish in this life is to be the best of the best, so she has used all kinds of tricks in the business world to climb to her current status, and she will not allow anyone to destroy her.
As for Si Mochen...
This was the first prey that piqued her infinite interest. In addition to power and wealth, she also had to have people!
Thinking of this, Xu Yue raised his head and drank the red wine in the glass, then picked up the mobile phone placed next to him and dialed Gu Bai's number.
"I have a shocking secret, are you interested in knowing it?"
It was late at night and Gu Bai was taking a shower in the bathroom. He had just received a call from Xu Yue and heard what she said. His eyes, which had been washed by water, instantly became extremely dark.
"What secret?"
Xu Yue raised her eyebrows and smiled charmingly, "Si Guangxu also has an illegitimate son who is living outside, and you are familiar with that person, it is none other than Ouyang Yunxiao, the former owner of Jingwu Hall."
Gu Bai was about to wipe himself clean with a towel when he heard these words. He stopped all his movements in disbelief. "Are you sure?"
No wonder the Si family wanted to investigate Jingwu Hall. It turns out they had such a shameful fig leaf hidden.
Xu Yue said confidently, "Do you think the secret I learned from Chen Qin is false? Besides, as the head of the Si family, Chen Qin would never joke about such a thing. The reason she told me this is mainly because she wanted to use my influence to support Si Mochen and help him consolidate his position in the Si family."
"Of course Chen Qin has found the right person. Since I'm so eager to take Si Mochen down, I won't stand by and watch the man I love being abandoned by the Si family. So, Gu Bai, I want you to quickly find Ouyang Yunxiao and deal with him. It would be best if he never has the chance to return to the Si family in his lifetime."
Gu Bai wrapped himself in a bath towel and left the bathroom. He was indeed shocked to learn the secret, but when he heard Xu Yue wanted him to deal with Ouyang Yunxiao, he immediately spoke out to stop her.
"If you get rid of Ouyang Yunxiao, it will be even more impossible for you to control Si Mochen. It would be better to keep him and let him return to the Si family smoothly. Si Mochen will be eliminated, and you can help Si Mochen regain his status as the heir of the Si family. Perhaps Si Mochen will be more likely to be grateful to you."
Xu Yue listened to the words and considered them carefully, and found them to make sense.
"You're right, I didn't think it through." Xu Yue realized that she had made a big mistake. It seemed that ever since she fell in love with Si Mochen, her thoughts had always been deviated because of this man. If Gu Bai hadn't discovered the problem in time, everything she did would have ended up being empty talk.
"Also, since the Si family has been exposed to such a huge scandal, I think it's no longer necessary to use Xiyue Company to lure Si Mochen away. After all, the Si family is in chaos right now, and Si Mochen is worried about these things. There's no way he'll leave Jincheng."
Although Gu Bai has just entered the business world, he has learned a lot of experience from communicating with Xu Yue during this period. In addition, as a bystander in the business world, he has witnessed how his father and brother used thundering methods to win contracts. Gu Bai has also learned these ways to survive in the business world through what he has seen and heard.
Therefore, as long as you carefully consider the current situation in Jincheng, you will know what to do and what not to do.
Xu Yue was amazed at Gu Bai's transformation in such a short period of time.
She had always thought that Gu Bai was a talented businessman, and now it seemed that she was right about him.
I’m afraid Gu Bai will rise soon!
"You're right. Let's put this plan on hold for now. Let's wait and see how things develop before taking action. However, one thing is certain: the appearance of Ouyang Yunxiao is definitely our best bargaining chip to separate Xia Zhichu and Si Mochen."
"Gu Bai, I have a feeling that soon we will both get what we want and the person we want!"
Xu Yue couldn't hide her joy. She held her cell phone in one hand and stroked her sexy red lips with the other. Her mind was full of scenes of her and Si Mochen.
The man's sexy and strong body, charming chest muscles, and eight-pack abs are full of masculine charm. The hormonal scent emanating from his body makes her intoxicated and she just wants to love him well.
The more he thought about it, the more Xu Yue became emotional and even made a "hmm" sound into the microphone.
Gu Bai on the other end of the phone was extremely sensitive. He subconsciously frowned and ended the call with an excuse that he had something else to do.
As for Xu Yue, she returned to the sofa, caressing her delicate skin with her hands, an obsessed smile on her face.
Soon, the straps of her suspender pajamas fell off, revealing her voluptuous and well-proportioned figure.
She was like experiencing a love affair, her mind full of Si Mochen's image, and she couldn't help but moan, "Si Mochen, I want..."
