Chapter 21 It wasn't him who seduced me, it was me who stole him away.
Guan Ju ignored Duan Ze's sarcastic remarks.
Seeing this, Duan became even more agitated, crossing his arms as if he didn't understand, "You, the young master at the height of your power, have no shortage of Omegas by your side. Even if you like Betas, why does it have to be Zhao Mingzhuo's boyfriend?"
"What kind of mind-altering drug did Wen Song give you?"
"I thought he seemed like a pretty well-behaved person, so why would he flirt with someone else when he already has a boyfriend?"
“You’re wrong,” Guan Ju said calmly, withdrawing his gaze.
Duan paused for a moment, then asked, "Where did I go wrong?"
Guan Ju raised an eyebrow. "It wasn't him who seduced me; it was me who was trying to steal him away."
Duan Ze: ""
So you're pretty awesome, huh?!
Should we give them an award?!
Duan was truly speechless.
Because her friend's attitude was too open and honest, showing no remorse whatsoever for tempting someone else's boyfriend to cheat.
"How dare you say that?" Duan Ze felt that Guan Ju was beyond redemption.
Guan Ju, however, did not take it to heart.
Zhao Mingzhuo dislikes Wen Song.
Duan then wagged his index finger. "You're wrong! On the contrary, Zhao Mingzhuo has already fallen for Wen Song!"
Guan Ju squinted at him, as if waiting for him to continue.
“When you jumped down just now, Zhao Mingzhuo knew Wen Song was inside, so he jumped down after you without saying a word.”
"You know what? Usually, this is because they like each other."
"If he didn't like it, would someone as proud as Zhao Mingzhuo have jumped in front of so many people? He looked so pathetic!"
Guan Ju added, "Wen Song doesn't like him."
Duan scoffed: "Do you even know what it means to repay someone with one's body?"
"When Wen Song arrived in Suicheng, he was isolated and helpless. It was Zhao Mingzhuo who extended a helping hand and rescued him from being harassed at the banquet. If it weren't for Zhao Mingzhuo's heavy responsibilities and love of playing, the two of them would have gotten together long ago."
Every word, every sentence, felt like a sharp blade piercing Guan Ju's heart.
Duan couldn't bear to see his good brother fall into this moral entanglement.
They are all people from within the industry.
The reputation of poaching someone's partner is not good.
I thought Guan Ju would back down, but to my surprise, he said calmly, "He can also repay me with his body."
Duan Ze: "........."
Damn it, Wen Song is hopeless!
No wonder Guan Ju contacted experts on pheromone cancer cells; she was planning to poach talent from that angle.
No wonder the other party has been investigating Zhao Mingzhuo recently; it's also to gather evidence to make Wen Song give up.
Every step the other party takes now is heading towards Wen Song.
"What about your brotherhood with Zhao Mingzhuo that you've maintained for so many years?"
Duan was at a loss for words.
He definitely favors Guan Ju.
But it's really embarrassing to do something so "immoral".
We all grew up in the same circle, and we see each other all the time, so it's bound to cause gossip.
Guan Ju said without changing his expression, "It's his own fault for not appreciating it."
Duan was speechless for a moment.
really.
Zhao Mingzhuo could never truly be with Wen Song. Even if feelings existed between them over the years, given Wen Song's circumstances, the person who would be happiest if he married a Beta would undoubtedly be the illegitimate son raised by Wen Song's father.
As far as they knew, that illegitimate child was also a tough nut to crack.
He thrived in the branch office of Zheng Rong.
Zhao Mingzhuo's "disguise" over the years was nothing more than a way to make the other party lower their guard and lower their guard, hoping to get leverage over his illegitimate child.
Ideally, the illegitimate child would be unable to sit still and take the initiative.
“He’s been contacting Sheng Qi recently,” Guan Sui said at this moment.
Duan was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What?"
Guan Ju said, "He wants a marriage alliance."
Duan was momentarily speechless and asked curiously, "When did this happen? How come I didn't hear anything about it?"
"Has Zheng Rong reached the point where he needs a marriage alliance?"
Guan Ju did not answer, remaining mysterious.
Duan blinked. "Wasn't that your doing?"
Guan Ju glanced at Duan Ze, a hint of amusement in her voice, "Guess."
Duan Ze quickly waved his hand, "I'm too lazy to guess. Just be happy. If the sky falls, Lao Fu and I will hold it up for you."
"At worst—"
"Whenever you sneak over the wall to meet Wen Song in secret, the two of us will stand guard at the door."
I thought I'd get scolded for being so talkative, but then I heard Guan Ju say something.
Thanks.
Duan Ze: "............."
Grass.
Could this damn Alpha really be planning a secret rendezvous?!
·
Wen Song followed Zhao Mingzhuo to the guest room to change clothes.
"Is there anything that's bothering you?" Zhao Mingzhuo carefully examined the Beta in front of him to see if he was injured anywhere.
Wen Song shook his head. "No."
"I just drank a few sips of water and it made my throat and nose feel a little choked up."
"He's mostly recovered now."
Zhao Mingzhuo immediately felt relieved, completely concealing the worry in his eyes.
"I'll go ask them to make you some ginger tea to warm you up."
Wen Song, worried about catching a cold, nodded, "Okay."
Before leaving, Zhao Mingzhuo seemed to remember something and stopped to ask, "By the way..."
Wen Songgang had just opened the wardrobe to pick out some clothes when he poked his head out, puzzled. "Huh? What's wrong?"
Zhao Mingzhuo thought for a while and then smiled.
"fine."
"I just wanted to ask if you know Guan Ju."
Wen Song's breath hitched.
The fingers gripping the wardrobe door curled up unconsciously.
They seemed to be starting to wonder if Zhao Mingzhuo had discovered something, and wanted to get some clues from him.
The next second, I heard the other person say again:
"After thinking about it, apart from the time you drove us back to Silver Lake Mansion, you two don't usually interact much, so you definitely don't know each other."
"He must have saved you out of kindness."
"I'll have to thank him properly next time."
Wen Song replied with a very soft "Mm".
After Zhao Mingzhuo left, he was about to close the door when suddenly a hand gripped the door frame.
I glanced up and looked through the crack in the door.
It turns out that it was Guan Ju, whom Zhao Mingzhuo thought had little interaction with him.
The other person had changed into more casual clothes, and the stray hairs on their forehead were slightly damp, not completely dried.
"Why is it you?" Wen Song asked.
Guan Ju noticed that Beta in the room was still wearing wet clothes and frowned. "I came to see how you are."
"Don't you have any clothes?"
"Why haven't you changed it yet?"
Wen Song said softly, "I was just about to change when you arrived."
Upon hearing this, Guan Ju slipped through the crack in the door into the room, then closed and locked the door behind him.
Upon hearing the voice, Wen Song said:
Guan Ju leaned against the door and gestured with his chin toward the wardrobe, saying to the Beta who had been hiding behind the wardrobe door since he came in, "You change."
Wen Song: ""
Alpha has once again set a new standard for shamelessness.
"How can I change if you're here?" he asked.
Guan Ju straightened up. "If you can't change it, I can help you."
Seeing that the Alpha was indeed about to move, Wen Song raised his hand to signal the other to stop.
"I'll change it myself."
"Just stand there and don't move."
Guan Ju took a step back, continued to lean against the doorway, turned her head away, and pretended not to peek.
Wen Song felt something was off.
How did an Alpha end up in the room so inexplicably?
It's all his fault for being careless.
They let people in too casually.
Anyone who didn't know better would think he was deliberately keeping the Alpha hanging on here.
The main problem is that Guan Ju is too assertive. Even if he doesn't resort to force or coercion, his attitude is very direct, obvious, and his offensive is extremely strong.
What's more, the other party even helped him find an expert for his grandmother.
