Chapter 42

    

id, "People usually give gifts like beautiful fruit baskets, but I'm giving you an apple. You wouldn't think I'm too stingy, would you"Zhao Yizhuo's head shook like a rattle as Ling Chen said, "You di...Gu Yihan shivered.

He truly didn't expect Gu Chi to react this way when he saw these photos.

He thought that, given Gu Chi's personality, he would definitely be furious and have nothing more to do with Su Ke Xin.

But he, seemingly unconcerned

Perhaps he never doubted Su Ke Xin's character at all

The thought flashed through his mind, Gu Yichen only felt a tightness in his chest.

Why.

Why would Gu Chi trust Su Kexin so much Shouldn't they just be a fleeting romance

You have to know, even himself, having once had such a deep relationship with Su Ke Xin, two years ago when he saw these photos, he almost without thinking, thought that Su Ke Xin was just a wanton woman.

Could it be that he doesn't trust her enough

As soon as this thought popped into his mind, Gu Yichan forcefully suppressed it, feeling troubled and agitated.

No.

Since we have the photos, what's left to misunderstand

It's probably because Gu Chi didn't really care about Su Ke Xin in the first place, so he didn't care what kind of person she was.

"Seems like you're quite interested in my woman," Gu Chi suddenly spoke, interrupting Gu Yihan's thoughts.

Gu Yihan's body stiffened.

Looking up, at the steady and calm Gu Chi in front of him, Gu Yichen suddenly felt that his behavior of bringing a photo to find him today was simply like a clown.

Not only that, the Gu Zhi in front of him, though sitting in a wheelchair, exudes an innate aura and elegance that draws your attention completely.

Gu Yihan suddenly remembered his father casually mentioning this uncle of his several times. His usually high-and-mighty father had said that if Gu Chi wasn't disabled, he wouldn't even stand a chance against him.

Gu Yichen suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

He once thought of himself as a favored son of heaven, but at this moment he realized that compared to Gu Chi, he was completely unworthy.

Although he didn't understand why he felt the need to compare himself to Gu Chi, this thought in his mind suddenly made him feel inexplicably irritable.

"Out of the blue, he twitched his lips and said, 'I'm just being more concerned. After all...you might not know this, little uncle, but back when she was in school, she got along with me better.'"

Gu Yichan intentionally spoke lightly, as if deliberately trying to provoke Gu Chi.

I have to say, his words worked this time.

Gu Chi clenched his hand on the wheelchair armrest, then quickly sneered, "Is that so"

The simple two words were like being pierced by ice, the anger in his tone chilling people to the bone.

Gu Yichen only then realized he had overstepped, his face paling, and his tone softening slightly. "Little uncle, don't take it to heart, she's just a woman. I'm only asking these things because I'm worried that Auntie will be upset if she finds out."

About Gu Chi's newlywed wife, she is also quite mysterious.

It is said that Grandpa originally wanted to find a well-connected wife for Gu Chi. Gu Yichan's father, Gu Xiao, was even worried that such a marriage would bring Gu Chi some kind of power struggle. However, unexpectedly, Gu Chi suddenly announced that he was already married, and his wife was an ordinary girl with a clean background.

It's been a while since he returned home, but Gu Yichan hasn't met his legendary little sister-in-law yet.

Gu Chi glanced at Gu Yihan, neither confirming nor denying.

Gu Yichan realized he had probably said too much, his face flushing with embarrassment. He finally answered Gu Chi's earlier question, "This photo was sent to me in an anonymous email."

"Anonymous" Gu Chi repeated, his tone unreadable.

Gu Yichen nodded, but there was still some unwillingness in his heart. He couldn't help but say, "Uncle, don't blame me for speaking too much. Su Keqin is really a woman of loose morals and has a bad reputation at the company. So you should—"

"Keep it down," Gu Yichen's words were cut off before he could finish, by Gu Chi's voice, which now carried a hint of displeasure. "Aren't you being a bit too controlling"

Gu Yihan only then realized he had spoken out of turn, so he lowered his eyes and said, "I'm sorry, little uncle."

"Alright, Yan, if there's nothing else, I'll head back first." Gu Chi smoothed his collar and said faintly, "My wife is waiting for me at home."

Saying that, he didn't look at Yihan again and walked straight out of the cafe.

Gu Zhi returned to the car and sat down. Yang Zuo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, felt that the temperature in the car today was several degrees lower than usual.

"Yang Zuo." Gu Chi suddenly spoke, "How is the matter I asked you to investigate last time coming along" to the window, narrowed his eyes, and stared out at the sky, lost in thought."Where is she" Gu Wang turned his body, asking anxiously."I don't know, I just called her and she didn't answer."The cloud...
