They all said that “love was dependent on fate and breaking up could show someone’s manners.” No matter how long you were together with someone, the things that he presented to you on the surface when you were dating was only a mere pretense. It was only when you broke up that you could truly see the other party’s morals!
This time when she interacted with him, Yun Jianyue could clearly see Su Xu’s morals, and she really was amazed with herself for being so blinded in the past and had actually managed to like him for such a long time.
Rather than being bothered by Su Xu and listening to him talk about the ridiculous three months, she was more willing to maintain the pretence of being a fake married couple with Gu Zhishen!
And she also had a tiny selfishness that she was thinking about. It was fine even if she offended Su Xu; she was more afraid of Gu Zhishen.
After all, Su Xu was only someone from the past who dumped her, and Gu Zhishen…held onto her weakness!
Su Xu watched on with his own eyes as Gu Zhishen kissed Yun Jianyue. His hands that were dropped down by his sides were clenched tightly into fists, and he was full of unhappiness and anger.
And the thing that hurt him the most was when he had kissed Yun Jianyue just now, she struggled and protested with all of her might. And now that Gu Zhishen was kissing her, not only did she not protest, she even reprociated.
This scene hurt Su Xu deeply.
Yun Jianyue was almost suffocating as he kissed her, and it was only then that Gu Zhishen let go of her. His eyes were full of scattered bright spots, and the smile on his face was apparent.
“Why?” Su Xu was unappeased and wondered, Could Yun Jianyue be the same as those women who were gold diggers? “You married him because he’s richer than me and his family background is better than mine?”
Yun Jianyue was hugged in Gu Zhishen’s arm. She took big breaths of air. Upon hearing what he said, she raised her eyebrows immediately. The words that Su Xu was saying now were getting more and more jarring to hear.
Gu Zhishen’s cold gaze shone toward him, and he tugged his thin lips up gently and was all mocking as he said, “You’re saying that her family background is normal and is unable to get into the Gu family? You’re saying that she’s marrying me because of my money?”
He couldn’t help but laugh coldly. He lowered his head to look at the smile spinning around in Yun Jianyue’s eyes. His deep and hoarse voice asked her, “Babe, couldn’t you have told him that you’re the Second Young Miss of the Yun family?”
Yun Jianyue blinked, and she felt that he didn’t have good intentions as he smiled.
“You’re the true Second Young Miss!” She hated people addressing her as Second Young Miss. It made her seem like a joke.
Gu Zhishen laughed. This young fella didn’t seem to catch the key point in his words, but it was fine, as he said, “I am Second Young Miss’s…husband!”
Yun Jianyue didn’t say anything.
President, your face dropped onto the floor again, you should quickly pick it up.
“The Second Young Miss of the Yun family?” Su Xu had a frown on his face. His expressions were all confused. He looked at Yun Jianyue’s red, supple, egg-shaped face, and a thought flashed through his mind. His pupils widened suddenly, and it was as if he was provoked. He said, “The Yun family of the Yun Corporation in Harbin?”
Jian Yue was the daughter of Yun Corporation’s president?
How could this be?
Yun Jianyue looked at his shocked expression. She was calm as she nodded her head and said, “My father is Yun Xiaotian and Yun Siwan is my Older Sister.”
Su Xu’s expressions were all over the place in an instant. The thoughts inside his mind were running around. If he’d known she was the daughter of Yun Corporation, he wouldn’t have broken up with her.
But they were together for three years, and she didn’t tell him about it at all, that her father was Yun Xiaotian!
“We were together with one another for so long. You actually didn’t tell me about it at all, that you’re the Young Miss of the Yun family, and you come from a rich family!” Su Xu clenched his teeth, and she didn’t know whether it was because he felt heart pain or because he was frustrated.
Yun Jianyue looked innocent as she said calmly, “You also never asked me this question!”
She couldn’t boast to Su Xu for no good reason and say, “Eh, my father’s the President of Yun Corporation, Yun Xiaotian!” out of the blue.
Dating was between two people, and she didn’t think whoever’s daughter she was had anything to do with her dating!
“I didn’t ask you, but didn’t you know how to say it?” Su Xu looked at her innocent expression. The anger in his heart was so great that he wanted to strangle her to death. “Don’t you know that if you told me this earlier, that you’re Yun Xiaotian’s daughter, I wouldn’t have…”
“Mr. Su!” He hadn’t finished speaking, but Gu Zhishen broke him off coldly. His sinister gaze wasn’t cold, but fiery, as he said, “Both I and Ah Jian come from matching family backgrounds, and you don’t even think of scaling up to our level!”
Ignoring Su Xu’s pathetic family background, just with his being alone, his father-in-law Yun Xiaotian would probably be unimpressed with him, and it was even more impossible for him to marry Yun Jianyue over to Su Xu.
Although it was a free society without having to come from similar family backgrounds, this was what people said only, and those who believed it were the naïve ones. People like them who came from wealthy backgrounds, the elders from these wealthy families were even more concerned with their pride, and they all valued family backgrounds very much.
Su Xu wasn’t someone from their league.
Su Xu was frozen. He was in a daze as he looked at Yun Jianyue. Was it he who didn’t match up to her? He was scaling up too high?
He always thought that she was a normal girl who looked pretty. She had a normal job and didn’t have anything special about her. His family owned a company and could be considered to be rich. He always thought it was Yun Jianyue who was scaling up to come to his level.
Yun Jianyue heard what he had to say, and she raised her eyebrows to look at his handsome features. There was dim color in the bottom of her gaze that brushed past quickly.
“I’ll have to invite Mr. Su to distance himself further away from my wife in the future, if not—You’ll have to bear with the consequences by yourself!” Although Gu Zhishen used the words “I’ll have to invite,” his tone was no doubt warning Su Xu.
After he was done speaking, he cupped Yun Jianyue in his arms as he turned around to head over to the elevators.
Su Xu wanted to chase after them, but his legs didn’t listen to him at all. Furthermore…what right did he have?
No matter whether it was his family background or his personal achievements, he was unable to compare himself to Gu Zhishen at all, so Yun Jianyue didn’t even want to spare him a single glance, and left together with Gu Zhishen just like that.
His hand…his hand was clenched into a fist. He looked at their back profiles, and his gaze was full of unhappiness!
Jianyue, isn’t it all because he was rich?
There will be a day where I’ll also be rich, richer than Gu Zhishen, richer than the Yun family, and when that time comes, you’ll definitely regret it.
You definitely will!
Gu Zhishen didn’t bring Yun Jianyue back to In the Clouds, but brought her directly to the parking lot. Xu Shi saw them heading out of the stairs and immediately opened the car doors.
He half-carried Yun Jianyue into the car, and before he stepped into the car, he ordered Xu Shi, “Don’t get in the car. Go somewhere far for now.”
“Yes, President Gu.” Xu Shi headed for the exit of the parking lot and went to buy cigarettes.
Yun Jianyue’s white teeth bit down on her lips, and she lowered her gaze and didn’t say anything.
Gu Zhishen sat by her side. In the dim lighting, he could see her disappointed egg-shaped face. He raised his eyebrows tightly, and when he remembered that she was upset for a person like Su Xu, his heart was extremely unhappy!
What kind of gaze was that? What was the difference between picking a man and rubbish?
“If you want to cry, just cry, but I’m only allowing you to do so this once!” He couldn’t accept his own wife weeping for another man on a frequent basis.
“Ah?” Yun Jianyue regained her senses, and she was confused as she looked over at him and didn’t understand what he was saying.
Why did she have to cry?
She was still being stubborn?
Women who pretended to be strong really weren’t cute!
He knitted his eyebrows tightly, and his gaze fell onto her face. He couldn’t help himself as he locked his gaze on her red lips.
Her lips were very soft and the color was pinkish, and it made others have a desire to kiss her.
The moment he remembered that she had been kicked by Su Xu, he got even more upset, and he immediately cupped her face and lowered his head to kiss the lips that made others want to commit crimes.
Yun Jianyue was frozen once again.
If he said that he was putting on a show for Su Xu to watch just now, then why was he kissing her right now?
“Oof…President Gu…”
“Ssh, don’t say anything!” Gu Zhishen exhaled heavily on her lips, and his voice was unclear between the gaps of her teeth as he said, “I’m sanitizing it for you!”
