Chapter 73: The Old Man from Back Then

om the other end of the phone—"Brother, are you satisfied with this gift of mine""Gu Chi!" Gu Xiao roared into the phone, his anger burning hot, "Why did you do this What are you trying to do!""It's n...Lin Xiaoru's fingers unconsciously clenched.

A few days ago, when she learned that Su Kexin had married Gu Chi, she was so furious that she almost didn't think carefully before making this plan.

And she was particularly confident in her plan. She bribed the servants of the Gu family, and once the banquet ended, she arranged for them to resign and leave. So she originally thought it was impossible for her to be exposed.

But she didn't expect that the Gu family was indeed a powerful clan. The rate at which they investigated these matters was much faster than she had imagined. That night, she was exposed.

Therefore, she had never thought about how to explain the origin of these photos.

And at this moment, hearing Gu Yichan's question made her even more flustered.

Indeed, whether it was two years ago or this time, the photos in Gu Yichen's hands were all sent by him.

Because, the situation back then, was set up by her. The pinhole cameras in the hotel were also placed by her.

But these, absolutely cannot let Gu Yichen know.

Thus, she forced herself to calm down as quickly as possible. A light dawned in her mind and she had an idea.

She feigned fear, "Ah Han, if I tell you how I got these photos, don't blame me, okay"

Gu Yichen's eyes narrowed slightly, "Tell me first, where did you get the photos"

Lin Xiaoru dodged his gaze, her voice dropping a few tones, "Actually... actually I secretly looked through your phone."

Gu Yichen was originally frowning and looking at Lin Xiaoru with a wary expression, but he didn't expect her to answer like this. He couldn't help but be stunned.

"Looked through my phone"

"Hmm." Lin Xiaoru seemed to muster a great deal of courage, her voice low. "Do you remember that day at the Japanese restaurant I always felt something was off about you that day, and I thought maybe you had another woman outside. I was so scared, so I looked through your phone. I saw your email app, and there was an anonymous email. I clicked it, and... I didn't expect to see such a thing. I was too shocked, and instinctively sent it to my own phone."

Gu Yichen furrowed his brows, trying hard to recall.

Indeed, in the few days he received the anonymous email, he had indeed dined with Lin Xiaoru. Because of Su Kexin's photo, he was preoccupied with thoughts all the time.

Could that be all there is to it

He lowered his head to look at Lin Xiaoru beside him. Her eyes were red, like a pitiful little rabbit. Suddenly, he couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for her.

"Alright. I understand." He patted her shoulder, "Don't give me that look, like I've wronged you."

Lin Xiaoru bit her lip and cautiously glanced at him, "Ah Han, don't you blame me"

What's wrong

Of course it's strange.

Especially when he recalled, the moment the photo was shown, Su Keqin looked at his own eyes, he was actually so angry that he wished to break off the engagement with Lin Xiaoru, this foolish woman!

Yet, looking at Lin Xiaoru and Su Kexin with their somewhat similar eyebrows and eyes, he felt a twinge of sympathy.

Indeed, since returning home, I have been paying too much attention to Su Kexin's affairs, and it is no wonder that Lin Xiaoru feels insecure.

At the end of the day, Lin Xiaoru did this because she loved herself too much.

Gu Yihan's eyes suddenly flickered.

If...

If Su Ke Xin could love herself as crazily as Lin Xiaoru, doing anything for herself, that would be so great...

In a blink of an eye, Gu Yichan still shook his head, "Forget it this time, but in the future, don't do these things without discussing with me, okay"

Hearing Gu Yichan didn't pursue the matter, Lin Xiaoru's face flashed with a hint of joy, and she hugged him tightly, "Of course not! Ah Han, you're really so good to me."

Looking at Gu Yichen before her, Lin Xiaoru's eyes flickered, and she suddenly straightened up, her eyes narrowed seductively, her voice soft and sweet, "Ah Han, since we returned to China, it seems like we haven't... you know..."

Gu Yichan suddenly seemed a little stunned.

The room was lit only by a bedside lamp, the light already somewhat dim. In the hazy glow, Lin Xiaoru's face involuntarily overlapped with the one in her memory.

At this time, Lin Xiaoru had already taken the initiative to get closer to him, her red lips pressed against his, her body rubbing against his slowly, "Ah Han... I really want..."

Just as Lin Xiaoru approached, the pungent scent of her perfume wafted into his nostrils.

In an instant, he was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, instantly sobering up.

"No." He suddenly spoke, pushing Lin Xiaoru away.

Lin Xiaoru was pushed stumbling, incredulously and hurt looking at Gu Yichan, "Ahan..."

Gu Yichen suddenly didn't know how to face Lin Xiaoru, he could only say, "I'm too tired today, how about another day"

Lin Xiaoru was more hurt, but she still couldn't say anything. She could only bite her lip and nod.

Gu Yichen was about to take a shower, but before entering the bathroom, he couldn't help himself and turned his head, whispering, "Xiaoru, your perfume is too pungent. I don't like it. Maybe you shouldn't wear perfume in the future."

He walked into the bathroom without looking back after speaking.

Lin Xiaoru, who was left behind, had a pale face, as if she had lost her soul.

She... was rejected by Gu Yichen again.

Since she returned home, she had initiated countless times, but Gu Yichen had never accepted any of them. Not only that, he wouldn't even make time to be with her. Most of the time, he was at the magazine office.

That magazine agency that has Su Kexin.

Today, he also said her perfume was overpowering

When they first got together, he had said that this was his favorite perfume, so she would carefully spray it on herself after showering, both day and night.

But now he was telling her that it was best she didn't wear perfume

These days, how many girls our age don't wear perfume

Besides someone as poor and backward as Su Keqin!

Su Ke Xin...

As soon as she thought of that name, Lin Xiaoru's face paled even further.

Is she overthinking again Gu Yichan...is he still unable to let go of Su Kexin!

Lin Xiaoru was so angry she was about to explode. She went crazy, grabbing the pillows and blankets from her bed and smashing them silently around the room.

Su Kexin!

You shameless, vile woman!

Even though she came from a humble background, what right does she have to steal my man!

It's your steps that have driven me to this point! Don't blame me for getting tough!

She angrily took out her phone, making sure Gu Yichan in the bathroom was already finished showering before dialing a number.

"Hello." Her voice was icy when she picked up the phone, "Find me that old geezer from back then. Tell him I need a favor. If he helps, I can find him several beautiful young girls. All free of charge."u, Grandpa. 。"Grandpa!" This cry came from the heart, and naturally sounded much nicer than usual. 。Grandpa Gu happily looked at the cute baby and smiled with satisfaction. 。Mr. Gu was hoping for this...
