On the way back, Yan Xiaojun kept looking out the car window without saying a word.
Thinking of the resentment she had received from Lin Yuer just now, she couldn't help herself. Especially, she also saw... saw how close Gu Wangchuan was to her!!
She couldn't deceive herself even if she wanted to.
She began to become frightened and unsure. Does Gu Wangchuan really love her? Why does she always have the illusion that she will lose it at any time? Is it because she can only live as a "mistress" now?
Gu Wangchuan turned his head to look at her, frowned, and said softly, "Are you still angry?"
Hearing his question, Yan Xiaojun turned back, her eyes turned red, and she bit her lip unwillingly, "You are protecting her." Her voice was full of accusations.
"Where is the protection?" His answer was a bit careless.
The one who really protects her is not him.
Thinking of what Xi Cen said in the restaurant, Gu Wangchuan's chest felt tight.
"Where is it?" Yan Xiaojun was so angry that she cried, "Wangchuan, the way you look at her is different now, I can see it clearly!" She asked with a trembling voice, "Wangchuan, answer me, do you like it?
Isn’t she?”
Gu Wangchuan frowned, "If I like her, why should I divorce her? Just follow grandpa's wishes and go back to live with her! Are you still questioning me now?"
Yan Xiaojun was stunned. Seeing that he was angry, she wiped away her tears and hurriedly explained, "Wangchuan, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I just... I just saw her slap you in the face and I couldn't get angry, so that's why I did it"
You’re talking nonsense! Don’t be angry, okay?”
Gu Wangchuan glanced at her and said in a somewhat indifferent voice, "Didn't you hit her too?"
Moreover, the blow was so severe that he noticed that her cheeks were swollen.
Yan Xiaojun was stagnant, unable to refute, and lowered his head depressedly, "I felt uncomfortable when I saw you two together, so I acted impulsively..." She looked at him pitifully, "Not just me, even
The baby will be unhappy."
Gu Wangchuan said nothing and continued to drive. What flashed before his eyes was Lin Yue'er's look as she stared at him, as if her heart was broken, and said softly, "I know..."
Damn it, what does she know?!
"Wangchuan, do you feel that the relationship between your brother and Lin Yue'er is very abnormal?" Yan Xiaojun observed his expression and said cautiously, "Isn't it strange that they are often together? How should I put it, Lin Yue'er
You are also his sister-in-law in name only!"
Gu Wangchuan's heart tightened and his face darkened, but he didn't answer.
"Actually, I'm not talking about your brother... I'm just afraid that Lin Yue'er will hold a grudge against you, so..."
"Xiaojun." Gu Wangchuan suddenly spoke up while stopping at a red light, "I don't want to hear what you said about Xi Cen. Even if it's just a guess, I don't like it either."
Yan Xiaojun pouted, "Why are you so harsh? I'm not wrong..."
He turned his head, frowned, and said in a stern tone, "Xicen is my younger brother, and I don't like others talking about his right and wrong!"
"Okay, okay, your brother is the best, better than me and the baby, is that okay?" She turned sideways angrily, thinking that Gu Wangchuan would come to comfort her, but just as the red light turned green, he started directly
Che did not say a single word of comfort.
Yan Xiaojun pursed her lips reluctantly and stirred the corners of her clothes with her hands as if venting her anger.
One Lin Yuer and one Grandpa Gu were enough for her. If Gu Xicen was added to the mix, wouldn't she have to face the entire Gu family? Even if Gu Wangchuan loved her again, she didn't have the confidence that he would
She abandoned her grandfather and brother for her. Therefore, she had to find a way to turn the situation around.
"Wangchuan," she whispered faintly, "How long will we continue to live like this?" She turned back and stared at him, "In a few months, our baby will be born, and I don't want to wait until then.
I don’t even dare to fill in your name in the father’s column! It’s a bit painful and I can bear it alone. I don’t want my baby to bear it with me. That would be unfair to him.”
Gu Wangchuan turned his head and reached out to hold her cold hands, "Xiaojun, I said I would give you a legitimate identity, and I will do what I say."
"Wangchuan, of course I believe what you say. However, you know better than anyone that Grandpa Gu is not having an easy time!" Yan Xiaojun tried his best to persuade him, "Wangchuan, we need to let him see that we really love each other.
Each other, maybe, he will be moved by us?"
Gu Wangchuan raised the corners of his lips coldly, "He won't."
He understands grandpa so well, just like grandpa understands himself.
The so-called "true love" did not exist for him at all. Back then, his father ran away for love, and his grandfather did not even say a word. He decisively published a newspaper to sever the relationship between father and son and kicked his father out of the ranks of the Gu family's heirs. This incident caused quite a stir at the time.
caused a sensation, and he was under tremendous pressure because of his father's scandal!
"Then... let's go and beg him!" Yan Xiaojun made up her mind. She could no longer be the woman behind Gu Wangchuan. If she wanted to become a regular person, she had to remind them of her existence from time to time!
"Xiaojun, you don't understand grandpa." He said softly, "Do you think grandpa really likes Lin Yuer?" He sneered and shook his head, "What grandpa only likes is her strength in the field of cosmetics research, and to put it bluntly,
Yes, he wants a professional talent that he can use for life with just a small salary! Grandpa is an old fox, and he calculates everything accurately, including his own family members!"
Yan Xiaojun immediately said, "I can do it too! It's just that Grandpa Gu didn't have enough time to get to know me. Wangchuan, believe me, as long as I return to the company, I will work hard. If Lin Yuer can do it, I can
Same goes!”
Gu Wangchuan glanced at it and was silent for a moment before slowly speaking, "We all know what's going on with the ak7. I think grandpa has already sent someone to investigate."
Yan Xiaojun hesitated, his face turned a little pale, and he muttered, "Wangchuan... you still don't believe it... I said I didn't..."
"Whether you did or not is a thing of the past." He turned his gaze forward and said casually, "No matter how much I hate Lin Yuer, I have to admit that she is indeed a talent, and so far, she is the best person in the company.
No one can surpass her."
One sentence directly negated Yan Xiaojun's self-confidence.
She lowered her eyes hurtfully and said in a trembling voice, "Is she the only one in your eyes? Why am I working so hard? It's all meaningless?"
Looking back at her, Gu Wangchuan smiled reassuringly, "Xiaojun, you have your advantages, why bother staring at her so persistently?"
Yan Xiaojun lowered his head. She had advantages, but she was not as good as Lin Yuer...
