Chapter Summary
It was obvious that the man was taking advantage of someone's misfortune. The man's dark eyes locked onto her condescendingly, not allowing her to retreat. So what about me?" Gu Weimian looked at him confusedly: "What?" Huo Yan lowered his face and said, "I...
Her voice was trembling. It was obvious that the man was taking advantage of someone's misfortune.
At that time, she was not even very clear about her consciousness.
By the time she realized what was happening, it was too late.
Huo Yan chuckled softly and moved closer to Gu Weiman.
The man's dark eyes locked onto her condescendingly, not allowing her to retreat. He whispered in the girl's ear like a lover, "Did she tell you that in the letter? Did she also say that she was very happy that time, that she also felt pleasure? This stubborn young lady, even if we died together in bed at that time, she still had the ability to deceive herself, as if nothing had happened..."
"Shut up!" Gu Weimian interrupted the man in a sharp voice. "She never loved you in the first place, so how could she feel happy? All she felt was humiliation and pain! That's the deepest scar in her life. It was you who did it!"
As she spoke, she desperately pushed the man away with her hands.
Later on, she could no longer control her emotions and slapped the man madly.
The man remained silent and did not resist.
Gu Weimian used all her strength to strike the man again and again, leaving red marks on his body.
Until she saw tears in the man's eyes.
Gu Weimian was stunned, as if she was burned by something, and suddenly let go of her hand. With nowhere to retreat, her body pressed against the door panel.
A second of silence.
Gu Weimian clenched his fists and whispered, "You... this is a matter between you and her. Maybe what I know is biased, but it's none of my business."
She lowered her eyes, not even daring to look into the man's eyes.
"There's no point in being angry. You should say these things to Gu Yuzhu, right?"
The room fell completely silent.
Gu Weimian could only hear the loud “thump, thump” sound of his heartbeat in his chest.
The air pressure becomes very high.
The man looked at her silently, "Are you sure you should say these words to Gu Yuzhu?"
Gu Weimian raised her eyes and glanced at the man in panic.
His vocal cords tensed. "What else?"
Huo Yan scoffed, "She doesn't know as much as you do."
Gu Weimian felt her heart tighten in her chest, her eyes widened, "I..."
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and after a long time, Gu Weimian whispered,
"She's already dead, can't we just let her return to dust? What's the point of dwelling on these grudges? You're getting married to Miss Gu soon, so why bother?"
In her sight, the man's phoenix eyes were deep, as if something in his eyes wanted to break free from the cage and break out.
The muscles on his face were tense, but he laughed out loud.
"Yes, that's right, she's dead. It's all over now. There's nothing to worry about. Everything can be forgotten. So what about me?"
Gu Weimian looked at him confusedly: "What?"
Huo Yan lowered his face and said, "I... am still in this world, in this mortal world, struggling to survive, without a single piece of driftwood."
Gu Weimian's voice was weak: "How can you struggle to survive? You are the helmsman of the Huo Group, the uncrowned king of this world. If you stomp your feet, the whole world will shake. Why would you need driftwood?"
"Heh..." A cold chuckle drifted out of the man's voice. "Having money and power doesn't mean you can buy everything. What I want is something that none of these can buy."
