An Nuan left Xiao Nanchen's resting room and was about to go to the lobby to find Ye Jinghuai. Suddenly, someone grabbed her forcefully and dragged her to the back garden of the resort hotel.
An Nuan resisted several times but found herself unable to break free. She was about to scream when her lips were suddenly covered by someone's hand. She gritted her teeth and stared fiercely at the man in front of her, Gu Yan Sheng, this scumbag.
The attendance at Xia Qiqi's wedding was indeed not large. All four major families were present. It had become a rule in Qingcheng that whenever any of the four major families had something going on, they would definitely gather like this. It was also to give the media something to write about, although there would be no real news.
"So, you're already so fed up with me?!" Gu Yan Sheng glared at her fiercely, looking coldly into her angry eyes.
He covered half of her face, leaving only a pair of eyes filled with anger.
"It didn't take long, An Nuan. You change your heart so quickly... Ah!" Gu Yan Sheng suddenly withdrew his hand.
An Nuan bit him hard.
Gu Yan Sheng endured the pain, his face turning pale.
An Nuan didn't bother to say a word to Gu Yan Sheng. She turned around and tried to leave.
But suddenly, Gu Yan Sheng grabbed her again and pinned her against the wall, rendering her unable to move.
Usually, she was accompanied by Hu Feng. But today, with the small number of people attending Xia Qiqi's wedding, it seemed excessive to have Hu Feng constantly by her side. The upper class was a place where people were nosy, and she didn't want any sarcastic remarks to circulate, so she let Hu Feng wait for her outside the wedding venue.
As expected.
With a despicable man like Gu Yan Sheng, she couldn't relax her guard even for a minute.
She coldly asked, "Gu Yan Sheng, do you have something to say to me?"
"Nothing. I just can't stand seeing you so close with Ye Jinghuai!" Gu Yan Sheng no longer pretended in front of An Nuan.
Perhaps he realized it.
He couldn't deceive her anymore.
So he didn't want to go through the motions anymore.
"What? Are you jealous?" An Nuan raised an eyebrow.
It was a provocative expression.
"Jealous?!" Gu Yan Sheng laughed, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. He said, "An Nuan, you really think too highly of yourself! Did you really think I ever liked you?! Let me tell you the truth, the first time I saw you, I had no interest in your lifeless appearance. All these years, I've just been acting with you. I don't love you at all. The only reason I acted with you was for the sake of that so-called seniority contract, for the sake of matching backgrounds. That's it."
"Is that so?" An Nuan smiled faintly. "Gu Yan Sheng, you came to see me alone using such despicable means just to tell me that you don't love me, that everything you had for me was fake. Don't flatter yourself."
"Good to know."
"That's great. This way, we're even." An Nuan said calmly.
Gu Yan Sheng's eyes narrowed.
"Just right, I feel the same way. I don't love you either. Our relationship is merely based on a seniority agreement and social compatibility. After pretending for so many years, I can finally remove this disguise. I no longer have to feel guilty towards you once I find true love," An Nuan spoke calmly.
"Do you think I'll believe that?!" Gu Yan Sheng's expression turned extremely unpleasant. His self-esteem couldn't accept the fact that An Nuan didn't love him.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you. The fact is, I am now very happy with Ye Jinghuai, and it's plain to see," An Nuan didn't want to waste time with Gu Yan Sheng. "Now that everything is clear, please let me go, Mr. Gu."
"After finally catching you, do you think I'll easily let you go?"
"If you don't love me, why would Mr. Gu resort to such actions? It's quite suspicious," An Nuan raised doubts.
"Is possessing you related to loving or not loving you? Do you know what is most important to a man? Money and wealth? No, it's dignity!" Gu Yan Sheng emphasized each word. "I've lost so much dignity because of you. How can I just easily bear with it?"
"What exactly do you want?!" An Nuan's suppressed emotions finally burst out.
Every time she faced Gu Yan Sheng's repulsive face, she wished she could tear him to pieces.
"If you continue like this, I will really call someone!" An Nuan threatened.
"Go ahead, call someone. Tomorrow, there will be gossip news about An Nuan cheating on her ex-boyfriend, or An Nuan rekindling her old flame with her ex-boyfriend..."
"Gu Yan Sheng, you're quite clever!" An Nuan gritted her teeth.
Gu Yan Sheng was despicable, shameless, and repulsive, truly without any bottom line.
"Didn't I learn it from you?" Gu Yan Sheng stared at An Nuan. "Tell me, how can I reclaim my dignity from you?"
An Nuan coldly looked at Gu Yan Sheng.
"By making your body submit to me..." Gu Yan Sheng disgustingly said.
"Is that the only lowly method you have?"
"Of course not the only one, but this method is what you care about, isn't it?!"
"Lowly."
"To you, I'm not worthy of using more sophisticated methods!" Gu Yan Sheng coldly replied.
In the next moment, he leaned down, intending to kiss An Nuan.
An Nuan was truly prepared to make a desperate decision.
As long as Gu Yan Sheng tried to force her into anything.
She would scream loudly.
Leaving aside who would be more embarrassed in the end.
Just the thought of Gu Yan Sheng... she felt intense repulsion throughout her body.
She was about to scream.
"Try kissing her if you dare."
Suddenly, a familiar male voice sounded in their ears.
Gu Yan Sheng's body tensed.
His expression became visibly unpleasant.
He had accompanied Gu Yan Xuan to find Xiao Nanchen and unexpectedly saw An Nuan.
An Nuan and Ye Jinghuai were together the whole time today, and the two of them... were glaringly obvious.
So, in that moment, he didn't hesitate. Once the thought arose, he grabbed An Nuan and moved towards a secluded corner.
He was truly fed up with An Nuan's indifference towards him.
Today, he had spent more than half of his time watching her.
But she, didn't even spare him a single glance.
He started to doubt whether An Nuan had even noticed his existence.
Her neglect seemed genuinely not a pretense.
So An Nuan, the woman, found herself truly falling in love with another man. Gu Yan Sheng was seething with anger, his body trembling. Although at this moment he didn't lean in to kiss An Nuan, nor did he have any intention of letting her go.
"Wasn't the lesson from last time enough?" Ye Jinghuai's expression was icy.
Sometimes it was really hard to tell if he was getting angry or not. It was just a straightforward statement.
Gu Yan Sheng remained motionless.
"I'll count to three!" Ye Jinghuai's patience waned.
It all came down to these final three seconds.
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One..."
Before the words could even fade away, Ye Jinghuai swiftly closed in on them.
With a loud "bang," Gu Yan Sheng, caught off guard, was punched by Ye Jinghuai and sent sprawling to the ground.
An Nuan stared blankly at Ye Jinghuai.
She couldn't help but feel that this guy's strength surpassed that of an ordinary person!
