You Claimed You Didn’t Love Me, So Why Cry Now That I’m Engaged? Chapter 80

Chapter 80: His Wedding

“Do you want to leave Xie Miaohan?” Xiang Wanxing said with a faint smile. “This bottle of medicine can help you leave.”

Gu Huaiye examined the item in his hand and asked in confusion, “What exactly is this medicine?”

Xiang Wanxing looked around to make sure no one was there, then leaned into Gu Huaiye’s ear.

“Medicine that can make him dumb.” Xiang Wanxing said, “This medicine is extremely potent and very damaging to the brain. Just finish this bottle, and he’ll be no different from a fool.”

After hearing this, Gu Huaiye hurriedly threw the medicine back into Xiang Wanxing’s hand.

“What grudge or grievance do you have against him?” Gu Huaiye trembled with anger. “How could you use such a thing to hurt Xie Miaohan?”

Xiang Wanxing laughed and shrugged.

“Haven’t I not done anything yet?”

“Instigating others to do it makes you even more insidious.”

Xiang Wanxing sighed. “You guys are really strange. You clearly care about each other, so why must things be so tense?”

Gu Huaiye was stunned.

“What do these two things have to do with each other? We’re talking about your malicious actions.”

“I’m helping you fulfill your wish; how did it become malicious?” Xiang Wanxing said, “Whether he turns into a fool or not has no impact on me. If he gets stronger, I can continue to cooperate with him. If he accidentally becomes a fool, I can groom someone new.”

But it wasn’t entirely without benefits.

At least that shorty wouldn’t keep rambling about Gu Huaiye and Xie Miaohan, giving him a headache.

“I’m warning you, if something really happens to him, I absolutely won’t let you off.” Gu Huaiye warned with a gloomy expression.

Xiang Wanxing raised an eyebrow. “What? You’ve stayed with Xie Miaohan for so long, do you really think you’re from District B?”

“I can’t do anything to you.” Gu Huaiye gritted his teeth, pronouncing each word clearly. “But I have a good friend who can do something to you.”

Xiang Wanxing’s expression changed slightly.

Then he smiled. “Forget it, I’d better not interfere in your affairs.”

He put the medicine bottle into his pocket, his face returning to a languid expression.

“Actually, these are just some sleeping pills. Little Shorty rewarded me with something, so I came to fulfill my promise to him and help you leave District B. If you’re unwilling to drug him, then pretend I never suggested it.”

Confirming Xiang Wanxing was telling the truth, Gu Huaiye finally lowered his guard.

“If it’s just simply fleeing District B, he won’t let me go easily. I’ve thought a lot during this time; I need to make a clean break with him.”

Xiang Wanxing immediately became curious.

“What kind of clean break?”

Gu Huaiye glanced at Xiang Wanxing. “Don’t be so gossipy; it has nothing to do with you.”

Xiang Wanxing: “…”

Worthy of being a pair of good brothers.

Both so deserving of a beating.

Finally, the wedding day arrived.

To prepare for the wedding, Xie Miaohan hadn’t slept for several days straight, constantly traveling between District A and District B, arranging the wedding alone.

What Gu Huaiye hadn’t given him, he could achieve himself. The rings were engraved with their names, and the wedding was chosen at the place where Gu Huaiye’s parents got married.

He just wanted to fight for and obtain the happiness that should have belonged to him.

Xie Miaohan had someone send the suit to Gu Huaiye’s room.

Since the argument that day, he hadn’t stepped into Gu Huaiye’s room again.

He didn’t want to hear hurtful words from Gu Huaiye anymore; every time he opened his mouth, it was only to say he wanted to leave.

It didn’t matter. Once they were married, everything would be fine.

He and Gu Huaiye would be a done deal. Everyone in the country would know his wife was Gu Huaiye.

If Chen Xialin insisted on using pheromones to seduce Gu Huaiye like in the past life, that would be a crime.

After the marriage, he wouldn’t let Gu Huaiye go back to District A anymore; he wanted him to stay here with him forever.

Gu Huaiye always said ten years of marriage was torture.

He didn’t believe it wouldn’t change this time.

As long as he became stronger and better, Gu Huaiye would like him.

Xie Miaohan patted his cheeks in front of the mirror, then forced a smile.

But the person in the mirror smiled very hideously.

Having not slept much for several days, he had dark circles under his eyes and a haggard face.

In short, he was far from good-looking.

Xie Miaohan panicked a little, worried that being so ugly would make the wedding imperfect.

I should have arranged for a makeup artist.

Xie Miaohan picked up his phone, preparing to look up a makeup artist’s number online.

Just then, someone knocked on his door.

“Commander Xie, do you want to come over for a moment?”

Xie Miaohan looked at the door. It was the servant he had arranged to send the suit to Gu Huaiye’s room an hour ago.

“What’s wrong?” Xie Miaohan asked. “Is he still being difficult?”

The servant didn’t know what to say, just kept urging Xie Miaohan to go to Gu Huaiye’s room.

Xie Miaohan felt uneasy. After nodding slightly, he went to Gu Huaiye’s room.

“Huaiye.” Xie Miaohan opened the door, a gentle smile on his face. “Are you unsatisfied with this suit?”

Gu Huaiye was standing by the window, looking at the wisteria flowers downstairs.

This scene suddenly overlapped with the past life, making Xie Miaohan’s heart tremble. He hurried over and hugged Gu Huaiye.

“If you don’t like this suit, I’ll have someone change it, change it until you’re satisfied.”

Gu Huaiye, however, brought up another topic.

“Why are you so obsessed with wisteria flowers?” Gu Huaiye pointed at the window. “You planted all of these yourself, right?”

“Because these are the pheromones you personally blended for me.”

Looking at the patch of purple downstairs, Xie Miaohan’s expression couldn’t help but soften.

“Do you know its flower language is actually very beautiful? It is…”

Gu Huaiye interrupted Xie Miaohan. “I didn’t blend them for you personally.”

He broke free from Xie Miaohan’s arm around his waist, turned around, and looked Xie Miaohan in the eye.

“I never took responsibility for you; you should know all that. To get you, I chose to marry you. To stop suffering from the susceptibility period, I took you for dangerous surgery. Even your pheromones were just a scent I chose on a whim. Actually, I don’t like this smell; you should have realized that long ago.”

Watching Xie Miaohan’s face turn paler and paler, Gu Huaiye hardened his heart and chose to ignore it.

“I did like you, but it was just possessiveness at work; it didn’t reach the level of love. Do you still want to continue entangling with someone like me?”

A layer of gloom covered Xie Miaohan’s eyes. He clenched his fists, nails digging into his palms.

“I also said, I don’t regret my choice, whether in the past life or this one.”

“But I can’t.” Gu Huaiye raised his hand to stroke the side of Xie Miaohan’s face, speaking softly, “I’m tired. I really don’t want to continue.”

He didn’t want to keep hurting each other with Xie Miaohan.

He really wanted to go back to District A and continue developing his career, but Xie Miaohan wouldn’t let him leave.

The susceptibility period was also a reality they could never escape; someone would always be forced to compromise.

“Let’s get married. I will prove I am right.” Xie Miaohan emphasized unwillingly.

Gu Huaiye shook his head. “Forget it. You forced me.”

He pushed Xie Miaohan away and took out a Swiss Army knife from his pocket, stolen from a soldier’s bag.

He pressed the sharp blade against his own neck.

Xie Miaohan felt like he had fallen into an ice cave. He said tremblingly, “You’re threatening me with death? Do you know, no matter where you go, I can…”

“You mean rebirth, right?” Gu Huaiye curled his lips, his smile somewhat cruel. “To be honest, I look forward to that too. If there really is another rebirth, I won’t choose to step into that school. I will go abroad, escape to a place you can never find.”

“And you at that time… poor as dirt, you wouldn’t have the ability to follow me, right?”

“Miaomiao.”

Xie Miaohan laughed too, tears floating in his eyes.

“You haven’t called me that in a long time. No matter how I coaxed or begged, you wouldn’t call me Miaomiao. Now you finally called it, but I can’t feel happy at all. It hurts so much I want to die.”

Gu Huaiye didn’t speak, staring at him tightly.

“I understand.” Xie Miaohan suddenly lowered his head. “I will send you back to District A.”

“No marriage.” Gu Huaiye emphasized.

Xie Miaohan bit his lip until it broke, then nodded.

“Mhm, no marriage.”

Gu Huaiye finally put down the Swiss Army knife.

He won the gamble.
