You Claimed You Didn’t Love Me, So Why Cry Now That I’m Engaged? Chapter 190

Chapter 190: Break Their Legs

In the past, Gu Huaiye always felt that Chen Zirui was carefree and careless, likely finding it hard to notice details.

But now he realized that Chen Zirui wasn’t actually easy to fool; perhaps he hid many things in his heart.

Afraid he might let something slip, Gu Huaiye looked away and continued walking forward.

“Don’t let your imagination run wild. Didn’t the police say the murderer has already fled to other districts? Since fingerprints were found, it proves it couldn’t be Xiang Wanxing.”

“I…” Chen Zirui pressed his lips together, then continued, “Actually, on the night your wedding ended, Xiang Wanxing didn’t come back until late at night, and the knuckles on his right hand were injured. I asked how he got hurt, and he said he went boxing. What kind of boxing practice happens late at night?”

Gu Huaiye was silent for a while, then said directly, “So you suspect him?”

Chen Zirui looked like he wanted to say something but stopped. Finally, his eyes reddened.

“I’m very worried it was him. If it really is him… I have to prepare early to flee District B with him. I heard the more remote and poor the place, the easier it is to hide.”

After listening, Gu Huaiye couldn’t help laughing.

“You love money so much, yet you’re willing to suffer hardship with him?”

Chen Zirui raised his eyes, looking wronged. “Brother Gu, you also think I agreed to his proposal because I was eyeing the Xiang family fortune?”

“Of course not.” Gu Huaiye’s eyes curved in a smile. “I know you love him.”

Chen Zirui’s expression changed, as if his inner thoughts were hit. He shouted back in response.

“How could I fall in love with him so quickly? You’re talking nonsense.”

Gu Huaiye didn’t rush to refute him but squeezed his shoulder comfortingly.

“Don’t worry, it won’t be Xiang Wanxing, and it can’t be Xiang Wanxing.” Gu Huaiye paused, emphasizing his tone, “Also, don’t say such things indiscriminately in the future. Let it end with me.”

“Of course I know. I only trust you, which is why I told you this.”

Gu Huaiye pressed his lips together, looking earnestly into Chen Zirui’s eyes.

“Zirui, before when the three of us hung out, I always played the role of the big brother, so you and Xialin trusted me unconditionally.”

Gu Huaiye’s voice became gentle. “The situation is different now. You are no longer isolated and helpless in the Chen family; you have Xiang Wanxing. So you can try to trust him more. He is the one who will be with you until the end, so this trust should ideally exceed your trust in me. Do you understand what I mean?”

Hearing this, Chen Zirui nodded.

“I understand.”

“Let’s go.” Gu Huaiye put his arm around Chen Zirui’s shoulder. “Go pick a gift for your husband.”

Through Gu Huaiye’s words, Chen Zirui also figured things out and stopped agonizing over what happened that night.

Anyway, no matter where Xiang Wanxing went, he would follow him for life.

At the end of the year, the Gu Group officially moved to District B, and everything got on track.

Both Gu Huaiye and Xie Miaohan started getting busy. The two went to the company together and held hands going home after a busy day of work.

Father Gu really couldn’t bear to leave his friends in District A, so he stayed in District A most of the time, occasionally coming to District B for long stays.

Soon, it was time for Xiang Wanxing and Chen Zirui’s wedding.

Only the day before the wedding did Gu Huaiye realize how strong Xiang Wanxing’s desire for revenge was.

He actually copied them and organized a bachelor party, secretly dragging Xie Miaohan along and booking a private room in a nightclub.

This time it was Gu Huaiye and Chen Zirui’s turn to storm to the nightclub aggressively, vowing on the way to teach these two a good lesson.

“Brother Gu, if they dare to order male models, we’ll break their legs together.” Chen Zirui rolled up his sleeves, gritting his teeth. “If you can’t bear to do it, we’ll switch. You hit Xiang Wanxing, and I’ll hit Xie Miaohan.”

Gu Huaiye: “……”

He was indeed a bit unhappy, but not to such an exaggerated extent.

Seeing Gu Huaiye silent, Chen Zirui thought he was backing down and quickly grabbed Gu Huaiye’s arm.

“Brother Gu, you can’t indulge them without limits. There will be a relationship crisis in the future.”

Gu Huaiye smiled helplessly. “Understood. If they order male models, we’ll beat them up together.”

Of course, he didn’t believe Xie Miaohan had the guts.

The two walked to the door of the private room. Before they could open it, they heard Xiang Wanxing’s voice from inside.

“Not bad. This money is yours. Alright, next one.”

Gu Huaiye and Chen Zirui exchanged a glance, their faces looking worse than the other.

Together, they kicked the door open violently.

“Xie Miaohan!”

“Xiang Wanxing!”

Kicked hard by them, the door shook pitifully, making a creaking sound.

Inside, it was completely different from what they had imagined.

An electronic display screen stood in the middle, playing market data.

Several employees in suits stood in front of the whiteboard, looking at them with astonishment.

Xiang Wanxing leaned against the display screen, looking at them lazily.

“Shouting so loud—here to catch adulterers?”

Gu Huaiye and Chen Zirui were stunned for a long time, completely unable to process what was happening.

Xie Miaohan couldn’t watch anymore. He walked forward proactively to wrap his arm around Gu Huaiye’s waist, then looked at Xiang Wanxing with disapproval.

“I told you not to prank them.”

Xiang Wanxing: ???

“You sure wash your hands clean of it, dumping the blame entirely on me, right?”

He didn’t threaten Xie Miaohan to cooperate in acting out this scene; clearly, Xie Miaohan himself was curious whether Gu Huaiye would be nervous about this.

“Isn’t that the truth?” Xie Miaohan retorted.

Xiang Wanxing: “……” First time discovering this guy really had thick skin.

“Xiang Wanxing! You actually pranked me!”

Chen Zirui finally reacted, strode forward, and grabbed Xiang Wanxing’s ear.

“What is wrong with you? Why come to a nightclub?”

Xiang Wanxing blinked, feigning innocence. “Isn’t it obvious? Having a meeting.”

“Like hell I believe you!”

“I am an Omega; you can’t commit domestic violence against me.”

Since getting together, Xiang Wanxing started actively mentioning being an Omega, very good at finding advantages for himself.

But once in bed, he would turn his face and deny it, refusing to admit he was an Omega even to death.

In other words, he was Schrödinger’s Omega, angering Chen Zirui half to death every time.

“Hiss—” Xiang Wanxing suddenly sucked in a breath.

Chen Zirui froze and involuntarily let go.

“Does it really hurt?”

After escaping the demonic claws, Xiang Wanxing quickly retreated, hiding behind his subordinates.

“You misunderstood on your own; it’s not my business. I never said I was coming to the nightclub to drink. I just like having meetings here.”

Realizing Xiang Wanxing was faking the pain, Chen Zirui was even more furious.

“Xiang Wanxing, you are dead tonight!”

Standing at the door, Gu Huaiye also didn’t let Xie Miaohan off, pulling his wrist to walk outside.

Xie Miaohan finally realized the severity of the matter and quickly said, “Brother, Xiang Wanxing forced me to come.”

Gu Huaiye sneered. “Whenever you have a guilty conscience, you call me Brother. I’ve almost figured out the pattern.”

“Then… Huaiye?”

“Shut up!”
