“Didn’t you hear me?” Gu Qingcheng was infuriated. “I told you that catching a gigolo was a good thing, but I didn’t catch him!”

“I heard you. Calm down.” Qi Shaoze comforted Gu Qingcheng. “Alright, let’s not talk about this. I’ll take you to relax and release your anger.”

With that, he pulled Gu Qingcheng into his car.

At this moment, Huo Sicheng arrived at the garage.

After much thought, he finally decided to catch up with Gu Qingcheng.

He did not know how long he would have to wait for the next suitable opportunity.

Therefore, he could not miss today’s opportunity.

When he saw Gu Qingcheng, he said, “Qing…

However, before he could finish his sentence, he saw her with Qi Shaoze.

Especially when Qi Shaoze wrapped his arms around Gu Qingcheng’s slim waist, he felt endless anger erupting in his chest.

He took out his phone and dialed Gu Qingcheng’s number, but she ended the call and turned it off.

In her anger, she would not see him or listen to anything he said.

“Damn it!”

At that moment, Gu Qingcheng was sitting in the passenger seat, her mind filled with thoughts of Huo Sicheng. However, she didn’t notice that Huo

Sicheng had gone after her.

She was furious.

She was not only angry, but also resentful.

People say that grief has five stages: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.

She had never even experienced these five emotions from her enemy, but she had experienced them all from Huo Sicheng.

She was in a terrible mood. Her brain could no longer handle so many painful emotions and completely shut down.

When she got out of the car, she had already arrived at a beach.

The blue sea and blue sky indeed made her feel much better.

Qi Shaoze took out a bottle of wine from the car.

“The beautiful scenery is perfect for fine wine.” He poured two glasses and handed one to Gu Qingcheng. “Have a drink. You’ll feel much better.”

Gu Qingcheng stared at Qi Shaoze for a while. Instead of taking the wine, she took off her shoes and walked slowly on the beach.

Qi Shaoze didn’t say anything and just followed Gu Qingcheng silently.

“I don’t know how to handle this relationship.” After a long while, Gu

Qingcheng said quietly, “I don’t drink. I have to pick him up later…”

Seeing Gu Qingcheng’s complicated expression, Qi Shaoze couldn’t help but ask, “Pick who up?”

Gu Qingcheng shook her head gently. “It’s nothing.”

She wanted to pick up Huo Xuan. This was what she had promised him, and she would not go back on her word.

Since Huo Xuan’s identity was not made public, she had no way of telling Qi Shaoze.

Qi Shaoze didn’t question Gu Qingcheng further. After a while, he asked, “It seems like you’ve calmed down. Tell me about what happened in the private room. I can help you sort out what you said about not knowing how to deal with your relationship.”

Gu Qingcheng briefed Qi Shaoze on what had happened in the private room.

“Looks like Huo Sicheng is a good man who keeps himself clean.” He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a deep look flashed across his eyes. “But he’s still a little too much. He shouldn’t have specially called Ji Sisi over to accompany him.” As soon as Qi Shaoze said this, Gu Qingcheng’s emotions collapsed again.

“This is just my conjecture.” She looked at Qi Shaoze with certainty. “He might not have called Ji Sisi here to accompany him.”

“Don’t forget, that’s a men’s club,” Qi Shaoze reminded Gu Qingcheng. “All the women who go there are prostitutes. You’re an exception because I asked you to catch a prostitute. Ji Sisi isn’t a prostitute. Huo Sicheng was the one who asked her to go. Isn’t that just to keep him company?

“No.” Gu Qingcheng tried to explain, “No matter what, Ji Sisi is still the chief secretary of the Huo Corporation. She’s probably here to deliver some documents or something.”

“Do you believe it?” Qi Shaoze asked Gu Qingcheng. “Do you believe that Huo Sicheng has already brought his assistant, Chu Yu, to a club like this, and he still wants Ji Sisi to deliver the documents?”

Gu Qingcheng was speechless by Qi Shaoze’s question.

She definitely did not believe that Ji Sisi was here to deliver the documents. Instead, she was here to accompany Huo Sicheng.

However, Huo Sicheng’s discussion with Gu Tianhao and the others about the energy business was ruined by her trespassing.

However, this was just her guess. It was purely her own guess and might not be true.

Qi Shaoze noticed Gu Qingcheng’s conflicted expression.

“You don’t know how to handle this relationship now, do you?” He pointed out. “If you can’t get a divorce, continue living with him. Do whatever he hates. He can’t tolerate you forever. When he can’t take it anymore, he’ll naturally divorce you.”

“That’s a bad idea.” Frowning, Gu Qingcheng’s eyes were filled with thoughts. “I think we should renegotiate with Huo Sicheng.”

“We’re already at this stage, what are you still talking about?” Qi Shaoze was speechless. “He said that he had nothing to do with Ji Sisi and never touched her. Do you believe him? If I said that I slept with you and even had a child with you, would you believe me? Who wouldn’t say something like that?”

Ever since Huo Sicheng and Ji Sisi had been on the trending searches for public displays of affection, Gu Qingcheng had always felt conflicted about Huo Sicheng.

She believed Huo Sicheng’s words. This was her unique trust and love for him.

However, at the same time, she suspected that he was the one who planted the seed of distrust in her heart and made her believe that everything he said was a lie.

Qi Shaoze’s words were like a calming pill, calming her down.

“Yes, who doesn’t know how to talk?” She said faintly, “Only he and Ji Sisi know if Huo Sicheng touched Ji Sisi or not.”

“That’s right. You also said that Ji Sisi is Huo Sicheng’s chief secretary. The two of them have been together for so long.” Qi Shaoze’s eyes flashed as he tried to persuade Gu Qingcheng. “Even if you still have hope for Huo Sicheng, if someone else were to ask Ji Sisi, she would have already discussed it with Huo

Sicheng. Their answers would definitely be the same, so you don’t have to ask.” Gu Qingcheng was deep in thought and didn’t respond to Qi Shaoze.

Qi Shaoze couldn’t read Gu Qingcheng’s emotions. Placing the wine glass on the floor, he walked up to her and lifted her chin, forcing her to look at him.

“You’re my babe. I want you to be happy.” He looked sincere and serious. “I also know that you’re in a dilemma and don’t know what to do. Listen to me, or find a chance to get a divorce. If you can’t get a divorce, you can do whatever he hates. He’ll definitely hate you one day and take the initiative to divorce you.” Frowning, Gu Qingcheng slapped Qi Shaoze’s hand away.

“Do you not want your hand anymore?!” She glared at Qi Shaoze. “If you want to talk, just talk. Don’t touch me. We’re just bros. If there’s a next time, I’ll break your wrist too. I mean what I say.”

Qi Shaoze hurriedly spread his hands and begged for mercy. “I won’t do it again. I won’t do it again. Your Majesty, please spare my life.”

Gu Qingcheng rolled her eyes at Qi Shaoze. “At least you know your place.”

Qi Shaoze quickly asked Gu Qingcheng, “Did you listen to what I said?”

Gu Qingcheng sighed. “I did.”

“Tell me.” Qi Shaoze narrowed his eyes. “Firstly, it might take a long time to provoke Huo Sicheng into divorcing you. Secondly, you might as well get a divorce. You can use any scheme, and I can help you get a divorce as soon as possible.. Which one will you choose?”
