At this moment, outside the Emperor Hotel, inside a certain black Bentley, Mu Yuchen and Zhou Zimo were sitting side by side in the backseat. Zhou Zimo had a laptop on his lap and was watching his screen in amusement. He caught every one of their expressions, from Gu Lingsha to Doris, while Mu Yuchen sat with an apathetic expression beside him. Mu Yuchen took an unenthusiastic look at the screen, and in the next instant lowered his gaze and casually fixed his sleeves.

“Doris is quite bold. She didn’t leave a man like Gu Qiwu any dignity either. Look at Gu Qiwu’s face. Ah, how miserable! It’s all swollen! How does Gu Qiwu even endure that? If it were me, I would’ve returned the slap! I’ve always had zero tolerance for domestic violence!”

Zhou Zimo watched the screen as Gu Qiwu’s handsome face was clearly swollen. He could not help but take delight in his misfortune. As he turned to Mu Yuchen who remained silent, he said, “Doris’s face has turned ashen. That means she must be quite angry! That or she’s just great at acting!”

Upon hearing that, Mu Yuchen elegantly buttoned up his sleeves and said unaffectedly, “Is that so? I didn’t see a hint of surprise from her eyes. I only saw anger. That means she wasn’t that surprised by this outcome.” Mu Yuchen’s deep voice came through, sounding a little cold to Zhou Zimo.

Zhou Zimo looked at him hesitantly, and then asked, “So?”

“So, she must have known about Gu Qiwu and Lingshi’s relationship. At least, before this, she must’ve already found out.” Mu Yuchen’s tone was filled with certainty.

Zhou Zimo’s eyes darkened as he responded, “That does sound logical. However, Gu Qiwu is so sure that you did it. In fact, Qi Qiming’s reaction seemed interesting, but I do know that he had a close relationship with your aunt before this. How then? What are you planning on doing after this?”

Mu Yuchen’s expression was as calm as water. He did not immediately answer Zhou Zimo’s question as he gently leaned back against the seat and silently watched the laptop screen. His eyes flickered mysteriously.

“Actually, I don’t have many memories of Aunt either, but from the times that I’ve interacted with her, I could also feel that she was a very innocent woman. My grandparents had hoped that she could live a simple and quiet life, and there was nothing wrong with that. Unfortunately, some things remain a hope. Up to this day, the tragedy has never stopped,” Mu Yuchen said in a deep voice that was slightly raspy. His fair and slender finger gently held his heavy head. “Whether it was for Aunt, or Lingtian, Lingshi, or the Mu family, Gu Qiwu still owes us an explanation and there’s a score to settle. These things have to be dealt with sooner or later.”

When he said that, his gaze slowly brushed past Zhou Zimo and silently looked at the laptop screen.

At this moment, inside the banquet hall, the door suddenly opened as soon as Gu Qiwu made his speech. A few black-clothed bodyguards appeared before the crowd as a tall and lean figure suddenly showed up. The crowd made quite a commotion as the person was recognized.

It was Mu Yuchen’s personal assistant, Li Si!

Behind him were several bodyguards, also in black, and they were slowly making their way to the stage. The bodyguards even held gifts.

When he saw Li Si, Gu Qiwu’s cold expression became even more uncertain!

Li Si reached the stage very promptly. He looked up at Gu Qiwu, Doris, and the rest. Upon seeing their mixed expressions, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but then he smiled.

“Earlier, we heard Mr. Gu call for our Master’s name when we reached the door. Did something happen? Why do you look quite angry, Mr. Gu?” Li Si looked up innocently at Gu Qiwu.

However, just as Li Si said that, Gu Qiwu gave him a cold look and said, “Stop playing dumb. Where’s Mu Yuchen? Tell him to meet me! I know he did this. Does he realize what occasion it is today? He’s really overestimated me!”

You could hear the sarcasm from Gu Qiwu’s voice. It seemed as if he was holding back a wave of emotions too.

“Assistant Li, if you’re here to congratulate me and Shasha, we welcome you, but if you’re here to cause trouble, then don’t blame us for being less than courteous!” A hoarse voice came through, and a few dark figures appeared before Li Si, blocking the latter and his group.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The one who had spoken was Qi Feng. The scene was getting out of hand, and the crowd was still whispering while many people from the press had their cameras aimed at this scene on stage. Qi Feng obviously did not want these things to spread or for things to get out of hand, so he had immediately given Morrison a look. Immediately, Morisson brought his people forward.

Li Si did not mind as he smiled and said calmly, “Cause trouble? What trouble? I’m just here to bring wedding gifts on behalf of my Master, and at the same time, show you all such a moving story. Mr. Gu, you seem quite worried. Could you really be the man in the video?”

Upon hearing that, Gu Qiwu’s expression became even darker as if a storm was brewing.

“Li Si, what is the meaning of all this?! If you’re really here to ruin my wedding, don’t blame me if I won’t be courteous! Security! Take them away!”

Gu Lingsha seemed to sense something out of place, so she quickly called for the security guards with Qi Feng.

The bodyguards behind Li Si immediately went up to them, but they were stopped by Li Si.

“No need to get all worked up. I think Mr. Gu knows very well what the meaning of all this is, don’t you, Mr. Gu? Don’t you have anything to say at all?” Li Si said, then looked at the irate Gu Qiwu while Doris stood near him. Although they were separated by Ah Yong, she looked terribly unhappy too.

Before Gu Qiwu could answer, Gu Lingsha already went up and responded, “What do you think my father should say? I think that you’re clearly here to ruin the relationship between the Qis and the Gus!”

Gu Qiwu did not say anything as he looked at Li Si with a mixed expression. His gaze was filled with silent contempt.

“Mr. Gu, what do you think?” Li Si ignored Gu Lingsha as he looked past the crowd and fixed his gaze on Gu Qiwu. He did not plan on letting him off.

Qi Lei, who kept quiet on the side, enjoyed the show with his hands casually put in his pockets. He silently watched this scene, yet he kept thinking to himself, ‘What is Mu Yuchen trying to do?’

Could he really be trying to ruin Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha’s wedding?

Still, doing so did not seem very meaningful.
