My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy

Chapter 236: Test_1
Gu Yuanzhou’s all-black, piano-finished phone lay flat on the table, its screen alive with a flashing call.

I glanced at it unintentionally and saw the name Xun Yixuan marked on it.

So, he truly was incorrigible! He was still in contact with Xun Yixuan. Was he trying to find something to use against me?

Seeing me staring at his phone screen, he hung up the call immediately, then very cautiously put his phone back in his pocket.

Pointing across the table, he said,

“Sit!”

I pulled out a chair and sat across from him.

Gu Yuanzhou snapped his fingers,

“Waiter, we’re ready to order!”

The waiter came over and handed him the exquisite menu, which he then passed to me,

“You can order anything you want!”

I was completely uninterested in the menu and didn’t take it from him.

“Gu Yuanzhou, I’m not in the mood for dinner. Let’s get straight to business!”

Gu Yuanzhou calmly pulled out a document from his bag and handed it to me.

“According to the latest data, Tianjiao Company has snatched almost sixteen percent of our old customers! Your actions are highly inappropriate!”

“Gu Yuanzhou, as the boss of Zhenyi Company, you should use your intelligence to keep customers, instead of using these underhanded tactics against me. After all, the market is limited. Whoever has the better, higher quality product—customers will choose them!”

Gu Yuanzhou held his glass of red wine, seemingly unphased, his deep eyes locked onto me.

After a long while, he curled his lips into a smile.

“Do you think if I used those underhanded methods, you’d still be alive to argue with me?”

I felt a chill radiating from the depths of Gu Yuanzhou’s eyes.

In truth, Gu Yuanzhou has always had an intense presence around him.

In the past, when he was still doing business with my Uncle Song Shixiong, I could sense the malicious aura around him.

Perhaps it’s because as we fell in love and got married, I let my guard down as we grew more familiar and intimate, and so I couldn’t detect that malicious aura anymore.

But now, after seeing his true colors, I can feel it again—stronger than ever.

“Gu Yuanzhou, just tell me straight up what you want!”

Gu Yuanzhou did not respond to my words, but instead, asked me another question.

“When did you and Xun Yixuan break up? What month, which day, and for what reason?”

His question made me wary. Why would he suddenly ask something like this?

I gave him another careful look.

“President Gu, your memory is really bad. Isn’t it you who brought Xun Yixuan to my engagement ceremony to make a fuss? So how couldn’t you know when Xun Yixuan and I had broken up?”

Gu Yuanzhou picked up a finely-crafted lighter from the table and started flipping it back and forth in his hand.

The restaurant was still located by the water.

Sitting here, you could see through the glass window where the water met the sky, a blanket of stars.

At this time, the restaurant was almost empty.

Just Gu Yuanzhou and me.

And one waiter!

The dim, elegant lights did not expose the darkness in our eyes).

His strategies were far more complex than I could have imagined.

He didn’t answer me, he didn’t even play along with my topic.

“Do you know what Xun Yixuan’s parents’ names are?”

“How ridiculous, why would I bother to learn my ex’s parents’ names?”

“What was the name of your high school class teacher?”

“Gu Yuanzhou, do you think I would tell you? You are asking so many personal questions. If I told everything, wouldn’t you use them against me?”

“Which primary school did you and Xun Yixuan attend as children?”

“Why don’t you ask him about it?”

“You might not know what other people’s parents are named, but you must know how many brothers your father has or how many sisters your mother has!”

I was slightly taken aback, Gu Yuanzhou had asked me five questions.

Each question was about my identity as Song Xiaoyun.

In fact, I really didn’t know these details.

I only inherited Song Xiaoyun’s body, not her memories. I don’t know about her past.

But the crux of the matter is, why is Gu Yuanzhou digging into this?

“Gu Yuanzhou, if you’re not hiding anything, then I’m leaving!”

Gu Yuanzhou pulled out a blue notebook from his bag and placed it on the table.

“I found this in Song Xiaoyun’s rental house! It’s her diary… do you know what she wrote inside?”

“I don’t care what she wrote, this is mine, you have no right to take it!”

I reached out to snatch it.

Unexpectedly, he was quicker and grabbed my wrist.

His strong hand clamped on mine like a vise, pinning me down firmly.

I couldn’t move.

Both of us were in a deadlock.

“Gu Yuanzhou, you’re shameless! You stole my things!!”

I was furious, yet he chuckled.

“Your things? They are not yours, they belong to Song Xiaoyun, and you… are not Song Xiaoyun!”

“Gu Yuanzhou, what are you blabbering about?”

“Fine, if you really are Song Xiaoyun, then tell me, what’s written in this diary?”

“Let go of me, and I’ll tell you!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanzhou released his grip.

I didn’t waste time arguing with him, I grabbed the notebook from the table and bolted out of the restaurant.

I ran as fast as I could, using all the strength I had. Even when I was doing track and field in school, I had never exerted myself like this.

However, to my surprise, he didn’t chase me.

I didn’t dare to stop, I hailed a taxi by the road. Only after getting in the car did I notice my phone was ringing.

It was an unread text message from Gu Yuanzhou, saying only two words, “Open it!”

I hurriedly opened the blue notebook, only to find all its pages blank, except for a few words written on the front page.

They were written by Gu Yuanzhou.

If you want the real diary, come back to find me!

Furious, I immediately instructed the driver, “Sir, please turn around.”

About fifteen minutes later, I returned to the floating restaurant.

Gu Yuanzhou was still sitting in the same place, squinting at me.

He hadn’t moved an inch.

Seeing me return, a smirk curled his lips.

“I told you, if you want to play for real, you can’t beat me!”

“Where is the real diary?”

He looked at me,

“Aren’t you curious about what terminal disease Song Xiaoyun had?”

“Gu Yuanzhou, are you trying to trick me into saying something? Let me tell you, I’m already on my guard against you, you can’t get anything out of me.”

Gu Yuanzhou nonchalantly finished his cigarette.

“Isn’t it strange for someone not to know what kind of disease they have!”

“What are you talking about?”

“You are not Song Xiaoyun! You know nothing about her!”

“Where’s the diary?”

He looked at me intently again,

“Do you remember when Song Xiaoyun first started working at Zhenyi Company? Wasn’t she always bullied by other staff?”

I thought hard, my memory of the past was fuzzy. I just remembered that Song Xiaoyun back then didn’t dress well, wore glasses, and was somewhat inattentive. I thought she was just a newcomer to the workplace who wasn’t adapting well to the new environment, and didn’t think much about it.

Now that I think about it, it indeed feels odd!

“Gu Yuanzhou, what the hell are you trying to say?”

Gu Yuanzhou gazed at me again, and with underlying significance, said, “Song Xiaoyun is already dead!”
