Chapter 55: 55 He’s kind of absolute 1
Translator: 549690339
In the dead of night, a man and a woman together, especially when Ding Yinuo is still draped in a bath towel, the relationship between the two does indeed raise suspicions.
For a moment, I didn’t know how to explain my relationship with Ding Yinuo to Ye Mengyan.
Should I tell her, that I am conspiring with Ding Yinuo to assassinate Gu Yuanzhou?
Of course not.
As I was hesitating, Ding Yinuo took the initiative. He walked straight up, draped his arm over my shoulder and said to Ye Mengyan,
“She is my girlfriend! Any issue with that?”
“Oh!”
Ye Mengyan wasn’t overly surprised.
After all, she is just a naive mistress.
Gu Yuanzhou wouldn’t let her step into the workplace, let alone let her know about the bloody battles between Zhenyi Company and Tianjiao Company.
Plus, competition between companies is a covert matter.
“Can I talk to you?”
She didn’t seem to care much about Ding Yinuo. Before I could open my mouth, Ding Yinuo politely refused, “Sorry, it’s too late now. We are going to sleep.”
Despite the obvious dismissal, Ye Mengyan still refused to leave,
“Xiaoyun, I don’t have any friends in A City. My cousin aunt was taken away by the police, my mother is about to go crazy, I can’t think of anyone who can help me!”
“What does your cousin aunt have to do with us? Xiaoyun doesn’t have any connection with you, does she?”
Ding Yinuo maintained an aloof attitude and even responded to Ye Mengyan in a somewhat rude manner.
Ye Mengyan, being thin-skinned, immediately blushed to her ears and quickly apologized,
“I’m sorry for bothering you, I’ll leave now.”
I called after her, “Come in!”
“Thank you, Xiaoyun!’
After some hesitation, Ye Mengyan finally accompanied me inside.
Once inside, she kept looking around cautiously while Ding Yinuo stood there with his arms folded, eyeing Ye Mengyan with caution.
He seemed to have a strong prejudice against Ye Mengyan, guarding himself
against her like she was a thief.
Ye Mengyan felt so uncomfortable under his gaze that she didn’t know where to put her hands.
I said to Ding Yinuo,
“Go change clothes, it’s not okay to be standing like this?”
Ding Yinuo has a good physique and it’s obvious that he’s been exercising regularly. He has a six-pack, muscular body, and straight legs.
True, with such assets, he i s not afraid to expose himself in front of women.
But, after all, I’m not really his girlfriend, standing there in the nude is a little awkward.
Ding Yinuo shrugged and finally turned around and walked into the bedroom, closing the door behind him.
Ye Mengyan whispered to me, “l never heard before that you have a boyfriend?”
“Um, we just started dating…”
Ye Mengyan nodded. She didn’t ask further, apparently, she didn’t have the mood to gossip now.
She then told me about her current predicament.
“Now that things have happened, I really don’t have any other friends to talk to.”
“What about Shen Yishu?”
I thought to myself, even though Shen Yishu is just a college fresh graduate, he has been working in the media industry for so long and should have some friends and connections who could help Ye Mengyan to some extent.
Ye Mengyan shook her head,
“Sigh, ever since I told Brother Gu that I plan to marry Yishu, he had someone beat up Yishu… When Shen’s mother found out about it, she called off the engagement.”
I’m not particularly surprised. After all, Gu Yuanzhou is that kind of man.
Anything he desires to have, he will not permit others to lay their hands on. It’s in his nature.
Of course, this also proves that Ye Mengyan is indeed very important to him.
“So, I can’t go looking for him now, we haven’t contacted each other for a long time. He is still in the hospital, and his mother has his cell phone.”
I was silent, pouring a cup of tea for Ye Mengyan.
“Why didn’t you go to find Gu Yuanzhou?”
“l did look for him, but he didn’t answer my calls. I went to Zhenyi Company, and the security guard told me that Brother Gu was taken away by the police. I didn’t know what to do. so I came to ask von what is going on?”
At this point, I don’t want to hide anything from Ye Mengyan anymore.
I recounted the incident of the fire at the Golden Bay villa to her.
As well as Wu Jun’s confession that Gu Yuanzhou started the fire…
After hearing this, Ye Mengyan’s face changed drastically, and she immediately denied,
“Impossible, Brother Gu would never do such a thing.”
“Doesn’t it frighten you to feel that the man you’re so much in love with is so wicked? Does it chill you to the bone?”
I looked at Ye Mengyan.
Ye Mengyan was wringing her hands, pacing back and forth in the living room. The expression on her little face was one of panic.
“No, it’s impossible, Brother Gu isn’t like that. You don’t know how much he loves… never mind, Xiaoyun, you tell me, how can I help Brother Gu?”
“If Gu Yuanzhou really is the culprit who started the fire and killed his wife, would you still want to save such a man?”
I looked at Ye Mengyan before me.
She reminded me very much of myself back then.
At that time, I also loved Gu Yuanzhou recklessly, eagerly giving up everything for him.
Ye Mengyan didn’t hesitate for a moment and firmly told me, “I want to save him!”
“Haha, that’s wonderful!”
Her reply was within my expectations.
Gu Yuanzhou indeed has such charm.
He’s that kind of man.
He can easily stir a woman’s heart, making you fall head over heels for him in no time.
Haha… He is a master at being a playboy.
Ye Mengyan blushed afterward, apparently lacking much confidence.
“I know that I am not as outstanding as Mrs. Gu given my current circumstances. But, I will do everything I can to love him.”
I remained silent. It seemed that Ye Mengyan was not pretending anymore.
In the past, she was hesitant and concerned about Shen Yishu’s feelings.
Now, she’s like a moth, rushing towards Gu Yuanzhou without hesitation.
She probably noticed the indifferent expression in my eyes, and quickly explained,
“Xiaoyun, don’t get me wrong, I’m not that kind of woman… What I mean is, despite my personal relationship with Brother Gu over the past four years, we’ve been discreet, our actions borne out of affection but with respect. He has always viewed me as his sister, and l, being in a relationship with Shen Yishu, have always regarded him as my brother.”
“And then?”
“Then, Mrs. Gu is no longer alive, I don’t have any moral constraints. Brother Gu is free and single, and 1 have canceled my engagement with Shen Yishu. Isn’t it normal for me to pursue him now?”
“You’re not wrong about that, but the problem is! If Gu Yuanzhou is indeed the culprit, he will go to jail!’
“It doesn’t matter, I can wait for him! Ten years, twenty years, I can wait.” I was really taken aback by Ye Mengyan’s unexpected confession.
“It’s late, and there’s no news. Tomorrow morning, you can look for Lawyer Zhou Chenming. Let him take you to the police station to see if you can meet with your aunt and Gu Yuanzhou.”
After talking with me for a while, Ye Mengyan seemed to have calmed down a lot. She drank a cup of tea and then revealed to me another piece of news that shocked me.
As expected, Wu Jun was not introduced to the Golden Bay villa as a nanny by an agency, but was arranged by someone else..
