Arrogant Wife, Don’t Run Away - C31

Shen Xingyue smiled and looked at him without fear.

“Long time no see.” He nodded politely, “Meng Jiu, let me introduce you to Shen Xingyue.”

“Hello, Meng Jie. Luo Cheng’s good friend of many years. He’s also the elder sister of Meng Feng.” Meng Ya took the initiative to extend his hand and smiled at Shen Xingyue.

Although the other party’s eyes were not friendly, he could not expose them, “Hello, Shen Xingyue.” Without a single ripple on his face, he greeted the other party gracefully.

During the night, people of all sorts came to toast Gu Luocheng, speaking all sorts of polite words. Shen Xingyue stood quietly at the side as she watched him deal with everything with ease.

“Boring.” Meng Feng stood by Shen Xingyue’s side and looked at Gu Luocheng. As long as his elder brother was present at a banquet like this, there would be people who would incessantly come over to toast him.

Turning his head, he smiled helplessly and shook his head. “Is he always like this?” Picking up the fruit from the table, he placed it into his mouth and contemplated for a moment.

“Eldest brother doesn’t participate in these types of gatherings very often. This time, it’s because the Gu family has a big deal to discuss. That owner is the person who planned this party, so there’s nothing we can do.”

“Everyone, have a toast. Is he going to be drunk soon? I can’t handle him.” After a moment of silence, Shen Xingyue suddenly spoke.

“Luo Cheng doesn’t drink. As a person close to Luo Cheng, do you not even know these things?” Meng Ya did not know when he appeared.

He turned his body and glanced at Meng Jie. He did not say anything else. She did not like this woman very much, because she had been filled with hostility the moment she met him. It made her feel very uncomfortable.

“Meng Chao, go over there and get me a Bloody Mary.” Meng Lie casually pointed to the side, staring at Shen Xingyue with a meaningful smile on his face.

Glancing at Meng Jie, Meng Chao walked up to her ear and whispered, “Don’t talk nonsense.” He drank the wine in his cup and walked to the side.

Looking at Meng Chao’s back, she sneered, “Miss Shen, let’s chat for a bit.” He stepped in front of Shen Xingyue.

“We don’t seem to have anything to talk about.” She put down the goblet in her hand and calmly looked at the other party. Women were very sensitive to women. The moment she saw Meng Hao, she already felt that this woman was definitely interested in Gu Luocheng.

“How could that be? After all, we like the same man.” Straight to the point, she revealed her intentions without any hesitation. She just wanted to announce to Shen Xingyue that she still had Gu Luocheng at her side.

Sneering, he said, “Miss Meng, you must be thinking too much. I’m only Professor Gu’s assistant. It’s not my own wish to accompany him to this banquet.”

“You dare to say that you have no other intentions towards Luo Cheng?” Meng Lie glared aggressively at Shen Xingyue. She had long experienced the attraction Gu Luocheng had for women and knew that there was no one who would not be tempted by him.

“You’re right about that. Other than the friendship between teacher and student, I have nothing else for him.” He ate the fruit nonchalantly. “Don’t worry, this Professor Gu is just a brilliant and magnificent teacher in my heart. Besides, I’ve never had anything to do with him since I graduated. You don’t have to be so hostile towards me.”

Meng Li was stunned for a moment as he looked Shen Xingyue up and down. It seemed that he had underestimated this lady. Was she really not in the mood to care about Gu Luocheng or just pretending not to care?

Shen Xingyue ate her fruit and looked around the hall, not willing to meet Meng Dazhi’s eyes. In her heart, she kept praying for Gu Luocheng to return quickly. She didn’t want to be alone with this woman anymore.

“Did you know that Luo Cheng has a child?” As he said this, Meng Jie had been observing Shen Xingyue’s reaction.

The corners of his eyes twitched as he slowly put it on, “Is that so?” How could a student of mine know Professor Shen’s family background? How old is he? Boy and girl? ” On the surface, he pretended to be unconcerned as he asked, but his heart was tightly clenched. He had a child? So he’s married?

“He’s already five years old, right? It’s a little boy.” As he continued speaking, he kept his eyes on Shen Xingyue, waiting to see how she would react to this news.

Five years old, and he was secretly married all these years? Then what is he to me? She clenched her fist, but there was no emotion on her face. “Sorry, I need to go to the washroom.”

He didn’t want to stay by Meng Hao’s side for another moment. He hurriedly left and hid in the bathroom. Standing in front of the mirror and looking at his long dress, the scene of the two of them getting along flashed through his mind.

He was already married, but why did he have to provoke me? He clearly said he liked me, is this all a lie?

The more she thought about it, the more confused Shen Xingyue felt. At this moment, the sounds of footsteps could be heard, and upon seeing someone enter, Shen Xingyue hurriedly put away the sadness on her face and walked out as if she did not care.

Standing in the distance and watching Gu Luocheng continue to contend with others, he helplessly smiled bitterly. It seemed like Gu Luocheng didn’t really need him either, then why was he still staying here?

He took out his cell phone and dialed Fang Qian’s number, “Qian’Er, come and pick me up.”

Gu Luocheng’s gaze had never left Shen Xingyue since the beginning. He had always been looking in her direction, but had always been pestered and chatting. When he finally found the time, he discovered that his lovely body had disappeared.

He anxiously searched the crowd and finally found Shen Xingyue, who was hurriedly walking out of the door. There wasn’t much time for him to think, so he quickly chased after her.

“Xingyue, where are you going?” She grabbed her slender wrist and asked puzzledly. She had been feeling weird all day, but she didn’t know what was wrong with her.

He stopped and looked at Gu Luocheng with an indifferent expression. A polite smile hung on the corner of his mouth as he said, “Professor Gu, you can do your work first. I have something to do, so I’ll be leaving first.”

He shook off the pair of large hands and got into the car. He left without looking back. The moment the car started, tears started streaming down his face. He could hear the sound of his heart breaking.

Looking at the speeding car, her hands were empty and she felt a sense of loss. She definitely couldn’t have done it for no reason, but what was it for?

When Meng Feng saw Gu Luocheng running out, he followed silently. When he saw what had just happened, he walked forward and lightly patted Gu Luocheng on the shoulder.

“Go back.” He sighed and put away the sadness in his eyes. He pretended that nothing had happened and slowly walked into the hall.

Looking at Gu Luocheng’s expression, Meng Chao sighed lightly, “Big Brother, Shen Xingyue might have found out about the matter regarding the child.” He couldn’t bear to see his big brother be kept in the dark, so he told him his speculations.

He was stunned and turned around with a fierce look in his eyes. “Who told her that?” Very few people knew about it. They just didn’t want her to know.

Meng Chao raised his head and looked at Gu Luocheng. His heart sank, Gu Luocheng’s gaze had already told him that he was already angry.
