Ex-husband CEO Don’t be Rampant - C44
About ten minutes before Gu Zhi Qiu arrived at the ball, the beautiful bride was supported down the stairs by her good friend. The bride was dressed in a beautiful white dress.
A woman dressed in a long blue dress like a fairy made everyone in the audience sigh at her beauty.
“That is… Qiu Xuan? ”
“It seems like Qiu Xuan, alas, didn’t she go abroad and came back?”
The guests started to discuss. Li Shao Han, who was beside Li Zhan Chen, also had a look of shock as he whispered, “Brother, isn’t that Big Sister Qiu Xuan?”
Li Zhan Chen acted as if he did not hear what Li Shao Han said, his gaze fixated on the lady in the blue dress.
It was her, it really was her. She who was so obsessed with him had now appeared in front of him. She had returned.
Li Shao Han looked at Li Zhan Chen, and the corner of his mouth rose.
It was just as he had expected. It was exactly as he had planned.
Li Shao Han’s calculations were indeed correct. When the bride started the dance and when her good friend started dancing again, that woman dressed in blue who was emitting a faint gentle glow walked over to Li Zhan Chen with graceful steps. She looked at him and asked softly: “Can I invite you to do a dance?”
Li Zhan Chen could reject all the women present, but he could never let her go. He held her hand and slowly embraced her waist, his gaze becoming anxious as if he couldn’t separate them. He looked at her and she at him.
When Gu Zhi Qiu came in, she saw Li Zhan Chen sliding onto the dance floor in his embrace, and the two of them dancing together like a perfect couple.
Gu Zhi Qiu stood at the very back and was buried under the darkness. Everyone’s gaze was focused on the two people as they discussed amongst themselves.
The little girl whispered: “As expected of Young Master Li and Qiu Xuan.”
“I think so too. The high and cold emperor with the gentle fairy is the standard combination, but that fox spirit Gu Zhi Qiu actually separated two people from her position. Even when I think about her now, I feel disgusted.”
“That’s right, disgusting. Su Daji can reincarnate. What kind of beauty is she being called when she’s being pursued by a man? Then she shamelessly went to seduce someone’s boyfriend.”
“Heh, that’s why people are watching what’s happening. We’ve been married for over a year, and we haven’t gotten pregnant with a child. We’ve done too many bad things, so it’s time for retribution.”
Those venomous words pierced Gu Zhi Qiu’s eardrums, and the scene in front of her eyes made her heart ache even more.
At first, Gu Zhi Qiu had her head lowered as she squeezed into the crowd, trying to hide her face as much as possible. But now, as the crowd dispersed, it was as if she was exposed.
“I’m sorry.” Gu Zhi Qiu was about to leave in a hurry.
“I’m so sorry. Why don’t you dance with me to apologize?” The man said with some reluctance.
Gu Zhi Qiu didn’t look at her, she couldn’t stay in this place any longer. She dodged the man in panic and said: “I’m leaving, I still have things to do.”
“Is that so? You want to leave? Then let me send you out. I coincidentally have to leave too.” As the man said that, he suddenly pulled Gu Zhi Qiu’s hand, and with her other hand wrapped around Gu Zhi Qiu’s body, he started dancing and walked towards the side door.
That was where Gu Zhi Qiu came from. She spun around, and her gaze landed on the pair of beauties in the middle of the dance floor. She was practically infatuated with them, to the point that tears were about to fall from her eyes.
It was really beautiful, really beautiful. During the past year, she hadn’t seen that man with such deep feelings for her.
At this moment, Gu Zhi Qiu finally understood that all of the gentleness and patience she had shown this year was just a clown who jumped all over the place. There wasn’t a single thing about her that existed in his heart.
The man continued to walk toward the side door while hugging Gu Zhi Qiu. Outside of the door and inside of the door were two different worlds. After it quieted down, Gu Zhi Qiu pushed the man away and only then did she raise her head to look at the man who had barged in.
The man didn’t know why he was wearing sunglasses. It was really weird for him to wear sunglasses at night, but Gu Zhi Qiu didn’t have the time to care about him.
“Hey, you want to go to the parking lot, right? Let’s go together, I want to go as well.”
Gu Zhi Qiu didn’t want to care about him, so she coldly walked forward, but the man kept on following and talking to her.
“Who were you looking at just now? It seems like you are looking at that Li Zhan Chen. He’s dancing with some other woman in his arms, and that means he has no interest in you? “Tsk, he doesn’t have good taste. If it were me, I would definitely choose you. I like charming beauties.”
Gu Zhi Qiu stared coldly ahead, not even glancing at the man.
Even though he had a pretty profile, even though his thin lips were flying unrestrainedly, his bad looks could move many women.
Gu Zhi Qiu walked on without a change in expression until they reached the car park. She didn’t dare to think, afraid that she would collapse if she did.
Gu Zhi Qiu directly walked to his own car and got on the car.
The driver looked back at her. “Ma’am, are we leaving now?”
Gu Zhi Qiu closed her eyes and did not say a word. Two minutes later, Gu Zhi Qiu said: “Drive the car to the gate.”
“Yes ma’am.”
The car moved, Gu Zhi Qiu did not notice where the man that was following her went, she did not care about anything else.
The carriage drove all the way to the door, and Gu Zhi Qiu said to the person in front: “Please ask the people inside to help me find Li Shao Han, I have something to do, but I couldn’t find him when I went in, I’m in a hurry to leave.”
The person knew who she was and quickly called for the person inside. Li Shao Han was also looking for Gu Zhi Qiu, and the fact that she did not appear was completely unexpected.
Just when he was suspicious, someone said that Gu Zhi Qiu was at the main entrance. Li Shao Han was confused, why did he not come in? Because of his voice?
However, she didn’t want to expose her voice to the mayor’s servant, so she should just quietly send him her phone.
With that in mind, Li Shao Han went in front of the door. In the car, Gu Zhi Qiu saw him and smiled lightly: “Shao Han, give this to your big brother. The company has something they need to find him for.”
Li Shao Han looked at her with his eyes wide open.
“Sister-in-law, you …”
Gu Zhi Qiu nodded her head and said: “I am fine now, Xiao Han, I will be leaving first. You and your big brother should go home early.”
Li Shao Han didn’t think that he would make a mistake here. Looking at Gu Zhi Qiu’s calm and relaxed expression, Li Shao Han felt helpless and could only give up this time.
After he smiled, Li Shao Han waved his hand and said, “Then sister-in-law, go back a bit slower.”
Gu Zhi Qiu looked at Li Shao Han, and suddenly asked in a soft voice, “Shao Han, I’m not here. Does your big brother have a woman with him?”
She wanted to believe him one more time. After all, Li Shao Han was gentle, after all, he had said that he stood by her side and truly cared for her. He treated her as his family, and even called her “sister-in-law” and “sister-in-law” every day.
Therefore, perhaps he wouldn’t lie to him, perhaps he would tell him the truth. Perhaps even if it was a subtle hint, that wouldn’t be considered betraying his elder brother, perhaps he might …
“Nope. Sister-in-law, you didn’t come, how could Big Bro bring a female companion here? He’s bored to death alone at the ball right now.” Li Shao Han said with a smile. He had thought about it, and now was not the time to bring Gu Zhi Qiu in, otherwise, he would completely lose his standing in front of Big Brother.
The only moment that Gu Zhi Qiu could trust him, he lied.
Gu Zhi Qiu laughed, and said with a faintly discernible voice: “Oh, is that so, then that’s good.”
That’s right, there wasn’t that much of a difference. Perhaps, he was Li Zhan Chen’s little brother, his big brother’s little brother. They weren’t family.
