Qin Mo took out his cell phone and called Gu Xi, but her phone was still turned off…

He could imagine how she felt!

Deep inside, he wished for Tang Xinru to have a miscarriage even if he had to pay a bigger price… because if that happened, at least he would still have a chance to be with Gu Xi!

But it was impossible now!

He understood Gu Xi’s character very well. She was the type who wouldn’t change her mind after she had decided on something.

Qin Mo stood there, feeling an unprecedented sense of helplessness…

A nurse walked over. “Mr. Qin, Mrs. Qin needs you to sign something. Her emotions aren’t too stable, so you should comfort her. Otherwise, the baby might be in danger.”

Qin Mo had looked down at his feet for a moment before standing up and heading towards the hospital room…

Gu Xi sat alone in her apartment, deeply hurt. She laid on the sofa, her shoes and bag tossed aside. She didn’t care about anything and just stayed there…

Her phone rang many times, but she didn’t pick up any of her calls. Soon, her phone battery ran out and it stopped ringing.

She didn’t care at all…

And just sat there.

She was so foolish… to even have hope in Qin Mo!

She sat there from dawn until dusk, feeling like a century had passed by…

As the sky grew dark, she looked up before realizing that she’d been sitting there the entire day!

Slowly, she got up. She felt hungry, so she went to the kitchen. She had drunk a bottle of milk before going to the bathroom to clean up.

Looking at her own reflection, she thought to herself…

‘Gu Xi, it’s not a big deal!’ She smiled. ‘Didn’t you already give up way before this?’

She wasn’t upset at all, not even a bit!

Gu Xi roughly wiped her face and went to change.

She put on a pink-colored dress. The silky material on her soft and pale skin and straight black hair draping across her shoulders made her look absolutely stunning.

Especially her long and slim legs, which were enough to move any man!

An hour later, Gu Xi appeared at the most exclusive club in City H—the Monarch.

The boss behind The Monarch was Shen Che. Gu Xi was an acquaintance of his. They even played together when they were young.

He was quite a complicated person. Gu Xi met him a few times at business banquets, but she only nodded to say hello.

At the time, she had Qin Mo, so she kept her distance from all men.

Qin Mo… once again, she thought about Qin Mo!

Gu Xi viciously downed a large cup and passed it back to the bartender. The bartender also enjoyed serving a beautiful client.

This girl was too beautiful, and the aura around her was clean and pure. She didn’t belong here!

But at that moment, she was so charming under the dim light. Her hair brushed lightly against her cheek, and her eyelashes fluttered whenever she blinked. She was breathtaking.

Gu Xi took the glass from the bartender and downed it immediately.

She ordered the strongest wines, and she had already drunk several glasses…

Yes, she wanted to indulge…

She didn’t care about anything anymore.

She had been together with Qin Mo for so long, but in the end, Tang Xinru became pregnant with Qin Mo’s child!

“Cheers to my best friend and the man I liked the most!” Gu Xi’s eyes were blurry. She supported her cheek with one hand, chuckling lightly with self-deprecation in her eyes.

How foolish she was. Her bosom friend and subordinate fell in love with her fiancé and climbed into his bed behind her back… Looking back, the three of them even had dinner together several times!

Sometimes, when Qin Mo went to the washroom, Tang Xinru also followed…

What happened between them in the washroom?

Gu Xi giggled to herself.

“How ridiculous, Gu Xi, you’re the world’s biggest fool!” She laughed so much that she had to lean against the countertop, her slender and perfect body trembling slightly…

Her beauty was like a pearl in the night, attracting countless men!

Even so, The Monarch wasn’t a place where one could carelessly make a move. Hence, no one dared to make any moves, even if they yearned for her.

In the luxury room on the top floor, Shen Che held onto his wine glass and glanced at Pei Qian. “You’re sure you don’t want to save the damsel in distress?”

In front of them was a huge monitor, and Gu Xi was displayed on the monitor.

Pei Qian pursed his lips. “She’s thinking about Qin Mo right now!”

Was this jealousy?

Shen Che smiled in a dazzling manner. “At least five men are waiting for her to collapse! Pei Qian, if you’re not going to make a move I don’t mind lending a hand!”

After a pause, he continued, “Of course, tonight might be a perfect night!”

“Don’t you dare touch her!” Pei Qian stood up.

Throwing on his coat, he walked out.

Shen Che chuckled. “It’s so easy to rile him up. How boring!”

He looked at Pei Qian’s back and was worried. This Pei Qian was no longer like the heartless President Pei of the past!

Gu Xi couldn’t remember how much she drank, she just felt discomfort in her stomach…

After she had settled the bill, she walked outside. She couldn’t help but vomit on the sidewalk.

She threw up so badly. It felt like her heart was going to be thrown up along with the contents of her stomach!

Pei Qian stood silently nearby. Of course, there were also other men waiting to ‘comfort’ Gu Xi, but the men behind Pei Qian scared them away and so they swiftly left.

Gu Xi froze, and she turned her head slowly. It was Pei Qian!

He stood under the night sky, like a deity…

He walked towards her in the fierce evening breeze…

Gu Xi held onto the railing next to her, intending to escape. But her high heels got twisted that she almost fell.

He held her steady with his large hands and stared into her eyes. “Do you want to drink?”

He dragged her in the direction of The Monarch. Gu Xi stumbled and unsteadily followed him.

Pei Qian pulled her along towards a private room. He had kicked the door open before flinging her inside.

Loosening his tie, he spoke to the manager. “Bring me two bottles of vodka.”

“Crazy bastard!” Gu Xi wanted to get up, but he blocked her way. He coldly spoke, “Miss Gu, have you forgotten your status? Based on our relationship, it’s perfectly normal for me to treat you to drinks.”

Gu Xi stared at him groggily, sneering. “I’ll only accompany you in bed, not for drinks.”

“Is that so?” He removed his tie and placed it in his pocket before turning his attention back to her. “Then come here.”

He pulled her into his arms. Before Gu Xi could react, he kissed her.

Warm lips and tongues intertwined with a hint of alcohol. Their breaths mingled and burned away their sense of rationality.

Her chest was forced against his, each movement and friction causing the air in her lungs to explode.
