Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself

1368 Feelings Can’t Be Forced

What right did Guan Hui have to decide what to do with the violin that Huo Yuzhou had bid for?

Qiao Xi’s words instantly caused Guan Hui to choke. Her lips moved as she said with an aggrieved expression, “Xi Xi, it’s been so many years. Why are you still so hostile toward me? I’ve always wanted to beg for your forgiveness. I only thought of lending it to you because I know you like this violin. I really don’t have any ill intentions, but you always doubt my intentions.

“Back then, Yuzhou brought me away, and I know you hate me for it, but feelings can’t be forced. I’m not worthy of Yuzhou, and you look down on my identity, so you can’t accept me being by Yuzhou’s side. I understand that.”

Everyone looked at Qiao Xi with different expressions. What did everyone not understand after Miss Guan said this? Miss Guan knew that Mrs. Gu hated her, so she had been trying her best to please her. However, Mrs. Gu did not appreciate her kindness and even acted arrogantly, making Miss Guan sad.

Even if Mrs. Gu really liked Mr. Huo, that was all in the past. Now that Mrs. Gu was already married to Gu Zheng and Mr. Huo was about to marry Miss Guan, it was really not right for her to keep this grudge!

Moreover, Mr. Huo bought this violin for Miss Guan. Of course, she had the right to decide what to do with it. Mrs. Gu’s words sounded like she was jealous of her.

At this moment, someone comforted her in a low voice. “Miss Guan, don’t be sad. This violin was given to you by Mr. Huo. Of course, you have the right to decide who to lend this violin to. However, if she’s unwilling to accept it, don’t force her.”

“Xi Xi, I… I really have good intentions. I just want you to forgive me. Can’t we be friends like before? Why must you be so unforgiving?”

As soon as she finished speaking, footsteps sounded. Everyone made way for the man. Huo Yuzhou walked over, appearing straight and tall.

“Yuzhou…” Guan Hui hurriedly went forward to welcome him.

Everyone’s gazes landed on the two of them, but Huo Yuzhou did not stop at all. He walked past Guan Hui and continued forward.

The smile on Guan Hui’s face froze instantly. She looked at the stunned crowd and explained awkwardly, “I’m sorry, but Yuzhou must have something important to attend to. Please don’t take offense…”

However, before Guan Hui could finish speaking, everyone looked in the direction of Huo Yuzhou’s figure and saw him stop in front of Qiao Xi.

“Xi Xi.”

That gentle voice made Guan Hui’s ears buzz, and her face turned pale.

Qiao Xi was lowering her head to reply to Xue Liang’s message when a shadow suddenly blocked the light. She raised her eyes to look at the man in front of her, and the joy in her heart instantly dissipated as she frowned unhappily.

She turned around and wanted to leave Huo Yuzhou’s side, but this man was too shameless. Wherever she went, Huo Yuzhou would stand in her way to stop her from leaving.

Qiao Xi: “…”

She took a few steps back to distance herself from him. Her voice was cold. “Mr. Huo, please move aside!”

Huo Yuzhou looked at her stunning face and was dazed for a moment. Then, his voice was gentle. “Xi Xi, there’s been a misunderstanding between us. Can I talk to you?”

Qiao Xi instantly clenched her fists and kept telling herself that she was a weak woman and could not hit someone in front of so many people. She had to calm down.

She suppressed the urge to hit him and snorted. “Mr. Huo…”

However, before she could finish, Huo Yuzhou handed her a piece of paper. Qiao Xi looked down and saw that it was a receipt for 30 million yuan. It was signed with his name. Huo Yuzhou’s handwriting was strong and unique.

When Qiao Xi saw the numbers on it, she instantly reacted and could not help but sneer.

Huo Yuzhou lowered his eyes and stared at her with his deep eyes. His tone was filled with patience and affection. “Xi Xi, I owed you too much in the past. Take this violin as an apology. I hope you can accept it.”

Everyone’s pupils trembled as they watched this scene in disbelief.

What? The violin was for Mrs. Gu?

Mr. Huo spent 30 million on this violin. Wasn’t it for Miss Guan? Why did he give it to Mrs. Gu in the blink of an eye?

These casual words caused the entire hall to fall into dead silence. The air seemed to have frozen.

The eyes of those socialites and noblewomen who were flattering Guan Hui earlier were filled with shock as their gazes shifted between Qiao Xi and Guan Hui.

Guan Hui felt dizzy and her body went numb. It was as if she was going to faint the next second.

Huo Yuzhou bought this zither for Qiao Xi? It was not for her?
