Ding Yinuo’s question was rather blunt.
I hesitated for a few seconds,
“Hard to say! If he is a good man, I might fall in love with him!”
At this moment, I wasn’t answering from Song Xiaoyun’s perspective, but from my own.
Ding Yinuo let out a soft laugh.
There was a hint of sarcasm in his smile.
He glanced at Pei Zexi, his tone a bit strange.
“You go ahead! Could even give a brief explainer if you like!”
Pei Zexi adjusted his suit, and proceeded to shed light on a truth that I had never realized before and was still unable to accept.
I had always assumed that
Gu Yuanzhou had an affair out of a desire for novelty.
After all, after being married for so long, Gu Yuanzhou was highly likely looking for some excitement.
But I never imagined that he had never loved me at all.
“It was ten years ago that Song Yun’s uncle, Song Shixiong, held quite a high position in A City. And Gu Yuanzhou went to great lengths to win his approval.
After a year of effort, Gu Yuanzhou indeed gained Song Shixiongs approval. But Song Shixiong was a sharp man. He used Gu Yuanzhou without integrating him into the Song family, and he was unwilling to distribute any of his businesses to him. This meant that as soon as Song Shixiong wasn’t pleased, he could dismiss Gu Yuanzhou at any time…
“l heard that while Gu Yuanzhou was indeed very hard-working at the time, he made some serious mistake. Song Shixiong kicked him out mercilessly.
Subsequently, Gu Yuanzhou set his sights on Song Shixiongs niece, Song Yun. Song Shixiong had no daughters, only a niece who he cherished after his sister passed away. That niece was Song Yun.”
“Later, Gu Yuanzhou took a shortcut, wooed Song Yun, and successfully secured Song Shixiongs investment and strong support. And so Zhenyi
Company was established.”
Pei Zexi’s words startled me.
I had never known that Gu Yuanzhou had kept so many things from me.
If all of this was true, then it meant he had never loved me from the very beginning.
I fell silent.
Picking up my glass, I took a sip of wine.
The bitter taste went straight to the back of my throat.
How ridiculous! How utterly ridiculous!
I had always thought I was the one Gu Yuanzhou betrayed, when it turns out, he had never loved me in the first place.
Perhaps Ye Mengyan is his true love.
For a moment my hands and feet felt cold…
Perhaps noticing that I didn’t look too well, Ding Yinuo chastised Pei Zexi,
“Enough! Can’t you keep your mouth shut during a meal!”
Pei Zexi was still laughing carelessly,
“What’s the fear, we’re not the ones involved! Just consider it gossip!’
Su Peisheng nudged him,
“Ahem, don’t scare Miss Song. She’s new to the workplace! If you spill all the secrets about her boss, how can she continue to work afterward?”
Only then did Pei Zexi realize, and leaned over again to say,
“Sweetie, Gu Yuanzhou is not a good guy, why not come work for my company instead!”
Ding Yinuo pushed Pei Zexi away,
“Don’t get any ideas about her, she’s mine!”
“Ah, are you getting protective, Mr. Ding?”
“Have you lost your mind? Always bad-mouthing people’s boss. Are you sick?” Su Peisheng tried to smooth things over,
“Right, right, the focus today is to eat and drink. Let’s… Ding, cheers, may you find the love of your life soon.”
“What’s the rush, I’m committed to staying single.”
“Cut it, aren’t you worried your thing won’t work anymore from lack of use over the years!”
“Pei Zexi, do you have a death wish!”
“Okay, I misspoke. I’ll punish myself with three glasses!’
“Three glasses is not enough, make it three bottles! If you don’t finish them, you’re leaving on your back! ”
For the remainder of the time, the men ate, drank, and talked about some affairs in the upper social circles.
But I had no appetite for food.
If Gu Yuanzhou is really like what Pei Zexi said, then what did our feelings over the years mean?
After the meal, I got back to the matter at hand.
“Mr. Su, regarding Wenya’s case, how should I proceed?”
Su Peisheng, his cheeks flushed from drinking,
“To be honest, coming to me won’t help! It depends on Gu Yuanzhou’s mood, you might as well go to him. As long as he relents, this won’t be an issue.”
“Is there truly no other way? I mean, from a legal aspect!’
“It’s not that there is none… Many things can actually be worked around.”
Su Peisheng always liked to speak in riddles. He often wouldn’t get to the point, beating around the bush. I was having a hard time following him.
Ding Yinuo punched him,
“Stop beating around the bush!”
“l dare not speak too directly, otherwise, if something goes wrong, I could be charged with instigation!”
Indeed, as a lawyer, he was always cautious.
After Ding Yinuo had spoken for a long time, Su Peisheng still refused to get to the point.
Eventually, Ding Yinuo had had enough and said directly to me,
“It’s actually quite simple, it’s up to you whether you’re willing to do it or not.”
“Go ahead!”
“Grab hold of Gu Yuanzhou’s dirty secrets, and use them as bargaining chips. That way you can force him to let Wenya go.”
I nodded in agreement.
Su Peisheng gave a thumbs up,
“Ding is so educated, he sure can talk! Getting full marks in reading comprehension! This hits the nail on the head.”
Ding Yinuo pushed him,
“Enough from you! Now it’s my words, not yours, so you won’t get into trouble, right? You sure do know how to pass the buck.”
“Hehe, if you go in in the future, I can bail you out! If 1 go in, none of you can bail me out! This is team spirit, considering everyone’s interests.” After the gathering, Ding Yinuo was still the one who drove me.
The car stopped in front of the rental house.
But Ding Yinuo did not hurry to get out of the car. He leaned against the window to smoke, his long eyes slightly scrutinizing me.
Up close, this man has very delicate features, very fair skin, so fair there’s not a single flaw.
His personality is naturally cold, unlike Gu Yuanzhou’s scheming nature. I remember in high school, Ding Yinuo was like an unreachable flower on a high mountain.
So beautiful, so clean.
After finishing a cigarette, he finally looked at me,
“If you agree to be with me, I can help you bail Wenya out!”
“In what context?”
I know that Ding Yinuo’s feelings for me are not like what those other young masters said, that he has any romantic intentions.
He just wants to use me to deal with Gu Yuanzhou.
I understand the interests involved here very well.
I’m not stupid.
Ding Yinuo gave a light chuckle,
“l can’t say now, when the time comes, I’ll need your cooperation.”
The only path left for me is narrow, my choices are limited. The only option I have for now is to get Wenya bailed out ASAP.
“Alright! I agree.”
My answer seemed to satisfy Ding Yinuo.
He stared into my eyes for a long time, then sighed,
“l must admit, you mimic Song Xiaoyun so convincingly! I was almost deceived by you..”
