Chapter 1067: Chapter 1071: Disgusting People Chapter 1067: Chapter 1071: Disgusting People Gu Junzhu chuckled, “No.”

Ye Xingbei tilted his head to look at him, “So certain? Isn’t Xie Motong with Li Qi? How come she’s with another man now? And Xie Motong has always looked down on ordinary people, that man looks like the most ordinary kind, how could Xie Motong be so gentle with a man like that?”

“Gentle?” Gu Junzhu’s mouth quirked, “Gentleness is just a facade. When she was reaching for the tissue earlier, her eyelids drooped, and the concealed movements of her body showed nothing but disgust and impatience. It’s clear that she’s just perfunctorily dealing with the man opposite her, not genuinely liking him.”

“Why is that?” Ye Xingbei was puzzled, “Why would she come to a place like this to eat, a place that in her eyes surely belongs to the lower class? Hanging around Li Qi, she should be entering places like the top-notch Beijing Hotel, right?”

Fifth Lord Gu cleared his throat, “Because Li Qi kicked her to the curb.”

“…” Ye Xingbei tilted his head to look at him, “You knew all along, didn’t you? You knew but didn’t tell me?”

Gu Junzhu, unfazed and steady-hearted, “It’s not anything important, just someone irrelevant to us, why bother mentioning it so much?”

Ye Xingbei: “…Heh.”

Don’t think that just because you’re acting nonchalant, I don’t know you’re jealous.

I’m just not calling it out.

Childish!

Ye Xingbei observed Xie Motong for a long while, “What do you think Xie Motong is up to? Could it be that after being dumped by Li Qi, she was so affected that she wants to turn over a new leaf, marry an ordinary man, and lead a mundane life of nurturing children?”

Gu Junzhu’s lips curved into a smirk, “Do you think that’s possible?”

“I think it’s impossible,” Ye Xingbei shook his head, “If she were content with a mundane life, she wouldn’t have instigated her own sister to harm me initially, nor would she have followed Li Qi, willingly allowing him to defile her. She’s rotten at the core, and I don’t believe that just because Li Qi dumped her, she can repent and make a fresh start… So what exactly is she doing?”

Gu Junzhu, while watching Xie Motong and the man opposite her, gently rubbed his fingertips, “I suddenly recall something that happened a long while back.”

Ye Xingbei tilted his head, “Hmm?”

Gu Junzhu said, “A long time ago, there was a woman who was pregnant with her sugar daddy’s child. Her sugar daddy’s wife was very dominant, a great lady from a prestigious family, and their marriage was strained, sharing only a daughter. Once the woman realized she was pregnant with her sugar daddy’s child, scared of being found out by his wife, who would surely have the baby aborted, she hurried back to her hometown and found an honest man to marry in haste.”

Ye Xingbei: “…Why?!”

Gu Junzhu’s smirk grew, “Because she wanted to give birth to her sugar daddy’s child and get a share of his inheritance. But since the sugar daddy’s wife knew about her affair with him, while she could tolerate his fooling around, she wouldn’t accept an illegitimate child. So if she were pregnant, she couldn’t let the sugar daddy’s wife discover that the child was his. If the wife found out, the baby would never be born.”

Ye Xingbei frowned, “So she married an honest man, had him blissfully think he was going to be a father, to raise the child for her? That way her sugar daddy’s wife would think the child in her belly was her husband’s and wouldn’t suspect a thing about her sugar daddy.”
