Ye Xingbei felt like she could die, reaching out to strangle Gu Junzhu: “Gu Junzhu, why don’t you just drop dead!” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Gu Junzhu held back a laugh, grabbed her wrist to avoid actually being strangled, and said, “Think about it, I’m serious! Nowadays, casual relationships are normal! We’re a legally recognized couple. It’s completely reasonable and legal for us to sleep together, we can’t be accused or punished morally or legally because there’s no first wife to catch us cheating. It could be a marriage of pleasure, not love! It’s absolutely perfect!”

Ye Xingbei: “…Get lost!”

What was all this nonsense?

Her husband in name would be her bedmate?

What was the difference between that and getting formally married?

She just wanted to find a father for Xiao Shu, she didn’t thirst for a man to sleep with, right?

This bastard!

“Think about it again,” Gu Junzhu said in a deep, seductive voice, continuing his persuasion, “Baby, you’ve tried my skills, right? I’m good in bed and would be faithful to you. I’d never touch another woman. I’m absolutely clean, and you wouldn’t have to spend a penny on me. Isn’t that better than hiring a gigolo?”

Ye Xingbei felt like her head would explode out of anger. She thought she might start bleeding any second.

She gritted her teeth and said, “Who said I’m looking for a gigolo? I don’t need a gigolo! I would never look for a gigolo!”

“How come?” Gu Junzhu asked earnestly, “All normal women need a man, and so do you! If you don’t want to get married and have a husband, you should at least get a man to satisfy your basic physiological needs. If you’re not looking for a gigolo, then whom are you going to look for? Going to a bar or a nightclub to find a one-night stand? That’s too risky! An unknown man, do you know if he’s got any diseases? You’re just a girl, be careful. Don’t go looking for some random man.”

“I did not think about finding a one-night stand! I do not need a man! I do NOT need one!” Ye Xingbei felt like her teeth would be ground to powder, thinking she might die of anger tonight.

“All right, all right, you don’t need one, you don’t need it!” Seeing Ye Xingbei looking as if she were about to faint from anger, Gu Junzhu raised his hands in surrender, “Let’s discuss this another time. For now let’s talk about your biological brothers.”

Ye Xingbei’s attention was immediately drawn, “Right! Is it true what you said? My two biological brothers, they’re working against Jiang Zhengxing? Why? Isn’t Jiang Zhengxing their biological uncle? Even if they changed their last names to match our mother’s, it shouldn’t lead to them working against Jiang Zhengxing, right?”

“I’ve found out some things, but with no evidence, I can’t just go around spreading rumors…” Gu Junzhu saw that the girl had been diverted by his words and breathed a sigh of relief. He lay back in his position, no longer teasing her for fear she’d really run off in a huff, “If you want to know, you can ask them directly next time you meet. Meanwhile, I’ll continue to investigate.

If they don’t want to tell you, I’ll eventually find out the truth and let you know so you aren’t kept in the dark.”

“My two biological brothers are working against the Jiang Family and Jiang Zhengxing…why…” Ye Xingbei muttered to herself, feeling as though she was trapped in a fog, unable to see clearly.

Her biological father was the eldest son of the Jiang Family.

Her two brothers, one was the legitimate grandson of the eldest son, the other was the second son of the Jiang family.

Changing their father’s surname to their mother’s was something that they owed the Jiang family, they still felt guilty about it.. Why would they go to such lengths to work against the Jiang family?
