Gu Yusheng continuously called Qin Jiayan a gigolo, which made Qin Zhiâai uncomfortable. She frowned and couldnât help but defend Qin Jiayan. âHeâs not a gigolo. Heâs not my toy boy either. Itâs not what you think. Heâ¦â
After saying these words, Qin Zhiâai suddenly realized that at that time, she was Liang Doukou. She couldnât tell him that Qin Jiayan was her brother.
She stopped and thought for a while. Then, she came up with another explanation, âHeâs just my friend!â
A friend? Friends can be so intimate? Does she think Iâm a fool?
To Gu Yusheng, those words seemed to be Qin Zhiâaiâs protection of that man. The anger that he had tried to control suddenly increased.
He knew that at that time, his anger had reached the highest level. He was afraid that he would become irrational if he vented his anger. Therefore, he tried to control it. He had never tried so hard before to control his temper. Finally, he avoided her and turned around to look at something else. After a while, he managed to calm down and walked to the long table, reached out, and picked up the necklaces one by one to examine them.
Qin Zhiâai was unable to figure out what Gu Yushengâs behavior meant, just as she couldnât understand why he had done those things after seeing her with Qin Jiayan.
He didnât like Liang Doukou at all, but all his reactions pointed to jealousyâ¦
From his words, she could be sure that he hadnât monitored her, so there were two possibilities. One was that someone had told him that she was with another man. The other was that he had happened to see them.
He seldom goes out for dinner. Maybe heâs not jealous, but he feels like heâs losing face in front of his friends after seeing me with Jiayan. Now, heâs punishing meâ¦
Suddenly, Qin Zhiâai felt a little regret that in order to save time and meet Jiayan as quickly as possible, she hadnât changed to her own appearance.
As Qin Zhiâai, it was easy to be honest, but as Liang Doukou, it was hard to explain.
However, no matter how hard it was, she would explain.
âHeâs an important friend to me, only a friend. Weâre not having an illicit affairâ¦â
Upon hearing that, Gu Yusheng, who was holding a pearl necklace, paused for a second, then seemed to hear nothing and put down the necklace, picking up another diamond one.
âMeeting him was just a gathering with a friend. And a few days ago, it happened to be my birthday, so he gave me a birthday gift⦠There is no love affair with himâ¦â
He and me, he and me. In so simple a sentence, how many times has she said âme and himâ?
I just wanted to select a necklace for her. Iâll let her off if she wears the necklace I select. I can let her off, but why does she keep saying âhe and meâ?
Holding the diamond necklace, Gu Yushengâs fingers trembled slightly. When she mentioned âhe and meâ the third time, he couldnât help throwing the diamond necklace onto the ground. Then he turned to Qin Zhiâai and shouted at her, âShut up! I donât want to know anything about you and him!â
