Chapter 178 - The Bastard Is Senior

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Qiao Xi was extremely aggrieved in her heart and wanted to make Gu Zheng unhappy, so she shouted, “If it weren’t for me marrying you, I might have married Senior instead. He’s very good to me.”

Gu Zheng smirked.

Qiao Xi instantly choked.

The damned man was actually a little happy?

Why was he not jealous? Or did he not care at all?

Qiao Xi felt that she was like a clown at this moment.

Qiao Xi sighed. “I’ve known Senior for ten years. Even though I’ve married you now, my feelings for him can’t be replaced by anyone. Don’t vainly think of taking his place in my heart.”

Gu Zheng was calm and collected. Afraid that Qiao Xi’s mouth would go dry from talking, he even handed her a glass of water.

Wait!

Qiao Xi was stunned. Not only was this man not jealous but he was also interested in this topic.

Qiao Xi gnashed her teeth. “Even if Senior doesn’t acknowledge me, he’s still in my heart. Don’t think that just because I married you, I have to keep a distance from Senior. Do… Do you hear that?”

“Mhm…” Gu Zheng dragged out his words with a hint of teasing in his voice. His eyes were filled with smiles.

“You like your senior?” It seemed to be a question, but his tone was firm.

Qiao Xi did not perceive the hidden meaning behind his words and blurted out, “Right! I like Senior. Actually, it can’t be said that I like him. I love him…”

Someone pushed the door open and walked in.

Zhou Guanjin was wearing a suit and had a smile on his face. “You’re all here!”

He sat down and suddenly felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was very strange, so he asked probingly, “What’s going on? I originally wanted to bring my junior to look for you. But you’re very busy with work, so you might not have time.”

Gu Zheng remained calm and collected.

Qiao Xi noticed something strange from Zhou Guanjin’s words.

She took a sip of water and heard Zhou Guanjin say, “Senior, I should be the one to introduce you guys today. Why did the two of you meet yourselves?”

…

Wait!

Senior?

Her hand went weak and the cup fell to the floor. Water splashed everywhere.

Qiao Xi was dumbstruck. “Who did you say he is?”

Zhou Guanjin hurriedly picked up a tissue to wipe his pants. “He’s your senior!”

Qiao Xi rubbed her ears to confirm that she had not misheard.

Her face was ashen with shock.

Her mind was blank, and she felt as though everything was a dream.

Qiao Xi raised her eyes to look at Gu Zheng, then recalled what she had just said. She asked in disbelief, “Are you sure he’s Mo Yuan?”

Zhou Guanjin was puzzled. “Of course, your senior is Mo Yuan. And he already knows that you’re Black Tide.”

Gu Zheng smirked, his eyes were glinting like stars. He said casually, “Junior, I heard you like me the most?”

The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth twitched while her expression froze. “…”

She was about to vomit blood.

Qiao Xi abruptly stood up, her face filled with horror as her voice trembled. “You’re Mo Yuan?!”

Gu Zheng chuckled. “Huh, you don’t believe me?”

Zhou Guanjin had no idea what was going on between the two of them. He said excitedly, “Black Tide, I knew that you would find it hard to believe. I was also shocked for a long time when I found out.”

Qiao Xi: “…”

It was not just a shock. It was…

Gu Zheng’s thin lips parted slightly. “Black Tide, you said that you like me a lot and love me a lot. What else?”

Qiao Xi choked.

Before Zhou Guanjin came in, she did not know that Gu Zheng was her senior, so she said a lot of shameless things.

She originally wanted to anger Gu Zheng and express her love for her senior in front of him to see if he would be angry.

No wonder Gu Zheng was not angry at all and was even a little happy. It turned out that the person she had confessed to was Gu Zheng.

Zhou Guanjin was excited. “Junior! You’ve confessed? But aren’t you already married? Your husband is so pitiful!”

Qiao Xi choked, then closed her eyes and gnashed her teeth. “I was talking nonsense. Do you think I’m crazy? I won’t say such things again! Gu Zheng, consider me blind!”

Gu Zheng snorted.

Just then, Qiao Xi’s phone rang. It was Song Shiyu’s voice. “Young Madam! Young Master has helped you solve the matter of Qiao Rou and Fan Wenyuan maligning you. The shareholders have all voted to expel Qiao Rou. Qiao Corporation won’t accept her anymore.”

Qiao Xi’s eyes lit up.

She originally wanted Qin An to slowly help her deal with Qiao Rou.

Who would have thought that Gu Zheng would have already resolved it and saved her from having to worry about it?

Gu Zheng said slowly, “Qiao Rou’s expulsion is just the beginning. Gu Corporation will continue to pressure her in the future, so what do you think you should do now?”

Her words from earlier echoed in her mind, and she smiled slightly awkwardly.

She did not care about getting humiliated. After all, he was her husband..
