“I’ll go find her!” Gu Ziye said.
Hearing that, Ye Nanshen slowly opened his eyes. A calm expression remained in his eyes even when he saw the disheveled Gu Yuyan, though a hint of surprise flickered briefly.
Ye Nanshen didn’t say anything in response.
Gu Yuyan held onto Gu Ziye’s arm, but her gaze was fixed on Ye Nanshen. Her eyes were filled with stubbornness.
“Is she always so unreasonable? Is the injury on your face also her doing?” Gu Ziye asked.
Gu Yuyan’s reminder made everyone notice a scratch on Ye Nanshen’s chin.
Ye Nanshen’s gaze flickered slightly, but he didn’t speak. He had no memory of getting injured himself, and he assumed the scratch was from his confrontation with Rong Qi during his episode.
“She has always been gentle and reasonable, did you know?” Ye Nanshen said.
‘Gentle and reasonable?’ Everyone, including the scratched-up Gu Ziye and Lu Chengzhou, was filled with questions. They thought, ‘Were these descriptions derogatory terms when used to describe her?’
Hearing Ye Nanshen’s defense, Gu Yuyan gave a cold laugh and said, “Huh, but do you know, Ye Nanshen? All her gentleness and rationality are just a facade, all lies to deceive you. The injury on my face was caused by her, and the water on me was splashed by her!”
“What?! Did Rong Qi do this?!” Gu Ziye was immediately angered. “Damn, this woman is going too far! She’s using her strength to bully people everywhere!”
Gu Ziye walked around and said in anger, “Shen, 1 used to tolerate Rong Qi everywhere because of your face. But now she’s bullying my sister. 1 have to demand an explanation from her. Don’t stop me, 1 can’t stand it anymore!”
Ye Nanshen’s expression remained unchanged.
Lu Chengzhou voluntarily became Ye Nanshen’s translator and said, “Ziye, calm down first. Let’s first find out what exactly happened. How could Rong Qi randomly attack someone? Could there be a misunderstanding between Rong Qi and Miss Gu that led to a conflict?”
Gu Yuyan cried pitifully, “Chengzhou, you’ve known me for so long. Even if there’s a misunderstanding, how could I, with my personality, get into conflicts with others? Besides, do you think I slapped myself to get this injury?”
“Yeah, Lu Chengzhou, you didn’t see her talking nonsense. Why are you taking sides?” Gu Ziye complained. “Now my sister is hurt, and she’s being bullied and wronged. Rong Qi must apologize today and pay the price. Otherwise, where should the face of our family be?”
Bringing the Gu family into the matter meant Rong Qi was in for trouble.
Lu Chengzhou didn’t speak anymore after being scolded by Gu Ziye. However, Lu Chengzhou still believed that they should first understand the truth before resolving the conflict. Otherwise, it would be too hasty.
After all, Rong Qi was still a part of the family. Lu Chengzhou wasn’t choosing sides. Moreover, women’s affairs were inherently complicated. He hated women more than anything in his life, including his mother, except for Litter Qiqi.
“Ye Nanshen, are you just going to watch as that woman bullies me? Are you indifferent to all this? Do you know that she’s not really in love with you? She even called you a cripple and disabled, saying you can’t provide her with the life she wants. I only spoke up for you a little, but she suddenly went crazy, slapped me, and told me to stay away from you. Ye Nanshen, I haven’t thought that we can start over, and I’m not asking for your forgiveness. But I can’t stand seeing someone else take advantage of you!” said Gu Yuyan.
Gu Yuyan cried her heart out, “I’ve been beaten and wronged. It’s okay to suffer a bit if it makes you see the real face of that woman. Ye Nanshen, 1 only care about you..”
