Chapter 26

The lake was beautiful, and the night breeze was gentle.

Huo Sicheng’s anger was enough to tear the world apart.

In the past, he had no right to question Gu Qingcheng about whatever she did.

Now that she had taken the initiative to propose to him, they got married.

Her heart, which had been silent for many years, rippled for her.

He thought that since she had proposed so sincerely, no matter how much she wanted him, she would at least restrain herself and not go overboard with him.

In the end, he was deceived by her and trusted her too much. In the end, his heart was trampled on by her and she treated him even more harshly than before.

“Young Master…” Seeing this, the driver, Ah Qing, rushed forward to stop him. “Please calm down.”

After returning from his vacation, he had already learned from the butler, Mr. Zhao, that his young master was married.

He knew how important Gu Qingcheng was to Huo Sicheng, so he had to stop this tragedy from happening.

“Get lost!” Huo Sicheng glared at Ah Qing with bloodshot eyes.

Ah Qing’s face was pale, and her body was trembling uncontrollably, but she did not make way.

“I can’t. Young Master, I know Madam is in the wrong,” he said firmly. “However, she is your wife now. Even if you see her hugging someone else, if you appear in front of her, she will be embarrassed.”

Before Huo Sicheng could react, he said, “You’ve been guarding her for so many years. Now that you’re finally husband and wife, she belongs to you alone. But now that you’ve appeared in front of her, your divorce is secondary. With her personality, not only will she hate you more than before, but she’ll also take revenge on you for the rest of her life. The worst thing is that you’ll lose her forever, and you’ll never be able to have her legally like you do now.”

Ah Qing’s words were like a knife to Huo Sicheng’s heart.

He was in so much pain that he wished he was dead.

He had her legally, but all he had was a marriage certificate, not her.

“No man can tolerate his wife hugging someone else’s man.” Ah Qing tried to persuade Huo Sicheng. “I believe you want to tear Madam apart right now, but this is an impulse, and an impulse is evil. You shouldn’t be controlled by an impulse. I beg you to calm down and think of a way to resolve this matter, not fight to the death.”

Veins bulged on Huo Sicheng’s forehead as he glared at Ah Qing. His thin lips were pursed into a thin line, and no one could tell what he was feeling.

Ah Qing looked in Gu Qingcheng’s direction. Seeing that she had left, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“Young Master, I’ll send you back to the villa.”

Huo Sicheng saw what Ah Qing was doing, and a cold light flashed in his scarlet eyes.

“To the office.”

Ah Qing was slightly stunned and drove to Huo Corporation.

Gu Qingcheng had no idea that Huo Sicheng had seen her being hugged by Qi Shaoze.

After kicking Qi Shaoze twice, she returned to the villa in a huff. She looked at him and said, “I’ll leave first. Don’t stay at my house. My teacher occasionally comes over to help me tidy up the house. If he sees you, I won’t be able to explain myself.”

Qi Shaoze sat on the sofa and leisurely poured himself a glass of wine.

“You’re so angry at the mention of Scumbag Qin. It’s obvious that the two of you broke up. I won’t ask why, but something must have happened to make you break up.” A sly look flashed across his eyes. “But if you don’t answer who you’re marrying, I won’t leave. I’ll chase after you every day and call you babe. When your teacher sees me, I’ll say that I’m your boyfriend.”

Gu Qingcheng’s hands were itching to punch Qi Shaoze.

However, when she saw the time, it would be very late when she returned to Wanmei Villa, so she did not want to waste time.

“Huo Sicheng,” she told Qi Shaoze. “I’m marrying Huo Sicheng.”

“Pfft…” Qi Shaoze spat out the wine in his mouth and stared at Gu Qingcheng in shock. “Your arch-enemy, Huo Sicheng?”

“Yes.” Gu Qingcheng quickly took two steps back to avoid being sprayed with alcohol by Qi Shaoze. Pointing at the ground, she said, “Wipe the floor clean before you leave, or I’ll hammer you to death.”

“Huo Sicheng is Qin Jun’s uncle. Won’t you become Qin Jun’s aunt if you marry him?” Qi Shaoze was shocked. “Why did you marry Huo Sicheng of all people?”

“Huo Sicheng is not my uncle.” Gu Qingcheng snorted. “I won’t marry anyone but Huo Sicheng. I only love and dote on him in this life.”

“You love him alone, yet you still quarrel with him?” Qi Shaoze said casually.

“I…” Gu Qingcheng was speechless at Qi Shaoze’s words.

“I knew you had a different way of thinking, but I didn’t expect you to marry your arch-enemy, Huo Sicheng.” Qi Shaoze looked at Gu Qingcheng as if she was a lunatic. “Don’t forget that you and Huo Sicheng were fighting to the death. The two of you have just gotten married and you’re already making such a fuss. In my opinion, it’s either you who becomes a widow or he becomes a widower.”

“Are you looking for a beating? How can you say that?” Gu Qingcheng glared at Qi Shaoze.

Qi Shaoze deliberately pinched his fingers to read his fortune. “I can tell from your physiognomy that you’re a widow. Huo Sicheng looks like a widower. He won’t have a good ending.”

Out of habit, Gu Qingcheng lifted her foot to kick Qi Shaoze, but she pulled it back and stormed out of the door.

Qi Shaoze’s mouth was full of nonsense, and she was too lazy to argue with him.

“Hey, aren’t you going to kick?” Qi Shaoze was surprised that Gu Qingcheng didn’t kick him away. He said, “I’m not used to not getting kicked.”

However, when he thought of Gu Qingcheng marrying Huo Sicheng, his eyes narrowed, and his gaze turned cold.

“Huo Sicheng, if you treat my precious Qingcheng badly, I will never let you off!”

Gu Qingcheng had already left, so she didn’t see Qi Shaoze, who was usually a joker in front of her, showing his tough and dangerous side.

It was already late at night when she rushed back to Wanmei Villa, but her bedroom was still empty.

“Where did Huo Sicheng go?” She opened a few doors in shock but still couldn’t find him.

On the way back, she thought about what Qi Shaoze had said.

Since she wanted to love him, why did she quarrel with him?

However, she did not quarrel with him on purpose. It was he who showed a bad attitude toward her first, and she was angry.

In the end, it was because her temper was not good enough. As a wife, she should be gentler to him.

Besides, he wouldn’t take out the energy document for her to sign for no reason. Something must have happened that caused him to misunderstand her.

Mr. Zhao looked at Gu Qingcheng, who was running around the room like a headless chicken, and said, “Miss Gu, what are you looking for?”

“Where’s Huo Sicheng?” Seeing Mr. Zhao so happy for the first time, Gu Qingcheng asked anxiously, “Where did he go? I can’t find him. Did he go to accompany Xuan’er? Where is her bedroom?”

Mr. Zhao heard Gu Qingcheng’s words, and a complicated look flashed across his eyes. He said, “The little master is already resting. Young Master is busy and is not in the villa.”

He had asked Young Master to chase after Gu Qingcheng, but she had come back safely. That meant that Young Master hadn’t been looking for her.

As for why he didn’t tell Gu Qingcheng, it was very simple that the young master had gone to look for her immediately after she left.

He had helped Gu Qingcheng many times over the past few days, considering his young master’s feelings.

Since she had returned safely tonight, the young master must have been busy and did not come back, so he chose not to tell her so as not to increase her arrogance.

Gu Qingcheng took out her cell phone and called Huo Sicheng, only to be notified that his phone was off.

She frowned. “Mr. Zhao, do you know where he went?

“It’s getting late. Miss Gu, rest early.” Mr. Zhao shook his head. “If you need anything, you can go to Huo Corporation tomorrow.”

Gu Qingcheng couldn’t get in touch with Huo Sicheng, and her heart ached.

Even if she wanted to find him now, she didn’t know where he was. She could only go to Huo Sicheng tomorrow.

“Mr. Zhao…” She called out to Mr. Zhao, who was about to leave. “I bought something and will deliver it tomorrow morning. Mr. Zhao, please don’t stop me.”

Mr. Zhao nodded and turned to leave.

That night, Gu Qingcheng couldn’t sleep. Her mind was filled with Huo Sicheng’s handsome face, but when she thought of the contempt in his eyes, she felt a sharp pain in her heart.

She only fell asleep in the morning. Not long after she slept, the things she bought arrived, so she had to get up and make the arrangements herself.

After some time, Gu Qingcheng’s phone rang. She saw that it was Qi Shaoze calling and answered the call.

“Babe, look at this morning’s trending news!” Qi Shaoze exclaimed.

Gu Qingcheng rolled her eyes. She didn’t have time to warn Qi Shaoze about not calling her babe again. She tapped on the web page and saw the trending searches.

With a bang, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her mind went blank as she looked at the news in shock.

“Are you and Huo Sicheng married?” Qi Shaoze asked Gu Qingcheng. “Where are you? What’s up with Huo Sicheng?”
