Chapter 40

Since everyone had arrived, the dinner had officially started. Gu Yanzhi sat opposite Yu Fei and kept looking at her after he sat down.

Naturally, Feng Yi noticed his gaze. He glanced at Gu Yanzhi from the corner of his eyes, his gaze meaningful.

Yu Fei kept her head down and kept eating. It seemed that she was not interested in anything other than eating. In fact, there was a roar in her mind. She did not hear what these people were saying at all. All kinds of delicious food tasted like wax in her mouth. After an unknown period of time, she finally could not bear it anymore. She suddenly stood up and, under everyone’s astonished gaze, she smiled awkwardly and said, “I’m going to the washroom.”



The cold water splashed on her face. Yu Fei raised her head and looked at her pale face in the mirror. The corners of her mouth twitched.

‘Yu Fei, why are you still sad? From the moment you broke up, you had nothing to do with each other. He left so resolutely back then. He would rather believe other people’s words than you. Why do you still feel sad for a man like him? If he still has any feelings for you, he wouldn’t be with your sister. He doesn’t even care about your feelings, so why do you still take him seriously?’

However, no matter how she tried to persuade herself, the intimate scene of him and Yu Yuanyuan kept replaying in her mind.

‘Yu Fei, you’re so useless. Haven’t you been humiliated enough? The Gu Yanzhi of the past is long dead, and now he is a stranger. Why are you feeling so guilty? Why are you trying to escape? He was wrong, not you!’

However, the resolute words from back then still echoed in her ears. ‘Yu Fei, let’s just pretend that we’ve never met. Don’t see each other again. I was blind back then, but I won’t be blind for the rest of my life. Let’s break up! I don’t want to see you again. Please don’t appear in front of me.’

Yu Fei clearly remembered that it was raining outside that day. She ran to the Gu Family to find him and was drenched. She cried and begged him not to leave her. She was in a sorry state. At that time, she had treated him as the most important person in her life. When he said that he was leaving, her entire world collapsed. After they broke up, she fell seriously ill and only came back to life after a month of being a zombie. After she was admitted to the hospital, she did not look for Gu Yanzhi again. After that, she heard that he had gone abroad. When they met again, he became Yu Yuanyuan’s boyfriend. It was really ironic!

When Yu Fei came out of the bathroom, she saw Gu Yanzhi standing outside.

He walked towards her, his handsome face suppressing his anger as he said in a low voice, “Little Fei, let’s have a talk.”

“Mr. Gu, I don’t think we have anything to talk about.” Yu Fei’s heart skipped a beat. Her heart beat a few times, but she quickly recovered.

“Please step aside,” she said coldly.

Gu Yanzhi stood in front of her and did not move. He frowned and his eyes were full of anger. “How do you know Feng Yi? What’s your relationship with him?”

Was he questioning her? And still so self-righteous? Yu Fei was stunned for a moment, then she burst out laughing and sneered. “Mr. Gu, who are you to question me? Do you think I need to answer you?”

What a joke, who did he think he was? They had already broken up for a few years, and now he was still asking about her private life!

Gu Yanzhi was stunned. She seemed to have really treated him as a stranger. She kept calling him ‘Mr. Gu’. Even her eyes were like she was looking at a stranger. The anger that he had been suppressing all this time burst out. His face darkened, and he pressed her shoulder and pressed her against the wall.

His strong arms wrapped around Yu Fei’s body. His gentle eyes emitted a dangerous light. He gritted his teeth and said, “Feng Yi’s keeping you? Is money that important to you? For money, you would sell everything you have? Yu Fei, you haven’t changed a bit after so many years!”

Unable to tell whether he was angry or jealous, Gu Yanzhi completely lost his mind and shouted, “If you’re so short on money, why don’t you just sell yourself to me? Since it doesn’t matter to you if you have another man, you’ll be able to earn a penny more. How much did Feng Yi give you? A million, ten million, or a hundred million?”

Yu Fei raised her head and looked at him in disbelief. “Gu Yanzhi, what did you say?”

Gu Yanzhi’s eyes were red with anger. He sneered and said, “It doesn’t matter who you sell it to. What’s the difference between sleeping with someone once and sleeping with someone a hundred times?”

This time, Yu Fei heard it clearly. She was stunned at first, but looking at Gu Yanzhi’s twisted face, she slowly curled her lips and sneered. She enunciated each word clearly. “You’re right. It doesn’t matter who I sell myself to, but Gu Yanzhi… Even if I wanted to sell myself, I could choose my sugar daddy. If I can get close to Feng Yi, do you think I’d fall for you?”
