Chapter 294: You Just Hope She’s Gu Family’s Daughter- in-law
Translator: 549690339
Xia Yangyang spoke with an almost definitive tone, “Shen Shichuan, I haven’t been disgraced or defeated. But your actions can’t be hidden any longer.”
The color of Shen Shichuan’s face shifted instantly.
He seemed to take a step forward out of the shadows, “What are you saying? Are you and Manbing putting on a show?”
Xia Yangyang nodded, “Yes, everything today was just a grand play directed by us.”
“I don’t believe you have the capability to manipulate the Film Festival.”
“I indeed don’t. But your sister, Shen Manbing, does. She and the Global President Cui Chenghao are close friends. When she asks for his help, he readily agrees. Even if it means stirring up drama, he doesn’t hesitate.”
The color of Shen Shichuan’s face gradually darkened.
That guy Cui Chenghao, after all these years, still can’t help but meddle.
“How could Xiao Bing collude with you?”
“I suppose, this is the only thing you couldn’t anticipate, because you believe her to be proud and arrogant, thinking I am the person she detests the most. But, I never told her that I initially suspected you to be the mastermind behind all this. Even if I did tell her, she wouldn’t believe me, so, she had to see and hear everything for herself.”
Upon saying this.
Xia Yangyang suddenly turned around, “Come out.”
Shen Shichuan’s heart skipped a beat.
Shen Manbing and Gu Qichen emerged from behind the large screen together.
Shen Manbing, with a complex expression, had arrived at Shen Shichuan’s side.
Shen Shichuan’s normally calm and approachable face began to crumble, “Didn’t you go back to the hotel already?”
“I did go back, only to return straight away. Yangyang said she would take me to see an exciting show.”
Shen Shichuan glanced at Gu Qichen with a grave expression, “You were involved too.”
Gu Qichen’s voice was apathetic, “They were the directors, I was simply a bystander.”
Shen Manbing looked at him in disbelief, “Brother, why are you doing this?”
“Because I can’t bear to see you wallowing in despair over a man. You are always aggressive outside, but when you are alone, you are as quiet as a shadow. I wanted to help you reclaim everything that was yours.”
Shen Manbing felt torn.
Previously, she hated Xia Yangyang with a passion.
Because she stole her love, because she suddenly became Mrs. Gu.
Shen Manbing felt that Xia Yangyang stole what was rightfully hers.
She was even resentful towards her loving elder brother for treating Xia Yangyang differently, but she had no idea that these were traps set by Shen Shichuan for her sake.
Shen Manbing felt deeply saddened.
But Shen Shichuan suddenly pointed his spear at Gu Qichen, “Ah Chen, do you remember our promise? You said you would take good care of Manbing for me, but you broke your word. People who break promises must pay a price.”
Gu Qichen’s voice was icy but firm, “I’ve never hid anything from you about my feelings. I saw you as my most trusted friend. But Shen Shichuan, you destroyed my marriage and set up all of this. Even if you succeed, even if Yangyang and I divorce, and I marry Manbing, will we be happy? Once certain people appear in your life, it’s because they’re meant to. Yangyang came into my life, Manbing and I missed our best moment. Once missed, it can’t be regained. You are too extreme.”
Shen Shichuan’s face was grim, a stark contrast to his usual demeanor.
But Gu Qichen’s voice was still cold and calm, “Actually, you don’t care whether we love each other or not. You want Manbing to marry me, all because you want her to be part of the Gu Family.”
