Even if this woman's appearance was plain and simple, she was still too dazzling and captivating. Furthermore, Huo Yunzheng had once liked her so much, she was truly … He couldn't completely be at ease!

Hearing her probing tone and probing gaze, Gu Yi's heart involuntarily thumped. Before her brain could even react, his mouth had already opened to answer: "I just arrived in the afternoon because the company sent me on a business trip, so I naturally haven't seen it before."

No woman would wish for their boyfriend to have anything to do with their ex, let alone this one. It was truly dramatic, full of mistakes.

That necklace was personally gifted to her by Su Mutong when she was twelve years old, and she had even helped her put it on.

She had worn it for six years and had long treated it as her own. This was why she had only nodded her head without hesitation when Huo Yunzheng had asked her if she was the owner of the necklace.

At that time, she didn't understand that he was looking for someone, and she didn't even know that she had stolen his identity.

But to take a step back, if that necklace was so precious and related to the secret of her background, how could Su Mutong give it to him so easily?

Every time she thought about this matter, Gu Yi would always feel that she was a fool, and would feel especially aggrieved in her heart.

However, she couldn't explain the entire situation to Huo Yunzheng, because she was already certain that the man wouldn't listen, nor would he believe her …

"Xiao Yi, you still like Brother Huo, right?"

He spoke so straightforwardly and firmly, as if he was answering the question without any hesitation.

Su Mutong stared into her eyes with her bright black eyes, trying to catch any trace of her thoughts. She even wanted to burn a hole in her face.

Gu Yi coughed lightly, feeling a little uncomfortable, she anxiously denied: "How could that be, five years ago was a misunderstanding. Now that he's your boyfriend, how could I have any ill intentions towards him?"

Not that she still liked it, but she still loved it.

The person who was able to stand beside him in name was Su Mutong, not her. If not for that necklace, as the lowest and most lowly orphan of society, how could she have gotten entangled with such a man?

She only knew that whether it was the past or the future, Huo Yunzheng was both too far away from her reach. That thought, he just wanted to keep it in his heart, never wanting to be able to take it out for real, and never wanting to realize it.

Even if she was Qiqi's biological father!

Gu Yi secretly made up hhermind to squeeze Huo Yunzheng out of his heart, but when she thought of this decision, his heart felt as if it was dried up by the stench.

Su Mutong would not believe her answer, but she would not reveal it. She lightly walked to her side, put her arm around her shoulder and smiled as she said, "That's great. I was also worried that if you still liked her, the three of us would be in a difficult situation. After all, you are my best sister, and he, will also be my husband."

"…"

Gu Yi embarrassedly swallowed her saliva. She didn't know what to say in that moment and could only smile foolishly.

Just then, Su Mutong let go of her shoulder, walked to the sink and looked in the mirror, after carefully fixing her makeup, she turned and smiled at her enchanting: "Alright, I have to go. Brother Huo was worried after being out for too long. Oh right, Xiao Yi, this is my name card, contact me when you are free! "

As she said that, she took out a card with a rose edge from her bag and handed it over to Gu Yi. Taking the opportunity while she was looking down at the card, she fiercely glared at her and turned to leave.

After she left, Gu Yi held onto the name card with both of her hands, feeling as if all her strength had been sucked out of her body, she leaned on the wall and slowly slid down.

She had never felt so helpless.

She painfully closed her eyes. She clearly knew that Su Mutong was the one who said those words to show how happy she was, but she still pierced her heart with needles and sentences. There was no blood that flowed.

It hurt, really hurt. The man she loved would sooner or later turn into a man with a head full of white hair, yet this man loved her so much.

She repeatedly told herself in her heart, Gu Yi, you don't have the qualifications to be in pain …

In order to avoid meeting Huo Yunzheng directly, he met him in the washroom. After returning, Gu Yi wanted to take a step ahead of her using the excuse that her body was unwell. Seeing that, Lu Yiyuan immediately paid to go with her.

Once back in her hotel room, she kicked off her high heels and tossed her bag onto the sofa. After pouring himself a cup of warm water and gulping it down, he found that his heart was stifled, so he took his bathrobe into the washroom.

He didn't know when he got into this habit, but it was probably after he grew up. When her mood was so bad that it couldn't be relieved, she liked to take a hot bath. It seemed that once she sank to the bottom of the hot water, all her unpleasantness would be isolated from the water, and all her worries would vanish.

When she finished bathing, it was already two hours later. Gu Yi walked out reluctantly while wiping her hair.

The phone rang. Who could it be this late at night? Gu Yi lazily glanced at the screen and was startled. It was actually Director Li from Lu’s Group.

Gu Yi immediately pressed the answer button, and politely said: "Good evening, Boss Li. Is there any progress in the contract? "

Looking at his watch, it was already past ten o'clock, and Director Li still called? Gu Yi was a little surprised, could it be that the contract was already signed? Right, why else would he call me so late?

"Cough, my apologies Miss Gu, I'm sorry for disturbing you. I'm sorry, the main reason I called you was to tell you that the contract with your company cannot be signed. "

"Ah?" Chairman Lu disagrees? "

Hearing the bad news brought by his guilty voice, the first reason Gu Yi thought about it was because the Chairman Lu didn't agree.

Director Li was quite generous. He did not find any excuses or cover up and admitted it directly.

Gu Yi did not give up and continued to ask: "Then is it convenient for Director Li to tell me the reason?"

"Miss Gu, this matter …"

Sigh, in truth, this was obviously the trump card his father had used to stop his son from chasing after the girl!

Otherwise, how could the big chairman of his family, who did all the work at home, personally go over such a small case?

One of them was the current leader of the Lu’s Group, and the other was the future successor of the Lu’s Group, he couldn't afford to offend any of them.

Just how could he say that to Miss Gu?

"Director Li, please. "Just tell me, the company values their cooperation with your company so much. Since this matter has gone bad, I have to give a reason so that I can explain it to the company."
