Chapter 117: Overthinking
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Focus on your food!” Gu Lian replied to Mo Yu in his heart. However, Mo Yu noticed that Gu Lian’s ears were red.
“Alright, Hubby. Yes, Hubby. I’m most obedient to my dear Hubby!” Mo Yu smiled in her heart and continued to annoy Gu Lian.
Gu Lian turned his head speechlessly, not wanting to pay attention to this person who had suddenly gone crazy.
This scene was witnessed by Yun Shu, who had been paying attention to Gu Lian all this time. Yun Shu breathed a sigh of relief and finally relaxed.
She knew that this marriage only existed in name!
It must be that Mo Yu was unilaterally Gu Lian’s bootlicker and tried to use the fact that she took care of Gu Lian for a long time to morally kidnap Gu Lian! And Gu Lian was forced to be helpless. In order not to bear the crime of being ungrateful, he was tied to Mo Yu!
Yun Shu looked at Gu Lian with heartache.
Gu Zi, who was busy picking up food, raised his head and met Yun Shu’s eyes. He was so frightened that goosebumps rose all over his body. He quickly ate the food in his bowl and prayed for his brother in his heart. He prayed that Buddha would protect his brother from being eaten by this female demon.
Gu Zi didn’t have a good impression of Yun Shu. At that time, he was still young and stuck to Gu Lian every day. However, after Yun Shu appeared, she barged into his and Gu Lian’s “private” world.
Every time he was alone with Gu Lian for a while, before he could even get his star student brother to help him with homework, Yun Shu would find an excuse to call Gu Lian away. There were a few times when Gu Zi couldn’t take it anymore. He went to ask her why she wanted to snatch his brother from him, but he was scared back by Yun Shu.
At that time, Yun Shu had not gone to a foreign country alone. She was a delicate young lady who did not do any chores.
She looked at Gu Zi, who was five years younger than her, and smiled disdainfully. Then, she told Gu Zi the process of falling in love, marriage, and death for two hours. To put it simply, she instilled in Gu Zi for two hours, “Your brother doesn’t want you anymore.”
At that time, Gu Zi was still in elementary school. He couldn’t even understand elementary mathematics. He was so frightened by Yun Shu that he ran home crying and asked Gu Lian to say that he was his only brother.
This incident had left an indelible psychological shadow in Gu Zi’s heart. Even now, he still subconsciously felt fear when he saw Yun Shu.
Yun Shu didn’t look at Gu Zi at all. She adjusted her expression and looked at Gu Lian, slowly sying, “Brother Gu Lian…”
The last syllable was like a winding mountain road that took 18 turns.
Her words gave Gu Zi, Gu Yu, and Mo Yu goosebumps. The elders of the two families stopped talking and looked at Yun Shu.
In an instant, everyone at the dining table only had one thought in their minds: What does this woman want to do again?
Yun Shu didn’t seem to realize that something was wrong. After attracting Gu Lian’s attention, she began her plan. First, she would use her memories to remind Gu Lian of their friendship from many years ago. Then, she would increase the physical contact between her and Gu Lian. Finally, she would use her beauty and talent to conquer Gu Lian and complete the plan!
“Brother Gu Lian, let me toast to you. To our friendship for so many years!” With that, Yun Shu picked up the wine glass and finished the baijiuQin one gulp.
Although Gu Lian didn’t know what Yun Shu wanted to do, he still cooperated and finished the alcohol in front of him.
Even if the deal fell through, the friendship was still there, he wouldn’t embarrass a girl at such a gathering.
Seeing Gu Lian finish his drink, Yun Shu continued.
Yun Shu was the type to get drunk easily. She had only drunk two glasses, but her face was already red and she looked dizzy.
“Brother Gu Lian, 1 haven’t seen you for so long. Why… why did you get into an accident?” Yun Shu seemed to want to put on a good show. She even squeezed out a few tears and tilted her head to look at Gu Lian.
“I remember that when we went to school together, you were always high-spirited. You loved sports and your grades were good. Every time there was a sports competition, you were the one who won an award. At that time, you were the class president and I was the vice president. The two of us worked together and had a special tacit understanding.”
Yun Shu seemed to be really drunk. As she recalled the past, her eyes gradually turned red. Coupled with her makeup, she looked like a pitiful young school belle, a pitiful supporting actress who could not be loved.
Gu Lian was still confused. He didn’t understand why Yun Shu was talking about these things.
