Chapter 218 - 219: I’m not as despicable as you think!
At that time, Xia Yangyang had already returned to her room.
Gu Qichen followed her in.
The two started arguing.
Gu Mingzhu saw what was happening and came over.
Seeing that Gu Mingzhu was approaching, Xia Yangyang no longer quarrelled with Gu Qichen.
Gu Mingzhu asked, “What’s going on between you two? You were fine moments ago, why are you fighting?”
Xia Yangyang remained silent.
Gu Qichen then said, “Sister, we’re leaving.”
Having said that, he took Xia Yangyang’s hand and started to head outside.
As they walked, Xia Yangyang struggled to free herself from Gu Qichen’s grip.
The two were clearly at odds with each other again.
During this time, Gu Zhaohan also entered the room.
Gu Mingzhu noticed that Gu Zhaohan also looked off, and she called out to him a few times but he seemed to not hear her and went straight upstairs.
Gu Mingzhu clearly creased her brows.
Once they got in the car, Xia Yangyang remained silent all the way.
Gu Qichen also wore a thunderous expression.
Finally, Xia Yangyang couldn’t hold back any longer and asked, “Gu Qichen, why did you say what you did earlier, don’t you trust me? How am I supposed to face Gu Zhaohan in the future? What do you want him to think?”
Suddenly, Gu Qichen slammed on the brakes.
The car came to a stop on the side of the road.
His voice was icy as he said, “How can I trust you when you still consider him at every turn?”
Xia Yangyang was stunned as she said, “Not because I’m considerate of him, I just can’t understand why you would have such thoughts. What have I done to make you think that my relationship with Gu Zhaohan is ambiguous? If you want to accuse me, you need evidence. Your baseless accusation, I cannot accept.”
Xia Yangyang felt that she had known Gu Qichen for quite some time now.
He was not a petty person, nor was he someone who would be jealous of his own nephew.
This was utterly absurd.
What was the reason that caused Gu Qichen to view her in this manner?
“Evidence, you need evidence? Doesn’t your behavior in recent days explain everything?”
Xia Yangyang was enraged. What exactly had she done?
Gu Qichen was simply making unfounded accusations at her.
Especially the way he spoke now, cold and harsh, as if he was absolutely certain of his accusations.
As if no matter how Xia Yangyang defended herself he wouldn’t believe her.
Besides, there was no such thing happening in the first place, why should she need to defend herself?
Suddenly, Xia Yangyang didn’t want to talk about it anymore. A feeling of indescribable grievance welled up in her heart.
“Gu Qichen, I’m done trying to prove my innocence to you. Clear-minded people will see the truth. Speaking is apparently pointless,” she said.
“Xia Yangyang, starting from today, you are not allowed to approach Xiao Han anymore,” Gu Qichen said after a few seconds of silence.
What chilled Xia Yangyang was the fact that he was using a tone that was close to a warning.
Approaching Gu Zhaohan?
So in Gu Qichen’s heart, he didn’t just think their relationship was ambiguous, but that she was the one actively seeking the closeness?
Or should I say, did Gu Qichen think she was seducing him?
Yes, since he’s made up his mind that there’s something going on between them, and Gu Zhaohan, with his aloof personality, certainly wouldn’t have initiated it.
That leaves only one possibility, that she initiated the advances, that she seduced Gu Zhaohan!
Xia Yangyang could hardly believe it and wanted to laugh.
Almost shouting, Xia Yangyang said, “Gu Qichen, I’m not as despicable as you think!”
Having said that, Xia Yangyang opened the car door and ran off.
Gu Qichen didn’t chase after her!
