Chapter 2 The Most Familiar Stranger (2)

  This news report caused a stir as soon as it was broadcast in the daytime, and even Old Master Gu called to question me.

  The Gu's Group is a giant in the domestic jewelry industry, and as the president of Gu's Group, Gu Xicheng has always been in the spotlight in A City, with his scandals supporting many large and small gossip magazines. Although there are countless women around him, from socialites to artists, it is the first time that news of his divorce and relationship with an artist outside has been made public.

  Qin Mishu stood at one end of the sofa, with his hands behind his back, looking at the news with a serious and solemn expression on his face.

  Gu Xi Cheng's thin lips, as sharp as a knife blade, were tightly pursed, coldly staring at the woman on the screen. "Didn't you tell him to let it go? She still dares to spout nonsense outside?"

  "She's got a death wish." Secretary Qin said, "A few months ago I personally asked her to go to the hospital, I reckon she secretly kept it and now she's blackmailing Young Master into marriage in front of the media."

  "One night, get all this settled for me."

  "Of course, young master."

  Qin Mishu nodded and then glanced at the figure standing at the entrance of the stairs, before exiting the hall with his bodyguards and servants.

  The surroundings quieted down, and the man on the sofa directly picked up the remote control and switched to a financial channel. He also picked up the newspaper on the table and started reading it. For someone who was highly efficient at multitasking, this was effortless. The sounds from the TV and the content he saw with his eyes could be completely absorbed by him without missing anything, including another figure in the hall that did not escape his peripheral vision...

  But he didn't glance sideways, his perfectly arched profile was as cold as a rain of ice, without any temperature.

  In the grand hall, Wen Ying stood far away on the stairs opposite, watching him busy, watching him instruct the servants, and after they all left, she didn't hear what they said, but waited until he should have finished his work before nervously carrying the tray of tea over.

  Her footsteps were light, like a ballet dancer on tiptoes, approaching him quietly without making any sound, but as she got closer to him, her heart was getting more and more nervous.

  The wealthy and powerful husband who is near yet far away from her is the most familiar stranger to her.

  "I... have already signed, I won't stand in your way."

  She said softly and then backed away.

  It was a loveless marriage, she understood it, and she didn't dare ask for anything more.

  Wen's eyes couldn't help but feel a little sour, just as she was about to go back to her room to pack up. The TV in the living room behind her suddenly stopped, and a man's voice came from behind, clear and loud, "Stop."

  Her eyes dimmed and her footsteps slowed down, as if her feet were suddenly heavy with lead. For this overbearing man, she had always been submissive, never arguing or explaining herself.

  She leaned against the stair railing and slowly turned around, looking at him.

  A handsome man, as if a god from heaven, elegantly walked through the hall and stood in front of her. His eyes were icy cold as he stared at her for a moment before decisively slamming the divorce agreement back to her. "Don't forget who begged me to help the Wen family get out of trouble in the first place! You want to leave? Wait until Wusuo wakes up, then you can get lost!"

  The papers rustled as they fell from her body, Wen Tong took a deep breath and calmed down, "It was sent by Miss Lin Ya Li, I've done it according to your wishes—— Ahh!!" Before she could finish speaking, both sides of her cheeks were suddenly pinched violently.

  She was forced to look up at him, and what she saw was a perfect yet terrifying man's face, with eyes full of frost, cold enough to make one tremble.
