Chapter 144: Chapter 145: Did you cheat on me?

Gu Qichen began: “What, disappointed you? Xia Yangyang, I have told you, the word ‘divorce’ does not exist in my dictionary. I advise you to end things with Chen Yu, don’t force my hand.”

Chen Yu again!

Xia Yangyang couldn’t help it anymore: “Gu Qichen, can you stop using Chen Yu as an excuse? It was you who cheated first. You and Shen Manbing are about to get married, why expose our relationship? Are you looking for trouble?”

Gu Qichen frowned at Xia Yangyang: “Who said I was getting married to Shen Manbing?”

Speaking of this, Xia Yangyang felt wronged for no reason.

He still denies it.

Does he think she’s a fool?

How long is he planning to keep the secret?

Xia Yangyang blurted out: “I saw it with my own eyes. The day Shen Manbing was hospitalized, you went to see her and I went too. At the door, I heard her say that you married me to take revenge because she refused your proposal. At Lake Bay, you said you were on a business trip but in fact, you took a vacation with her. At Alexander’s masquerade ball, she publicly proposed to you, I saw it too, and you two… kissed. You two are already together, why treat me like a fool? Gu Qichen, I may be young, but it doesn’t mean I have zero self-respect.”

Xia Yangyang felt extremely wronged, but she still held back her tears.

What hurt her the most was being lied to again and again in love, being treated as a plaything.

Even though he already has another woman, he still puts on the image of a good man in front of her.

Lu Haotian did this, and so did Gu Qichen!

Gu Qichen was silent for two seconds before suddenly saying: “Since you were at the scene that day, didn’t you see me refuse Manbing’s proposal?”

Xia Yangyang was stunned.

That day, after she saw Shen Manbing stand up and lean in to kiss Gu Qichen…

She was dragged away from the scene by Chen Yu.

But what did Gu Qichen say?

He refused Shen Manbing’s proposal?

Gu Qichen vaguely guessed that the girl probably only caught the first half of the incident and left halfway through.

The media also omitted a part of the story, even though the news had long faded away.

But there were still many rumors about that proposal.

Gu Qichen explained seriously: “I declined that proposal on the spot. Also, I was on a business trip at Lake Bay that day. Shengyuan plans to develop another project there and my meeting with Manbing was purely coincidental. I didn’t know she would propose. As for that time at the hospital, it was my fault, I didn’t mention it to you. I did propose to Manbing, but that’s all in the past. Xia Yangyang, if you’re bothered about this, should I bring up your decade-long relationship with Lu Haotian?”

For some reason, Xia Yangyang felt guilty after Gu Qichen’s explanation.

Xia Yangyang didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

If it was true, then what had she been agonizing and suffering over these past few days?

Could it have just been a misunderstanding?

Gu Qichen had already stood up and approached Xia Yangyang.

With a cold expression, he said: “And you. You secretly went to Lake Bay with Chen Yu, then the two of you went to Europe for a ten-day vacation. Then you told me it was a reunion with an old friend, and that nonsense about Brother Yutou. Xia Yangyang, tell me the truth, did you cheat on me?”

Xia Yangyang was stunned.

She hurriedly shook her head and waved her hands: “No, Chen Yu and I are innocent.”

Gu Qichen advanced further: “Oh? But I heard he proposed to you a year ago?”

“I… I didn’t accept.”

“So it’s true?”

“He’s an orphan my mother has been sponsoring since childhood, he probably just wanted to repay the favor, I didn’t agree.”

“And what else didn’t you accept?”

“The… conf… confession.”

Gu Qichen had backed Xia Yangyang into a corner, so that there was nowhere else for her to go except the conference table.

Gu Qichen had already placed his hands on both sides of the table, completely encircling Xia Yangyang in his arms.

The two were so close, their breaths intertwined..
