Chapter 982: Chapter 986: How Does Your Husband Put Up With You? Chapter 982: Chapter 986: How Does Your Husband Put Up With You? “I understand,” Ye Xingbei nodded. “That’s why he was deceived by that woman.”
“Yes,” Gu Junzhu said. “Originally, he had the opportunity to have that woman sentenced to a much harsher punishnt, starting from at least ten years, but he gave up. He didn’t provide more evidence to the court. He said that letting that woman reflect in prison for two years was enough. Ten years would an the best decade of that woman’s life would be spent behind bars, ruining her life. He couldn’t bear to do that.”
“That woman is truly blind,” Ye Xingbei sighed. “To not want such a good man is foolish. Not only did she fail him, but she also frad him. It’s just too stupid.”
Gu Junzhu chuckled, “Back then, when he refused to provide more evidence to accuse that woman, his friends were quite frustrated with his lack of competitiveness. They thought he was too soft-hearted and shouldn’t have let that woman off the hook. As his friends, they were upset with his decision, like watching iron not turn into steel. But for , trusting soone like him is much easier than soone ruthless. At the very least, I don’t have to worry about him betraying or turning on .”
He chuckled again, “Of course, there are concerns too. I have to make sure soone keeps an eye on him, so he doesn’t make the sa mistake and gets deceived again. He seems aloof, but he’s actually quite naive and easily trusts others.”
Ye Xingbei lanted, “Then following a master like you with seventy-two tricks up your sleeve is the perfect match for him. The two of you can complent each other!”
“Hmm?” Gu Junzhu raised an eyebrow at her. “I have seventy-two tricks up my sleeve?”
Ye Xingbei: “Uh…”
She had accidentally said what was ant to be kept in her heart!
Thankfully, she only ntioned the seventy-two tricks up Fifth Lord of Gu’s sleeve and not that Fifth Lord of Gu’s tricks were darker than anthracite.
She wrapped her arms around Gu Junzhu’s waist to smooth things over. “I was praising you for being smart, praising you for having a heart as exquisite as an intricate puzzle!”
The car slowed down and ca to a gentle stop.
The partition in the middle of the car rose slowly, and Gu Chi turned to look at the two of them. “Young Master, Young Madam, we’ve arrived.”
Ye Xingbei let go of the hand that was around his waist and sat up straight.
Gu Junzhu pinched her nose, “I’ll let it go. We’ll settle this at ho tonight!”
Ye Xingbei’s heart skipped a beat. She made a face at him and got out of the car.
After getting out of the car, she looked around to see if anyone was paying attention to her and discreetly blew a kiss to Gu Junzhu.
Gu Junzhu looked at her with a smile, his eyes tender and doting. “I’ll pick you up at nine. Have fun.”
Ye Xingbei nodded. “Alright, be careful on the road.”
She stood there until the car started up again, rged into the traffic, and disappeared from view, then she turned and entered the restaurant.
She found the private room Yian Jingxue had reserved and knocked on the door to enter.
As soon as Yian Jingxue saw her, she imdiately got up and hugged her, wailing, “Beibei, you’ve finally co. You heartbreaker, how could you fall out of love so quickly? While I’m still in my youthful pri, you’ve found soone new. What will I do when I’m old and faded?”
Ye Xingbei: “…Drama queen, take a break. Even if you act well, there won’t be any awards!”
Yian Jingxue let go of her and pouted, “You have a man, yet you’re still no fun. How does your husband put up with you?”
Ye Xingbei: “…It’s who’s putting up with him, okay?”
Handling a man with seventy-two dark tricks up his sleeve is not sothing just any woman can endure, okay?
“You’re just acting coy after getting a bargain!” Yian Jingxue pulled her hand and they sat down at the dining table. “The best-looking man in Beijing! I’d be over the moon just to be allowed to worship him daily, let alone have him as my husband!”
