Chapter 43 Let’s try

Author: Nan Ruoruo

Gu Yanci once told Li Changfeng that his parents were able to successfully divorce at that time because Gu Yun was busy with the company during that time, and his mother was able to find the opportunity to deal with the issue of property division.

But he didn't tell the truth.

The main reason why we were able to agree on the division of property in the first place was actually not this, but—Gu Yun cheated.

The person he cheated on was Gu Xuanlang’s mother, Xiao Xiurong.

Xiao Xiurong is not a beautiful person. He is divorced and has a son.

But she can act coquettishly, is thick-skinned enough, and has soft knees, so she can eat Gu Yun to death.

Although Gu Yanci's mother looks beautiful, her personality is too strong.

Besides, her marriage to Gu Yun was ordered by her parents, and there was no relationship between them at all.

Gu Yanci and her mother were not surprised by Gu Yun's cheating.

Both mother and son were very calm at the time, thinking that they could use this leverage to gain more benefits during the divorce.

After the affair, Gu Yun was more anxious to get divorced than they were, and he was particularly loose when it came to negotiating terms.

Unfortunately, Gu Yun's company had just started at that time, and his family property was indeed not very large. In the end, the mother and son only received some cash and a house.

At first, their life was relatively comfortable. Later, when his mother fell ill, Gu Yanci invested all the family's assets, and even his grandparents' money was almost wiped out.

If his mother hadn't tried to stop him, he would probably have sold the house.

Later, when his mother passed away, his grandmother and grandfather originally wanted to come over to take care of his life, but the distance there was too far, and the two old people were in poor health. Gu Yanci was unwilling to let them go through such trouble, so he rejected the proposal.

He worked many part-time jobs during high school because in addition to paying for his own living and tuition, he also had to send some living expenses to his grandparents every month.

As for Gu Yun, he had never paid living expenses to Gu Yanci in the past few years.

Gu Yanci didn't want to find him either.

I don't want to hear his voice, let alone see him.

It wasn't until his mother fell ill and needed money that he thought about whether to go to Gu Yun.

But her mother was unwilling to use Gu Yun's money, and even said that if she was allowed to use Gu Yun's money, it would be better to just let her die, so Gu Yanci finally gave up the idea.

Unexpectedly, one day he suddenly received a call from Gu Yun asking for living expenses, and it was not just given once, but every two months.

Gu Yanci accepted the money and did not tell her mother about it.

Although he didn't want to pay attention to Gu Yun, he wouldn't refuse the money that came to his door.

After paying for living expenses intermittently for a year, Gu Yun began to make every effort to find a home.

Only then did Gu Yanci find out that Gu Yun and Xiao Xiurong had not been able to give birth to a child in all these years of marriage. They went to the hospital for a checkup. It was Gu Yun who had a problem.

Maybe God finally opened his eyes and prevented him from having children again in this life.

After learning the news, Xiao Xiurong made a quick decision and immediately took his son to change his surname, pinning all his hopes on Gu Xuanlang.

But Gu Yun has no feelings for Gu Xuanlang.

Not only that, the relationship between the stepfather and son is actually quite bad.

Gu Yun is a born devil. He is very irritable and wants to break things and hit people at every turn.

When doing business outside, he had to hold back his temper and even had to talk to others grovelingly. Therefore, when he returned home, he became even more unable to control his temper.

Xiao Xiurong was so popular with him that he was reluctant to take action, so he often took out his anger on Gu Xuanlang. However, after all, he was concerned about Xiao Xiurong's face, so he didn't beat Gu Xuanlang as hard as he did against Gu Yanci and his mother.

In the beginning, Xiao Xiurong was not very kind to this arrogant son. She felt that she was doing a good job just by taking care of his food and clothing. More importantly, she still hoped that she could have another child with Gu Yun.

Later, when she found out she couldn't have a baby, she changed her previous attitude and tried her best to be nice to Gu Xuanlang.

Gu Yun understood Xiao Xiurong's thoughts, so he restrained himself a little, and seemed to deal with her, and did not beat or scold Gu Xuanlang again.

But he is feudal and traditional at heart, and attaches great importance to blood. Even if Gu Xuanlang changes his surname to Gu, he still only recognizes his own son.

Xiao Xiurong knew about Gu Yun's secret visit to Gu Yanci.

She acted very "magnanimously" in this regard, and even came to see Gu Yanci in person, trying to persuade him to go back and follow Gu Yun.

Gu Yanci resisted the urge to beat her, and just poured a basin of cold water on her expressionlessly, then turned around and left.

In fact, Xiao Xiurong's intention is easy to guess. She wants to take Gu Yanci back and teach him a bad lesson. At the same time, she urges Gu Xuanlang to study hard. Over time, she may be able to convince Gu Yun to give up his unfulfilled son.

But she didn't expect that Gu Yanci would be so precocious and beyond her control.

After learning that his mother came to see Gu Yanci, Gu Xuanlang probably felt a sense of crisis, and privately came to trouble Gu Yanci several times.

He was only in elementary school at that time, and he didn't really have the ability to cause trouble for Gu Yanci. He just came over to have a quarrel or a fight with him.

Gu Yanci knew Gu Xuanlang's situation, and he didn't particularly hate this cheap brother in his heart, and even occasionally felt that he was quite pitiful.

However, Gu Xuanlang always came over to look for presence, which made him feel irritated and he would strike hard every time he fought.

Xiao Xiurong never blamed Gu Yanci for his son being beaten.

Gu Yanci could only tell from the changes in Gu Xuanlang's behavior every time he came to see her that Xiao Xiurong didn't care at all whether her son was beaten or not. She only cared about whether her son's grades were better than Gu Yanci's and whether he won awards better than Gu Yanci.

Too many words.

After the high school entrance examination, the news spread that Gu Yanci had won the top prize in the city. Gu Yun called him every day for a while, and Gu Xuanlang also came to see him several times with red eyes.

Gu Yanci thought that this little bastard might be driven crazy by his mother, so he fought with him patiently, trying to help him vent his anger.

However, when Gu Xuanlang went to trouble Li Mianmian in high school, it touched Gu Yanci's bottom line. Not to mention fighting with him, not forcing him to transfer to another school and disappear was all the result of Gu Yanci's patience.

"Originally, I thought that this little bastard would never contact me again after he transferred to another school. Unexpectedly, after I came to the capital, he was the first person to find me."

Gu Yanci said calmly: "He told some things about Gu Yun's life, and I guessed that Gu Yun's hands and feet might not be clean when doing business, so I took the initiative to surrender to Gu Yun. In addition to attending classes these years, I have spent most of my time

They all stay in his company and work."

"I just bought this house this year. Before that, I had been living in the company. It took me a year to finally gain some trust from him." Gu Yanci turned to look at Li Mianmian, "Remember that you were with me on your birthday?"

That person?"

Li Mianmian nodded: "I remember."

Because the man wearing a suit and holding a cake looked really funny, so she was very impressed.

"That person was originally his personal assistant, but now he is my secretary." Gu Yanci said lightly, "He was specially sent to monitor me."

"Ah..." Li Mianmian remembered what that person said, "He also reminded you not to play too late that day..."

"Yes, he just reminded me on purpose." Gu Yanci's eyes showed a cold edge, "He wants me to always remember that all my actions are under his supervision. Gu Yun knows that I am going to celebrate your birthday.

Party, also knows that you live with me, and even knows where you work."

Li Mianmian held her breath as a chill gradually crawled up her spine.

"Don't worry, he won't do anything to you." Gu Yanci raised his hand and touched her head gently, "He just wants to control me."

"Then..." Li Mianmian's throat was choked, "Then... what are you going to do?"

"I said, I'm going to send him to jail."

Gu Yanci suddenly smiled: "Brother is telling you this not to make you worry about what he is going to do."

Li Mianmian touched his neck and asked doubtfully: "Then what do you want to tell me?"

"Brother wants you to know how terrible Gu Yun is."

Gu Yanci bowed slightly, looked into her eyes, and said slowly: "And I am his son."

Their eyes were level with each other, and Li Mianmian saw her own reflection in his pupils.

It was very clear that there was only her shadow.

"So what." Li Mianmian said, "You are not him."

"Haven't you seen your brother beating someone?" Gu Yanci asked, "Aren't you afraid?"

"Why should I be afraid?" Li Mianmian felt confused, "You hit people just to vent my anger."

"But my brother has a very bad temper." Gu Yanci said in a very gentle tone, as if he was afraid of scaring her, "I am born with a bad temper, easily irritable, and likes to hit people."

"I didn't see it."

"Because I'm suppressing." Gu Yanci said, "My appearance in front of you is all pretending. Can you understand?"

"Oh." Li Mianmian said with a cold face, "Then try getting angry at me first."

"..."

"Don't you say it's all just pretending?" Li Mianmian snorted, "Then you let me see the real you, get angry with me, or simply beat me up, then I might not be afraid of you anymore.

I won’t bother you anymore.”

After looking at her silently for a moment, Gu Yanci's Adam's apple rolled and he called her full name in a deep voice: "Li Mianmian..."

"This is not enough." Li Mianmian interrupted him, "You can't scare me like this."

"Okay, you're not afraid." Gu Yanci straightened up, "I'm afraid."
