Her voice hadn’t been loud, but every word she said was potent.
Du Linxi’s evil smile dissipated in an instant.
By the time he was snapped out of his daze, Ming Qu had already left in large strides.
Because he hadn’t yet entered the house after quite some time, Ming Lai, who had been in the living room, had grown impatient and came out to look for him. She saw him staring blankly at Ming Qu, who had just gotten into a car and left.
“What are you doing? Why… Do you have a crush on her?”
“How is that possible?”
Ming Lai was bitter as she mocked him.
Du Linxi retracted his gaze, forcefully denying the accusation.
Ming Lai let out a sigh of relief. She took his arm as they entered the living room.
At this moment, Ming Qu was rushing to the south of the city in the car.
On the way, she asked about Du Linxi.
Ah Jiang looked back at her through the rearview mirror as he told her everything he knew.
“The eldest son of the Du family and the second-in-command of their textile factory. Back then, he met Ming Lai when they were studying abroad and fell in love. They are now engaged.”
Hearing this, Ming Qu ridiculed coldly, “As expected, birds of a feather flock together.”
“From what I’ve gathered, Young Master Du may actually be somewhat afraid of Ming Lai. It could be because the Ming family’s power surpasses that of the Du family’s.”
“That’s why she has my attention.”
Ming Qu interrupted abruptly.
Ah Jiang’s eyes glanced up to look at her again, but Ming Qu had already turned her gaze outside the window. He briefly understood her words.
On the second day after Ming Zhicheng had been taken in for discussion with the Overwatch Council, Ming Qu was trending online as Mrs. Gu.
From the moment the news broke, the whole country was in an uproar.
Gu Yuzhen’s name instantly became a hot topic around the country. The rich and handsome president had been the dream lover of countless women. When people saw the news, they were unsurprisingly jealous.
Of course, Gu Yuzhen had personally taken Ming Qu away from the Ming family.
He wanted everyone to know that his wife was Ming Qu, the forgotten Ming daughter.
On the night that she was taken away, Ming Lai had been enraged.
Thus, she started to devise a plan that would completely destroy Ming Qu.
“Why didn’t you discuss this with me?”
In the luxurious villa, Ming Qu was dressed in a plain white woolen sweater paired with a cotton plaid skirt. Her slightly curly chestnut hair fell loose behind her, making her clear, petite face look even more charming and alluring.
Gu Yuzhen took off his suit jacket, handing it off to a servant. He turned around and took a step forward before stroking her shoulders. His eyes were full of affection as he said, “I told you earlier. Have you forgotten?”
Ming Qu pursed her lips as she looked up at him. Her bright eyes flickered, as if recalling something.
He had mentioned it, but thinking that it was only because he had been drugged that night and said it out of guilt, she had not taken it to heart.
“Let’s go upstairs, I’ll show you around.”
His usual cold demeanor seemed to have completely evaporated, leaving behind a warm and elegant man.
He led Ming Qu to the second floor and guided her straight to the bedroom.
“The wedding may not be happening yet for the time being, but it shouldn’t affect us living together.”
He seemed impatient. He leaned over to kiss her, but before he could, Ming Qu raised a finger to his lips, saying with extreme clarity, “I’ve told you before even returning to China that I wanted back everything that belongs to me. For my sake, the wedding will have to be postponed.”
“As your man, I’ll naturally have to support you.”
Hearing him say that, Ming Qu stood on her tiptoes, taking the initiative to kiss him.
This threw Gu Yuzhen into high spirits. Their kiss was a passionate one, his arms locked tightly around her slender waist.
Ming Qu let out a slight groan.
Hearing it, Gu Yuzhen could not withstand her anymore. It was as if all the cells in his body had been awakened in an instant, all of them clamoring up.
Ming Qu felt something hard press against her lower abdomen, and her face instantly turned red as an apple.
In the eyes of outsiders, this man was composed and indifferent, calm and calculative. Yet whenever he touched her, he lost control, going into heat. Between these two hot and cold demeanors, which one was he really?
Ming Qu had been lost in thought when she suddenly felt that her body was being suspended in the air. She immediately crashed onto a soft bed, Gu Yuzhen’s heavy body pinning her down.
His kiss was warm as it crept all the way down from her lips, past her fair neck, and continued towards her breasts.
Feeling that her sweater was in the way, one of Gu Yuzhen’s hands had already reached into her underwear, preparing to rip them off.
At the last moment, Ming Qu pressed down against his hand.
