Mr. Bo, my wife is going on a date with someone again.

Yan Ji looked at the screen and saw the words "ready" sent by Zhou Hongyi, and the corners of his mouth rose involuntarily.

Gu Chenye frowned. Although he didn't know who she was chatting with, he inexplicably felt that this smile was very dazzling. He took a breath and said after a long time: "If the Mu family does not agree to reconcile, what are you going to do?"

"..."

Yan Ji knew that Mu's parents would soon be unable to take care of themselves, so she didn't even think about the aftermath. But in Gu Chenye's view, her silence meant that she didn't use her brain, had no plans, was impulsive, and only acted on her own will.

The man rubbed his cheek, but he couldn't hold his breath. He suddenly turned the steering wheel and stopped the car on the side of the road: "Didn't you think about these questions before you turned yourself in? What if the mental evaluation shows nothing wrong, and the Mu family insists on pursuing your criminal responsibility, what will you do? Go to jail? With the Mu family's doting on Mu Yunyao, you hurt her like that today, and if you really go to jail, do you think you can have a good life?"

Unlike him who was furious, Yan Ji acted very calmly. She swept her silent gaze across the man's face for a long while before she said, "Gu Chenye, let's have dinner together next Monday night."

Gu Chenye was startled, and his voice subconsciously became lighter: "Okay, what do you want to eat? I'll ask Xie Fangze to arrange it."

Yan Ji: "No need, I'll send you the address in advance after I book the restaurant, let's go."

Gu Chenye wanted to say something, but found that the woman had closed her eyes. He held his breath, not knowing whether to go up or down.

When the two returned to the venue, the fashion show was almost over. Sheng Rugu came up to them with an anxious look on his face: "Yan Ji, you are finally back..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly saw a few drops of dried blood on her body: "Are you... injured?"

Sheng Rugu pulled her along, looking her over and over, and after making sure it wasn't her blood, he hurriedly dragged her backstage: "Hurry up and change your clothes, it's time for us to go on stage."

Time was too tight and there was no time to put on makeup, so Yan Ji could only pick up a set of clothes from the shelf and change into them.

Sheng Rugu looked at Yan Ji, who was still so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her even without makeup, and said with emotion: "It is said that when God opens a door for people, he will close a window. Which window did God close for you?"

It was just a joke, but Yan Ji actually thought about it seriously for a moment: "It must be an unfortunate childhood."

A secluded town, wild rumors, a damp cellar, a neurotic mother and an alcoholic father...

When combined together, it's like heaven and earth collapsing.

Sheng Rugu: "What's wrong? Did you think of something unhappy?"

Yan Ji shook his head: "Let's go, it's our turn."

As soon as they appeared on stage, thunderous applause broke out from the audience. Sheng Rugu couldn't help but sighed in a low voice: "Am I dreaming?"

She even saw several faces among them that she could only see on TV. Although she didn't know how Yan Ji had invited these people back, but thinking of the blood on her body, it was definitely not the sweet talk that would be used.

This is her first fashion show and probably her last, but it's worth it. Most designers will never be able to hold a show of this scale in their lifetime.

Just when Sheng Rugu was about to comfort herself, Yan Ji suddenly held her hand and whispered, "There will be many more shows like this in your life."

offstage.

Gu Chenye's eyes fell on Yan Ji, who was dressed in a gorgeous outfit, without blinking: "Are there any good jewelry exhibitions in the past two days?"

Xie Fangze was watching intently, and it took him two seconds to realize that Mr. Gu was talking to him: "It's the day after tomorrow, but if you say you can't go that day, I'll throw away the invitation."

Gu Chenye looked at him and said, "You can't come in without an invitation?"

"..." Xie Fangze paused, then said seriously: "No need, Mr. Gu, just show your dignity."

Who would refuse such a God of Wealth?

Gu Chenye ignored his sarcasm and turned his head and said, "Blank out your schedule for Monday night."

"That day I'm going to..."

"Yan Ji asked me out for dinner."

When he said this, his chin slightly raised, and there was a hint of uncontrollable arrogance in his words.

Xie Fangze immediately put away the schedule he had opened: "Mr. Gu, you finally couldn't help it and forced yourself on your wife?"

Gu Chenye looked at him expressionlessly: "She asked me out."

"The madam took the initiative to ask you out?" Xie Fangze opened his eyes wide in surprise. After a long silence, he couldn't help but ask what was in his mind: "Are you sure it's not a scam?"

Gu Chenye frowned and gritted his teeth: "...Shut up."

You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth.

On the stage, as soon as Sheng Rugu finished her thank-you speech, Yan Ji came down with her skirt lifted up. She hurried through the crowd and walked straight towards Gu Chenye.

When the people around who were eager to come up and make friends saw this scene, they all stopped and watched.

Outsiders didn't know the relationship between the two. They just thought that Yan Ji, like them, also wanted to climb up the big tree of Mr. Gu. They were all waiting to see what happened to her so as to infer Gu Chenye's preferences.

Yan Ji seemed not to notice the strange looks from the people around her. She called out to Gu Chenye sweetly, "Husband."

"..."

Xie Fangze retreated a little calmly, fearing that he would be implicated.

"Husband?" Although he knew that she had other intentions, Gu Chenye's heartbeat still quickened a few beats with these two words.

He squinted his eyes and looked at Yan Ji for a moment before squeezing out a single sound from his throat: "Hmm."

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

The people around them exchanged glances quickly——

The designer of this show turned out to be Mr. Gu’s wife?

I haven’t heard that Mr. Gu got married?

Whose daughter is Mrs. Gu? What are her hobbies?

Gu Chenye put his arm around Yan Ji's waist, leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Are you satisfied?"

After this, others will only remember that she is Gu Chenye’s wife, and will not remember that she offended the Mu family.

Yan Ji raised the corner of his mouth and replied in a guttural voice: "Good performance, I will reward you."

This show was extremely successful. More than a dozen contracts were signed on the spot and dozens of contact information were left. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Sheng Rugu gave Yan Ji a thumbs up.

……

On Monday, Gu Chenye found the restaurant based on the location and discovered that Yan Ji had booked a couple's room.

The woman had already arrived and was putting on makeup in front of her phone. Her long, straight legs were crossed, and her clothes were tight, clinging to her waistline as she leaned slightly forward.

The warm yellow light blurred the sharp edges of her body. Gu Chenye stood at the door, and the words "the years are quiet and good" suddenly popped up in his mind.

He heard his own heartbeat.

Yan Ji slowly finished putting on makeup before turning back and looking at him with a haughty look: "Are you planning to eat this meal squatting outside the door?"

Gu Chenye: "..."

The filter created by the light disappeared instantly.

Yan Ji is still the same person who can poison people to death with just his words.
