Jin Mingzhu couldn't help but burst out all the emotions that had been pent up all day because of his sarcastic words. She struggled to break free from Gu Huaijin's hand and said angrily:

"Gu Huaijin, I married you, not sold myself to you. Why, do you have to control who I think about?"

The other party laughed in anger, ignoring her struggles and pressing her against the French window:

"Jin Mingzhu, all your abnormal behavior today is because Xu Yang was released from prison, right?"

"It's fine if you secretly went to see him, but you dared to answer that man's call in our house, and now you dare to think about him! Don't forget, you are Mrs. Gu!"

His last words were full of anger, and his grip on her hand gradually tightened, making her groan.

Jin Mingzhu could not help but stand there in a daze. Gu Huaijin actually knew that she had gone to see Xu Yang, and took the initiative to attack:

"Gu Huaijin! Not only did you send people to monitor me, but you also tapped my phone calls. You have no shame!"

Gu Huaijin was angry at her reaction. She had done something wrong, yet she dared to complain first. He smiled sarcastically:

“Jin Mingzhu, you thought you could avoid Shadow’s surveillance and secretly meet Xu Yang, but you didn’t notice that you left reed flowers in your hair.”

"You are my wife, so what if I monitor you! I see that you are watching me so closely, but you are still secretly having an affair with Xu Yang. If I don't care anymore, I will be cuckolded!"

Jin Mingzhu was speechless by his bandit logic. Seeing him humiliating Xu Yang, she felt even more angry and argued:

"Gu Huaijin, even if you don't believe me, you should believe in Xu Yang's character. He is upright and kind, not the kind of person you think!"

"Jin Mingzhu!" Gu Huaijin called her by her full name, which meant he was angry.

It’s fine if she cried secretly, but she even dared to mention that man in front of him! Gu Huaijin’s face became darker and darker, and he pressed Jin Mingzhu down tightly.

Jin Mingzhu was certain that Gu Huaijin would not dare to touch her, so she looked at him fearlessly and refused to back down.

Gu Huaijin laughed suddenly, the curve of his mouth was extremely cold, and he said sarcastically:

"I think you have forgotten your identity as Mrs. Gu? If you mention him again, I will have Feng Zhen bring him to you and kill him!"

Jin Mingzhu looked into Gu Huaijin's ink-black eyes, and his furious expression calmed down at this moment.

Xu Yang was her bottom line, she refused to back down and said sternly:

"Gu Huaijin, do you dare?"

"Do you think I dare?" Gu Huaijin reached out his hand, kindly gathered her clothes, and warned:

"Jin Mingzhu, just be at ease and do your job as Mrs. Gu. Otherwise, you know..."

His words were spoken lightly, but Jin Mingzhu's expression suddenly showed a hint of panic. She had seen Shadow's methods, and was even more afraid of what Gu Huaijin would do to Xu Yang.

Her body couldn't help but tremble twice. The other party noticed her reaction and touched her arm:

"Honey, it's very late, let's go to bed."

No sleep for one night.

She and Gu Huaijin lived in peace with each other for half a month. During this period, she also tactfully inquired about Xu Yang's news through Qi Qiao. She learned that he was fine and that he was planning to leave Beijing.

Jin Mingzhu's heart couldn't help but feel bitter. Xu Yang had stayed in Beijing for her. Although things had changed, she still had a fantasy in her heart. Maybe one day on the street corner, she could see the boy in her memory again.

Her thoughts were racing as Sister Wang called her softly from the side.

Jin Mingzhu then came to her senses and looked at the screen. Many messages popped up in the WeChat group. She scrolled the mouse and found that she was pulled into a new group.

She took a quick look and saw the name of the group, "Beijing University Students in Beijing City". The initiator of the group chat called on the students who stayed in Beijing City to get together and reminisce about their youth.

Jin Mingzhu has never liked these boring activities, so she raised her hand and clicked to exit.

After a while, Qi Qiao sent her the time and place of the class reunion and invited her to go.

Jin Mingzhu wanted to refuse, but Qi Qiao said a few pitiful words to her, and she could no longer say no, so she agreed to Qi Qiao's invitation.

"Honey, you are the best. I love you the most!" Qi Qiao exaggeratedly sent several emoticons in a row.

Jin Mingzhu replied and exited the chat page.

The day of the party soon arrived. Jin Mingzhu hurriedly finished her work and got into Qi Qiao's car.

Qi Qiao saw that she was in a professional suit and complained:

"Ms. Jin, you are the campus beauty of Beijing University. Although you are naturally beautiful, can you dress up simply, such as changing your clothes?"

Jin Mingzhu rubbed her aching wrist and responded weakly:

"I wrote a 3,000-word interview script today. I had just finished it when you called me. I didn't have time to clean myself up."

Qi Qiao smiled, reached out and picked up a gift box from the back seat and handed it to her:

"I knew it, you're a workaholic. I've prepared everything for you a long time ago. You're going to kill it all tonight!"

Jin Mingzhu opened it and saw a cheongsam with intricate craftsmanship. Roses were blooming on the branches, and the whole dress exuded a high-end style.

"So exaggerated?" she asked in confusion.

Qi Qiao explained:

"Mingzhu, this is a class reunion, a time for men to compete for wealth and women to compete for beauty; how can you dress ordinary?"

Qi Qiao has always been more worldly-wise than her. Seeing that she had thoughtfully prepared high heels for her, Jin Mingzhu accepted the offer and put them on before getting off the car.

"Beautiful!" Qi Qiao's eyes flashed with amazement when he saw Jin Mingzhu getting out of the car like a rose fairy.

"I feel it's too exaggerated, like attending a high-end dinner." Jin Mingzhu pulled the hem of her skirt and complained.

Hearing this, Qi Qiao quickly reached out and pushed her forward:

"Mingzhu, let's go, we're going to be late."

For this class reunion, the organizers booked an entire floor of private rooms. Qi Qiao took Jin Mingzhu to the room and was about to raise their hands to knock on the door when they heard a sarcastic laugh from inside.

"I heard that the golden boy and girl from Kyoto University broke up..." a girl said maliciously.

The others were interested in hearing the gossip about the school beauty and asked:

"That's not right. They had such a good relationship. Xu Yang even proposed to her at the graduation ceremony. How could they break up?"

"Yes, everyone was moved at the time. I thought they had been married for a long time."

"Yeah, what a perfect couple."

……

"Ahem," the man with bad intentions just now continued:

"Who knows? I heard that Xu Yang got into trouble to save her and was thrown into prison."

This news was like thunder from a clear sky. Everyone couldn't believe that a top student from the law school would break the law knowingly. They all urged her to continue.

The room was terribly quiet, and I could only hear someone saying:

"I just heard about it a while ago. Xu Yang was just released. Do you know what our school beauty did?"

She played the suspense, glanced at everyone, and continued:

"Our school beauty abandoned Xu Yang."

Qi Qiao couldn't bear to listen any longer and was about to knock on the door to remind them, but Jin Mingzhu held her hand and motioned for her to continue listening.
