I was worried that Gu Yuanzhou would see through my flaws.

I forced myself not to answer.

Fortunately, I had switched it to vibrate mode earlier.

The vibrating sound wasn’t very noticeable, practically undetectable unless one listened closely.

Luckily, Gu Yuanzhou just gave a perfunctory hug before releasing me.

“Let’s go!”

“Yeah, sure!”

This place is really remote.

When Yuanzhou and I arrived at the front desk, I noticed the vast lobby was devoid of other guests besides us.

I discreetly looked around and didn’t spot Song Siwen or anyone suspicious.

As we were checking in, Gu Yuanzhou kept holding my hand.

“How many rooms for the gentleman?”

“One!”

“Would you prefer a double room or a twin room…”

The front desk clerk asked proficiently, and Gu Yuanzhou glanced at me, “Do you have any special requests?”

In the past, I would definitely have asked for a standard room; even if I stayed with him, I didn’t want to share a pillow.

There was no need to sleep together without feelings.

However, to avoid arousing Yuanzhou’s suspicion, I could only say,

“It doesn’t matter, either is fine!”

Then Yuanzhou told the front desk, “A double room!”

“Alright, sir, here is your room key, please keep it safe!”

After getting the room, Gu Yuanzhou took my hand and headed for the elevator.

The hotel wasn’t tall, just seven or eight stories, nestled among a swath of green trees, the lights shining among the woods like the stars in the sky.

A perfect blend of the wild and nature.

Indeed a good place for a date.

After reaching the bedroom, Gu Yuanzhou took off his coat and fetched a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet.

He poured half a glass for me.

“You know? The question you asked earlier, whether you are Ayun or not, it doesn’t really matter. It’s okay even if you’re not!”

I took the glass of red wine, playing with it in my hand without any intention of drinking it just yet. I glanced at him and asked,

“Why?”

“Because with you, I have a feeling.”

“What feeling?”

He gently stroked my hair,

“When I’m with you, I feel like I’m still with her. It’s a nice feeling.”

I remained silent.

After a long while, I took a sip of the red wine.

The fruity aroma of grapes mingled with the mellow taste of alcohol, slowly melting in my mouth.

“Uh, tell me about He Manyi!”

At that moment, I was still on high alert, tense as a tightly strung wire.

Fearing any mistake in the middle of it, he engaged in small talk while thinking about other things, his mind actually somewhat absent.

Gu Yuanzhou took a sip of wine, his voice deep and steady, his gaze profound.

“What if I told you, even without He Manyi, Song Shixiong would have found another Manyi to use, would you believe me?”

“What do you mean? I clearly heard that He Manyi was arranged by you.”

Gu Yuanzhou opened the window, looking out into the night outside,

“Years ago, Song Shixiong’s power was tremendous. Moreover, he is capricious and ruthless with his subordinates. He often fires people over minor mistakes. By placing He Manyi by his side, I was merely seeking to grasp his weakness. It was to guard against any future actions he might take against me, so I could counter them.”

Gu Yuanzhou’s words seemed to make some sense.

But upon closer thought, they were still seriously flawed.

“Mr. Gu, what you are saying is just laughable. Song Shixiong’s dearest loved one is his niece, and he has married his niece off to you. That is like handing over his vulnerability into your hands, what are you talking about, bringing up something else?”

Gu Yuanzhou turned around and slowly walked up to me, placing his hands on my shoulders.

“You are wrong! His most beloved is not his niece!”

“Then who is it?”

“Anyway, he loves every member of the Song family… but it’s definitely not you!”

“Nonsense! His most beloved person is his sister, Song Xianjing! And I am her daughter! My uncle has cherished me since I was young, treating me like the apple of his eye.”

“No, you are mistaken!”

Gu Yuanzhou looked at me with a profound gaze.

He stopped short of saying more.

“Where am I mistaken? Gu Yuanzhou! From childhood, my uncle provided me with the best food, clothing, and supplies, and the schools he sent me to were elite schools. I’m not a fool; can’t I tell that he treated me well? It’s said that blood is thicker than water, do you think that with just a few words from you, you can alienate me from his affection?”

“Those are what you deserve!”

“Do you think that because he is my uncle, that is what I deserve?”

“No, it’s because that money is yours!”

“So, you mean to say that my uncle’s money is mine?”

“No… that money, it’s wrung from your father’s hands. Do you know how your mother died? She was driven to death by Song Shixiong! To extract value from her, he drove her to her death. So, the kindness he showed you afterward was probably due to his guilt!”

Gu Yuanzhou described calmly.

I had never heard any news about my father since I was young.

Some said that my father was a poor boy who, after falling in love with my mother, abandoned her, leading to her depression and death.

Others claimed that my mother fell in love with a married man who abandoned her after she became pregnant with me.

In any case, I had heard various rumors about myself from others and couldn’t discern the truth.

As a child, not understanding any of it, I’d go to my uncle to inquire.

But every time I brought it up in front of my uncle, he would get angry with a dark face and warn me not to mention it again.

After asking my aunt, she told me that my mother had made many mistakes in the past and that she would tell me when I grew up.

However, when I grew up, I no longer had the courage to ask.

Because of the scandal surrounding my father’s identity, I was really afraid that I was the “bastard” people talked about.

Now, Gu Yuanzhou mentioning my father, I was actually a bit curious.

I wanted to ask him clearly, but then I thought, this man is full of lies, and if I believed him again, I would be a fool.

Moreover, tonight, we had a big plan to carry out, and I couldn’t back out at the last minute.

Just then, my phone in my pocket vibrated again.

I glanced at him,

“I need to go to the restroom; we can talk more later!”

I took my phone into the restroom and closed the door behind me, then opened the message – Song Siwen had sent the same text several times.

“I saw you guys arrive, in a bit invite Gu Yuanzhou to the pavilion in the backyard to watch the stars. We can easily take action there!”
