Chapter 29: You Are My Best Brother, She Is My Wife! How Dare You!
A bar.
Su Tuantuan watched as Qin Shu recklessly poured alcohol into her mouth; her cheeks were flushed bright red, and she was a complete mess. Su Tuantuan watched with trepidation: "Drink less, my sister."
Qin Shu did not listen, looking at Su Tuantuan with an expression that was half-laughing and half-crying, alternating between the two: "These past five years, I've lived like a joke!"
She pointed at her own heart, looking at Su Tuantuan with teary eyes: "Tuanzi, it hurts here."
Su Tuantuan rubbed her chest for her, and Qin Shu pouted, her eyes red as she said: "It still hurts."
Qin Shu slumped onto the table and buried her head to cry; drunk, Qin Shu was as childish as a kid: "I never want to like Gu Tingyan again."
The second floor.
Jiang Xubai and Ji Yanli were in a private room upstairs. Jiang Xubai was the first to spot Qin Shu, and he frowned: "Why is this woman here too?"
Ji Yanli looked down; Su Tuantuan and Qin Shu, two girls, were drinking. Both were beautiful, and a group of men nearby were staring at them, restless, wondering if they could take them home once they were drunk.
Ji Yanli stood up: "I'm going out for a moment."
"Where are you going?"
"To send them home."
Jiang Xubai was stunned: "That is Gu Tingyan's wife; since when did you get so close to her?"
He did not wait for Ji Yanli's answer; the man had already disappeared around the corner.
Su Tuantuan saw Ji Yanli as if she had seen a savior: "Beautiful Senior Brother!"
Ji Yanli walked over and supported Qin Shu with his hands: "Why did you drink so much?"
Su Tuantuan did not mention Qin Shu's divorce; after all, it was private: "She's in a bad mood."
Ji Yanli looked at Qin Shu's tear-stained face, took a tissue to wipe her tears, his gaze gentle yet filled with heartache.
Ji Yanli picked Qin Shu up horizontally and looked at Su Tuantuan: "I'll take you both back."
Su Tuantuan was stunned, then nodded: "Alright, I really can't handle her alone."
Su Tuantuan gave Ji Yanli the address. After getting out of the car, Ji Yanli was stunned: "She lives here with you?"
"Did you have a fight with Gu Tingyan?"
"Something like that."
Downstairs at Su Tuantuan's apartment building.
A priceless Maybach was parked by the side of the road.
Gu Tingyan, in a crisp suit, leaned against the car body. A cool breeze blew through his fine hair, and he held a cigarette between his fingertips, exhaling a thin layer of smoke, which made his handsome, chiseled features appear even more mature and dashing.
The wind blew, clearing his head a little.
Gu Tingyan had been there for a while; the cool night wind was blowing, and a pile of cigarette butts had accumulated at his feet.
In the residential complex, he suddenly heard a familiar voice cursing angrily. Gu Tingyan frowned and looked up, listening carefully, only to hear Qin Shu calling him a dog of a man.
This voice was also getting closer.
Gu Tingyan: "..."
Immediately after, Gu Tingyan heard Su Tuantuan joining in to curse him, and the veins on his temples instantly throbbed.
Usually, when Su Tuantuan saw him at the company, she would hide far away as if she had seen a ghost, slipping away the moment she saw him from afar.
Unless absolutely necessary, Su Tuantuan would never go to Gu Tingyan's office.
He hadn't expected that because of Qin Shu, she held such great resentment toward him.
She probably hadn't spared him much cursing in private.
Gu Tingyan heard the voice right in front of him and looked up, just in time to bump into Ji Yanli carrying Qin Shu back.
Gu Tingyan looked at Ji Yanli with an obscure expression, his pitch-black eyes narrowing dangerously. He straightened up, looking at him with an icy gaze.
Su Tuantuan had not expected Gu Tingyan to be downstairs at her place.
Ji Yanli, holding Qin Shu, also paused slightly upon seeing Gu Tingyan, his fingers stiffening.
She hurriedly took Qin Shu from Ji Yanli's arms and explained: "Hua Hua is drunk, Mr. Ji helped bring us back."
Ji Yanli: "Mm."
Seeing Tuanzi coming to retrieve her, Qin Shu refused; she reached out and hugged Ji Yanli's waist, holding on even tighter.
"I don't want to go down!"
Gu Tingyan saw Qin Shu hugging Ji Yanli's waist and refusing to let go, and his expression became even more terrifying.
"Get down here right now!"
He said through gritted teeth: "Qin Shu! We aren't divorced yet!"
What kind of Shura field was this!
Gu Tingyan walked over and snatched Qin Shu from Ji Yanli's arms. When Qin Shu saw Gu Tingyan's face, she resisted even more violently.
She kept trying to burrow back into Ji Yanli's arms, as if Gu Tingyan were a monster: "I don't want you! Get lost!"
The veins on Gu Tingyan's temples throbbed.
Ji Yanli looked at Gu Tingyan with dissatisfaction: "Be gentle, you'll hurt her."
Ji Yanli lowered his head to soothe her: "Xiao Hua, don't be afraid."
Qin Shu, in his arms, instantly quieted down. Gu Tingyan's gaze toward Ji Yanli changed in an instant.
Gu Tingyan said coldly: "What is your relationship with her?"
Ji Yanli raised his eyes, looking straight at him, his expression calm: "I have known her since I was eight."
Ji Yanli looked at him: "Gu Tingyan, if you don't treat her well, I will snatch her away from your side."
Su Tuantuan's eyes widened, scanning back and forth between Gu Tingyan and Ji Yanli.
The next second, Gu Tingyan smashed a fist into Ji Yanli's face, his eyes blood-red: "You are my best brother, and she is my wife!"
"Ji Yanli! How dare you!"
Ji Yanli held Qin Shu and took a punch, stepped back, then looked up at Gu Tingyan with a curled lip and said coldly, "It is precisely because you are my best brother that Qin Shu likes you too."
"That is why I didn't fight you for the marriage five years ago!"
Ji Yanli sneered, his voice cold and sharp: "Gu Tingyan, otherwise, what do you think you relied on?"
Su Tuantuan's mouth opened even wider; she hadn't expected that this kid Qin Shu had something going for her, with two men fighting over her out of jealousy.
She inexplicably thought of a saying: loving someone cannot be hidden, but if you love two people, you had better hide it well.
Ji Yanli is the main consort! Gu Tingyan is the concubine!
Gu Tingyan's whole body shook.
No wonder Ji Yanli didn't come to attend his wedding five years ago; it was because the person he liked had married Gu Tingyan!
No wonder he suddenly went abroad five years ago without a word and never came back!
Gu Tingyan looked at Ji Yanli and was suddenly so angry he laughed: "You really are a damn good hider."
The next day.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the alarm went off.
When Qin Shu woke up, her head was splitting with pain; she hurriedly reached out to turn off the alarm, saw Su Tuantuan still sleeping, and reached out to shake her: "Tuanzi, get up."
"You're going to be late for work."
Su Tuantuan woke up in a start, quickly climbed out of bed, and rushed into the bathroom to wash up; after a flurry of chaos, Su Tuantuan put on her bag and prepared to leave.
Su Tuantuan bent down to change her shoes and instructed her: "Wait for me to get off work tonight, I'll take you out for a big meal!"
Qin Shu: "Okay."
With a "bang," the door closed.
After Qin Shu sobered up, her head still ached, and she didn't remember how she had returned yesterday.
Today she was going to get a divorce with Gu Tingyan.
After washing up, she applied exquisite makeup and put on lipstick, which finally made her complexion look better.
Before leaving, she sent a message to Gu Tingyan to remind him: "Don't be late."
Gu Tingyan: "Come downstairs."
"I am downstairs from you."
Qin Shu was startled and frowned fiercely: "Gu Tingyan, are you stalking me?"
Gu Tingyan didn't reply at all.
Qin Shu changed her clothes and went downstairs, and sure enough, she saw that familiar car body of Gu Tingyan's on the side of the road.
The man was sitting in the car, wearing a crisp, exquisitely tailored suit, with his shirt buttons undone to reveal his sexy collarbone inside.
His eyes were as dark as ink and cold; the car window was half-open, his hand rested casually outside, and his fingertips held a glowing red cigarette as he smoked; thinking of Ji Yanli's words from last night, his chest felt stifled.
Ji Yanli actually liked Qin Shu!
He placed the cigarette to his lips and exhaled a puff of smoke, looking sexy and alluring.
The mature charm of an adult man was instantly displayed, making anyone who saw it feel their heart tremble uncontrollably.
Qin Shu had always known he was good-looking.
If it hadn't been for this face of his back then, she wouldn't have fallen so hard for him.
Gu Tingyan seemed to notice her gaze; he held the cigarette between his fingertips, flicked the ash, and said, "Get in the car."
Qin Shu walked over and saw the pile of cigarette butts on the ground, as if he had been here all night without leaving.
Qin Shu didn't ask; she pulled open the car door and sat in the back seat.
Gu Tingyan stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, glanced back nonchalantly, and said coldly: "Am I your driver?"
"Sit in the front."
Qin Shu didn't move and didn't even lift her eyelids: "If you're going to drive, hurry up, don't delay me from going to hail a taxi."
Gu Tingyan chuckled, looking at the woman in the back who was like a hedgehog with its quills out, his eyes filled with a smile.
Gu Tingyan stared at her with his dark eyes for a long time and said in a low voice: "Your gentle personality from before, you were faking it, right?"
Qin Shu looked at him and sneered at him: "That's right."
"Before, Chu Yu told you that I hit her."
Qin Shu said vindictively: "It was indeed me who hit her."
But she wouldn't admit it.
Gu Tingyan was stunned when he heard this.
Qin Shu saw his stunned, incredulous expression, and she smiled vindictively, like a little fox that had succeeded.
She had a very rebellious streak in her bones.
Gu Tingyan bit the cigarette in his mouth and asked indifferently: "Do you still remember how you got back last night?"
