Chapter 296: Chapter 296 Because I Love Her, I Trust Her
Luo Jina, who was pinching Little Gu Chen’s hand, heard this and immediately let out a cold laugh.
"Huo Yichang, as an ex, you should behave as if you’re dead. Why keep popping up like a recurring nightmare? And ’Xiaowan, Xiaowan,’ you don’t deserve to call her that at all."
After Luo Jina finished speaking, she turned eagerly to Gu Jue and said, "Commander, don’t listen to his nonsense. He’s definitely not going to say anything good about Xiaowan!"
Gu Jue looked up at the man, who was acting cowardly, and said calmly, "Jina, will you take care of Xiaochen for me?"
Luo Jina wanted to say something more, but Alex pulled her aside, and in the end, she just uttered an okay.
After they left, Luo Jina turned back and gave Alex a kick.
"Why did you pull me back just now? Whenever that Huo Yichang shows up, it’s never anything good! He definitely wants to badmouth Xiaowan!" she said.
Alex looked nonchalant, "Huo Yichang is definitely stirring up trouble, but do you think Commander Gu would be swayed by him that easily? Besides, if there really was a conflict, who do you think would be the unfortunate one?"
Commander Gu could squash Huo Yichang with just a flick of his little finger.
Men naturally harbor hostility towards their wives’ ex-boyfriends and ex-fiancés.
Even if they have already become the ultimate winner.
But that doesn’t prevent them from being extremely disgusted with their wife’s ex.
Huo Yichang, that fool, should have just quietly grown mushrooms in a corner, but he dared to hop around in front of Commander Gu?
It’s purely a death wish.
Alex had a different case. Their senior Agros was a man of great vision.
He let go graciously and was generous enough to bless them.
But Huo Yichang, that guy... Alex would bet that he would definitely get beaten up.
As he spoke, he couldn’t help but reach out to touch the wolf-baby’s ears. The next moment, he felt a current run from his fingertips all the way down to the base of his tail.
The thrill...
Meanwhile, Gu Jue and his group had reached a corner, where there was no one else around.
Huo Yichang looked around and then lowered his voice to Gu Jue, "Commander Gu, you know there’s a person named Lin Yu who is very close to Su Wan, right?"
Gu Jue: "So what?"
"Commander, this Lin Yu has his eyes set on Su Wan! And Su Wan knows about it too! I kindly went to remind her, and she ended up beating me up for it!"
Huo Yichang truly couldn’t understand what had gotten into Su Wan.
How had that pure and delicate girl from the past turned into what she was today!
Seeing that Gu Jue did not respond, Huo Yichang pressed on.
"Commander Gu, I just cannot stand by anymore! Su Wan wasn’t like this before, she must have been corrupted by staying with Luo Jina and Sheng An!"
"She openly defends Lin Yu. God knows what these two may have been doing behind closed doors... Ah!"
Gu Jue reached out and grabbed Huo Yichang by the neck with ease and lifted him off the ground.
Huo Yichang tried to loosen Gu Jue’s grip but couldn’t, and his legs kicked wildly about.
He intentionally chose a place with few people, wanting to talk ill of Su Wan.
And now, because the place was deserted, no one would be around to save him even if he died!
Huo Yichang struggled as he gasped, "Gu, Commander Gu, you... you..."
Gu Jue said,"It seems that my leniency in allowing the Huo Family to exist and you to appear at Empire University was a mistake."
"Such trash like you, I once thought you could bring happiness to Wanwan. I was wrong."
With a release of his hand, Huo Yichang crashed onto the ground.
Huo Yichang could finally breathe, his face red, coughing violently.
Seeing Gu Jue turn to leave, Huo Yichang called out loudly, "Commander! Don’t you believe what I said?"
Gu Jue paused without turning back and replied, "I believe someone likes her, because Wanwan is so wonderful. But, I don’t believe she would cheat."
"You trust her that much!"
"Yes, I love her, so I trust her unconditionally."
Gu Jue strode forward, slowly walking away, leaving Huo Yichang stunned in his place.
Had their feelings for each other deepened so much?!
Gu Jue turned a corner and looked up, just to see Gu Lei, the Director.
The Director sighed, "This is the first time I’ve seen you act so impulsively."
Gu Jue looked down, "He insulted Wanwan, he deserved to be hit."
The Director, "Mhm, if it weren’t for the fact that you were about to strangle him to death, I would have gone up and slapped him a few times myself."
So, he had already turned off the surveillance cameras in that area.
As long as Gu Jue didn’t strangle the man to death, it would be fine.
Gu Jue walked toward the Mecha competition venue, stopped after a few steps, and looked back to say, "Expel Huo Yichang."
The Director nodded, "No problem."
Everyone has their biases.
If Ranyue heard that this man insulted Wanwan in such a way, she would definitely be even angrier.
After giving his instructions, Gu Jue turned and walked into the spectator stands of the competition.
Su Wan had already finished her match.
She walked to the side of the stands where her wolf-eared baby reached out his little hands to her, and she picked him up without hesitation.
"Little Gu Chen, you’ve gained weight again."
"Mommy, mommy."
The wolf-eared baby’s voice revealed a whiny tone,
signaling that he wasn’t fat yet and could still eat lots of grilled octopus legs!
When Su Wan looked up and saw Gu Jue, she walked over to him with the child in her arms.
The child transportation vehicle that Gu Jue had built with his own hands automatically followed mother and child.
Gu Jue, worried his wife might be tired, then took his son from her arms and placed him into the transportation vehicle.
Little Gu Chen: "..."
He quietly munched on the squid strips in his hand, which Jina had just bought for him.
Su Wan knew that it was Huo Yichang who had taken Gu Jue away.
But with people coming and going in the school, she looked outside and said, "Your exclusive resting room is nearby, shall we go there?"
Gu Jue, "Okay."
The couple, along with their child, walked out together.
Luo Jina and Alex were both somewhat worried, but Sheng An, who had just arrived, said calmly, "Huo Yichang won’t affect Xiaowan and the Commander’s relationship, he doesn’t have that kind of weight."
Luo Jina, "The main concern is that Xiaowan was almost married to that Huo Yichang before, right? I’m worried Huo Yichang will blather on about Xiaowan still having feelings for him or something."
Sheng An shook her head, "That’s impossible. Just a few days ago, Xiaowan gave him a good beating."
Luo Jina’s eyes lit up, "That actually happened! And you didn’t invite me to enjoy the drama!"
Sheng An, "... Next time, if something like this happens, I’ll record it for you."
And in fact, someone did record it.
In the Commander’s exclusive resting room, Su Wan showed the video of Huo Yichang suddenly blocking her, what he said, and how she beat him up.
Also included were the conversations she later had with Lin Yu, Sheng An, and others, all captured on video.
When the video ended, Su Wan said, "That’s the whole story. I’ve also just learned of Lin Yu’s feelings for me, but I think this might just be friendship, which he hasn’t differentiated properly."
"I’ve given him a way out. As long as Lin Yu is careful with the boundaries, I’ll continue to treat him as a friend. If he crosses the line, then I’ll have to lose this friend."
After she finished speaking, she realized that the Commander was sitting there, not saying a word.
Even Little Gu Chen, who was gnawing on squid strips, curiously looked at his silent daddy.
