Chapter 381: Chapter 381 You seem to hate him_1
If she had known, she wouldn’t have allowed this proposal to happen, resulting in such an embarrassing ending and deeply offending Third Young Master Jun.
"How would I have known? I was simply attending to urgent matters and just happened to be passing by when I saw him proposing to you. In a fit of anger, I rushed up to take you away."
While he shouldn’t have shown up, having witnessed the grandiose proposal scene stirred up by Jun Huang, he suddenly became unsure if such a touching scene would make her waver.
Moreover, seeing Jun Huang’s confident and contented expression filled his heart with hatred, inciting him to retaliate and have this man taste the pain he once endured.
He didn’t want to make use of Ye Lu, yet in the end, the hatred within won over.
"Is that all there is to it?" Ye Lu looked seriously at him, a sense of unease welling up inside. She couldn’t help asking, "Then why do you look like you detest him so much?"
She wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but it seemed like Gu Yan knew Third Young Master Jun for a very long time.
Whenever he faced Third Young Master Jun, his provoking words were full of rage and hatred, as if facing an enemy he loathed to the core.
Pondering on the details, a vague feeling arose that Gu Yan sometimes seemed to use her to undercut and provoke Third Young Master Jun. However, she remained uncertain.
"Ye Lu, what are you suspecting? Do you think I’ve been using you? Is it wrong that I detest him? He proposed to my fiancee right in front of me. Can’t you see it? Do you think I should swallow down this anger? Do you think I could hold back my rage in face of a love rival? I wish I could kill him."
He roared back at her in anger.
Part of his anger was born out of disappointment that she had never fully trusted him, and part of it was his fear that revealing his true intentions would lead to losing her.
He didn’t want to lose her. After his revenge, he wanted to let everything go and be with her.
While he indeed used her to hurt Jun Huang, his love for her wasn’t fake. He would make it up to her later, striving to make her feel loved and happy.
Seeing him so enraged, Ye Lu became flustered, her voice softening, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it that way. Tonight’s events have simply caught me off-guard, causing me to have wild thoughts."
She held his hand, looking earnestly at him.
"Since I’ve decided to be with you, I can’t tolerate any form of deception or manipulation. But I’m sorry, Gu Yan, I shouldn’t have doubted you. Since I chose you, I need to trust you fully."
She cast all distractions out of her mind, refraining from further speculation and analysis. Otherwise, she would only confuse herself further.
She nestled in his arms and smiled faintly.
"We’ve gone through so many difficulties to be together. We should cherish everything and strive for a blissful future."
Her wishes had been fulfilled; she was with the man she had loved since youth. What more could she ask for?
She believed that she and Gu Yan would definitely be happy from now on.
Gu Yan held her tightly in his arms, a relieved smile on his face. A sense of regained happiness welled up, "Good, I will ask mom to prepare the wedding. From now on, we will be together forever."
...
"Third Young Master, I will do my utmost to suppress the news!" Feiyu looked at Third Young Master Jun’s cold and indifferent face and feeling upset, he was at a loss as to how to comfort him.
Third Young Master had become the laughingstock of the city tonight. He lost his woman in front of everyone, which was a tremendous blow to a man’s pride.
He could only strive to suppress the media’s news, but with so many people present, the news would certainly still spread privately.
