Chapter 177

Bang!

Qin Muchen could hear the sound of the door being closed from the inside of the restaurant when Si Ziyue left, and he sat before the dining table with his face livid with rage.

After some time, he sweeped everything on the table off to the floor.

The place was left at sixes and sevens with plates as well as unfinished food strewn all over.

With his gaze turning cold, his hands, which were resting on the edge of the table, slowly clenched into fists.

Several minutes later, he withdrew his hands from the table in an unhurried movement before heading to the exit with his phone in his hands. When he was on his way out, he made a call to someone and said, "Reveal some clues about how Su Yige went through drug rehabilitation overseas to the Gong Family."

As soon as Su Ziyue walked out of Lumiere Jade House, she hailed a taxi and left but she had no idea where to go.

The taxi driver turned around and questioned, "Miss, where would you like to go?"

After pondering it over and checking the time on her phone, she said, "Su Tower, please."

Fortunately, she could still go to work.

When she got out of the taxi in front of the entrance of Su Tower, she spotted Gong Zeyang.

He was standing by his car, wearing a black suit. He seemed to have shedded some weight but it just made him look all the more distinguished and noble, a type of aura which was exclusive to young masters of wealthy families.

When Su Ziyue noticed him, her vision glided past him without lingering for even one second but she was stunned for a moment when she spotted the black Rolls-Royce parked behind him.

Then, she made her way toward Su Tower in large strides.

Gong Zeyang had been waiting for her since early morning. Now that he finally saw her, it went without saying that he would not let her go so easily.

He caught up with her and grabbed hold of her hands in a quick and accurate movement.

Looking annoyed, Su Ziyue turned around and demanded, "Gong Zeyang, let me go!"

As Qin Muchen had worn her out last night, she did not look well today. Instead of loosening his hold on her hands as per her request, Gong Zeyang asked her, "I suppose you haven't had your breakfast yet. Come, let's grab a bite."

Not having the energy to deal with people, Su Ziyue found his badgering vexatious.

It was with much effort did she manage to wrestle her arm out of Gong Zeyang's hold.

"Please behave yourself. I'm a married woman and I don't want to be seen jostling with men other than my husband. You might not care about your image but I do."

After she finished making the statement with an icy look, she was ready to go.

Fortunately, it was not the peak hour during which people would be rushing to get to work. Otherwise, she wouldn't know how to explain herself if she was seen jostling with Gong Zeyang.

Although she was not worried because her conscience was clear, she did not want to bring unnecessary trouble upon herself.

"Su Ziyue!"

A woman's voice which sounded familiar to her was heard. Su Ziyue, who stopped walking forward, turned around only to replace herself being slapped by Su Yige.

"I knew Zeyang wouldn't call off the engagement with me for no reason at all. You're already a married woman, so why are you still pestering him?"

Although Su Yige was wearing branded goods from head to toe, anyone who knew her well enough could tell that she had not made an effort to doll up herself today.

"You might see him as treasure but to me, he's nothing. So, you only have yourself to blame for not being able to keep your own man. My..." man is better than him by all means.

Yet, she could no longer utter such a comment now which she could have done easily any other day after what took place last night.

Su Yige, who was not interested to listen to the latter part of her sentence, sneered while she turned around to face Gong Zeyang. "Did you hear that? Although you're trying so hard to please her, you're nothing to her."

"Shut up!"

Gong Zeyang's face already looked sullen when he heard the comment from Su Ziyue just now. Now that Su Yige had spelled it out again, he could only yell at her out of embarrassment.

He strongly believed that Su Ziyue still had feelings for him.

Over the past few days, Su Yige had been feeling tired both physically and mentally over Gong Zeyang's decision to call off his engagement with her. It was a huge blow to her because only she knew how deeply in love she was with him.

She did not even bother to put up the pretence she usually did.

"Even if I keep quiet, it will do nothing to hide the fact that Su Ziyue is not interested in you because she's one ambitious girl. Do you know why she turns her nose up even at your identity as Young Master Gong? It's because she's long hooked up with the president of LK Group, who is so successful that you might not be able to surpass even after working hard for your entire life!"

It was hard to relate the woman who was speaking so bitterly and sarcastically now to the woman who was once the Young Lady of the Su Family.

Although Gong Zeyang wanted to call off his engagement with her, he had intended to do it in a peaceful manner at first.

Yet, he had accidentally blurted out his decision during a dinner several days ago after having too many drinks. Just like that, his decision had quickly spread and became the talk of the town.

In the end, the news had become so widespread that some of the unscrupulous media companies had directly reported it in order to attract more readers.

Although this was not how Gong Zeyang had wanted to do it, he did not ask the media companies to withdraw the articles.

Later on, more and more companies had been sharp enough to catch the juicy news and because of that, news articles regarding him calling off his engagement with Su Yige mushroomed.

Therefore, he had been feeling bad for Su Yige at first because of the way he had allowed his decision to be made known to the public. But now, he no longer felt remorseful after seeing how bitter Su Yige was behaving now.

Su Ziyue jeered, "I'm capable of hooking up with the president of LK Group but can you do the same?"

She did not care about what exactly Gong Zeyang and Su Yige wanted and she did not care how acrimonious their dispute was going to be. But now, they had involved her in their mess.

As she was too in a foul mood, she was not about to say any nice things.

Yet, what she said was also a huge blow to Gong Zeyang.

Is she really in a relationship with the president of LK Group?

"Ziyue, is what you just said true?" Gong Zeyang, who couldn't be bothered by Su Yige, walked over and grabbed hold of Su Ziyue's shoulder while he gaped at her in disbelief.

Su Ziyue found it really difficult to understand men because both Qin Muchen and Gong Zeyang behaved in the same way.

She remembered that she had made her disinterest or even detestation clear toward Gong Zeyang every time he visited her. But now, he was reacting as though he had just learnt his wife was being unfaithful to him, which was something puzzling to Su Ziyue.

"Watch your man's behavior or I'll get the security guards over here immediately." Su Ziyue glanced at Gong Zeyang first before turning to look at Su Yige.

With her face looking slightly distorted with rage, Su Yige walked over in silence to pull Gong Zeyang away from Su Ziyue. "Let's have a talk."

Perhaps Gong Zeyang was trying to spare himself from more embarrassment, he allowed himself to be pulled away without resisting her.

After tidying up her clothes with an expressionless face, Su Ziyue looked up and cast a glance at Su Yige and Gong Zeyang who were both looking extremely glum.

As Su Yige was just about to walk away together with Gong Zeyang, Su Ziyue said, "Hold on."

"What more do you want from us?" Su Yige roared after she turned around.

Su Yige was not bothered to act pleasant anymore perhaps because they already had a fallout.

With a sneer, Su Ziyue strutted over, lifted her hand and slapped her across her face. "This is payback for what you did just now."
