20demayo Chapter 238 So Love Will Disappear
Chapter 238 So Love Will Disappear
Startled, perhaps feeling guilty, Yun Yao tiptoed out.
Just as she was about to leave the room, the bathroom door behind her opened with a "click".
Yun Yao: "..." I've never been so speechless in my life!
As soon as the door opened, the whole room was filled with dampness, and Yun Yao turned around stiffly.
"Ha, what a coincidence!"
The person opposite only had a towel tied around their waist, revealing their perfect figure nakedly.
Yun Yao shamelessly looked him up and down, her eyes brimming with obvious lust.
"Wanwan, are you sure it's just a coincidence that you're here?" Su Yuchen exposed her without any mercy.
Yun Yao: “…”
Didn't her ancestors have any dignity?
"Well, I just came to check if you were alright. Since you're fine, I'll be going now." With that, he hurriedly turned around.
But before she could take two steps, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.
"Wanwan, today is New Year's Eve."
"I...I know, so what?" Yun Yao felt a little guilty.
“We are husband and wife.” Su Yuchen’s magnetic and restrained voice rang out from behind him.
"Who said we're husband and wife? Don't you know what our relationship is now?"
When the person behind her fell silent, Yun Yao's heart trembled.
Inner monologue: It's not what you heard, my darling! You must firmly believe that I love you! How could I bear to hurt you? But the person who poisoned you hasn't been found yet, and I can't let you be in danger again. Besides, we've persevered for so long, the person behind this must be getting impatient. We can't let all our efforts go to waste!
Su Yuchen seemed to have heard her true thoughts, and suddenly loosened his grip.
"Sorry, I was presumptuous."
Yun Yao: "..." I really didn't mean that!
Alas, that’s all.
"Since President Su is alright, I'll be leaving now." Yun Yao's voice was tinged with bitterness.
This situation is clearly of our own making, so why add to the pain for both of us?
Yun Yao's figure was forlorn.
Su Yuchen's fingers twitched slightly as he resisted the urge to pull her into his arms.
"Wait for me outside," Su Yuchen said in a deep voice.
Yun Yao said "oh" and gently closed the door.
In just three minutes, Su Yuchen had already put on his clothes. Unlike his usual serious demeanor, he was surprisingly dressed in a very simple casual outfit.
The moment he appeared, Yun Yao couldn't take her eyes off him.
As expected, he is the man I have carefully selected over countless years; in every aspect, he is so... outstanding.
At this moment, Yun Yao remembered her ultimate purpose for coming down the mountain.
She wanted to figure out what the connection was between her soul and Su Yuchen's, and why his life or death could determine her slumber.
Judging from the current development, could they have been a match made in heaven ten thousand years ago?
"Wanwan, what are you thinking about?" Su Yuchen's voice pulled her back to reality.
Yun Yao quickly looked away and shook her head.
"nothing."
Just as Su Yuchen was about to speak, several unfamiliar voices suddenly entered his ears, and his expression suddenly darkened.
"Wanwan, someone's here. You go into the lounge first."
Yun Yao was puzzled. Why was Su Yuchen telling her to hide? Could it be that he had some unspeakable secret? Could it be... that he was seeing someone else?
Well, this suits her perfectly. At this crucial moment, she doesn't want the news that she and Su Yuchen haven't broken up to spread.
Yun Yao was lost in thought when she was pushed into the lounge.
Looking at the closed door, Yun Yao sighed helplessly.
What else can you do but spoil the person you chose?
Lying in bed, surrounded by the fragrance of Su Yuchen, Yun Yao felt a pang of longing.
At this moment, Su Yuchen had already guessed who the newcomer was. The doting and gentle demeanor he had shown towards Yun Yao had vanished, replaced by an extremely cold and aloof expression.
There was a knock on the office door. Su Yuchen lowered his eyes and answered, "Come in."
Xue Haoqian shoved Gu Huixin in, followed by Han Cailiang and Mu Wenyao, who were panting heavily.
"President Su, it's been a long time." Xue Haoqian smiled obsequiously.
Yun Yao was about to fall asleep in the lounge when a familiar voice suddenly reached her ears.
Xue Haoqian?
Yun Yao sat up with a start.
If it was them, then Yun Yao already knew why they had come.
Su Yuchen's expression turned slightly serious upon hearing Yun Yao's footsteps.
"Just say what brings you four here, I'm very busy." Su Yuchen's aloofness was truly on full display.
The four men looked grim, but at this critical juncture where their families faced life and death, they had no choice but to bow down to this callow youth.
Xue Haoqian smiled and pushed Gu Huixin in front of him.
"President Su, since that's the case, we brothers will get straight to the point. To be honest, our four families were manipulated by someone with ulterior motives a month ago. She is cunning and ruthless, and she has seized our weaknesses to make each family work for her."
"With her holding our lives in her hands, we dare not resist. That's why we offended you. Today, I've brought this culprit here for you to deal with as you see fit, hoping to quell your anger. Please, be magnanimous and spare us old folks!"
"President Su, we've tried countless times to persuade her to coexist peacefully with Yonsei International, but she just won't listen. There's nothing we can do!" Xue Haoqian's eyes reddened, as if he would burst into tears at any moment.
Yun Yao, who was eavesdropping at the door, heard Xue Haoqian's "heartfelt words" and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
They're really ruthless! Are they going to abandon the Gu family? Tsk, as expected, there's no room for sentiment when it comes to profit!
Yun Yao shook her head. She wasn't interested in Xue Haoqian's explanation, but she was very curious about what Su Yuchen would say.
But the next second, she almost kicked the door open and ran out.
Su Yuchen glanced at the lounge area, then subtly looked away.
"You've got the wrong person. I'm not interested in what's between you. The door is over there."
Xue Haoqian and the others: "???"
Yun Yao: "..." It's one thing if others don't know, but don't you know that this was my whole plan?
Xue Haoqian and the others thought that this was Su Yuchen's deliberate act. He pushed Gu Huixin hard, and the already disheveled Gu Huixin lost her balance and knelt on the ground.
"President Su, I'll have her apologize to you right away."
Gu Huixin raised her eyes with difficulty. She looked at Su Yuchen, her pride worn away, leaving only frustration and pain.
"President Su, I was blinded by greed. I'm sorry. I'm willing to accept any punishment you give me, including all of the Gu family's assets. I, Gu Huixin, will offer them all up. I only hope you can be lenient towards the other three families."
Xue Haoqian and his two companions stared coldly at Gu Huixin on the ground, seemingly certain of their victory.
They thought that handing over Gu Huixin would appease Su Yuchen's anger, but they were clearly overthinking it.
Su Yuchen closed the document in his hand and slowly raised his eyes to look at her.
"If I wanted to take action, I wouldn't have waited until now. The person you're looking for is Yun Yao, not me."
After Su Yuchen finished speaking, the person inside the door was already clenching their fists so tightly they were cracking.
So love can disappear, right?
