Chapter 3 His Tenderness Towards Her

Gu Tingchen hung up angrily.

I put my phone in my bag and was about to leave when I met the last person I wanted to see.

“Wen Ruyan.”

The woman that Gu Tingchen has always been in love with.

We saw each other. I smiled and tried to get around her to leave, but she called me gently, "Mrs. Gu, right?".

I stood and ask her with a glance, "what?".

"Are you happy being Mrs. Gu? "

Wen Ruyan was being provocative. It was not until then did I stare at her. Her face was very exquisite with light makeup, and she was wearing bright red lipstick. In such cold winter, she was in a thin pale pinkish grey dress. Outside the dress was a white coat, which covered her exquisite body.

She was indeed beautiful. No wonder that Gu Tingchen would love her.

Rivals in love are angry with each other. I didn't want to talk to her, but she went on to satirize me, "do you really think that you can be Mrs. Gu peacefully? Does Tingchen love you? Does he say love words to you? Does he cook for you? Does he pick presents for you during the holidays? No, Tingchen never does these for you! Shi Sheng, you were just able to be Mrs. Gu because of your status as the president of the Shi family."

Her words were devastating. Gu Tingchen had done everything she just said for her. I was indeed jealous of her, but what is the use of being jealous at this time?

I have even failed to keep my status as Mrs. Gu.

I smiled with indifference, "then what about you?" I gave you a chance three years ago. Whether you accept the reality or not, I have become Mrs. Gu. You're right. I forced Gu Tingchen to marry me using my status as the president of the Shi family, but you….. "

I could never tolerate offense from anybody.

I have held the principle that I would never start offending first but fight back at once if someone else offends me.

But, although I held such a principle, I had let Gu Tingchen humiliate me for three long years.

I smiled bitterly and said, "I have money, and can give Gu family enough money, but what about you? You have nothing. You have no power. How are you able to be Mrs. Gu? "

Hearing this, Wen Ruyan’s face turned pale. With tears in the eyes, she looked so poor that any man would be sympathetic to her.

Seeing that, I smiled coldly: "stop pretending to be poor, you hypocritical bitch. Unlike Gu Tingchen, I’m not going to be touched by that!"

As I just finished my words, Gu Tingchen protected her with his broad back. His black coat added to him a lot of apathy.

At the moment, he stared at me coldly.

He frowned, and made a guarding posture against me, fearing that I would bully Wen Ruyan.

He must have heard what I had just said, but he was a man who barely lost his temper. He squinted at me and asked in an indifferent voice, "why are you here?"

"I just had an appointment with a friend." I stared at Wen Ruyan, who was behind him, then I joked, "Tingchen, are you seeing your past lover behind me?"

Hearing me calling Wen Ruyan as his past lover, Gu Tingchen’s face turned ashen. He said, "go back to the villa, I will come home tonight."

His words sounded weird, as if he was taking pity on me by coming home.

Have I been so pathetic?

What was worse, he said it in such a tone in front of his ex-girlfriend.

I replied with a tone of self-mockery, "I'll go home, but I have to remind you. I don't mind her showing up, but your dad will."

Gu Tingchen stayed silent. By this time, Wen Ruyan stepped forward, grabbed my wrist and pretended to be pitiful, "miss Shi, don't misunderstand…. "

Not being used to touches from others, I subconsciously swung my hand, but Gu Tingchen took it for granted that I was trying to hit Wen Ruyan, so he directly grabbed her over and hugged her in his arms.

He used a lot of strength, causing me to fall to the ground because of inertia. My face hit directly against the cold ground.

I looked up in astonishment and saw Gu Tingchen touching Wen Ruyan’s head with his palm. He comforted her: "Ruyan, it's all right."

"Ruyan, it's all right."

Of course she was all right. Nothing had happened to her.

With face burning with pain, I covered my cheek and burst into laughter.

I was laughing at my stupidity, also laughing at myself for daydreaming.

Hearing me laughing, Gu Tingchen asked coldly, "what are you laughing at?"

Word for word, I told him clearly, "Tingchen, I just got hurt."

I was in a soft tone. Gu Tingchen was in a daze, and told his assistant who was standing aside to send me to the hospital. Then, he left with Wen Ruyan.

Before Wen Ruyan left, I saw her smiling triumphantly.

Gu Tingchen's assistant helped me to stand on my feet and was about to send me to the hospital.

I refused, and drove back to the villa for a hot bath.

The pain in the face came to me intermittently, but I seemed not to have felt it at all. I even scratched the wound with my sharp nail.

The better he treated her, the more pathetic I would be.

I closed my eyes, and then got up to write a divorce agreement. After signing my name on it solemnly, I put it in the drawer.

Thinking over, I went to the kitchen and cooked a table of dishes myself. Having finished everything, I sat in the living room waiting for Gu Tingchen.

He said he would come home tonight.

Gu Tingchen was never a man who would break his words.

¡­¡­

By three o'clock in the morning, there was a sound from outside the door. I slowly turned my head and looked at the direction. In the dark, Gu Tingchen turned on the lights. When he saw me sitting on the sofa, he was surprised. For one of the rare times after marriage, he asked, "still up?"

I walked to him and took over the coat he took off. There were some cool snowflakes on it, and even the light fragrance of perfume from hugging Wen Ruyan in the day.

I hung it silently. Gu Tingchen grabbed me over and directly began to take off my clothes as usual. His cold palm touched me, but I felt hot as if my skin was melting.

I gasped, leaned my body on his chest, and said in a soft tone, "Tingchen, I haven't had dinner yet."

I have never been angry with him, no matter however he bullied me. I always called him gently, because I was not willing to say any harsh words to Gu Tingchen, who had been warm in the past.

Although he is no longer been what used to be.

Gu Tingchen suddenly stopped. He slightly pushed me back and stared sharply at me. half a light way: "Shi Sheng, you have been strange since yesterday!"

"Gu Tingchen, I have something to tell you."
