Gu Ruochu was actually Huo's wife?
How was that possible!
How could Gu Ruochu have anything to do with Huo Nanchen?
Under everyone's astonished Gaze, Gu Ruochu did not show much emotion. She seemed to have gotten used to it. "I can't be bothered to say it."
"..."
"..."
Huo Nanchen ignored her willfulness and wrapped her hand in his palm. His other hand ran through her long hair and he then kissed her forehead in front of everyone.
"These people don't have the right to hurt Mrs. Huo."
There was silence everywhere as everyone's gaze was focused on the couple. It was as if they were the main attractions of the day. The reporters flashed their cameras relentlessly.
All they saw was a headline story. A noble and indifferent man was revealing his gentle side in front of this woman.
No one had ever seen him like this. Gu Ruochu couldn't deny that her heart was moved by his advances. When he kissed her, she closed her eyes subconsciously. Her eyes were a little sour.
The feeling was warm and sweet, but there was also a mixture of bitterness and pain.
His gentleness was like a poison that pierced through her intestines.
In her eyes, the only mistake he had made was failing to declare his love for her.
Huo Nanchen's appearance had alarmed everyone at the wedding. After the guests saw Huo Nanchen coaxing Gu Ruochu, they could only stare at the couple in amazement.
"I've come to thank Mr. Wang Xin and Mr. Wang for sparing Ruochu and allowing her to come to my side. I'm grateful for your kindness in not marrying her and for fulfilling our wishes."
Gu Ruochu felt like he was delivering an official speech.
Wang Xin's face was now contorted beyond recognition. His face alternated between green and white, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
He thought about how he had bumped into Huo Nanchen outside the Crimson clubhouse the night before. He had not thought much about it. Only now did he realize that they were husband and wife!
No wonder Gu Ruochu had looked at him with such cold and disdainful eyes. It turned out that she was no longer the same as before. She had transformed into a golden phoenix in a single leap. How could she fancy him now?
In her eyes, he was like a clown who kept jumping around in front of her. She must have laughed at him eight hundred times in her heart.
If there was a crack on the ground, he would have definitely crawled into it.
Lin Yufei and Xie Xuemei were devastated. Their faces were as pale as ghosts. Lin Yufei clutched Xie Xuemei's arm tightly. She could not believe what she was hearing. "How is this possible? This is absolutely impossible. How could Gu Ruochu..."
Xie Xuemei's face was even paler than Lin Yufei's. She could not believe that Gu Ruochu was of such noble status. Even though she thought that her son was an important figure in the city, she would never compare him to Huo Nanchen.
How had Gu Ruochu found a man who was so much better than her son? She had hoped that Gu Ruochu would obsess over her son for the rest of her life. She would then end up marrying an ordinary husband. In the end, she wanted Gu Ruochu to be miserable.
She had never in her wildest nightmares pictured a scene such as this.
"Hubby, since they didn't welcome us, there's no need for us to stay here any longer." Gu Ruochu did not bother to even look at the Wang family. She had always looked down on mistresses. She had only attended the wedding to fulfill Gu Yanwei's wish of trying to "humiliate" her.
Even though Gu Yanwei was not present, was it a coincidence that these women found fault with her. Could it be that her sister had nothing to do with this?
Gu Ruochu refused to believe it.
She knew that she was in a prestigious society, and a single misstep could ruin her reputation. However, she wouldn't let Gu Yanwei succeed in her malicious attempts to destroy her.
Lin Yufei's parents had no idea what had happened. When they heard Gu Ruochu's words, they grew anxious.
