Gu Jingze placed his newspaper down and looked at Li Yun calmly.He did nothing; said nothing but Li Yun felt scared .This was one of the many times she realized that Gu Jingze was a dangerous man .The only person he was calm and gentle was Qi Chenxi and not her , what made her retort him in such a way ?
"Not my concern, then whose concern is it ? " asked Gu Jingze sarcastically .
His gaze had gotten even colder ; Li Yun didn't realized it but In Gu Jingze 's mind he was certain that his wife was hiding a man from him .
Li Yun heart was almost in her throat when she saw the chilling look Gu Jingze threw her way but she still collected her strength and nodded " I know you hate me ; With our marriage you had no other option ; you could only fulfill your Grandpa 's wish .But I know I'm not the woman in your heart , Elder master Gu , you cannot expect me to be loyal to you when you yourself are not setting a clear example , while I do not comment on your Ex girlfriend and lover coming in and out of house that doesn't mean that other's dont .Because of your willful actions my reputation in the higher socialites is in shreds ; You want me to tell you with whom I met but what about you have I ever asked what you do when you meet with your lover,.Elder master Gu its true that you let Miss Qi wrong , but what about me ? you never explained your situation to me , you only told me about Miss Qi once we got married , then don't you think you owe me too?"
Li Yun was scared she was really scared but she still kept her voice steady , her speech was gentle and affluent but it deeply shook both Gu Jingze 's and Xu Yi 's heart .
Gu Jingze looked at Li Yun and for the first time he realized that Li Yun never confronted him on Qi Chenxi 's matter, every time Qi Chenxi came to their house Li Yun would either go out or shut herself in her room , she never pried in his life .
"You.." Gu Jingze wanted to say something but a soft voice interrupted him .
"Jingze" Qi Chenxi called Gu Jingze intimately ,as for Li Yun who was Gu Jingze 's wife called him Elder master Gu.
"Why are you here?" For the first time in his life Gu Jingze felt annoyed by Qi Chenxi 's untimely arrival .Li Yun was right , they were married yet he allowed His past lover to visit him in their matrimonial home , what kind of rumours might be flying around? Gu Jingze who paid so much thought on the pride of the future matriarch of Gu Family , realized that he himself shredded the pride Li Yun has .
Li Yun might be temporary but she was still his wife , his actions was really too careless .
He wanted to explain to Li Yun that he and Qi Chenxi weren't lovers anymore and won't be unless he divorces her but before he could Qi Chenxi arrived.
"I got ticket for the latest Opera! and I even booked a table at Lili's ! You know how hard it is to book a table for at that restaurant!" Qi Chenxi pouted and chidded Gu Jingze coyishly .
Li Yun felt goosebumps rise in her body ; Xu Yi felt an urge to vomit even Gu Jingze felt that Qi Chenxi 's actions were getting more and more out of hands .Yes;He allowed her to visit him but only because he felt guilty , he thought that he let Qi Chenxi down thus he tried to make up to her but didn't he let Li Yun down too?
"I will be going then " Li Yun didn't want to spend even a moment with Gu Jingze and Qi Chenxi therefore she rushed out . Gu Jingze wanted to call out to her but Qi Chenxi stopped him .
"Jingze ; Am I not welcome here anymore ?" Qi Chenxi who was smiling like a flower a moment ago suddenly started to sob .
Watching her cry Gu Jingze could not say anything
"No , she was just in rush .She had a meeting scheduled" trying to placate Qi Chenxi ; Gu Jingze spoke truthfully .
"Oh , is she meeting her friend do you know them? Gu Jingze even if you and her are married for convenience don't let Her to bring shame to Gu family.Jingze I'm really worried, what if she meets with a guy . Won't your family be ashamed?"
Qi Chenxi spoke quite gently .
She spoke in such a way as if she was genuinely worried about Li Yun , she felt that the nicer she was to Li Yun the more Gu Jingze would believe her but this time her move was wrong .Gu Jingze who was just scoldee by Li Yun for being a busybody frowned .
What did Qi Chenxi meant by this , if she was so worried about Gu family reputation why didn't she reduced her visit in his house? Infact her visits seems to have increased in the past few months . For the first time Gu Jingze saw Qi Chenxi in a diffrent light .
*****
Li Yun who rushed out of her house had no idea that Gu Jingze started to use his EQ after her scolding . She caught a bus and made her way to XY road .
At the end of the street , a rundown shop stood .Its windows were boarded up and the interior was filled with cardboard boxes .When Li Yun pushed the door open a young men came rushing out .
"We are shutting down; " The young was quite rude
"Mufan ; don't be rude " an old man in his late fifty's , chided The young man . This man was Ye Han , her father's rival.A few years ago he was a talented business man . His business was booming but then her father made him lose everything .The reason Li Yun chose Ye Han was because this man was really honest . If he was scheming like her father than he would still be a rich business man .
"Miss, we are closing down " spoke Ye Han gently .
"I'm not here to buy , I'm here to sell "
"Didn't you hear it , we are closing down! What buy what sell !" Ye Mufan was a second generation rich heir; if not for those dark schemes, he would still be rich ! He got poor but his temper was still the same as ever .
"Mr .Ye would you please listen?" Li Yun ignored Ye Mufan and spoke directly to Ye Han .
Ye Han looked at Li Yun 's shining eyes and confident aura ; he couldn't understand it but she made him feel secure .Before he knew it he nodded .
Li Yun smiled but Ye Mufan scowled and shouted at his father but Ye Han ignored Him and invited Li Yun inside .
"Miss please speak your mind " Ye Han was a straightforward person therefore he didn't like to waste even a minute .
"I heard you are bankrupt but I have some designs, I hope you can see them .I cannot help you to clear your debt but I hope my designs can help you " Li Yun didn't beat around the bush and spoke clearly ; she told them that she cannot pay them , they have to pay for the expenses on their own .
"Nonsense! we are already head first in debt! how can we ask for more loan!" Ye Mufan refused at once he wouldn't allow his father to increase his debts .
"Mufan , your design please Miss " Ye Han warned Mufan and asked Li Yun for her designs. He wouldn't make a decision without understanding what he was getting into .
Li Yun nodded but only showed a single design , this design was of a really exquisite jade hairpin. It had a delicate rose made on top of it with a single small butterfly wing on its left , two blue diamonds were hanging by its side with silver beads string , with a even more smaller rose on its end .
Ye Han was stunned the jade hairpin was so beautiful he had no words to praise it , even Ye Mufan was stunned .
"Miss?"
"I have more designs but I cannot show it without the contract signing; I can give you two days , you and your family can think about it afterall you guys will be taking risks with me " With that Li Yun stood up to leave but Ye Han stopped her .
"No wait , Miss let's sign .let me see the contract "
Ye Han wasn't stupid ; he knew that Li Yun didn't show him her best work instead she showed him only her most average work . If her average design was so beautiful ; then what about her most finest work?
"Alright" Li Yun agreed
her contract she was made beneficial for both the party thus Ye Han and Li Yun agreed at once , even though Ye Mufan protested that 50 -50 per cent of sharing their earnings was unfair because he and his family was the one who were taking the most risks but Ye Han silenced him with his glare .
Once the contract signing was finished Li Yun explained Ye Han the selling strategy; only fifty pieces will be made of every design and those who buyed it earlier will have to pay less however who ordered from them later on will need to pay whatever price Ye family set for them
.
Ye Han agreed with Whatever Li Yun said and sent her off with a very respectful attitude .
