Li Xingze trembled with fright and hurriedly explained, "Brother, you've got it all wrong... Rufeng, he... he was just joking!"
Gu Mian raised her eyes, and her gaze collided with Li Tingshen's in midair.
For a moment, complex emotions surged in the depths of both their eyes.
Li Tingshen strode forward with his long legs and walked directly to Gu Mian's side, wrapping one arm around her slender waist.
"Mr. He's joke seems to have gone a bit too far."
He Rufeng was taken aback and quickly stood up, saying earnestly, "Tingshen, I'm not joking, I'm serious."
Li Xingze raised his hand to cover his face, with an expression that said 'you're beyond help'.
"Oh?" Li Tingshen curled his lips, but the smile stopped at the corner of his eyes, "There are many who covet my wife, but you're the first to propose in public."
He Rufeng frowned, "Tingshen, you and Gu Mian are already divorced. She's a free woman now, I have the right to pursue her."
