"Brother, it seems that you don't even want to pretend to me..." Shi Mo's eyes were full of sadness that only he could touch.
"is it necessary?"
Shi Ye's voice was still cold, and he still treated outsiders with the same dignity as words.
This made Shi Mo, who wanted to be close to his brother, very desperate.
"Brother, you regard me as your enemy, right?"
Shi Mo smiled bitterly in his heart, savoring his role in Shi Ye's heart.
In response, Shi Ye did not respond, nor did he look at Shi Mo.
"Brother...I never wanted to go against you...Actually, I..."
Shi Mo suddenly felt a lump in his throat and his eyes were a little sore.
But just as he was about to continue speaking, he was interrupted by Shi Ye's cold words.
"There's no need to explain so much to me, it's pointless."
"No matter what your purpose is, every time I see you, I will think of the past."
Shi Ye's words were like thousands of arrows shooting at Shi Mo.
It hurts!
Shi Mo gritted his teeth and swallowed back the pain in his heart.
Then he forced out his usual cynical look and faced Shi Ye.
"Aren't you afraid that I will make this matter public? If the media knows that your marriage partner is not your savior, won't you be afraid of the pressure of public opinion?"
Shi Ye glanced at Shi Mo and said, "You can give it a try."
Then he took Gu Nian's hand, passed Shi Mo, and walked straight to Yunfu Villa.
Looking at Shi Ye's retreating back, Shi Mo felt like he was drowning in his endless sadness again.
elder brother……
Is there nothing in this world that can make you stay in front of me for a second longer?
Since Shi Ye was fifteen years old, his destiny has undergone earth-shaking changes because of Shi Mo's appearance.
Originally he was a man who was loved by his mother, but from then on, he began to feel boundless loneliness.
But, brother, do you know?
You have been happy for fifteen years, but I have been a hidden person from the moment I was born.
Everyone around you will treat you with a smile in person.
But when he turns around, he will only insult himself as an illegitimate child and the product of destroying other people's families.
No one really loves me.
Even his own mother was just using her as a tool to force her to have a baby.
Until the first time I met you, you clearly knew that my appearance was a knife that stung you, but you still touched my head gently.
This made me feel for the first time what it feels like to be "not afraid".
However, this feeling was so short-lived. In just one day, I could no longer experience it.
Shi Ye almost kept holding Gu Nian's hand as he walked into the Yun Mansion Villa, watching as they were about to disappear.
But Shi Mo was still stunned in place.
"Bah!"
Suddenly, a car behind him that was about to enter the community honked its horn, signaling for Shi Mo to step aside.
Shi Mo was startled, and the gift box and card in his hand accidentally fell to the ground.
But he didn't give way immediately.
He just stood there, bent down, picked up the card, and then picked up the gift box. After opening the box, he saw a pile of burnt cream cake inside.
The words "Happy Wedding" on it are still vaguely visible.
He spent a whole night working on it, specifically asking the chef of the bakery to learn how to make it himself.
Next to the cake was the toy car that Shi Ye had given to Shi Mo.
Shi Mo originally wanted to use this gift box to tell his brother that in his heart, he actually wanted to bless his brother.
However, now the cake is no longer formed, just like his original pure heart.
"Bah!"
There was another urging sound from the horn.
"Damn it, are you looking for death? You're blocking the gate for nothing, like a god of plague!"
The car owner who was originally going to drive into the community lost his patience when he saw Shi Mo hadn't given way yet, and yelled at Shi Mo.
Shi Mo ignored it and just continued to pack the gift box and hold it in his arms.
After cleaning up for five minutes, he got up and returned to his motorcycle.
Maybe he had been waiting for a long time, and the car owner had already reached the limit of his patience. Although Shi Mo walked away, he still "cut" at Shi Mo arrogantly and added another sentence.
"What an unlucky man!"
After saying that, he prepared to continue driving into the community.
But, right now.
Just listen to the roar of a locomotive starting.
"Boom!"
In the car, the car owner, who was quite arrogant at first, was completely confused for an instant. He almost twisted the back of his neck under the shock.
He hugged his neck and looked back.
It turned out that the young man who blocked his way just now actually hit his car.
The rear car glass was completely shattered.
I only heard the young man looking at me fiercely, with a hint of evil in the corner of his mouth.
"Who the hell are you calling bad luck?"
＊＊＊
Shi Mo took Gu Nian back to the villa.
Gu Nian kept his head down, not daring to raise his head to look at Shi Ye.
"What's wrong? I was feeling downcast all the way."
Shi Ye naturally caught Gu Nian's look, but he was as calm as if nothing happened.
"Mr. Shi, does it really not matter?" Gu Nian was a little anxious.
Shi Ye didn't reply, just walked into the kitchen and took out the four dishes and one soup that Zhang Ma had left in the thermal insulation steamer.
"Hurry up and eat! I'm so hungry!"
However, how could Gu Nian be in the mood to eat right now.
Although she didn't know all about Shi Ye's company and his family, which he never wanted to mention, her words were enough to imagine that a catastrophe of unknown magnitude might be brewing.
"Why don't you sit down? This spicy shrimp dish won't taste good when it's cold!"
When Shi Ye said this, he deliberately bent down and smelled the aroma of the food.
"Well, as expected of Zhang Ma, this craftsmanship is so delicious when you smell it!"
Gu Nian: "..."
But the more Shi Ye looked indifferent, the less confident Gu Nian felt.
After all, she was the trigger.
The insurance contract was signed by her, and Shi Mo discovered it.
"Mr. Shi... I can't eat... I want to go back to the room first."
Gu Nian felt that she was really in a terrible state. After saying that, she turned around and just wanted to hide herself in the room.
"Gu Nian!"
At this time, Shi Ye was behind her and called Gu Nian to stop.
Then Shi Ye walked over to Gu Nian and said softly:
"Gu Nian, I told you, if you don't eat, I won't eat either."
"So...do you want to see me hungry tonight?"
Shi Ye raised his eyebrows, teasing Gu Nian.
But how could Gu Nian have the intention to be teased by him?
"Mr. Shi, it's all my fault. If you blame me, I might feel better."
"But the more you act indifferently, the more guilty I...I feel."
"I...I'm thinking, how about...let's get divorced as soon as possible! This way, you won't be criticized by them..."
divorce.
It was the only solution Gu Nian could think of.
Beyond that, she felt like there was nothing she could do.
However, Gu Nian suddenly felt reluctant to give up.
Although the marriage between her and Shi Ye was just a fake marriage and was only valid for eight months, she really wanted to end everything so suddenly.
There was an inexplicable sadness in her heart, and the feeling of powerlessness turned into clouds in front of her eyes. After a while, she would condense into tears.
"Mr. Shi, I'm really sorry..."
Gu Nian didn't know what else to say except "I'm sorry."
"Gu Nian."
Shi Ye gently called her name.
Gu Nian raised his head and looked at Shi Ye with tearful eyes.
"The contract is not over yet, and I don't want to hear you say the word 'divorce' again."
Shi Ye emphasized seriously.
Gu Nian's eyes flickered a few times, and two lines of tears flowed down.
Because of……
Do you still need me to help Miss Du guard your position as "wife"?
Because Du Yucheng hasn't come back yet, you have to let me continue to replace her.
So, we can’t divorce yet?
Gu Nian said silently in his heart.
But she just kept these words in her heart.
"But now, what should we do..." Gu Nian lowered his head and his voice was very weak.
Shi Ye smiled tenderly at Gu Nian, and then pulled her back to the dining table.
"Sit down! Eat! That's what we should do now!"
After saying that, Shi Ye returned to his dining chair and sat down.
Then he helped Gu Nian fill a bowl of rice and put a prawn into her bowl.
"This dish is Zhang Ma's specialty, try it!"
They spoke a few words and acted like a married couple.
Gu Nian looked at Shi Ye, she felt like the sky was falling down at this moment, but there was no trace of panic on Shi Ye's face.
Shi Ye smiled at Gu Nian again and said nothing.
Just like he said, all the two of them have to do now is eat.
Gu Nian could only bury her head, fulfill Shi Ye's request, pick up the food in the bowl and put it into her mouth.
However, at this moment that she couldn't see, Shi Ye raised his head and looked at her.
Shi Ye knew that Gu Nian wouldn't be able to calm down with just two simple words of comfort.
There were just some things that he didn't want Gu Nian to get involved in too much.
The shopping mall is like a battlefield. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.
Shi Ye's enemy was never Shi Mo, but the Zhu Group behind him.
Over the years, Shi Mo had already clearly predicted the enemy.
What Zhu wants is nothing more than to get involved in the Baichen Group through marriage.
Although Shi Ye has announced his marriage to the public, based on his understanding of the Zhu family, they should have been waiting for the opportunity.
Once Shi Ye's marriage breaks down, Zhu's public relations team will bite him like flies.
When the time comes, they will use the company's future as an excuse to force Shi Ye and Zhu Yuefei to marry.
Therefore, as long as Shi Ye's marriage is still there, Zhu will have no chance of getting involved.
Again, Gu Nian is innocent. She has already endured enough pressure, even though she and she are only married by contract...
But Shi Ye still wanted to protect her.
Let Gu Nian keep it simple. After eight months, give her her freedom and help her live a better life.
All of this has nothing to do with whether she is someone's replacement.
＊＊＊
Yuncheng, a police station somewhere.
Shi Mo was sitting on a chair, bleeding from the corner of his mouth. One hand was handcuffed to the armrest next to him. Next to him were the gift box he was going to give to Shi Ye and the unsigned card.
A policeman was taking notes with the owner of the car.
The car owner's face was also stained, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he was obviously more seriously injured than Shi Mo.
-"Tell me about the situation at that time."
- "Mr. Police, this kid blocked the door of my community for no reason. I asked him to give way, but he refused to give in as if he was deaf. Later, he rode his bicycle and hit my car for no reason."
-"Then how did you start fighting?"
-"Mr. Policeman, I really didn't do it first! I just got out of the car to argue with this guy. Before I could finish my words, he swung his fist at me... I was so fucking unlucky. ”
…
Che Zhishu followed the police angrily and described the situation at that time.
Shi Mo sat aside, eyes slightly closed, silent.
The only thing that comes to mind is what the car owner said——
"What an unlucky man."
He stayed in front of Shi Mo for a long time, constantly reminding him of the meaning of existence.
