Chapter 80

Gu Yinghong's eyes reddened, and her palm tingled. But looking at the vulgar and shameless appearance of the man in front of her, her eyes gradually changed from anger to calm, and finally to indifference.

She slowly raised the corners of her mouth, thinking in her mind about how to ruthlessly stab a knife into the heart of this cold and ruthless man, so that he could also experience the piercing pain that she had felt.

But a man like him, arrogant and aloof, would naturally not be knocked down by her few trivial words.

Now, she had already ruined half of his future prospects, and tied him together with a woman like Gu Jia.

But this was far from enough.

He married into the Gu family, and although the reputation spread out would not sound very nice, how could Gu Jia and Mrs. Liu not make arrangements for this brother-in-law of theirs?

Mrs. Liu had always had some connections, and her old lady friends who had received titles by now, if they sent gifts and money, could probably fight for some achievements for him.

A man like him, everyone was just a stepping stone for him to climb up. He was heartless and had probably never truly loved anyone.

Gu Yinghong suddenly smiled, her picture-like eyebrows opened up, and her smile was as beautiful as a flower.

She solemnly looked into the man's deep eyes, put her small hand on his chest, and said sincerely, "Jiang Yin, what if I tell you that I really was your wife before?"

Jiang Yin's heart skipped a beat as he stared fiercely at her.

Gu Yinghong was still smiling, smiling carefreely. "I loved you more than I loved myself. I was willing to abandon my dignity and status for you, and give my life for you. But so what? I suddenly woke up and regretted it. Most importantly—"

Her beautiful eyes fell on Jiang Yin's pale handsome face. She really felt that she had let go of her obsession with him, so her heart would no longer feel self-pity because of his indifference. She smiled breezily and said word for word, "Jiang Yin, I don't love you anymore."

Jiang Yin's eyes turned cold. He grabbed her hand tightly and gritted his teeth. "Gu Yinghong, what nonsense are you talking about!" Gu Yinghong struggled free of his grip. Her small hand moved up and stroked his prominent handsome brow. She murmured, "A Yin, do you think I'm really talking nonsense?"

Being called A Yin made Jiang Yin's whole body tremble. A strange feeling rose up in his heart.

They looked into each other's eyes, and everything around them seemed to have frozen.

He remembered those dreams he had been having about her recently, in the dreams, she loved him wholeheartedly, she was his wife, she had tried so hard just to give him a son and a daughter, she loved him so much...

He clenched his fists tightly, looking at Gu Yinghong's indifference on her face. A nameless sourness quickly spread throughout his body. "A Ying, I..."

Halfway through his words, his head was in excruciating pain, and his heart felt like being clutched and crushed by a big hand, the pain made him bleed.

"Ah--"

He couldn't help but let out a low roar, holding his head in pain, staggering and almost falling to the ground several times. His handsome face was twisted.

Gu Yinghong's state of mind was unprecedentedly peaceful. She blinked her eyes, forced back the tears that she had been enduring, lowered her head expressionlessly, and stroked the wrinkles on her clothes. "Master Jiang, I will pretend I didn't see you today. If you pester me again, I can only hand you over to Grandmother and Eldest Sister."

Jiang Yin's mind went blank as he stared blankly at the smoky pink skirt passing by in front of him.

After a while, the woman had already left with her maidservant.

He closed his eyes fiercely, the pain in his chest was like being stabbed by a blade, and it took him a long time before the pain became more and more unbearable.

How could this be? What was real? Why did she say again that she was his wife...

But if she really was his wife, why was her eldest sister now engaged to him?

He painfully clutched his head again. Gu Yinghong's charming voice kept haunting him.

"A Yin! A Yin! Do I look good in this dress?"

"Do you like me wearing this? It's so revealing that I really don't feel comfortable wearing it, but if you like it, I...I can try."

"A Yin, do you prefer a son or a daughter?"

"A Yin, I made your favorite food today. Will you come home and eat with me after work today?"

"A Yin, A Yin, it’s thundering, I’m so scared, hug me, okay?"

"A Yin...what if I can't conceive your child...will you abandon me..." "A Yin, our child is gone..."

In his mind, she looked pitiful, helpless, and in tears.

She once loved him so much, why was she so cold-hearted now?

"Gu Yinghong! What spell have you cast on me!" Jiang Yin shook his head violently, punching the wall angrily with his fist, his bloodshot eyes violent and fierce. "Don't think you can escape from my palm. Never!"

...

Gu Yinghong felt suffocated in her chest. After leaving Jiang Yin, her ghastly little face eased up.

Yin Lan had been frightened all this time, holding her hand tightly, using her own palm's warmth to convey to her, "Miss, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Gu Yinghong smiled absently at her and said gratefully, "Don't tell anyone about today."

Yin Lan: "Between the young master Jiang and you..."

Gu Yinghong: "We have nothing. I just said those things to fool him."

Yin Lan didn't know what had happened. Seeing her pale, sorrowful and confused look, her heart ached. "This servant understands, don't worry Miss."

Gu Yinghong smiled bitterly. She didn't know what had provoked her to say those reckless words to Jiang Yin today either. Obviously she shouldn't have been so impulsive. But she just couldn't stand to see him well off.

She was in pain, so she wanted him to suffer with her.

So she didn't regret it, she even wanted to play bigger.

Unfortunately, Jiang Yin was different from her. He didn't have the memories from their previous life. Otherwise, if he knew that she had ruined his prospect of becoming the top minister, he would probably vomit blood.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help laughing out loud again. "Yin Lan, have you ever hated someone before?"

Yin Lan tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Yes, hated before."

Gu Yinghong asked, "What happened to that person now?" Yin Lan smiled and said, "Now he's buried in the ground, I'm afraid he's almost turned into a handful of dirt. Back then, he wronged me and caused me to lose a child in my belly. Later, when he was drunk, I took the chance and killed him. It was the lady who helped me bury him and got me off the hook. In the end, she was even willing to take me in to serve in the Censorate."

Gu Yinghong was taken aback, "So the real ruthless one turned out to be you!"

Yin Lan blinked. "Is the young miss scared?"
