“`

Adults who have experienced the ways of the world all know what that sound signifies.

Wen Qing, the butler’s face revealed a hint of embarrassment.

Old Madam Gu’s brows furrowed deeply. Wasn’t the room next door a guest room?

Who was in there?

Shi Yuan?

Making such a sound in someone else’s home, a trace of displeasure appeared on Old Madam Gu’s dignified face.

Upon hearing such a sound, Song Yuzhi quickly recognized it as Shi Yuan’s.

She wasn’t in Gu Siting’s room but in the guest room instead?

She must have hidden in the guest room after having an argument with Ming Yao, right?

With that thought, a smile curled up at the corners of Song Yuzhi’s mouth.

Shi Yuan must have made that sound deliberately to lure her and Old Madam Gu over.

“Mother, since Shi Yuan is in the guest room, I will go and call her out to ask about the situation,” said Song Yuzhi, glancing at Gu Siting, “Siting, you have to keep your word.”

Gu Siting forced a smile, veiled in ambiguity, “As long as Ms. Song has no objections, I naturally won’t say anything.”

Seeing Gu Siting so compliant, Song Yuzhi was slightly taken aback.

She sensed something was amiss, yet she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly it was!

But it was enough as long as he was willing to take responsibility for Shi Yuan!

Song Yuzhi approached the guest room door, knocked, and said with a tinge of concern in her voice, “Shi Yuan, don’t be scared, Siting said he will take responsibility for sleeping with you.”

There was no response from inside.

Song Yuzhi turned the doorknob, and the door quickly opened.

The corners of Song Yuzhi’s lips rose into a smile as she walked inside.

She expected the room to contain only Shi Yuan, yet there seemed to be two figures under the covers.

They were in the midst of—

Before Song Yuzhi could come to terms with what was happening, she heard a hoarse male voice, “Little vixen.”

The smile at the corners of Song Yuzhi’s lips instantly froze.

Her eyes slowly shifted, spying clothes scattered all over the floor.

Among them were the garments of a man she recognized.

Song Yuzhi’s breathing became suddenly labored and heavy.

She made her way to the bed with heavy steps.

She abruptly flipped back the covers.

Witnessing the scene before her, she felt as though she might collapse.

Her mind malfunctioned, buzzing in her ears.

The blood in her veins seemed to be flowing backward.

Silence, a deathly stillness, prevailed.

The person on the bed seemed to sense that something was amiss and turned to glance back at her.

Her eyes met the bloodshot gaze of the man.

The man appeared to come to his senses, looked at Song Yuzhi, then at Shi Yuan.

He frowned deeply and snatched the covers back from Song Yuzhi’s hand.

Hastily dressing, he stood beside the bed.

“Aren’t you going out yet?” Gu Mingde growled lowly at Song Yuzhi.

Song Yuzhi, seeing the scratch marks on Gu Mingde’s neck and the lipstick stain on his face, felt her brain was about to explode.

A chill surged up from the soles of her feet.

She shook her head incessantly, unwilling to believe that the man before her could be Gu Mingde!

It should have been Gu Siting!

Old Madam Gu and the others, unaware of what had transpired in the room, walked in to find Gu Mingde standing there, as well as Shi Yuan wrapped in the covers. Old Madam Gu’s face underwent a dramatic change.

“What’s going on here?”

Gu Mingde and Shi Yuan?

Wasn’t this a complete mess?

Old Madam Gu bellowed, and Shi Yuan, who wasn’t fully lucid, also slowly regained her wits.

All along, she had mistaken Gu Mingde for Gu Siting.

She thought she had become Gu Siting’s woman.

“`

But when she looked up and saw the face of that middle-aged man, she was completely stunned.

How could this be?

Shi Yuan clasped her hands over her head, her fingertips digging fiercely into her scalp.

It had to be an illusion!

But no matter how many times she closed and opened her eyes, the man before her was always Gu Mingde.

“Ah!”

“Ah!”

Shi Yuan and Song Yuzhi both let out screams of collapse and disbelief.

Song Yuzhi was shaking all over with rage, never expecting that she would invite the wolf into her house and lift a rock only to drop it on her own foot!

“Slut! Vixen!” Song Yuzhi reached out and grabbed Shi Yuan’s hair, her face twisted with malignancy as she yanked her off the bed.

Shi Yuan, without a thread on her, was afraid of exposure in front of so many people, her hands could only clutch tightly to the quilt.

Her hair was being pulled so hard by Song Yuzhi that her scalp felt like it was about to split.

Song Yuzhi dragged Shi Yuan to the ground, straddled her, and delivered two sharp slaps.

Song Yuzhi had always been domineering and aggressive, allowing only herself to scheme against others, if anyone dared to scheme against her, she would retaliate double!

Shi Yuan had crossed her bottom line by sleeping with her man!

This was something no woman could endure!

“Didn’t you want to sleep with Gu Siting? You actually dare to sleep with my husband, I’m going to kill you, you whore—”

Shi Yuan’s face was swollen and red from the hits, her ears ringing.

She herself hadn’t even figured out why this was happening, but now, she couldn’t let Song Yuzhi, that shrew, hit her anymore!

Shi Yuan pushed hard against Song Yuzhi’s body, and, caught off guard by the resistance, Song Yuzhi fell backwards.

Shi Yuan glanced at the people in the room; Old Madam Gu’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, seemingly extremely disappointed in her.

Only Gu Mingde looked at her with a complex expression, as if filled with yearning and compassion.

Shi Yuan bit her lip and wrapped herself in the quilt as she burrowed into Gu Mingde’s embrace.

As Shi Yuan drew closer, Gu Mingde caught a whiff of her faint fragrance and subconsciously wrapped his arms around her waist.

“Brother De, your wife… she…”

A single “Brother De” made Gu Mingde stiffen.

Who doesn’t like young and beautiful women?

And, after all, Shi Yuan had become his woman!

Hearing Shi Yuan call Gu Mingde “Brother De” infuriated Song Yuzhi to the verge of an explosion.

When Song Yuzhi was younger, that was how she used to call Gu Mingde.

Gu Mingde liked it when women called him “Brother De.”

Clearly, Shi Yuan’s “Brother De” had almost charmed away his soul.

Song Yuzhi was clawing her way toward Shi Yuan again.

But the next second, her face took a harsh slap.

Gu Mingde had smacked her across the face.

“Look at yourself now? Just a shrew!” Gu Mingde roared.

Song Yuzhi was dumbfounded by the slap.

Her face burned with pain, her ears rang, and tears fell uncontrollably.

She held her face, looking incredulously at Gu Mingde.

“You actually dare to hit me? Gu Mingde, I’m your wife, you slept with this vixen right here in our home, and you’re still protecting her?”

Every organ in Song Yuzhi’s body felt like it was being twisted together in pain.

She was angry, hating, ashamed, and annoyed; she was on the verge of going mad with rage!

Unable to bear such humiliation, Song Yuzhi rushed out of the room, saw Ming Yao in the corridor with a fruit knife, snatched the fruit knife from Ming Yao’s hands, “You little vixen, I’ll disfigure your face, let’s see how you’ll seduce men after that!”

As Song Yuzhi came in with the fruit knife, Shi Yuan burrowed further into Gu Mingde’s embrace, “Brother De, I’m scared.”

What do women fear the most between them?

The worst thing is comparison.

One gentle.

One shrew.

The contrast is stark.

Song Yuzhi, holding the fruit knife, was about to slash at Shi Yuan’s face when Gu Mingde gripped her wrist, snatched the fruit knife, and then forcefully pushed her to the ground.
