Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 270: What Has She Been Through
Is it all over?
Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou’s face, unable to suppress her disappointment.
She thought Ling Tianyou would explain to her, but all he said was ’It’s all over’?
This proves that at least part of the previous reports were true?
Or perhaps, Ling Tianyou’s feelings for Chen Rui are real?
"If you don’t want to talk about it, then don’t!" Gu Ningyue shrugged, pretending to be relaxed as she looked at Ling Tianyou and said, "Anyway, there’s still time for everything."
She and Ling Tianyou weren’t married yet, not even engaged.
Maybe the person who ends up marrying Ling Tianyou won’t be her.
"What do you mean there’s still time?" Ling Tianyou pursed his lips. "You’re my fiancée. I’ve never thought of being with anyone else. Don’t overthink."
Gu Ningyue mimicked him, "It’s all over."
Ling Tianyou was at a loss for words and after a long pause, he said, "There’s really nothing between Chen Rui and me. There are some things I can’t explain to you right now, but you’ll find out in the future."
Gu Ningyue wanted to ask when this ’future’ would be. At his and Chen Rui’s wedding?
But she knew saying such things would be pointless, so she ended up saying nothing, just nodding slightly.
A few minutes later, Ye Mingchen reappeared on the stage, and all eyes focused on him in an instant: "Thank you all for attending my and Wanwan’s wedding despite your busy schedules. We apologize for today’s unexpected incidents..."
Watching Ye Mingchen standing there righteously explaining today’s farcical events, Gu Ningyue felt a bit dazed.
It turns out a person’s exterior can deceive everyone. Just looking at Ye Mingchen’s current demeanor, it’s difficult to associate him with the ruthless man who once forced the original host to drink poison.
After he finished explaining and solemnly apologized to Gu Wanwan, the wedding was finally able to proceed.
Seeing Gu Wanwan, with swollen eyes, embracing Ye Mingchen, Gu Ningyue felt pity for her for the first time.
Marrying this kind of man, who knows what kind of life awaits her?
Though, in a way, they have no future together now.
In thinking this way, she felt she had helped Gu Wanwan a little!
When you think about it, she really should thank herself.
After all, she wouldn’t have to face such a scumbag from behind bars.
As the wedding ended, Gu Ningyue listened to the whispers around her, feeling a slight sense of relief.
"Why does something like this always happen to the Ye family’s young master? I thought he truly loved Gu Wanwan!"
"Tsk, true love? That’s nothing but an act!"
"You’re right. After that incident at Miss Gu’s birthday party, they had no choice but to stay together."
"Haha, who would have thought there’d be a repeat at the wedding? This Ye family’s young master is something else!"
"Hahahaha, said it was revenge when he was already cheating long ago. What a joke!"
"..."
After the wedding banquet, Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou left the hotel together.
The Ye family elders stood at the door seeing the guests off, and upon seeing Gu Ningyue’s graceful demeanor, they were filled with regret.
Such a stellar young woman with a ten billion inheritance, and their son couldn’t appreciate that, insisting on marrying the illegitimate daughter of the Gu family who was not presentable?
"By the way, Chen Rui didn’t come today?"
While sitting in Ling Tianyou’s car, Gu Ningyue suddenly realized that she hadn’t seen Chen Rui there.
Could it be that, like Shen Hanyin and herself, she had no interest in such occasions?
Ling Tianyou fastened his seatbelt while responding, "The Chen and Ye families had a previous falling out, so no invitation was sent to the Chen family."
Gu Ningyue nodded; no wonder.
"Home?"
Gu Ningyue responded, "Yes, let’s go back! I’m a bit tired."
Ling Tianyou started the car, but suddenly a notification sound came from his phone inside the car.
"Ding—"
Gu Ningyue glanced at her phone, it was completely empty without a single message.
It must be someone messaging Ling Tianyou.
He picked up the phone to take a look, then his expression changed slightly, putting the phone back down.
Noticing Ling Tianyou’s expression, Gu Ningyue asked, "What happened? Is something wrong?"
Ling Tianyou remained silent for a few seconds, "Tianze had an incident in detention today, injured his leg, and my parents want to get him out."
Gu Ningyue said, "Was it an accident or was he bullied? If he was bullied, leaving him in there for a couple more days might actually be good. A lesson for him!"
Ling Tianyou nodded, "It should be an accident. I specifically made some arrangements beforehand so that Tianze would only endure some hardship, but no one would dare to bully him."
Given Ling Tianyou’s overwhelming influence, indeed no one would dare to challenge authority.
After a moment of silence, Gu Ningyue asked, "Could it be that Tianze did it to himself? I mean, could the accident have been orchestrated by him?"
Ling Tianyou paused, "That’s possible. Before my parents came back, Tianze was always begging them to get him out. But seeing they were resolute, he gave up reluctantly."
Gu Ningyue chuckled, "There you have it. A trick of playing the victim!"
Ling Tianyou acknowledged, and suddenly turned to look at Gu Ningyue: "Would you like to come back with me? My parents mentioned you before."
Gu Ningyue hesitated for a few seconds but ultimately declined, "Maybe in a few days! I’m a bit tired today, not in the best state."
Seeing Gu Ningyue’s tired eyes, Ling Tianyou didn’t press further, "Alright, I’ll take you home first then."
Gu Ningyue nodded, leaning back in her seat to rest her eyes.
Now that the Ling family elders are back, it may actually be harmful rather than beneficial to Ling Tianze’s situation.
A mother’s overindulgence leads to a spoiled child; history has proven this many times.
Just one moment of weakness, and Ling Tianze will never return to his original self.
After all, the addiction of the heart is not something that can be easily overcome.
When they reached home, Gu Ningyue checked the time on her phone, "I’ll head in first, as for seeing your parents, let’s talk in the next few days. They’re probably not in the best mood having just returned, better not to provoke them now."
Ling Tianyou smiled, "Go on in! Call me if anything comes up."
Gu Ningyue nodded, got out of the car, and walked towards the villa without looking back. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
It’s said online that if a man watches you as you walk away, then he must really like you.
She wanted to look back to see if Ling Tianyou was looking at her, but she never found the courage to do so.
As he watched her walk away, Ling Tianyou suddenly realized that she seemed to have gotten thinner.
Her figure was slimmer than it had been when they were together.
What had she been through these past days?
