Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 333: Cuckolded?

For a woman like Li Yulan who lacks even basic morals, Gu Ningyue truly felt the helplessness of the original owner’s mother for the first time.

If she had a bit of shame, perhaps the original owner’s mother could have found some way to deal with it.

"A tree without bark is doomed to die, a person without shame is invincible in the world." This saying finds its most genuine reflection in Li Yulan.

Seeing Gu Ningyue’s expression of helplessness mixed with resentment, Ling Tianyou gently patted the back of her hand: "I heard that before Li Yulan married Gu Zheng, she had an old flame. Since Li Yulan was discharged from the hospital, they’ve been meeting privately quite a bit."

Gu Ningyue was stunned, then her eyebrows relaxed: "Gu Zheng... Ahem, does this mean my dad was cheated on?"

Ling Tianyou shook his head: "It’s hard to say, Li Yulan didn’t have solitary dates; it was always group gatherings. Perhaps they are just old friends catching up?"

Gu Ningyue curiously looked at Ling Tianyou: "How do you know about this? Did I specially send someone to investigate?"

Ling Tianyou smiled faintly: "Does this need investigation? Xiang Bei is a financial tycoon; after moving his family back to City A, he naturally has to lay a solid foundation for its long-term development. Some things naturally escape my eyes."

"But this matter is quite coincidental. I took someone to negotiate business that day, and when leaving the restaurant, I happened to see Li Yulan chatting with her old pals."

"I guess I’m too inconspicuous, so no one noticed me!"

Gu Ningyue was initially listening with great interest, but hearing Ling Tianyou call himself ’too ordinary,’ she instinctively rolled her eyes: "If you’re ordinary, then there’s no dazzling person in this world."

Ling Tianyou’s smile deepened: "Not necessarily! Lin Ruixian seems quite decent, then there’s that pretty boy Xing Tong used to like—what’s his name? Su Heng, is it? He’s quite the focal point!"

Gu Ningyue was taken aback, "How do you know about Su Heng?"

Did Chi Xingtong tell Ling Tianyou about it after returning?

Or was it that back then, when she was under a spell, she absentmindedly revealed these things to Ling Tianyou?

If that’s the case, she’s really let Chi Xingtong down!

"I’ve known for a long time." Ling Tianyou looked into Gu Ningyue’s eyes: "Every day, you act so secretively, it would be impossible for me not to notice! Besides, such things can be easily uncovered with a bit of checking, but I choose to turn a blind eye!"

Gu Ningyue fell silent, wishing she hadn’t worked so hard to hide things from Ling Tianyou back then.

"Now that you know, if this matter gets exposed one day, you won’t be able to escape involvement either." Gu Ningyue’s eyes shifted as she looked at Ling Tianyou: "When the Chi Family comes knocking, you’ll have to protect me."

Ling Tianyou narrowed his eyes, like a shrewd fox: "Well, that depends on your performance."

Gu Ningyue: "... Isn’t this supposed to be my line?"

Ling Tianyou chuckled softly: "Now it’s mine, isn’t it?"

Gu Ningyue: "... Sure, of course. I’m a bit tired, I’ll go up and rest, good night!"

With these words, Gu Ningyue stood up.

If they chatted any longer, she feared she might lose control and hit Ling Tianyou.

Ling Tianyou’s lips curved with a very gentle voice: "Good night."

Once upstairs with the door closed securely, Gu Ningyue opened the local forum.

Sure enough, the news of Gu Wanwan and Ye Mingchen’s arrest dominated the entire page.

Someone captured a series of images at the convention center, among them her own heroic moments.

Unfortunately, she got too excited at the time and forgot to clear her name from being a mental patient; now she had to find a new way to clarify things, which was slightly troublesome.

Scrolling through the comments, most were condemning the couple.

"This is disgusting! Hiring thugs to kill, hasn’t the eldest young lady of the Gu Family been harmed enough by her?"

"Yes, after enduring domestic violence for so many years, finally escaping, how could she not leave her alone?"

"Shameless, snatched someone else’s fiancé and still wanted her dead, truly vicious!"

"Sentence them soon! Even if they can’t be executed due to pregnancy, they should stay inside forever and never come out!"

"Sickening, Ye Family’s eldest should at least consider how the eldest young lady of the Gu Family admired him for those years! They’re married and still want her dead?"

"Everyone’s so agitated upstairs! Maybe this eldest young lady of the Gu Family isn’t a good person either? Why else would the couple want her dead?"

"Victim blaming, huh? No matter how excessive, murder is indeed illegal!" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"+10086. Even if excessive, it can always be dealt with by reporting to the police."

Reading these messages, Gu Ningyue touched her smooth face: "I’ve avenged you, rest assured, no one will harm you again."

From this point, many began leaving comments, exposing dirty secrets from Gu Wanwan’s school days.

Gu Ningyue didn’t know if these were true or false, but they seemed quite interesting.

After browsing a few popular posts, Gu Ningyue closed the page and opened her account.

Taking advantage of this heat, Gu Ningyue posted her diagnosis report.

This stirred up a huge reaction, drawing many over.

"No way, no way! Were Ye Mingchen and Gu Wanwan really that malicious before? Almost turned someone into a mental patient?"

"High society is scary! My goodness, I’ll never dream of marrying into it again!"

"Wake up upstairs, those who can’t marry into high society, just live a normal life!"

"Can mental illness really be cured? Even if medication is stopped, there will be some aftereffects, right?"

"Not sure, but since Gu Ningyue left the Gu Family, she’s seemed normal and hasn’t been in the forum news section at all!"

"These things can have a latent period; who knows, they might flare up again in a few years! Many mental patients look fine but actually aren’t!"

"Is that so? Master Ling is so wealthy, surely he can treat it! What in this world can’t be solved with money?"

"No matter what, the eldest young lady of the Gu Family is really pitiful, wishing her well in the future!"

"..."

Looking at these comments ranging from shock to sympathy to suspicion, Gu Ningyue’s eyes couldn’t leave the page.

Sure enough, things once affixed to one’s reputation are hard to remove.

It seems she needs to find a chance, a way to make these voices vanish from her world.

Although she didn’t mind, having occupied the original owner’s body, she must fight a bit for her.

If it’s just left at that, wouldn’t it be letting her down?
