Wealthy Beauty in the 60s-Chapter 671 - 673: Gao Peize, I’m your fiancée

"Gao Peize." That day, Shitou and Xiao Shan Yue came out of Professor Yang’s house and ran into a ’girl’ dressed in a delicate dress.

Indeed, Shitou wasn’t even sure if it was a girl because the person in front of him looked like a bulky, clumsy boy wearing a dress, the only difference being the long curly hair and a pink hairpin perched on their head.

And she had straight, evenly cut bangs—was this a boy wearing a wig?

Shitou sized up the person approaching and also noticed the bodyguard following behind them, obviously someone of no ordinary status if accompanied by a bodyguard.

"Let’s go," said Shitou to Xiao Shan Yue, not recognizing the person in front of him, nor wanting to stick around.

"Stop right there, Gao Peize, you can’t leave."

Shitou and Xiao Shan Yue were immediately stopped in their tracks, and Shitou raised an eyebrow. He had a bodyguard too—who was afraid of whom?

"Who are you, why are you stopping us?" Shitou asked.

"I’m Gong Xiaomeng, my nickname is Mengmeng."

As soon as Gong Xiaomeng finished speaking, Shitou uninterestedly replied, "Don’t know you," and was about to leave.

Gong Xiaomeng added, "My grandfather is Gong XX, my maternal grandfather is Cao XX..."

Shitou paused, Gong, Cao, hard not to know, "What do you want?"

"I am your fiancée," Gong Xiaomeng declared.

Pfft, Shitou burst out, his eyes widening involuntarily, thunderstruck—fiancée, what an international joke.

Plus, Gong Xiaomeng’s voice was quite rough; if it weren’t for the exquisite pink lace-trimmed dress, Shitou might have suspected that the person before him was a boy.

Xiao Shan Yue also widened her eyes, looking at the person in front of her—how was this possible? She had known Brother Shitou and Beibei for so many years and had never heard a thing about Brother Shitou having a fiancée.

And if the person in front of her were indeed Brother Shitou’s fiancée, Xiao Shan Yue couldn’t help but feel sympathy, yet also thought it was impossible.

Gong Xiaomeng tried to rush over and grab Shitou, but he simply stepped aside and said to Xiao Shan Yue, "Let’s get out of here."

Shitou didn’t want to deal with her; how could he not know whether or not he had a fiancée? And even if he were to have one, it definitely wouldn’t be the person in front of him.

Gong Xiaomeng was angered by Shitou’s disregard; she was used to everyone in the family pandering to her since she was the favorite of her maternal grandfather, whom she resembled—when had she ever been ignored like this?

Gong Xiaomeng was also three years older than Shitou and indeed looked somewhat older than him, but she wasn’t as tall.

Shitou, now eleven years old and pursuing postgraduate studies, while Gong Xiaomeng was fourteen and somewhat precocious, understood what being engaged meant.

Moreover, knowing that her grandfather intended for Shitou to become her fiancé, Gong Xiaomeng was more than satisfied, especially now that she had seen Shitou, but Xiao Shan Yue seemed to be a thorn in her side.

"Who are you, what right do you have to be with my fiancé?" Gong Xiaomeng glared and, without waiting for a response from Shitou and Xiao Shan Yue, warned, "You homewrecker, stay away from my fiancé in the future or I’ll make you regret it."

Which mental hospital let you out, Shitou thought, speechless. He said to Gong Xiaomeng, "If you’re sick, take your medicine fast. I definitely do not have a fiancée."

Having said that, Shitou also told Gong Xiaomeng’s bodyguard, "Take your miss back quickly, I don’t know her."

The bodyguard hadn’t reacted yet, and Gong Xiaomeng became even more furious. "You’re my fiancé; you can’t be with her anymore. You have to come with me."

Shitou chuckled coldly and said to Li Jin behind him, "Uncle Jin, block them for me."

Shitou then immediately left with Xiao Shan Yue, his heart irritated by the absurdity sprung from who-knows-where.

"Get out of the way." Gong Xiaomeng, seeing Shitou leave, charged in a fit of rage but was stopped by Li Jin. Gong Xiaomeng lashed out at Li Jin.

Li Jin dodged, and Gong Xiaomeng ended up falling to the ground. When Gong Xiaomeng’s bodyguard saw her fall, they engaged in a scuffle with Li Jin.

"Brother Shitou, they started fighting," Xiao Shan Yue said worriedly.

"Don’t worry, let them fight." Shitou took Xiao Shan Yue to the car and saw the bodyguard driver recording with a camera, raising an eyebrow but saying nothing.

The next day, there was news about Shitou all over the internet and newspapers, criticizing his character for bullying a young girl and having a bodyguard beat someone up.

There was even video evidence; although without dialogue, the footage was very clear.

The internet began to question Shitou, especially on Tianya Weibo, where comments were quite confrontational.

"Young Master Ze," the bodyguards said to Shitou upon seeing the online news.

Shitou had not expected someone would have recorded a video the day before, which he hadn’t noticed, but after taking the cell phone from the bodyguard and seeing the news online, Shitou’s lips curled slightly as he said to the driver, "Didn’t you also record yesterday?"

"Yes, I recorded it very clearly and close enough that even the voices are audible," the driver replied.

"Give it to me." As soon as Shitou finished speaking, the driver handed over the camera.

Shitou took it, removed the memory card and said, "That’s enough, leave it to me."

Then he entered the house, where Xia Xiao said to him, "Did you see the news? You didn’t mention it yesterday."

"I saw it, I’m not worried about it," Shitou replied.

Xia Xiao nodded, "Then, the Gong Family and Wen Family are interested in making an alliance with us through marriage. They’ve both spoken to your grandfather about having you or Beibei intermarry with their younger generations, but your grandfather hasn’t agreed."

"Yeah, we’ll handle it," Shitou said, heading to his room.

Once back in his room, Shitou switched on his laptop and quickly accessed the video from the camera.

It was indeed very clear, even clearer than the one online, with the audio included.

Now, Gong Xiaomeng was getting trashed online, especially for that "I am your fiancée" line, which was like stirring up a hornet’s nest.

This only sparked more backlash from the netizens. It was obvious that the Gong and Cao Families were trying to destroy the evidence, but how could the public let them have their way?

So many people who had downloaded the video re-uploaded it and everyone shared it—Gong Xiaomeng and the Gong and Cao Families gained significant infamy.

Xia Xiao and the rest were keeping an eye on the online situation, and they didn’t really have to do anything—Shitou could handle it all on his own.
