Chapter 65: Chapter 65 Shushu Deserves 100% Love
Sheng Shaochen pulled Ye Shu to his side, then turned to the stunned Sun Nanjue with his mouth agape and said, “Sun Nanjue, do a good job helping Miss Ye, and don’t screw it up!”
His tone was grinding and heavy with bitterness.
Sun Nanjue felt as though a malign wind was blowing in July, chilling him to the bone.
When he looked at Gu Zuocheng, his eyes conveyed a trace of sympathy.
“Young Master Gu, do you need any help?” Sun Nanjue asked cheekily, shrugging his shoulders at Gu Zuocheng.
After all, Gu Zuocheng was Sheng Shaochen’s own cousin.
Even if Sheng Shaochen was furious, Sun Nanjue wasn’t quite sure how far to go in reprimanding Gu Zuocheng.
Sun Nanjue truly regretted leaving his phone with Sheng Shaochen, which had brought nothing but trouble upon himself.
“Doesn’t my brother have a fear of women?” Gu Zuocheng drew his gaze back morosely and pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag.
Wishing he could inhale the entire cigarette in one go.
The smoke rushed into his throat, making him cough violently from the stinging sensation.
With each cough, it agitated his wounds, causing an indescribably sharp pain.
Yet it didn’t compare to the anguish lingering in his heart.
He still remembered what Ye Shu had told him—that she didn’t need him specifically, as there were plenty of others who could do what he couldn’t.
But in his wildest dreams, he never imagined that the person Ye Shu mentioned would be his own cousin—Sheng Shaochen.
For him, this was a devastating punishment.
“Young Master Gu, this is probably fate. Ye Shu is the one destined for Ah Chen, so I suggest you stop pursuing her,” Sun Nanjue advised.
A seasoned playboy experienced in affairs of the heart, Sun Nanjue had seen it all and could comprehend Gu Zuocheng’s current state of mind.
“Destined? So… Shushu is the only one who can cure my cousin’s fear of women?” Gu Zuocheng lifted his gaze.
His voice was hoarse from the smoke, his throat choked with surging emotions.
Sun Nanjue awkwardly tugged at the corner of his mouth and reached out to pat Gu Zuocheng on the shoulder gently, “She’s the cure now and might very well become the only one in the future, especially considering how unique Ah Chen is…”
“Possibility? What are the odds?” Gu Zuocheng looked squarely at Sun Nanjue.
“This…” Sun Nanjue hadn’t expected Gu Zuocheng to ask such a question and was somewhat flustered.
“Shushu deserves 100% love.” And he believed he was the one who could give his whole heart to Ye Shu.
Gu Zuocheng took one last drag from his cigarette, then fiercely stubbed it out on the ground.
Supporting himself on one hand, he unsteadily stood up.
Staggering, he made his way out.
As he reached the door of Ye Mansion, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
Sun Nanjue moved to help him up but was stopped by a gesture from Gu Zuocheng.
Watching him struggle to his feet and stubbornly walk away, Sun Nanjue sighed deeply.
“True to being Ah Chen’s cousin, that stubbornness is exactly the same.” But competing with Ah Chen for a woman was like snatching meat from a tiger’s mouth—there would be bitter consequences to face.
Ye Shu was directly stuffed by Sheng Shaochen into the back of a black nanny van.
At the moment the car door closed, Ye Shu felt an oppressive sense of danger pervading the vehicle.
Instinctively, she curled up into herself.
Sheng Shaochen’s icy gaze swept over her as he gripped the steering wheel, his fingers tightening viciously, “Didn’t Mrs. Sheng say the content of the agreement was embedded in your heart?!”
How dare she go behind his back for a secret tryst with an ex?
Anger was palpable in Sheng Shaochen’s tone.
