Chapter 74: If You Love Someone, You Have to Grant Him His Blessings
“What can you help?” Mrs. Gu wasn’t paying much attention.
“Once that woman is gone and Brother Gu can’t see her, he’ll eventually move on.” Shi Muzhen tempted her. “With her around, families with good backgrounds wouldn’t want their daughters to be with Brother Gu.”
Mrs. Gu thought of Lin Mingzhuo.
Indeed, just as Shi Muzhen had said, learning about Zhichuan’s affair had led to the disruption of a wedding!
Feng Yangyang was the obstacle in front of Zhichuan!
Mrs. Gu made a firm decision. “You’re right.”
But why was Muzhen willing to get involved?
“What will you gain from helping me?” Mrs. Gu asked.
Shi Muzhen smiled politely, showing the obedience and meekness that Mrs. Gu liked. “It’s unlikely you would believe that I’m simply concerned about you, Auntie. But you know, 1 have feelings for Brother Gu. If I handle this matter well, would you consider giving me a chance?”
Mrs. Gu hesitated.
Shi Muzhen added, “If you still feel that I’m not suitable in the end, I’ll leave and won’t disturb you in finding a wife for Brother Gu.”
“Are you truly willing?”
“If you love someone, you should support him.” Shi Muzhen said with a bitter tone, “If he doesn’t love me, I won’t hold him back.”
Seeing Shi Muzhen’s unwavering determination, Mrs. Gu understood how foolish people could be for love. Shi Muzhen was probably one of them.
“Alright, 1 like you anyway.” She could consider the later steps later, but for now, why not agree?
Shi Muzhen hesitated. “Could you promise me one thing?”
“What is it?” Mrs. Gu was concerned that Shi Muzhen might play tricks.
“Whether this matter succeeds or not, please don’t tell Brother Gu about it. Can you agree?”
Seeing her pitiful expression, Mrs. Gu agreed.
Shi Muzhen obtained Feng Yangyang’s information from Mrs. Gu and bid her farewell, sneering.
Why should Feng Yangyang get ahead when she was the one who was denied what she wanted?
At Grampian Garden, when Feng Yangyang heard a knock on her door, having experienced Mrs. Gu barging in last time, she cautiously peered through the peephole.
“Who is it?” she asked.
The person outside the door said, “Miss Feng, I’m the property manager here. There’s a large package for you at the entrance of the community. We need you to confirm it so that our security can allow someone in to carry it for you.”
“I haven’t ordered anything.”
“It’s from a certain Mr. Gu, and the address filled in is your unit.”
Gu Zhichuan? Feng Yangyang opened the door.
The person continued, “Please go over there yourself. The tenant upstairs reported a leak in the pipes. 1 need to check it. It’s not convenient to park the delivery vehicle at the entrance, as it could block other residents. You just need to walk a little to see it.”
Feng Yangyang nodded and left.
Once outside, there was indeed a delivery truck parked in the shade.
Feng Yangyang’s heart fluttered with excitement, wondering what Gu Zhichuan had bought for her. Just as she was about to ask the delivery person, two figures leaped out of the vehicle and captured her before she could react.
Feng Yangyang’s pupils constricted upon seeing the hostile appearance of the newcomers. She tried to call for help, but her mouth was covered and she was forcefully silenced.
The vehicle traveled for a while before stopping in a remote area. Feng Yangyang, with her hands bound, saw the car door open and a woman entered.
“Why must you act as a third party and engage in seduction?” Shi Muzhen grabbed her hair and lifted her head to get a clear look at Feng Yangyang’s face.
The pain on Feng Yangyang’s scalp made her let out a sharp scream. “Who are you?”
“Would I be so foolish as to tell you who I am?” Shi Muzhen spat at her face.
Amid Feng Yangyang’s struggle, her phone fell to the ground. With a stern face, Shi Muzhen snatched it away, turned it off, and flung it out of the car.
The phone collided with a rock, its screen shattering before rolling into the rocky underbrush..
