"If I had known it would come to this, I would have gone with you. Then, this wouldn’t have happened." Xu Yuan said, filled with regret for not asking more questions yesterday.
"It wouldn’t have made a difference if you had come along."
At that time, when she saw those two foreigners, her first reaction was that they might have found Bai Youchen, so she immediately got rid of Wen Qiao.
Even if Xu Yuan had been there, she would have still sent her away.
But now, thinking back, if it had been a setup, it wouldn’t have been a spur-of-the-moment thing but from the moment she entered Cloudtop Hotel.
Because the time she spent at the hotel before seeing those two people was too brief.
With that in mind, there are two possibilities left, who is the key in that chain.
Was it Wen Qiao? Or the two executives who wouldn’t let Wen Qiao leave?
"Why would it be useless if I came? Are you saying that you would still have gone to Bai Lingyun’s room?" Xu Yuan insisted, "I absolutely wouldn’t believe that you and Bai Lingyun were fooling around. Tell me, did that guy drug you and try to force himself on you?"
"Then he told Gu Annan, who just happened to witness the scene. And he even brought the reporters. This way, for the sake of his reputation, he had to make you his girlfriend to get through this crisis. Moreover, the internet is raging about a **** deal, not his girlfriend, but a **** deal, what a ruthless way to force someone."
Lu Wanwan glanced at her, somewhat helplessly, "Everyone already knows I’m Gu Annan’s lawful wife, how could I be his girlfriend?"
Xu Yuan’s sudden burst of imagination had almost made her forget this detail, "Then he’d rather smear himself black, just to turn you into his affair. Annan surely wouldn’t tolerate that, and once divorced, you would become his. Although he would get quite a backlash, but..."
"But what? Keep making things up." Lu Wanwan pointed out dryly, "Stop thinking about it. This is my fault."
She looked at Xu Yuan, seeking confirmation.
"Xu Yuan, if I say I can’t tell you, would you blame me?"
Not just for Bai Youchen’s safety, but also because throughout this series of events, she realized how desperate the other party was to get Bai Youchen, even willing to resort to such methods.
Who knows if they would stoop even lower.
She didn’t want to put Xu Yuan’s life on the line as well.
"In any case, I believe you wouldn’t cheat." Xu Yuan thought for a moment, "As for the rest, you decide for yourself. What I’m upset about is how could Gu Annan believe this!"
"Because there were some other reasons."
She didn’t even know how long Gu Annan had had her under surveillance, or when he found out about those things.
For some reason, she suddenly remembered that when she took Bai Youchen to the hospital, Bai Lingyun came without knowing their blood relationship.
At that time, Bai Lingyun made her promise not to reveal it.
"If you leak it, he might face more trouble..."
"Especially not Gu Annan, don’t ask me why."
She had never asked why it was particularly imperative that Gu Annan not be told.
"All of the hotel’s surveillance was down the day before yesterday, and it hasn’t been fixed yet. So, there’s no footage to check," Mu Xing reported all of the investigation results, "But that day, Cesar’s car was spotted on the street, with two people getting off. Later, the car drove to a blind spot out of surveillance."
"I know." Gu Annan glanced at the report briefly, "I’ve already contacted him."
Mu Xing was surprised, "You asked him personally?"
"He admitted it. His men were looking for Bai Youchen. They ran into Lu Wan obstructing them, didn’t dare to act, and knocked her out to make a getaway."
