Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage-Chapter 732 - 733: He took the playful words of his teenage years seriously
Chapter 732: Chapter 733: He took the playful words of his teenage years seriously
Gu Qichen didn’t believe that this was a plot between Xia Yangyang and Li Zhiqian.
Because, just before in the garden maze, Xia Yangyang hadn’t seemed to be pretending.
There was only one other possibility.
Just as Xi Zijun had said.
At this banquet, that Mr. Li had manipulated everyone.
What a terrifying man.
What made Gu Qichen even more terrified was that Xia Yangyang was actually staying by such a man’s side.
Gu Qichen didn’t even know what their relationship was.
Who exactly had Xia Yangyang been associating with these past years?
After Xia Yangyang got into the car, she hung her head, her face full of guilt: “Brother Er, I’m sorry, I screwed up today’s affair.”
Li Zhiqian laughed and turned around, “I should thank you for today. I’ve obtained the agency rights.”
Xia Yangyang was very surprised.
Because, after she re-entered the castle with Gu Qichen later,
She didn’t overhear them discussing any business matters.
Smiling at Xia Yangyang’s astonished look, Li Zhiqian continued to explain: “Because of her fraudulent marriage, Miss Xi has lost the trust of the Earl and his wife. The other wine merchant lacks strength, and so the agency naturally falls to me. Today, you’ve really done me a huge favor.”
Xia Yangyang listened, but she didn’t feel happy.
Even though Xia Yangyang had previously agreed to help Li Zhiqian obtain the agency rights,
She hadn’t expected that these rights would have been snatched from Xi Zijun’s hands by using Gu Qichen.
Won’t Xi Zijun believe this was premeditated?
Xia Yangyang lifted her head and asked, “Brother Er, did you know beforehand that Xi Zijun’s companion was my ex-husband?”
Though Xia Yangyang didn’t want to think that way,
When Li Zhiqian saw Gu Qichen at the banquet hall, he also seemed surprised.
If he had known beforehand, he wouldn’t have asked Xia Yangyang like that, right?
Li Zhiqian responded, “Xiao Qi, you should know, my original choice for a female companion was Phoenix.”
Xia Yangyang suddenly realized.
If Phoenix hadn’t suddenly fallen ill, she wouldn’t have come to the banquet in her stead,
And she wouldn’t have run into Gu Qichen and Xi Zijun.
So, how could Li Zhiqian have planned it all in advance?
These were all just coincidences, then.
Xia Yangyang felt a touch of regret, “Sorry, Brother Er, I shouldn’t have doubted you.”
Li Zhiqian seemed to no longer mind, “It’s fine. It’s human nature.”
They were returning to the country the next day.
Before leaving, Xia Yangyang got in touch with Gu Qichen.
They didn’t share the same flight,
But they would arrive around the same day.
After a long flight journey, Xia Yangyang finally returned to Beijing.
By the time Xia Yangyang reached Beijing, it was already eight in the evening.
Li Zhiqian directly took her to Paradise Lost.
Xia Yangyang first went to see Phoenix.
Her chickenpox was somewhat better.
But she was still covered in rashes.
Phoenix didn’t let her stay long.
When Li Zhiqian returned, he didn’t even see Phoenix before he took a call and left.
Li Zhiqian had a business empire to run; Xia Yangyang could understand that.
When Xia Yangyang visited Phoenix, she presented Phoenix with the set of ruby jewelry from Li Zhiqian.
Phoenix stared at the ruby in a daze. Then she broke into a rueful smile, “I didn’t expect him to take seriously those playful words from our teenage years.”
Xia Yangyang didn’t understand what Phoenix meant.
As for their complicated love triangle, Xia Yangyang didn’t venture to ask.

Having sat through a ten-hour flight, Xia Yangyang was utterly exhausted.
Upon returning to her own apartment, she immediately went to sleep.
After a vague, indefinite time asleep, she was roused by a knocking at the door.
