Chapter 112

The elegant restaurant, the romantic private room.

Gu Yan Sheng personally placed the tableware in front of An Nuan, attentive and thoughtful.

However, An Nuan's words made Gu Yan Sheng freeze in place.

Clearly, he was embarrassed.

An Nuan didn't give Gu Yan Sheng any face at all. She said, "We've been together for so many years, and you don't even know that I'm allergic to mushrooms?"

So.

You want to show your deep love for me tonight, but you're just setting yourself up to look bad?!

Gu Yan Sheng was stunned for half a second before quickly calming himself down. He hurriedly said, "Look at me, I just wanted to share the delicious food with you, I forgot about your mushroom allergy."

"Waiter, please help me change this to black pepper sauce."

"Yes sir." The waiter respectfully agreed.

An Nuan just watched Gu Yan Sheng's performance with indifference.

Watching Gu Yan Sheng's clumsy and ridiculous performance.

In fact, there were clearly many flaws. Why didn't I see them in my previous life?

Was it because I trusted him too much and unconditionally believed him, which led me to be deceived so miserably?

Gu Yan Sheng brought up some small talk to move past the awkwardness.

He spoke carefully and cautiously, not daring to offend her.

He said, "An Nuan, why did you suddenly start working? I didn't know you were planning to get a job before."

"I was idle anyway."

"Is it because Ye Jinghuai doesn't treat you well and you don't feel secure?" Gu Yan Sheng looked concerned.

"Of course not." An Nuan denied it.

"That's good then." Gu Yan Sheng smiled tremulously, "I was just worried that you were being mistreated following Ye Jinghuai. After all, he has a bad reputation, so I was concerned..."

"Rather than worrying about how Ye Jinghuai treats me, why don't you talk about what happened between us." An Nuan raised her eyebrows, "Didn't you say you wanted to make things clear?"

"Yes." Gu Yan Sheng nodded hurriedly.

He was cautious around her, not daring to offend her in any way.

He said, "An Zhao's funeral today left me feeling quite emotional."

An Nuan lowered her head to eat the new dinner the waiter had brought over, treating it like a free show.

"I really didn't expect that she would choose to commit suicide because of her ugliness. Frankly, I feel a bit guilty about it now." Gu Yan Sheng looked pained at this moment, "I should have had a good talk with her, knowing how fragile she was. It's my fault."

An Nuan was seriously eating her steak, with no reaction at all.

Gu Yan Sheng was a little embarrassed, but he continued spinning his story, "Actually, it was really An Zhao and your uncle who pushed me too far. Clearly it was An Zhao who drugged me to seduce me, but they wanted me to marry her. How could I possibly marry her when I loved you all along?! I didn't expect my rejection to lead to her taking such revenge on me, making such a public denouncement! I only did what I did to prove my innocence. An Nuan, you can't blame me for this, can you?"

As he spoke, he suddenly reached out, trying to take An Nuan's hand.

An Nuan raised her hand, avoiding him.

She said, "That was between you and An Zhao. Why would I blame you for it? There were causes and effects, even if An Zhao became a ghost, she wouldn't find me."

Gu Yan Sheng's expression changed slightly.

The old An Nuan would have listened to everything he said without question, never doubting anything he did.

The current An Nuan.

She opposed everything he said, it was like she had become a completely different person!

Gu Yan Sheng gritted his teeth and forcibly swallowed his emotions. He continued, "An Nuan, An Zhao's death has made me very worried about you."

An Nuan chuckled lightly.

Her smile was clearly mocking.

"I'm worried you might do something reckless as well. After all, we loved each other so much, yet I did something that hurt you so badly. I'm afraid you can't get past this shadow. If anything happened to you, even dying ten thousand times wouldn't be enough to atone for my sins!" Gu Yan Sheng sounded full of remorse, looking utterly sincere!

But in An Nuan's eyes, it had become disgusting to the extreme.

She didn't even know how Gu Yan Sheng could say such nauseating words.

"You don't need to worry too much about my mental state. I'm very happy with Ye Jinghuai now. In fact, I'm grateful for what happened between you and An Zhao. It prevented us from getting married, allowing me to marry Ye Jinghuai instead. And then I understood what it really means to like someone." As An Nuan spoke, the smile at the corner of her mouth was clearly very sweet and happy.

"It's good that you don't have any shadows. " Gu Yan Sheng deliberately dismissed it.

The flash of cruelty in his eyes was fleeting.

He probably hadn't even considered that the woman who loved him so much she had no self left could suddenly claim to love another man.

And even inviting her to dinner tonight, he probably thought that with a few sweet words, An Nuan might have a change of heart.

After all, it was possible she had just been angry at the wedding.

Once the anger passed, if he acted pitiful, she would come back to him.

Of course he couldn't accept An Nuan as used goods.

What he wanted was to make use of her, then make her suffer a fate worse than death!

How dare she betray him?!

How dare she humiliate him so badly?!

However.

Everything was now completely different from his expectations.

His eyes tightened.

Suddenly picking up the glass of red wine next to him, he put on a warm smile and gently said, "I thought you needed my comfort, and also my apology. I even considered that maybe we could be together again. But since you're happy with your current life, then I wish you well."

An Nuan glanced at the glass of red wine beside her.

She picked it up.

Gu Yan Sheng clinked glasses with An Nuan on his own initiative.

As they clinked glasses, a cunning smile flickered at the corner of Gu Yan Sheng's mouth.
