After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband
Chapter 48: Big Wedding (6) Gu Yansheng’s Embarrassed Kneeling
Chapter 48
An Nuan's voice was warm and clear.
Gu Yan Sheng did not believe at all that An Nuan would say something like this.
Logically, even if he had stolen someone's partner, since he had already pleaded to this extent, An Nuan should have just let it go and gave him a way out.
She should not have made him kneel in public like this.
Did she know how much this hurt a man's pride?!
Gu Yan Sheng's silence and anger did not escape An Nuan's notice.
She recalled what happened in their previous life, when Gu Yan Sheng had kept An Nuan completely imprisoned.
He had locked her in a dark, damp room.
He had starved her for three days and three nights, not even allowing her a drop of water.
All humans have the instinct to survive.
Even when Gu Yan Sheng had treated her so terribly, she still wanted to live.
She wanted to live, to take revenge on him and her cruel family for everything she had suffered.
So when Gu Yan Sheng appeared in her prison cell, she begged him for some water. f𝐫𝗲eweb𝗻o𝐯el.𝚌o𝗺
What did Gu Yan Sheng do at that time?
He held the woman he claimed to love the most, Di Ziyao, proudly standing over An Nuan. He said, "Beg me for water, An Nuan. Kneel and beg me for water."
An Nuan struggled up from the floor.
Then she slowly knelt in front of Gu Yan Sheng.
At that time, she only had one belief:
She must survive.
Only by living could she get revenge on the man in front of her, only by living could she avenge her family.
But her kneeling did not elicit even the slightest pity from Gu Yan Sheng.
He even laughed maniacally, his eyes filled with contempt for An Nuan.
That expression was still vivid in An Nuan's memory today.
Crouching down, he grabbed An Nuan's chin violently.
His grip was so tight that tears involuntarily welled up in An Nuan's eyes.
He said, "An Nuan, you've always acted so nobly, always endured everything silently. What's wrong? Can't keep up your elegant, dignified act as the young miss of the An family now? For the sake of living, you've thrown away your dignity so quickly? Do you know that seeing you like this takes all the fun out of tormenting you for me? And if I don't enjoy it, you'll just die faster!"
An Nuan endured all of Gu Yan Sheng's cruelty as if it had just happened to her.
In the end, Gu Yan Sheng did not give her a single drop of water. Instead, he spat on the ground in disgust and said cruelly, "If you want to live, then lick up my spit!"
An Nuan snapped out of her memories and stared blankly at Gu Yan Sheng in front of her.
At this man who had been so viciously cruel to her in the past.
An Nuan could actually guess what Gu Yan Sheng was thinking right now.
After all, the An Nuan of the past had been so easily moved, so easily placated by Gu Yan Sheng. A few sweet words from him and she would believe him again.
She had always thought love was mutual. If she treated him well, he would treat her well too.
How foolish she had been back then!
Fortunately, heaven had given her a chance to start over.
She would certainly not waste it!
Her eyes glimmered coldly.
She just looked at Gu Yan Sheng like that, with not a shred of feeling.
The stiffness continued for a long time.
Gu Yan Sheng also knew An Nuan would not give in so easily this time.
He figured any woman probably could not accept her beloved man being with another woman. An Nuan was still a woman after all, she had her own emotions too, and she loved him too much, which was why she demanded this of him.
Gritting his teeth, he knelt down heavily in that moment.
Kneeling in front of An Nuan.
He thought, one day, he would make An Nuan suffer a fate worse than death.
He would return An Nuan's humiliation multiplied.
The murmuring in the wedding hall originally died down at Gu Yan Sheng's kneel, as everyone stared in shock.
They probably had not expected Gu Yan Sheng would kneel to this extent either.
The scene was one of total astonishment.
Not that they sympathized with Gu Yan Sheng for kneeling, or felt he should be forgiven. Just that Gu Yan Sheng had always portrayed himself as above everyone else, so seeing him kneel like this was truly unbelievable.
Everyone continued watching them, curious to see if An Nuan would actually forgive him.
After all, rumors outside said An Nuan loved Gu Yan Sheng beyond herself.
Now that Gu Yan Sheng had gone to such lengths, An Nuan should give in.
But An Nuan would not give in.
She would never compromise with Gu Yan Sheng again in this life.
She just looked at Gu Yan Sheng like that, looking at him finally kneeling in front of her, utterly humiliated in front of everyone.
She said, "Yan Sheng, I really loved you for many years."
At her words, Gu Yan Sheng became somewhat excited.
He knew An Nuan could not possibly abandon him completely.
It was just that she loved him too much, which was why she demanded he do this.
At that moment, Gu Yan Sheng felt somewhat ironic too.
One day, he would make this foolish woman suffer a fate worse than death.
But outwardly, he still put on a deeply loving expression.
He quickly said, "Me too, me too, Nuan Nuan."
"But from this moment on, I don't love you anymore," An Nuan suddenly said.
Gu Yan Sheng's face stiffened again.
He simply could not believe An Nuan would say something like this.
How could An Nuan possibly stop liking him?
He had devoted himself to An Nuan for so many years, completely fooling and leading her around. An Nuan was utterly devoted to him, her love for him penetrated into her bones. There was no way she would say she didn't love him.
He stared fixedly at An Nuan, thinking he must have misheard.
An Nuan did not care at all about Gu Yan Sheng's emotions. Her face was completely cold as she continued, "I cannot accept you cheating with An Zhao."
"I was really just drunk, believe me, I'll never drink again, I swear I'll never betray you again!" Gu Yan Sheng pleaded desperately.
He knew very clearly the consequences if An Nuan did not forgive him.
An Nuan gave a cold laugh. She said, "Cheating only happens zero times, or countless times."
"I swear, I swear I'll absolutely never betray you again!" Gu Yan Sheng kept vowing.
"Let's end it here, our wedding is over," An Nuan said decisively.
Her resolution left no room at all for compromise.
At that moment, she even turned to leave.
Gu Yan Sheng suddenly reached out and grabbed her, also standing up from the floor. "Don't go, I'm begging you not to leave, I really can't lose you."
Still putting on an act, still trying to move An Nuan.
An Nuan gritted her teeth.
She had no desire to continue entanglement with Gu Yan Sheng.
By this point, it was about enough.
Gu Yan Sheng's reputation was in tatters, she had succeeded in calling off the wedding.
As for... Ye Jinghuai.
Since he did not come, then so be it.
She struggled with all her might to break free of Gu Yan Sheng's restraint.
At that moment, Gu Yan Sheng grasped her even more forcefully, refusing to let go.
If he let An Nuan leave now, his entire wedding would be ruined, his image would be completely destroyed too!
How could he possibly let An Nuan get away so easily.
An Nuan's face darkened.
She turned around to face Gu Yan Sheng, his eyes full of menace.
Slap! She slapped Gu Yan Sheng across the face with her full strength.
