“I’ll give you the title of Mrs. Gu, but don’t even think about anything else.” What the hell? He’s my man—why can’t I kiss him, hug him, and lift him up? After being reborn, she humiliated her enemies and climbed her way up to the most powerful man in Li City. That trashy sister wants to rise to fame? She can dream! Watch her use her power to crush her in a heartbeat. That sleazy guy trying to pull strings through family connections? Hmph! No way—not a chance. After the wedding, her husband remained aloof and dignified, refusing to give in. Watch as she coaxes him with every trick in the book. Gu Mochen has nowhere to retreat. Since his wife is taking the initiative, he’ll reluctantly accept everything she offers—if he doesn’t give himself to her now, wouldn’t that be a terrible injustice to her?
Chapter 497: Gu Mochen, Are You Trying to Be Funny? [Fifth Update] Nan Fengling immediately branded Gu Mochen a hypocrite and a beast in human form. “What are you staring at? Just tell me what it means!” Gu Mochen urged. “Ugh, Gu Mochen, I never expected you to be this kind of person—such a hypocrite.” Nan Fengling pushed Gu Mochen’s phone away with a look of disgust. “I…” Gu Mochen was instantly at a loss for words. He didn’t think he’d done anything wrong—why was he being looked down upon? And what was the meaning behind that look? “Chen, since when have you been so interested in internet slang? That’s not like you,” Nan Fengling said. He didn’t think Gu Mochen was the type to scroll through Weibo or hang out on forums. “Ahem! I’m just curious…” Gu Mochen covered his mouth and coughed lightly, a faint blush creeping onto his cheeks as embarrassment flickered in his deep eyes. “Why are you curious about that phrase in particular? By the way, where’s the girl? I don’t see her. You should ask A Sheng—I’m sure she’ll understand.” Nan Fengling looked as though he were thoroughly enjoying the spectacle, goading him to seek out Gu Sheng. “Um… A-Sheng said I was ‘no good,’ then stormed off in a huff.” Gu Mochen replied honestly. If he’d known what it meant, he wouldn’t have had to ask Nan Fengling in the first place. “Haha! Gu Mochen, are you here to be a joke? If you said that to A Sheng, she’d be crazy not to beat you to a pulp. ‘Good-for-nothing’ is actually a mild insult—if it were me, I’d beat you senseless.” Nan Fengling mocked Gu Mochen without holding back. Being the good guy he was, he took the time to explain the full meaning of that phrase to Gu Mochen. Gu Mochen was completely baffled. The way young people think these days is truly appalling. Was he really getting old, and had he developed a generation gap with Gu Sheng? By the end of their conversation, Gu Mochen practically kicked Nan Fengling out. Only then did Gu Mochen realize that the so-called “fun” referred to that kind of thing—but there was nothing wrong with that, was there? It must be that Gu Sheng was just too shy to admit it. Of course, he was tactful enough not to bring it up again in front of Gu Sheng. But late at night, when all was quiet, he proved through his actions that he could give her plenty of joy. The next day, Gu Sheng woke up at noon, and Gu Mochen was already gone. She reached over to the empty spot beside her, and the coldness jolted her back to reality. She found her phone on the nightstand, checked the time, and hurriedly got dressed to head to the hospital. But on this particular day, Gu Sheng wasn’t the only one who had overslept. As soon as she arrived at New Moon Hospital, she headed straight for Qi Yan’s laboratory. She had become a regular at his lab; as soon as she appeared, nearly all the medical staff in the hospital knew she must be there to see Qi Yan. As Gu Sheng was making her way through the lab, Qi Yan happened to be walking out with a blood sample, waiting for the test results. Seeing Gu Sheng, he paused slightly: “Why are you here?” “Don’t tell Gu Mochen the test results.” Gu Sheng didn’t answer his question directly but cut straight to the point. “You know?” Qi Yan was somewhat surprised; he had only just received the results himself. But then again, with the drug in her system and the eyes implanted in her body, she naturally sensed it herself. “I don’t want to hide this from you. After I left, I had the same experience in Country G. At the time, the doctor also said there was nothing wrong with my eyes, but about three or four days later, the problem became even worse. So this time should be the same,” Gu Sheng said earnestly. She was already prepared. Recommended Reading: "Yuan Zun" by Tiancan Tudian, "..." by Maoni
