Marrying a wealthy family for the second time, being spoiled by a paranoid childhood sweetheart

He sent a message to Jiang Ru, but Jiang Ru didn't reply. He began to worry, so he asked someone to investigate.

"I've found her. Jiang Ru has returned to the apartment now." The assistant investigated and knew that she was in her previous apartment.

Gu Chen frowned as he went over. Thinking about Jiang Ru not replying to his messages recently, he realized something was wrong and asked his assistant to investigate: "Help me find out who Jiang Ru has been with these days?"

"Zhao Yan."

The assistant investigated Jiang Ru's recent actions.

Gu Chen became jealous when he learned that Jiang Ru and Zhao Yan had been together for a long time. After returning to the apartment, he indeed saw Jiang Ru.

The moment she saw Gu Chen, Jiang Ru wanted to avoid him and quickly returned to her room, pretending to rest.

Gu Chen exposed Jiang Ru at this time. He came to the room and said, "Don't pretend. I know you are not asleep. I saw you turn on the light just now."

"Is there something wrong?" Jiang Ru could only face the still cold voice.

Gu Chen asked thoroughly: "Why don't you live in the villa I gave you before?"

"I don't like it." Jiang Ru shook her head and said bluntly: "You should take the villa back."

"I won't take it back." Gu Chen refused. Even if Jiang Ru didn't want to live there, he wouldn't take it back. As long as he gave it to Jiang Ru, it would belong to Jiang Ru.

"Whatever you want." Jiang Ru didn't want to argue with Gu Chen any more, so she turned around and stopped looking at him.

"Why have you been so cold to me lately!" Gu Chen finally asked when he was at a loss.

"You think too much." Jiang Ru said that she still treated Gu Chen the same as before, but her expression betrayed her.

Gu Chen sneered, but he mentioned Zhao Yan's name, "Is it because of Zhao Yan?"

He thought Jiang Ru ignored him because of Zhao Yan, and he felt even more dissatisfied.

"No." Jiang Ru denied. This really had nothing to do with Zhao Yan. It was because of what Gu Chen's father did that Jiang Ru couldn't face it, so Jiang Ru had been choosing to escape. She didn't want to quarrel with Gu Chen and could only respond indifferently.

Gu Chen misunderstood even more and thought that it must be Zhao Yan who was fanning the flames in Jiang Ru's ear, which was why Jiang Ru treated him so coldly.

Gu Chen couldn't accept the fact that Jiang Ru had ignored him and been with another man for so many days.

Gu Chen lost his mind due to jealousy. He asked directly, "You have been with Zhao Yan these days. Isn't it because of him that you ignored me?"

"This has nothing to do with him." Jiang Ru still did not admit it.

"From now on, don't give any gifts to Zhao Yan." Gu Chen became even angrier and asked Jiang Ru to stay away from Zhao Yan.

"Why? He's my friend!" Jiang Ru refused firmly, thinking that Gu Chen was being unreasonable. "Could you please stop being so ridiculous?"

"He must have ulterior motives in approaching you. You should cut off all ties with him as soon as possible." Gu Chen was certain that Zhao Yan had ulterior motives and asked Jiang Ru not to contact Zhao Yan in the future.

"Are you jealous? He is a good person. Why do you slander others just because you are jealous?" Jiang Ru didn't believe it. She knew that Gu Chen was jealous, so she didn't take Gu Chen's words to heart at all. Zhao Yan has been supporting her these days, so how could he be a bad person?

"I'm not jealous."

Gu Chen started to explain at this time. He was indeed a little jealous, but he would not restrict Jiang Ru's freedom to make friends. He just didn't want Jiang Ru to be surrounded by people with impure motives.

"You believe that I must have a purpose for approaching you. He is not a good person at all. You must not trust him too much."

Gu Chen had a strong intuition that Zhao Yan seemed to be planning something, perhaps trying to sow discord between the two of them. Would he be able to take advantage of the situation then?

After thinking about this possibility, Gu Chen would never allow such a thing to happen.

"You know I'm in court, right? I won't listen to you. It's my right to meet with whomever I want."

Jiang Ru was very unhappy with the request that Gu Chen made to her. She thought that Gu Chen was restricting her freedom and refused to agree no matter what.

Faced with Gu Chen's strong opposition, Jiang Ru felt even more uncomfortable. She started to sneer, "Gu Chen, you're just afraid that Zhao Yan will find evidence against Gu's father, so you don't want us to interact. What on earth are you feeling guilty about?"

Jiang Ru did not ask about the photo, knowing that he would not admit it even if she asked. However, they both knew the truth and believed that it was related to the Gu family. So she began to have some prejudice against Gu Chen and could not face her feelings for him. As a result, the two of them had misunderstandings and fell into a cold war.

Now the truth has not been investigated clearly, and the relationship between the two is facing a very stiff point. No matter what Gu Chen says, Jiang Ru refuses to listen. Gu Chen has a headache. He doesn't understand why Jiang Ru can't trust him. He just hopes that Jiang Ru can stay away from the bad people around her.

Gu Chen felt very uncomfortable, and his body and mind were hurt. "You would rather trust an outsider than me?"

Jiang Ru's lips curled up in sarcasm, "Oh, that's ridiculous! You're hiding evidence and already favoring your own father. How can I trust you again?"

Jiang Ru now has a great prejudice against Gu Chen. She no longer trusts Gu Chen in her heart and no longer discusses anything with him.

"I didn't intentionally hide evidence. It's just that the evidence is insufficient. We can't wrongly accuse anyone. If the truth comes out, I won't let anyone escape the punishment of the law."

Gu Chen felt even more that this person had ulterior motives. He was genuinely anxious and didn't want Jiang Ru to be hurt. He wanted Jiang Ru to think carefully before making any decision, but Jiang Ru couldn't listen anymore and interrupted him coldly:

"That's enough. I don't want to hear it. I will investigate my own affairs. I have someone to help me now and I don't need you to interfere."

Gu Chen began to analyze this person and said clearly, "Is the evidence he gave you really the truth? No one has ever been truthful from the beginning to the end. Please don't destroy our relationship because of other people's instigation, okay?"

His words were never groundless and always made a lot of sense, but Jiang Ru just refused to believe them.

Jiang Ru's attitude was indifferent, "At least he will help me."

“Do you think a stranger would really want to help you? I’m the only one who really wants to help you.”

Gu Chen said it firmly.

He believed that this person had bad intentions, and he always felt that this matter was not that simple.

"Don't trust Zhao Yan. Use your own judgment. If the evidence is genuine, why haven't you found any witnesses yet?"
