Quick Wear: There is always a female supporting role tearing up the script
Chapter 316 Black Swan x Poor Boy 23
He didn't lie.
Gu Yanning knew very well how much his salary was. He spent very little on himself every month, and the rest was transferred to her without a single cent left.
Even if those were nothing to her.
It was only enough for her to have a meal or buy a skirt.
Gu Yanning blinked in the night wind.
"Do you know what it means when you say these words?"
"I really won't let you have a penny of your own."
Just like before, she knew that Chen Ke was short of money, but she would still stand aside and wait for him to pay every time they went on a date.
She was even unwilling to lower her consumption level. She wanted to stay in the best hotel, eat in the restaurant with a beautiful river view, and even refused to drink cheap water.
The breakup fee she gave him also became an ordinary bag in her closet.
She had always harbored a hidden malice towards him.
If you want to be with me, you have to use everything you have to support me.
If you can't even give this, why should I be with you?
She coveted his love, but didn't believe it, so she always needed something to prove it.
Chen Ke's voice was very soft on the phone. He said, "I know."
"I am willing."
This house is her and Zhou Jingmo's wedding house. It is full of joy. Chen Ke couldn't control his tears and he held his phone tightly.
"Yan Ning, I have never told you that for a poor person, his dignity is the only thing he has."
"But when facing you, the first thing I lose is my dignity."
"I love you. If you don't believe me, I can say it many, many times."
Gu Yanning didn't answer. She stood on the balcony and looked at him for a long time.
Chen Ke looked up as always.
I don't know how long it was before she said, "Aren't you coming up?"
"I'm dressed up beautifully today."
She was still wearing the Xiuhe dress she wore when toasting, with her long hair tied up and her makeup done in a dignified manner. Her round eyes were clear and pure, very much like the young ladies in the Republic of China era in TV dramas.
Newlyweds, full of love and affection.
Her and Zhou Jingmo's wedding bed was covered with peanuts and longans, and the new house was filled with joy.
The tears on Chen Ke's face had dried. After he went upstairs, he first stared at her for a long time, and then stared at the wedding bed in a daze.
Everything was so real, Gu Yanning really married someone else.
He is a mistress through and through.
Seeing that he was about to cry again, Gu Yanning pointed at the table and said, "Come here."
Chen Ke walked slowly, his hands and feet clumsily at times. He walked up to her like a dog caught in the rain.
A plane ticket was handed to him.
"What do you mean?"
Chen Ke's pupils trembled, he raised his voice and looked at her suddenly.
……
"Mrs. Zhou?"
Gu Yanning came back to her senses after being patted twice on the shoulder. She blinked. The rose tea in front of her was still steaming, and she had only taken a bite of the exquisite and beautiful cake.
The person sitting next to her asked her, "Are you distracted?"
This is the daughter-in-law of the Hong Kong giant Li family. She is a few years older than her. Last year, Zhou Jingmo and the Li family reached a cooperation, and the women of the two families also started to interact with each other.
Gu Yanning and Mrs. Li often make appointments to play cards and go shopping in Gangcheng, and they have a good relationship. This time, Zhou Jingmo came to Gangcheng to discuss business with the Li family, and he brought Gu Yanning with him.
They were all old friends, and there happened to be a horse race today, so the two men met at the racecourse. The wives were not very interested in this and drank tea and chatted in another room.
"You've been absent-minded today," Mrs. Li asked with concern. "Is something troubling you?"
Gu Yanning shook her head. "Nothing much. I just didn't sleep well after getting off the plane late last night."
"You," Mrs. Li raised her teacup and took a sip, sighing, "you're too nice to Zhou Jingmo."
"I know his stepmother is no pushover. Even though she had a broken bone, she still wanted you to take care of her. You're really acting like an old woman! It's hard for you to take care of her for the better part of a month, and now you're being dragged out by Zhou Jingmo to socialize."
Gu Yanning smiled and said, "I'm here to play with you. What's there to talk about between the two of us?"
"Like you said, I wish I could get as far away from that old woman as possible."
Mrs. Li was also amused, but she was ultimately disappointed: "You should also keep an eye on Zhou Jingmo. What happened between him and that ballet dancer in France has spread to the Hong Kong circle!"
"That's really disrespectful to you!"
"You've only been married for three years, and he dares to do this. Isn't it just because..."
The words were on the tip of her tongue, but Mrs. Li swallowed them back.
After the Zhou and Gu families got married, Gu Shaolian did not rise to prominence with the support of the Zhou family as he had expected. Instead, he messed up several major projects in succession and everything went wrong. In the past two years, the Gu family's fortunes have declined.
Mrs. Li really felt sorry for Gu Yanning. She married a man who was not in love with her, and her family had lost their support, so she could only swallow her anger.
Gu Yanning had nothing to refute, so she could only smile and not respond.
Mrs. Li felt even more distressed about her.
They both changed the subject in tacit agreement. Cheers erupted outside the window, and Mrs. Li looked up and said, "Oh, Godot is coming out."
Godot is a pure white Arabian horse that came out of nowhere two years ago. He is a perennial winner on the racetrack and a well-deserved star. In every race, more than tens of millions are bet on him.
It does not belong to any club but is a private horse race.
Its owner is very mysterious, and there are also rumors that it is related to the YK Group, which has rapidly risen in Hong Kong in the past two years.
Speaking of YK, it is even more magical. No one knows who is the person in power behind it. This group is like Godot, suddenly appearing, taking off rapidly, accurately grasping every gust of east wind, and now it is unstoppable.
With the sound of a gunshot, the game below had begun. Gu Yanning and Mrs. Li stood in front of the window together, watching the game below.
Gordo performed as usual, leading by a wide margin, his beautiful hair flying in the wind.
"Looks like there's nothing to worry about," Mrs. Li said with a smile. "I invested in it, too, and made a small profit."
"What about you?" she asked Gu Yanning, "You and Zhou Jingmo were together when we were betting just now. Who did you vote for?"
Gu Yanning pointed to a chestnut horse in the middle of the team in the arena. Its size, limbs and strength were all very ordinary.
"number 13."
She didn't even know the horse's name.
Mrs. Li said, "This horse's past performance has been mediocre, so few people back it."
"I don't usually play these, you know," Gu Yanning said. "I know Godot is the favorite, but I didn't choose it. I thought, after all, it's just a gamble. If there's no suspense, wouldn't it be boring?"
They stood in the VIP box directly above the stadium, with a one-way floor-to-ceiling window in front of them, which ensured privacy while allowing them to watch the horse race from the best perspective.
Godot's jockey galloped past on this excellent horse, his face covered by a colorful veil. It was said that he had applied for a special permit from the race because of his religious beliefs.
However, many people speculated that this was just a publicity stunt to add some publicity to this legendary racehorse.
He clearly couldn't see inside the box, but the moment he turned the corner, he turned his head from his horse and twisted his body to look precisely at their location.
