In order to survive, she forced herself to have a happy ending with the yandere villain.

Gu Chaomu's eyes darkened slightly, and he remained silent.

Qin Qing forcefully shook off his hand, tears welling in her eyes as she cursed:

"I knew it. You're such a despicable, fickle, and bad man. Gu Chaomu, if you still can't forget her, then get out of my way and stop bothering me. I'm not your tool, and I'm not someone who has no one else but you."

As Qin Qing said this, she wiped away her tears and ran out.

"Qin Qing."

Gu Chaomu wouldn't come back no matter how much he called, so he didn't plan to continue trying to coax her.

Originally, it was thought that after Xie Ze's death, Qiao Wanwan would become despondent, and that once he took the position of the next leader of the alliance, he could marry Qiao Wanwan in a grand manner.

But who would have thought that Qiao Wanwan would be so heartless, finding a new lover and getting married in less than two months?

Gu Chaomu would definitely be the first to disagree.

After thinking it all through, Gu Chaomu picked up his bag and left Anqi City, which was beneficial for his cultivation.

Back near the Alliance Leader's residence, after some inquiries, they learned that Qiao Wanwan's fiancé was a member of the Mo family, a court physician.

The moon hung in the sky, and an owl on a branch stared intently down below.

That night, a wandering swordsman suddenly barged into the Mo family's temporary residence.

Mo Jiang, who was in the study, had already sensed the commotion outside. He picked up his sword and came out of the study.

He saw Xie Ze waiting for him at the door.

"Godfather, don't be nervous. It's just that an old friend has come here. Let me go and meet him."

Mo Jiang breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"Alright, Ze'er, it's best to be cautious."

"clear."

Gu Chaomu sneaked into Young Master Mo's room and stood outside the door, looking at the dimly lit interior.

He reached out to push the door open.

Just then, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Brother Gu, did you come to see me?"

"!!"

Gu Chaomu's hand froze in mid-air, and she paused.

"crunch"

"crunch"

The approaching footsteps, slow yet with a devilish rhythm, etched a sense of fear into his heart.

An idea popped into his head.

Could the person standing behind him at this moment be Xie Ze, who has been resurrected from the dead?

"Hehehe."

Xie Ze's deep laughter suddenly appeared in Gu Chaomu's ears, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.

With a loud "smack," Gu Chaomu received a heavy slap on the shoulder.

Gu Chaomu, who was caught stealing, suddenly felt weak all over and was terrified. Goosebumps rose all over his body.

"Xie Ze!"

Gu Chaomu roared, flung the hand off his shoulder, and dodged straight back.

Xie Ze, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, was even more alluring than before. He was wearing a silver-white robe, and his silky long hair was casually draped behind him, with a loose, turquoise hairband.

Beneath Leng's skin were exquisite features, a sculpted expression, and beneath her long, thick black eyelashes were a pair of deep eyes that always carried a bewitching smile.

Now, with a smile playing on his rosy lips, he looks like a bloodthirsty devil.

Gu Chaomu's heart was pounding violently, whether from fright or attraction.

"You're still alive!"

"You really want me dead? Tsk tsk tsk. How sad. We used to be such good friends."

"friend?"

Gu Chaomu seemed to have heard a funny joke and scoffed.

"If they were friends, they wouldn't have tried to take it from me. They're clearly rivals in love."

"Rob?"

Xie Ze narrowed his eyes slightly, smiling smugly:

"Oh, you mean Wanwan?"

Gu Chaomu rolled her eyes at him and said four words.

"Asking knowingly."

"... "

Xie Ze felt displeased when he heard the other person spying on Qiao Wanwan, and the smile on his lips disappeared.

"Gu Chaomu, you were the one who didn't cherish Wanwan first, and the person Wanwan liked wasn't you. Wanwan and I were able to be together not because we were fighting for her, but because I fought for it myself. Besides constantly belittling Qiao Wanwan and using her, what else can you do?"

"what!"

Gu Chaomu was slightly shocked. Why was Xie Ze more aware of his own actions than he was?

Enraged, he retorted in a stammering voice:

"When...when did I belittle her? When...did I take advantage of her? You've been watching the whole way, I've always been very good to her, which eye saw me bullying her? It was clearly you, you were the one who kicked her out last time, and you still have the nerve to talk about me?"

"Yes, I admit it. It was wrong of me to kick her out last time. I can accept the punishment, and Wanwan has already forgiven me. But... you have no right to appear in front of Wanwan."

Gu Chaomu always has the male lead's halo, and everyone revolves around him. How could he put up with this kind of treatment?

Feeling looked down upon by Xie Ze, she instantly became angry and shouted:

"Who do you think you are? You're nothing but the son of a scourge of the underworld!"

"Oh, no. I forgot, you're an orphan with no family now. A jinx, you brought ruin to your entire family. Now you've come here as a member of the Mo family, thinking you're something special? You're still just a dog who married into the family, aren't you?"

"... "

Gu Chaomu's words made Xie Ze clench his fist slightly and let out a cold laugh.

"Hmph, you came here today just to say these sarcastic things about me? I'm really sorry, it's useless to me. And it won't affect my decision to be with Wanwan."

Seeing that the other person remained unaffected by all her words, Gu Chaomu's facial muscles twitched, and she spat out a curse:

"Xie Ze, you have really disgraced men."

"... "

Xie Ze's eyes darkened as he glared at him, offering a final reminder.

"Please leave, don't make me do it."

"What, you want to hit me?"

Xie Ze didn't say anything more, he just gave a cold laugh.

He stretched out his hand, and suddenly a dozen shimmering silver needles appeared in his hand.

The whooshing sound broke the silence of the night sky.

"!"

"bang"

Gu Chaomu hurriedly dodged, but his whole body accidentally fell to the ground. He then scrambled to avoid the other silver needles and rolled several times on the ground.

It was late at night, and he couldn't see the direction of the silver needles at all.

Moreover, although Xie Ze was poisoned, his strength was no weaker than his.

Gu Chaomu came today only to see the young master of the Mo family who is marrying Qiao Wanwan.

Now that he knows the truth, Xie Ze will not recklessly fight him.

Gu Chaomu quickly raised his hand to stop them.

"I'll leave."

"... "

Xie Ze smiled slightly, watching the other person climb over the wall of the Mo residence and disappear without a trace.

The smile on his lips slowly faded.

"No matter what, Wanwan is mine."

A sharp glint appeared in his eyes as he continued talking to himself.

"You dare to try and take it from me? You're not one of them."

...

More than half a month later, the wedding of the two went very smoothly.

Qiao Qingfeng beamed with joy at the festive atmosphere of the mansion that day. He said smugly to the steward beside him:

"Sure enough, the person I set my sights on, my daughter will also set her sights on. Look, things are going so smoothly that my daughter has even forgotten about that Xie family boy."

"Yes, yes, the Alliance Leader has excellent taste. The son-in-law is so handsome, and he is marrying into our Qiao family. He is truly blessed."

"Hahaha."

Spring and summer, who were passing by, overheard their conversation and secretly walked past.

Qiao Qingfeng, who had been kept in the dark by the two masters and servants and the Mo family, was still smug.

I can't even imagine how the Alliance Leader will react when he finds out that his son-in-law is actually the son of the Xie family's cancer.

Chunxia trembled, her heart filled with worry.

This is terrifying to think about.

I'd better not think about it anymore. Today is Miss's big day, I need to hurry and see how she's dressed.
