Don't meet me in your next life.

"Who are you talking to on the phone?" Xiang Yi asked with a smile as she came in from outside.

“A boring person,” Gu Zeyu said irritably.

"Is that your father?"

"Why are you meddling so much?" Gu Zeyu glared at her. "My affairs are none of your business."

Xiang Yi pouted, looking unconvinced.

"It's just a marriage proposal, why are you so angry?"

"Hmph, am I not your wife anymore?" Xiang Yi complained. "Just because I'm not your wife, does that mean you can't marry someone else? And just because I'm not your wife, does that mean you can marry any other woman you want?"

"I have no intention of marrying another woman." Gu Zeyu's tone softened. "I've said it before, I will never marry another woman in my life, even if I were to get married."

Xiang Yi was stunned.

Therefore, I will only marry you.

Gu Zeyu grasped her wrist, gazing intently at her with a firm and solemn tone.

He recalled his actions and felt extremely remorseful.

He is really crazy!

Even though he knew she was his sister's wife, he still couldn't help but want to propose to her.

Xiang Yiyi felt as sweet as if she had been filled with honey.

She smiled, pursing her lips, and said, "That's more like it."

The two were about to go out for dinner when they heard a knock on the door.

Xiang Yi thought it was a secretary, so she said, "Come in."

As soon as the door opened, a woman in a business suit walked in.

"Mr. Gu, hello, this is Chen Xiaoting from the finance department. There's an account that needs your signature. Do you have a moment?"

Yi Yi's eyelids twitched.

Chen Xiaoting!

Isn't she the girl who went to see Gu Zeyu that day and got a severe beating from him?

"Yes, wait for me a moment, I'll be right down."

After speaking to Xiang Yi, she hurriedly ran to the sofa and sat down, tidying up the documents while glancing at Gu Zeyu.

"You know her?" Gu Zeyu asked, puzzled.

"Yeah, it's the one whose face you beat up a few days ago," Xiang Yi said. "You hit her way too hard! She's a girl!"

“I did this to get revenge for you,” Gu Zeyu said.

He didn't want her to suffer any injustice, and he didn't want to see any trace of being bullied on her face.

However, when he heard news about that girl, he couldn't control himself.

Xiang Yi curled her lip. "But you can't beat someone half to death. Are you a police officer?"

After she finished speaking, she realized she had said something inappropriate.

Police officers are not allowed to use force, but... isn't Gu Zeyu a police officer?

He's so capable, he definitely won't let her suffer.

"I'm a police officer, what are you?" Gu Zeyu asked, raising an eyebrow.

He doesn't seem to be lying.

Xiang Yi gritted her teeth.

This person is truly treacherous and cunning.

"I'm a friend of the police."

"Friend? I seem to remember you and her being like oil and water."

"That's all in the past." Xiang Yi smiled awkwardly. "We've made up and are friends again."

Gu Zeyu snorted coldly and said nothing more.

However, judging from her expression, she didn't seem to be faking it, so it seems he was wrong.

Xiang Yi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he was no longer pursuing the matter, and continued to bury herself in processing the documents.

But unexpectedly, another female voice interrupted her at this moment.

"Oh! Assistant Xiang, it's been a long time! I heard you're now the president's wife at Gu's Group. Congratulations!"

Xiang Yi looked up and saw that it was the girl named Wang Li whom she had met at the hotel that day.

Her eyes were filled with contempt, as if mocking her vulnerability.

Xiang Yi was furious.

"Thank you, Ms. Wang. Hello." Xiang Yi greeted him politely.

Although she wasn't the wife of the president of the Gu Group, she was a director at the Gu Group, so she had to maintain proper etiquette.

Wang Li, however, still did not give up on attacking her.

"I heard that President Gu is getting married soon. Assistant Xiang, I wish you both all the best, and don't forget to invite me to the wedding!"

Xiang Yi frowned impatiently.

"No need, thank you for your blessings, Miss Wang."

Wang Li's eyes were filled with jealousy.

Is Gu Zeyu going to marry another woman?

"I heard that this marriage was because of your father, right? Assistant Xiang, I really pity you, marrying someone who doesn't love you."

“Miss Wang…” Xiang Yi glared at her unhappily, “Why are you so gossipy?”

"Hehe, what do you mean? I was just curious. Assistant Xiang didn't want to tell me the truth because she was worried I'd tell others, right?" Wang Li said with a smile, but then suddenly became serious. "Assistant Xiang, you should actually thank me. If it weren't for me, you and President Gu probably wouldn't have had this chance to reconcile."

Xiang Yi looked at her angrily.

Why is this woman so annoying?

“I think Miss Wang may have misunderstood,” she said coldly. “There is no possibility that Mr. Gu and I will get back together.”

After she finished speaking, she picked up her bag, turned around, and left.

Gu Zeyu, however, grabbed her.

"What do you want to do?" Xiang Yi looked at him in astonishment, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.

Gu Zeyu didn't say anything, but simply took her hand and led her toward the office's lounge.

Xiang Yi was terrified.

"Hey, let go of me right now!" She struggled desperately, but to no avail.

Gu Zeyu's strides were very long, and she couldn't keep up at all.

"Gu Zeyu, let go! I still have to work!" Xiang Yi shouted.

Gu Zeyu remained unmoved until he entered the office's break room and locked the door from the inside.

Xiang Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She patted her chest, "You scared me to death! Gu Zeyu, are you crazy? Why are you even going after my office? This is my office!"

Gu Zeyu did not answer.

He took off his suit jacket, tossed it onto the sofa, turned around, and stared at her with a deep gaze.

"You're not the naive and innocent Xiang Yiyi I used to know. Do you know why I hate you so much?"

Xiang Yi shook her head.

His words left her confused.

“Because you’ve become incomprehensible.” He paused for a moment, then slowly said, “Do you know what your behavior just now represents? How dare you treat your boss like that!”

"So what? You can hit me all you want, I won't fight back!" Xiang Yi said aggressively.

She's the wife of a CEO!

She was actually lectured like that by an employee. If this gets out, how will she ever be able to work here again?

"Do you think I wouldn't dare?" Gu Zeyu narrowed his eyes, a chill flashing in them.

This girl is so arrogant, she's completely lawless.

He had never been so angry before.

At this moment, Xiang Yi also sensed his anger and couldn't help but feel a little afraid.

This man is really dangerous.

She wasn't stupid; of course she knew what he wanted to do.

She doesn't want to cause trouble.

"Then I'll leave right now."

After Xiang Yi finished speaking, she turned to leave.

"Wait!" Gu Zeyu suddenly shouted coldly, "Aren't you even willing to offer an explanation?"

Xiang Yi paused for a moment, but still stubbornly took a step and left.

"I told you you weren't allowed to leave!"
