The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

"Qingran, don't be so heartless. We've been playing together since we were little. I'm not used to you being like this."

He quickly regained his smile, his gaze falling on Lin Qingran, still with that unruly demeanor.

Lin Qingran frowned slightly, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes. She looked away, no longer glancing at Gu Yihuai.

She knew that no matter what she said, Gu Yihuai would remain in this state unless it hurt his pride. Otherwise, this person in front of her was even more composed than Shen Huai.

Gu Moxuan glanced in the direction of the door, a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes.

"Big brother has such a good temper. If I were you, I definitely wouldn't stay here any longer."

Gu Yihuai shrugged indifferently, his tone nonchalant.

"That's a real shame, you're not me. If you were me, your childhood would have been full of fun."

As he spoke, he noticed a flicker of anger in Gu Moxuan's eyes and chuckled softly.

"Could it be that you've always secretly longed to be like me? That's true, after all, I'm the eldest grandson of the Gu family, you..."

Gu Yihuai didn't finish his sentence. He looked Gu Moxuan up and down, scrutinizing him with obvious contempt.

Gu Moxuan's hands, which were hanging down, suddenly clenched tightly, but he quickly loosened them.

His previous anger had completely vanished, and his tone was calm.

"I have no desire to be a piece of trash."

Gu Yihuai raised an eyebrow, not expecting that Gu Moxuan would actually hold back at this moment.

You have to understand that Gu Moxuan used to be very sensitive about his status as an illegitimate child.

Even if someone mentions it casually, he will suddenly get angry.

He had been married to Lin Qingran for three years and had learned some things from her.

Gu Yihuai yawned, looked at Gu Moxuan with a forced smile, and said leisurely.

"Whether someone is good or bad is not something we should decide yet."

"Qingran, you should get some rest. Brother Yihuai will come to see you another day."

Lin Qingran didn't respond; there was nothing to talk about between her and Gu Yihuai to begin with.

She even hoped that Gu Yihuai would never appear in front of her again, so that she wouldn't have to think about that helpless night two years ago.

Seeing that the person lying on the bed was unmoved and not angry, Gu Yihuai leisurely walked out of the ward.

He knew Lin Qingran resented him, but he was no longer the Gu Yihuai of two years ago.

He would always let her know who was the most suitable for her.

After Gu Yihuai left, the room became quiet.

Gu Moxuan sat in his chair, silent, his gaze fixed intently on the woman lying on the bed.

Her lips gradually regained their color. Despite the quiet atmosphere, the two had nothing in common and preferred to remain silent.

Finally, Gu Moxuan lost his temper, looked at her coldly, and said sternly.

"What are you and Gu Yihuai plotting now?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran frowned slightly. She slowly turned her head, her cool gaze meeting Gu Moxuan's deep, dark eyes, without a trace of guilt in her eyes.

"If I were really plotting something with him, would I let you hear it?"

Gu Yihuai knew that Gu Moxuan was suspicious by nature, so he deliberately said those words in front of him.

There was never any trust between Gu Moxuan and her, so now Gu Moxuan naturally believed that she and Gu Yihuai were plotting something.

Even if she conspired with others to harm Gu Moxuan, she would never conspire with Gu Yihuai.

Gu Moxuan gave her a cold glance, then spoke indifferently.

"You'd better not get involved with him."

Lin Qingran frowned, her gaze falling on Gu Moxuan, her eyes filled with deep dissatisfaction.

He truly didn't trust her at all.

"I have my own sense of proportion."

The man sitting next to her remained indifferent, his long fingers pulling a cigarette from the pack and putting it in his mouth.

"If you have any connection with him, you'd better pray that your older brother can stay in this position."

He coldly uttered harsh words and lit the cigarette he was holding in his mouth.

He got up and went outside as soon as he lit the cigarette.

Lin Qingran frowned, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

Gu Moxuan now has everything in the Lin family firmly in his grasp.

As long as there is even the slightest thing that displeases him.

The Lin family will then become the victims.

She rubbed her forehead, her head aching, and her eyes became somewhat indifferent.

Gu Moxuan walked into the smoking room and exhaled the smoke he had been holding in his mouth.

Just now, when he was about to smoke, he instinctively disappeared from Lin Qingran's sight, which made Gu Moxuan feel annoyed.

She never cared about his feelings, yet he had to accommodate her on such trivial matters; it was truly frustrating.

After smoking, he angrily returned to Lin Qingran's ward and saw her sleeping peacefully in bed, which fueled his anger.

All the contradictions and entanglements in his heart now stemmed from her, yet she lay here so peacefully.

The color in the corners of her lips had not fully returned, appearing as a pale pink.

Her long, thick eyelashes veiled her aloof eyes, making her delicate features appear even sweeter.

Gu Moxuan took a deep breath and grabbed the coat from the chair.

The wooden chair made a slight sound as he moved.

Lin Qingran slowly opened her eyes and saw the man who had returned appear in the ward. She murmured something.

“I’ve already called Wang Ma and asked her to come and take care of me. Since you hate being around me so much, you should leave now.”

Her voice was low and she sounded like she didn't have much energy. After she finished speaking, she turned over with difficulty, her back to her.

The whip marks on her back came into Gu Moxuan's view.

Gu Moxuan frowned slightly, his eyes flashing, as he looked at the obvious bloody mark on her whip. He then turned and left.

The ward fell silent again. Lin Qingran slowly opened her eyes and, after confirming that the man had left, took out her phone to call Wang Ma.

She didn't like living in the hospital; the strong smell of disinfectant made it impossible for her to sleep.

Despite Lin Qingran's insistence, Wang Ma still came to the hospital to complete the discharge procedures for Lin Qingran.

......

At Sky One Bar, amidst the blasting music and boisterous atmosphere, Gu Moxuan sat in the SVVIP booth with a dark expression. Numerous scantily clad women came to offer him drinks, but they were all scared away by his stern face.

Seeing that he looked like a living devil, Nie Jingchen let go of the shoulder of the hostess and moved closer to Gu Moxuan.

"Jinnan, what's wrong with you today? Just tell me."

Nie Jingchen is a second-generation rich kid. His mother is a well-known actress. He and Gu Moxuan grew up together. They can be said to have grown up together like brothers.

Gu Moxuan spent almost all of his childhood growing up in the Nie family.

He was a womanizer by nature, and two years ago he caused a big mess that involved the Zhao family's darling daughter, so he went abroad to hide for a year.

Only now that things have calmed down did he dare to quietly return to China.

This time when he returned to China, he was still as flamboyant as ever, but much more low-key.

Gu Moxuan glanced indifferently at Nie Jingchen's hand that had been around the hostess, waved it away with disdain, picked up the wine glass on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Just some trivial family matters."

"That Iceberg Third Miss is making things difficult for you again?"

Nie Jingchen looked very interested when Lin Qingran was mentioned.

“I told you long ago that the Ice Queen’s personality doesn’t suit you, so you should give her to me. Her personality is meant to be melted by a passionate man like me.”

"If you don't want her anymore, then you should give her to me right away."

Gu Moxuan's face darkened, and his sharp, hawk-like eyes stared directly at Nie Jingchen as he spoke coldly.

"You still miss her?"

His voice was so cold that Nie Jingchen was stunned for a moment, but a smile quickly appeared on his lips.

"Looking across the entire North City, there are plenty of people eyeing the third young lady of the Lin family. It's not unreasonable for me to be one more."
