Chapter 73: Learning the whole truth

Gu Nuannuan was stunned by what he said.

"You're saying I'm unfaithful? That I'm dating Jiangsu? Are you out of your mind to say something like that?"

Jiang Chenyu: "..."

Gu Nuannuan snapped, "If I were dating Jiangsu, would I marry you? Can't you come up with a decent excuse for lying? You're just as despicable as you are."

Jiang Chenyu wasn't as impulsive as the girl. He patiently endured it and said, "You and Jiangsu went to the movies, drank milk tea, went shopping, traveled... Aren't you a couple? Xiao Su has met your parents, didn't you promise each other a lifetime together? Xiao Su admitted that you had a relationship, is that fake? You call me fake, Gu Nuannuan, when have you ever been genuine? On one hand, you're still entangled with Xiao Su, laughing and joking with him right under my nose without caring about appearances. On the other hand, you keep me hanging on, calling me in the middle of the night to come home to sleep and calling me 'husband' in a sweet, affectionate way? Are all women like you, hypocritical and saying one thing and meaning another?"

Once again, Gu Nuannuan was completely bewildered.

It seems the couple had a misunderstanding.

Moreover, when you put these misunderstandings together, they become a serious misunderstanding.

"Jiang Chenyu, do you consider Jiangsu and I to be ex-boyfriends and girlfriends?"

"Is not it?"

Nuannuan asked again, "So you won't let me transfer to another hospital or to a different class in Jiangsu because you don't want us to rekindle our old flame?"

This time, Jiang Chenyu did not reply.

But his gaze towards Gu Nuannuan deepened.

Will you two rekindle your old flame?

"Reignite my foot! How can you reignite something that hasn't even ignited yet? How does your brain manage such a large corporation? Business tycoon? Pshaw, what a gimmick. Jiangsu is my little follower. How could I possibly develop feelings for my own underling? You're insane, really!" Gu Nuannuan slapped her forehead, speechless and on the verge of tears.

It turns out the misunderstanding was here.

She can only apologize to Jiangsu for now.

Jiang Chenyu frowned upon hearing Gu Nuannuan's words. His nephew was a lackey? A follower? What exactly was their relationship?!

Gu Nuannuan calmed down and began to recount Jiang Chenyu's story in chronological order: "In the third grade, he bullied me in Class 1 of Jiangsu, and then I... In the first year of junior high, he went to get revenge, and then I defeated him again... In the first year of senior high, he didn't understand his place and provoked me again. This time I went a bit too far and beat him up pretty badly..."

According to Gu Nuannuan, Jiang Chenyu did indeed remember that his nephew had been severely beaten and had even taken sick leave for a period of time. It turned out that the girl who had beaten him was actually his young wife. He narrowed his eyes and continued listening to Gu Nuannuan's story.

"After graduating from high school, the three of us—him, Xiaomo, and I—accidentally ended up in the same school. Jiangsu chose business school to avoid me, thinking he had escaped my clutches. Little did he know that I would marry you, and you just so happens to be his uncle..."

Jiang Chenyu was lost in memories. It seemed that when Jiangsu first saw Gu Nuannuan, his face showed not surprise, but extreme shock.

Gu Nuannuan continued, "...He's always been a tyrant at home. He cares about his pride and doesn't want me to expose the ten dark years I bullied him. As a condition, if his mother and I ever have a conflict, he has to mediate and protect me. And I will cover up his years as his underling."

It's not surprising that he knew my parents when he came to my house that time, because he would do my homework for me on weekends during winter and summer vacations. Xiao Mo was also there when he came to my house, so my parents knew him. Moreover, my parents also knew that I always bullied Jiangsu at school!

Later, you asked me about Jiangsu. I had promised him I wouldn't tell his family about him being my underling, so I told you about what happened between me and Xiaomo. Going to the movies, drinking milk tea, traveling, shopping—none of that happened between Jiangsu and me. The real person was Xiaomo!

Jiang Chenyu lowered his eyelids slightly. If that were really the case, then he had misunderstood from the beginning?

"Why did Xiao Su break Dad's antique and take his mother's diamonds, risking a beating just to keep you here?"

Gu Nuannuan replied, "He's being too clever for his own good, thinking you'd take advantage of me like a beast at night. After all, we've been friends for ten years; he wouldn't abandon me for my own safety. At home, at least if I call for help, he can save me."

Jiang Chenyu's Adam's apple bobbed. "Why would he admit that you two had a relationship?"

Gu Nuannuan replied, "That's because of his wild guesses. He thought you had feelings for me in that way, and that I didn't. He used me as a shield when I rejected you. Jiangsu thought that was the reason he admitted it, completely unaware that this was a trap you set for him." Jiang Chenyu: "..." This was the first time in his life he had ever had such a big misunderstanding.

He finally cleared up the misunderstanding.

In Jiang Chenyu's heart, the gloom was swept away, and the bright sunshine appeared.

Gu Nuannuan hadn't expected it to be a misunderstanding. Her short temper flared, and she punched Jiang Chenyu repeatedly, saying, "You never tell me what you want to say! You made wild guesses and got me all wrong! You're driving me crazy!"

Jiang Chenyu was hit hard by his wife. Without saying a word, he walked to his desk, picked up his phone, and called the school leaders. "Hello, this is Jiang Chenyu."

The principal on the other end greeted him respectfully. "Hello, Mr. Jiang, what can I do for you?"

"Gu Nuannuan's transfer procedures will be processed normally. Let her go to Class 2-3 of the Business Department," Jiang Chenyu instructed.

Gu Nuannuan blinked in surprise as she looked at the man who had suddenly transformed. The principal then asked, "President Jiang, what should we do if Young Master Jiang wants to transfer classes?"

Jiang Chenyu: "His situation remains the same. He's not allowed to go anywhere. He'll continue serving his aunt in the third shift."

Gu Nuannuan: "???"

The principal, without presumption, asked, "Who is his aunt...?"

"My wife, Gu Nuannuan."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

The principal was left in his office, his jaw dropping in astonishment, while Gu Nuannuan stood beside him, her mouth agape in disbelief.

"Why are you admitting to our relationship? Just a second ago you were doubting my feelings for Jiangsu!"

Jiang Chenyu said frankly, "I apologize to you. I was wrong to misunderstand you."

Gu Nuannuan didn't know how precious Jiang Chenyu's apology was. She only knew that Jiang Chenyu's attitude in admitting his mistake was good, which made her unable to stay angry. "Then you can't tell the principal about our marital relationship. I'll be the subject of gossip throughout the school. Besides, I just became the school's most beautiful girl. I don't want to be a married school beauty."

Jiang Chenyu narrowed his eyes and looked his little wife up and down.

She was indeed pretty and charming; he never imagined he would marry a school beauty as his wife.

"Wouldn't it be good if he were my wife?"

"I don't want others to know that I got married so early, otherwise I would be a monkey being spied on and gossiped about behind my back at school. I want to have a peaceful college life."

Jiang Chenyu and his young wife looked at each other.

His wife's eyes held a stubborn glint in them; it seemed that if he didn't agree, she might start arguing with him again in the next second.

So, President Jiang compromised once again.
