Chapter 213 The Calm After the Madness

Song Yihan kept speaking impassionedly, but Zhao Yuxi remained silent.

Gu Tingzhou planned to calm Zhao Yuxi first. No matter how much Song Yihan said, it would not cause any harm to Zhao Yuxi's body or life, but if Zhao Yuxi was also overwhelmed by anger, it would be terrible.

He acted coquettishly to Zhao Yuxi: "Sister Zhao Yuxi, I want to eat that kind of fish too."

Zhao Yuxi put on a dazed look and said, "I almost forgot that I have a younger brother. Well, this piece is for you."

Hearing Gu Tingzhou acting like a spoiled child to Zhao Yuxi, Song Yihan was so angry that she was shaking. She was on the verge of collapse. Although this man was an ancient, he was a worthless person. He was submissive and submissive in front of other women. When she saw Zhao Yuxi's hypocritical appearance, she was even more furious.

"Zhao Yuxi, stop pretending."

Zhao Yuxi was about to reason with Song Yihan, but she saw the worried eyes of Gu Tingzhou and Xu Yingze. Gu Tingzhou's worry was filled with pleading, while Xu Yingze's worry was filled with concern. She didn't say anything after all.

Xu Ying doesn't want to see Zhao Yuxi plant a thorn in Gu Tingzhou's heart. Zhao Yuxi can break up Gu Tingzhou and Song Yihan, but she must be careful about the method.

Song Yihan thought Zhao Yuxi felt guilty because of what she said, so she became even more aggressive and said, "See, I was right about you, aren't you afraid to speak? You are a hypocritical person! I wonder how long you can keep pretending!"

Zhao Yuxi looked at Gu Tingzhou's eyes that were about to cry, thought for a moment, and still said nothing.

"You not only look down on me, you also look down on Gu Tingzhou. You treat him like a child. No, you treat him like a slave."

This time, Gu Tingzhou really cried. He didn't expect that Song Yihan actually regarded him as Zhao Yuxi's slave.

This time, Zhao Yuxi could no longer tolerate it.

"Maybe I did treat him like a child, but I never thought of treating him like a slave. You said I was pretending, but everyone knows I was pretending. I'm not like this usually. You said I don't think you're worthy of Gu Tingzhou, and I told him the same thing. The hypocritical looks you saw and the cruel words you heard were only hypocritical and cruel to you. If you still want to be with him, you should at least apologize to him first. That's the most basic thing."

Song Yihan's face turned pale and she was completely hopeless. She realized that she had said too much: since Gu Tingzhou was willing to be a happy slave, then he should be a slave. Why should she expose him? Now Zhao Yuxi has caught her again. What should she do? She asked me to apologize, so should I apologize? If I apologize, doesn't it mean that I admit that I was wrong? But if I don't apologize, can I still be with Gu Tingzhou? What should I do to make him change his mind? As long as I can make him change his mind, I am willing to admit my mistakes and I am willing to bow to Zhao Yuxi. Anyway, there will be opportunities in the future. When I become his wife and when we have children, I don't believe he will still stand on Zhao Yuxi's side!
"I'm sorry, Gu Tingzhou, I shouldn't have said that to you. I don't know you well enough, so I said the wrong thing. I'm sorry, Zhao Yuxi, I was too stingy."

Song Yihan's apology was definitely not sincere. Zhao Yuxi was too lazy to look at her and just replied indifferently, "It's okay."

Gu Tingzhou seemed to have just woken up from a dream and replied, "It's okay." Gu Tingzhou didn't intend to forgive her so easily. Although he said "It's okay," he thought that after dinner and when he returned home, he must let Song Yihan explain to him why she thought he was Zhao Yuxi's slave. He shaved a piece of beef and gave it to Song Yihan, and then shaved a piece of beef and gave it to Zhao Yuxi.

On the surface, the dispute finally subsided. Song Yihan stopped talking, Gu Tingzhou stopped crying, and Zhao Yuxi was still as busy as before. Her younger brothers and sisters could not eat meat as fast as she cooked it, so she put the cooked fish on two plates and pushed them in front of Gu Tingzhou and Mu Zhengguang.

Zhao Yuxi was very upset. She was worried that Gu Tingzhou would burst into tears again when he got home. Song Yihan had suffered such a big loss at the dinner party. She was very likely to be angry with Gu Tingzhou. He might not be able to bear Song Yihan's humiliation and accusations.

Zhao Yuxi wanted Gu Tingzhou to understand some truths. She never thought of putting him in a dilemma, let alone making him sad and crying. She forgave Song Yihan again and again, not only because she wanted to leave a good impression on Gu Tingzhou, but also because she wanted to relieve some pressure on Gu Tingzhou. However, Song Yihan took her tolerance as cowardice and became more and more unscrupulous, causing harm to everyone.

Xu Ying thinks that Gu Tingzhou and Song Yihan are not suitable together: Zhao Yuxi has many shortcomings. She doesn't respect Gu Tingzhou very much. She always wants to control Gu Tingzhou, but she has given Gu Tingzhou many benefits and she has never trampled on Gu Tingzhou's dignity. But Song Yihan is different. Gu Tingzhou is having dinner with his friends. During this time, Song Yihan is furious and says that Zhao Yuxi treats Gu Tingzhou as a slave. She can be so cruel to say this. Who does she think Gu Tingzhou is? She wants Gu Tingzhou to be her slave? Zhao Yuxi wants to break up the two people, and I also think it's better to break them up.

Mu Zhengguang thought that Gu Tingzhou must like Song Yihan very much, otherwise how could he tolerate her unreasonable behavior and scolding? However, this kind of love is not normal. How can you lose your dignity and bottom line just because you like someone? If Gu Tingzhou married Song Yihan, would they be able to live together? They haven't seen each other for several years, and they quarrel as soon as they meet. It's better to break up such a relationship.

Jiang Mengxi admired Zhao Yuxi's tolerance and decisiveness. She had a perfect grasp of the rhythm of the conversation, and with just a few words, Song Yihan was humiliated and fled. She won this duel. Fortunately, this person is our friend, not our enemy, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Gu Tingzhou was so angry at Song Yihan that he felt dizzy. He thought that he had accepted Song Yihan's apology and had given her a piece of meat, which was the most he could do. He didn't need to help her with anything else. He could talk about it when he got home. Now, he should concentrate on eating dinner. If he continued to dwell on this matter, he might lose not only his face, but also his friends.

After that, he didn't pick up meat for Song Yihan anymore, but he picked up meat for Zhao Yuxi.

Song Yihan felt deeply that this man was hopeless: You would rather pick up meat for Zhao Yuxi than for me? Is it so happy to be a slave to Zhao Yuxi? Even if you pick up another piece of meat for me, I will think that you are enduring humiliation and sleeping on straw and tasting gall. You are too ruthless, you are too indifferent, you are too useless, you deserve to have so few friends.

Gu Tingzhu deliberately ignored Song Yihan. He wanted Song Yihan to sober up and stop being so excited.

Seeing that Gu Tingzhou was willing to stand by him, Zhao Yuxi felt that all her previous efforts were worth it. Gu Tingzhou was indeed a grateful person. However, the way he treated Song Yihan made the conflict between them even more irreconcilable. Song Yihan would definitely say something more extreme, and he would be hurt even more.

Zhao Yuxi achieved her goal, but she was not as happy as she had imagined. Although she had gained the happiness she had not imagined, that happiness was diluted by worry, and she even blamed herself a little. This lesson was unforgettable for Gu Tingzhou, and for her as well.

She thought that even if Gu Tingzhou made such a mistake again in the future, she could not solve the problem in the same way, as this method would cause too much harm to both parties. If she could succeed this time, she might also succeed next time, but success did not mean a good result.

Judging from his behavior, he admires me more and relies on me more. However, deep down in his heart, he is also more afraid of me, which is not a good thing.
