After divorcing the mute girl, President Gu knelt down and begged for reconciliation.

Chapter 166 My Daughter is Beautiful
Before Song Jin'an could react, the man's warm lips pressed against hers, as if he wanted her to deeply fulfill her marital obligations.

She froze, staring at him with her eyes wide open, when a pair of large hands covered her eyes, obscuring her vision.

"Close your eyes, I don't want to see you."

His voice was strong, and even his tone was very powerful.

Her slightest attempt to escape only resulted in even stronger oppression.

……

The next day, as Gu Xijue sat in the car on his way to work, he was still thinking about that matter.

I wonder how he could have been so easily seduced last night...

His eyes were thoughtful, and the image of her from last night still lingered in his mind.

He squinted slightly, feeling like he had really seen a ghost. It was as if he had been provoked so easily that he had unleashed a powerful attack on his own.

Over the years, he clearly never liked her. For men, whether they stand at the bottom of society or at the top of the pyramid, sex is something that can never be erased, but love is not necessarily something that can be.

Last night he...

It was as if there was a different feeling, as if he had some other feelings for Song Jin'an?
Thinking of this, Gu Xijue rubbed his temples. Absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible.

It must be the awful things she's done lately that's bothering her; that must be it.

He arrived at the company to handle official business, and less than two hours had passed when his phone suddenly rang. His eyes were still on the documents, and he held the phone to his ear with one hand: "Hello?"

Soon, Duan Nanhe's voice came through the phone receiver.

"Where are you?"

"The company." Gu Xijue didn't even raise an eyebrow before uttering those two words, thinking that this man, whose brain was full of tofu dregs, was going to send him to the hospital again.

"What's the point of going to work? Today's not a day for groaning at the office." The man on the other end of the phone seemed to be forcing himself to stay awake, looking somewhat listless.

"Just tell me if you have anything to say."

"Both of your buddies have broken up with their boyfriends, come over and cheer us two unfortunate souls up..."

Duan Nanhe's voice rose a few decibels: "The usual place, at my estate. Drive over. I had a whole roasted lamb brought over, it's roasting right now."

Gu Xijue asked calmly, "Are you with Xiao Yi?"

"Yeah, why are you asking so many questions? Are you coming or not?" Duan Nanhe said somewhat discontentedly. At this moment, Xiao Yi snatched his phone away and spoke.

"I'm fishing with Young Master Duan by the sea. Come over here, we'll have grilled fish and lamb again tonight."

Gu Xijue didn't speak, but Duan Nanhe's chattering voice could be heard from the side: "He can come or not, it's better if he doesn't come, we can eat by ourselves!"

"It's up to you. I'm hanging up now."

Xiao Yi hung up the phone immediately and tossed it to Duan Nanhe.

They both thought Gu Xi would never come back, after all, that person had very low desires, not to mention his appetite.

Moreover, he's a workaholic, so I thought he wouldn't come, but to my surprise, Gu Xijue showed up an hour later.

When he arrived, the whole roasted lamb was being brushed with oil, while Duan Nanhe and Xiao Yi were sea fishing. When the butler brought him there by yacht, Duan Nanhe was startled.

"Didn't you say you weren't coming?"

"When did I say I wouldn't come?" Xiao Yi saw him arrive and tossed him a fishing rod: "Sit here with me, there are still seats available."

Gu Xijue baited the hook and cast the line in one smooth motion. Then the three of them sat down on chairs, with a small table between each person, on which were water, snacks, and wine.

"Why did you two decide to hang out together?" Gu Xijue asked, his expression hidden behind his sunglasses.

Duan Nanhe popped a grape into his mouth and said, "We're both in the same boat, healing our heartbreaks."

He's always been like this; he doesn't sound like someone who's been heartbroken.

"Young Master Duan has been a womanizer for so many years, yet he's actually fallen for one?" Xiao Yi teased with a smile.

"You really shouldn't disbelieve me." Duan Nanhe turned to look at Xiao Yi: "I didn't quite understand before why you've been hanging around Su Ruoya for so many years. Women, what kind of women don't we have? We just need to beckon with a finger, and they'll take off their clothes and sleep with you, right?"

He never believed that there were chaste and virtuous women in the world who didn't like money.

Even if there is any, it's just something they deliberately create to attract men.

“But this time, she’s different.” Gu Xijue seemed to have anticipated his prediction, saying exactly what Duan Nanhe wanted to say.

Duan Nanhe pursed his lips: "Why did you say the words I was going to say?"

However, he quickly brought up Yu Yousheng again: "Yu Yousheng is really different from other women. I've been a womanizer for so many years, and this is the first woman I've ever liked."

The Duan family had always turned a blind eye to his frivolous behavior outside, as long as he obeyed the family's arrangements to get married at the appropriate age.

But now it seems he's not going to listen to his family anymore.

"Do you really like her that much?" Gu Xijue looked at Duan Nanhe's expression, which was sometimes beaming and sometimes sad, and curled the corners of his lips.

He picked up a bottle of wine and poured it into a glass: "Have you ever thought that it's only because she rebelled against you and didn't like you among all the women you've been with that you think she's special?"

Duan Nanhe is a notorious womanizer among the rich young masters of Haicheng.

The idea of ​​a prodigal son returning home only exists in novels; it's impossible for it to happen in real life.

Xiao Yi also agreed with Gu Xijue's statement and looked at Duan Nanhe, who was thinking to himself, and said, "I think what Young Master Gu said makes some sense. Maybe you really are just curious."

After all, you've seen so many dead fish, so when you suddenly see one that's alive and kicking, it's bound to have some unique characteristics.

“I can sense it, no,” Duan Nanhe said. He could distinguish between what was new and what he liked.

As he was thinking, he suddenly asked Gu Xijue, "What about you and the little mute girl? What are your feelings for her?"

This time, Gu Xijue didn't say anything more.

Several minutes passed before he spoke indifferently and bluntly: "I don't know."

These four words struck Duan Nanhe's ears, and he smiled: "Indeed, those involved are often blinded by their own perspective."

"Don't you realize that every move the little mute makes can tug at your heartstrings?"

At first, Gu Xijue really disliked Song Jin'an; anyone could see that during those years.

Furthermore, he desperately wanted a divorce, but couldn't because of the old man, so he had to endure it. But when did he subconsciously accept the fact that his wife was mute? Even Gu Xijue himself probably doesn't know...

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Gu Xijue glanced at him indifferently, his voice very calm.

"He's really stubborn as a mule." Duan Nan muttered to himself, thinking that this guy was really persistent and wouldn't give up until he was completely convinced.

No one spoke again, but Xiao Yi brought up the subject again: "I heard from Young Master Duan that your daughter is very beautiful."
