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

Chapter 179 Eating Dessert
Six months later, even Song Jin'an found it somewhat unbelievable.

The couple lived in harmony, and Gu Xijue introduced her to all his friends, not only Duan Nan and them, but also some business partners.

Even though she knew that people were still gossiping behind her back, she felt that their relationship had been slowly repairing itself over the past six months, and on the surface, it seemed like a beautiful piece of jade.

It appears there are no cracks.

But for some reason, Song Jin'an always felt a little flustered in her chest.

Sometimes her heart would race, and she would feel that none of this belonged to her, but was just a dream.

……

It was another banquet. In the past six months, Song Jin'an had attended many banquets hand in hand with Gu Xijue.

The evening banquet was somewhat special; it was Su Ruoya's engagement party. Her fiancé was a bit older, about eight years older than Gu Xijue.

However, the couple still looked good together in their engagement photos.

That evening, Song Jin'an wore a light blue short skirt that suited her well and didn't steal the spotlight. Her hair was up, her face was lightly made up, and she was carrying a small decorative bag. She looked like a very sophisticated urban woman.

Although she has been appearing in public all this time, the rumors behind her have not stopped because she cannot speak.

Tonight's engagement party for Su Ruoya has many people guessing that either Gu Xijue will come or none of them will, but no one expected...

The couple both came.

The rumors of a love triangle between these three people have been escalating, and even though the parties involved seem indifferent, some people are still pushing the issue to make the relationship public again.

Therefore, when they saw Song Jin'an appear arm in arm with Gu Xijue, their expressions were particularly surprised.

Moreover, Song Jin'an's aura seemed even stronger, and she possessed a radiance that no one could conceal, and there was also a look of happiness on her face.

This surprised everyone, even Song Jin'an initially found it hard to believe.

However, countless eyes in the venue were fixed on Song Jin'an, and Gu Xijue, standing next to her, chuckled: "Nervous?"

He thought that she was nervous because she saw Su Ruoya.

Standing not far away, Jiang Ciyu stared intently at her, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Of course, Gu Donglin and his wife would also be present. When a daughter from such a prestigious family gets engaged, no matter how unpleasant things were before, as long as they haven't completely broken off relations, there's still room for reconciliation.

When Madam Gu saw that Song Jin'an had also arrived, she gave her a cold look. In fact, Madam Gu had never liked Song Jin'an showing her face in public.

The reason is simple: she is mute. Even though she is now studying at an adult school and is about to receive her adult bachelor's degree, in Mrs. Gu's eyes, she is no different from an illiterate person.

Therefore, she would really dislike meeting someone in such a situation.

Seeing his son chatting and laughing with Song Jin'an, his expression turned even more unpleasant.

What is this? He must be blind to actually want to live a good life with Song Jin'an, who is mute!

Not far away, Jiang Ciyu walked towards Song Jin'an, attracting the attention of many people.

Ignoring everyone's gaze, he stood in front of Song Jin'an, and before speaking to her, he glanced at Gu Xijue, who was chatting with other CEOs to the side.

"You've been doing well lately."

Song Jin'an raised an eyebrow, thinking, "Isn't that obvious?"
Meanwhile, people were already talking behind her back. "That mute girl is always looking for something better, even if she's not getting what she wants. Does she think she can seduce the second young master of the Jiang family?"

The words may be rough, but the principle is sound. As she spoke, she was immediately interrupted in a low voice by the person next to her: "Keep your voice down, or you'll be dead if someone hears you!"

After all, not many people in Haicheng dare to mess with the Gu and Jiang families, so you have to be careful what you say. If they find fault with you, you'll be in big trouble.

Do you want me to have a bad life?

Song Jin'an really felt that the man in front of her was toxic; what kind of questions were he asking?
She used to be very afraid of communicating in sign language in such situations, but now she is no longer afraid of other people's stares.

"You've grown a lot, is it all because of Gu Xijue?" Jiang Ciyu asked slowly.

Song Jin'an frowned and gestured with her hand.

Don't you think that we're not familiar with each other, and that your question is too presumptuous?
She had been used by the man in front of her several times, and she had already kicked him out of the friendship zone each time.

She stared coldly at the man in front of her, feeling that he was there to cause trouble.

"I thought we were still friends."

Jiang Ciyu smiled, then glanced at Gu Xijue who was looking this way: "Your husband is indeed very concerned about you, and he keeps looking this way."

Song Jin'an looked over and found that Gu Xijue's expression was indeed not good, and his eyes seemed to be warning her to avoid contact with the man in front of her.

She took a few steps back, turned and left without saying anything more, heading to the dessert section to find some peace and quiet, occasionally grabbing a piece or two of dessert to eat.

Wherever she goes, it becomes a battleground for gossip, with two women chatting behind her.

"Do you know that the Gu family has found a tutor for Gu Hetang, whose surname is Yu?"

“My husband said that a few days ago he went to Gu’s to discuss cooperation and saw that teacher surnamed Yu coming out of Gu’s president’s office, and she was still buttoning her shirt as she came out…”

As soon as she said that, the woman next to her, whose gossip radar was already going off, started clicking.

"real or fake?"

"How could my husband's words be false?" she said with an air of absolute certainty, then gave Song Jin'an a knowing look, glancing at her back several times.

"Tell me, I want to know if a mute person actually makes a sound in bed?"

"I've heard that the voices of mute people are very unpleasant, like an old, dilapidated windmill, extremely harsh. I don't know how President Gu can stand it when he does that kind of thing."

That's a rather ambiguous statement, but what else can women talk about if not these kinds of things?
Are we really going to talk about our careers?
"Keep your voice down, or someone will hear you." The person next to her quickly nudged her elbow.

But she chuckled softly, "I doubt she'll call out, otherwise the tutor wouldn't have snatched her away. But that tutor is quite attractive..."

As they talked behind them, they certainly looked on with expressions of anticipation, as if they were watching a good show.

Song Jin'an knew that these rich ladies and heiresses were never good at saying nice things, so she never cared about them.

She pursed her lips, ate her dessert, and just wanted to say those few words to Yu Yousheng, but her face couldn't help but show displeasure.

She felt a bit upset, but after she calmed down, she realized that it must be because their relationship had been too good lately, giving her the wrong impression.

Otherwise, how could she possibly be angry like before...?

She was lost in thought, so she didn't notice that Gu Xijue had already walked towards her with a wine glass in his hand...
