Chapter 73 I Don't Like Forcing People to Do Things They Don't Like

After listening to Gu Bai's words, Li Jiuyuan's already gloomy face darkened further with his cold eyes.

A sarcastic smile curled at the corner of his lips:

"If I had known from the beginning, I would never have let them get to this point."

He was filled with regret.

The thought of the woman who was still whimpering and begging for mercy in his arms last night, and then turning around and hooking up with another man, made him realize that she was the same woman who had been with him the night before.

Li Jiuyuan's violent temper flared uncontrollably; he wished he could devour Li Yunqi alive and imprison Jiang Momo.

She was to be merely a plaything in his hands.

The only person Jiang Momo could see every day when she opened her eyes, and the only name she could murmur, was herself!

However, Li Jiuyuan still did not do that.

He had a million reasons, but only one remained on his lips:

"I don't like to force people to do things they don't want to do."

"She's just a woman. Since she dared to lie to me, I don't mind continuing to play along with her."

"In the end, I'd like to see how she'll handle this."

Gu Bai listened and nodded, as if he were listening very attentively.

"Yes, that's right. How can a woman stop President Li's path to success?"

"I just don't know who was the person who rushed to see President Jing on Jiang Momo's behalf a few days ago, or who saw Jiang Momo's photo with someone else and was so angry that they almost smashed their phone."

He spoke with a straight face and showed no mercy in exposing all of Li Jiuyuan's excuses.

In his opinion, this person is just foul-mouthed; he clearly cares a lot, but he pretends to be indifferent.

Although Gu Bai didn't know what had happened between Li Jiuyuan and Jiang Momo, nor did he know why Li Jiuyuan had such complicated feelings for a woman.

But he knew...

What does "chasing after one's wife is like going through a crematorium" mean?

Gu Bai didn't intend to remind him. Anyway, Master Li Jiu would never listen to what he said, so he might as well just watch the show from the sidelines.

Li Jiuyuan: ...

"If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."

Gu Bai said "yes, yes, yes" several times, and finally said, "But don't blame me for not reminding you, you were the one who sent someone to pick her up, and in the end you didn't go and check on her yourself, that's probably not appropriate."

Li Jiuyuan said succinctly, "I'm not going."

He added, in a way that seemed to imply something was amiss:

"I'm just afraid she won't be able to find her way and will embarrass me."

Even so, his hand, which was on the table to sign, curled up slightly.

"Don't you want her to know that you were the one who introduced her?"

Li Jiuyuan: "...I don't want to."

Seeing the other person's reluctance, Gu Bai found it amusing.

However, being a good brother for many years, he decided to help Li Jiuyuan out of humanitarian considerations.

"Alright, if you don't want to pick it up, then I'll help you."

"Otherwise, what if a young girl like her goes to Jingchuang alone, unfamiliar with the place and the people, and gets bullied?"

Li Jiuyuan swallowed his words of refusal.

Finally, with a cold gaze and a chilling voice, he uttered a single word: "Get lost."

Gu Bai made a "yes, sir" gesture and quickly "rolled away".

After everyone left, Li Jiuyuan sat at the table, but his expression remained unsettled.

He clicked his tongue in annoyance, and after some hesitation, he took out his phone and sent a message to Lao Wu.

Once we get there, stay with her for a while. If anything happens, tell me immediately.

Watch out for Gu Bai; don't let him spout nonsense.

【besides……】

Li Jiuyuan typed the last words, then deleted them, and threw his phone away in a huff.

He shook his head with a self-deprecating smile.

"Li Jiuyuan, you've really gone mad."

"What makes you so worried about such a heartless and fickle woman?"

……

Jiang Momo was a little tired, and the pain made her dizzy, so she quickly fell asleep.

The vehicle gradually became smoother, and when she woke up, they were already downstairs at Jingchuang Building.

With Lao Wu not in the car, Jiang Momo immediately perked up.

"Uncle Wu...?"

No sooner had he spoken than Old Wu reopened the car door and handed him a thermos.

"Hot water."

Old Wu was clearly a man of few words; once he finished speaking, he shut his mouth completely.

Jiang Momo stared at the thermos cup, puzzled.

What a coincidence!

She took it and casually asked, "Uncle Wu, how long have we been here? And how long have I been asleep?"

And why didn't you call her? What if it caused a delay?

Old Wu seemed not to have heard what Jiang Momo was saying, and replied irrelevantly, "If you're tired, you can sleep a little longer. President Jing isn't in a hurry."

He muttered to himself:

The main problem is that President Jing hasn't returned yet.

If the young mistress goes now, she'll probably come back empty-handed, and her boss Li's intentions will become an open secret.

"That won't do."

Jiang Momo quickly got out of the car, straightened her clothes, and headed into the building.

Old Wu followed closely behind her, never leaving her side.

Jiang Momo took a step, and Lao Wu followed suit.

At first, it was fine; Jiang Momo thought it was just on the way. But after a while, she couldn't help but think about it more.

Could Uncle Wu be someone sent by President Jing to investigate me?

However, this thought did not linger in Jiang Momo's mind for long. She was preoccupied with many things and did not notice that she almost bumped into a man.

By the time Jiang Momo realized what was happening, she was already only half a meter away from the other person.

She didn't have time to exclaim.

The next second, the man in front of her quickly took three meters back, looking wary.

Jiang Momo: ?

Something floated by.

Gu Bai clutched his chest, panting.

Thank goodness, I survived.

If that jealous king Li Jiuyuan found out that he had bumped into his wife, he'd probably skin him alive.

"Feel sorry……"

Jiang Momo sincerely apologized, and Gu Bai resisted the urge to extort money from her. He turned to Old Wu, who had followed him, and said, "I'm here. You can go about your business."

Upon hearing this, Old Wu indeed left.

At this moment, Jiang Momo became even more curious about the person who had suddenly appeared in front of her.

Do you know me?

She looked like she had designer labels stuck to her clothes today; it seemed like everyone could recognize her.

Gu Bai is most skilled at lying.

"Actually, we've met before, on a dark and stormy night."

Faced with such nonsense, Jiang Momo gave an awkward twitch of her lips.

Realizing that what he said was too outrageous, Gu Bai changed his words:

"Mrs. Li, my name is Gu Bai. I am a good friend of Mr. Li. I met you at the Li family's old mansion last time."

Jiang Momo pursed her lips.

That's how it is.

To be precise, it was indeed a dark and windy night.

Recalling that day, and the scene of Yao Chun forcing her, Jiang Momo didn't want to think about it any further. She smiled and greeted Gu Bai, changing the subject:

"Well...Mr. Gu, is there something you need from me today?"

Jiang Momo could no longer maintain her smile after speaking only halfway through her sentence.

She suddenly thought of something.

If Gu Bai met him here, then Li Jiuyuan must already know that Gu Bai joined Jingchuang!?

Even if you don't know now, you'll find out sooner or later.

So, her identity...

Panic overwhelmed Jiang Momo's reason.

Her mind raced, preparing an excuse in the shortest possible time.
