You Are My Gravity - Chapter 27

Chapter 27: It’s Good To Be A Scum 3

At first, Qin Se was relieved when she heard those words from Gu Jingyuan, but now, she couldn’t help but glare at him. Seriously, you were feeling pity for Shen Rui?!

His tone implied that he was feeling sorry for Shen Rui’s memory loss. Yet, now that Shen Rui couldn’t recall what had happened in the stairwell, wasn’t it a good thing for them?

Or did he wish for Shen Rui to recollect the memory of him being the adulterer?

If Shen Rui recalled it, he would have guessed the illicit relationship between his wife and Gu Jingyuan.

Once this relationship was exposed, what would become of President Gu’s reputation?!

‘Oh, I forgot! This guy is shameless!’

Qin Se put on a grateful face and thanked Gu Jingyuan, “Since Shen Rui has woken up. We shouldn’t hold up more of your time. Why don’t you take your leave now? We shouldn’t delay you any further.”

Shen Zhiguo regained his sense and hurriedly agreed, “Yes, yes, we shouldn’t keep you here for much longer. Even though you must be very busy, you have helped out a lot today, I wouldn’t dare to interrupt you any further.”

Gu Jingyuan threw a glance at Qin Se. “Alright, then!”

“Qin Se, quickly see Mr. Gu out!”

Qin Se rebuked Shen Zhiguo internally. What an exemplary father-in-law! He even helped create an opportunity for his daughter-in-law and her lover to spend some time together. How nice of him!

Your son was well-deserved with the cuckold!

Qin Se put on a false smile and said, “Certainly, Dad!”

She walked up to Gu Jingyuan and respectfully extended her hand, “Uncle, you may lead the way!”

Shen Rui watched as Qin Se and Gu Jingyuan left the hospital ward one after the other. He felt that something didn’t add up, but his headache was killing him. He couldn’t spare more attention for something else.

Still, he couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, aren’t we encountering Gu Jingyuan a little too often today?”

“Isn’t that a good thing? Especially now that the hospital is under his name. There’s nothing wrong with him coming by his hospital. You must take advantage of the opportunity next time and try to work on a project with his company…”

Shen Rui closed his eyes. The sound of Shen Zhiguo nagging beside his ears made his headache more and more severe. He kept on having a nagging feeling that he must have forgotten something important, but he just failed to remember what it was.

Qin Se, who had escorted Gu Jingyuan to the lobby, smiled and said to him, “Take care, Uncle!”

Gu Jingyuan didn’t move. Instead, he lowered his head to look at Qin Se as though he wanted to lock her figure within his amber eyes.

He asked, “Are you sure that you aren’t pregnant?”

Only then did Qin Se finally realize that this guy had been obsessed with this matter. He must have been worried that if she was indeed pregnant, the Gu family would have an illegitimate child in the future.

For an aristocratic family, having an illegitimate son was the sort of scandal that had to be avoided at all costs.

Qin Se put up three fingers and tried to convince him, “Nope, I swear with my good character that I don’t have a baby in my belly, Mr. Gu. Seriously, you have witnessed the situation at my home with your own eyes. My pregnancy was a pretense—fake. I bought the pregnancy test report so that I could get more money when I finally get divorced. Honestly, you should think of me as a scheming and malicious woman…”

Gu Jingyuan lowered his head and swept his glance across Qin Se’s stomach. “Qin Se, you’d better not lie to me, or else…”

Qin Se felt a cold stare brush across her belly. She shivered in fear and hurriedly replied, “Or else, I couldn’t find myself a good husband in the future.”

Looking at Gu Jingyuan’s unsympathetic face, Qin Se continued bitterly, “Uncle, I would spill my guts out to you. I don’t have the guts to borrow your seed! I have already regretted the incident the other day. Also, looking at this from a practical point of view, having a child with me after getting divorced would make it harder for me to find myself a good man! Am I right?”
