Chapter 148 He Really Lied to Her
“Same to you.” Gong Zeyang’s tone became impatient as he continued, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first.” As he looked toward the direction that Su Ziyue had left, he felt rather frustrated. From his view, he could only watch Su Ziyue walk to the parking lot by herself.
All he was thinking about now was to hang up quickly and chase after her.
Su Yige heard the impatience in his voice and felt even more convinced that he had lied to her, but she remained calm as she said evenly, “Okay, goodbye.”
Before she could even finish, Gong Zeyang had hung up.
On the other side, a sinister look flashed across Su Yige’s pale face as she stared at her phone screen.
She had gone overseas for two months because she was secretly undergoing drug rehabilitation.
Except for that first call that she gave Gong Zeyang when she first arrived, she had waited until now when she had almost recovered before calling him again.
During these two months, Gong Zeyang had never called her.
This made her feel anxious.
That was why when she called Gong Zeyang, she had immediately brought up the wedding.
As long as they were married and she became the young mistress of the Gong Family, he would never be able to push her away anymore.
Su Yige bit her lip as she found the Gong Family home’s number and dialed it.
The Gong Family’s maid picked up the call. She knew Su Yige’s number very well, as she greeted quickly, “Miss Su.”
Su Yige softened her voice as she said, “Hello, can you call Mrs. Gong over?”
“Sure, Miss Su. Please hold.”
Then, there was silence before a middle-aged woman’s voice sounded on the other end. “Yige?”
“Aunt!” Su Yige greeted sweetly.
“Why are you calling all of a sudden?” Upon hearing Su Yige’s voice, Madam Gong’s tone was especially warm. She and Gong Shuzhe were very pleased with this future daughter-in-law of theirs.
Su Yige had always known how to win over others’ affection. She continued softly, “It’s been a long time since I met you. I really miss you! How have you been?”
“Darling Yige, it has just been a couple of months. I’m still the same, but both Uncle Gong and his son have been very busy lately. It’s already late now but both of them aren’t back yet…”
Madam Gong continued to grumble as she finally found someone who was willing to listen to her.
Although Su Yige had already guessed that Gong Zeyang wasn’t at home, she still felt upset when she heard the confirmation straight from his mother.
Gong Zeyang actually lied to me!
Su Yige took a deep breath and kept her fury and unease under wraps as she coaxed Madam Gong for a while before hanging up.
Once she hung up, Su Yige instantly threw her phone aside.
The phone smashed against the wall and fell onto the floor. The screen shattered to bits, clearly showing how furious she was at that moment.
Her first thought went straight to Su Ziyue.
After a moment, she calmed down. I’m going to return very soon anyway. Su Ziyue, just you wait!
Su Ziyue walked quickly to the parking lot, found her car and drove away immediately.
Gong Zeyang had no choice but to watch her car sped off into the distance.
It was already late and thus it would be meaningless to chase after her now.
He had always thought that Su Ziyue still loved him deep in her heart, so he didn’t mind waiting for a while longer since they had known each other for many years.
On the other hand, he was rather interested in breaking off the engagement with Su Yige.
Previously, he had never thought of that, but after Su Ziyue had asked him about it just now, he suddenly thought that it was doable.
Su Ziyue called Qin Muchen as she drove.
However, nobody picked up even though she had called multiple times.
Su Ziyue’s unease grew as she drove even faster.
He’s probably angry. He especially told me to go home early today. Not only did I not go home early, but I even hung up his phone. He must be extremely furious with me…
Anxiety filled her heart as she drove faster without completely focusing on the road.
Just as she wanted to call Qin Muchen again, she hadn’t noticed the car in front of her slowing down. Her car instantly rammed into it.
Bang! The car rocked sideways as her phone fell out of her hand and her vision became blurry…
Qin Muchen had no idea how far he had driven. He just kept driving on and on aimlessly on the highway.
Beef that was still sitting in the passenger seat kept whining in discomfort, but he didn’t seem to have heard it.
Finally, as he reached a junction, his phone lit up.
His heart pounded as he saw the word ‘Wifey’ flashing across the screen. He immediately stopped the car and reflexively reached out to accept the call.
However, his entire body tensed up halfway through the action.
The conversation between Su Ziyue and Gong Zeyang kept ringing in his mind.
“Are you willing to break off the engagement with Su Yige?”
“I knew it. I have always been in your heart.”
“Think whatever you want…”
She did not deny it, but agreed to have dinner with him instead.
Not only did she not listen to what he had told her this morning about coming home early, but she even wanted to have dinner with another man.
And that man was none other than Gong Zeyang.
Qin Muchen’s hand paused in mid-air. After a brief moment, he retracted it but didn’t restart the car.
Honk!
It was forbidden to stop the car along this road. Hence, many cars were honking behind him, but Qin Muchen didn’t have the slightest intention to start the car.
He stared at the phone screen as the call broke off automatically and the screen turned black.
Closing his eyes, Qin Muchen leaned back into his seat and imagined how her angry and worried face would look like right now because he hadn’t picked up her call.
Oh well. If she calls again, I’ll pick it up.
However, she didn’t call again. The drivers behind him had gotten impatient and someone came up to knock on his window.
Qin Muchen opened his eyes and saw the man knocking on his window. A sinister look flashed across his eyes as he opened the door and got down.
“Are you dumb? There are so many people waiting behind you. Don’t you have any conscience at all? You…” Although that man started off angrily, as he saw Qin Muchen’s cold and darkened expression, he could only swallow the rest of his words in fear.
Qin Muchen’s mood currently was terrible to the extreme. Obviously, he wouldn’t care about anyone else.
“Conscience? I don’t have any.” Qin Muchen narrowed his eyes dangerously.
The man swallowed uneasily. He glanced at the Bentley as hatred rose in his heart. “Don’t think that you’re amazing just because you drive a luxury car! People like you are just scum of the society!”
Scum? I don’t mind being even more of a scumbag.
Qin Muchen raised his leg and kicked the man to the ground. Then, he stepped on the man’s chest as he said coldly, “Go on.”
