Chapter 529: 529 I didn’t lie to you, she really is my wife (8)_1
If he provokes Xu Mandi any further, she’s capable of doing anything.
He couldn’t risk Qianxun’s life like that.
"I’m going to kill her!" Xu Mandi screamed furiously, "Kill this wretch of a woman!"
In her frenzy, the knife against Eleven’s throat seemed to press even tighter.
"This has nothing to do with her," Gu Liancheng said, referring to Gu Tianyu’s affairs.
"Has nothing to do with her? Those instances of her cuddling and embracing Tianyu, were they all a lie!"
Eleven didn’t dare to move a muscle. A knife doesn’t have eyes, and she could bleed out from a cut artery at any moment. She could see Gu Liancheng standing up front, with Gu Tianyu obstructed from view. Fei’er too looked worried, but she couldn’t help at this moment.
"It was all a lie," Gu Liancheng said, "It was a bet we made. If no one could identify her as not being Mandy before the bet was over, she would win."
"Why would you guys propose such a bet? What’s the significance?!" Xu Mandi wasn’t easily convinced.
"She’s a student of West Shadow. To prove to me what she learned in the last four years was worthwhile, she brought up this bet. She found out that you and Gu Tianyu were divorced, but nobody here knows, so she proposed this bet."
Gu Liancheng spoke the lie without batting an eye.
Not only Xu Mandi, but also others who heard the story seemed to believe him, each expressing a "so that’s what happened" look.
But Gu Xi and some others who had been in the inner hall earlier did not buy this explanation.
The way he abruptly grabbed her hand and the words he spoke confirmed that their meeting in the inner hall was coincidental, and it wasn’t premeditated playacting.
Being able to keep calm in such a dire situation and think of a solution, Eleven thought, that’s where Gu Liancheng’s personal charisma lay.
"Why did she have to prove anything to you?"
"I paid her tuition for those four years."
"Why would you pay her tuition!"
"Why can’t I fund my wife’s education?"
This woman wasn’t Mandy, everyone already knew that, but they never expected, she was actually Gu Liancheng’s...?
Whereas, Shang Muxue was completely stunned.
What did he say?
Fang Eleven... is his??
No, that couldn’t be true!!
Fang Eleven, she was just a lowly secret lover. How could she be... Mrs. Gu?!
"Your wife? How do I know you’re not lying!"
"There’s a mole on her waist. You can check. It’s not a place visible unless you’re either my wife or a woman I’ve been intimate with."
Xu Mandi was led by Gu Liancheng to believe it, even preparing to check. At that moment, his gaze shifted quickly and he moved to her in a flash, grabbing her wrist and twisting it, pulling Eleven into his arms.
Xu Mandi angrily burst out, "You lied to me!!"
Brandishing the fruit knife in her other hand, Xu Mandi lunged at Eleven with all her might.
"Ah—" Eleven immediately turned to protect her belly on instinct, not sparing a thought for anything else.
She had caught a whiff of a thick, metallic smell in the air, which was growing more pungent. However, upon a quick self-check, she didn’t feel any pain at all. Then...?
"I didn’t lie to you," Gu Liancheng speaking truthfully, "She really is my wife."
Little by little, blood began to drip off the knife.
Filled with fear, Eleven looked up to see Gu Liancheng’s face in front of her. His eyebrows were furrowed as though in pain. Queasy from the metallic scent of blood, she froze, not daring to look back.
