Feng Chenqing's girlfriend, seeing that soone with his status was reporting to her over the phone at the very first mont and did so with such a grave expression, beca increasingly shocked by Ge Dongxu's identity.
Although Feng Jiahui had been unwilling to call Ge Dongxu "Uncle Master" before and had even been rude to him due to distrust in his dical skills, she completely accepted him as her uncle after he truly cured her father's illness. Her father had even lashed out at her several tis for Ge Dongxu's sake, to the point of threatening to break her legs, so Feng Jiahui had completely accepted Ge Dongxu as "Uncle Master" in her heart.

One can imagine how angry Feng Jiahui felt after hearing Feng Chenqing's report!
That was her father's junior brother, who also had done a favor for her father. Even Feng Jiahui had to be respectful in front of him, and now a subordinate of hers had openly insulted and struck his friend, even boasting about getting Ge Dongxu imprisoned!
How could this be tolerated? Wasn't this a direct slap in Feng Jiahui's face?
After listening to Feng Chenqing's report and asking again for details, Feng Jiahui hung up the phone with an icy face and imdiately called the leaders of the Human Resources Departnt and the Internal Audit Departnt, demanding a halt to Cui Mingshuo's work and an imdiate investigation into his years of service.
When Feng Jiahui got angry, it was no small matter. Cui Mingshuo soon received the notification to suspend his duties and stay within the capital in the coming days, and he was completely dumbfounded by this developnt.
For soone like him, how could he possibly be innocent? Once an investigation began, prison was inevitable!
In fact, Cui Mingshuo didn't know that, even if he wasn't going to prison, he wouldn't have the chance to do any more bad deeds. Because Ge Dongxu loathed his despicable behavior, he had secretly taken steps to ensure that not only would Cui Mingshuo never be able to have sexual relations again, but his kidneys would also slowly atrophy and fail.
Of course, at the ti, Ge Dongxu did not know that Cui Mingshuo was facing jail, otherwise, he would not have acted so covertly.
...
No matter the outco for Cui Mingshuo, Ge Dongxu was no longer concerned or cared—it was all in the past. The only thing he cared about now was the woman by his side who had been humiliated before.
"Does it still hurt?" Walking by the lake at Shichahai, Ge Dongxu asked softly.
After leaving the Jin Yi Entertainnt Club, the two of them took a taxi to Shichahai.
"Thank you, Dongxu. If it weren't for you tonight, I really..." Yuan Li shook her head and then looked up at Ge Dongxu, speaking softly.
"Didn't we agree there'd be no thanks between us? Besides, it was my responsibility as a 'knight in shining armor' that I failed tonight, you should be criticizing ," Ge Dongxu said.
"Criticize you?" Yuan Li's body trembled slightly, and her eyes showed a hint of infatuation. It was a while before she gently leaned on Ge Dongxu's shoulder and whispered, "How good it would have been to have t you ten years earlier!"
"Ten years earlier?" Ge Dongxu was taken aback and then laughed, "At that ti I was just a snotty little brat."
"Pfft!" Yuan Li could not help but laugh, saying, "I had forgotten that you were a little brat back then!"
"That's right, if it had been ten years ago, a beauty like you wouldn't even spare a glance," said Ge Dongxu, relieved to hear Yuan Li laugh.
"You're already so capable, and your words are so sweet. I wonder how many girls will be chard by you in the future," Yuan Li tightened her grip on Ge Dongxu's arm a bit, looking at him with delight and a playful scold in her eyes as she whispered.
"I'm not being sweet-talked, I'm speaking the absolute truth," Ge Dongxu said with a serious face.
"You really know how to make soone happy!" Yuan Li glanced at Ge Dongxu, her face filled with joy.
"It's getting a bit windy. Where are you staying tonight? I'll take you back," Ge Dongxu said with a look of concern, for it was winter and they had walked by the lake for a while.
"Can you walk with a little longer, please?" Yuan Li pleaded, looking at Ge Dongxu.
"Of course, it's good, I'm just worried about you catching a cold," Ge Dongxu said.
"No worries, don't I have you to help keep warm?" Yuan Li said with a laugh, hugging Ge Dongxu's arm tighter.
"All right then, let's walk a bit more, but if you feel cold, just tell ," Ge Dongxu said.
"Mm!" Seeing that Ge Dongxu didn't object, Yuan Li nodded happily.
Perhaps because Yuan Li was hugging too tightly, Ge Dongxu felt sowhat constrained, so he suddenly fell silent.
Yuan Li seed to really enjoy holding Ge Dongxu's arm and walking quietly, so she didn't say anything either.
The two of them walked in tacit silence for a while.
"Dongxu!" Suddenly Yuan Li called out softly.
"Hmm," Ge Dongxu responded.
"If I were also a high school senior right now, would you be attracted to ?" Yuan Li asked after a mont's silence.
When she asked this question, Ge Dongxu could clearly feel Yuan Li's body tense up slightly.
Ge Dongxu suddenly rembered the song they had sung earlier in the private room and recalled how his heartbeat had quickened as he watched Yuan Li while they sang. He was sowhat taken aback.
"Sorry! I shouldn't have asked that," Yuan Li said, noticing that Ge Dongxu had not answered for a long ti. A glint of tears appeared in her eyes, then she took a deep breath and whispered. She slowly loosened her tight hug around Ge Dongxu's arms.
"I wouldn't!" Ge Dongxu seed not to notice Yuan Li's emotional change, nor did he hear what she had just said, as he replied confidently.
Yuan Li's delicate body shook violently, and her hands suddenly let go. Although she knew that a man as outstanding as Ge Dongxu was out of her league, she still harbored a faint hope, a 'what if'! Even if it was just that 'what if', and not reality.
Because she had truly taken a liking to this young man who had just turned eighteen! It was an affection she had never felt before in her life!
If there truly was such a thing as unwavering love in this world, she believed that her feelings now represented just that!
"Because there are no 'what ifs'! Because I am a little attracted to the current you, but I..." Ge Dongxu's eyes showed a conflicted look.
His thoughts turned to Liu Jiayao, and for an instant, even the image of Jiang Lili flashed across his mind. If he was attracted to Yuan Li, what about Liu Jiayao? What about the first kiss they had, the passionate kisses from before?
At that mont, the eighteen-year-old Ge Dongxu felt a profound understanding of the contradictions and conflicts in romantic relationships.
"Don't say it!" Yuan Li turned around suddenly at his words, pressing her delicate finger against Ge Dongxu's lips, while the tears she had been holding back finally overflowed and slid down her smooth, fair cheeks.
A sense of joy and sweet happiness that she had never experienced before filled her heart completely in that mont.
"Thank you, that's enough for ! It really is enough!" Yuan Li suddenly threw herself into his embrace, hugging his waist tightly, looking up at him, and murmured.
Gazing down at Yuan Li's tear-streaked enchanting face and those lush lips under the dim yellow light, Ge Dongxu was moved and couldn't help but lower his head.
