After Transmigration: Unexpectedly Wed the Ruthless Tycoon-Chapter 148 - 137
"What’s there that’s unclear?" Gu Fuqiao glanced at Chen Bajin and said.
Chen Bajin quickly explained to Gu Fuqiao that Wang Yunqing had asked her to bring the book over. Apparently, Gu Fuqiao wanted to borrow a book during her last visit, but he didn’t have it then. Later, he found the book but didn’t have her contact information. So he gave it to Chen Bajin to pass it on to her.
Gu Fuqiao couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this. She hadn’t even exchanged two words with Wang Yunqing. She felt that conversing with him was utterly pointless, with no opportunity for substantial interaction. How could she possibly want to borrow a book from someone like him?
Gu Fuqiao shared her perspective with Chen Bajin, who appeared surprised, then thought carefully and suddenly said to her, "Ah Jiao, I think Wang Yunqing has improper intentions. It seems like he has some ideas about you?"
Gu Fuqiao was aware that Wang Yunqing’s thoughts were improper, that his worldview was skewed. As for whether he harbored any intentions, she wasn’t sure.
She didn’t care either way. She didn’t plan to attend any author gatherings in the future; she just lived in the courtyard and only went out occasionally to buy groceries. She figured she wouldn’t encounter him.
But hearing Chen Bajin say this, Gu Fuqiao asked, "What did Wang Yunqing say to you?"
Her biggest worry was that Wang Yunqing, being self-righteous, might have told Chen Bajin some nonsense about how she liked him and was pursuing him. That would be a mess!
Even though Chen Bajin absolutely trusted her, it would be best to clarify things sooner rather than later.
Chen Bajin said to Gu Fuqiao, "He randomly asked me today if your relationship with Captain Yan was good. It felt off to me initially, but then he said he was worried you were unwilling to marry, fearing old-fashioned thinking."
Gu Fuqiao coldly replied, "Even if I were unwilling, what does that have to do with him?"
In reality, Wang Yunqing indeed wanted to hear her say she was unwilling so he could swoop in under the guise of saving women, aiming to rescue Gu Fuqiao. But he was unaware that theirs was a mutual affection; moreover, it was a legally recognized marriage that couldn’t be changed on a whim.
"Exactly, at first I thought he was being genuinely kind. Reflecting on it now, that jerk’s just interested in Ah Jiao, trying all sorts of ways to get me to pass weird things to her! Who knows what might be hidden in this book!"
After saying this, Chen Bajin took the book she had handed to Gu Fuqiao, flipped through the pages carefully, and indeed found a love poem inside!
The two read the poem and found the words particularly brazen!
Gu Fuqiao felt repulsed, and after reading it, they were both covered in goosebumps!
"This is just too disgusting!" After putting down the book, Gu Fuqiao remarked. Chen Bajin also felt completely used, extremely displeased, and suggested throwing the book away.
Gu Fuqiao stopped Chen Bajin right away. She said it wouldn’t be rational to throw the book out now. If Wang Yunqing came asking for it later, how could they explain?
As for the love poem inside, Gu Fuqiao thought of tearing it up, but since it was unsigned, if she tore it and Wang Yunqing denied it, things would become problematic. So, Gu Fuqiao decided to return the book to Wang Yunqing with Chen Bajin, unchanged.
Additionally, if Wang Yunqing dared to make any move, she planned to directly tell him to give up hope and not disturb them further, warning him they might go to the police station to report his harassment! 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Chen Bajin agreed this was a great idea and nodded. After all, Wang Yunqing worked at the supply and marketing cooperative, and with so many people around, he probably wouldn’t dare do anything.
The two discussed and decided to go to the cooperative while heading out to buy groceries the next day.
By evening, after dinner, Gu Fuqiao started washing dishes and saw Yan Zhen Guo heading back to the room to sleep.
Yan Zhen Guo hadn’t tried to pounce on her directly today, which made Gu Fuqiao quite happy. She briskly finished washing the dishes, took a shower, and then returned to the bedroom to find Yan Zhen Guo reading the love poem.
