Seeing Ye Xingbei’s surprise, Gu Junzhu suddenly laughed.
His face was so striking that when he abruptly started laughing, it was dazzling, enough to captivate anyone.
He ruffled Ye Xingbei’s hair, stunning eyes twinkling with stars, showing a fleeting tenderness. “I’ve heard the piano music you play—it’s pure. A young girl who is willing to sacrifice her youth, her reputation, her best time to raise a baby that a woman who framed you thrust into your arms… how would such a girl care about the wealth of the Gu family?”
This was why his father felt at ease to let Ye Xingbei marry him.
From the very beginning, his father never wanted Jiang Siyou or Jiang Lingyu. Even if the Jiang family wanted to marry Jiang Siyou and Jiang Lingyu into their family, his father would not accept it.
The daughter-in-law his father wanted was always Ye Xingbei, from start to finish.
Luckily, the folks from the Jiang family cooperated. Hearing that he was dying, they did not want Jiang Siyou and Jiang Lingyu to become widows, and quickly shifted their sights onto Ye Xingbei, who had been left astray.
It nicely fitted his father’s wishes.
This was the wife his father had meticulously chosen for him from many options.
His father had made it clear, if he dared to divorce, he would go to his mother’s tombstone and drown himself.
Given his father’s stubborn temperament, if he said he would do it, he would do it.
So, thinking of divorce, then?
Anyway, he dared not think about it anymore.
Having no choice, he could only coax this little girl into pretending to be his wife.
They’ll take it one day at a time, at least letting the old gentleman live his last years peacefully.
Divorce and such things could only be considered after the old gentleman is gone.
Ye Xingbei was slightly surprised, “You’ve heard the piano music I play?”
“The piano version of Qingping Tune, your own composition, your own performance, right? Since I’ve decided to pretend to be your husband, naturally I need to know more about you,” Gu Junzhu looked at her, his lips slightly curved in a smirk, “After learning more about you, I found that I’m very satisfied with you! Having a wife so stunning and talented, I feel extremely honoured!”
Ye Xingbei raised an eyebrow, “I don’t seem to recall agreeing to pretend to be your wife. Are you being presumptuous?” free(w)ebnovel.com
Gu Junzhu laughed slightly, about to speak when his phone rang.
He opened the phone and saw a research document sent to him by one of his trusted subordinates.
Since he had decided to pretend to be Ye Xingbei’s husband, he certainly needed to know more about all aspects of Ye Xingbei.
Therefore, he dispatched his most trusted subordinate to investigate matters related to Ye Xingbei.
He was very interested in Ye Xingbei.
Therefore, his command was that no matter how trivial the matter was, as long as it was about Ye Xingbei, he wanted to know.
The investigation document his subordinate just sent him, surprised him greatly.
This Jiang family, the water runs deep.
Not simple at all!
He wondered how many unknown plots were hidden behind the illustrious doors of the first family in Jiang City.
Despite the numerous guesses aroused by the received document, his face remained expressionless as he toyed with his phone, casually looking up at Ye Xingbei with a seemingly amused smile, “Why don’t we make a trade?”
Ye Xingbei frowned, “What?”
Gu Junzhu, casual and confident in a way that seemed convinced that Ye Xingbei would agree, said, “You agree to pretend to be my wife and let me be Xiao Shumiao’s father. We’ll live together and I’ll tell you about your true parentage.”
“What?” Ye Xingbei looked at him in shock, “What did you say?”
Gu Junzhu looked at her, his eyes shining brightly like stars, “There isn’t a parent in this world who doesn’t love their own children. Have you never wondered why your parents would rather have Jiang Siyou, an adopted daughter, instead of you, their own daughter?”
