4676 Never Too Late to Love (83)

Ye Yuqin turned around with a stiff expression, only to see Gu Chengze standing behind her with a cold smile on his face.

“Auntie, are you about to leave? Aren’t you going to even say goodbye? Aren’t you staying for lunch?”

“No… I don’t think there’s a need to!” Ye Yuqin was extremely nervous. For some reason, Gu Chengze’s apparently gentle smile gave her the creeps.

Some people are scarier when they smile than when they don’t.

Ye Yuqin took half a step back and bumped into the bodyguard’s chest.

Gu Chengze saw her frightened expression and slowly took half a step closer. “Why is Auntie trembling? Weren’t you flaunting your power earlier? Why do you now look like I’m about to chew you up?”

With a loud plop, Ye Yuqin fell to her knees in front of him. She did not even dare to look up at his expression.

“Xiao Gu, isn’t this… Auntie did not understand the situation clearly! Aiya, I just wanted to give Bai Sheng a good home! I didn’t know that you were such a capable person! From the time Bai Sheng was a child, she had suffered. Naturally, my heart aches for her and I hope that she can marry into a better home. At least, someone with a better family background. A car and a house are the basic! I think there must be some misunderstanding!”

“Misunderstanding?” Gu Chengze raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, “What sort of misunderstanding?”

“Wasn’t it so… I thought you were deceiving her into marriage?”

Ye Yuqin continued, “At that point, I thought that you were one of those men who use sweet words to deceive girls. I didn’t think you had much capability, but would hold the girl back for the rest of her life! However, I now know that you are a capable man. If Bai Sheng marries you, she will definitely not suffer, hehe…” Her smile was extremely awkward, but it was uglier than crying.

Gu Chengze glanced at her contemptuously. “So, that’s what you think of me? A scammer?”

“No, no, that’s… that’s a misunderstanding!” Ye Yuqin frowned bitterly and said, “Bai Sheng did not mention your situation to me in the first place. I did not know that you came from a rather good family background. Since that’s the case, then I… I agree to your marriage with Bai Sheng!”

These words were undoubtedly said to please Gu Chengze.

However, Gu Chengze laughed icily and retorted, “When I married Bai Sheng, I never thought of getting your approval. Although you are Bai Sheng’s legal guardian in name, don’t think that I don’t know how you have treated her all these years. This score cannot be settled just like that!”

Trembling in fear, Ye Yuqin quickly explained, “I… I’ve treated Bai Sheng well! When she was young, her parents died early and even though my living conditions weren’t the best, I took her in and raised her! At that time, there was a couple who offered 50,000 yuan to buy her and take her in to raise as their own daughter. How could I not know that they were out to buy themselves a child bride! So I refused! 50,000 yuan, no less. At that time, because I had just undergone surgery and was recuperating at home, even though I had a huge debt, I did not go against my conscience to take that money!”

“Oh, really?”

Gu Chengze smiled. “I heard Bai Sheng mention this before. Her grandmother did not seem to say that. She said that the couple wanted to pay 50,000 for it.”
