In Gu Nianjia's eyes, Lin Yiqian was looking down on her by remaining calm. It meant that Gu Nianjia was perceived as being insignificant.
Gu Nianjia was provoked by Lin Yiqian's nonchalant att.i.tude. She pointed a finger at Lin Yiqian as she asked loudly, "What else can you say apart from 'Oh'?"
Lin Yiqian was about to answer her when a few young ladies pa.s.sed by them and started pointing at Gu Nianshen while discussing among themselves.
"Look, isn't that Mega's CEO who can urinate three meters away?" One of the girls asked.
"He's very handsome," another girl answered.
"He truly is someone who has both looks and money."
"Is that his wife?"
"I think so."
The girls stopped walking as they began to stare at Gu Nianshen. Soon after, they noticed Lin Yiqian and identified her as Gu Nianshen's wife.
"I'm so envious of her for having a tall, handsome, and rich husband," one of the girls said.
"Being his wife must be wonderful."
Gu Nianjia clenched her fists tightly as she paced around.
She could not take this anymore. Meanwhile, Lin Yiqian lowered her head as she peeked at Gu Nianshen's facial expression turning even sourer. Lin Yiqian was trying very hard not to laugh.
Was this how a child embarra.s.sed his own father?
Lin Yiqian was very proud of Xiaoyu for what he did.
Some of the girls began taking pictures of Gu Nianshen with their phones. Consequently, more people were attracted as they began to surround Gu Nianshen.
Gu Nianjia had to do something. She immediately walked over to the young girls. "What are you talking about? Of course, my brother would not sleep with Lin Yiqian. He did not even sleep at home on the night they got married. He has plenty of other women."
Instead of worrying about enemies, Gu Nianshen had to worry about people who sided with him.
'Well done, sister-in-law. Haha…' Lin Yiqian thought to herself.
She already knew how the crowd would react to Gu Nianjia's words. Lin Yiqian leaned against the guardrail as she looked at Gu Nianjia blankly.
The crowd began to discuss loudly after hearing what Gu Nianjia had said.
"It seems like he really is a terrible husband," someone in the crowd said.
"Even his own sister says so. I guess the gossip on the internet was true," another person chipped in.
Gu Nianjia was bewildered by their open discussion.
Things were not going according to her plan. Her objective was for them to laugh at Lin Yiqian for being such a miserable wife.
Gu Nianjia turned to Gu Nianshen with a pleading look on her face.
However, to her surprise, Gu Nianshen seemed so furious that he might actually hit someone. Gu Nianjia immediately s.h.i.+fted her gaze away from him.
"Young girl, you are also a woman. How would you feel if your husband had other women?" An old woman with white hair walked up to Gu Nianjia and berated her.
As soon as the old woman spoke, the majority of women present started agreeing verbally. "That's right!"
"I…"
Gu Nianjia opened her mouth but no words came out. She felt tears in her eyes.
The old woman did not wait for her reply as she turned to face Gu Nianshen. "Young man, you have such a beautiful wife already. I can only say that you are being s.l.u.tty."
Although Lin Yiqian was fine with the old woman berating Gu Nianjia, she did not expect her to yell at Gu Nianshen as well. While Lin Yiqian did not exactly feel sorry for Gu Nianshen, she was more bewildered by the old woman's emotional behavior.
