Murong Yunxi's gaze turned cold. She had actually expected something like this to happen sooner or later.

Xue Shanshan smiled and looked at Murong Yunxi. She guessed that Murong Yunxi must be feeling very embarra.s.sed and was at a lost.

The other cla.s.smates also looked at Murong Yunxi with beaming curiosity. Everyone's expressions were slightly different. Some were like watching a show, some were waiting to see her embarra.s.s herself. Some even thought that Murong Yunxi was not as perfect as they had imagined; she was just a woman who did things as she liked.

Murong Yunxi's lips curled into a faint smile. "The country has ruled that the earliest age to get married is 20."

"But your child was already born when you were 20. That is also a shotgun marriage."

"We had already registered our marriage overseas, so it's not a shotgun marriage." At this moment, Gong Yu pushed open the door and walked in. His sullen expression was terrifying.

Murong Yunxi turned around. He took big strides towards her, held onto her shoulder and smiled, "Silly, why didn't you just tell them? We did get married overseas."

Murong Yunxi froze. She did not expect him to think of such an excuse. What if someone finds out?

Indeed, Xue Shanshan was not buying it at all. She questioned, "You're only saying it, how can we believe you? Stop trying to fool us!"

Gong Yu snorted and took out his phone. He found a picture and showed it to her. "See for yourself."

It was a picture with a church as the background. A hand was holding on to a piece of paper that looked like a certificate. It seemed like a photo of a marriage certificate.

Xue Shanshan zoomed in on the picture and tried very hard to translate the English words on the certificate. Eventually, she still clearly recognized Yun Muxi and Gong Yu's names, and a phrase that roughly meant they were now husband and wife.

Xue Shanshan did not dare to say anything else. She returned the phone to Gong Yu and slipped back into her seat.

Gong Yu smiled as looked at her and asked in a playful tone, "What do you think? Ms. Xue, do you have any more questions?"

Murong Yunxi pretended to be calm as she looked at Xue Shanshan. In actual fact, her heart was already tumbled upside down. What's happening? Marriage certificate? Where did it come from? Did Gong Yu photoshop this?

Seeing the photo that Gong Yu took out, everyone started to switch teams. "Xiao Xi, you and Gong Yu are so loving. It's been so many years and your relations.h.i.+p is still so strong, I'm so jealous."

"Exactly! Xiao Xi, I saw you guys' family picture, it was absolutely beautiful! The three of you are all so good-looking, your daughter is so cute!"

"Right, right! I also want to have such a cute daughter!"

"That depends on the gene, look at Xiao Xi and Gong Yu's genes! I'm afraid you can't catch up with them even in your next lifetime!"

The crowd started saying all these congratulatory statements, yet Murong Yunxi found it boring. She tugged onto Gong Yu's arm and said, "Shall we head back?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Gong Yu caressed the top of her head dotingly. His gaze was filled with gentle love.

The crowd cheered again.

"Everyone, I still have something on tonight, I'll make my leave first. Hope everyone enjoys themselves." After Murong Yunxi finished her sentence, she walked towards the chair to grab her purse.

Gu Yuxuan stood up and said, "Xiao Xi, then we'll go with you."

A cla.s.smate stood up. "Xiao Xi, don't go. It's difficult for us to meet up, why are you leaving so soon?"

"Yea, stay longer."

Many people started to ask them to stay, but the two were firm in their decision and left eventually.

"Xue Shanshan, this is all your fault! This is all because of Lu Yuxin and your tricks! Otherwise, Yun Muxi and Gu Yuxuan would not have left so early," one cla.s.smate glared at Xue Shanshan and accused her.

"By the way, where's Lu Yuxin? Just now she chased after Gong Yu, but now that he's back, where is she?"

"Could she have left too?"

"Possible. Perhaps she was turned down by Gong Yu and felt too embarra.s.sed and left secretly."

"Aiya, Xiao Xi and Gong Yu are indeed quite the match. And they are so loving too. Look at how Gong Yu dotes on her, he treats her like a princess."

Everyone soon fell into a heated discussion and everything said was directed at the couple. The deserted Xue Shanshan who sat at a side felt like she was sitting on a needle carpet; it was extremely uncomfortable.

After exiting the hotel, Murong Yunxi looked at Gong Yu in surprise. "Gong Yu, what's up with the picture? Did you get someone to photoshop it in advance?"

"No, it is real though." Gong Yu replied calmly and casually raised his hand to stop a taxi.

Murong Xu also stopped one. Gu Yuxuan turned and said to Murong Yunxi, "Xiao Xi, after we get back to the hotel, let's get something to eat together. I didn't eat anything just now, I'm famished."

"Okay!" Murong Yunxi lowered her head and got on the taxi.

After the car started driving, Murong Yunxi continued, "What was that exactly? Why don't I remember going to America with you to get married?"

"Your brother arranged this. He got someone to prepare it and send it to me. He told me I might need it in the future, so I saved it. I didn't expect to really use it."

"My brother? Murong Ye? Oh my G.o.d, this is too shocking. Is he a G.o.d? He can predict the future and prepare it in advance?"

"Yes, big brother does indeed think about the big picture. And he dotes on you a lot, he prioritizes anything related to you, and he always thinks for you. He is a good brother."

"Wow wow wow...your mouth is so sweet, did he feed you honey?"

Gong Yu smiled lightly and did not say anything. He gently caressed her head.

Upon reaching the hotel, when the four of them walked in the lobby, a crowd of people started surrounding them.

Du Rui stood in the center and glared coldly at Gong Yu.

Gong Yu frowned slightly and pulled Murong Yunxi behind him. There was a spine-chilling glare in his eyes.

Murong Xu also pulled Gu Yuxuan behind him. He glanced at Gong Yu, "What's this situation?"

The bruises from the day before were still evident on Du Rui's cheeks and corners of his mouth. His was smiling sinisterly and rested one elbow on another man's shoulders. He was acting like a gangster.

"Gong Yu, you're in S City and yet you still dare to hit me? You didn't even bother to find out my position here!"

"I already hit you, what else should I be scared of?"

"f.u.c.k, you're d.a.m.n arrogant. Today, I'll make you regret what you did yesterday."

"Haha, I've never regretted anything in my whole life. I am actually interested to find out how you'll make me regret."

"Brothers, go! Teach this dude a lesson, for not knowing how high the sky is!"

After he gave his orders, the people around him started surrounding Gong Yu and attacking him. Gong Yu hid Murong Yunxi behind his back and blocked off the incoming attacks.

Murong Xu rushed forward to help him. The two men hid the girls behind them and fought together.

Murong Yunxi saw two rows of umbrellas hanging on the umbrella stand by the entrance. She went forward and grabbed two of them. She threw one towards Gu Yuxuan. "Xuanxuan, catch."

Murong Yunxi then stayed behind Gong Yu's back and attacked with the umbrella when she saw the opportunity. Once she saw a man beside her coming closer, she immediately hit him with the umbrella. The man did not expect her to attack and suffered a huge blow on his head. Murong Yunxi had used all of her strength, so it was a painful attack. The man's head was injured. While there were no blood, he still felt dizzy from the hit.

Murong Yunxi took the chance and hit him again, this time on the neck. It was yet another painful blow. The man was triggered immediately. He did not care if she was a woman and ran towards her swiftly.

These people were targeting Gong Yu only and were not going to hurt others. Murong Xu only became their target because he offered to help. As for the two girls, they did not intend to hit them. But now that Murong Yunxi had started it herself and triggered the man, he could not care anymore whether she was a female or not. He ran towards her directly.

At this moment, Gong Yu was being surrounded and attacked by a few people. He did not see what was happening behind him. Gu Yuxuan saw the man running towards Murong Yunxi. She had no time for other considerations and immediately ran towards her.

Murong Yunxi started hitting the man after aiming for his head. On the other hand, Gu Yuxuan did not have any tactic, she started hitting the man randomly with the umbrella given to her.

While Gu Yuxuan's attack was nothing to him, it caused him to be fl.u.s.tered and lose his defense. Murong Yunxi took advantage of it and started bas.h.i.+ng him with her umbrella.

The umbrella was soon bent and Murong Yunxi's attack became weak. The man saw what was happening and held onto one end of the umbrella and pulled it towards him. Murong Yunxi naturally fell into his embrace.

"Haha, little beauty, I didn't expect you to be so G.o.d-d.a.m.n hot! I'll let you hit me!"

Yun Muxi fell into the man's embrace. She was unusually disgusted by his touch. She stepped onto his feet harshly and her heels stabbed mercilessly into his feet. A heart-wrenching pain came from his toes and he raised his hand to slap her. She was unable to fight back. Gu Yuxuan slammed her umbrella onto the arm. But because she was too rash in her action, while she did hit him on the arm and stopped him from slapping her, the umbrella hit Murong Yunxi on the forehead as well.

Gu Yuxuan immediately looked towards Murong Yunxi in shock, "Sorry, sorry, Xiao Xi, I didn't mean to!"

Murong Yunxi glared at her, "What a lousy teammate!"

After getting hold of Murong Yunxi, the man was about to step backward. Gu Yuxuan wanted to help, but because of the mistake just now, she did not dare to act rashly now. She could only stand there and feel worried.

Murong Yunxi was restrained in the man's embrace. He was too strong for her and she was unable to fight back. Seeing Gu Yuxuan just standing there and watching, Murong Yunxi immediately yelled, "Xuanxuan, help me to hit him!"

Gu Yuxuan was fl.u.s.tered, "I...I'm worried that I'll hurt you again."

Gong Yu finally saw the situation beside him. Just as he was about to go towards them, he received a kick from someone and blocked from his path.
