Huo Sicheng brought Gu Qingcheng’s small hand to his lips and gently kissed it.

“I am not surprised by these irrelevant people,” he said while placing Gu

Qingcheng’s hand over his heart, “I only care about you.”

Gu Qingcheng was startled by Huo Sicheng’s gesture, her gaze falling on her hand over his heart.

His warm body temperature permeated through the palm of her hand, bringing her a sense of warmth.

The steady beating of his heart under her hand seemed to express his care and affection for her with every beat.

Her heart, uncontrollably, began to race, and she playfully admonished, “I was telling you about Chu He, and here you are flirting with me.”

Huo Sicheng’s eyes, bright and intense, looked earnestly at Gu Qingcheng. “I am not flirting with you, I am seriously telling you that I care about you, deeply.”

Gu Qingcheng’s cheeks flushed with shyness.

Huo Sicheng was particularly sweet-talking today.

“Alright, I know you care about me,” she said, looking at Huo Sicheng coquettishly and flirtatiously, then asked, “Are you really not the slightest bit surprised about Chu He and Qin Chong?”

Huo Sicheng shook his head. “I’ve known for a long time,” he told Gu Qingcheng.

“Ah…” Gu Qingcheng was taken aback, then pouted, “And you still have the nerve to say you’re not surprised by irrelevant people. It turns out you already knew about Chu He and Qin Chong’s affair.”

“Chu He and Qin Chong are indeed irrelevant to me, so their actions do not surprise me,” Huo Sicheng explained to the petulant Gu Qingcheng, “Only you can move my heart.”

Gu Qingcheng locked eyes with Huo Sicheng, seeing deep affection for her in his gaze, causing her heart to beat faster for him.

She was at a loss for words today, her usual temper mellowing under his gentleness.

She shyly chuckled, “You’re particularly sweet-talking today, sweetening my heart.”

Huo Sicheng gazed tenderly at Gu Qingcheng, his arm reaching out to envelop her in his embrace.

His soft kisses fell on her black hair, and with a gentle voice filled with intention, he said, “I hope even more to enter your heart.”

Leaning in Huo Sicheng’s arms, Gu Qingcheng felt the warmth of his voice and tenderly responded, “You’ve already entered my heart, you just don’t realize it.”

Huo Sicheng’s eyes flickered, his slender fingers gently pinching Gu

Qingcheng’s chin, making her look at him.

“I mean being the only one in your heart.”

Gu Qingcheng saw expectation in Huo Sicheng’s eyes. She was about to tell him that he had always been the only one in her heart.

But the words stopped at her lips. Her heart and soul had always belonged to Huo Sicheng alone, but it wasn’t the same for him, he had Miss Li.

Thinking of Miss Li made her heart ache, dampening the fluttering feelings she had for him.

Huo Sicheng longed to hear from Gu Qingcheng that he was the only one for her.

But he was disappointed, as Gu Qingcheng did not voice those words, even lowering her gaze, making it impossible for him to discern her thoughts.

Sigh.

He desired her undivided affection, but she still couldn’t give it to him, still concerned about Qi Shaoze.

“Your hatred for Chu He runs deep, yet you never bothered to learn more about her background,” he said, breaking the awkward silence and changing the topic. “If you had investigated Chu He, you would know that she didn’t just have an affair with Qin Chong, but with many men. It’s just that she ultimately chose to marry Gu Tianhao.”

Gu Qingcheng, pondering how to respond to Huo Sicheng, looked up at him as he suddenly spoke.

“I did look into Chu He, and her background seemed ordinary, nothing worth digging into. But I never knew about her affairs with many men,” she expressed her surprise, “How do you know all this? Do you know everything about Chu He?”

“You only know what Chu He allowed you to see—her ordinary family background,” Huo Sicheng gently gazed at Gu Qingcheng, “Her family is both ordinary and not.”

“Really?” Gu Qingcheng asked with curiosity, “Tell me more.”

“Alright, I will,” Huo Sicheng indulgently looked at Gu Qingcheng, “Actually, it’s not much. Chu He always told everyone that her parents died early, but in reality, they live far away in the mountains. She built a villa for her parents who farm and raise chickens and ducks. Chu He sends them twenty thousand yuan every month, but her parents have never spent it. They hardly ever contact her, she’s like a daughter they never had.

“Chu He dropped out of school at fourteen and entered society, first working as a shampoo girl, then in a KTV, and finally in a club where she became the top hostess. She met Qin Chong there, who paid a million yuan to keep her for a month before meeting Gu Tianhao. After quitting the club, she devoted herself to Gu Tianhao and eventually married him to become Mrs. Gu.”

Listening to Huo Sicheng’s description of Chu He, Gu Qingcheng realized how cold-hearted that woman was, living in luxury while her elderly parents lived in the mountains.

But her coldness wasn’t surprising, else she couldn’t have married into a wealthy family. Perhaps Chu He cut off contact with her parents fearing her misdeeds would harm them.

Among the ladies of Jiang City’s elite, only Chu He had the most ordinary background yet remained favored by Gu Tianhao for many years, a puzzle that had long baffled her.

Now Huo Sicheng’s words made it clear – Chu He, during her time at the club, had mastered the art of pleasing men, knowing their desires like the back of her hand.

No wonder Chu He was so obedient to Gu Tianhao; she knew that a domineering man like him preferred submissive women.

Unlike her, who would never submit to anyone, not even Huo Sicheng, who had saved her life in their past life. She wouldn’t hesitate to fight back even against him.

“Chu He’s life story is indeed rich,” she commented, “She must have spent a lot to hide her past, right?”

“Yes,” Huo Sicheng agreed, “After leaving the club, she spent a lot to erase her tracks. Many still know her past, but out of respect for her status as Mrs. Gu, no one mentions it anymore.”

“No wonder she and Qin Chong are so close. He was her first sponsor,” Gu Qingcheng raised an eyebrow, “It seems Gu Tianhao is completely unaware of this, otherwise, knowing Qin Chong was Chu He’s former sponsor, he certainly wouldn’t have married her.”

“Right,” Huo Sicheng continued, “Chu He was only after money. She enjoyed a luxurious life during her time at the club, having several sponsors. She knew she was living off her youth, so she had to find a long-term…”

“Meal ticket,” Gu Qingcheng finished for him, “Gu Tianhao was her long-term meal ticket, and an oblivious cuckold.”

Huo Sicheng shook his head, “No.”

“No?” Gu Qingcheng looked at him in surprise, “What do you mean? Isn’t Gu

Tianhao Chu He’s long-term meal ticket?”
