Chapter 6 Unexpected Arrival
Gu Chao Nan saw he brought Shen Le Yue, his expression improved.
"Injury not healed, why run around."
Xie Yi Heng's voice was calm.
"Injured the hand, not the leg, why can't I run?"
There was tension between them.
And when he said that, his gaze fell on me.
The room fell silent.
No one knew what happened.
Gu Chao Nan blocked me, jaw tight, enduring his temper.
"How did you know we're here?"
From outside came a carefree voice:
"Of course I told him."
"You kid, invited you so many times but couldn't come, got a wife and ditch us old brothers, huh?"
My breath tightened.
One of the few who knew Xie Yi Heng and I were married.
I looked up, met Chen Chen's eyes.
He stumbled in shock.
"Damn! Wen, Wen Yu, how is it you?"
Gu Chao Nan turned, his eyes sharp and pressing.
"You know her?"
Chen Chen realized the situation was wrong.
Stammered, trying to cover.
"Just, met a few times, surprised, haha..."
Gu Chao Nan's temple veins throbbed, his body tensed.
Someone tried to step forward to mediate.
Unexpectedly, he didn't pursue.
"Drank too much today, inconvenient for next round, I'll go home with Wen Yu first."
I stood and took his extended hand.
Felt the force, knew how much he endured.
I calmly gave the crowd an apologetic smile.
"Sorry, next time."
Xie Yi Heng shifted his gaze from our clasped hands.
As if he had drunk some wine, even his eyes reddened.
"She is my Ex Wife."
