CHAPTER 114: CHAPTER 114 STOP ACTING LIKE A LOVING COUPLE IN FRONT OF ME

Ji Wei’s expression remained calm and composed. When she looked at Jin Xuan’er, a glimmer of coldness surfaced in her clear and bright eyes: "Whether or not you remember has nothing to do with you. Move aside!"

Jin Xuan’er was momentarily intimidated by her aura, but quickly sneered and stared at Ji Wei: "Of course it has nothing to do with me. But, don’t you think you should consider Mr. Gu’s feelings beside you?"

Seeing Ji Wei’s face turn cold and stern, Jin Xuan’er hurriedly added, "I heard from Huo Yan that your relationship suddenly came to an unresolved end, and that he hasn’t agreed to break up with you..."

"My personal affairs—do I owe an explanation to an outsider like you? You’re so concerned about Huo Yan, do you have something going on with him?"

Faced with Jin Xuan’er’s aggressive questioning, Ji Wei showed no sign of unease or panic. Instead, she grew even calmer.

Because she knew Jin Xuan’er had suffered a loss earlier at her expense and was deliberately trying to provoke tension between her and Gu Moqian.

Jin Xuan’er’s voice suddenly sharpened: "What nonsense are you spouting! Huo Yan and I are just friends. How could we possibly—"

"Enough of this noise!"

Gu Moqian’s icy tone abruptly interjected, not loud, but laced with authority. Jin Xuan’er opened her mouth but didn’t dare utter another word.

"Ji Wei is my wife—the only woman I will ever love in this life. If you attempt to sow discord again, I doubt you’ll want to remain in Rongcheng."

Though Gu Moqian had uttered plenty of sweet words before, this was the first time he said them openly in someone else’s presence. Ji Wei turned her head to the man beside her, his mature and well-defined face seemingly luminous, radiating warmth and resolute strength through his interlocked fingers with hers. It felt as if she’d found her anchor.

Jin Xuan’er stared blankly at Gu Moqian’s cold-as-ice expression yet refused to accept the reality before her.

She stubbornly believed that Ji Wei married Gu Moqian purely out of a loveless commercial arrangement. It was a union set in place by their elders with neither party willing participants.

"Miss Ji, you’re nothing more than a titular wife to Mr. Gu. Spare me the act of feigned affection; I won’t buy it," Jin Xuan’er said after pausing, her tone dripping with sourness.

Ji Wei was completely speechless at Jin Xuan’er’s senseless pestering: "Acting? It seems you’ve been immersed in your profession for too long, deluding yourself into believing you’re an actor lost in the role?"

Jin Xuan’er’s eyes instantly widened as if spitting fire: "Who are you calling an actor! You—"

Her furious voice was abruptly cut off by Gu Moqian: "Say one more word, and you’re out of the entertainment industry!"

Gu Moqian’s threat was overpowering. Jin Xuan’er’s face turned pale, and she truly couldn’t muster another sound, forced to glare bitterly at the two before stomping away.

They returned to Xingyao Entertainment.

Not far away, Ye Cheng stood with arms crossed, leaning lazily against the office doorframe. As he spotted them walking back, he spoke up: "Old Mo, I need to discuss something with you."

Without waiting for a reply, Ye Cheng opened the door and walked in.

"Take a seat for a moment; I’ll be back soon," Gu Moqian said warmly, his broad palm gently patting the back of Ji Wei’s hand.

"Okay," Ji Wei nodded in agreement.

Inside the office.

Ye Cheng stood in front of his desk. Though he heard footsteps at the door, his eyes didn’t leave the computer screen. He said indifferent words: "Come over and take a look."

Ye Cheng held his mouse in hand and clicked on an email within the computer.

Gu Moqian raised an eyebrow slightly and walked over as directed.

"I received this email an hour ago. Can you guess what’s inside?" Ye Cheng lifted his head to glance at Gu Moqian beside him and spoke.
