CHAPTER 684: CHAPTER 684: DEEPLY ROOTED LOVE (129)

Long Yubei snorted, "Every circle has its rats, and that’s related to each person’s character. Some people just love to play around. There’s a saying that goes, ’Birds of a feather flock together.’ Those scumbag second-generation rich kids who love to mess with women just like to hang out with that kind of crowd. Like attracts like. Moreover, let me tell you, often those short, ugly, poor guys without any charm tend to be plentiful because they can’t gain a sense of achievement through their careers and can only do so by conquering women. Yet some women still fail to see the truth. Some can tell he’s scum at first glance—it’s practically written on their foreheads. After all, hanging out with a bunch of swine and cur buddies, what good can they be?"

Gu Lili clapped her hands, "I’m actually at a loss for words."

Long Yubei winked at her with a proud smile, "Actually, even though some of the things you said earlier did bother me a bit, I still understand you. You’re definitely not a fickle woman. If you were, you wouldn’t still be by my side now."

"I’m just seeking your protection for myself and the child, don’t overthink it."

"I know whether I’m overthinking or not, dumbass."

Gu Lili fumed, "Who are you calling a dumbass?"

"I’m calling you one. What’s wrong, can’t handle it? If you can’t, come and fight me one on one."

"Can’t be bothered with you."

"..."

At this time, Gu Lili’s phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and then placed the phone aside, letting it ring.

"Why not answer it?"

"It’s from City B."

Long Yubei nodded in understanding, "Right, best not to answer it."

She thought by not answering that they would get the hint, but the phone kept ringing non-stop. She ended up blocking the number.

Peace at last.

However, today’s ignored call turned into an uninvited visit in the evening.

The couple came together.

At this time, right after having dinner, Gu Lili was holding Listen and watching the news.

Tang Qingli came to report.

"Don’t see them."

"Young Madam, that doesn’t seem appropriate. They are our country’s President and First Lady. To refuse to meet them like this..."

Gu Lili spoke nonchalantly, "It doesn’t matter. Just tell them I have nothing to say, it’s best for everyone to live their own lives without bothering each other."

Tang Qingli was really trembling as he spoke because the visitors’ statuses were particularly significant.

But he still conveyed Gu Lili’s response as she had said.

"Your Excellency, Madam, our Young Madam says... she has nothing to say, and suggests that everyone better live their own lives without bothering each other."

"She really puts on quite the show!" Yu Wen was truly angered, "We came here personally and she still wouldn’t meet us."

Tang Qingli tried to ease the situation, "Madam might not be aware, but our Young Madam has always been like this. She refuses to see anyone she doesn’t wish to see, no matter who it is."

"Is Long Yubei here?"

"Our young master is not in," Tang Qingli replied.

Seeing Yu Wen was about to say something else, Yin Qi stopped her. He then took out a piece of paper and pen, wrote a few words, and handed it to Tang Qingli, "Please trouble you to give this to your Young Madam."

Tang Qingli received it with both hands, promptly saying, "Of course."

The couple got in their car and left.

As the car started, Yu Wen could no longer hold back her outrage, "We condescend to come here to see her, and she dares not to see us."

"It’s not her fault." Yin Qi’s deep voice carried a hint of vicissitudes, "We are the ones who wronged her; it’s only natural that she wouldn’t want to see us."

"Forget it," Yu Wen declared, "This matter ends here. My patience has been exhausted. I can’t stoop any lower to seek her out again."
