After Rebirth, My Fiancé Helps Me Avenge the Wicked Scum-Chapter 921 - 920: Who Do You Think You Are?

Chapter 920: What Do You Amount To?

When Nan Mingzhu saw the god-like handsome Gu Dongxing, her heart started pounding: Such an outstanding man is about to belong to me.

But upon seeing Jiang Mengyu, as beautiful as a heavenly immortal, a pang of pain as if bitten by insects pierced her heart; jealousy was devouring her heart: What right does she have to earn Brother Gu’s love?

She instinctively called out, "Brother Gu!"

Gu Dongxing’s cold gaze fixed on her: Anyone could see that he was furious!

The woman he had searched for through countless reincarnations was being so maligned by this woman; she deserved to die!

In the next moment, his large hand clamped around Nan Mingzhu’s neck, lifting her off the ground with one hand.

And Nan Mingzhu could not even struggle, her wide eyes reflecting deep fear—a Level Six Martial Artist like her couldn’t even move a muscle when faced with him.

Her gaze turned to the seated Gu Family elders, and she uttered a weak cry, "Save—me—"

The oldest elder, around seventy, quickly shouted, "Dongxing, what are you doing? She is the Eldest Miss of the Nan Family, let her go!"

Two other elders in their sixties also hurriedly shouted, "Dongxing, put her down, we can talk this out." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Yes, yes, yes, put her down first, so we can talk properly."

The elders wanted to step forward to rescue Nan Mingzhu but found they couldn’t even get close to the two of them.

Gu Dongxing completely ignored the elders, continuing to hold up Nan Mingzhu while his words were laced with ice:

"Clearly, I needed to fake-engage with Xiao Meng for a mission, asking her to pretend to be my fiancée for cover, but to hear you say it, Xiao Meng shamelessly stayed in my house, forcing me to take responsibility?"

The Gu Family immediately understood it was for work; it wasn’t a big deal. Even before liberation, undercover agents posed as couples; pretending to be engaged is nothing.

"Clearly, it was me asking Xiao Meng to pretend to be my fiancée to block some unwanted admirers, yet in your words, it turned into her monopolizing me, not allowing me to speak to other women?"

So, it was about blocking unwanted admirers; Dongxing didn’t like those women and didn’t want to offend them either, so having someone to fend them off was indeed much better.

"And about Ye Rushui from the Ye Family, do you know who she is? A married woman pretending to be a naive damsel to act as my girlfriend, why keep her around?

As for Ye Qing, she was just a childhood playmate when I was five or six; I heard she met the wrong people, suffered at her husband’s hands, so I saved her. She originally had only three to five years to live, but it was Xiao Meng who treated her. Now that she’s well, why should she stay if she’s not going back?"

The Gu Family was even more perplexed; the Ye Family’s women were married. Helping once was enough; keeping them was naturally not right, so chasing them away was normal.

"As for Cheng Jiuhe, he is a brother I can trust with my back. From pretending to be fiancés, Xiao Meng and I fell in love genuinely and have promised each other for life; he has always been our brother.

Later, when Xiao Meng went to Beijing for work, I let Jiu He take care of her. To make it convenient, they recognized each other as siblings, and their relationship has always been purely that of brother and sister. How did it become a cause for concern in your eyes?

Moreover, as her fiancé, I’m not worried, so why are you, an outsider, worrying for me? What do you amount to?"
