Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage-Chapter 370 - 371: Entangled

Chapter 370: Chapter 371: Entangled

Shen Manbing was clearly in a lot of pain and very conflicted.

She didn’t know why.

When Xia Yangyang heard her say these things, she let out a chuckle.

Shen Manbing looked up, her beautiful eyes filled with anger, “You’re not even trying to help me, and you even find time to laugh?”

Xia Yangyang knew that the fact Shen Manbing honestly admitted this situation.

She really had accepted her as one of her own.

Shen Manbing has been in the entertainment industry for many years, although she is a top-tier celebrity, her mind is incredibly pure.

She had always been well-protected by Shen Shichuan.

Ever since the last incident, Shen Manbing only felt guilt toward Xia Yangyang.

And because Xia Yangyang didn’t hold Shen Shichuan legally accountable, she felt grateful.

So now, she had already considered Xia Yangyang as one of her own.

Xia Yangyang chuckled and said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to laugh. But it’s not like it’s a catastrophic situation. You’re not blood-related siblings, both are unmarried, I don’t think it’s a big deal.”

Hearing what Xia Yangyang said, Shen Manbing’s face noticeably changed, “It’s not as simple as you think. On the surface, I might be the beloved daughter of the Shen family, but in reality, they all regard me as a jinx. All these years, only my older brother has been protecting me and because of that, he has shouldered a lot for me. But he is the eldest son and the one valued the most by our grandfather, the heir of the Shen family. I don’t want to ruin his standing in the family and have him scorned by others because of me.”

Xia Yangyang sighed, “Why do both of you have the same thinking?”

Shen Manbing looked up, “What do you mean?”

Xia Yangyang knew she shouldn’t interfere.

However, the relationship between Shen Shichuan and Shen Manbing was as if obscured by a layer of ice.

And she was the only one who could see both sides clearly.

What was destined to happen has already happened.

Xia Yangyang felt there was no point in hiding anything anymore.

Xia Yangyang started, “Actually, Shen Shichuan has always liked you. He didn’t confess to you out of fear of being the target of public criticism, fear of jeopardizing your position in the entertainment industry, fear of you being bullied by everyone, and calculated by the Shen family.”

The color on Shen Manbing’s face had completely changed.

Her eyes were full of disbelief, her heart even seemed to stop, “What did you say, my older brother likes me?”

“Your older brother deeply loves you, so when you were with Gu Qichen, he was in great pain. But his hands were tied by traditional ethics and morals, he has always been a perfect older brother around you. My guess is that yesterday’s incident wasn’t because he got drunk, but because his love for you could no longer be suppressed.”

Mentioning yesterday’s incident, Shen Manbing’s face turned red.

She drank too much last night but the ridiculous thing was, she remembered every detail of what happened then.

She remembered Shen Shichuan’s face, one filled with suppressed pain and indulgence.

She remembered Shen Shichuan kissing every part of her body, as if he was worshipping her.

She remembered him whispering in her ear countless times: “Xiao Bing, I love you, I love you …”

She thought it might just be a fantasy in her mind, everything was a figment of her imagination.

But now that she heard Xia Yangyang say that Shen Shichuan had been in love with her all along.

Then she understands, perhaps everything was real.

That repression, the deep affection, the unbridled destructiveness of the taboo, were all real….
