Chapter 571: Chapter 3: That Was My Ex-Wife

Chi Yu kept his mouth shut.

Now Gu Yuan’s anger had dissipated for the most part, partly due to Chi Yu’s attitude of admitting fault, and also because she realized she was being somewhat unreasonable. But when she’s being unreasonable, she herself doesn’t realize it at all.

"What were you thinking when you scolded me just now?" She leisurely looked at Chi Yu and asked.

Chi Yu didn’t even need to think, he replied, "Good scolding!"

Gu Yuan: "..." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Why was it a bit funny?

She handed Suisui to him, and Chi Yu immediately reached out to take her. Suisui didn’t cling to Gu Yuan, and once she was in Chi Yu’s arms, she obediently snuggled against him.

Chi Yu asked, "Should we give Suisui a bath and change her clothes now?"

"No, let’s change her at night," a mother always knows how energetic her child can be, "otherwise, she’ll get dirty again, and the bath would be for nothing."

Chi Yu nodded, "Yuanyuan’s right."

...

The scene where Gu Yuan lost her temper at Chi Yu was witnessed by Lin Shi, who was hiding not far away.

Even the photographer was scared away.

It shows how formidable President Gu is!

Recalling the scene where Chi Yu was being scolded, with his head almost buried in the ground, facing Gu Yuan’s fury but not daring to say a word, Lin Shi was not only surprised but also clicked his tongue repeatedly, "Seems like being a pretty boy isn’t all that easy after all..."

It was clear that Chi Yu’s days weren’t easy.

Although he enjoyed the various incredible resources President Gu casually tossed his way.

But once President Gu was unhappy, he had to endure the scolding, and no matter how harsh it was, he couldn’t talk back, he had to withstand all kinds of anger. Not only had to appease President Gu, but also look after President Gu’s daughter well.

Lin Shi couldn’t help but sigh, "... Thank goodness I don’t look at my future with such intensity."

Otherwise, I’d end up like Chi Yu.

Lin Shi turned around, ready to head back to the farmhouse, but as soon as he turned, he saw the camera pointed directly at him, startling Lin Shi, "Damn, didn’t I shake you off? How did you find me?"

"It was me." The photographer stuck his head out from behind.

Lin Shi: "..."

He had thought he had lost his own photographer before coming over, shouldn’t have found him so quickly.

Turns out it was Chi Yu’s photographer.

"Aren’t you afraid of President Gu?" Lin Shi asked.

Photographer: "It’s okay, I record what I record, they edit what they edit, we divide up the work, can’t blame me if something goes wrong."

Lin Shi was rendered speechless but then chuckled, "Makes sense."

Back at the farmhouse.

Yao Tao saw Gu Yuan, put down what she was busy with instantly, walked over, and said, "I thought you wouldn’t come today."

Gu Yuan smiled and said, "I heard you picked a lot of mushrooms today, came to try something fresh."

"Yeah, they were all picked during the show," Yao Tao saw Chi Yu holding Suisui behind Gu Yuan, then continued, "I was just about to tell you there are lots of fresh mushrooms tonight, for you to come and try."

She headed inside with Gu Yuan.

Chi Yu followed behind, as they went upstairs, Lin Shi, who was peeking out from behind a pillar, grabbed Chi Yu: "Hey, Brother Yu, wait a moment."

Chi Yu didn’t look too good, Lin Shi thought it was related to being scolded by President Gu earlier, understandably, which big man would feel good being scolded by a woman like that?

Probably quite suffocated now.

Being a man himself, Lin Shi kindly planned to comfort Chi Yu: "Actually, you’re quite excellent, no need to always hold yourself back."

Chi Yu: ?

"Did you take the wrong medicine, praising me?"

"..."

Lin Shi thought Chi Yu was playing dumb with him, and said, "I saw it just now."

Chi Yu: "Saw what?"

Lin Shi: "Saw you being scolded by President Gu."

Chi Yu: "..." What bad luck being seen by this guy.

Thinking that Chi Yu was still ready to go up, Lin Shi pulled Chi Yu off towards the yard.

The tabby cat was snoozing by the pool, fish were swimming at the bottom without coming up, the grape leaves on the vines were growing lush, and in another month or so, they’ll bear fruit.

Chi Yu put Suisui down.

Suisui said she wanted to see the tabby cat, went over and woke it up, and they played together.

Once seated, Lin Shi remarked, "Brother Yu, your life is pretty stifling, isn’t it."

Chi Yu chuckled softly, "It is pretty stifling."

"Isn’t it," Lin Shi, though young, was now using a wise tone to advise Chi Yu, "You’re already excellent, you don’t have to be excellent all the time."

Chi Yu: ?

Lin Shi: "I mean, stop taking shit."

Chi Yu: "I’m not taking shit, thanks."

"Don’t fake it, Brother Yu, I saw it all, honestly there’s no shame in it, in the entertainment industry this is quite normal." Lin Shi had an expression of seeing through things.

Chi Yu couldn’t be bothered to deal with him.

Lin Shi pressed on, "See, your relationship with President Gu can’t be exposed..."

His words were interrupted, Chi Yu didn’t want to bother with him, but still responded to the blatant remark, "Do you know what kind of relationship we have?"

"Of course," Lin Shi said, "You’re kept, you’re a third party."

"Damn!"

Smack-

A slap landed on the back of Lin Shi’s head.

Chi Yu withdrew his hand.

Lin Shi yelped from the pain, glaring at Chi Yu with resentment, "I know my truth touched your sore spot, I’m just advising you to turn back, a man can be hurt but doesn’t need to take shit, see how considerate I am, and you hit me?!"

"I hit you because you deserved it." Chi Yu looked displeased, "You call this looking out for me? You’re blocking my path to remarry."

"Remarry... oh damn, what remarry?" Lin Shi was just grimacing with pain, but now looked stunned, "What remarry? With whom?"

Chi Yu glared at Lin Shi knowingly, with one truth that shocked Lin Shi, akin to thunder from a clear sky——

"That’s my ex-wife."
