Chapter 302: Chapter 220: Did You Ever Like Me Before? _4

-

"To be honest, is that guy your old flame?"

On the way, Gu Zhiyi’s gossiping nature kicked in.

She curved her lips, "The way that man looks at you is quite special, and the way you look at him is even more so."

As she steered the wheel, she glanced at the driving recorder’s screen, "Hold tight, we’ll arrive in 20 minutes. I’m taking you to meet a friend of mine."

Tang Xi rubbed her temples, "How can you tell his look is any different? He’s cold to everyone, as if they all owe him money."

"Really, he’s your old flame?" Gu Zhiyi’s eyes widened with shock, "Not bad, Tang Xiaoxi, snagging such a top-notch man, tsk tsk tsk, but with your looks, you’re a match for him. Men love women like you, with a gentle, elegant, and beautiful temperament."

Saying this, Gu Zhiyi raised her hand and fiddled with her sunglasses on her face.

The styles of Tang Xi and Gu Zhiyi were quite different.

One was gentle, beautiful, and graceful; the other was enchanting, bright, and sultry.

Truly two extreme styles.

Tang Xi’s voice was somewhat hoarse; she rolled down the car window, let the wind blow on her, and watched the two kids playing happily in the backseat through the rearview mirror. She leaned closer to Gu Zhiyi and lowered her voice, "He’s my ex-husband."

Gu Zhiyi blinked, "What??"

She knew Tang Xi wanted to avoid Tangtang and also lowered her voice, "That man, he looks like he’s not of simple status."

Tang Xi looked forward, eyeing the approaching red light, reminding Gu Zhiyi to slow down and brake. Then, she gave a self-deprecating smile, "His name is Fu Tingzhou, you must have heard of him."

More than just heard of him.

Gu Zhiyi was simply shocked.

The name Fu Tingzhou was incredibly well-known.

The king of North City’s business world, now coming to North Island, is here to discuss a partnership with the Gao Family.

He also has a bit of cooperation with the Lu Family.

She heard Lu Shili mention his name before.

Gu Zhiyi’s understanding of Tang Xi was that she was pretty, had a tender personality with occasional stubbornness, and was a single, divorced mother of a daughter. She got along with her personality, so she was willing to be friends with her.

But she never expected that Tang Xi was Fu Tingzhou’s ex-wife.

It took her a long while to process it.

"You even divorced Fu Tingzhou, Tang Xi, you deserve to live like this..." Gu Zhiyi said, taking a glance at the slightly yellowed cuffs of Tang Xi’s washed white shirt.

She knew Tang Xi’s finances were tight, though not to extremes, but not ample either.

This salary could only just support her and her daughter.

How many women dream of getting close to Fu Tingzhou, Gu Zhiyi was someone with a tough exterior but a soft heart; she was straightforward and did not hide her feelings, feeling a bit heartbroken for Tang Xi, hence she said that.

Tang Xi gave a light smile, "Yeah, what’s done is done, had I known, I would have asked for a larger share of the property."

Her smile was self-mocking and somewhat bitter.

Gu Zhiyi, "That’s a reminder for me, if I ever divorce Lu Shili, I can’t leave empty-handed."

Tang Xi raised an eyebrow, "That’s right, whenever you divorce, I’ll treat you to a meal, to celebrate your singlehood."

Gu Zhiyi laughed heartily, "I love this attitude of yours, good, if I get divorced, I’ll definitely splurge on your dime, I want to feast to celebrate the joy of being single! Staying away from men, away from all misfortunes."

She did not ask Tang Xi why she got divorced, just as Tang Xi did not ask her why she was contemplating it.

It all boils down to men’s perfunctory attitudes, and men having their own loves.

Women, always choosing to compromise again and again in marriage.

She had compromised many times.

She knew Lu Shili liked Lu Qiqi.

But alas, Lu Qiqi was his adopted sister, the Lu Family’s adopted daughter; the old masters of the Lu Family would never allow him to marry Lu Qiqi.

Gu Zhiyi’s ’seizing the opportunity’ became the apple of the old masters’ eyes.

Coming from a scholarly family, although her family was almost bankrupt, the Lu family did not depend on other families to thrive on North Island. In North Island, the Lu’s were already one of the top families.

Gu Zhiyi came from a decent background, no issues with her looks or personality, no bad habits, and she had even donated bone marrow, saving Lu Shili’s life, becoming his life savior.

When she proposed marriage, the two elders of the Lu family were more than happy to agree.

And Lu Qiqi’s car accident was a total accident.

However, such an accident was something Lu Shili could not accept.

He blamed Gu Zhiyi for the injuries Lu Qiqi suffered in the accident and resented her for four years.

Now, his heart’s desire has returned, and it is also time for her to step down.
