ow rosewood box, with intricate carvings that were lifelike. It was an antique over a hundred years old.He knew his grandfather liked old items, so he had specially purchased it from an overseas aucti..."Century Grand Hotel." Su Ke Xin answered instinctively, but after finishing her sentence, she paused, looking at Gu Chi, "What are you asking this for"

"It's nothing." Gu Chi looked indifferent. "Haven't you ever thought about who hurt you in the first place"

Drugged, taken to a hotel room, and then the school was notified publicly about it all—it's clear someone deliberately framed me.

"I'm not sure, I also investigated. But nothing came up." Su Keqin said, but then suddenly realized something and looked at Gu Chi, "Gu Chi, do you believe me"

Gu Chi turned his head and saw Su Ke Xin still leaning against his shoulder, there was a hint of intimacy in it. This made him feel inexplicably good. He whispered, "You are my wife, why wouldn't I trust you"

Such a simple sentence, said so rightly, felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, pressing down heavily on Su Ke Xin's heart.

He trusted her.

She had so many years of feelings with Gu Yichan, but he never believed her. Yet, Gu Chi said he believed her.

"Then..." Su Ke Xin's voice trembled slightly, "You dislike me then"

Two years ago, it was a thorn in Su Kexin's heart. She had once despaired and thought that she would never get married in her life.

"No." Gu Chi frowned slightly. "This isn't your fault, why would you blame yourself"

Instead, the ones who are truly wrong should be held accountable.

He left the rest of the sentence unspoken, but in his heart, he silently made a decision.

After Su KeXin finished telling these things, the whole person was exhausted and went to rest directly.

This evening, Gu Chi was by her side, and Su Ke Xin fell asleep faster than she had in the past few days.

Looking at Su Ke Xin on the bed, she was still frowning even in her sleep. Gu Chi couldn't help but stand by the bed and gently rub away the wrinkles between her brows.

Hearing Su Kexin's steady breathing, Gu Chi took out his phone and dialed Yang Zuo's number.

"Hey, Yang Zo," he whispered, afraid to wake Su Ke Xin, "Go and investigate Su Ke Xin's affairs two years ago thoroughly."

After hanging up the phone, she recalled Su Ke Xin's words just now and frowned slightly.

Century Hotel

Why did he feel that the name of the hotel sounded familiar

The next morning, Su Ke Xin and Gu Chi had breakfast in the restaurant. Gu Chi looked at her and suddenly asked, "How did you sleep last night"

"Not bad." Su Kexin looked up, "Why ask that"

"I'm afraid that if I'm by your side, you'll be scared and won't sleep well." Gu Chi took a sip of coffee, his expression indifferent, "If you need to, I can move to the guest room."

Su KeXin was stunned for a moment before she reacted, understanding that Gu Chi was referring to what happened that night. Her face flushed instantly as she spoke, "We are husband and wife anyway, it's only natural that we live together."

Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin, "That night, didn't you blame me"

He still remembers that night, the look of fear on Su Kexin's face as he approached her. That resistance made him very uncomfortable.

Su Ke Xin looked at Gu Chi awkwardly, "It's alright, your actions are understandable."

"A valid reason" Gu Chi suddenly raised an eyebrow. "What reason"

“Huh” Su Ke Xin didn’t expect Gu Chi to follow up on this, she became even more embarrassed all of a sudden. But under Gu Chi’s gaze, she still mustered her courage and said, “Because that night, I made you lose face and even said things about Gu Yihan... It’s normal for you to be angry, after all, I am your wife.”

Gu Chi's eyebrows rose even higher.

Although Su Kexin's words were vague, he still understood them.

Su Keqin thought, was it because of possessiveness that he did those things to her that night

Gu Chi suddenly couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"What's so funny" Su Keqin asked, a little embarrassed, thinking she might have said something wrong.

Gu Chi looked at Su Keqin, thoughtful.

He was never one to shy away from acknowledging his feelings. Whether it was his prior affection for Su Ke Xin or the jealousy he felt upon learning of Gu Yi Han's involvement, both situations made him realize something —chen's eyes flashed a fierce cold light, and he tightened his grip on Lin Mo'mo's hand: "I didn't find out who did it."Gu Yichen paused for a moment, then said, "They sent assassins disguised as anest...
