Zhou Xiaoya shook her head and said firmly:

"I only hate him, not love him."

Xu Huaiyu raised a mocking smile and asked:

"is it?"

Zhou Xiaoya wiped away the tears from her eyes, hatred burning in her eyes, and her tone became more severe:

"I have done what you said. What else do you want me to do next?"

"No rush, we have to cast a net to catch the big fish." This time, he wanted to hit the target with one blow, completely destroy Gu Huaijin, and make him wander the streets like a stray dog.

In the darkness of the night, a Maybach was speeding on the road. The shadows of cars passing by outside the window and the intricate light and shadows were reflected on Jin Mingzhu's face. She looked at Gu Huaijin who was immersed in the darkness, and slowly closed her eyes weakly.

All the way back to Gu's house, Gu Huaijin saw that she was always silent, and asked in a gentle voice:

"What's wrong, Xianxian? What happened?" Gu Huaijin looked at her haggard face and reached out to tuck the loose hair on her forehead behind her head.

Jin Mingzhu just stared into his eyes and asked word by word:

"Gu Huaijin, why did you like me in the first place?"

Gu Huaijin paused while stroking her finger bones and said:

"There's no reason. I just liked it when I saw it."

Gu Huaijin's eyes were deep black, and Jin Mingzhu did not notice anything unusual.

"Oh," she replied, and suddenly asked casually:

"So what do you like about Zhou Xiaoya?"

Gu Huaijin was silent for a moment, observing Jin Mingzhu's expression. She frowned, as if something was on her mind.

"Don't mention her, let's go to bed."

"I'll run you some water, so you can take a bath and have a good sleep."

He stood up and prepared to leave. Jin Mingzhu raised her hand and held his hand, with tears in her eyes, and asked loudly:

"Gu Huaijin, you looked at me with a biased look at me, was it because I had eyes that looked so much like Zhou Xiaoya's?"

Gu Huaijin's face was filled with anger, and he asked:

"Who told you that?" Who said these irrelevant words to provoke Jin Mingzhu when she was pregnant?

Seeing that he was angry, Jin Mingzhu thought that his secrets had been touched upon, and pressed him relentlessly:

"Gu Huaijin, from the beginning to the end, I was just her substitute, right?"

"You are you, not anyone's substitute. Don't think too much..." Gu Huaijin tried to comfort her, and suddenly felt that the power of words was so pale.

She smiled weakly and said sarcastically:

"I was saying, there is no such thing as love at first sight, it turns out I am just a bit like you"

Seeing her sad look, Gu Huaijin felt a pain in his heart. He leaned over and hugged her, explaining:

"Zhou Xiaoya and I were just having a casual affair. I thought highly of her because her eyes looked so much like the little girl who fell into the water. Later, when I met you in Beijing, I realized that you were the little girl I had been looking for."

"Xianxian, you have never been anyone's substitute, you are just yourself."

Jin Mingzhu didn't believe him. Gu Huaijin's words had never been credible to her. She pushed Gu Huaijin away and said softly:

"I want to sleep, you go out."

"I'll stay with you." Gu Huaijin insisted. She just felt a wave of nausea in her heart and refused:

"I do not want."

Gu Huaijin looked somewhat helpless. Ever since she became pregnant, she had become more willful and he had just let her do whatever she wanted.

I could only touch her head and said softly:

"Okay, I'm next door, call me if you need anything."

When Gu Huaijin walked out of the room, the doting look on his face was gone, leaving only a bloodthirsty and murderous intent:

"Go check! Who did the madam meet at the party and what did they talk about?"

Soon, Zhou Xiaoya was taken to the basement of Shadow Pavilion. The dark and damp environment aroused the fear in her heart.

"Who are you? Why did you bring me here?" she asked anxiously.

Shadow was annoyed by the question and kicked the sack hard a few times. Zhou Xiaoya wailed:

"Be honest and don't ask about things you shouldn't." Shadow warned and kicked him a few more times.

Zhou Xiaoya didn't dare to scream anymore. She recalled what Xu Huaiyu had told her and calmed down.

Steady footsteps sounded from beside her, passed her, and the person sat down at the seat.

The cover in front of her was removed. Zhou Xiaoya squinted her eyes, adjusted to the sudden strong light, and saw Gu Huaijin above her.

Hesitantly and fearfully asked:

"Huai Jin, why did you bring me here?"

Gu Huaijin looked gloomy and said nothing. Chen Chuan asked loudly:

"Ms. Zhou, please think carefully about whether you said anything you shouldn't have said to your wife today?"

She seemed to remember something and said quickly:

"Huai Jin, I didn't say anything. I just chatted with her for a few minutes, just talking about family matters."

"Really?" Gu Huaijin's icy voice sounded in front of her.

"Don't tell the truth now, do you want to die here?"

Feng Zhen immediately stepped forward, loaded his pistol, and put it to her head, pretending to shoot:

"You haven't said it yet?"

"Huai Jin..." Zhou Xiaoya cried and begged for mercy.

"How could you do this to me? We were truly in love."

Gu Huaijin felt a chill in his heart when he heard her recall the past, and reminded her coldly:

"Zhou Xiaoya, we are just getting what we need from each other: you helped me get rid of the Zhou family's entanglement; I looked up to you just because your eyes look so much like my wife's. Sincerity? It's just a deal."

Seeing him coldly puncture her fantasy, yes, she had always lied to herself that Gu Huaijin really loved her. Now he told her without any warmth that everything was her imagination.

It felt like she had swallowed thousands of needles in her throat, and bitterness welled up in her heart. Zhou Xiaoya asked in disbelief:

"Huai Jin, have you really never loved me? Not even for a minute, no, not even for a moment..."

Seeing her throwing a tantrum and crying like a grouchy woman, Gu Huaijin felt sick. He tilted his head to one side with some disdain and said harshly:

"Tell me! What did you say to her tonight? Tell me every word."

Zhou Xiaoya tried to find any evidence from Gu Huaijin's words, actions, and expressions that Gu Huaijin had loved her, but all she saw was disgust, as if she was the most disgusting thing in the world.

She cried and laughed, laughed and cried again, suddenly broke free from the shackles of the shadow and stood up:

"Gu Huaijin, do you want to know what I told her?"

"I told her that you like her because her eyes look like mine and she is just imitating me."

"You!" Gu Huaijin's hands suddenly tightened, and violent murderous intent permeated his eyes.

"I thought she would be angry; she acted calmly, as if I was talking about someone else."

"I just realized that Gu Huaijin doesn't love you at all. Gu Huaijin, she doesn't love you. From the beginning to the end, you forced it."

Zhou Xiaoya laughed a little crazily, with a sense of revenge, and said sarcastically:

"Gu Huaijin, you are also a pitiful person. You fell in love with someone who doesn't love you..."
