After the substitution marriage, I became the CEO's white moonlight

Chapter 32 I have always treated you like a brother or sister

Gu Jinyan took a step back and kept his distance from Tang Wan. His eyes were indifferent, as if he was looking at a stranger. "Chance? You no longer have a chance." His tone was cold and emotionless.

"No, it's not like that, Brother Jin Yan, please listen to my explanation..." Tang Wan wanted to explain in panic, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Gu Jinyan.

"That's enough." Gu Jinyan's voice was full of majesty. "I already know everything you have done. What else do you have to say?"

Tang Wan was stunned, her face was pale, her lips were trembling, but she couldn't say a word. She knew that everything she had done was exposed, and her carefully planned conspiracy was finally discovered by Gu Jinyan.

Despair and shame surged in her heart. Tang Wan could no longer bear such a blow. She stood up suddenly, turned around and tried to escape from this suffocating place.

"Want to leave? Not that easy!" Su Li's voice sounded behind Tang Wan. She quickly stepped forward and grabbed Tang Wan's arm.

Tang Wan struggled to shake off Su Li's hand, but found that she was surprisingly strong. "Let me go!"

Su Li ignored Tang Wan's struggle. She pulled Tang Wan to Gu Jinyan, pointed at the guests in the banquet hall, and said word by word: "Look at these people. They are all here to witness our success, but you want to destroy it all. Do you think you still have a chance to escape?"

Tang Wan looked at the disgusted and contemptuous eyes around her. She knew that she had completely failed. She lost to Su Li and also to herself.

"You win," Logan's voice was low and hoarse, "What do you want?"

Su Li let go of Tang Wan's arm. She looked at the woman who had once made her envious and jealous, and felt mixed emotions. "I don't want to do anything," Su Li said calmly, "I just hope you can understand that some things are not yours and will never be yours."

Tang Wan smiled bitterly. She looked at Gu Jinyan with despair and unwillingness in her eyes. "Brother Jinyan, are you really so heartless?"

Gu Jinyan looked at Tang Wan with a complicated expression. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "I..."

"My feelings towards you have always been just brother and sister. You have always misunderstood my feelings. Su Li and I truly love each other. Our feelings are indestructible and cannot be destroyed by anyone."

These words were like a bolt from the blue, completely shattering Tang Wan's last glimmer of hope. She fell to the ground helplessly, tears blurring her eyes. She once thought that as long as she worked hard enough, she would be able to get Gu Jinyan's love one day, but reality gave her a hard blow, making her understand that some feelings, once missed, are missed, and cannot be forced.

The banquet hall was silent, and everyone held their breath and watched the scene in front of them. The relatives of the Gu family whispered to each other. They did not expect that the usually gentle Gu Jinyan would have such a cold and ruthless side. The representatives of the partners looked like they were watching a good show. For them, the more exciting this farce was, the better, so that they could gain more benefits from it.

Su Li stood quietly beside Gu Jinyan, looking at the heartbroken woman in front of her. There was no joy of victory in her heart, only deep sympathy and pity. She knew that the reason why Tang Wan became what she is today was because of the pain and despair of not being able to love.

"I understand..." Tang Wan's voice was hoarse and weak. She slowly stood up, looked around with empty eyes, and finally set her gaze on Su Li, "Su Li, you win. I wish you and brother Jin Yan happiness." After saying that, she turned and left the banquet hall, never looking back.

After Tang Wan left, there was a lot of discussion in the banquet hall. Gu Jinyan ignored the discussion. He walked to Su Li, gently held her hand, and said softly, "Let's go."

Su Li nodded and followed Gu Jinyan out of the banquet hall. The two walked side by side in the Gu family garden. The night breeze blew away the heat of the day and the haze in Su Li's heart.

"Are you really okay?" Gu Jinyan stopped and asked with concern.

Su Li shook her head, a faint smile appeared on her lips, "I'm fine, just a little tired."

"Then go to bed early." Gu Jinyan said, "Tomorrow, we have more important things to do."

Su Li looked at Gu Jinyan in confusion, "What's the matter?"

Gu Jinyan smiled mysteriously, "You will know tomorrow."

In the banquet hall, the light from the crystal lamps fell, making everything dazzling. There were endless laughter and joy among the elegant ladies, and the joy was beyond words. Su Li and Gu Jinyan stood in the center of the banquet hall, accepting blessings from all directions.

This banquet was held to celebrate the success of the project and their love. The relatives of the Gu family who once doubted Su Li's identity now put on enthusiastic smiles and came forward to express their congratulations.

"Su Li, you are really the lucky star of our Gu family! Ever since you came into the family, Jin Yan's career has been flourishing, and our Gu family has also benefited a lot!" A woman dressed elegantly and gracefully took Su Li's hand and smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits.

"Yes, Su Li, you are so lucky to marry such a good man like Jin Yan. You must cherish him!" Another lady also echoed.

Su Li always had a decent smile on her face when facing these blessings. She knew that these blessings might not be completely sincere, but at least it showed that she had initially gained the recognition of the Gu family.

Gu Jinyan always stood beside Su Li, his deep eyes following her, as if she was the only one left in the world. He would occasionally take the wine glasses handed over by the guests and clink glasses with them, but his eyes never left Su Li.

"How is it? Are you getting used to it?" Taking advantage of the moment when the guests were greeting each other, Gu Jinyan lowered his head and asked Su Li.

Su Li smiled slightly, "It's okay, just a little tired."

"Just tell me if you're tired, don't force yourself." Gu Jinyan said gently, his eyes full of heartache.

Su Li shook her head, "It's okay, I can still hold on."

"After the banquet, I'll take you to a place." Gu Jinyan suddenly said, with a hint of mystery in his tone.

"Where?" Su Li asked curiously.

Gu Jinyan just smiled and said, "You'll know when the time comes."

The banquet lasted until late at night, and the guests left happily. After Su Li and Gu Jinyan sent the last guest away, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Let's go, I'll take you to that place." Gu Jinyan took Su Li's hand and walked out of the banquet hall.

The moonlight poured down like water, stretching the figures of the two people very long. Gu Jinyan held Su Li's hand and walked out of the banquet hall. The noisy sound was isolated behind them, and it seemed that there were only the two of them in the world.

"Where are we going?" Su Li asked softly, with a hint of curiosity in her tone.

Gu Jinyan did not answer directly, but smiled mysteriously and took her to a quiet garden. Under the moonlight, flowers of various colors swayed gently in the night breeze, exuding a charming fragrance.

"Do you still remember this place?" Gu Jinyan stopped and turned to look at Su Li.
