Chapter 1078: The Flash Marriage Heiress (62)

“I don't actually love money that much.”

System: That sounded completely unbelievable. If Stingy Gu didn't love money, who did?

“Oh?” Tang Guo smiled as she picked up her coffee cup and took a sip. “Then what reason could Lawyer Gu possibly have for wishing every day that I'd get divorced? I'm particularly curious.”

Hearing her say she was particularly curious, the answer nearly slipped out of Gu Ye's mouth.

Of course it's because only after you divorce can we get married.

The words reached his lips before he forcibly swallowed them back down.

His expression turned serious, his face solemn and righteous, as though he had descended from heaven as a messenger of justice.

“Miss Tang is young and exceptional. I don't believe someone like you should waste your youth on a man like Luo Yicheng. You deserve a better life. Someone as wonderful as you deserves someone better. Since Luo Yicheng doesn't love you, staying with him is simply wasting your time. It would be better to find someone who is wholeheartedly devoted to you.”

“Miss Tang, perhaps you should look beyond him. There are still many good men in this world.”

For example… him.

“Oh, so Lawyer Gu simply feels sorry for me?”

Tang Guo raised her eyes slightly. It was an ordinary gesture, yet it left Gu Ye completely enchanted.

No.

He couldn't take it anymore.

If she asked him just two more questions, he might spill every secret he possessed.

At this rate, even how many times he'd wet the bed as a child would probably come out.

Gu Ye quickly looked away.

This woman truly was fatal.

He really couldn't understand how Luo Yicheng could face such a woman every day and remain unmoved.

If it were him, he would have long since scrubbed himself clean and happily laid himself out for her.

If she didn't move, then he would.

“Of course.” Gu Ye smiled. “Miss Tang is young, beautiful, and incredibly capable—a woman blessed with both talent and beauty. She shouldn't waste her years on some scumbag.”

If she were to marry, it should be someone like him.

Someone who would cherish her in the palm of his hand and protect her with care.

“Lawyer Gu certainly knows how to talk.”

“I speak only the truth.”

“Actually, I know I'm quite outstanding myself.” Tang Guo smiled faintly. “You're right. I really shouldn't waste my time on men. Creatures like men are terribly boring.”

The smile on Gu Ye's face almost collapsed.

Could it be that because of Luo Yicheng, Tang Guo no longer believed in love and had lost all interest in romance?

“Miss Tang, scum like Luo Yicheng don't represent everyone.”

Tang Guo glanced at him.

“But they represent most of them. Someone in your profession knows plenty of secrets about the wealthy circle, doesn't he? Quite a few rich men keep several women on the side. Truly clean men are rare. Rather than wasting time and money choosing a man, I might as well hire a couple of bodyguards and travel the world.”

Gu Ye felt bitter.

Wasn't he one of those genuinely clean men?

Nearly thirty years old, and he had remained spotless, never entangled with any woman.

But after falling in love with the woman before him at first sight, he found himself unable to uphold any of his principles.

In the past, money had been the most important thing.

Now, his future wife was even more important than money.

To win her over, he had already lost who knew how much money.

And now his future wife looked as though she'd completely lost interest in love.

What was he supposed to do?

The System was already laughing himself crazy.

Host, you've really broken your precious treasure.

Just look at Gu Ye's pained expression.

Tsk, tsk.

How pitiful.

But… why did he find it strangely satisfying?

Had he been corrupted by his host too?
