Goodnight Kiss from My Rumored Husband

Gu Nianshen could guess what Qi Shaodong was trying to say from his hesitance. “Leave out the unnecessary details. Get to the point.”

“Alright.” Qi Shaodong nodded before he continued speaking, “He did not stay with Mrs. Gu after arriving in America. During this period, he only went to Mrs. Gu’s university twice. Moreover, he rarely attended classes at his own university. However, oddly, he had not fallen behind in his studies at all. When it came time for graduation, he was able to graduate successfully.”

‘I was able to look after myself for the last five years abroad…’

When Lin Yiqian mentioned being alone abroad for the last five years, she had clearly let the words slip out unintentionally.

That meant she really did spend most of the five years abroad on her own.

Gu Nianshen frowned thoughtfully while he rested his face against his hand, which had stacked against the window.

Could she have broken up with Song Changlin when they went abroad after realizing he had character flaws?

Gu Nianshen began smiling while he thought of this.

Qi Shaodong would occasionally glance at the rearview mirror at Gu Nianshen. He discovered that Gu Nianshen’s facial expression had not changed at all for over ten minutes.

Gu Nianshen was smiling like a fool.

All he found out was that his wife had not spent a lot of time with his rival while she lived in America. Did he have to be this happy?

Qi Shaodong tutted and shook his head. The smile on Gu Nianshen’s face disappeared suddenly when he noticed Qi Shaodong’s reaction.

“Did you find out where Song Changlin lived and whom he had interacted with?” Gu Nianshen asked with a serious expression.

“Is it necessary to investigate all this?” Qi Shaodong frowned confusedly. Coincidentally, as the car came to a halt in front of a traffic light, Qi Shaodong turned his head around to look at Gu Nianshen. “Boss, is there anything else you would like to find out about Chief Song?” He asked uncertainly.

Gu Nianshen’s facial expression remained dull as he ignored Qi Shaodong’s final question. “Find out whom he mingled with during those years in America. I want to find out about his circle of friends.”

“I understand.” Qi Shaodong nodded without daring to ask any further.

“How’s the arrangement for the trip to Suka’s event going?” Gu Nianshen changed the topic.

“Everything’s set. Your flight is in the evening on the ninth.”

While the car began to move, Qi Shaodong continued speaking, “This time around, Suka even invited several celebrities within the country to attend, including Roland and Zhang Chengxin.”

“Who are these people?” Gu Nianshen asked blankly.

Qi Shaodong remained silent.

Did Gu Nianshen really not know who these people were?

Qi Shaodong took a quick glance at Gu Nianshen. From the dull expression on his face, it seemed as if he really had no idea who they were.

Nevermind. Regardless of whether Gu Nianshen truly did not know about these people or if he was merely pretending, Qi Shaodong still needed to answer him. “One of them is a singer, while the other is an actor. They are both very well-known.”

Qi Shaodong paused. “However, neither of them has any notable achievements. They were probably invited by the several brands they have endorsed in the last two years.”

“What does that have to do with me?” Gu Nianshen frowned.

Qi Shaodong fell into silence.

Did being the same race count?

Gu Nianshen sure was a conversation stopper.

***

Gu Nianshen and Lin Yiqian had agreed that they would return home together after work. However, since Gu Nianshen needed to be away on a business trip a few days from now, he needed to complete some work in advance.

Therefore, he could only ask Lin Yiqian to come to look for him after work.

By then, all the employees working in the CEO’s office had already left work. Even Qi Shaodong was asked to leave. When Gu Nianshen heard the sound of knocking on the door, he thought it was Lin Yiqian.

Without lifting his head, he said, “come in.”

‘This idiot’. Why was Lin Yiqian being this formal when she arrived at his office?

While Gu Nianshen cursed in his head, he realized that the voice that came from the door did not belong to Lin Yiqian. “Nianshen.”

“Why are you here?” Gu Nianshen looked up in surprise.
