225 Gu Quan Received Anonymous Email

Su Tian felt guilty. “It was an accident last time.” She apologized for He Qi and shirked responsibility. “Didn’t he compensate you?”

“There’s no point in saying that now.” Lin Jiao had expected her to pretend to be innocent and couldn’t be bothered to argue with her. “Why are you looking for me?”

“Has Quan talked to you?”

“You can’t find him?”

“No.” Su Tian was unwilling to admit it. “We live together. How can we not find each other?”

“He told me last night that you broke up.” Lin Jiao’s tone was mocking. “You don’t have to pretend in front of me.”

“We didn’t break up!” She raised her voice. “Lin Jiao, don’t try to snatch him away from me!”

“Are you crazy?”

“I’m not crazy! No matter what you do, Quan won’t like you again. He only loves me! He only loves me!”

Her sharp roar was more hair-raising than the sound of chalk scratching the blackboard.

Lin Jiao’s ears hurt from the noise.

She pulled away Pei Zhi’s hand that was about to snatch her phone and turned on the loudspeaker. She smiled and teased, “Does he love you for cheating on him?”

“You’re talking nonsense!”

“He Qi personally admitted that you slept with him.”

Su Tian’s mind went blank.

She didn’t believe that He Qi would break his promise and push her into a hopeless situation again. “Lin Jiao, when can you stop lying? He Qi and I are innocent. There’s nothing between us!”

“Your innocence has nothing to do with me. Instead of harassing me, you might as well find time to explain it to Gu Quan.”

“What do you mean I’m harassing you? You’re the one who’s been haunting us and ruining our relationship!”

Lin Jiao suddenly smiled. “Su Tian, I think you need to consult with a psychiatrist.”

Su Tian took a deep breath to calm herself down. “Lin Jiao, I don’t want to argue with you. Please don’t contact Quan anymore. Don’t cause us any more trouble.”

“Who’s causing trouble for whom? I’ve broken up with Gu Quan for more than half a year, and you’re still after me? I don’t even know if I should say that you’re petty or not confident in yourself.”

“I’m not confident? Ha, if you hadn’t contacted him repeatedly, would I need to talk to you?”

“Why are you panicking? Am I right again?”

“You…”

Lin Jiao spoke first. “I’ll get the staff from the mental hospital to pick you up immediately. You’re welcome.”

She blocked the unknown number and turned to look at Pei Zhi. She hugged his neck and rubbed it gently.

“Hubby, don’t be angry.” She raised her chin and kissed those pale red lips. “Don’t take a lunatic to heart.”

Pei Zhi suppressed the anger in his eyes.

He hugged her waist and placed his palm on the back of her head. “Why don’t you let me talk?”

“Your voice is very sexy when you just woke up,” Lin Jiao said bluntly. “I don’t want her to hear it.”

Pei Zhi was stunned for a moment before he smiled happily. “Is my wife so possessive?”

“You don’t like it?”

“I especially like it.” He lowered his head and kissed those lips.

An untimely rumble sounded.

Lin Jiao pursed her sparkling lips and stared at him without blinking. “What are we eating?”

“Do you want to eat out or at home?”

“Let’s order takeout.”

“Then you choose.” Pei Zhi picked up his phone and went to the study.

He called Qu Shao. “Sort out the information and send it to her friends in Lin City.”

“What about He Qi?”

“Throw him to the boxing ring first. When Su Tian meets that man, let him see it with his own eyes.”

Qu Shao was excited. “Okay.” He picked up the iPad from the coffee table. “I’ll do it now.”

“There’s one more thing.” Pei Zhi recalled what Su Tian had said just now, and his voice was filled with ruthlessness.

He had always been protective.

Moreover, the person she was scolding was the person he loved the most.

He would not let her off so easily.

The blazing sun poured through the clouds and landed on the small bungalow in Lufu Bay.

Gu Quan followed the sound to the living room. As expected, he saw glass shards on the carpet.

He kneaded his eyebrows. “Su Tian.”

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Tian, who was sobbing on the sofa, looked up in surprise and joy.

She approached him barefooted, trying to win his pity. “Quan, where did you go? I waited for you all night.”

“I didn’t ask you to wait.” He stepped back, keeping an arm’s length from her. “Why are you smashing things?”

“I got scolded.”

“No matter who you get into a conflict with, you shouldn’t vent your anger on other people’s things, understand?”

Su Tian was stunned. Her eyes reflected that indifferent and impatient face. She did not expect him to have such a reaction.

She followed his figure with her gaze. As he headed for the stairs, she called out to him again. “Do you know who scolded me?”

“None of my business.”

“It’s Lin Jiao!” She straightened her neck and said, “I was scolded by your ex-girlfriend. Is it none of your business?”

Gu Quan stopped in his tracks.

He stared down at her, his expression unreadable. “How did she scold you?”

“She called me b*tch.” Su Tian fabricated many lies, wanting him to hate Lin Jiao.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. “This isn’t the first time she’s insulted me. I just smashed something in a fit of anger.”

Gu Quan recalled what happened last night.

The smile in his eyes disappeared when he heard the noisy sobbing. “Jiaojiao won’t and doesn’t know how to scold people.”

“You don’t believe me?”

“I don’t believe you.” He glanced toward the living room. “Not until you show me the phone call records.”

Su Tian turned to ask the nanny for her phone. “You can check if it’s her number.”

“Why did you call her?”

“My phone’s dead. I didn’t answer when she called me, so I called back.”

Gu Quan sneered. “Is it fun to play with me?” He pointed in the direction of the coffee table. “Two minutes ago, your screen lit up.”

“I charged it.” Su Tian thought for a moment and said, “Quan, am I that untrustworthy in your heart?”

“You know that too?” He took out the vibrating phone from his pocket and turned to go upstairs. “I don’t have time to watch you put on an act.”

“Quan…”

“Leave me alone.”

The sound of the door slamming from the study was like a punch to Su Tian’s heart, making her face turn pale.

Her uneasiness and anxiety grew wildly, and her thoughts were in a mess. She really did not know how to deal with it.

Just as she was deep in thought, Gu Quan, who was sitting in his office chair, opened the anonymous email from the computer.
