"Do you think you can hide the fact that you've been spreading rumors online? Why did you do that?" Gu Tingyu roared angrily.
He took a step forward, his eyes fixed on Xu Rou, as if trying to see right through her.
Upon hearing this, Xu Rou's face turned pale instantly.
Gu Tingyu found out about her affair, but she still tried to deny it.
"I didn't, Tingyu, you've misunderstood me. How could I do such a thing?" Xu Rou's voice trembled slightly.
"You still want to argue? The evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?" Gu Tingyu's eyes were filled with disappointment.
He originally thought Xu Rou was a trustworthy person, but now he felt that he had misjudged her.
At this moment, the sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves, creating patches of light that look like shattered mirrors scattered on the ground.
Gu Tingyu's face appeared even more stern under the interplay of light and shadow, and his voice was deep and suppressed, as if every word carried a heavy weight.
"Xu Rou, I want to know why you're targeting Li Yan? You weren't like this before. You've changed, you've changed so much that I almost don't recognize you anymore."
Gu Tingyu frowned, his hands unconsciously clenching as if he was trying his best to suppress his anger.
Upon hearing Gu Tingyu's words, Xu Rou's anger flared up instantly.
Her eyes widened, like an enraged cat, and her once gentle face became somewhat distorted.
"I've changed? Gu Tingyu, how can you say that about me?"
"I'm targeting Li Yan? That's because she's not simple at all. She's always hanging around you two brothers; who knows what she's up to?" Xu Rou's voice was sharp and grating.
She leaned forward slightly, as if trying to convey her anger more directly to Gu Tingyu.
Gu Tingyu was surprised by Xu Rou's rebuttal, and his expression worsened.
"You're being completely unreasonable! Li Yan has never done anything to harm us. Yet you're deliberately causing trouble for her. How have you become such a narrow-minded person?"
Gu Tingyu's voice rose a few decibels.
His eyes held not only anger but also a hint of disappointment.
Just as the two were entangled in their argument, Zhou Zeran happened to pass by.
He came to handle some work-related matters, but he never expected to witness such a scene.
Zhou Zeran was dressed in a sharp suit, his hair was neatly combed, but there was a hint of fatigue in his eyes.
He stood not far away, quietly watching Gu Tingyu and Xu Rou, his eyes gradually turning cold.
Gu Tingyu also saw Zhou Zeran, paused for a moment, and then took a deep breath.
He knew the situation was a bit awkward, and he didn't want to continue this endless entanglement with Xu Rou.
Gu Tingyu glanced at Xu Rou, his tone cold and distant.
"Xu Rou, I'm very disappointed in you. Let's both calm down."
After saying that, Gu Tingyu turned and left.
Xu Rou felt a little anxious when she saw Gu Tingyu about to leave.
She didn't have time to think about anything else and hurriedly chased after him, her steps a little flustered.
However, when Xu Rou saw Zhou Zeran's pale face, she suddenly stopped.
She looked at Zhou Zeran, at a loss, wanting to explain herself.
“Zeran, things are not as you see them. Gu Tingyu came to me on his own. I did nothing. I did nothing to betray you.”
Xu Rou's eyes held a hint of panic, and her voice carried a pleading tone.
However, Zhou Zeran looked at Xu Rou with no warmth in his eyes and a mocking smile on his lips.
