Gu Yancheng laughed. "Tianxin, I may not be the most considerate man out there, but I do pay attention to the people who matter to me. Right, Captain Li?"

Li Qingcang forced a smile and replied, "Chairman Gu is right." He paused for a few seconds before adding, "It's hard to find a man who cares for someone else's wife."

Gu Yancheng crossed his arms and leaned back, looking very casual.

"Captain Li, I'm afraid you have misunderstood. It's not true that I have taken a fancy on someone else's wife. The truth is, she was originally my wife."

Gu Yancheng's tone was earnest.

There was an awkward silence in the room.

Everyone grew curious. Many of them were interested in something like two men fighting for a woman's heart.

After all, many television series and movies were centered around such love triangles.

"Chairman Gu, you may have forgotten. Perhaps..."

Li Qingcang did not argue directly with Gu Yancheng, but they were enough to bother Gu Yancheng.

Although Gu Yancheng's memory of that fateful night was somewhat vague, the memories still haunted him.

"That's enough!"

Gu Yancheng interrupted Li Qingcang, who he believed ruined everything for him that night.

If not for him, he and Ye Tianxin would have gone back to where they had left off. They would be an ordinary couple, enjoying their happiness and blissful lives.

Unfortunately, Li Qingcang had ruined everything for him.

That man had spoiled his plans, yet dared to show his face before him.

"Gu Yancheng, can you talk in a more civilized manner?"

Ye Tianxin was displeased at how Gu Yancheng had raised his voice at Li Qingcang.

Gu Yancheng immediately answered meekly when he saw how furious Ye Tianxin was.

"Yes, I'll behave in the future."

Li Qingcang squeezed Ye Tianxin's hand hard. He was glad that his wife stood up for him.

He thought it was such a joy to be protected, trusted, and looked after by his beloved.

It was a new kind of feeling for Li Qingcang, one that he had never experienced in the past.

"Darling, don't get angry over someone so insignificant."

Ye Tianxin smiled sweetly at Li Qingcang. "He yelled at you!"

"I am a grown man. I am okay with being yelled at. I won't lose any sleep over it."

Li Qingcang's heart felt strangely warm, and that warmth comforted him.

Indignant, Ye Tianxin bit her lips and said, "Even so, I won't allow anyone to raise his voice at you or push you around. You are mine."

"Darling, we need to be careful not to be overly affectionate in front of everyone. Otherwise, someone may get jealous. We wouldn't want that now, would we?"

Both Li Qingcang and Ye Tianxin quietly spoke amongst each other, but their hushed tones made them sound like a couple behaving intimately toward each other.

Gu Yancheng clenched his fist. After a while, he loosened his fist and picked up a glass from the table.

The glass contained water with lemon.

It tasted a little sour, just like how he felt irritated by the situation.

The jealousy inside him was growing like a wild weed.

It was slowly creeping into his heart until it was choking him. Suddenly, Gu Yancheng felt as though he had difficulty breathing.

Ye Qingkong seemed to have no idea what was happening. She raised her glass and asked Ye Tianxin, "Ms. Ye, this gentleman beside you is your..."

Ye Tianxin replied sarcastically, "You've been following me around, haven't you? Don't you already know who he is?"
