Chapter 94: What Bad Luck
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Many people often say that when you learn to ice skate, you’re bound to fall at least once. But Gu Zi did not fall even once because Su Shen was by her side.
As she glided gracefully on the skating rink, she sported a radiant smile, akin to a princess dancing a waltz, appearing light and agile.
In her previous life, she had been consumed by studies and work, leaving her with few hobbies beyond cooking and reading.
Now, she had stumbled upon a new passion—ice skating.
Turning around, she spotted Su Shen following closely, guarding her like a knight.
The man stood at least 1.9 meters tall, with a robust physique, long legs, and well-proportioned features that were fitting for a knightly figure.
A peculiar feeling welled up within Gu Zi. It was a sensation challenging to define but unmistakably one of security.
Perhaps her fixation on him had caused her to lose her balance, and she felt herself stumbling.
She thought she was about to fall, but just in the nick of time, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist.
She found herself securely encased in his broad embrace, and they continued gliding seamlessly, much to the astonishment of onlookers.
The pair, a tall and handsome man alongside a beautifully shaped woman, appeared to be an incredibly harmonious match.
Su Shen and Gu Zi were entirely engrossed in their waltz, blissfully unaware of the attention they had garnered at the ice rink.
Among the numerous envious gazes directed at Gu Zi and Su Shen, one particular gaze was notably intrusive and unsettling.
The man wearing a flowery shirt and bell-bottom pants was under the illusion that he exuded irresistible charm. With legs trembling in his bell-bottom pants, he confidently took off the pair of aviators from his shirt collar and strode toward the couple when he saw them approaching the railing.
“Hey there, Bro, and who is this lovely lady by your side?” The man’s greasy gaze lingered on Gu Zi as she instinctively sought refuge behind Su Shen.
Clearly unimpressed, Su Shen responded in a cold tone, “My fiancée, Gu Zi. This is Su Jing’s boyfriend, Tian Hai.”
Gu Zi offered only a brief acknowledgment and did not greet the man. Firstly, she felt that there was no need to know him. Secondly, she really hated the way this man looked at her. It was so wretched!
In a flash, a memory resurfaced in her mind.
Gu Zi vividly remembered the convoluted story involving Tian Hai from the original book. In that version of events, Tian Hai had indeed pursued her, and his influence on Su Jing had led to Su Shen working at the pig farm. He had consistently tried to connect with Gu Zi whenever the opportunity presented itself.
Over time, the villagers began to gossip about the Host seducing her sister-in-law’s fiancé, Tian Hai, and betraying Su Shen.
The Host, however, held no interest in Tian Hai, and she believed herself to be innocent, refusing to engage in any attempts to prove herself to others.
Later, when these words reached Su Jing’s ears and she wanted to break up with Tian Hai, Tian Hai panicked.
If it was in the past, he would have broken up with Su Jing, but it was different now. Su Jing’s brother was so rich!
If Su Jing broke up with him, where would he go to live off a woman? He was still relying on Su Jing’s money to flirt with girls.
He would not give up his entire flower field for a single proud rose.
He lied to Su Jing and pushed all the responsibility to the Host. He said that the Host had seduced him and asked to meet him, but he insisted on his love for Su Jing and had never done anything to let Su Jing down.
Su Jing believed Tian Hai and came to find the Host and Su Shen to argue. Su Shen was very disappointed in the Host. This must have been the reason for their divorce.
As Gu Zi recalled the contents of the original book, she felt disgusted when she saw Tian Hai in front of her. What bad luck!
She and Su Shen were about to leave the ice rink when Su Shen headed off to change into his skates.
Seizing the opportunity, Tian Hai attempted to strike up a conversation with Gu Zi, using his typical lines to seduce her.
“Zizi, you’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. Let me reintroduce myself. My surname is Tian, and my first name is Hai. You can call me Brother Hai in private.”
With unconvincing confidence, Tian Hai resorted to his usual charm, but to Gu
Zi, his advances were repulsive. The mere sight of him made her feel nauseous. Tn a retort that caught Tian Hai off guard. Gil Zi spanned. “If there’s no mirror
at home, one can always use urine. What kind of toad are you, hopping around on the streets? Get away from me!”
Tian Hai was stunned. He had never thought that there would be a day when his words of charm would fail.
This opening line had served him well in the past, and he couldn’t believe it wasn’t working this time.
He audaciously assessed Gu Zi’s appearance, her well-endowed breasts, and shapely behind, contemplating the satisfaction of touching them.
In his experience, women like her were the most likely to respond to his advances.
There was no way he would give up so easily..
