AMRWFA -Chapter 224 Honesty

“You’re not afraid my parents will get angry and cause you trouble?”

“I am. But I should take responsibility for this. The whole thing started because of me anyway. I can’t let Uncle and Auntie be angry with you over something that has nothing to do with you.”

“Can I think about it?”

Hearing this, Situ Ruiwen already understood.

Tu Yuyan still had a very good impression of him. Otherwise, after hearing about this, she would have already gotten angry and demanded to break off the engagement according to her personality.

But it could also be because she didn’t love him enough.

Because she didn’t love him enough, she could remain so calm and rational.

Unknowingly, Situ Ruiwen felt a trace of disappointment in his heart.

He wasn’t completely without feelings for Tu Yuyan either. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have agreed to this engagement in the first place. In the end, it was just that youthful passion had already been consumed, and after becoming more mature, he had learned to consider everything more cautiously.

Even love now had to be weighed against many factors.

Situ Ruiwen quickly regained his rationality and invited Tu Yuyan to deal with the other two together. The reason was simple—they were the ones who wanted to force them to break off the engagement. In that case, they would both appear together in front of Gao Yousheng and Qu Shiyi and see how they would “perform.”

“You’re looking for me?”

As soon as Gao Yousheng walked in, he froze.

Because besides his good brother, his fiancée Tu Yuyan was also there.

His expression immediately darkened. He said unhappily to Sito, “Why is she here?”

Situ Ruiwen replied, “She’s my fiancée. Why can’t she be here?”

“Did she complain to you?” Gao Yousheng muttered. “That woman is really petty. She has to run to you over something like this…”

“You told her to give me up to another woman. That’s a small matter?” Situ Ruiwen said coldly. “She is my fiancée. Whether we are together or not is something we decide. Not you. You’ve crossed the line.”

“I was doing this for your own good. You don’t even like her…”

Situ Ruiwen asked, “How do you know I don’t like her?”

“You’re my brother. What kind of woman you like, don’t I know?”

“Then sorry to disappoint you. I know exactly what I like. For example, the one you sent to my bed—I could never like her.”

Gao Yousheng’s expression changed instantly. “What woman? What are you talking about?”

“You think bribing the hotel staff means they wouldn’t hand over the surveillance footage? I’ve already checked everything. That woman is Qu Shiyi—your beloved. It’s said she likes me. And because she once said she liked you, you disregarded years of friendship and sent her to my bed.”

Situ Ruiwen stared straight into Gao Yousheng’s eyes and added a question he had long suspected: “Did you drug the alcohol?”

“I didn’t!”

“If you didn’t, then why was I able to be with a woman after getting drunk? Gao Yousheng, do you not even have basic medical knowledge? A drunk man can’t get it up.”

“……”

“You don’t want me to call the police, right?”

“You’re going to call the police?!”

“That depends on your choice. If you don’t want me to, then call Qu Shiyi here. We’ll make everything clear face to face.”

“And in front of my fiancée.”

Gao Yousheng looked at Tu Yuyan, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

He felt that Tu Yuyan was looking at him with a mocking gaze.

She must be laughing at him inside—calling him Situ Ruiwen’s best brother, and yet he couldn’t even compare to a woman.

Gao Yousheng clenched his fists, resentment rising in his heart.

Years of friendship… couldn’t even compare to a woman!

“Fine. I’ll call her.”

He knew very well that if Situ Ruiwen really reported him, he would likely end up in prison. He had only dared to do this because he thought Situ Ruiwen would not turn against him.

He never expected…

He let out a cold laugh.

He picked up his phone, about to call, when Situ Ruiwen suddenly said, “Don’t mention me or Yuyan. Just say you want to see her.”

Because he was worried that if their names were mentioned, Qu Shiyi might not come.

Qu Shiyi arrived soon after receiving the call from Gao Yousheng.

The moment she stepped into the café and saw Situ Ruiwen and Tu Yuyan, her smile froze.

Her heart skipped a beat. She didn’t understand why they were there, but quickly composed herself, pretended not to know them, paused briefly, and then walked in smiling to greet Gao Yousheng.

“So you are Miss Qu—the one who has my good brother completely smitten, even to the point of willingly wearing a green hat for himself. Impressive.”

Situ Ruiwen’s tone was full of sarcasm, showing no courtesy at all.

Qu Shiyi didn’t know he already knew what happened that night, and looked at Gao Yousheng in confusion, as if asking: What is he talking about?

Gao Yousheng sighed and pulled Qu Shiyi over, making her sit down in front of them.

“They already know about that night.”

Qu Shiyi looked confused.

“The night I sent you to his room.”

Her heart jolted. “You mean… the night you took me back to the wrong room? You… you told him everything? How am I supposed to face people now?”

Her face turned anxious and aggrieved.

“I didn’t blame you for sending me to the wrong room, but how can you go around spreading this? Gao Yousheng, you’ve gone too far! I really treated you as my best friend—how could you do this to me?”

“No, Shiyi, listen—he didn’t hear it from me. He figured it out himself…”

……

Situ Ruiwen and Tu Yuyan said nothing, watching the two of them “rehearse” in front of them.

After they finished, Situ Ruiwen finally spoke again, his tone full of mockery: “What? Do you think I’m an idiot? One sends a woman to my bed, the other pretends to be drunk and climbs into my bed—and even after being exposed, you’re still acting in front of me? Do you find this entertaining?”

Tu Yuyan took a sip of coffee and said calmly: “How could it not be entertaining?”

“The one who ‘sent the wrong person’ was Gao Yousheng. The one who sent the woman was also Gao Yousheng. Miss Qu here, though, is completely innocent…”

“She was drunk at the time and knew nothing. So kind-hearted too—after something like that happened, she didn’t even get angry. She forgave him so easily. So saintly, like a pure white lotus.”

“No wonder your good brother likes her so much—even willing to wear a green hat for himself.”

“In fact, you should tell him he doesn’t need to rush to drag you down with him. He’s already worn more green hats than he can count. One more or one less doesn’t matter.”

Qu Shiyi immediately felt exposed. Panic rose in her heart, and her expression almost slipped.

But she had always been skilled in emotional manipulation.

So she immediately turned tearful.

Ignoring Situ Ruiwen completely, she targeted Tu Yuyan instead and said pitifully: “Miss, we’re meeting for the first time, aren’t we? How can you say such things about me? I know what happened between me and your fiancé makes you upset, but it was all an accident. We were both drunk that night, not conscious at all—we didn’t even know who was on the bed…”

When mentioning that night, she even blushed, implying how intense it had been and how much Situ Ruiwen supposedly desired her.

She could understand Tu Yuyan’s feelings, but she couldn’t allow her to smear her reputation.

She and Gao Yousheng were innocent. They were just “friends” with a slightly closer relationship.

Did Tu Yuyan not have male friends too?
