Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Chapter 246

Hearing Gu Yunqiao's comfort, Cheng Yan felt a little more relaxed, but he was still a little entangled: "But... Miss Gu, does she not mind seeing that side of me?"

Gu Yunqiao didn't realize it: "Which side is that?"

"Indifference and hypocrisy, selfishness and ruthlessness, indifference to other people's life and death situation, not honest at all."

Cheng Yan looked at Gu Yunqiao fixedly, and the bad factors in his temper came out. On the one hand, he wanted to scare her away, and on the other hand, he expected her to accept this kind of self: "Outsiders say that I am gentle and refined, and my personality is good, but it is actually an illusion. , that was all pretended by me, my real appearance is far from that."

He was born in the mud, and he climbed up with filth. When he was young, many methods were shady.Even if he is as close as Gu Yunji, at the funfair a few years ago, he tried to plot against him and Xu Shuhua, this matter once left a knot in Gu Yunji's heart, and the two of them have avoided mentioning it until now.

He has read sage books for many years, but benevolence, righteousness and morality are not in his ears. No matter how much he pretends to be, he knows that he is not a gentleman at all.

Gu Yunqiao looked at him with bright eyes, and suddenly broke into a smile: "If Mr. Cheng is called indifferent and selfish, I have nothing to do with He Huishu, but I've become an out-and-out villain for her' pain" gone?"

Cheng Yan was confused by her laughter, and said in a daze: "I am selfish and hypocritical by nature, but I pretend to be a gentleman and gentle in front of everyone, does Miss Gu think it's okay?"

"What's the matter? In life, who doesn't have time to put on an air?" Gu Yunqiao didn't take it seriously, "Mr. Cheng pretends to be a gentleman in front of others, and I still pretend to be a lady in front of others. Don't you think I'm hypocritical?"

Cheng Yan's heart tightened, and he quickly explained: "I definitely don't have that intention, Miss Gu has a straightforward personality, how could she have anything to do with hypocrisy?"

"Isn't that right?" Gu Yunqiao frowned and smiled brightly, "I pretend to be a lady to be frank, and Mr. Cheng pretending to be a gentleman can't be called hypocrisy. If Mr. Cheng is not confident, then may I ask your so-called indifference?" Selfishness, can it be used on me and my brother?"

Cheng Yan did not hesitate: "Of course not. I regard Yun Ji as a lifelong friend, and Miss Gu is... Yun Ji's younger sister. No matter how humble and dirty I am, I will not use it on you."

Gu Yunqiao sighed silently, and said: "A gentleman doesn't care about his heart, and there is no perfect person in the world. You and I are not saints, why should we have such high demands on ourselves? As long as you don't take the initiative to hurt others, 'hypocrisy' is fine. Why not? Mr. Cheng, you are too presumptuous."

Gu Yunji saw it well, a person like Cheng Yan who came out of the dust had extreme self-esteem and low self-esteem at the same time.If you want to climb up, you have to endure what ordinary people can't bear, and endure what ordinary people can't bear. Over time, you get used to disguising yourself, hiding your true nature very deeply, and showing people a false face.

But if a person pretends for a long time, he will be affected by the mask involuntarily and subtly change in that direction.I'm afraid Cheng Yan himself didn't realize that those so-called false gentleness and elegance had already become part of his nature.

Or there is another possibility that Cheng Yan was originally a kind person, but because he suffered too much humiliation and ridicule, he had to develop an indifferent shell to protect himself, otherwise he would not have a strong heart to walk. to today.

Gu Yunqiao saw this, and did not make too many vain arguments with him, but lightly and deftly eased the burden in his heart, and said with a smile: "If someone like Mr. Cheng thinks he can't be called Gentleman, the others should be ashamed to throw themselves into the river."

Cheng Yan's heart lightened when he heard the words, Wan Jun's heavy burden was quietly resolved, and he said with a dumb smile: "I didn't expect Miss Gu to be so free and easy, but I thought too much and complicated, I thought Miss Gu would treat my heart because of this." Be disgusted and alienate me from now on.”

"During the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival, Mr. Cheng found out that I pretended to be a lady and didn't alienate me. Why should I alienate you?" Gu Yunqiao winked at him playfully, and joked, "It's all right now, you are a 'hypocrite', I It's a 'fake girl', let's not say anything about it."

Cheng Yan was startled, then shook his head and laughed.

As Cheng Yan expected, He Chutai took people to the backyard to smash the "personal relationship" before he heard from He Huishu for a long time. No sign of Yan was seen.

He Huishu was not seriously injured, and after waking up, she told He Chutai all about what had happened. As for who beat her, and where Cheng Yan went after she fainted, she had no idea.

He Chutai was so angry that he dropped the cup on the spot, but there was nothing he could do. On the one hand, they did not dare to make a big fuss; on the other hand, they didn't know who hit He Huishu, maybe the other party happened to be the king of Pingyang , This move is to give them a warning, it is best for them to stop here and settle the matter, if not, once the other party comes out to testify, then their He family will be trampled to death.

Thinking of this, He Chutai couldn't get angry, so he could only vent his anger on He Huishu: "You're a waste! I think you have two colors, I asked you to seduce Cheng Yan, and I tricked you too. It’s good for you to drop too, but you actually failed!”

He Huishu lowered her eyelashes timidly, and whispered: "...I did everything I could, no matter whether I pretended to be pitiful or coaxed him to get close, he would not be fooled. I really can't do anything about it. In the end, I wanted to break the jar and yell at people, but I was hit on the head from behind. I really tried my best, brother..."

"Do your best? Damn! I think you just can't let go of your figure, fake reserve!" He Chutai refused to let go, and cursed without scruples, "It is said that men chase women across mountains, and women chase men through layers of gauze. If you can afford it, can he not take the bait?"

He Chutai judged others by himself, and attributed the failure to He Huishu's being too reserved: "How can there be a true sage in the world? Cheng Yan is still a man no matter what. If you follow the methods of prostitutes in brothels to seduce people, I will die." I don't believe he can hold it!"

After all, He Huishu is the daughter of an aristocratic family. Hearing that her first brother compared herself to a prostitute in a brothel, she felt humiliated and instantly turned pale.

In all fairness, He Huishu looks really good, especially now that she is weak and her complexion is sickly pale, I feel pity for her, she is such a sickly beauty.

The more he looked at the concubine's beauty, the more difficult it was for He Chutai to understand: "It stands to reason that with your appearance, even if Cheng Yan is not fooled, he should feel pity. Bar?"

When this idea first came up, he thought it was absurd, but He Chutai thought about it more and more smoothly later, squinting his eyes and pondering for a while, he showed sarcasm: "It doesn't matter whether Cheng Yan is true or not, since he doesn't want to If you are the son-in-law of my He family, don't even think about being the son-in-law of another family!"
