After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

Chapter 105 Still Holding a Grievance

Lin Nan sounded a little worried and asked, "Should we bring her to the banquet tonight too?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yichen sneered and said sarcastically, "I definitely hope she can go."

As he spoke, he looked at me with an ambiguous expression.

I immediately got angry and refused without thinking, "Why are you making decisions for me without even asking my opinion? I didn't say I wanted to go to any celebration party."

I had barely finished speaking when my phone rang.

It was a call.

I looked at the phone with some doubt, but still answered it in front of the two of them.

As soon as the call connected, she took the initiative to extend an invitation to me, "Ms. Gu, I wonder if you have time tonight? I would like to invite you to the celebration banquet."

Before I could even speak, she added another sentence.

"This celebration banquet is for you."

Once he said that, I found it a little difficult to refuse.

After hesitating for a long time, I finally agreed.

"Okay, I will participate."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan's tone was sarcastic, "He doesn't listen to his own boss, but he shamelessly fawns over what others say."

Jiang Yichen's face instantly turned ugly, as if he were about to devour me.

I ignored them and went straight back to my room.

A little later, Lin Nan brought me an evening gown.

She informed me in a rather irritable manner.

"There's a collaboration dinner with Mokuyu Company tonight, wear this."

I glanced at the dress casually and agreed.

"I understand. What time is it?"

Lin Nan could see my displeasure, but she still had to add to it.

"We'll arrange a car for you. When you get to the banquet, don't cause any trouble and affect the company."

Seeing that she had everything arranged, I didn't say anything more.

After warning me, Lin Nan left immediately.

She seemed unwilling to spend even a second longer with me.

That evening, I was taken to the entrance of the banquet venue.

As soon as I arrived, I saw Zhong Junhao greeting guests at the door.

He was the host of this collaboration dinner.

When he saw me coming over, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.

"Miss Gu, it's just in time for you. Let me take you inside."

As I listened to him speak, I unconsciously looked inside.

But I didn't see that familiar figure.

After following Zhong Junhao inside, he immediately led me to greet everyone.

Then I took the opportunity to introduce myself to everyone.

I stood beside him, responding politely to each question.

Just then, I felt a burning gaze coming from the corner.

I instinctively turned around and saw Jiang Yichen looking in my direction with an unfathomable gaze.

I didn't have time to think about his feelings, and Zhong Junhao took me to meet the other guests again.

Jiang Yichen gradually approached us. We were standing quite close together, and his expression turned extremely ugly.

"Why is Mr. Zhong still eyeing people from my company?"

He practically spat out those words through gritted teeth.

It was as if she was talking to Zhong Junhao, but her gaze never left me.

Zhong Junhao simply smiled and responded politely.

"I noticed that Miss Gu came alone today, so I'll just show her around."

Jiang Yichen turned his gaze away and said with a cold laugh.

"Mr. Zhong is really kind-hearted."

Before Zhong Junhao could respond, someone called out to Jiang Yichen from afar.

Jiang Yichen glanced at us one last time and walked in another direction.

After the dinner.

Just as I was about to leave, Jiang Yichen suddenly appeared.

He smelled faintly of alcohol, and his face was slightly flushed, looking like he had drunk too much.

Seeing him like this, she subconsciously took two steps back, increasing the distance between them.

But as if I had provoked him, he grabbed my wrist and questioned me sharply.

"Gu Mo, you stole the show at the banquet tonight. You must be very proud of yourself."

I don't know why Jiang Yichen said that, but I still instinctively defended myself.

“I never came here to show off, and I have no desire to be proud or not.”

But upon hearing my words, Jiang Yichen showed no sign of believing me and continued on.

"Really? Gu Mo, you've always been like this, never taking anyone seriously."

Upon hearing this, I felt somewhat bewildered.

Why is it necessary to bring up the past in today's affairs?

Moreover, as an agent attending this banquet, I did nothing wrong.

I was just doing what an agent is supposed to do.

Is that considered showing off?

I can't understand his thought process, and he's drunk, so I don't want to argue with him further.

"You've had too much to drink. Things aren't what you think. Where's Lin Nan? Let her take you home."

I don't know what I said that offended Jiang Yichen, but he became slightly agitated, gripped my wrist tightly, and said in a cold voice.

“I’m not drunk. Am I wrong? You used to be dazzling and you couldn’t stand anyone else. Even though I’m your husband, you’ve always looked down on me.”

Perhaps fueled by the alcohol, Jiang Yichen poured out all his thoughts.

Seeing his reaction, I was momentarily at a loss for words.

I did make many mistakes in the past.

Just as he said, they never took him seriously.

I sighed softly and apologized to him gently.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong before."

The next second, Jiang Yichen moved a few steps closer to me, his eyes filled with emotions I couldn't understand.

His appearance made me a little scared, and I subconsciously took two steps back.

My actions seemed to provoke him, and he gripped me even tighter.

"Gu Mo, can a simple apology make up for the mistakes you made in the past?"

He gripped me so tightly it hurt, and I couldn't help but struggle.

"What do you want?"

Seeing my question, Jiang Yichen's voice turned a few degrees colder.

"I want you to spend your whole life making it up to me."

Seeing his reaction, I nodded in agreement and answered in accordance with his words.

"Okay, I will spend my whole life making it up to you."

But for some reason, Jiang Yichen let go of my hand immediately after hearing my answer.

His eyes were dark and unfathomable, filled with emotions I couldn't understand.

Just then, Lin Nan's voice rang out from not far away.

"Yichen, what are you doing here?"

As she spoke, Lin Nan walked towards us.

Upon seeing me, she gave me a cold look and stood directly beside Jiang Yichen.

It is clearly a declaration of sovereignty.

After she interrupted us, I didn't say anything more.

Lin Nan didn't say much to me, but turned to Jiang Yichen and said, "Yichen, we've found the person who hacked Gu Mo's phone. It's a competitor of Jiang's."

Instantly, Jiang Yichen's face turned cold, and he said emotionally, "Just proceed according to plan."

Upon hearing this, Lin Nan left to carry out his instructions.

Watching her leave, I hesitated for a long time before finally speaking, "Jiang Yichen, this matter concerns me. Is there anything I can do to help?"

To my surprise, my words elicited a cold laugh from Jiang Yichen.

"What can you do to help? You'll only make things worse."

After saying that, he ignored my feelings and turned to leave.

Watching his departing figure, I sighed softly, unsure how to react.

I know Jiang Yichen is still resentful about me being his agent.
