Chapter 445 - Public Displays of Affection Will Only Bring a Quicker Death (1/2)

Suddenly, he had a premonition.

Gu Mingye hesitated for a moment, then pushed Mo Shengyun forward, saying, “Hit the doorbell.”

Mo Shengyun was puzzled but hit the doorbell nevertheless.

Almost immediately, Bai Yuan walked over to open the door.

When he saw Gu Mingye, Bai Yuan gave him a look of sympathy. Suddenly, he turned around and loudly yelled, “Boss, Ah Ye is back!”

At once, all ten pairs of eyes looked in his direction.

Gu Mingye stiffened, and a chill ran down his spine.

He coughed lightly and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Ah Ye,” Yang Dawu’s tone was formal and serious, “Boss knows that you’ve betrayed him.”

“This is regarding your claim that Boss had been bedded,” added Ma Lin.

Fan Lei nodded and chipped in, “That, and you took Boss’ condoms.”

Gu Mingye had no idea what they were saying and defended his own innocence. “When did I say that? And when did I take those!”

Bai Yuan replied, “You said it this morning.”

“You took them this morning,” Yang Dawu added.

Their unspoken solidarity agitated the man all the more. Full of grievance, he looked at Mu Xichen helplessly and protested. “Boss, I’m innocent!”

As Mu Xichen glared sharply back at him, Gu Mingye noticed the faint blush on his face.

His eyes widened and stared harder, but before he could ascertain this, Mu Xichen said calmly, “You’ll do the washing by yourself after the meal. Then, you will perform 50 pushups.”

“Hahaha!”

“Ok.”

“Serves you right for going on a date and for bringing your girlfriend!”

Gu Mingye was full of frustration, and he shouted angrily, “You’re just jealous!”

Bai Yuan clapped and taunted him. “Yes, we’re jealous of you. Serves you right for having a girlfriend!”

Yang Dawu nodded in agreement. “That’s right! You deserve it!”

The rest of the men laughed but did not speak, given that taking either side made no difference to them.

Gu Mingye’s initial pomp and elation were at once cut down.

At this point, Mo Shengyun came up to him and said, “Don’t worry, it’s only the dishes.”

Visibly moved, Gu Mingye held her hand and said, “Indeed, you’re the best. Willing to share weal and woe with me.”

Mo Shengyun shook her head, however, and clarified, “What I meant was, I believe you can handle it all by yourself. All the best!”
