433: I Have a Wife

I Have a Wife

"Don't worry. I'm telling you so much because I want to tell you the entire past clearly. I really don't want you to misunderstand me again."1

Chen Chen's eyes were a little aggrieved. "Listen to me continue. It'll be Hu Wan's turn soon. Later, I was discharged. At the same time, I became a regular at Gu Qian's bar…"

The two of them could chat very well. Be it their past experiences or their life philosophy, they could talk a lot every time. Especially with each other saving their lives, it made the two of them have an additional trust from the bottom of their hearts.

Chen Chen liked to drink and listen to him talk about his legendary past as a mercenary.

Gu Qian liked to hear what Chen Chen was like in school, pestering those little girls, teasing the teacher, playing truant with his classmates, and so on.

It was all trivial matters, but Gu Qian always listened with relish. Chen Chen would tease him every time. He had so much experience, but he was so bored. He was even willing to listen to these lousy things!

However, at the same time, for some reason, he felt an inexplicable sympathy for Gu Qian.

Perhaps because he had lived in a smooth, loving, and caring environment since he was young, he felt deep sympathy for Gu Qian's encounter and even had the thought of saving him.

The two of them became familiar with each other.

During the first year Bai Ran went overseas, Gu Qian had accompanied Chen Chen through those boring and conflicted times.

On this day, when the two of them were drinking, Gu Qian suddenly said, "Brother Chen, I've been with you for so long. You've also drunk a lot of my wine. Why do you always bring your assistant over to chat with a bachelor like me? Why don't you find a girlfriend?"

Chen Chen was drunk. He smiled bitterly and said, "What girlfriend? I have a wife!"

After hearing this, Gu Qian's gaze at him clearly changed.

As if in disbelief, the smile on his face instantly froze.

Chen Chen did not notice at all. He took a sip of wine and continued, "Sometimes, I really envy single people like you. You don't have to worry about anything. You're carefree!"

Gu Qian's expression was already very ugly.

Chen Chen finally realized. "What's wrong, brother? Did my words remind you of your girlfriend? I'm sorry, I'm sorry…"

Chen Chen thought that he had misspoken and had affected Gu Qian's sad past.

Gu Qian quickly forced a smile and said, "No, don't think too much. I'm just a little surprised. You already have a family?"

"Yes, didn't I tell you?" Chen Chen then reacted. The two of them had indeed not talked about this recently.

Gu Qian's expression clearly darkened as he replied, "That's good. I'm sure she's a gentle and good girl."

Chen Chen smiled bitterly. "Indeed, she's really quite good, but…"

"But what?" Gu Qian asked when he saw his abnormal expression.

He wanted to say that his wife had gone overseas and that he might face a divorce.

However, on second thought, drinking was a happy thing. There was no need to talk about such unpleasant things.

Chen Chen shook his head and picked up his wine glass. "It's nothing. Let's drink! I'll bring her here when I have the chance. You'll know when you get to know her!"

Gu Qian smiled. "Okay!"

He looked at Chen Chen in thought and stopped asking. He continued to drink with Chen Chen, but he was a little distracted the entire night.

At this moment, Chen Chen's phone rang.

Chen Chen picked it up and saw that it was Hu Wan again. A hint of displeasure flashed across his eyes, but he still picked it up. "What's wrong?"

"Where are you? I want to look for you. I haven't seen you much in so many days. What have you been doing recently?" Hu Wan complained sweetly.

He was expressionless and his tone was gentle, but there was a hint of coldness. "I'm drinking with my brother. You're not feeling well, so don't come over. Have a good rest."

After Bai Ran went overseas, Chen Chen had been feeling a little vexed for no reason, especially when he saw Hu Wan. He did not know why, but he did not show it clearly.

"Since we're brothers, what are you afraid of? I'll drink with you. What's the point of two men drinking?" Hu Wan replied.

"I even heard that you were injured and hospitalized previously. You even lied to me that you were on a business trip. You don't even let me know such an important thing. Who do you think I am?" Hu Wan rebuked again.

Chen Chen was afraid that his family would be worried about his injuries, so he did not tell anyone.

"Then how do you know?" Chen Chen was puzzled.
