Chapter 546: Chapter 546: You Can Never Wake Up Someone Who Is Pretending to Sleep

A group of people exited the private room and chased into the courtyard, where Zhong Ling was pleading bitterly with Guo Gongcheng.

Sun Jun couldn’t stand it any longer, "See? This is the mess you’ve made. If I were you, I’d immediately apologize to Brother Guo!"

Gu Ruirui also persuaded, "Yes, Jingting, why don’t you apologize to Brother Guo? That way he might forgive Zhong Ling, and it wouldn’t have to come to a breakup."

Chen Xuan spoke coldly, "Breaking up with a scammer like him might just be Zhong Ling’s good fortune!"

Sun Jun, unable to contain his anger, retorted, "You’ve got some nerve, as if it weren’t for you, Brother Guo and Zhong Ling wouldn’t be in this mess! You should be the one apologizing!"

"That’s right, Chen Xuan, you should hurry up and apologize to Brother Guo!" Gu Ruirui commanded in an authoritative tone.

Guo Gongcheng, who was not far away, naturally heard the conversation and looked meaningfully at Chen Xuan, as if to say, "Just apologize obediently, and I’ll forgive Zhong Ling."

Zhong Ling also turned around to look at Chen Xuan, "Chen Xuan, apologize!"

For a moment, Chen Xuan became the target of everyone’s arrows.

Han Jingting couldn’t bear to watch and was about to defend Chen Xuan.

Just then, a commotion came from the entrance of the resort hotel.

Then, bam bam bam!

Several hotel staff members were knocked to the ground and landed in front of everyone.

Guo Gongcheng’s face immediately turned dark, "Who dares to cause trouble in my hotel!"

A rough voice sounded, "Do you have a problem with me causing trouble?!"

As he spoke, a burly tattooed man, followed by a group of brawny men, walked in with a menacing presence.

Seeing the newcomer, Guo Gongcheng’s face changed dramatically.

"Hao... Brother Hao?!"

Guo Gongcheng recognized at a glance that the tattooed man in front of him was the well-known local tough, Brother Hao, Dai Zhenghao!

This Dai Zhenghao had been mingling in Jiang City for many years and wielded significant power, notorious for being untouchable by both the underworld and lawful society, with few in Jiang City daring to provoke him.

As a Jiang City local, Guo Gongcheng was naturally well aware of this local tough guy.

"You’re Guo Gongcheng?" Dai Zhenghao asked, tilting his chin upward.

Knowing the man not to be trifled with, Guo Gongcheng was extremely respectful, nodding repeatedly.

"Exactly, exactly, I am Guo Gongcheng, Brother Hao. May I know what brought you here?"

"I came because of your damn business!" Dai Zhenghao cursed loudly.

Slap!

Before Guo Gongcheng could finish speaking, Dai Zhenghao slapped him across the face, causing him to spew blood and fall to the ground.

"Gongcheng! How are you, Gongcheng?"

Zhong Ling was startled and hurried to his support.

Seeing Guo Gongcheng bloodied, Zhong Ling felt a surge of distress.

"What right do you have to hit someone!" Zhong Ling shouted furiously.

Dai Zhenghao snorted coldly, "What right? Ask his damn father what right!"

Guo Gongcheng struggled to his feet, looking aggrieved, "Brother Hao, I really don’t know where I’ve offended you. Even if you want to beat me, at least let me understand why."

Dai Zhenghao sneered, "Fine, then I’ll make it clear to you. Tell me, do you recognize Dai Xiaoyue?"

Upon hearing the name, Guo Gongcheng instantly realized something, his eyes filled with panic, "She couldn’t be..."

Dai Zhenghao’s expression turned icy, "Let me tell you, Dai Xiaoyue is my niece!"

Guo Gongcheng felt as though struck by lightning, finally understanding the magnitude of the blunder he’d made.

"Dai Xiaoyue? What’s your relationship with her?" Zhong Ling sensed something was wrong.

Before Guo Gongcheng could open his mouth, Dai Zhenghao scoffed and said, "You’re his woman, right? How come, you don’t even know what kind of thing your own man is?"

"Let me tell you, he’s nothing but a street scammer!"

Scammer?!" This was not the first time Zhong Ling had heard someone call Guo Gongcheng that.

Dai Zhenghao said viciously, "It’s this son of a bitch who, a month ago, deliberately set a trap for my niece, tricked her into some investment, and not only swindled all her money but also scammed her out of the resort hotel she owned!"

"You little bastard, you’ve got some nerve, scamming right into Dai Zhenghao’s family!"

Guo Gongcheng knocked his head in fear, "Brother Hao, it’s a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding! I... I really didn’t know that Dai Xiaoyue was related to you. If I had known, not for a hundred guts would I dare to scam her money!"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Ling, Sun Jun, and the others were completely dumbfounded.

Guo Gongcheng’s words undoubtedly admitted the truth that he was indeed a scammer!

So it turned out that everything Chen Xuan had said was true; Guo Gongcheng really was a scammer!

Zhong Ling couldn’t believe it and grabbed Guo Gongcheng, "Is what you’re saying true? Did you scam this resort hotel? What about Jinxiu City? Were you scamming me too? You scammer! Scammer!!"

Zhong Ling was so angry that she started pounding on Guo Gongcheng.

She had invested her feelings, her energy, and almost married him; this time, she really was scammed terribly!

Guo Gongcheng furiously slapped Zhong Ling across the face.

"Get the hell away from me, what are you going crazy for!"

"For a gold digger like you, being scammed is what you deserve!"

"I’m not handsome, and I don’t have an education, would you have cared about me if you weren’t greedy for money?!"

"Your friend had already warned you earlier that I was a scammer, yet you still clung to me desperately, didn’t you know I was a scammer?"

"I think you were just pretending to be confused, because you couldn’t bear to give up the feeling of living the rich life with me, right?"

"Now what are you pretending to be innocent for, acting like a victim, acting my ass!"

Guo Gongcheng looked at Zhong Ling with disdain and ridiculed her relentlessly.

Zhong Ling shook with rage.

In fact, Guo Gongcheng’s words were quite reasonable.

The lies Guo Gongcheng told were full of holes, and Chen Xuan had also reminded her time and again. Even the evidence had been found, yet she refused to believe it.

Was Zhong Ling really unable to see through it?

Clearly, that wasn’t the case; rather, she preferred to believe the version of reality she wished to see.

She hoped that Guo Gongcheng wasn’t a scammer, but a real success, so she could continue living her wealthy life.

As the saying goes, you can never wake a person who is pretending to be asleep.

This saying couldn’t be more fitting for Zhong Ling.

"Wuu wuu wuu... Scammer! Scammer! Wuu wuu wuu..."

Zhong Ling was too angry to speak and began crying miserably while clinging to Han Jingting.

Han Jingting was quite helpless and comforted her gently, "It’s okay now, it’s better to see his true colors now than to find out after marrying him!"

To be honest, Han Jingting also felt a bit relieved.

Luckily, Guo Gongcheng’s identity as a scammer was thoroughly exposed, otherwise, Zhong Ling might have continued to hold a grudge against her, thinking she was the one who ruined their marriage plans!

"Alright, let’s go. We’ll have nothing to do with this scammer from now on!"

Han Jingting said this, and prepared to leave the hotel with the heartbroken Zhong Ling.

However, before they could take two steps, they were directly stopped by Dai Zhenghao.

"Damn, you think you can just leave? Am I invisible to you?!"
