Chapter 178: Chapter 178: Black Lotus

Just like that, the siblings lost their favors and everyone started to mistreat them, but they remembered their mother’s last wish and vowed to fulfill it.

........

Present.

Long Yifan wiped away the tear, and with a wave of his hand, he threw away everything aside.

Maybe the pain was truly too much to bear, because the next second, Long Yifan shouted,

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh."

It took an entire day, but Long Yifan finally calmed down and when he did, Long Yifan paid a visit to Gu Aihan’s villa.

Gu Aihan wasn’t surprised when she got to know that Long Yifan had come to visit her.

She had harmed his sweetheart, of course, he would come to take revenge, but she had already prepared a weapon.

She slowly put on her makeup and dressed casually. With graceful posture, she made her way to the living room.

Gu Aihan’s beauty could be said to cause the downfall of a country only if she does her makeup properly.

The moment Long Yifan saw Gu Aihan, he chuckled,

"Is it fun ?"

This reaction surprised Gu Aihan.

Wasn’t he supposed to be angry and aggressive?

However she didn’t show it on her face and only smiled,

"What do you mean Fan?"

Long Yifan leaned near her right ear and said in a low voice,

"What I mean, is it fun to seduce other men and act innocent?"

Gu Aihan’s face paled, but she quickly composed herself and asked with a confused look,

"What? Fan are you..." drunk?

However, before she could finish her words, Long Yifan laughed.

His laughter was so terrifying that the atmosphere instantly turned cold.

Gu Aihan’s beautiful face was filled with unease and she gritted her teeth,

"Long Yifan, don’t you dare laugh like that..."

Long Yifan, however, didn’t stop laughing.

Suddenly he stopped and said,

"Gu Aihan, I earlier thought that you were a white lotus but from the looks of it you are more of a black lotus.

You play around with different men and seduce my brother just an hour before our engagement, yet you can’t endure if another girl talks with me.

I think the world’s darkest thing is your heart. "

Gu Aihan bit her lips and said in a small voice,

"Yifan, why am I not able to understand you at all?"

"You can’t because you are dumb." Long Yifan laughed.

Gu Aihan: "..."

Long Yifan wasn’t done and continued,

"You are so dumb that you forget the things you did a few weeks before. And what did you call her? Mistress, am I right?

What a coincidence, I know an unofficial mistress who loves to paly around, wanna see her photo?"

Then without waiting for Gu Aihan’s reply, Long Yifan took out a mirror and showed Gu Aihan her face.

Gu Aihan couldn’t suppress her anger and shouted,

"Shut up! Shut up! I am your fiance! How could you get angry with me just because of some other girl? Yifan, I loved you too!

But you never loved me. I played around with other men just because I wanted to attract your attention. Yet you remained indifferent, do you know how much hurt I am?"

Long Yifan paused and then nodded,

"Indeed you were so much hurt that you kissed your senior. You were so tired that you ’accidentally’ slapped the last girl who dared to confess to me and blamed everything on me.

Of course, you loved me, but this love was limited. It lasted only till I was a member of the prestigious Long Family."

Gu Aihan cursed Long Yifan in her heart.

This was the reason why she hated Long Yifan the most.

She couldn’t bring herself to like Long Yifan at all.

Though he was a man, he didn’t have any protective instincts towards weak people.

When Long Yifan was still a member of the Long Family, she tried to appear gentle in front of him, just so he could give her two more glances.

She even enacted a play about her getting bullied, but this heartless man never looked at her.

He was too arrogant. After all, he suddenly one day became talented, and was the heir of the wealthiest family in the Captial and even had a handsome face.

At that time, Gu Aihan was truly grateful for the fact that she was the fourth daughter of the Gu family.

God knows why but one day the Long Family visited them and betrothed Long Yifan to her.

Delight wasn’t the only emotion Gu Aihan felt at that time.

She felt as if she was heaven’s favored daughter.

From that day onwards, her status rose and she became the princess in her school. Gu Aihan thought, that since Long Yifan was the one who had proposed to her, there are chance that he liked her.

She waited for him to approach her, or talk with her.

However, when even after one month passed, and Long Yifan still didn’t come to find her, she realized, she was wrong in her assumption.

Having no choice, she personally paid him a visit but Long Yifan only coldly looked at her and said,

"I am not interested in you."

Gu Aihan had her pride too and refused to be around Long Yifan.

However, she soon found out, that her move was wrong since one by one her friends started to leave her.

Turns out, they only revolved around her, because they were interested in Long Yifan.

Gu Aihan panicked and gave up on her ego.

She started to roam around Long Yifan, but Long Yifan’s cold attitude was too apparent and anyone could see that she was rubbing her face against a cold block of ice.

That was when she decided to take matters into her own hands.

If she couldn’t win Long Yifan’s affection through gentleness, she would do it through schemes.

She learned about his friends, and his routines, and started to plant herself in his life in ways he couldn’t ignore.

But no matter what she did, Long Yifan remained indifferent. He treated her with the same detached politeness he offered to strangers.

It drove her mad with frustration. She wasn’t used to being ignored. She wasn’t used to losing.

Thank god, he fell from grace.

He was kicked out of the Long Family.

Gu Aihan instantly wanted to give up on the marriage, but her eldest brother declined.

She still remembered how he preached to her,

"It is in the destiny. Only if the daughter of the Gu family pairs with the son of the Long Family, or only if the daughter of the Long family pairs with the son of the Gu family, would both of them prosper."

Gu Aihan had rolled her eyes.

Only she knew that she wasn’t the daughter of Gu family.

So neither she nor Long Yifan will prosper. They would only waste each other time.

But when she knew that as long as she married Long Yifan, she would be able to amass half of his wealth and even gain the rights to a Magic Stone mine, Gu Aihan returned to her persona of ’I love Long Yifan’

At the same time, she was thinking of whom she should choose as her next husband once she divorced Long Yifan. Hence behind the curtain, she would still hunt for a good target.

The first time Long Yifan discovered her attempts, she repeatedly explained to him that it was a mistake, however when Long Yifan found out about her every affair and yet didn’t break off the engagement, Gu Aihan became confident.

Maybe Long Yifan had some difficulties because of which he couldn’t break off his marriage, so how could she not take his advantage?

From then on, it became common for Long Yifan to ignore Gu Aihan’s affairs.

Gu Aihan was fortunate enough to meet Long Yeiling once and she instantly fell in love with that young man.

She swore to make him, hers.

Long Yifan knew this too but he never stopped her and only asked her to restrain herself a little.

Gu Aihan however didn’t care about his advice and did as she pleased.

Of course, she made sure that no girl could propose to Long Yifan. Even if someone does, she would deal with her.

Call her selfish, but she can’t endure when she sees someone flirting with Long Yifan.

So she would secretly deal with all peach blossom and blame it on Long Yifan. After all, he had a bad reputation, if she contributed a little, it wouldn’t affect Long Yifan too much, right?

Long Yifan would at most compensate the girl and scold her, but that was all.

Gu Aihan never expected Long Yifan to become so angry just because she threatened a little girl from Fujio City.

Now she felt regret.

Before that girl’s death, she should have at least seen her for one last time!

Just to know, what type of girl she was, to make Long Yifan so angry.

Or is it because she is dead that Long Yifan is so angry?
