I Refuse to Be a Supporting Character
Chapter 70: Unforgivable
Gu Jin's words were spoken at the time it took to hit him.
The smile at the corner of his lips trembled like a ripple in water, quietly plucking out his heart.
To Shao Chong, Gu Jin's shallow statement was more painful than being hit by a hammer.
After saying his part, Gu Jin left without looking back even once. He even increased his speed as he caught up with Mu Mingcheng who was in front of him.
It seemed that he was not at all interested in Shao Chong's reaction.
This time, without the need for Mu Mingcheng to persuade him, Gu Jin took the initiative and slipped into his arms.
The two looked at each other lovingly and walked out of the hotel hand in hand.
This caused others to envy them.
After leaving the hotel, they got into the car.
The gentle smile on Gu Jin's face was stifled, and his skin paled. The car was silent.
Bright neon lights flashed past their cars before disappearing into the shadows. In the same way, the light in Gu Jin's eyes faded away.
Some people believe that even after they make a mistake, they still have plenty of opportunities to make up for it.
Do they really think so or just to ease the pain.
That was why Shao Chong, who was reborn with memories of his past, decided to show Gu Jin affection by apologizing and showing his sorrow.
The damage has already occurred, but the victim does not need the late man's apology or reconciling with him.
No matter if it was this missing original host or this fake Gu Jin, the two of them underestimated Shao Chong's actions.
Gu Jin lifted his lips in ridicule.
Suddenly, Mu Mingcheng moved and grabbed the hand of the woman next to him.
Soft and flexible, it feels good.
However, it was ice cold.
“What did you tell him when you stopped earlier?” Mu Mingcheng lowered his voice showing his displeasure.
She was rarely so intimate with him: she took off her coat and wrapped it around Gu Jin's body.
Anyone who knows him well will know that his mood is not good.
Furthermore, Gu Jin and Shao Chong were acting strangely today.
Yeah, that's not unusual. When talking about Cheng Xin, it was clear that Gu Jin did not like Cheng Xin, so he had a premonition that the two of them were going to have a fight. That's just natural.
But Shao Chong's behavior was not appropriate. He was not infatuated with Cheng Xin as revealed in the investigation; instead he seemed to only notice Gu Jin.
Otherwise, that brat Shao would not have done his best to find a blood jade bracelet that was almost entirely similar to the one Gu Jin had with him.
What made him even more unhappy was that after Gu Jin said a few words to him, Shao Chong's face suddenly turned into astonishment as well as sadness. It made Mu Mingcheng who did not know the truth feel ostracized.
Thinking of this, Mu Mingcheng's face grew even darker. It was fortunate that he took the time to accompany Gu Jin to the banquet today. Otherwise, the grass might have grown on top of his head by now.
Mu Mingcheng held onto his palm and coldly smiled: no matter what secrets they had between them, since Shao Chong dared to want his woman, there would definitely be a price to pay.
Gu Jin did not know anything about his thoughts. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
At most, he would think: no wonder he was the head of this arrogant novel, the ruler under the heavens!
Then, he would encourage her to make the Shao family pay the price faster.
If Shao Chong was still the real Shao Chong, he could ignore the other characters in the plot and have nothing to do with them.
But now, Shao Chong was reborn. He had caused tremendous pain to the original owner and Gu Jin was unable to convince himself to forgive him for the original owner.
He also has no right to.
Although…
He's not a direct killer.
Not much, Gu Jin lowered his head and collected a warm jacket with body heat on his shoulders. He suddenly recalled that Mu Mingcheng had another suit in place.
“Master Mu,” Gu Jin pulled the end of the shirt and said, “You still have a jacket in my place. You might as well take it back when you dropped me.”
Mu Mingcheng did not respond. His brows fused together and said with a generous attitude, “You don't need to call me Mr. Mu.”
Gu Jin started and confusedly asked, “Then I should call you what? President Mu? Mu Shao's? Mu–”
“Mingcheng.” Mu Mingcheng interrupted his guess, a light emanated from his golden-framed glasses, “Call me Mingcheng.”
Gu Jin shuddered, Shao Chong's complaint and the original host all flew with goosebumps.
Mingcheng, a very intimate call, even though his face was thick, he still could not say it.
