Chapter 674: Chapter 675: You Deserved to be Beaten!_1

Gong Juechen continued, ”Youbao, Jingjing just said that the person who came with you should be her disciple, Wuyu. Could it be that Jingjing’s disciple is your fiancée?”

Before Wang Youbao could speak, Li Wuyu was unhappy and complained to Wang Youbao in a whisper, ”Youbao, why does he also call you Youbao?”

Wang Youbao first said to Gong Juechen, ”Indeed, my fiancée is An Jing’s disciple—Li Wuyu.”

Immediately after, Wang Youbao took Li Wuyu aside.

Then, Wang Youbao lowered his voice and explained softly to Li Wuyu, ”I’ve told him several times not to call me ’Youbao,’ but no matter what I say, he doesn’t listen and keeps calling me that. I can’t do anything about it. I can’t exactly sew his mouth shut with a needle and thread, can I?”

Li Wuyu chuckled and also lowered her voice to whisper back, ”Initially, I was the same as him. No matter how much you asked me not to call you ’Youbao,’ I still did it anyway.”

The two had no idea that Gong Juechen had already sneaked up behind them to eavesdrop.

An Jing, who witnessed the whole scene of Gong Juechen sneaking up behind Wang Youbao and Li Wuyu, thought: ”...”

Can you be any more ridiculous?

It’s clear they didn’t want you to hear, yet you still inched closer!

When Wang Youbao heard Li Wuyu say that she, like Gong Juechen, insisted on calling him ’Youbao,’ his ears turned slightly red as he spoke even more softly, ”You’re not like him, I like it when you call me that.”

At first, he hadn’t liked it and found it so nonsensical, but after getting used to it, and now that she had become his beloved, he really liked her calling him that.

Upon hearing Wang Youbao say he liked it, Li Wuyu’s beautiful face immediately turned a slight shade of red.

Just as both Wang Youbao and Li Wuyu felt somewhat embarrassed, yet were basking in the sweetness of the moment, Gong Juechen, who was eavesdropping from behind, suddenly burst out as if he was triggered, ”I heard everything!”

Wang Youbao and Li Wuyu were startled and quickly turned around, only to see Gong Juechen standing right behind them, making it clear that he had overheard their conversation, prompting an immediate ”...” from both of them.

”I heard everything!” Gong Juechen repeated, seemingly agitated. Then, he pointed first at Wang Youbao and then at Li Wuyu, ”Just now, you secretly said, you like her!”

Wang Youbao immediately turned a deep shade of red.

Li Wuyu’s face also flushed red.

They hadn’t said that exactly; they were only talking about how he liked her calling him ’Youbao.’ However, the fact that he liked her was indeed true.

An Jing spoke irritably, ”Gong Juechen, my disciple and Youbao still have their reputations to consider. Besides, they have some skills. If you blurt out their feelings so brazenly and they become angry out of embarrassment and beat you up, I won’t help you.”

After a pause, An Jing added, ”With such insensitivity in your eavesdropping, you would deserve it if you got beaten up!”

Gong Juechen immediately lamented, ”I didn’t intend to eavesdrop. I just wanted to find out if they were talking about introducing a wife to me. Who knew it wasn’t the case? My heart is too wounded.”

An Jing: ”...”

Wang Youbao: ”...”

Li Wuyu: ”...”

Gong Juechen looked disappointedly at Li Wuyu’s beautiful face once more before sighing deeply to the sky, ”Where is my wife? I miss her so much! Everyone else is paired off. I’m not bad looking, so why am I still alone?”
