Gu Wen thought more and more that he was right.
Rong Wen wanted a son, she would not give him one, and the son would not follow him either, so he was now making a move towards her side.
The two of them were now in a real "competitive relationship".
Forget about the real estate agent cards.
She would have to be more vigilant from now on. That lone wolf had already started taking action in secret!
So...
When Cang Ling brought the cold spring water into the room, he didn't know if it was his illusion, but he vaguely felt that Shang Xi glared at him.
?
After feeding the cold spring water to the cub, Shang Xi followed him out.
In the corridor.
Gu Wen's nerves unconsciously tensed up. Every time this woman followed him out, it was because she had something to say, and most of the time, it was not good news.
Sure enough.
Shang Xi frowned and handed him the cards.
Gu Wen didn't really understand the minds of pure human females. He frowned for a moment before saying, "Is this too much trouble? Are you blaming me for not directly giving you the property deed to sign?"
After all, if he gave her cards, she would still have to run around everywhere to see houses.
"What are you talking about?" Shang Xi frowned. She felt that every time this werewolf opened his mouth, he was beyond her expectations.
The generation gap between them was too big. She simply got straight to the point with a rare solemn expression: "I won't beat around the bush, Mr. Gu. Don't try to buy me over with material things. Not to mention houses, even if you gave me the whole world, I still wouldn't give you the child. That's my attitude."
Gu Wen was briefly stunned.
Soon after, his dark eyes sank and he gritted his teeth and said, "You think I gave you the cards to buy a house because I want to buy you over and get the cub?"
"Isn't that so?" Shang Xi couldn't think of any other reason he had.
"Of course not!"
"I have plenty of houses here, as many as you want. Don't be so spineless that as soon as someone chases you, you run off with them if they give you a house."
Shang Xi was puzzled by his words.
First of all, Rong Wen hadn't given her a house. Even if he had and she was moved by it, would that be such a dangerous bad thing?
Also.
"What does this have to do with Mr. Gu? From what you said, I shouldn't take his house, I should take yours?"
"I don't understand what you mean by 'spineless' and 'running off with someone'. I'm single now. It would be very normal for me to like him and be with him if I did, right?"
She stared at him with calm eyes.
Looking into the woman's clear eyes, Gu Wen was unusually lost for words. Slowly, the whole wolf gradually sobered up.
Ever since he found out about Rong Wen's existence that morning, something had been off. He had fallen into a state of restless anxiety. He extremely disliked Rong Wen, even seeing him as an enemy.
But what was his relationship with him?
Even if Shang Xi really was attracted to that Rong Wen and entered a relationship with him, what business was that of his?
Shang Xi was currently single. She was not his mate. She had the right to date, or even marry, someone else.
When Gu Wen thought of this, he stopped talking and walked away.
He had been a little incoherent.
Who Shang Xi liked was none of his business.
Who she wanted to be with was her freedom.
The two of them only needed to take good care of the cub, that was all.
That was what he thought, but the result was that he didn't sleep all night.
When the morning sunlight shone into the room, he heard the movement in the house beginning, and he pressed on his brow before washing up and going downstairs.
On the first floor living room sofa.
Cang Ling hadn't returned to his room to sleep all night. He was lying there reeking of alcohol, his face showing a hint of decadence. It was unclear how much he had drunk.
Gu Wen frowned, "You're reliant on alcohol now?"
"Family head, alcohol is a good thing." Cang Ling smiled and said.
He closed his eyes and muttered softly, "Only when I drink can I see her..."
The pure human female who had named him. He had lost her five years ago.
"I really envy you, family head. Your mate..." he hiccuped, "is still alive."
Gu Wen wanted to say that Shang Xi was not his mate.
In a sense, he was gnawed at by loneliness just like Cang Ling.
Cang Ling once had a pure human mate. The two were truly in love, but the woman died accidentally.
As for himself? He had the most intimate relationship possible with Shang Xi, but she was not his mate, and there was no mate's love between them.
Werewolves only have one mate for life. Cang Ling's long and painful life was only just beginning.
As for himself, he was slightly better off than Cang Ling. He only faced a lifetime of loneliness.
But Cang Ling had received his mate's love before.
He might never obtain that in his lifetime.
But he was still more fortunate than Cang Ling in that he still had the cub.
Like right now for instance, he could smell the scent of milk coming from the cub's body at the top of the stairs.
As well as that unique faint floral fragrance belonging only to that woman.
She already had someone she was interested in, that pure human named Rong Wen.
He didn't expect that this fact would cause him a sleepless night, and now his heart ached dully.
An uncontrollable panic came over him.
He cared.
He cared a lot.
When he saw Shang Xi appear at the top of the stairs wearing a light colored dress, the sound of her high heels stepping on his heart again and again, he confirmed one fact.
He was sick.
