Chapter 438 The Playboy's Divorced Woman 34
Gu Shenbai was able to get out of bed after two days of rest.
He wanted to see the Cai family in prison in person.
Gu Shenbai never expected to meet Cai Kun and Cai Yue like this in prison.
Gu Shenbai had known Cai Kun for a long time; Cai Kun was one of the few friends of his who were not from official families.
When the two were together, Cai Kun did not try to curry favor with him because of his status.
Cai Yue was outgoing and unlike most women. She followed them around all day, and they experienced almost every kind of fun activity in the capital.
Gu Shenbai admitted that when Cai Kun asked him for help with Cai Yue's marriage, he felt somewhat guilty for refusing, but it was nowhere near that point.
When Gu Shenbai appeared, Cai Kun's eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look at him.
Gu Shenbai's body is still very weak, and he can barely stand. When he arrived in prison, someone immediately brought him a stool to sit on.
Hiring someone to commit murder should never have warranted the entire family being imprisoned.
But this matter is different when it involves Gu Shenbai and Xie Qingyu.
“I never expected this…” Gu Shenbai looked at Cai Kun.
He still remembers how excited he was when Cai Kun brought his men up, thinking that he hadn't misjudged the man and that he had chosen the right brothers.
Who knows... who knows he was only doing it for himself.
“Since things have come to this, I don’t want to say anything more. If you had agreed to take Xiaoyue back then, none of this would have happened,” Cai Kun said quickly.
The bandits weren't originally targeting Gu Shenbai; it was just bad luck that they got there.
"It's ridiculous. You yourselves organized a martial arts contest to choose a husband, and when you couldn't accept the result, you schemed against others. In the end..." Gu Shenbai couldn't finish his sentence. How come Xie Qingyu was the one who got hurt?
“This was my own idea. I just didn’t want Xiaoyue to marry someone she didn’t like. I thought she would be happier if she married someone she liked, even if she was a concubine and she wouldn’t know anything about it.” Cai Kun took the blame upon himself.
Because of this incident, his status as the martial arts champion is now completely useless, and he is basically doomed to die.
But the Cai family still has hope, so he has to do his best to fight for it.
"Ridiculous, so you made that request while Qingyu and I were still unconscious, and the first thing Qingyu heard when she woke up was that you wanted to take me a concubine?" Gu Shenbai was somewhat agitated.
He later recalled countless times how distressed Xie Qingyu must have felt when she woke up in bed and heard about this.
She was already planning to take a concubine for him while he was still unconscious.
Did she really lose faith in him and want to die so that she would have nothing to do with him anymore when she took out the divorce papers at the end of her life?
Gu Shenbi felt a sharp pain in his heart every time he thought of this. The divorce agreement he kept close to his body was like a needle, pricking him constantly. It was only through this pain that he could feel that he was still alive.
"I'm sorry for what I did to you." Cai Kun adopted a very humble attitude.
He understood Gu Shenbai's soft heart, and his current state was an expectation that Gu Shenbai would let the Cai family off the hook out of consideration for their past relationship.
Unfortunately, Gu Shenbai isn't buying it now.
His senses were shut down, and his emotions raged within him with no outlet.
In this matter, he blamed himself the most.
