Mr Gu s First Doting Marriage

Chapter 718: Chapter 719: Gu Qichen, Despicable to the Extreme

Xia Yangyang turned around.

She saw a gemstone bracelet in Gu Qichen’s hand.

The large ruby shone red under the moonlight.

So, it had really been picked up by Gu Qichen. When Xia Yangyang was searching his pockets earlier, he was holding it in his palm.

Was Gu Qichen toying with her just now?

Xia Yangyang was furious.

She walked over in a few strides and held out her hand, “Gu Qichen, give me back the bracelet.”

Gu Qichen replied with a cold laugh, “Alright, I’ll give it to you.”

When Xia Yangyang saw the smirk on the corners of Gu Qichen’s mouth, she had a strong feeling that something was about to go wrong.

Indeed, before Xia Yangyang could reach for it.

Gu Qichen swung his arm and threw the necklace of rubies directly into the swimming pool ahead.

“Gu Qichen, you—”

Xia Yangyang was practically speechless.

This man was despicable to the extreme.

He picked up her bracelet and didn’t return it, and even had the audacity to throw it away.

This was utterly ungentlemanly.

But Gu Qichen showed no sign of remorse, his voice was even cool than the night air: “Xia Yangyang, that’s the price for you disrespecting my feelings.”

Xia Yangyang was utterly speechless. When had she disrespected his feelings?

Was it because she had rejected him earlier, or because she hadn’t taken the ruby necklace he had given her in the past?

This man was becoming more and more unreasonable.

Xia Yangyang was outraged.

But that gemstone necklace was a wedding gift for Phoenix.

No matter what, Xia Yangyang couldn’t lose it.

It didn’t matter if Gu Qichen had thrown the bracelet into a swimming pool.

Even if Gu Qichen had thrown it into the nearby Seine River, Xia Yangyang would have dived in to search for it.

Gu Qichen seemed unprepared for Xia Yangyang to jump into the swimming pool under such circumstances.

It was just a small bracelet.

Did Xia Yangyang really care so much about it?

It was such a cold night and Xia Yangyang was only wearing a thin evening dress.

This outdoor swimming pool was deep and vast, and the light was dim for it was late at night.

Xia Yangyang did not have great chances of finding it now.

Xia Yangyang’s leap into the pool had attracted the attention of many people around.

There were already some people in the garden.

Many held their wine glasses as they came over to watch.

Someone even pointed at Xia Yangyang’s glamorous red figure and exclaimed, “Isn’t this the mermaid from the legend?”

Gu Qichen remained standing where he was.

His fingers tightly clenched.

He didn’t believe that Xia Yangyang could find the bracelet under such conditions.

Gu Qichen remembered that Xia Yangyang could swim, but she wasn’t good at holding her breath underwater.

Time was ticking by second by second.

However, shortly after jumping in, Xia Yangyang had quickly located the bracelet.

Although the visibility was poor under the moonlight, the rubies reflected the moonlight, making them extremely noticeable.

Over the years, Xia Yangyang’s swimming skills had become very proficient.

This was mainly because, while doing a reporting job in the Philippines, she had been swept into the water by an unusual typhoon.

Almost drowning, she was rescued by a colleague.

The colleague was an excellent swimmer, who later taught Xia Yangyang to swim.

Xia Yangyang now held the bracelet and could resurface immediately.

But anger from being toyed by Gu Qichen wasn’t appeased.

A mischievous idea popped into Xia Yangyang’s mind.

Suddenly, she forcefully swept her legs in the water.

Then she slowly sank to the bottom of the pool.

The people who were watching found something was amiss.

The crowd started to stir.

Although Gu Qichen hadn’t joined the spectators up close.

All his focus and attention was on the swimming pool.

Upon realizing something was wrong, he rushed forward immediately.

He saw Xia Yangyang had already fallen into the pool with her eyes closed.

Without a second thought, Gu Qichen jumped into the water.
