Chapter 53 - 52: Pulling out a tooth, it’s a bit painful



After handing over the car keys to the doorman, Gu Heng leisurely stretched and told Fang Xun, who had just stepped out of the passenger side, "I’m heading back to my room first. Bring the therapy tools to the therapy room later. I didn’t get a chance to do it last night, so I’ll make up for it today."

Without waiting for her response, Gu Heng, hands in pockets, walked towards the living quarters under the envious gaze of the doorman.

Meanwhile, Fang Xun knew all too well what was going to happen in the therapy room soon...

She touched the pendant on her chest...

Having already accepted Gu Heng’s confession gift and 50,000 yuan, she was now his short-term girlfriend...

As a girlfriend, of course, she had to fulfill her girlfriend duties...

Legitimate and legal...

......

......

In the therapy room...

The 24-hour continuous electronic aromatherapy gave the small room a touch of fresh and elegant charm...

An ancient-style screen plus peep-proof glass and an artificial lake outside the door created an atmosphere of tranquility and peace...

Having changed into the therapy-specific large shorts, Gu Heng lay shirtless on the therapy bed, browsing TikTok, quietly waiting for Fang Xun’s arrival...

"Creak"...

The therapy room door was pushed open, followed by the sound of footsteps coming closer...

Without looking up, Gu Heng continued watching a dancing influencer on TikTok and softly said, "Just put the stuff down and rest for a bit."

"Hmm..."

Fang Xun’s voice was very gentle...

So gentle that the background music on Gu Heng’s phone could easily drown out her voice...

Becoming somewhat puzzled, Gu Heng looked up, and his gaze lingered...

Compared to the unattainable TikTok influencers, the Fang Xun in front of him was ten times more alluring...

Perhaps understanding Gu Heng’s preferences, she had changed back into her black professional suit and the tight-fitting skirt that enveloped her shapely legs in black stockings.

Isn’t this real-life professional Cos Play better than TikTok?

Originally, Gu Heng had planned to let her rest a bit, but now it seemed she was fully prepared. Why rest at all now?

With that thought, Gu Heng straightforwardly said, "Don’t bother resting now, start by applying some essential oil and give me a back massage."

Hearing Gu Heng’s instructions, Fang Xun showed not the slightest resistance but actually seemed rather pleased...

Why was Gu Heng so eager?

Wasn’t it because she was charming?

On the way back just now, she had thought it through...

Setting aside the high price Gu Heng had offered, much more than her quarterly salary, what was more important was...

After what happened between them, even if there was no emotional foundation, there was some physical foundation, right?

With this connection, if she pushed a little more, she might transition from a short-term contract girlfriend to an official girlfriend...

When a smart woman knows exactly what she wants, her actions fully reflect that understanding, and Fang Xun was such a woman...

...

Just as Fang Xun was approaching with the essential oil and Gu Heng was preparing to close his eyes and enjoy the therapy, an annoying phone call came in...

Seeing the caller ID on the phone, Fang Xun couldn’t help but frown and decisively rejected the call.

But before she could put down the phone, it rang again...

Just as Fang Xun was about to reject the call again and turn off the phone, Gu Heng said, "Go ahead and take it if it’s important. I’m not in a rush here."

Hearing Gu Heng’s words, Fang Xun hesitated for two seconds but still chose to answer the call...

On the other end of the phone, a voice that sounded honest and excited spoke up, "Xun, these past days I’ve discussed with my family. My parents are planning to sell our old house in the hometown, which could probably fetch 300,000 yuan. Together with what we’ve saved up over the years, we should be able to scrape together a down payment of 1.2 million yuan."

The therapy room was very quiet.

So quiet that even though she hadn’t turned on the speakerphone, Gu Heng could clearly hear the voice on the other end...

If he wasn’t mistaken...

That would likely be the "already broken-up" boyfriend Fang Xun mentioned...

Not earlier nor later, the call had to come at this time, instantly igniting Gu Heng’s sense of taboo and curiosity, making him inadvertently perk up his ears to listen...

And Fang Xun...

Hearing the excited voice of her boyfriend on the phone, she didn’t know why, but suddenly felt a sense of nausea...

If this had been shared early in their relationship, she might have felt genuinely happy, but now, there was no such feeling in her heart, just standing quietly by the therapy bed...

"Xun, are you listening?"

"Hey, little Xun!"

Listening to the continuous calling on the other side of the phone, Fang Xun frowned and took a deep breath, "Ji Zhong, tell your parents not to sell the house. Keep it for their retirement. They’ve worked hard all their lives, and it’s not worth it to have to sell their house and land just so their son can get married.

We’re not getting married anymore."

"???"

"What do you mean by that?"

"It means exactly what it says, we’re not getting married, let’s break up."

The tone was calm yet resolute.

Having said that, without waiting for any response, she hung up immediately, then turned off her phone, with the actions flowing smoothly...

Gu Heng, who was still keen on gossiping, couldn’t help but open his eyes, "Why suddenly decide to break up?"

All of a sudden, the burst damage buff was gone...

"Why not break up? Keep it for the New Year?"

Fang Xun’s tone revealed a chilliness she had never shown to Gu Heng before...

"Didn’t you say you started dating him since college? That should be quite a few years, right? To break up so abruptly?"

"A few years? To be precise, it would be 6 years and 8 months."

Listening to Fang Xun recount the duration of 6 years and 8 months in a detached tone, Gu Heng couldn’t help but click his tongue...

Wow, nearly seven years and to just break it off like that, without dragging it out, that woman is really heartless...

Seeing Gu Heng’s expression, Fang Xun chuckled, looking into his eyes, "Do you think I’m too heartless?"

Gu Heng didn’t speak, but his silence gave away his answer.

"Actually, I had been thinking of breaking up for two or three years now, but just like I mentioned earlier, we’ve been together for so long, it was hard to let go, so we kept dragging it out until now.

This time, I decided to break up more because I was provoked by you."

Gu Heng: "???"

How could she suddenly blame me? I had no intention of ruining their relationship!

Better to dismantle ten temples than to destroy one marriage...

Am I really such a beast now?

Fang Xun continued explicitly: "Over these years, my friends and close girls have gotten married one after another, and those who aren’t married live lives a hundred times better than mine.

Moreover, most of them don’t have the abilities and income that I do.

Some of them earn just a few thousand a month, but they flaunt designer bags and luxury goods on social media. Sometimes I wonder, am I worse than them? Why should I live such a hard life? All the money I earn is saved up, considering marriage, buying a house, and a series of nerve-wracking things...

It wasn’t until today, when I received your 50,000 yuan, that I fully understood.

Why should I be a good woman? What did being a good woman, seen as considerate and sensible by others, get me?

Aside from making me unable to afford clothes, jewelry, and bags that I like, it got me nothing.

I used to live in the eyes of others, but now I want to live for myself, even if others are superficially polite to me and call me a bitch behind my back, I no longer care.

I only care about whether my future life can be more comfortable."

Listening to her words...

Gu Heng didn’t know how to respond for a moment...

Fang Xun said it was because he had provoked her, and he couldn’t deny it...

But in fact, the seeds had already taken root in her heart, his interference was merely watering them...

Even without him, Fang Xun would have soon found a reason to convince herself...

But he still felt somewhat upset...

Isn’t it said that the two greatest joys of a man are to corrupt the virtuous and to persuade harlots to turn virtuous?

If he had completed one of these, why did he still feel so miserable?

Thinking this, Gu Heng turned over and after some contemplation, gently spoke, "I can’t promise more, but if you agree, from now on I will give you 50,000 yuan every month, and you only need to fulfill the girlfriend duties occasionally.

Of course, just duties, definitely no girlfriend privileges."

Originally, he had only planned to be her boyfriend for one day and then make a clean break, but now if he didn’t do something to redeem his fall...
