Chapter 732: Planning a Set-up
“What? Break up Gu Shaoting and his wife?” Qin Zhen looked at Charlene in surprise.
“Yes, you heard right. That’s what I said.” Charlene replied.
“Don’t tell me that you want Gu Shaoting to divorce his wife so you can take her place?” Qin Zhen’s tone was slightly mocking.
“Brother Gu doesn’t like me. He probably won’t like me even after he’s divorced.” Charlene could never compare to Shu Pan in his eyes.
“Charlene, wake up. Don’t pursue a married man. If he really left her for you, he may leave you for someone else one day. Besides, Gu Shaoting loves his wife very much. Why must you ruin their relationship?” Qin Zhen could not help but try to dissuade Charlene.
“Shut up. I know my reasons and I know what I’m doing.” Charlene said anxiously. “I’m just not willing to accept it. I need to teach them a lesson to calm the anger in my heart.”
“Charlene…” How did the demure woman he knew become like this?
“Are you going to help me or not? Just tell me. I’ll find other ways if you’re not willing to help me.” Charlene took a step back in order to move forward. She looked at Qin Zhen eagerly.
“Why do you need to do this?” Qin Zhen said helplessly. Charlene just looked at him.
“There are so many outstanding people around you. Why are you so hung up on Gu Shaoting?”
Qin Zhen couldn’t help but envy Gu Shaoting. Why was he so charming that so many women liked him?
“If I can’t have him, I won’t let others have him too.” Charlene said fiercely.
“Alright, I’ll create some kind of misunderstanding, but it’s up to them whether they will break up.” Qin Zhen acceded.
“Great, thanks.” Charlene said happily.
“What do I get in return for helping you?” Qin Zhen suddenly started bargaining.
“What do you want?” Charlene raised the tone of her voice towards the end of her sentence.
“You. You’ll go out with me if this matter succeeds.” Qin Zhen replied.
“We’ll talk about it after we succeed.” Charlene said indifferently after taking a sip of her coffee, like what Qin Zhen said had nothing to do with her.
“Then wait for my good news.” Qin Zhen nodded.
Qin Zhen felt that the matter wasn’t difficult. Creating some kind of misunderstanding was easy and could also test their love.
If Gu Shaoting and his wife loved and trusted each other enough, they would never break up. The whole thing depended on them.
Qin Zhen didn’t feel guilty either. He sought out and approached Gu Shaoting at the banquet with a purpose anyway. He wanted to get more information about Charlene from him.
That was why he took the initiative to get to know Gu Shaoting.
The wheels in Qin Zhen’s mind kept turning. What could he do to achieve the desired effect?
“Thank you for helping me vent my anger. I already feel much better.” Charlene suddenly smiled. She couldn’t wait to see them quarrel and break up.
After Qin Zhen and Charlene parted ways, he immediately hired a private detective and offered a high price for information about Gu Shaoting in two days.
As Sun Tzu said, “If you know thy enemy and thyself, you’ll never be defeated.”
Qin Zhen felt that he had to understand Gu Shaoting and his past before he could come up with a good plan.
He didn’t want to fail because if he did, Charlene would probably ignore him in the future.
Indeed, money made the world go round. A stack of information about Gu Shaoting was soon delivered to Qin Zhen.
He read the file slowly. Suddenly, he saw a photo. It was her?
So, she and Gu Shaoting had such a story. It was truly unbelievable.
Seeing her photo, a plan suddenly took shape in his mind.
