    ## Chapter 110: Provocation

    The piercing sound of hooves exploded in Lin Sui’s ears. He jolted and instinctively took a step to the side. Almost the next second, a brown horse stopped where he had just been standing.

    Lin Sui’s forehead instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

    If he hadn’t dodged quickly just now, he would probably be on the ground by now.

    Being hit by a horse weighing several hundred pounds wouldn’t be fun.

    Lin Sui raised his head and realized that the rider was someone he knew—Xiao Yao.

    Lin Sui, who initially thought it was an accident, suddenly had some suspicions.

    After all, this person seemed to be very unfriendly towards him, as he could tell from how he deliberately led others to exclude him before.

    But now, they were on camera. No matter how crazy the other person was, he wouldn’t attack him so blatantly, right?

    Lin Sui shook his head, banishing those conspiracy theories.

    Gu Nian’s heart almost jumped out of his chest when he saw this. He ran over in a few steps, grabbed Lin Sui’s hands, and checked him up and down, only letting out a sigh of relief after confirming that he wasn’t injured.

    He turned around, looking at Xiao Yao, who had a smug look in his eyes, and said in a chilling voice, “Apologize.”

    Xiao Yao laughed nonchalantly and said carelessly, “Sorry.”

    The three words were light and insincere, and he even remained seated on the horse, looking down at Lin Sui, showing no remorse for almost hurting someone.

    Not only Gu Nian, but even the cameraman next to him couldn’t help but frown, and subtly turned the camera towards Xiao Yao.

    [WTF who is this guy? He’s too arrogant!]

    [I was really scared just now. If Sui Sui had reacted a little slower, he would have been knocked down!]

    [This person is disgusting, doing something wrong and not even apologizing.]

    [This person seems to be a top dog in the rock music scene. He usually likes to step on Sui Sui to elevate himself, but now he’s doing it openly.]

    [The person upstairs must be a brain-dead fan of Lin Sui. Does my Yao-ge need to step on a beauty streamer?]

    [Sui fans are really good at gilding their own faces. If we’re talking about musical talent, Lin Sui is only worthy of shining Yao-ge’s shoes.]

    [The person upstairs is speaking too harshly. Make sure you know that this is Lin Sui’s special, go spew your crap in your own live stream, it’s bad luck here.]

    [What Yao-ge? Wasn’t he still below Sui Sui in the music blogger rankings last time? He’s incompetent and blames the road for being uneven.]

    [My Sui is just handsome, so what? He’s good-looking and talented, some people should stay away.]

    [Didn’t Xiao Yao already apologize? It should have been an accident, right? Sui fans are too aggressive.]

    [The person upstairs is reeking of hired help, that’s quite a big label to slap on.]

    [Yao fans, stop trying to whitewash it. Wasn’t Xiao Yao marketing himself as a good equestrian just now? Now it’s become an “accident”?]

    In the live stream, the two fanbases and the hired trolls were arguing fiercely, and the atmosphere between the parties involved was no less intense.

    Specifically, Xiao Yao was unilaterally provoking, Gu Nian was coldly considering buying the platform and banning this person when he got back, and Lin Sui was wondering where he had offended Xiao Yao.

    He really couldn’t imagine that someone could easily do something that could harm someone else’s life for the sake of profit.

    Seeing that Lin Sui was ignoring him, the provocative expression on Xiao Yao’s face became a little unstable, and he turned to trying to provoke Gu Nian’s anger, “You don’t need to be so angry, anyway, you already have a new fiancé, right? You and Lin Sui should be getting divorced soon, right?”

    As soon as he said that, Gu Nian’s face changed drastically, and his eyes became even more fierce.

    Lin Sui also stiffened, and suddenly remembered the Duan Miao he had deliberately forgotten, pursing his lips and lowering his eyes.

    Before he impulsively ran away, Duan Miao’s grandfather had indeed hinted, no, should I say clearly stated, that he hoped Gu Nian and Duan Miao would get married.

    Although Gu Nian had firmly refused at the time, after experiencing how Duan Miao could miraculously intersect with Gu Nian no matter what, Lin Sui was a little unsure if there would be any divine intervention in this matter.

    Xiao Yao thought he had seen through the truth, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

    He wasn’t just spouting nonsense. His own family had some power, although it was far from Gu Nian’s level, he knew some news.

    For example, at the Duan family’s young master’s return banquet, the head of the Duan family publicly extended an olive branch of marriage to Gu Nian. Xiao Yao didn’t actually know if Gu Nian had agreed or not, but he heard that Lin Sui left early afterwards, and was crying when he left, so he automatically filled in all the details.

    He even came up with a reason for Gu Nian himself. Although Lin Sui had a good personality and was good-looking, his family was just a nouveau riche, which was detrimental to his future development. When he was paralyzed, being a caretaker was okay, but now that Gu Nian had recovered, he naturally looked down on Lin Sui.

    In comparison, the Duan family’s young master came from a prestigious family and was a graduate of a famous university, which could obviously bring more benefits.

    Xiao Yao himself was a person who put profit above all else, and he judged Gu Nian by his own standards, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. Over time, he also regarded his own speculation as the truth, so he dared to say it so confidently.

    In order to trample Lin Sui underfoot, he deliberately said this in front of the camera.

    Weren’t most of Lin Sui’s fans CP fans? Knowing that they were about to get divorced, Lin Sui was still clinging to Gu Nian to hype up their CP and leech off him, they would definitely unfollow him and turn against him.

    Even if they didn’t, it didn’t matter, he had already arranged for hired help to control the narrative. It wasn’t in vain that he deliberately played the fool and provoked him.

    After this, he didn’t believe that Lin Sui could still stand up.

    As Xiao Yao expected, his words caused a huge storm.

    [I’m really laughing out loud, is it because the Xiao person’s popularity is not working so he’s cursing others to divorce?]

    [Then I’m really sorry, our Gu CEO has a good relationship with Sui Sui, they secretly did things last night that they wouldn’t let me see]

    [The biggest joke of the year—Gu Nian doesn’t like Lin Sui]

    [It would be more believable to say that Sui Sui dumped Gu CEO, Gu CEO looks like he can’t live without his wife, a love brain, okay?]

    [Other people’s CEOs: Man, you’ve caught my attention.

    Gu CEO: Wife, wife, where are you, look at me, look at me]

    [Suspected peacock nature exposed]

    [But listening to what Xiao Yao suddenly said, the atmosphere between Sui Sui and Gu CEO was indeed very strange at the beginning]

    [Can the CP fan filter be any thicker? Gu Nian is at least a noble young master from a prestigious family, in your mouths he’s just a lapdog]

    [Don’t pay attention to them, CP fans have no brains, anyone with eyes can see that Lin Sui is clinging to Gu Nian, okay?]

    [I’m curious, which clear-eyed person saw Gu Nian disliking Sui Sui?]

    [I opened Gu Nian’s autobiography and checked, there’s no business warfare in it, every page is scribbled with the four words “I’m a CEO”, I couldn’t sleep anyway, I looked at it carefully for half the night, and saw from the cracks between the words that the whole book was filled with the four words “Wife, look at me!”]

    Gu Nian looked at Xiao Yao, who dared to sow discord between him and Lin Sui’s relationship, as if he were looking at a dead man. He suddenly smiled and generously admitted, “That’s right, Lin Sui and I had a fight.”

    The smile on Xiao Yao’s face deepened, and he glanced contemptuously at Lin Sui, who couldn’t see his expression.

    As expected, he knew that Gu Nian would never fall for a vase with no background.

    He was about to say something to hit him when Gu Nian suddenly changed the subject and continued in a serious tone.

    “I made him sad, and he’s ignoring me, so I can only chase after him myself.”

    Gu Nian showed a faint look of sadness, rolled up his sleeves and revealed the famous watch on his wrist, “This was a gift from him, he’s ignoring me, so I can only miss him when I see it.” He also pulled open the jacket given by the production team, revealing the shirt underneath, “This shirt was a gift from him, he said I looked best in it, but unfortunately he’s no longer willing to take it off for me.”

    Lin Sui, who was lost in thought, suddenly felt something was wrong: !!!

    Lin Sui raised his eyes, his eyes filled with disbelief.

    When did he take off Gu Nian’s clothes!

    This was simply slander!

    Gu Nian didn’t seem to notice Lin Sui’s accusations, and on his own, he listed all the things on his body that could be given away, either given by Lin Sui or liked by Lin Sui.

    Lin Sui, the person involved, said: Outrageous, very outrageous!

    He didn’t even know when he contracted Gu Nian’s wardrobe.

    Gu Nian talked for three minutes straight before stopping reluctantly, looking at Xiao Yao and sighing, “I didn’t expect you to find out so quickly, but don’t worry, Lin Sui and I are almost reconciled, we were last night…”

    Halfway through, as if suddenly thinking of something, Gu Nian stopped talking.

    The expression on Xiao Yao’s face went from red to black, and then turned blue. Now, looking at Gu Nian, he looked like he was looking at something dirty.

    How could there be someone in this world who even picked the perfume that others liked to spray!

    Was he a peacock!

    Where was your CEO’s dignity! Did you like being a lapdog so much!

    Xiao Yao desperately questioned in his heart.

    Gu Nian’s trick of talking nonsense was very effective. Not only did Xiao Yao shut up, but the live stream, which was full of gunpowder, also fell silent.

    The number in the upper right corner had exceeded 500,000, but the comments were quiet, with a sense of calm before the storm.

    A few seconds later, screams of all kinds erupted like a volcano.

    [I’ve been a professional lapdog for ten years, I even booked a hotel for my goddess and someone else, I thought I was lapdog enough, but I didn’t expect to still be convinced today]

    [I didn’t expect that Gu CEO usually had everything managed by Sui Sui, what an extreme henpecked husband]

    [I’m broken. I thought Gu CEO and Sui Sui had a bloody romance between a domineering CEO, but I didn’t expect it to be a guide for a scheming puppy to please its owner]

    [Gu dog, you’re really a dog!]

    [Although, Gu CEO looks so cute when he’s so serious, he’s really so serious and wronged]

    [No wonder my Sui was dizzy and turned around at once, who can resist this]

    [Although, I’m more curious about what happened last night]

    [It’s nothing else, mainly concerned about the relationship status of the young couple, definitely not because I want to see it]

    [The person upstairs is too hypocritical, I confess, I just want to see it, I’m a pervert]

    [Hey, Sui Sui will be shy again when he sees it, he’s already injured his leg today, need I say more (you should understand what I’m saying)]

    Gu Nian showed off his love in front of countless people, and was too lazy to look at Xiao Yao’s changing face. He took Lin Sui’s hand and left with his head held high, like a victorious rooster.

    It took Lin Sui a long time to digest everything, and he asked a question that went straight to the soul.

    “When did I do those things?”
