I Regained My Memories and Became Rich After Getting Divorced

Chapter 193: Stomping Song Ling

Gu Dai didn’t deny it and nodded, “Yes.”

Song Ling’s face darkened and he pressed his lips tightly together.

Sarcastically, he said, “When you eagerly followed me around in the past, you never considered me a stranger. And now, right after our divorce, you’ve taken Su Ting as one of your own and distanced yourself from me. 1 bet you two were entangled long before this, weren’t you?”

Gu Dai’s frown deepened. She couldn’t comprehend how, during her amnesia, she had ever fallen for Song Ling.

During her memory loss, she had loved only Song Ling, with every fiber of her being. However, he failed to see or feel it. And when she laid out the truth for him, he refused to believe.

Seeing Song Ling advancing toward her, in a fit of anger, Gu Dai swiftly lifted her leg and stomped hard on his foot.

The stiletto heel of Gu Dai’s shoe was pointed and thin, and she had applied a considerable amount of force.

Feeling the bone-piercing pain, Song Ling gritted his teeth to keep from crying out.

His face turned ashen. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead as he gritted out, “Let go.”

Seeing Song Ling’s state, Gu Dai didn’t torment him further, mainly because the second half of the auction was about to start. She didn’t have time for this prolonged drama.

Gu Dai released her foot and coldly said, “I’ve come to realize you’re genuinely foolish. I’ve explained some matters to you clearly, yet you stubbornly refuse to believe.”

After Gu Dai left, due to the pain in his foot, Song Ling collapsed to the floor. A look of lost flashed in his downcast eyes.

Could what Gu Dai said be true? Did she genuinely love him throughout their three years of marriage? But how does one explain the money she took from his grandfather?

The more Song Ling thought, the more agitated he became. A throbbing headache set in, making him feel as if there was a bomb ticking inside his head, ready to explode.

With trembling hands, he took out a peace talisman from his pocket, held it to his nose, and took a deep, forceful sniff. The light aroma dispelled his inner confusion, and his headache gradually subsided.

Gu Dai took the money from his grandfather and then gave it to that pretty boy, Su Ting. She must have been lying earlier, trying to confuse him with her words.

She was truly cunning; he had underestimated her.

When Song Ling, with his grim expression, entered the auction hall, the event had already started. He immediately spotted Zhou Ci seated next to his spot and inquired coldly, “Why are you sitting here? Where’s Gu Dai?”

Zhou Ci, seeing the dark look on Song Ling’s face, deduced that he must have faced a setback with Gu Dai.

Zhou Ci glanced towards Gu Dai’s seat and responded, “Miss Gu Dai didn’t want to sit with you, so she exchanged seats with me and those next to me.”

Taking a deep breath, Song Ling shot a fierce look at both Gu Dai and Su Ting before coldly taking his seat.

Zhou Ci shook his head in bewilderment. He genuinely didn’t understand Song Ling’s behavior—constantly claiming he didn’t have feelings for Gu Dai, yet persistently seeking her out.

Throughout the second half of the event, every time either Gu Dai or Su Ting placed a bid, Song Ling would immediately counter with his own. The tension between the trio was palpable.

Yet, after each of Song Ling’s bids, both Gu Dai and Su Ting would opt to withdraw, allowing Song Ling to win the item.

Seeing this, Zhou Ci couldn’t help but comment, “The price for each item is now more than ten times its original value. If you continue, aren’t you just throwing your money away?”

Song Ling shot Zhou Ci a cold glance, retorting, “What’s it to you?”

Zhou Ci chose not to advise Song Ling further after the comment. After all, it wasn’t his loss, so why bother going to great lengths for an unappreciative cause?

Song Ling glanced at Gu Dai. Since she dared to deceive him, he would outbid her on every item she desired!

Witnessing Song Ling squander money so recklessly, Gu Dai felt a surge of amusement. Her earlier gloominess also dissipated significantly.

The auctioneer, seeing the sales figures vastly exceeding expectations, was beaming, practically laughing with joy. Excitedly, he announced, “This brings our auction to a close. Thank you to all the gentlemen and ladies for your support!”

As the auctioneer’s words ended, the audience erupted in applause.

Although many of them hadn’t made a purchase, the intense bidding war between Song Ling, Gu Dai, and Su Ting was more exhilarating than actually owning the items.

The auctioneer added, “After our auction, there’s a race happening in the adjacent venue.. Those interested can go have a look!”
