Gu Yan vowed confidently that she would prove herself, and also let others know that Tang Yuxiu’s judgnt of people was not wrong!
Gu Yan and Tang Yuxiu were having a peaceful and harmonious al when soone suddenly barged in, interrupting their dining mood.
"Yo, Young Master Tang finished work and brought his girlfriend out for a al?"
An unrepentant voice ca abruptly, causing Tang Yuxiu to pause in his action of picking a dish, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Gu Yan looked towards the source of the voice and saw Xue Jiarui holding a woman, smiling roguishly, as he walked up to them.
But Gu Yan didn’t have the ti to wonder why Xue Jiarui appeared here, as her attention was drawn to the woman next to him.
Gu Qin!
She really wanted to comnt on how unfortunate she was to run into her nesis even during a al.
Moreover, how did she end up hanging out with Tang Yuxiu’s friend?
First, it was President Liu, and now she’s clinging to Xue Jiarui. Her speed is extraordinary.
Gu Qin was also surprised to see Gu Yan here, but soon her attention was all drawn to the man opposite Gu Yan.
It’s Tang Yuxiu, the man who made her heart flutter at first sight and who she couldn’t forget.
Seeing how Xue Jiarui greeted him, they should be quite familiar.
This realization excited Gu Qin imnsely.
She was right to hook up with Xue Jiarui, as it unexpectedly brought her closer to Tang Yuxiu.
"Young Master Tang, why aren’t you acknowledging ?" Xue Jiarui whistled, teasingly yet with familiarity in his tone.
Tang Yuxiu put down his chopsticks, lifted his eyes, and glanced at him indifferently, "Are you sure you want to disturb my al?"
Xue Jiarui smiled nonchalantly, "How can this be called a disturbance, we’re good brothers, aren’t we? You have a girlfriend now and kept it a secret from . Finally got a chance to et, aren’t you going to introduce her?"
Girlfriend?
Gu Yan heard this term, and seeing that Tang Yuxiu did not object, she felt inexplicably pleased.
Tang Yuxiu crossed his legs, rested his hands on his knees, and said calmly, "Gu Yan, Xue Jiarui."
Gu Yan smiled at Xue Jiarui, "Hello."
It was only then that Xue Jiarui gave Gu Yan a proper look, finding her sowhat familiar, "Aren’t you the lady my sports car accidentally bumped into?"
"That’s ." Gu Yan replied a little embarrassedly.
Xue Jiarui suddenly realized as he recalled the location of their first encounter, "Oh my, you guys have been together all along, Tang Yuxiu you hid it well."
Gu Yan wanted to say that back then she had no relationship with Tang Yuxiu, she was just working for him.
And Tang Yuxiu showed no reaction or expression, he rely lifted his eyes slightly, "Now that you’ve t, you can leave."
Xue Jiarui feigned a hurt expression, "Ah, a guy who forgets friends for a girl, now I’ve finally witnessed it."
"So what, do you have a problem with it?" Tang Yuxiu asked indifferently, showing no emotional fluctuation.
Xue Jiarui quickly shook his head, "Even if I have a problem, I have to keep it to myself, I’m afraid of getting beaten by you."
"If you know that, then hurry up and leave?" Tang Yuxiu’s eyes slightly lifted, those familiar with him knew it indicated that his patience was running out.
Xue Jiarui was sensible, knowing there was plenty of ti in the future, no need to rush, especially since he had already seen the legendary woman who could conquer Tang Yuxiu, it was already a huge gain.
"Alright, I won’t disturb you guys anymore, I’ll take the beauty out for a al." With that, he unabashedly kissed Gu Qin.
Gu Qin looked bashful, but her eyes kept darting towards Tang Yuxiu, who didn’t glance at her once from start to finish.
She couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed, but quickly cheered up again. She believed that with ti, she could definitely get close to Tang Yuxiu.
As for Gu Yan, hearing Xue Jiarui say she’s Tang Yuxiu’s girlfriend, she felt uncomfortable, but for now, she had no choice but to endure.
"Gu Yan, let’s go out for a al next ti when you have ti." There’s no chance for any contact with Tang Yuxiu this ti, only can look forward to the next ti, she must find a legitimate reason to approach next ti.
Isn’t Gu Yan the best stepping stone?
Last ti at President Liu’s, she got nothing beneficial; this ti, she had to compensate no matter what.
Moreover, who wouldn’t be attracted to such an outstanding man as Tang Yuxiu?
Her target is now firmly set on Tang Yuxiu, using whatever thod necessary, she must approach him and replace Gu Yan to beco the woman by his side!
Gu Qin suddenly said such a sentence, leaving Gu Yan completely puzzled, unaware that within such a short ti, Gu Qin’s mind had already concocted countless imaginations for the future.
After she finished speaking, she left with Xue Jiarui, and Gu Yan could still hear their conversation.
"You know each other?"
"Of course, I know her. Gu Yan is my cousin, we’re very close."
"Oh? What a coincidence."
......
Listening to Gu Qin’s words, Gu Yan felt a thousand grass mud horses galloping through her mind, who was close with her!
This lifeti, they’ll never be close!
Damn, it’s truly disgusting.
"Shaless." She muttered to herself.
Tang Yuxiu picked up his chopsticks again, "Who’s shaless?"
"Who else could it be, the one your brother’s hugging. Who’s getting cozy with her! It’s a miracle if we don’t end up fighting, let alone getting close. Just thinking about it makes uncomfortable."
"Who is she?" he asked again.
Gu Yan was slightly taken aback, "You don’t rember her? You two have t."
Tang Yuxiu thought for a mont, "No impression."
If Gu Qin knew Tang Yuxiu’s reaction, she probably would be fuming inside.
"You really have no impression, it’s the one from last ti at Shengshi, she and that President Liu wanted to drag away."
With this reminder, Tang Yuxiu seed to recall, "The woman who said you were money-crazy?"
Money-crazy! Gu Yan realized she had missed the point.
"It’s her," Gu Yan said angrily. Last ti, she joined forces with Mrs. Gu, Li Xiulan, and that President Liu to try to sell her off, she never forgot about it.
"Oh." Tang Yuxiu nodded indifferently.
"By the way, how did your brother end up with her?" Gu Yan asked.
"No idea."
Gu Yan lightly bit her lip and, after so consideration, spoke, "It’s not that I have anything against Gu Qin, but you should advise your brother not to get too close to her. Her speed in switching n is unbelievable, and her character isn’t great. Don’t let your brother get hurt."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yuxiu lifted his gaze to her, his eyes reflecting so kind of brilliance.
"You are advising him because he’s my friend?"
"Yes." Gu Yan nodded, "Just happened to run into the topic, so I thought I’d ntion it."
For so reason, Tang Yuxiu felt slightly happy upon hearing her response.
The fact that she advised his friend because of him, it felt sowhat pleasant.
"Alright, I will tell him, but he’s also a playboy, who will take advantage of whom isn’t certain."
Gu Yan blinked; so, they were similar types of people.
People say that birds of a feather flock together, and that’s exactly the case with Xue Jiarui and Gu Qin, isn’t it?
But Xue Jiarui is also brothers with Tang Yuxiu, so what does this an?
"Boss, are you a playboy?" she suddenly asked.
Tang Yuxiu looked slightly puzzled, "Why ask that?"
"Birds of a feather flock together. Your friend is a playboy, so you?" Could he also be that type at heart?
"What are you thinking? That’s not the way it works; we grew up together, got along well, so we have a friendship. Other than that, there’s no connection."
Gu Yan understood, so that’s the way it is. Tang Yuxiu shouldn’t be the playboy type then.
People with severe OCD and a cleanliness obsession are usually devoted and attentive to relationships too.
After eating, Gu Yan bought so fruits at the supermarket, and the two of them headed straight back to Lixin Villa.
Gu Yan carried the fruits to the kitchen, while Tang Yuxiu sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, casually glanced at Gu Yan’s back as she headed to the kitchen, not paying much attention.
But suddenly, as if struck by a thought, he quickly got up and walked briskly to the kitchen.
Gu Yan placed the fruits on the dining table, first checked the ingredients in the fridge, planning to clean up a bit, then walked into the kitchen to get the trash can.
To her surprise, she found the counter to be a complete ss.
The rice cooker was full of water and a mushy mixture of rice overflowed everywhere. The counter had dried rice porridge stains, and the lid was tossed aside, also stained with the porridge.
What happened here?
She just overslept for one night, and the power was out for one night. Why is it like this when she cos back?
Could the house have been burgled and they used their rice cooker?
Impossible, Lixin Villa District has electronic surveillance, strangers can’t get in.
Plus, the villa’s security system is intact, how could it be burglarized?
Besides, who would ignore stealing anything and just focus on ruining their rice cooker?
While Gu Yan was pondering, Tang Yuxiu walked in like a gust of wind, saw the miserable sight of the rice cooker which to him was unbearable, and his ears turned slightly red in embarrassnt and regret.
Thinking back, he should have cleaned up before, or at least told You Shuyang to tidy up when fixing the circuits. How could he forget!
Looking at Tang Yuxiu’s reaction, Gu Yan hesitantly asked, "Boss, was this your doing?"
Tang Yuxiu felt uncomfortable; it was a first in his life to make porridge turn out like this and fry the circuits — truly unprecedented.
He really didn’t want to admit it.
However, without him saying anything, paired with his rare embarrassed expression, Gu Yan was absolutely certain.
"Boss, why were you cooking porridge? And so much of it, if you wanted porridge, you could’ve asked to make it for you." Gu Yan was puzzled. Why would such a young master, who doesn’t lift a finger, make porridge himself, couldn’t he just ask soone?
At this mont, Tang Yuxiu didn’t want to speak.
It wasn’t for himself; it was clearly for her, and back then when they were both giving each other the cold shoulder, he wasn’t about to ask.
"No wonder the power went out last night. The way you cooked it, it overflowed and burned the circuits. This rice cooker is done for. Rember to buy a new one after work tomorrow."
She did find it curious how such a big and luxurious villa area could suddenly have a power outage because of a circuit failure, turns out it was caused by Young Master Tang himself.
