Xue Xianglan went upstairs and called Gu Yan to tell her she arrived ho safely, putting her mind at ease.
"Finally ho, huh. I thought you were having too much fun to co back."
"I knew it was you who inford him."
"There was no other way. You weren’t making a move, and he was just dawdling. I had to give him a legitimate chance to get close to you."
"You little traitor, so righteous even in betrayal."
"It’s all for your own good. I bet you’re in a good mood right now."
"How do you know that?" Xue Xianglan chuckled silently.
"I know you best. Of course, I know. Your happiness is my happiness. I’m actually doing this for myself, really."
Gu Yan sat cross-legged on the couch, holding the landline phone, chatting with Xue Xianglan. Tang Yuxiu sat next to her, glancing over every now and then. Seeing her smiling, he felt comfortable too.
Xue Xianglan laughed on the other end, "Alright, I’m too lazy to talk more. You rest up and take care of your injury."
"Sure, you get to bed early too."
Gu Yan hung up the phone cheerfully, her smile persistent.
"It’s not like you solved the problem yourself. What are you so happy about?" Young Master Tang asked, puzzled.
"It’s because my best friend resolved her issue that I’m so happy. On my own, I might not be in such a good mood."
"You won are really strange."
As a normal man, Young Master Tang admitted he found it hard to understand.
"Anyway, you’re not a woman, so you don’t need to understand."
Truly understanding a woman’s mind would be strange.
For once, Young Master Tang thought Gu Yan made a lot of sense. It wasn’t sothing he needed to know.
"So, Miss Woman, do you know what ti it is? Aren’t you planning to go upstairs and sleep?" Young Master Tang squinted his eyes slightly and spoke slowly.
Gu Yan glanced at the wall clock; it wasn’t even ten yet.
"It’s not late, no worries." Suddenly, Gu Yan turned her head, eagerly looking at Tang Yuxiu, "Boss, I think my face will be almost healed by tomorrow. I want to go back to work."
Hearing this, Tang Yuxiu frowned unhappily, "How do you know you’ll be better by tomorrow? You really want to work? Even if I let you rest an extra day or two, you’re unwilling."
"I’m really bored at ho. Xiang Lan accompanied all day today, and she got bored too. I’m really fine. I’ll just wear a mask and head to the office tomorrow. Not many people will see."
"Why are you so eager to go back to the office? What, you want to be in the sa place as all the ti?"
Gu Yan rolled her eyes at him, "Boss, you’re overthinking. I just want to practice piano."
It’s not only because of the assessnt that she practiced piano, but also because it beca a habit recently. Suddenly not seeing the piano for a day made her feel uneasy, like sothing was missing.
Tang Yuxiu looked at her with a slightly deeper aning, "You really have a passion for piano that’s not ordinary."
As if she couldn’t live without it, like a concubine, a single day apart feels like three autumns.
Young Master Tang even felt a bit jealous inside.
"When you’ve longed for sothing for many years, and suddenly you have access to it, you’ll find it’s just like a drug. It digs deeper into your heart day by day, making it irresistible, impossible to part with."
That’s what the piano is to Gu Yan.
"You make it sound so true," Young Master Tang pouted, feeling quite unwilling inside. How was he less charming than a piano?
Last ti in his office, this woman pushed him away just for that old piano!
If Gu Yan knew Young Master Tang called that famous piano an old piano, she’d certainly argue with him for three hundred rounds.
"Boss, just agree, will you? I promise if I feel even a bit unwell, I’ll report to you imdiately." Gu Yan raised three fingers, making a pledge.
Young Master Tang arrogantly glanced at her, "Do you narcissistically think I’m worried about whether you’re comfortable?"
Gu Yan blinked, "Isn’t that true?"
"No!" Young Master Tang responded straightforwardly.
Upon hearing it, Gu Yan imdiately grabbed a cushion and threw it over, "Since you’re not worried about at all, whether I go to work tomorrow or not is none of your business!"
Gu Yan was furious, extrely furious. This man was really not cute at all, not even a hint of care like a boyfriend should have.
But on second thought, are they even boyfriend and girlfriend now?
At most, they’re just a pair of enamored individuals sleeping on the sa bed...
Gu Yan suddenly realized they were still unrecognized and unofficial, even less so than being his concubine!
Gu Yan grew even angrier, glaring fiercely at Tang Yuxiu, then grabbed cushions one after another to throw at him several tis before storming upstairs in a fury.
What kind of man only says sweet words to coax people but takes no action at all!
What a jerk!
Tang Yuxiu, hit by those subsequent cushions, was left utterly confused. He didn’t resist, nor did he say anything else. Why was she getting angrier and angrier?
A woman’s heart is hard to fathom. Young Master Tang felt that after spending two days with Gu Yan, his hair might turn a few strands white.
Might as well take on so big cases, not only are they easier to understand than this, but also you can earn quite a bit of money.
Why is he choosing to do sothing he’s not good at?
Gu Yan was upset, and Tang Yuxiu wisely avoided facing the brunt of her anger, watching the news for half an hour before turning off the TV and going upstairs.
When he went up, Gu Yan had just finished her shower and was lying on the bed. Upon seeing him enter, she snorted coldly, pulled the blanket over her head, and refused to look at him.
Tang Yuxiu was still at a loss, grabbing clothes first before heading to shower in the bathroom.
After showering, Gu Yan was still wrapped in the blanket. He walked over and pulled the blanket away, "If you’re mad, then be mad, but why hide your head like that?"
Aren’t you afraid of suffocating yourself, and it’s not even autumn yet. Even if the air conditioning is on in the room, the temperature isn’t low.
Gu Yan coldly snorted, with her back turned to him, making it clear that she didn’t want to see or talk to him.
Tang Yuxiu was a bit frustrated and helpless, "Aren’t you overreacting just because I said I’m not worried about you? I know in my heart whether I’m worried about you or not, and you shouldn’t take what I said in a quarrel seriously."
Gu Yan still ignored him. Initially, she was angry about that, but it wasn’t a big deal since she knew he was joking. But later, thinking deeper, her anger flared uncontrollably.
He talks about only wanting her and liking her, yet he never asks her to be his girlfriend or gives her any title!
Is he still thinking about marrying that wealthy lady?
At this thought, Gu Yan’s anger surged uncontrollably.
"Gu Yan, stop throwing tantrums," Tang Yuxiu said, slightly furrowing his brows as she remained silent.
Gu Yan was lost in her wild thoughts, and his comnt only fueled her anger.
She suddenly sat up from the bed, looking at him furiously, "Do you think I’m unreasonable? Do you think I love making trouble for no reason? Do you find being with unbearable?"
She asked three questions in a row, leaving Tang Yuxiu confused about what she was talking about and feeling inexplicable.
"What do you an by asking that?"
"Just answer!"
Gu Yan’s tone was harsh, and Tang Yuxiu wasn’t in a much better mood either, "I refuse to answer."
"Refuse to answer!" Gu Yan was very dissatisfied, "Is that what you think of , that being with doesn’t make you happy at all?"
"I’ve never said that."
"But you secretly believe it!"
"How could you know what I think in my heart? I said it’s not true, and it’s not true."
"Then why won’t you answer?"
"To , these questions are pointless and aningless, I see no need to answer them."
"But it’s important to , your answer is important to !"
Tang Yuxiu frowned, "Gu Yan, what’s going on with you? Why are you suddenly asking these questions? This fire in you is too strong."
"Does my anger bother you?"
Tang Yuxiu gazed at her but remained silent.
"So that’s it, you don’t really like . Isn’t liking soone supposed to an accepting everything about them? You don’t even know why I’m angry, won’t coax , or ask why. You just say my anger is inexplicable, that’s not how soone behaves when they like soone!"
Gu Yan’s eyes held a trace of sadness, though she tried hard to hide it, much still showed.
Tang Yuxiu listened to her words, and seeing the sorrow in her eyes, his heart suddenly twisted with pain.
"Gu Yan, don’t say things like that. I am very aware of my feelings for you, I’m not mistaken, nor am I blindly judging."
"Of course, that’s you. You’re so rational, but in a relationship, there’s usually no room for reason. Tang Yuxiu, do you really know what truly liking soone ans?"
Tang Yuxiu was silent again.
This was his first ti being emotionally moved in his life, so how could he know what it feels like to like soone? He just felt like he wanted to keep her around him, to see her all the ti. When she wasn’t well, he wasn’t well, and when she was happy, he felt happy too.
To be happy for her happiness, to be sad for her sadness.
Isn’t this the feeling of liking soone?
"I don’t quite understand because this is my first ti, but I’m very clear about my feelings for you, Gu Yan, don’t overthink."
"So what do you take for now? Not a concubine, but not soone else either. You just let live here, stay by your side and not leave, what sense does that make!"
Tang Yuxiu was slightly stunned, unable to speak for a while, "Is that why you’re angry?"
"You’re only realizing this now!" Gu Yan glared at him fiercely.
Tang Yuxiu fell silent.
It really was sudden, it was normal that he didn’t know, right?
Won’s thinking is really divergent, jumping to such aspects all of a sudden left him at a loss for what to do.
Tang Yuxiu’s dark eyes focused intently on her, as if wanting to imrse her, tightly holding on to her.
For a mont, Gu Yan beca sowhat dazed, but then he spoke with utmost seriousness: "Gu Yan, why don’t you understand, I won’t let you leave, which ans you will always be my woman, my only woman!"
