Still, Ye Kan recovered quickly. There might not be someone prettier in the imperial capital, but that didn't mean there wasn't someone prettier in the world."Almost got caught up in your thinking. Although there's no one prettier than you in the imperial capital, there are plenty of women who pursue our boss from all over the world!"For example, one of the top five hackers in the world, Nine. Each of her bills is in the tens of millions of dollars and each year, she only accepts three assignments."It's said that she's a top-notch legendary beauty. She's got beauty and skill!"Gu Jiuci raised her brows lightly. Who would have thought that Ye Kan had such a positive impression of her alias?She held back her laugh and asked with pretend jealousy, "Is this Nine really so amazing? You've boasted her to the heavens!""There's no need to boast about Nine. By herself, she chased back hundreds of millions of losses for the Huo Corporation and it only took her less than half an hour.
Many years later, Ye Kan, who finally knew the entire truth, would ridicule Gu Jiuci in this way: "What kind of oddball fights themselves for a man?"But he wouldn't say that right now."Humph... that might not be the case. For a woman like you who lacks self-possession, it would only take a month to get sick of you."Ye Kan purposely spoke mysteriously to dampen her enthusiasm.Gu Jiuci raised her brows and glared, making a fierce expression. Pointing at Ye Kan, she said to the devil, "Chairman Huo, your wife is being bullied. Send him to Africa!""You wish! The Huo Corporation doesn't have any business in Africa! You've read too many novels about arrogant chairmen, haven't you?"Ye Kan shot back self-satisfyingly."Young Master Ye, although we don't have any business in Africa, we do have business at the North Pole..."At this moment, Zhan Ying thoughtfully offered him a reminder. Ye Kan's expression froze and he immediately felt short of breath."Given the boss' present foo
That afternoon, the moment Gu Jiuci returned to the classroom, Xu Yun'er sidled up and asked with feigned concern, "Ci, did Huo Mingche bother you today? Did you have enough to eat?"Gu Jiuci pushed down the desire to immediately expose Xu Yun'er and continued to play along."He didn't. We got along very well. I think it can be said that we are gradually moving onto the right path."When she finished speaking, Gu Jiuci purposely stared at Xu Yun'er's face. "This person just had to come and be a masochist."Under the table, Xu Yun'er's hand clenched into a fist, but she continued smiling prettily as she pretended to be very happy."Is that so! Then that's great. You two can finally interact like a normal engaged couple. I'm really happy for you! Since you two are already a family, why don't you drag Mr. Huo into our family group chat? We can help you in the group and increase your affection, wouldn't you say so?"Xu Yun'er's body leaned toward Gu Jiuci, appearing very impatient.
Gu Jiuci did not sleep at all during the entire class. She rested her head on her hands and stared at the blackboard absentmindedly.Lu Xiaosang thought that Gu Jiuci was finally trying to show respect to the teacher. But only Gu Jiuci knew that during this lesson, she had stolen glances at Si Chen a hundred times; however, she had not looked at her even once.All through class, she could not stop focusing on Si Chen. She wanted to find an opportunity to apologize to her.Gu Jiuci had just stood up when she realized that Si Chen was pretending as though she did not exist. Si Chen walked toward Yu Gu with a smile on her face.When Gu Jiuci saw this, she knitted her brows furiously.In their previous lives, she and Si Chen had comforted each other in their common misery. They had both been deceived by scumbags.However, the difference between her and Si Chen was that Si Chen and Yu Gu had been betrothed since they were young. But Yu Gu had been completely infatuated, body and soul,
Gu Jiuci rushed over to Xu Yun'er's desk. At that moment, Yu Gu squeezed past Xu Yun'er as if there was nobody there and sat down. Warmly, he began explaining math problems to Xu Yun'er.Gu Jiuci reached out and snatched the pen from Yu Gu's hand. She threw it on the ground and scolded him sternly. "Have you no shame?!"The expressions of the two, who had just been working on math problems, suddenly changed. Yu Gu promptly stood up and said firmly, "Gu Jiuci, who are you yelling at?!"His shouting caught the attention of all of their classmates.Xu Yun'er was dumbfounded. She did not understand what Gu Jiuci was making a fuss about.But Xu Yun'er was very happy about it. Gu Jiuci had such a bipolar temperament, and she loved stirring up trouble. This would definitely cause the entire A Class to hate her. Xu Yun'er would not have to waste her own energy trying to deal with Gu Jiuci.She was very happy to silently watch the scene unfold in front of her."I'm yelling at you! You're
Xu Yun'er jumped up to deny it. She grabbed Gu Jiuci's hand and said unhappily, "Ci, what is this nonsense? There's no one else that I like!"When he heard Xu Yun'er say this, Yu Gu let out a sigh of relief. Xu Yun'er also let out a sigh. She had resolved this crisis at last.Gu Jiuci smiled coldly on the inside. "Don't relax too soon. The worst is yet to come!""What? There's no one else that you like? So you don't like Yu Gu either? If you don't like him, then I'll help you scold him. I'll teach him to not harass you!"Gu Jiuci feigned innocence in her questions. She immediately grabbed the broom that was leaning against the wall and looked as though she was about to hit someone.Yu Gu felt extremely nervous. He always thought that Xu Yun'er had treated him differently from others. But Xu Yun'er had never stated her feelings explicitly.In her mind, Xu Yun'er cursed Gu Jiuci. But at the same time, she felt completely embarrassed. If she admitted that she did not like him, then
"Cousin, are you feeling shy? Why don't you say something?"This time, Gu Jiuci was not giving Xu Yun'er any time to make a plan. She immediately tried to urge her."Ci, don't try to make trouble! Yu Gu and Si Chen are betrothed! The whole school knows that!" Xu Yun'er said immediately. She was worried that Gu Jiuci might say something else to shock everyone.When she said this, she intentionally paused. Her eyes turned red as she looked at Yu Gu. She said with a pitiful expression, "So Yu Gu is someone I could never even imagine..."When Xu Yun'er said this, she intentionally added a melancholic tone. She made it look like she was someone who obviously deeply loved Yu Gu. But due to the pressures of the situation, she had to give him up.In this way, she would not offend Si Chen, but she would also not offend Yu Gu.When Yu Gu saw Xu Yun'er like this, he was filled with pity. How could he not care about the meaning in her words? He immediately rebuked Gu Jiuci. "Enough! Gu Jiuci
"So, Yu Gu doesn't even like Si Chen. No wonder he's so mean to her!""Then isn't Si Chen losing out? If it were me, I wouldn't be so cheap.""Xu Yun'er and Yu Gu look like a perfect match. It must be Si Chen who is being a nuisance and preventing Yu Gu from refusing marriage and being with Xu Yun'er!""Suddenly, I feel sympathy for Xu Yun'er. To love but not be able to have..."Her classmates' discussions were ear-piercing pieces of white noise and they all made their way to Si Chen's ears. "I'm clearly the victim, why is it that I am the villain in the end? Why did I become the subject of everyone's judgment?"Si Chen couldn't take it anymore and turned to run out of the classroom.Seeing the situation, Xu Yun'er secretly felt pleased even as she wore a worried expression."Yu Gu, your words were too hurtful just now. Aren't you going to follow her out to see how she is?"The more she spoke like this, the more Yu Gu would think she was an understanding person, and the less li
