When he got to the end, her brother's expression was particularly serious.Gu Jiuci's heart trembled and her eyes prickled. In both her lives, her brother had said the exact same thing."Perhaps I can let slip some clues for him to pick up on. Given his intelligence, he will slowly come to the right conclusion himself."At this moment, she made a decision."I didn't mean to hide it from you on purpose. It's just that I'm afraid everyone will scold me after I say it and probably no one will believe me.""Who would dare to scold you! I'll be the first to teach them a lesson! Rest assured and speak bravely."Gu Qian smiled gently, but his tone was very serious."I think..."Gu Jiuci clenched her fist and gathered her courage to spit it all out at once."I think Aunt and Cousin aren't sincere in being good to our family. They are after something. Just then, Aunt desperately wanted you to leave the house and I felt like something was wrong. That's why I purposely ruined your journe
"Mhm, okay."Her brother agreed crisply and didn't say another word.Gu Jiuci paused and awkwardly asked, "Brother, aren't you going to ask me why?""For good or bad, you are a genius with a 220 IQ. I trust your decision. However... I won't give them a chance to hurt you."When he said the last sentence, Gu Qian's expression darkened and it carried a murderous air.Gu Jiuci had prepared a pile of reasons to answer her brother's questions. For example, during these three years, the mother and daughter have put down deep roots in the Gu Family. Old Gu would not agree to them being chased away for no good reason.Another example was that Su Furong might have slipped her own people into the company and they would need to dig them out first.Most importantly, she didn't want Xu Yun'er to get away so easily. She would make Xu Yun'er pay back a thousand times the pain she had suffered in her previous life."A dull knife hurts more..."Unexpectedly, her brother's love for her knew no
Gu Jiuci ignored Zhan Ying's message, instead, she swiped across her screen and opened her conversation with Huo Mingche.Their most recent conversation was from before Huo Mingche went overseas."You bastard, why can't you just message me directly if you have something to say? Why must you borrow someone else's mouth? Do you have objections towards me?"Gu Jiuci pouted gloomily and angrily reached out to poke the conversation window, however, there was still no reply from the other side...On the contrary, Tang Yu sent a message.Tang Yu: "Ci, the makeup photos and the short videos came out very well. The production crew has decided that they will start advertising soon. When the time comes, you will be an overnight success!"She could tell that Tang Yu was very excited. After he had sent a long message, he specially added an "excited" sticker, making Gu Jiuci very curious.Gu Jiuci: "How amazing is it? Can you show me?"Tang Yu: "It's official material, a strict secret. When
Gu Jiuci smiled a little and pulled Si Chen as they headed into the park."Chenchen, don't pay her any mind. Let's go!""Hey, Gu Jiuci. Make clear what you're saying!"Ji Weiran jumped up and down in anger. Just as she was about to charge forward, Shen Jianxing pulled her in by her waist and stuck an ice cream cone in front of her face."Strawberry flavored."Ji Weiran's attention was immediately caught by the ice cream cone and she smiled sweetly at Shen Jianxing."Thank you, my dear."Shen Jianxing reached out and patted his girlfriend's head with a deep tenderness in his eyes."Hey, hey, hey, this singleton is about to fall over in jealousy. Chenchen, what about you?"Gu Jiuci's arms were crossed over her chest and she wore a disdainful expression, but secretly she was jealous."This is what a normal couple should look like.""I... I think I am a little jealous."Si Chen spoke thoughtfully. For some reason, when she saw Ji Weiran and Shen Jianxing interact, she would alw
Pressure spread throughout the office. The man wore a pure black shirt and darkness emanated from him. His gaze landed on his phone on the desk. The phone was very silent, with no sign that a message was incoming.Zhan Ying sighed. Today was another harrowing day.He lowered his head and peeked at his WeChat. As expected, Gu Jiuci hadn't replied to his message.He didn't understand. "The master and Gu Jiuci never had much mutual understanding, but when it comes to a cold war, why were they so compatible?""Hehehe..."At this moment, Ye Kan suddenly let out a jarring laugh. Without any regard for others, his fingers flew across the screen as he chatted enthusiastically with his new girlfriend.In comparison to the man who had been waiting for a message from his fiancé for the last few days, it was a clear contrast.Zhan Ying immediately kicked Ye Kan warningly. "It's all because of Ye Kan fanning the flames! If he hadn't taught the master to let loose in order to grasp tighter an
The man slowly raised his eyes. His pupils were as dark as a bottomless abyss as he looked coldly at Ye Kan.A mysterious chill went down Ye Kan's back.Seeing the situation, Zhan Ying hurriedly asked on his behalf, "Master, is it a message from Miss Gu?""It's definitely not her," Ye Kan said with certainty because he knew who was sending a message at this time.That's right, he purposely taught the boss to ignore Gu Jiuci to give Jiang Yuan a chance.Although this idea wasn't great, he was thinking about his boss's future happiness."Then who could it be? Our competitor? An enemy of the boss?"With the thinking of a straight man, Zhan Ying meticulously considered the possibilities."It's none of them. Those people aren't worth the boss looking like that."Ye Kan shook his head. Looking at Huo Mingche, he offered some well-meaning advice, "Boss, you should give other women a chance too. If you don't try, how do you know other women aren't just as good? Does it have to Gu Jiuc
Zhan Ying immediately replied respectfully.It was only after a long time since the man left that the two of them felt the oppressive pressure gradually recede from the office.Ye Kan let out a sigh and found that his forehead was covered in sweat. He thought he had been about to die.At this time, his phone rang. It was a call from Jiang Yuan."Ye Kan, what did you do? Why has Brother Huo blacklisted me on WeChat? Did you say something wrong?"The moment the call connected, Jiang Yuan began to hurl her accusations.Ye Kan was already feeling wronged and immediately grew angry at these words."Jiang Yuan, it's your own motherfucking fault. I risked my life to create an opportunity for you. Whose fault is it if you can't grasp the opportunity properly? It's me who was blind to think that you were worthy of the boss. You best do what you can!""Ye Kan! What are you saying?"Jiang Yuan's angry voice immediately came through the phone, but Ye Kan couldn't be bothered to listen and
"What do you mean? I've seen plenty of straight guys in dramas who don't like to wear couple's shirts."Si Chen unconsciously defended Yu Gu, but she felt uncertain in her heart."Chenchen, you're not going to like what I'm about to say. Petty love isn't love. It's just you compromising again and again. True love is a mutual exchange. Have you forgotten that I am a living example?"Gu Jiuci stared severely at Si Chen as she spoke.Hurt appeared on Si Chen's face. Just as she was about to say something, Ji Weiran and Shen Jianxing finished paying and headed toward them."We're done. Is there anything else you want to buy?"Interrupted like this, they couldn't continue the topic. Gu Jiuci shook her head."I don't have anything to buy."Si Chen was the same. Her last shopping experience there wasn't that great."Then we're leaving now, bye-bye!"Ji Weiran happily caught hold of Shen Jianxing's hand."I have training for the International Mathematical Olympiad to attend later...
