As soon as the words were spoken, the door closed.

Bai Lan was the only one left sitting in the living room, dazed and at a loss.

But she didn't give up.

In order to live with Gu Jiju, Bai Lan still chooses to get close to her shamelessly.

'Knock knock knock'

There was a knock on the door.

Gu Jiju sat in the study, his eyes like a shrewd light, rising and falling immediately.

"Ji Ju, I have something to discuss with you. I was wrong just now. I will talk to you properly now."

The man took a deep breath and was reluctant to face it, but he still couldn't refuse Bai Lan's invitation.

After all, this engagement party is a matter between the two of them.

"Come in, the door is not locked."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Lan pushed the door open and walked in.

Gu Jiju raised his eyes, and the first thing he saw was a pair of shrewd and sharp big eyes.

But when he saw Gu Jiju, he immediately became gentle and aggrieved.

"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now and shouldn't have lost my temper with you..."

Gu Jiju didn't say anything, but gave Bai Lan a look.

That means asking the other person to sit down.

"If you have anything else, tell me as soon as possible."

Bai Lan looked around and finally landed at the door.

Although Gu Jiju didn't see Bai Lan's eyes, he could still identify Bai Lan's purpose at the moment through his imagination.

"You and I are getting engaged, and we'll be getting married soon. Logically, I should move in here."

Bai Lan has been living with her child in the bridal chamber that should have belonged to Chen Yuan.

Gu Jiju always stayed in her own villa and never spent time with Bai Lan.

Bai Lan could understand it at that time.

After all, they were not in a relationship yet, and it was not appropriate for them to live together, but there was no reason to reject her now.

Bai Lan spoke bluntly, waiting for Gu Jiju's response.

"You should know what I mean, right? I was thinking that after we get engaged, we can live together. Do you think it's better for me to move in, or for you to move out?"

Unfortunately, Gu Jiju had no such plan.

Even if they were engaged, it was just a means for Gu Jiju to hold Bai Lan back.

As long as you don’t get a marriage certificate, everything is invalid.

"It's still early, why rush?"

Bai Lan forced himself to suppress his bad temper and negotiated with the other party in a gentle tone.

"Well, we already have children, so why not live together? We're going to get married sooner or later anyway, it's just a matter of sooner or later."

"inconvenient."

This time, Gu Jiju still refused very straightforwardly.

The man continued to deal with the documents in his hands. His seemingly casual answer actually concerned Gu Jiju very much.

"From the outside, it seems that my marriage will affect my work, so for the sake of my career, I won't get married easily. You should be aware of this."

"But……"

"Also, since we're already engaged, it doesn't matter when we start living together. I'm a conservative person, and we shouldn't live together before we get a marriage certificate."

The last sentence was nothing more than a pretext to deceive Bai Lan.

But Bai Lan rolled his eyes and refused to be outdone.

"What about our children?"

The woman had a smile on her lips, as if she had grasped Gu Jiju's weakness.

Whenever something related to the children is mentioned, Gu Jiju will become very nervous and does not want to see the children affected by her own affairs.

"What's wrong? We're engaged and married, what does it have to do with children?"

"You know, children need to be registered, go to school, and take exams and apply for various registrations in the future, and they need to fill out the parents' relevant information. But if we don't get married, how can we handle all these things for the children?"

Gu Jiju suddenly fell silent.

His confident look just now was instantly interrupted by Bai Lan's words.

"I won't force you. Think about it carefully. For the sake of the child, you have to think it over carefully."

After he finished speaking, Bai Lan turned and left.

This seemingly peaceful communication actually contains many tricks.

Even Gu Jiju had to watch Bai Lan leave, and his mood could not calm down for a long time.

The next morning.

Gu Jiju and Bai Lan arrived at the scene early.

In order for the engagement to go smoothly, the child stayed at home and did not show up.

Bigwigs from all walks of life came to congratulate him. As for Chen Yuan, he just stood aside and watched the fun with the people who were more familiar with the scene.

This kind of scene is what Chen Yuan has always dreamed of.

It was also what she longed for back then.

I thought I would marry Gu Jiju, but unexpectedly, it was all just my fantasy.

"Hey, Shen Yuan, you're here too!"

Just as Shen Yuan was in a daze, a beautiful figure approached from a distance.

The two looked at each other, and the other took the initiative to say hello.

This made Shen Yuan feel a little passive, so he had to wave his hands and talk to the other party.

"Yes, I'm invited."

The person who spoke was also someone who witnessed the relationship between Chen Yuan and Gu Jiju.

When I worked with Gu Jiju, I also got to know Chen Yuan.

The woman had a smile on her lips and spoke without restraint, not even caring about Shen Yuan's feelings.

"I thought you would marry Gu Jiju, but I was wrong. The person he is marrying is not you!"

As soon as the words fell, Shen Yuan's expression suddenly became awkward.

The woman didn't even look up and just drank the wine in her glass.

The acquaintances around him also curled their lips and tried to interrupt the other party with their eyes.

"Oh, today is someone's engagement day. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to bring up these things? Let's just let bygones be bygones. Don't bring it up again!"

The woman laughed again, as if she didn't realize that Shen Yuan was in a bad mood.

"What's the big deal? We're all adults now. What's the big deal even if we say some things? But Chen Yuan, you're not still concerned about Gu Jiju, are you?"
