Chapter 673: Coming so early?

Su Yan stopped.

She looked carefully and found that the car parked in front of her was indeed Si Junzuo's car.

It's just past six o'clock now.

It’s not even dark yet.

The guests haven't arrived yet.

Si Junzuo is here?

Is he here for Mrs. Xie's birthday dinner, or is he waiting for her?

Isn’t this too early?

Su Yan bent down, leaned on the car window, and looked inside the car. Sure enough, she saw Si Junzuo sitting in the driver's seat.

"Knock."

Su Yan knocked on the car window.

Si Junzuo turned around and saw Su Yan.

A faint smile immediately appeared on his handsome face.

Si Junzuo quickly unbuckled his seat belt, got out of the car, and stared at Su Yan in front of him. His eyes were full of amazement, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Yan Yan, you are so beautiful tonight."

Su Yan did not dress up deliberately tonight. Out of courtesy, she put on light makeup and wore a low-key little black dress.

However, she is tall and has beautiful curves, and even the low-key black cannot hide her beauty.

Especially those long legs, which are straight, white and beautiful, making people unable to take their eyes off them.

Su Yan smiled: "Thank you."

Su Yan asked, "Fifth brother, are you also coming to Mrs. Xie's birthday dinner?"

"Me?" Si Junzuo shook his head. "Mrs. Xie and I are not familiar with each other."

If anyone wants to participate, it will probably be his parents who come.

Su Yan was surprised: "So you are here to wait for me?"

Si Junzuo nodded with a smile: "I said I would take you home."

Su Yan was helpless: "But it's only six o'clock now, and it's still early before the dinner ends."

Si Junzuo said: "It's okay, I'm not busy, I'll wait for you."

The words "not busy" were of course a lie to Su Yan.

Si Junzuo wanted to come earlier.

Even if it is closer to Suyan, it would be good.

Su Yan naturally knew he was lying: "Your law firm just opened, how could you not be busy?"

Si Junzuo: "How can the work be finished? It will be the same if I do it tomorrow."

Su Yan: “…”

Su Yan said helplessly: "Fifth brother, how about this, you drive outside and find a cafe to sit down. I will text you when the party is about to end."

How about waiting for hours?

He might as well go to a cafe and have a cup of coffee to kill some time.

Si Junzuo saw the concern in her eyes and said with a smile, "Okay, you go in first, I'll drive away right away."

"Okay then."

Su Yan walked into the Xie family, looking back every few steps.

Si Junzuo did not drive away.

He got back in the car.

He was waiting for Su Yan in the car.

This way, she could see him the first time she came out.

…

Su Yan walked into the Xie family in high heels and handed the gift to the housekeeper.

Xie's father and mother dressed up and attended the event to entertain the guests.

Seeing Su Yan, they were both stunned.

At the beginning, they didn't treat Su Yan well because of the marriage between Su Yan and Xie Yuhan.

Thinking about it now, I feel very ashamed.

She was very touched that Su Yan was willing to attend Xie's mother's birthday dinner.

"Yanyan, welcome, welcome. You're truly amazing now. The leukemia drug you developed is truly a benefit to mankind. You look beautiful tonight."

Su Yan agreed to a few words and went in.

Xie Yuhan is probably very busy tonight.

Su Yan found a place to stay by herself.

at the same time.

A black Maybach slowly stopped at the gate of the Xie family.

The bodyguard opened the car door and the man's black leather shoes stepped on the floor.

The man was wearing a black shirt and a black suit, and he looked serious and cold.

The cold expression on his handsome face was somewhat out of place with the festive atmosphere of the banquet.

"Xiu Bo! Xiu Bo, you're here! Wow, you've changed so much!" Xie's mother came forward in surprise.

Gu Xiubo glanced at the assistant behind him.

The assistant immediately stepped forward and said, "Mrs. Xie, this is a birthday gift that our President Gu prepared for you. I wish you a long life."

Xie's mother took it and said, "Thank you, thank you. Xiu Bo, please come in."

Gu Xiubai has become much calmer now.

Xie's mother looked at Gu Xiubo and was extremely satisfied.

If the Xie and Gu families could marry, they would be a perfect match and would be even more powerful.

Father Xie also looked at Gu Xiubo with new eyes: "Xiubo, come, I'll take you in."

Gu Xiubo said calmly: "Uncle Xie, I used to come here often when I was a kid, I know the way, you are busy."

"Haha..." Father Xie laughed heartily, "Yes, yes, you and Yu Han played well together when you were little."

Gu Xiubo nodded coldly and walked in.

Xie's father and mother said, "Xiu Bo is a completely different child now. The Gu family has been handed over to him. He has a bright future."

Xie's mother smiled: "I don't know if he and Yuhan will like it."

Father Xie: "Why not? They played well together when they were little."

Mother Xie said with relief: "If Yu Han and Xiu Bo are together, that would be great too."

Xie's father agreed: "They are a good match."

…

As soon as Gu Xiubo walked into the Xie family's garden, someone came forward and handed him a business card.

However, they were all blocked by the discerning assistant.

"Sorry, it's Mr. Gu's private time now, please forgive me."

The other party left embarrassedly.

They finally got to meet Gu Xiu Bo today. Normally, they don’t have the qualifications to make an appointment with Gu Xiu Bo.

However, he did not dare to anger Gu Xiubo, so he had to leave tactfully.

Gu Xiubo put one hand in his pocket. Since he came in, his eyes have been scanning the crowd for Su Yan's figure.

He has been back for more than a month, but he has not taken the initiative to look for Su Yan.

Because he couldn't find a reason to ask Su Yan out.

Today is Xie's mother's birthday.

The invitation letter had already been handed to him.

Originally, Gu Xiubo didn't plan to come.

I accidentally learned that Su Yan would also be coming.

Only then did he rush over.

Seven years.

They haven't seen each other for seven years.

When they meet again, will she still find him childish, superficial, and bad-tempered?

Gu Xiubo searched for a long time and found Su Yan playing with a cat behind a Podocarpus tree.

It's a ragdoll cat.

Xie Yu is well-educated.

Su Yan teased it, and it didn't even shy away from strangers.

Gu Xiubo walked over slowly, his breathing becoming much lighter.

Finally, he stopped one meter away from Su Yan.

It’s been seven years since we last met. Su Yan is so beautiful tonight.

It was so beautiful that it made his heart beat as fast as it did seven years ago.

Su Yan, dressed in women's clothing, could always easily stir up his calm heart.

Whether it was seven years ago or seven years later.

However, there was no expression on Gu Xiubo's face.

He has complete control over his emotions.

Su Yan felt someone was looking at her. When she turned around, she saw Gu Xiubo standing beside her.

"Gu Xiubo." Su Yan called out unconsciously.

She stood up straight.

The Ragdoll cat ran away immediately.

Gu Xiubo looked at Su Yan with his dark eyes: "It's me, long time no see."

At this moment, it was dark, but the lights in the garden were as bright as day.

Su Yan looked at the cold expression on Gu Xiubo's face and thought to herself, Gu Xiubo has indeed matured a lot.

He has also become much stronger.

He exercised every day in high school, so his back and waist were very strong. Now, seven years later, it is even stronger.

Even when wearing a black shirt, you can vaguely see the lines on his chest muscles.

Broad shoulders and narrow waist give people a sense of security.

"Long time no see," Su Yan said casually, as if chatting with an old classmate, "Are you also coming to Mrs. Xie's birthday dinner?"

Gu Xiubo nodded: "Yes, our two families are old friends."

Su Yan nodded slightly.

Gu Xiubo put one hand in his pocket. He looked at Su Yan quietly, then glanced behind Su Yan: "Where's the fifth brother?"

Seven years ago, Su Yan and Si Junzuo were together. So many years have passed, they should have gotten married and had children.

After returning to China, Gu Xiubo thought about checking the current situation of Suyan, but in the end he did not check anything.

"Gu Xiubo!"

Su Yan was about to speak when Xie Yuhan came over in high heels. She looked at Gu Xiubo in surprise and said, "My mom said you've become much more mature. I didn't expect it to be true. You look much more handsome."

Gu Xiubo nodded slightly: "Thank you."

Xie Yuhan looked at Su Yan again: "Yanyan, you look so beautiful tonight too. Hey, why are you two both wearing black? Are they couple outfits?"

Gu Xiubo frowned: "Xie Yuhan, don't talk nonsense."

Xie Yuhan looked at Gu Xiubo in surprise: "Why, are you taken?"

Gu Xiubo shook his head: "I'm single."

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Su Yan's face for a few seconds.

Suyan now has an owner.

So, it is not appropriate to make such jokes.

Xie Yuhan laughed: "What a coincidence, I am single too, and Yanyan is single too. I didn't expect that we would both become leftover fighters."

Gu Xiubo's eyes suddenly turned to Su Yan: "You, single? Broke up with Fifth Brother?"

Su Yan: “…”

Xie Yuhan immediately responded, "What? Yanyan and Si Junzuo have never been together, so how can they break up?"

Gu Xiubo: “…”

Su Yan has never been with Si Junzuo?

What about Ling Yushen’s circle of friends seven years ago?

No matter what happened seven years ago, what matters is now.

Su Yan is still single...does he still have a chance?

Gu Xiubo glanced at Su Yan with a complicated expression, but soon, his face was expressionless.

He has become accustomed to not showing his emotions on his face.

Xie Yuhan looked at Su Yan, then at Gu Xiubo: "You two are both single, why don't you two give it a try?"

Gu Xiubo slowly looked at Su Yan, with a smile in his eyes.

Su Yan then spoke up, "Miss Xie, you're so boring. When did you start acting as a matchmaker?"

Xie Yuhan smiled: "Now."

Su Yan: “…”

"Well, you guys chat, I won't disturb you." Xie Yuhan slipped away tactfully.

Give Su Yan and Gu Xiubo some time alone.

Gu Xiu Bo is still very good.

If Su Yan were with him, Xie Yuhan would think they were a good match.

Gu Xiubo stared at Su Yan quietly, his heartbeat slightly faster: "Are you really single?"

Su Yan shook her head: "Soon it won't be."

“…” Gu Xiubo looked at her in confusion.

Su Yan said: "Someone is pursuing me, and I am about to agree to him."

Gu Xiubo: “…”

So, he came back late?

Su Yan nodded slightly to Gu Xiubo, then walked away in her high heels.

Gu Xiubo looked at Su Yan's back as she walked away. He stood where he was and did not follow her.

He was rejected again without a word.

Gu Xiubo sighed.

Su Yan, I wish you happiness.

He is no longer the naive boy he once was.

If I don’t like it, I don’t like it.

There's no point in getting entangled.

He would watch her from afar and bless her.

…

Xie's mother's birthday dinner today was unusually lively.

Many young talents were attracted by the beautiful and elegant Xie Yuhan.

However, Xie's father and mother liked Gu Xiubo very much.

However, Gu Xiubo didn't even glance at Xie Yuhan.

Only then did Xie's father and mother realize that it was just their wishful thinking.

There are so many young talents here tonight, and they still have many choices.

Xie Yuhan was busy with social engagements.

Su Yan deliberately kept a certain distance from Gu Xiubo.

Gu Xiubo maintained his composure and did not take the initiative to approach.

The banquet is over.

Su Yan said goodbye to the Xie family and left the Xie family.

Gu Xiubo finally caught up.

"Su Yan."

At the gate of the Xie family, Gu Xiubo called Su Yan.

There was no expression on Gu Xiubo's face. His dark eyes stared at Su Yan quietly, and it was impossible to tell what emotion he was feeling.

"Let me take you home. It's very late." said Gu Xiubo.

Su Yan shook her head: "Thank you, but someone is waiting for me."

Gu Xiubo looked at her with some regret.

He just... wanted to put an end to his youth.

Don't want to do anything.

As the two walked out together, Gu Xiubo saw Si Junzuo standing next to the Mercedes-Benz.

Si Junzuo.

Haven't seen you for seven years.

Si Junzuo is no longer as youthful as usual.

He was wearing a white shirt, gold-rimmed glasses, and an expensive watch on his wrist, looking like a social elite.

Apparently, he has become a lawyer.

It must feel great to realize your dreams.

Si Junzuo is here. Is he waiting for Su Yan?

So, Si Junzuo is the person Su Yan mentioned was pursuing her?

After going around in circles, it’s still him.

Gu Xiubo smiled to himself.

Su Yan has always treated Si Junzuo and them differently.

She was full of praise for Si Junzuo.

He is also closest to Si Junzuo.

Now that I think about it, if her feelings for Si Junzuo aren't love, then what else could it be?

It’s just that I was young and too careless, and I only focused on my own heart, so I didn’t see anything.

Looking back over the years, he accepted his defeat with conviction.

"Yanyan." Si Junzuo called out with a smile.

The next second, he noticed Gu Xiubo behind Su Yan.

Si Junzuo was a little surprised.

Gu Xiubo was there too.

He looks a lot calmer.

"Gu Xiubo." Si Junzuo walked towards the two of them.

"Fifth brother." Gu Xiubo nodded slightly.

Si Junzuo: "Are you coming to the birthday party too?"

After not seeing each other for many years, they chatted like old friends.

Gu Xiubo nodded: "Yes, Fifth Brother, why don't you go in?"

Si Junzuo said: "I'm not here for the birthday party, I'm waiting to take Yanyan home."

A faint smile appeared on Gu Xiubo's lips, and he nodded slightly: "Okay, you guys get busy."

After Gu Xiubo finished speaking, he turned and walked towards his Maybach.

The car was driving on the road, Gu Xiubo was sitting in the back seat, through the rearview mirror, he saw Si Junzuo open the passenger door, protecting Su Yan's head, and Su Yan sat in.

The two of them look very compatible.

Gu Xiubo slowly withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes. The only thing he could do was to give his blessing.

His youth was completely over.
