"Ha!" He chuckled, picked up his cup, took a sip, and said without a change in expression, "Bitter."

Liu Nian rolled her eyes and didn't say anything.

"Tell me, what have you been doing this past month? Why have you been ignoring me?"

Liu Nian spoke somewhat sullenly, "Didn't I already say that?"

"good."

fleeting time:!!!

Gu Minhang took another sip of coffee, the bitter taste spreading in his mouth.

"Niannian, have you forgotten what we talked about before?"

Time flows silently.

He continued, "Why?"

Liu Nian: "It's nothing, just a business marriage. As a member of a large family like the Liu family, and as a woman, the person I marry will naturally be someone who can provide the most valuable help to my family."

After listening, he gave a light snort and said, "Is that so?"

Liu Nian was getting anxious. What did Gu Minhang mean by this? Why wasn't he showing any sign of anxiety? It was she who was getting anxious!

"Yes."

"You'll consider anything that can help your Liu family's business, right?"

"yes."

"Okay, I understand."

You know! You know what?!

Liu Nian was incredibly anxious! But her face remained calm and expressionless.

Gu Minhang took another sip of coffee, checked the time, and realized school was over.

"Are you hungry? Let's go eat together."

Liu Nian: "I'm not hungry, thank you." Polite and courteous: "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Gu Minhang didn't say anything, but watched her leave the coffee shop. Then he got up, paid the bill, and left in the opposite direction.

After returning to school, Liu Nian went straight to the classroom for a nap. She had classes in the afternoon.

Ding Tiantian is a boarding student, and she usually goes back to her dormitory to sleep during lunch break. At this moment, there are only seven or eight people in the classroom.

Including Liu Nian, there are only nine people: five girls and four boys. They are all asleep at this moment.

Liu Nian didn't see Gu Minhang until school ended in the afternoon.

Sigh! If it weren't for deliberate intent, with the two courtyards so far apart, how could anyone possibly see each other!

"Liu Nian, I want to eat two meat buns from Zhou Ji's shop next to the school tomorrow. Could you buy them for me and bring them in?"

As soon as she stepped out of the classroom, Ding Tiantian immediately started thinking about tomorrow's breakfast.

Liu Nian: "OK".

After the two parted ways, Liu Nian glanced at the location of Zhouji Breakfast Shop after leaving the school gate. Finding it easy to find, she then took a taxi home.

As soon as I got downstairs, the system notification sounded.

System: "Host, the male lead's aura has been detected, within 700 meters of you."

Liu Nian ignored it, got into the elevator, and pressed the button for the 25th floor.

Gu Minhang was tinkering with his computer in his study, his brows furrowed, as if he had encountered a problem he couldn't solve for the time being.

He tapped for a few more minutes before letting out a sigh of relief and smiling with satisfaction.

"A business marriage, is it? Then you can only be with me."
