Yan Laiyi knew she was an illegitimate child, and her mother was a murderer who destroyed another's family.
Her mother had harbored a long-standing crush on her father, but he fell in lov...
Chapter 967: Are you afraid that I will force Gu Huai to leave?
Ning Zhixi pouted and glared at Gu Huai: "Can't you say bad things about others behind their backs?"
But Gu Huai didn't even look at her, he just stood up and left.
Ning Zhixi took a few steps forward, wanting to follow, but then he noticed something and looked up to see Yan's intention.
Yan Laiyi also lowered his eyes and looked at her.
Ning Zhixi stood under the light, his originally angry expression suddenly filled with interest, and he stared at her with narrowed eyes.
Yan Laiyi smiled and nodded at her as a greeting.
Ning Zhixi smiled meaningfully, "You must be Yan Laiyi! Come down and play, why are you staying up there? Do you think I can bite anyone?"
As she spoke, she glanced ambiguously in Gu Huai's direction: "And you were... not peeking at us just now, were you?"
Yan Laiyi found her quite interesting and said, "How can this be considered peeping?"
She stuck her head out halfway and said calmly, "I was standing here when you came just now."
Ning Zhixi suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Sorry, I thought you were peeking at me and Gu Huai chatting."
"That's not the case." Yan Laiyi leaned against the window, his posture casual: "This is my home. Since I'm at home, no matter where I go, it can't be considered peeping, except for the bathroom, of course."
Ning Zhizhi's smile froze and he twitched the corners of his mouth unhappily.
When Yan Laiyi came down from the second floor, Gu Huai walked up to her with brand new skewers from the factory: "Come, try some."
Her eyes lit up: "Corn kernels! I love eating corn kernels!"
Gu Huai chuckled: "I know you like corn kernels, try it."
As Yan Laiyi took a string, Ning Zhixi walked up to her and said, "I really envy the relationship between you two."
Yan Laiyi was eating skewers and looked at her in confusion.
Ning Zhizhi folded her arms and pouted enviously, "I don't have such good luck as you. After all, Gu Huai and I are childhood sweethearts, but Gu Huai doesn't like to be with me."
Gu Huai looked at her expressionlessly: "Who is your childhood sweetheart?"
Ning Zhixi scolded: "Of course not, Gu Huai, we are together at every party in the Gu family, and I used to talk to you when I was a child."
After a pause, she thought of something bad: "Of course, you haven't wanted to talk to me since I grew long hair. When I had a buzz cut, you were happy to talk to me..."
Ning Zhixi murmured to himself: "You are the only one who doesn't mind that I have a boyish buzz cut. You are obviously different."
Yan Laiyi took a breath of cold air!
She wasn't sure just now!
But now she is completely sure!
This guy likes Gu Huai!
She originally thought she was overthinking it.
She decisively approached Gu Huai: "Do you two often talk together?"
Gu Huai's heart was alarmed: "No."
He glanced at Ning Zhizhi, his disdain evident in his expression. "I've never spoken to her. The time she had her hair cut was because I thought she was a boy. My dad also lied to me that she was a boy."
He was so angry when he thought about what happened back then: "You know my dad, he always likes to play tricks on me. My dad told me that Ning Zhixi was a boy, so I treated Ning Zhixi as a boy of my age. But I didn't get too close to her, just talking to her normally. After I found out she was a girl, I distanced myself and never paid any attention to her again."
Yan Laiyi nodded.
Although Gu Huai has grown up, he is still very picky in relationships.
Apart from those who have played with him since childhood, it is basically difficult for others to become his friends.
Yan Laiyi felt relieved and said to Ning Zhixi in high spirits, "Since you are here, just have fun here. It's a family party after all, so just treat it like your own home."
She then pointed to Shen Zaiye, Shen Jingci and others: "The three over there are my brothers, about the same age as us, let me introduce them to you."
Ning Zhixi seemed to have come back to his senses from his trance, revealing a sneer of "I've been caught" on his face: "Miss Yan Laiyi, are you so afraid that I'll snatch Gu Huai away? You're so busy introducing other boys to me."
Yan Laiyi: "Ah?"
