Looking at Ye Qianning, Qin Lin couldn't help but compare Bai Qianmo and Ye Qianning in her mind.

"Qian Ning, you are such a magnanimous and good child. A Ye, do you see? Only a girl like Qian Ning is a blessing to marry. You and Bai Qian Mo had better break up as soon as possible."

Gu Jueye's deep gaze turned to Ye Qianning.

“There are some things I’m too lazy to bother with, but they seem to have become bargaining chips for others to use. Ms. Ye, if I remember correctly, we haven’t been very close since we were little. The only connection we have is that you are close to my parents.”

This light, casual "Miss Ye" reveals Ye Qianning's place in Gu Jueye's heart.

It was more like a vicious slap across Ye Qianning's face.

Who doesn't know that the only woman by Gu Jueye's side is Ye Qianning?

Now, however, he has been severely humiliated by the person involved, and this embarrassment is even more painful than having flesh cut off from her body.

Gu Jueye did not notice the pale and helpless look on Ye Qianning's face.

"Originally, I ignored the rumors circulating outside because of my parents, and then I went abroad for several years. But that doesn't mean I didn't know anything. Regarding the rumors about you and me, I thought it would be more appropriate for you, being a woman, to come forward and explain. I never expected that even my parents would think we were childhood sweethearts."

Speaking of this, Gu Jueye also had a headache.

Back then, it was rumored in the industry that Ye Qianning was his woman, but because he was preparing to go abroad, he had no time to deal with anything else.

In addition, Ye Qianning is also quite close to her parents because of Ye Yuzhen.

Out of consideration for their kinship, he didn't treat her the same way he treated other girls. Perhaps it was just his own lack of awareness, but others misinterpreted it as indulgence and tacit approval.

"Ah Ye, do you mean to say that I spread these rumors?" Ye Qianning trembled all over, looking at him with a wronged expression.

Gu Jueye scoffed lightly: "It doesn't matter who spread the rumors. I just want to remind Miss Ye that for the sake of your reputation, it would be better to clarify things as soon as possible."

Ye Qianning held back her tears, her hands clenched tightly.

"Uncle Gu, Aunt Qin, Ah... Now that Lord Gu has returned home, I imagine you three still have a lot to talk about, so I won't disturb you any longer. Aunt, Xinyi, let's go."

He has never asked her to change how he calls him A-Ye, even after all these years.

Among the socialites in Beijing's elite circles, only she could address him so intimately. She had always thought that she was indeed special in his heart.

But now it seems that it was just a dream I had woven myself.

Although her heart was breaking at that moment, she couldn't lose her composure in front of the Gu family elders.

She has plenty of ways to deal with Bai Qianmo.

She believed that as long as A-Ye could see Bai Qianmo's true colors, he would eventually see her good qualities.

Therefore, winning the favor of the Gu family elders is the most important thing now.
