"Hello."

Gu Yunzhen's voice was cold and clear. She sat in the same row as Gu Chenye, right opposite Yan Yirou.

Yan Yirou looked up and saw Gu Yunzhen's handsome face. The impact of his appearance was too great. She deliberately rummaged through her bag and moved to the side when putting it down. When she looked up again, it was neither Gu Chenye's face nor Gu Yunzhen's face, but right in the middle.

That's really nice. Yan Yirou gave herself a thumbs up for her cleverness.

Yan Yirou's little tricks did not escape the eyes of the Gu brothers, but they just didn't expose her.

Gu Yunzhen smiled with interest: "Third Brother is on a date with Miss Yan?"

They're putting on quite a convincing act!

Gu Chenye played along with his act: "My sister-in-law asked me to come."

But he added on the spot: "I had no choice. She said she'd give me her niece to raise for three months after she was born, so I came."

In an instant, Gu Yunzhen's handsome face darkened: "Impossible!"

Yan Yirou was utterly shocked: "Is Wu Bao pregnant?"

Gu Chenye and Gu Yunzhen looked at her at the same time.

Yan Yirou suddenly understood and made a zipping motion at her mouth: "I'll keep it a secret!"

Gu Chenye narrowed his eyes: Pretty savvy!

Gu Yunzhen's gaze was calm and composed as she suddenly spoke: "Miss Yan, may I ask you a few questions?"

At the same time, he tapped the table rhythmically with his index finger.

Yan Yirou looked at his fair, slender, and well-defined fingers, the kind of exquisite fingers that any hand fetishist would want to treasure at first glance.

Fortunately, she wasn't a hand fetishist and wasn't swayed.

Yan Yirou looked up at him: "What does Fourth Young Master want to ask?"

Gu Yunzhen's gaze was sharp as he cut to the chase: "Why did you ask my wife for help?"

Yan Yirou was taken aback for a moment, then replied, "I have no other intentions. I asked the Fourth Young Mistress for help because she is the only woman in the Gu family who is about my age, and women are always soft-hearted."

Gu Yunzhen corrected her: "He's five years younger than you."

Yan Yirou was stunned: "..." Does it really need to be calculated so precisely?

Seeing her expression, Gu Chenye suddenly felt like laughing and burst out laughing too: "Hahaha..."

Yan Yirou slowly turned her head to look at him: Is it funny?

Gu Chenye understood her look and responded directly, "It's very funny."

Yan Yirou silently cursed in her heart, "Is this man a devil?"

Gu Yunzhen glanced at the two of them without showing any emotion, then said, "You want to use the power of my Gu family to get rid of Ji Xianli for you?"

"Yes, I have reached a cooperation agreement with the Fourth Young Mistress. She helped me deal with Ji Xianli, and I have worked for her for ten years." Yan Yirou could say that she did not hide anything at all, because if the lie were exposed, it would affect her reputation.

Gu Yunzhen lowered her eyes: "Not enough."

"What?" Yan Yirou couldn't help but frown. Did they expect her to sell herself for twenty years?

Gu Yunzhen stared into her eyes with his deep, ocean-like gaze, and his thin lips parted slightly: "She is not short of money, and she can afford to hire even the best talent. It's not that she can't do without you, unless you can offer an advantage that others don't have."

Yan Yirou: "..."

That seems to make sense.

But she can help Shangguan Wu avoid some potential dangers!

As Yan Yirou looked into his eyes, she gradually felt her spirits dampen, and her gaze became unfocused and dazed.

It's done!

Gu Yunzhen stopped tapping his fingers on the table and asked in a low voice, "What is your purpose in approaching Shangguan Wu?"

Yan Yirou answered without hesitation: "To gain favor."

Gu Yunzhen's handsome face was as dark as ink.

Why would a woman try to win over his wife?

Gu Yunzhen: "Why try to gain favor?"

Yan Yirou: "Save my life!"

Gu Yunzhen's deep eyes gradually narrowed. She had offended someone and now she wanted to drag his wife down with her?

"Who wants to kill you?"

"No one wants to kill me for now, but I'm just a cannon fodder female supporting character. Before I have enough ability to protect myself, of course I have to cling to the female lead's leg for protection." Yan Yirou's tone was slightly impatient.

Gu Chenye, who was watching from the side, was shocked. He had actually been successfully hypnotized by the fourth brother!

sure!

But could he please stop focusing his questions on his younger siblings?

Gu Chenye rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Gu Yunzhen ignored him. He hadn't read the novel, but he knew what "cannon fodder" meant: "Shangguan Wu is the female lead?"

Yan Yirou nodded and said, "Yes, but she died relatively young."

In an instant, the temperature in the private room plummeted.

Gu Yunzhen's sharp, piercing black eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty glint, and he exuded a powerful, cold, and dangerous aura, as if he wanted to kill Yan Yirou on the spot.

His mind was in turmoil, so the hypnosis session was interrupted.

However, the hypnosis was abruptly interrupted, and Yan Yirou suddenly woke up, while Gu Yunzhen felt a buzzing in her head, as if she had been pricked by a needle.

But he remained unfazed, not even flinching.

After Yan Yirou regained consciousness, she felt like something had just happened, but she couldn't remember it. In an instant, her guard was raised to the highest level!

However, she did not question Gu Yunzhen about what he had done to her.

After all, there are two people on the other side, and it wouldn't do her any good to break off relations with them.

Unable to finish her meal, Yan Yirou looked at Gu Chenye and said, "I'm sorry, Third Young Master, I'm not feeling well, so I'll head back first. Goodbye."

She got up and left after she finished speaking.

"stop!"

Gu Yunzhen stared coldly at Yan Yirou, his aura imposing: "You said my wife died relatively young, what else do you know?"

Yan Yirou suddenly stopped walking.

Did she just say that Shangguan Wu died relatively young?

That's impossible!

She would never willingly reveal the secret unless she was under someone's influence and had been hypnotized!
