In her past life, her family was destroyed and she died tragiously on the open sea.
Reborn in a new life, what bad intentions could Shangguan Wu possibly have? She simply wants to take reveng...
Five days.
Gu Chenye originally only had one day, but his younger siblings managed to get him four more days.
Madam Yan was dissatisfied again upon hearing this. How could they cultivate their relationship in just five days?
Yan Yirou was stunned. She hadn't expected him to have five days off. Was that a bit too much?
Fortunately, Gu Chenye didn't know what she was thinking, otherwise he would have been spitting blood.
Suddenly, Madam Yan said, "I'll have someone calculate if there are any auspicious days in the next five days. You two can get engaged first, and then both families can sit down together to celebrate. What do you think?"
Gu Chenye: "Engaged?"
Yan Yirou: "Engaged?"
The two were so shocked that they spoke in unison.
They're just pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend; they absolutely can't get engaged! Yan Yirou thought to herself.
Old Madam Yan looked at them sharply: "You seem quite surprised by the engagement?"
Yan Yirou didn't want the old lady to become suspicious right now, so she secretly touched Gu Chenye's waist.
This was the first time Yan Yirou had ever flirted with a man, and she blushed uncontrollably.
At the same time, she said in a coquettish tone, "Grandma~ please don't say anymore!"
Gu Chenye froze, his ears gradually turning red and burning.
When Madam Yan noticed that one of them had blushed and the other had blushed, she suddenly realized that they were shy!
"Grandma, I'll take him out for a walk!"
Yan Yirou grabbed Gu Chenye's hand, stood up, and left.
Gu Chenye obediently followed her to the Yan family garden.
The garden was deserted.
Yan Yirou led him to the pavilion and sat down.
Thank you for today.
Yan Yirou released his hand and earnestly assured him, "Don't worry, I will make Grandma give up the idea of engagement."
Seeing her expression as if she wanted to distance herself from him, Gu Chenye felt a pang of heartache and asked quietly, "You're going to thank me properly, so what about the reward?"
Without the slightest hesitation, Yan Yirou said, "This is what I'm thinking. In five days, we'll break up. I'll say I want to return the things you gave me to you in cash. They definitely won't suspect anything."
"Break up?" It turned out that her desire to sever ties wasn't just his imagination.
Gu Chenye remained expressionless for a moment.
"Yes, I asked you for help in the first place to get rid of Ji Xianli. Now that he's with my cousin, my problem is solved, so I definitely need to break off our relationship. I can't keep bothering you, right?"
Yan Yirou thanked him again, saying sincerely, "Thank you, Third Young Master. If you need any help in the future, I will agree as long as it is within my power."
So he's become the Third Young Master again?
However, her last sentence showed she still had a conscience.
Gu Chenye narrowed his eyes: "You heard what I just said to your grandmother, didn't you?"
"I heard you, so what?" Yan Yirou asked, looking completely bewildered.
Gu Chenye's tone was ambiguous: "So you want me to slap myself in the face?"
"Well!"
Yan Yirou was stunned.
He said time would tell, but they broke up five days later, which seemed a bit unfortunate.
Thinking of this, Yan Yirou felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look at him.
Gu Chenye snorted coldly.
Yan Yirou suddenly raised her head and asked directly, "Then what should we do? You're going back to the army in five days. Are you going to wait until you return to the capital to break up with me?"
Gu Chenye asked her in a cool tone, "Are you in such a hurry because you've found a man you like?"
Yan Yirou immediately shook her head: "No."
"Then why are you in such a hurry?" It made it sound like he was some kind of jerk!
Gu Chenye's sharp, eagle-like eyes darkened. Women's words really can't be trusted!
A few days ago, in order to get his help, she made it sound as if she would fall into a fire pit without him.
Now that the fire pit is gone, she can't wait to get rid of him. Haha, is he someone she can just summon and dismiss at will?
Gu Chenye narrowed his eyes, revealing a cold glint in them.
Yan Yirou was stunned for two seconds.
"I'm not in a hurry, I'm just worried that I might hold you back."
She explained, "What if you take a fancy to a woman, but she has a girlfriend in name only? Even if you dare to pursue her, she won't agree to be with you!"
Gu Chenye raised an eyebrow: "Again, thinking of me?"
What do you mean "again"? It's clearly "always"!
Yan Yirou thought to herself.
Unfortunately, she didn't dare say it aloud.
"If you feel there's anything wrong, we can discuss it further," Yan Yirou said humbly.
Gu Chenye suddenly frowned; someone was watching!
He glanced around discreetly, but didn't see a single person.
But the feeling of being spied on is still there!
If it's not a person, then it can only be a surveillance camera!
Would the Yan family install surveillance cameras in their own gazebo?
While he couldn't rule out the possibility that it was someone from the Yan family, Gu Chenye suspected another person.
Given that Ji Xianli was living in the Yan family's residence and harbored ambitions towards them, it's not impossible that he installed surveillance cameras to secretly monitor the Yan family members.
In a split second, Gu Chenye suddenly grabbed Yan Yirou's arm and lifted her up onto his lap.
"ah!"
Yan Yirou exclaimed in surprise, completely stunned.
Gu Chenye noticed her body stiffen instantly, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and then he suddenly relaxed.
He spoke slowly and deliberately: "Discuss? Are you sure this won't be another case of acting first and asking questions later?"
What is he saying?
Yan Yirou stammered nervously, "W-what do you want to do? Let me go first..."
Gu Chenye moved even closer to her, their noses almost touching: "I won't let go."
A strong scent of male hormones wafted over her, and Yan Yirou blushed bright red, burning like a shrimp thrown into a hot pan.
