The lips of the two who had just kissed were slightly wet, and an ambiguous atmosphere filled the air.

Just then, Gu Chenye's phone rang.

Seeing that he was only looking at her, Yan Yirou panicked and turned her head away from his gaze, reminding him, "Answer the phone."

Gu Chenye answered the phone, but his eyes were fixed on her profile as he spoke to her, "What time do you get off work?"

Mu Zhihang's tone on the phone sounded rather surprised: "Huh? I can leave work anytime. So, where do you plan to go for a drink?"

Gu Chenye frowned, raised his hand and moved her face towards him: "Look at me."

Yan Yirou just stared at him.

Mu Zhihang on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment before he realized that Gu San, that bastard, wasn't talking to him at all!

Mu Zhihang rubbed his forehead: "Gu San, you're something else. If you don't want to answer my call, then don't. If you do answer, do you want me to hear you flirting with a woman? You son of a bitch, which woman are you with right now? Your voice is so seductive that even I can't control myself."

They were too close, and Yan Yirou heard everything.

She stared at Gu Chenye in disbelief. Was his voice seductive? How come she didn't notice?

Gu Chenye raised an eyebrow, said nothing, and hung up the phone.

"Who is he? Is it okay if he hangs up?" Yan Yirou asked.

"Mu Zhihang." Gu Chenye didn't expect him to be back in the country. He said casually, "He said if I didn't want to answer, I shouldn't, but I did. So, to make up for this mistake, I had to hang up."

Yan Yirou blinked, as if there was nothing wrong with what she said.

But the name Mu Zhihang sounds familiar.

Mu Zhihang...

Yan Yirou's mind raced, but she still couldn't remember where she had seen him before. However, she was certain that he must be a minor supporting character in the book, otherwise she would have remembered him.

On the other side, Mu Zhihang was furious.

Apart from the eldest brother, who is upright, the other men in the Gu family are like sesame-filled dumplings, white on the outside and black on the inside.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, a glint of shrewdness flashing across his face. Perhaps he could go somewhere and wait to see who the woman with Gu San was.

Mu Zhihang suddenly stood up, walked to the coat rack, took out a suit jacket, put it on, and left the president's office.

His secretarial team was so disheartened by the fact that the president had left early again that they were completely numb to it.

But what can we do?

Money still needed to be earned, so the secretariat pretended not to see it and continued to bury themselves in their work.

Not long after Mu Zhihang arrived at Panlong Restaurant, Gu Chenye arrived with Yan Yirou. Since they had booked a private room in advance, they went straight upstairs to the private room at the end of the corridor.

Gu Chenye pushed open the door, looked around, and suddenly his gaze sharpened: "What are you doing here?"

Yan Yirou followed his gaze and saw a strange man.

She didn't recognize him, but Mu Zhihang recognized her. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he curled his lips into a smile: "So you're the eldest daughter of the Yan family!"

If he remembers correctly, the eldest daughter of the Yan family had a crush on Gu San's younger brother since childhood, right?

Why did she end up with Gu San?

Could it be that marrying into the Gu family has become her obsession? Is that why she sought out Gu San? Does Gu San know that she is a substitute?

Mu Zhihang's mind raced for only two or three seconds.

Yan Yirou didn't say anything, but instead looked up at Gu Chenye.

Before Gu Chenye could speak, Mu Zhihang provocatively said, "Gu San, there are no private rooms available today. You're not planning to take her to eat in the lobby, are you?"

The lobby was quite noisy, and some things were difficult to say, as people like them always booked private rooms.

Gu Chenye didn't really care where they ate, but he was annoyed that his nice date had been ruined: "Did you do this on purpose?"

Mu Zhihang did do it on purpose, but can he admit it?

He didn't want to be used as a punching bag by Gu San.

"Who did this on purpose? It's getting dark outside. Does that mean I can't come and eat?" Mu Zhihang said matter-of-factly.

Gu Chenye had known him for a long time. Even though he had been abroad for many years, the two still kept in touch. So just take what he said with a grain of salt. If you really believed it, you might get sold out one day.

Gu Chenye ignored him and looked down at Yan Yirou: "Are you hungry?"

Just as Yan Yirou was about to speak, she heard Mu Zhihang say, "Miss Yan, you may not know me. Let me introduce myself. I am Mu Zhihang, the eldest son of the Mu family."

Mu Zhihang, the eldest son of the Mu family?

Is he the older brother of the movie star Mu Liangzhou?

Yan Yirou's pupils suddenly contracted: "President Mu."

She remembered that in the book, the brothers had a falling out because of a woman...

Mu Liangzhou followed Wu Bao's second sister to a talent show to become a mentor. He only ever liked this one person, so the woman's name was obvious.

However, Shangguan Shuang was eliminated from the show, and later, one after another, things happened to the Shangguan family. Because of Shangguan Shuang's death, Mu Liangzhou lived a life of debauchery and never forgave his elder brother.

However, Shangguan Shuang is currently the most popular, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, she will definitely debut as the center.

Moreover, the Shangguan family members are all doing well.

On the contrary, the Shangguan family's enemies were either imprisoned or on their way to prison.

Thinking of this, Yan Yirou's tension instantly dissipated.

With Wu Bao around, she only needs to tell Wu Bao what she knows, and let Wu Bao worry about the rest. She's so smart, she'll definitely be fine.

Yan Yirou thought to herself, quite nonchalantly.

At this moment, Mu Zhihang said with a smile, "You are Gu San's woman, and I am Gu San's brother. Don't be so formal by calling me President Mu. I am older than Gu San, so you can call me Brother Mu from now on."

Yan Yirou came to her senses: "..."

Gu Chenye frowned: "Are you itching for a beating?"

Mu Zhihang coughed lightly twice: "I didn't say anything wrong, I am indeed ten days older than you."

Gu Chenye led Yan Yirou to a booth and let her sit inside. He then faced Mu Zhihang and chuckled, "Hehe, you were the one who followed me around calling me 'brother' back then. If you've forgotten, I don't mind helping you remember."

"I'm sorry, I mind!" Mu Zhihang said to himself.

To avoid Gu Sanzhen actually making a move, Mu Zhihang tactfully changed the subject: "Brother, I just got back to the country and received a call from Fugui saying there's a classmate reunion at the Zijinge Club tonight. I originally declined, but since you're back now, how about we have dinner and go hang out with them?"

Gu Chenye frowned slightly: "Go ahead, I don't have time."

He's leaving tomorrow morning and can't possibly leave Yan Yirou behind to see his old classmates, even though they haven't seen each other in a long time.

Mu Zhihang guessed he would refuse, but he looked at Yan Yirou and said seductively, "Don't you want to see what Gu San's rumored girlfriend looks like?"

Yan Yirou's eyes widened in surprise. Gu Chenye had a rumored girlfriend?

In an instant, Gu Chenye's face darkened, and under the table, he kicked Mu Zhihang, who had been sowing discord.

Ignoring Mu Zhihang's gasping for breath in pain, Gu Chenye turned his head to look at Yan Yirou's face and clarified, "He's talking nonsense. From childhood to adulthood, you've only ever been my girlfriend."
