Tsundere uke who mouths off but is honest in ...
Each other's only
The clerk was startled by his smile, but she quickly reacted and finalized the details with Gu Pei.
Lin Xunye walked around the mall and finally saw Xu Qian, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, in front of an ice cream shop.
Xu Qian was discussing with the store clerk which flavor of ice cream was the best, and he even boasted that he would eat three scoops in one go.
Lin Xunye knew he was flirting with girls after just a quick listen.
He walked over and patted Xu Qian on the shoulder: "Young Master Xu, is spring here?"
Xu Qian moved his arm but didn't throw it down. "I'm buying ice cream and want to discuss the origin of ice cream with the beautiful lady."
Lin Xunye didn't believe what he said.
Lin Xunye tapped him on the head, neither too hard nor too light. "Has your Nth spring begun again? What about that online lover from last time? Did you settle down?"
Hearing this, Xu Qian immediately looked bitter and resentful. He didn't buy the ice cream and pushed Lin Xunye out.
The two of them walked all the way to the entrance of the mall before Xu Qian replied, "It's resolved, I guess."
Xu Qian's words were ambiguous, so Lin Xunye didn't ask any further questions. Seeing that he still had the energy to flirt with girls, Lin Xunye knew that he was doing well.
This situation has happened before.
Xu Qian was chased for two blocks by his ex-boyfriend the day before, but the next day he asked them out for drinks and talked about how he escaped the pursuit.
Lin Xunye was no longer surprised by this.
Suddenly, Xu Qian's eyes turned and he scanned Lin Xunye from head to toe: "Brother, why are you here, and dressed so... casually?"
Lin Xunye was used to wearing a sleeveless shirt and red shorts when he went to bed at night. Now he was standing at the entrance of the mall, attracting a lot of attention.
Even when he accompanied Gu Pei into the store to choose a ring, the clerk looked at him with surprise several times.
Lin Xunye ate all the strawberries, then stuffed the basin into Xu Qian's hands and put his hands in his pockets: "I was dreaming, I traveled through time."
Hearing him say this, Xu Qian curled his lips, picked up the basin and took a look, and instantly stuttered: "Brother, brother, have you and Gu Pei got the marriage certificate?"
Lin Xunye hadn't told anyone about this, so when Xu Qian asked about it, he frowned and looked at Xu Qian with a questioning look.
Xu Qian turned the basin over and pointed at the words on it that looked like they had just been engraved and showed them to Lin Xunye.
The four big words "Happy Wedding" were like a bomb buried deep in the ground, catching Lin Xunye off guard.
Lin Xunye clenched his fists, anger rising.
He snatched the basin away and turned to walk towards the mall. Xu Qian was about to follow him when he suddenly smelled the scent of ginger.
A whiff of ginger scent wafted into his nostrils, and Xu Qian was drawn to it, forgetting Lin Xunye for a moment.
—
The mall has six floors in total, and the store where Gu Pei chose the ring is on the fifth floor, but Lin Xunye looked around twice and didn't see Gu Pei.
During this time, whenever he passed by the store, the clerk who greeted him would smile. When she smiled, Lin Xunye thought of the couple who said he was sawing wood, and his face immediately fell.
I walked from the sixth floor to the first floor again, but I didn’t find anyone. My cell phone rang first.
Lin Xunye swiped and the call was connected.
Li Ye: "Are you coming today or not? If you don't, I'll deduct your salary."
Lin Xunye thought back and remembered that he had impulsively said yesterday that he wanted to go to the agency to help out: "I won't go today. It's too late. I'll go another day."
There was silence on the other end for two seconds. Just as Lin Xunye was about to hang up, he heard Li Ye say, "Fortunately, I was smart and didn't schedule any classes for you."
Lin Xunye: “…”
Li Ye kept nagging him to go early tomorrow. Lin Xunye agreed with a few vague words. Just as he was about to hang up the phone, a burst of electric sound came from the other side. The buzzing sound almost made him throw the phone away.
He was about to say something when he heard Lin Youjia's voice change tone. He lowered his voice and said, "Lin Youjia, you are looking for trouble."
—
Li Ye called Lin Xunye while standing at the door of the agency. He watched the staff unloading the goods while arguing with Lin Xunye.
Before he could finish his words, a car stopped in front of the agency.
A man got out of the car. Li Ye didn't recognize him at first, but when the man stood in front of him with a conceited look on his face and asked him if he was calling Lin Xunye, he recognized him.
This person is Lin Xunye’s damn brother - Yoga Lin.
The two brothers don't look alike. Lin Xunye looks more like his mother, but his mother is most ashamed of this. She has said more than once that she wants to take Lin Xunye for plastic surgery, but it was eventually shelved.
Lin Youjia came up and tried to snatch the phone, but Li Ye refused to give it to him and dodged past him. However, the phone was knocked away and fell to the ground with a loud bang, and the screen went black.
There was a lot of information in the phone that Li Ye had been looking up all night, which made him feel distressed. Seeing that he was about to get serious, Lin Youjia put on a smile again and said that he just wanted to trouble him to make an appointment with Lin Xunye.
When the two were arguing, Lin Xunye came.
Lin Xunye clasped the basin tightly with his five fingers and didn't have time to put it down. He came up and hit Lin Youjia first.
With a "boom", the world seemed to be quiet.
Lin Youjia's smile froze on his face, and he pointed at Lin Xunye in disbelief: "You, you dare to hit me?"
The quality of the basin was very good, and the bottom of the basin didn't even sink when Lin Xunye let go.
"My hand slipped."
Lin Xunye threw the basin nonchalantly, and it hit Lin Youjia's feet.
Lin Youjia covered his head, took two steps back, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything because of the people gathered around him.
Lin Xunye didn't take him seriously and didn't even plan to attack him again.
More and more people gathered outside the organization. Lin Xunye glanced at them casually, and finally his eyes fixed on the car parked behind Yoga Lin.
The car door opened and the person Lin Xunye had been looking for for half an hour got out.
Gu Pei closed the door expressionlessly and stood behind Yoga Lin. His cold gaze was like a sharp knife, cutting Yoga Lin to pieces.
"Manager Lin, Lin's company can't get any projects, so that's why you're so idle?"
Gu Pei raised his eyelids slightly, and his emotionless gaze fell on Lin Xunye, then like the thawed river water in winter, his endless affection continued to pour out.
Lin Xunye shuddered three times and looked away.
Gu Pei must have taken the wrong medicine.
This look is exactly the same as the one in the cheesy romance dramas he watched out of boredom. It's really scary.
Lin Youjia had never expected Gu Pei's arrival.
Today he just wanted to force Lin Xunye out and threaten him to go back to the Lin family. But Gu Pei was a variable.
The bodyguard hiding in the dark did not come out when he saw that the situation was not right. Lin Youjia faced three people alone and was so nervous that his back was sweating.
"Mr. Gu, I'm just here to pick up my brother. My mother is sick, so as her biological son, I need to be there, right?"
The two "biological children" were bitten very badly, and Lin Xunye's face looked extremely pale.
He would rather have never been a biological child than be bound by the illusory blood ties like now.
Li Ye was explaining to the people around him. The crowd dispersed a little, but there were still people standing nearby watching the show.
Lin Xunye felt like a monkey, locked in a cage and admired. It wasn't even admiration; he was just a big, rambunctious monkey with a bad temper.
A snort broke the deadlock, and Lin Xunye looked up in surprise.
Gu Pei snorted again, "I'll check with President Lin later. As for the person, you can't take him away today."
The words sounded strange, as if I was his property.
Lin Xunye interrupted them, "I won't go back. Tell Lin Gaoyuan that I'm married and an outsider."
Before Gu Pei could say anything stranger, Lin Xunye pulled him into the car.
Seeing this, the driver turned around and smiled at Lin Xunye. Then, in the look in Lin Xunye's eyes that seemed to want to get off the car very much, he gave him a reassurance: "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I've already gone to the driving school for further training. I promise that what happened last time won't happen again."
Although Lin Xunye didn't quite believe it, the driver's eyes were so determined that he looked like he wanted to join the party.
He paused and said, "Okay, I'll believe it this time."
It's undeniable that the driver's driving skills have improved and he's very stable, but Lin Xunye still prefers to sit in the passenger seat of Gu Pei. Moreover, although he has never smelled pheromones on Gu Pei, he has an inexplicable feeling of wanting to rely on him.
Could it be that Gu Pei had cast a spell on him? !
—
In the car, in the narrow space, the driver raised the partition without warning.
The air freshener smell was not strong, but it enveloped Lin Xunye. He suddenly had an absurd idea.
"Gu Pei, your pheromones don't smell like air freshener, do they?"
Gu Pei paused as he took out something and said, "No."
"Then what does your pheromone smell like?" Lin Xunye continued to ask.
He was really a little curious.
Gu Pei skipped the topic, took out a small round box and opened it in front of Lin Xunye.
A pair of pure gold rings were exposed to the air. Lin Xunye's eyes flickered slightly, and his ring finger subconsciously shrank.
Could this be the wedding ring that Gu Pei chose?
Gold is such an old-fashioned color, but Gu Pei likes it?
"Lin Xunye."
When his name was called, Lin Xunye trembled all over. He looked up and met Gu Pei's eyes, which were filled with dark emotions.
The azure color instantly turned into a dark ocean. Lin Xunye stared at him blankly, his eyelashes fluttering slightly. A small shadow covered his eyes, making his dark pupils look even deeper.
The continued eye contact made the air heated up. Lin Xunye put down his tapping leg and looked around uncomfortably.
So strange.
Why do I feel so ashamed that I'm about to be confessed to...
The atmosphere was ambiguous. Gu Pei opened his thin lips slightly. Lin Xunye blushed, but he heard it clearly.
Gu Pei said: "Aye, this is the couple's ring I gave you."
"Even though we're not technically a couple yet, I think you deserve one."
The voice stopped abruptly. Lin Xunye was about to laugh it off when his hand was taken away.
There were no signs.
The slender white knuckles were grasped, and a gold ring was pushed to the base of the finger.
Very cool.
Lin Xunye curled his fingers and tried to pull them out, but failed.
The box was placed on Lin Xunye's legs, and another ring with a slightly larger circumference lay quietly inside, as if waiting for Lin Xunye to pick it up.
Lin Xunye didn't move. He always felt that something was not right.
They are obviously a fake couple who are actually married, so is this...right?
"Can you put it on for me?" Gu Pei touched the base of his finger, and his hot body temperature warmed the ring. Lin Xunye's curled fingers opened and were instantly held in his hand.
"Aye, I want you to put it on for me."
