Chen Yuan sneered, staring at Qin Mingyan and said, "If I don't deceive you, how can I make you admit what you did in person, right?"
Qin Mingyan was so angry that he was puffing his beard and glaring, and he was even tricked into talking.
"Chen Yuan! I'm warning you once again, don't pay attention to the cat, otherwise I will never let you go!"
Knowing she was in the wrong, she uttered some harsh words, picked up the Persian cat and went upstairs.
The next day, Shen Yuan received a call from the designer early in the morning.
"Child, the clothes you ordered are ready. When are you free to come and pick them up?"
Chen Yuan paused. Tonight was her grandmother's birthday party. She thought the dress was not ready yet and was thinking of going out to buy one in the afternoon. She didn't expect Designer Wang to be so timely.
"Auntie Wang, I'll be there this afternoon."
The other end responded with a "OK", and after hanging up the phone, Shen Yuan washed up and went downstairs to have breakfast.
When she went downstairs, Gu Jisui was already sitting at the dining table. Chen Yuan sat down next to him, raised her milk and took a sip.
"Tonight is grandma's birthday party. I'll pick you up in the evening."
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment and put down the cup. "No, I can come back by myself. You just need to arrange grandma's birthday party at home to avoid any mistakes."
Gu Jisui paused. What Chen Yuan said made sense. Besides, he was not at ease leaving his grandmother's birthday party to someone else.
"Okay, then come back early."
Chen Yuan hummed lightly, and after breakfast, the two went their separate ways.
After working in the pet shop for the whole morning, Chen Yuan didn't even have time to eat lunch before taking a taxi to pick up the finished clothes.
During rush hour, the half-hour journey took more than two hours, and the sun was almost setting when she arrived in the town.
"Auntie Wang, I'm here to get the clothes."
Shen Yuan knocked on the door, and after a while, Aunt Wang's voice rang out along with the sound of the door opening.
"Here comes my child. Come in and sit down. Auntie will get you some clothes."
Chen Yuan said okay and walked in. Aunt Wang left for a moment and came back with a packaging bag in her hand.
"Take it out and see if you like it. If you think there's something wrong, I'll fix it for you right away."
She took the bag from Aunt Wang and took out the clothes folded inside.
After taking a look, Chen Yuan felt that Aunt Wang's craftsmanship was indeed extraordinary, and the clothes she made gave people a particularly amazing feeling.
"Auntie, you have great craftsmanship. Every stitch is done with great care."
Aunt Wang smiled and said, "You are such a talkative kid. If you like it, take it. It will be hard to get a taxi if you are late."
After saying hello, Chen Yuan took her bag and left the town. Aunt Wang was right, it was indeed difficult to get a taxi at this time.
Chen Yuan had no choice but to walk for a while to see if he could get a taxi ahead.
She walked for a while and saw that the traffic was okay, so Shen Yuan stood by the roadside waiting for a passing taxi.
But she waited for a long time and didn't see any sign of a taxi. She was about to take out her cell phone to ask Special Assistant Song to come and pick her up.
But before she took out her cell phone, she heard a shrill sound in her ears. She looked up and saw a motorcycle parked in front of her.
A man got off the motorcycle and strode towards her. Before Shen Yuan could react, she saw the man grab the bag in her hand.
Chen Yuan came to her senses and immediately held on tightly, refusing to let go. During the struggle, she was pushed to the ground and the bag in her hand was snatched away.
She tried to stand up, but her ankle was in unbearable pain, probably sprained.
Chen Yuan could only watch the man ride away on his motorcycle. She wanted to stand up in pain.
Just as he moved, a sports car stopped steadily in front of him. Shen Yuan recognized the sports car; it was Xi Yan's car.
But why is he here?
She was still in a daze when Xi Yan got off the bus and stood in front of her, looking down at her.
"Why do I always look so embarrassed every time I meet you?"
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment. She wanted to ask why she always met him when she was in a mess.
Seeing that Shen Yuan didn't say anything, Xi Yan continued, "Can you still get up?"
She came back to her senses and shook her head honestly, "I think I sprained it."
Xi Yan paused, then shook his head helplessly, "Really not."
As he said this, he leaned over and picked up Shen Yuan from the ground.
At the Gu family, Grandma Gu’s birthday banquet has already begun, but there is no sign of Shen Yuan. Many people are secretly wondering whether she and Gu Jisui are having a relationship problem, or whether the Gu family dislikes her.
But Grandma Gu looked worried, as she knew that Chen Yuan would never miss her birthday party for no reason.
On the other side, Xu Wenlou hid in the dressing room and made a phone call. There was a heavy male voice on the other end.
"Ms. Xu, everything is done."
Hearing this, Xu Wenlou looked very proud. After hanging up the phone, she walked to the banquet hall in high heels.
"Grandma, why hasn't Shen Yuan come yet?"
Xu Wenlou stood next to Grandma Gu and deliberately raised his voice.
"Today is your 60th birthday, and you've always been so kind to her, how could she be absent?"
Grandma Gu frowned and said, "Yuanyuan must be busy, otherwise she would definitely not miss coming."
Seeing this, Qin Mingyan sneered and added fuel to the fire, "What's wrong? I think she just doesn't take you seriously. It's because you and Ah Sui spoil her too much on weekdays. She didn't even come to your birthday party."
"Grandma, don't worry about it. Come and see the gift I prepared for you."
Grandma Gu just took it and took a look at it, showing no interest at all. Xu Wenlou was angry and embarrassed.
Chen Yuan had not returned for a long time, and Gu Jisui made several calls but no one answered. He suddenly became anxious and immediately asked Special Assistant Song to go out and look for her.
Xi Yan sent Shen Yuan to the hospital, where the doctor applied a cold compress and prescribed some plaster.
After coming out of the hospital, Chen Yuan wanted to give him the medicine, but was rejected by Xi Yan.
He opened the car door and said, "Let's go. I'll take you home."
She paused and said, "I can take a taxi myself. I won't bother you."
Xi Yan smiled and said, "It's not a bother. I also want to go celebrate Madam Gu's birthday."
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment before compromising. After all, it was not easy to get a taxi at this time.
In just a moment, the car stopped at the Gu family compound. Chen Yuan limped out of the car. Seeing that she had difficulty moving, Xi Yan supported her.
"I can walk by myself, you don't need to support me."
If Xi Yan supported him in, Qin Mingyan's gossip would be unavoidable.
Xi Yan paused, then let go and put his hands in his pockets. "Okay, don't blame me for not helping you if you fall."
Having said that, when Chen Yuan limped in, Xi Yan deliberately slowed down his pace and almost walked side by side with him.
When the two appeared together, everyone was in an uproar, and they were all speculating about the relationship between the young lady of the Gu family and Xi Yan.
At the same time, Gu Jisui's face suddenly darkened and he stared at the two of them.
Grandma Gu didn't think much about it. She was relieved to see that Shen Yuan was safe and sound. She frowned after seeing her slow movements.
"Yuanyuan, what's wrong with your foot? How did it become like this?"
