Coslin finally recovered his hearing and IQ, and jumped off Gu Xian as if his butt was on fire.
He looked at Gu Xian strangely again, then turned around and ran out quickly.
Gu Xian: “……?”
Why did he feel that this little brat didn't seem sad, but happy?
Xie Huaihong knocked on the door and walked in with a mischievous look on his face: "Sister-in-law, you're a little fast."
"Are you blind? Can't you see that I didn't do anything?" Gu Xian and Xie Huaihong could be said to know each other, but they were definitely not familiar with each other. Xie Huaihong was talking nonsense, so of course he wouldn't be polite to him.
Xie Huaihong, who has no experience of fighting with Gu Xian for more than ten years, obviously does not know that today's society has become so dangerous that even the eldest son of the Xie family will be completely disrespected by some people.
He frowned, but immediately smiled again, saying, whether in praise or criticism, "Just a joke. Young Master Gu's temper is indeed well-deserved."
"Haha, that's because you're ignorant." Gu Xian looked at Xie Huaihong's unhappy face and sneered mercilessly, "It's just a joke."
Xie Huaihong abandoned his false politeness and said with a stern face, "Gu Xian, understand your own identity and don't be so arrogant."
"Who's more arrogant than you, Young Master Xie, who came uninvited and entered my office without permission, and even lectured me, his master?" Gu Xian picked up his phone and continued his arrogance. "If you have something to say, say it. If not, get out of here."
"..." Xie Huaihong looked at him gloomily for a moment, then suddenly smiled again, "Gu Xian, I know you didn't marry Xie Yunjing voluntarily. Do you want to know why he insisted on marrying you?"
The very beginning premise is wrong.
Gu Xian glanced at Xie Huaihong with a dull look, and had only one word to say about his pretense: "Oh."
“…”
Xie Huaihong, relying on the excellent psychological qualities of being born into a wealthy family, continued, "This story has to start with Xie Yunjing's and my grandmother. The old lady was partial and wanted Xie Yunjing to be the next head of the Xie family. In the past two years, her health has been getting worse and worse, so she has become more aggressive and made up excuses like 'Xie Yunjing will die soon if he doesn't get married before he turns 25.' She was forcing both Xie Yunjing and the old man to marry someone she calculated to be compatible with him."
He paused, then snorted indignantly, "What's this 'horoscope compatibility'? It's just picking which family can provide Xie Yunjing with more help in his bid to become the next Patriarch."
"Now you know why Xie Yunjing wants to marry you." Xie Huaihong crossed his legs, folded his hands on his knees, and his expression was full of arrogance. "Although your Gu family is not as good as before, after all, the foundation is still there. Besides, your Gu family and our Xie family have a good relationship with our ancestors. The old man will also remember the old friendship."
“…Gu Xian?”
"Stop making noise!" Gu Xian's fingers moved quickly, and it was obvious that he was playing games. "I'm busy."
As the eldest son of the Xie family, Xie Huaihong was not only flattered but also certainly not treated so rudely. However, he didn't get angry. Instead, he simply grabbed the coffee on the table, gulped down half a cup, and quietly waited for Gu Xian.
Not only did he win, but he also got the MVP. Gu Xian's mood improved a lot.
Xie Huaihong smiled again, as if he didn't mind at all that Gu Xian had left him alone for more than ten minutes: "Are you done?"
Gu Xian looked up in surprise: "You're still here?"
Xie Huaihong was choked by the question "Did I win?"
"Did you hear what I just said?"
"I heard it."
Xie Huaihong finally figured it out. If he continued to beat around the bush with Gu Xian, he would only suffocate himself to death.
He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. "Are you willing to be used by Xie Yunjing, your mortal enemy, as a stepping stone to take the position of Patriarch of the Xie Family?"
Gu Xian made a thoughtful expression: "That's really unpleasant."
Finally getting the answer he wanted, Xie Huaihong felt relieved, and the smile on his face became more genuine.
"How about joining forces with me to stop Xie Yunjing?"
Gu Xian asked curiously, "How can we join forces? You should know that Xie Yunjing and I are actually using each other. Neither my father nor your old man would agree to my divorce."
"Of course you don't have to divorce Xie Yunjing." Xie Huaihong's true face became more and more exposed. "I mean, it is indeed difficult for you to divorce Xie Yunjing. But not being able to divorce has its advantages. Now that you and Xie Yunjing are living together, can't you just know what he does every day? Just tell me his daily updates, and leave the rest to me."
"This is a worry-free job." Gu Xian placed the phone upside down on his stomach and touched his chin. "Then what's in it for me?"
Xie Huaihong looked unsurprisingly calm as he took out a check and pushed it towards Gu Xian: "Five million. There will be more later depending on the value of the information you provided."
"Wow, that's generous." Gu Xian picked up the check and flicked it. The special paper made a crisp sound. "Okay, I'll take it."
"but."
When Xie Huaihong showed a satisfied expression, Gu Xian changed the subject.
"Xie Yunjing and I are now married in name only. Aren't you afraid that I'll tell him?"
Xie Huaihong smiled confidently: "Can you?"
Gu Xian also laughed: "No."
After finishing Guangyao’s welcome dinner, Gu Xian and Li Yuqiu went for a stroll in the bar before returning to his and Xie Yunjing’s so-called new “home”.
After greeting Kang Bo, who had been waiting for a long time, Gu Xian entered the bedroom and collapsed directly onto the bed. For a nerd who usually stayed at home for long periods of time playing games, the amount of exercise and socializing he had today was far beyond his usual level.
Xie Yunjing came out of the bathroom after taking a shower and frowned when he saw this scene: "Gu Xian, at least change your clothes before going to bed."
Gu Xian lay on the bed pretending to be dead. When he heard Xie Yunjing's footsteps approaching, he suddenly said, "Xie Huaihong came to see me today and asked me to be his spy and report to him what you did every day."
Xie Yunjing's footsteps stopped.
"Listen for yourself."
In order to prevent Xie Yunjing from suspecting that he was playing a trick on him, Gu Xian threw his phone away, and Xie Huaihong's voice rang out from the speaker.
"This story has to start with Xie Yunjing's and my grandmother. The old lady is partial..."
The recording finished playing quickly, and Xie Yunjing asked, "Why are you telling me?"
"What's the point of this?" Gu Xian turned over, raised his head, and smiled at him contemptuously, "I can deal with you by myself. There's no need to join forces with others."
The collar of Gu Xian's shirt, which had the top two buttons unbuttoned, was even more open, and the fair skin on his collarbone appeared to have a porcelain-like texture under the soft light at the head of the bed.
Xie Yunjing looked at him for a moment, then silently looked away.
"Also, I have a business deal I want to discuss with you." Gu Xian fished out the check from Xie Huaihong from his trouser pocket. The originally crisp paper had somehow become wrinkled by him. "You heard it just now. Xie Huaihong will pay according to the information I gave him. How about we work together? I'll take 70% and you take 30%?"
"Why am I number three?"
"No way!" Gu Xian shouted, "You think this is not enough? Seriously, I agreed with you to sell information to Xie Huaihong, but you can use this information to deal with Xie Huaihong! I helped you get rid of a strong competitor for the family heir, isn't this enough for me to get an extra 20%! And if I don't tell you this, you will be screwed and cry in your quilt!"
Gu Xian even raised his hands and made a threatening gesture.
Xie Yunjing frowned, as if disapproving of his childish behavior: "I thought you should be able to see that since he can come to you to spy, it means that dealing with him is not difficult."
"Then tell me whether you want to do this deal or not." Gu Xian fell back, muttering, "It will make it easier to deal with Xie Huaihong, and there's money to be made. Even a fool would know which one to choose."
"..." Xie Yunjing took the check from his hand and confirmed that it was indeed from Xie Huaihong. "Transfer the 1.5 million to me later."
That's how the business is done.
You can make hundreds of millions just by saying a few words, so this business is definitely lucrative.
Gu Xian happily wanted to take the check back.
Xie Yunjing, however, passed over his palm and flicked the check at his head: "Also, you can hide in the quilt and cry by yourself, don't think I can do the same."
"You fart!"
Gu Xian was furious and snatched the check back and put it away. He glared at Xie Yunjing, as if he was looking for a place to return the blow, but in the end, he succumbed to laziness and collapsed without doing anything.
Xie Yunjing suddenly grabbed his arm and said, "Go take a shower."
Not to mention that he still had revenge for the "check bullet", even under normal circumstances, Gu Xian would never listen to him obediently.
“No!”
Although Xie Yunjing has been exercising, it is still impossible for him to lift an adult male with one hand, not to mention that Gu Xian is clinging on like a boneless person.
He warned, "Are you going or not?"
Gu Xian gathered a ball of quilt and came over: "Whoever wants to go can go...fuck!"
Before he could finish his words, he was frightened by Xie Yunjing's action of picking him up and cursed out loud.
"Let me go!"
Although Gu Xian's struggle was as useless as a kitten, Xie Yunjing still threatened: "If you move again, I will throw you down."
Falling vertically from a height of over a meter was definitely not a painless experience, and Gu Xian knew Xie Yunjing could do what he said. He stopped struggling, but he still said, "If you don't let go, I'll scream for Kang Bo!"
Xie Yunjing was completely unmoved: "You shout."
He even maliciously reminded her: "How do you think Cumber will react?"
Gu Xian: “…”
For Kang Bo, who came to monitor the couple, when he saw Xie Yunjing hugging him, he probably just thought they were flirting.
Damn...flirting!
There is no distance between the bed and the bathroom door.
Xie Yunjing put him down, pushed him into the bathroom, and closed the door.
Gu Xian pried the door handle in a final struggle: "Let me out!"
The door handle did not move at all as Xie Yunjing held it on the other side.
"Wash yourself clean before coming out."
Gu Xian cursed a few more times, and finally the sound of water was heard in the bathroom.
Xie Yunjing returned to the bedside, picked up Gu Xian’s cell phone which was still on the bed, and prepared to put it on the bedside table.
The darkened screen showed his face clearly.
"I can handle you by myself."
Xie Yunjing suddenly looked away, as if he had been burned, and dared not look at himself on the phone screen again.
The author has something to say: Xiao Xie: He loves me so much.
Xiao Gu: You fart!
