Gu Yi's pale face sank slightly, and he remained silent.
Ye Chu's heart suddenly froze, and his lips were tightly pursed, as if he was about to cry in the next second, and he even held his breath.
The air in the room seemed to freeze.
Only a few seconds had passed, but Ye Chu felt like several centuries had passed.
"Pfft." Gu Yi's heavy expression suddenly relaxed, and he actually laughed out loud, his expression instantly restored to doting and gentle.
The air also instantly changed from cloudy to sunny.
Ye Chu: "..."
Gu Yi smiled softly, his clear eyes carrying unspeakable doting, and said: "Look at you, you are still so easily fooled."
"..." It took Ye Chu a long time to come back to her senses from her shock, but she was not as relaxed as Gu Yi at this moment.
Before, with Gu Yi's perfect performance, Ye Chu would definitely believe that he was teasing her.
But now, with Li Moqian's words...
Ye Chu really didn't want to believe it, and tried hard to deceive herself, but she really didn't lose her mind.
She couldn't laugh, nor could she relax, and still looked at Gu Yi heavily.
Gu Yi took advantage of her helpless look and chuckled, "Why are you suddenly sure that I'm not in good health? Where did you hear it from?"
Ye Chu did not hide it: "Li Moqian told me."
Gu Yi smiled, "You believe what Li Moqian said?"
Ye Chu said nothing.
Gu Yi said, "How can the affairs of the Gu family be investigated by others? Not even Li Moqian can find out."
Ye Chu said, "What about Xiao Beichen?"
Gu Yi still smiled, "Xiao Beichen can't find out either."
Ye Chu did not ignore the fleeting pause on his face.
Just for a moment.
If Ye Chu had not been suspicious and stared at Gu Yi, he would never have seen it.
And Gu Yi instantly returned to his doting and gentle attitude, as if that momentary pause was an illusion of Ye Chu.
Ye Chu was extremely anxious.
He was afraid that she would worry and would not admit it at all.
And he didn't want to admit it, so she had no chance of getting anything out of him.
Ye Chu sighed helplessly and decided to go back and ask Xiao Beichen.
Li Moqian would not go to investigate Gu Yi for no reason. It must be Xiao Beichen's instruction. You can know the details by asking Xiao Beichen.
Ye Chu had made up his mind, so he would not ask Gu Yi to get to the bottom of it, so as to avoid making Gu Yi unhappy.
So Ye Chu tried to calm down and smiled at Gu Yi, "I'm glad you're okay. Maybe Li Moqian was just joking and scaring me."
"Li Moqian really likes to play tricks on people." Gu Yi smiled and didn't continue the topic.
The two chatted for a while, and Ye Chu went back soon with a heavy heart.
Gu Yi was gentle and doting throughout the whole process, which was really flawless.
The smile on Gu Yi's face quickly faded until Ye Chu disappeared from his sight.
The housekeeper stepped forward, his face full of worry and distress, and said: "Young Master, are you still going to keep Miss Ye a secret? I'm afraid you can't keep it a secret this time."
Gu Yi closed his eyes tiredly and leaned against the head of the bed, "It's better to keep it a secret for a while."
As he said this, Gu Yi couldn't help but think of Ye Chu's look of not saying anything just now when he saw through the truth.
He sighed secretly, and then the corners of his pale lips curled up slightly.
The girl he liked was indeed extraordinary, and she was so smart that he didn't know what to do.
The housekeeper looked at the slightly raised corners of his young master's lips, and his heart became heavier.
The office of the president of Xiao Corporation.
The man had a cold expression, and his fingers tapped on the table, a whole "cut whoever gets close to me".
Qiao Sen pushed the door open tremblingly, and seeing his young master's murderous face, his legs instinctively moved back to escape.
President Xiao shot him a murderous look.
Special Assistant Qiao's legs moved forward instantly, and he ran to President Xiao, and deftly pushed the stack of documents in front of President Xiao.
"Young Master, this is the property details under Gu Yi's name that you asked me to investigate. Please take a look." Qiao Sen looked flattering.
Xiao Beichen glanced at him.
Special Assistant Qiao's back was sweating, and he hurriedly said: "I definitely didn't want to escape just now, no, I definitely didn't want to retreat! I just sprained my ankle just now! I promise!"
President Xiao glanced at him coldly and picked up the document to look at it.
Qiao Sen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but saw his young master looking at him with dissatisfaction and disdain.
Qiao Sen: "..."
President Xiao looked at him with disdain and pursed his lips and said, "Are you free?"
"No, I'm busy. I'm going out to arrange a meeting now!" Qiao Sen realized that his young master was disdainful of him, and he quickly responded and ran away.
After closing the door, Assistant Qiao timidly glanced behind him with a bitter face.
A man who quarrels with his girlfriend is not to be trifled with!
So, when will Miss Ye come to coax his young master back?
Assistant Qiao cried silently and called Ye Chu.
"Ha--"
Miss Ye, who was mopping the floor in the seaside villa, sneezed suddenly.
Ye Chu rubbed her nose, looked around blankly, then stood up for a moment, then quickly threw down the mop, and ran to the door to see -
President Xiao was thinking about her, so he came back?
But there was no sign of President Xiao.
Ye Chu was depressed in a second, and returned to the room with her head down, picked up the mop, and continued to mop the floor listlessly.
She had been mopping the floor for more than an hour. It was
not because of anything else, but because she was upset and mopping the floor relieved her stress.
After leaving Gu Yi, she was anxious and rushed directly to Xiao's, but after calming down a little, she was scared.
Xiao Beichen was jealous and angry because of her relationship with Gu Yi and was about to break up with her. If she dared to go to Xiao's to find him with Gu Yi in her mind, wouldn't he kick her out directly?
Ye Chu endured it and finally suppressed the shock in her heart and went back to Linhai Villa.
Since she was not kicked out by President Xiao, she mopped the floor all over the house in Linhai Villa. No one knew what she was thinking.
While mopping the floor listlessly, Ye Chu conducted a deep reflection.
She thought a lot, starting from the moment she met Gu Yi again, and then reflected on herself.
It was normal for Xiao Beichen to be angry. After all, as a man, how could he tolerate his woman having contact with other men. And she was obviously close to Gu Yi, it would be strange if President Xiao was not angry.
Ye Chu felt that regarding the issue of Gu Yi, she must calmly and kindly reason with President Xiao.
She believed that Xiao Beichen was a reasonable person.
Moreover, Xiao Beichen doted on her to no end, so she could always convince Xiao Beichen, right?
But how could she convince President Xiao gently and make him accept it?
If it were easy, she wouldn't have had to quarrel with Xiao Beichen before.
As for the tried and tested sleeping strategy...
thinking back to the last time, she clearly instinctively wanted to beast him, but he was convinced that she was going to use the sleeping strategy to make him agree to her and Gu Yi's relationship, and in the end, President Xiao was so angry that he could abstain from her, and when she took the initiative, President Xiao got even angrier.
Obviously, the sleeping strategy won't work.
Ye Chu racked his brains, but couldn't come up with a solution for a long time.
The office of the president of Xiao Corporation.
The man picked up the landline and said coldly: "Come in."
Before he put down the landline receiver, the door of the office opened, and Qiao Sen's frightened face of survival appeared.
Then Qiao Sen ran to him with a flattering smile and stood at attention: "Master, please give me your orders!"
Xiao Beichen: "...I am a cannibal?"
Qiao Sen answered loudly: "Yes!"
President Xiao gave him a death stare.
Qiao Sen almost knelt on the spot, wishing to cut his tongue and steam it.
Fortunately, President Xiao did not dwell on this issue and said coldly: "Go check the contents of Gu Yi's will."
Qiao Sen: "Yes!"
Xiao Beichen: "...Are you a military officer?"
"Yes, no, it's not!" Assistant Qiao's tongue was tied, but fortunately it was corrected in the end.
Xiao Beichen glared at him murderously.
This time he was really angry.
Special Assistant Qiao threw out a killing hand-chime loudly: "I just saw Miss Ye returning to Linhai Villa! Miss Ye must miss the young master very much and is waiting for him to come back!"
The volume was even louder than that of the military officer.
But Qiao Sen was not afraid at all.
Sure enough.
The murderous aura on the face of President Xiao opposite him was extinguished in a second, and quickly covered with layers of suspicious colors...
