☆, Chapter 13: Breaking off the Engagement
Bai Yifan had naturally noticed such an intense gaze a long time ago. He adjusted his sitting position slightly and then slowly raised his head.
Gu Ran quickly looked away before he looked over, pretending to be looking at the computer, but still secretly glancing at him out of the corner of her eye.
“…”Bai Yifan.
He didn't really want to think about it, but...
As a well-known rich second-generation in the circle, the fifteen-year-old daughter of his family's maid dared to seduce him. In the past twenty years, Bai Yifan has met many people with ulterior motives and knows what it feels like for others to be interested in him.
However, Gu Ran is different from those coquettish bitches out there. She is Gu Ximing's sister...
Bai Yifan had no choice but to pretend that he didn't notice anything, lowered his eyes and continued to fiddle with his phone.
Gu Ran secretly watched him while talking to the system.
"So what is this system for? Is there any task I need to complete?"
"Qiqi is an auxiliary system that can help the host understand all the plots and all the characters. Other functions will be unlocked later."
The system's voice was filled with pride. "Host, you don't need to complete any tasks. This world is a world of experience. Host, you only need to experience the wonderful life of a rich girl. This is also your deepest obsession before you die."
I see…
Gu Ran suddenly realized that this was how he had entered the book.
It seems that the obsession of the poor is really deep enough!
"Since we want to experience the world, why don't you just let me go to the Bai family and be Bai Yifan's sister? Wouldn't that allow me to experience a better life?" Gu Ran wondered.
As the son of destiny, he is definitely different from others. Even the three heroines in the original book have to work for the Bai family.
"In this world, only the host's original soul is missing. The host cannot be transformed into anyone they wish," the system said seriously. "However, the host can change the plot on their own and live a better and more affluent life."
"Okay." Gu Ran understood.
In fact, she was just talking casually and didn't really want to move to the Bai family.
The Gu family was very nice to her. Although it was only a brief contact, she already liked them very much.
Since the system allows her to change the plot and the system helps her understand the world, it becomes much easier to change the fate of the villain's family.
As long as the Gu family does not follow the same ending as the original book, there is no difference to her whether they are the richest or the third richest.
"Then Qiqi, can you help me see what Chen An is doing? Are he and Gu Lan still so inseparable?"
Gu Ran decided to test the system's capabilities and first tried a dish with Chen An.
"Host, please wait a moment..." The system was silent for a moment and began to report the situation to Gu Ran.
"Gu Lan resigned from the position of general manager of the hotel this morning and is now packing up the villa. She plans to hand over to Gu Ximing this afternoon."
"Chen An wanted to ask for leave to help Gu Lan clean up, but his boss didn't approve it."
"After Gu Lan severed ties with the Gu family, she no longer had any privileges in the hotel, and no one gave Chen An face. Because Chairman Gu had given a heads-up, the hotel's colleagues avoided Chen An whenever possible and wouldn't communicate with him unless they had something to do."
"Chen An got a bad rap at work today, and now he's in the bathroom cursing in front of the mirror to vent his frustration."
Wow, he knows so much details.
"You're quite amazing." Gu Ran exclaimed.
The system became even more proud. If it were in human form, it would have puffed out its chest by now.
"Who else does the host want to know about?"
"I..." Gu Ran was about to answer when Gu Ximing pushed the door open and interrupted her.
Gu Ran quickly sat up straight, looking as if he was concentrating on looking at the computer.
Feeling that the burning gaze had moved away, Bai Yifan breathed a sigh of relief, put his phone back in his pocket and stood up from the sofa.
"Sorry for the long wait." Gu Ximing was in a good mood at the moment, with a bright smile on his face.
"I just went to a meeting. You were so anxious. How could you be on the road while on the phone? You didn't even tell me you were coming in advance."
"I want to talk to you about something. Since I'm not busy right now, I came directly here." Bai Yifan said, secretly observing Gu Ran out of the corner of his eye while speaking.
Sure enough, Gu Ran stared at him with that burning gaze again, thinking that he didn't know.
"What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?" Gu Ximing put one hand in his pocket and glanced in Gu Ran's direction. "Let's go to the coffee shop downstairs to chat. There's a new one downstairs in the building. The environment is pretty good."
If Gu Ran was not there, Gu Ximing would have chatted directly in the office, but seeing that Bai Yifan had something important to discuss, Gu Ximing was afraid that Gu Ran would feel uncomfortable listening here, so he found another place.
Bai Yifan also agreed and said, "Let's go."
As he said this, he took a step and walked towards the door.
Gu Ximing slapped him and said, "Say hello to my sister before you leave! You rude guy!"
"Sorry." Bai Yifan stopped, turned slowly, and nodded to Gu Ran who was sitting behind the desk. "Xiao Ran, do you want to go downstairs and have a drink together?"
"No need." Gu Ran waved his hands repeatedly, pointing to the computer and said, "I still have some information to look at, you guys chat."
"See you next time." Bai Yifan smiled and waved at her.
"Gu Ran, take a good look at the projects I gave you. I'll be back to check them when I'm done!" Gu Ximing said, and then left with Bai Yifan.
Gu Ran breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed back on the soft chair.
Maybe it was because the system said it was borrowing Bai Yifan's luck, which made Gu Ran always feel guilty, as if he had stolen something from Bai Yifan. He always secretly looked at Bai Yifan, and then quickly turned back before being discovered.
"Hey, can't you try another way to charge?" Gu Ran sighed and said to the system in his heart.
"There's no other solution for now. If we can contact the main world in the future, we won't need to rely on luck..." The system was also a little frustrated. "Qiqi will try our best!"
Pretty cute...
Gu Ran had no way to deal with this cute system, so he pulled the system together to do the real work.
"Since you know so much, you should make good use of it."
"I'll read you some scripts first, and you can check which projects will be a hit and which will flop..."
"Listen, the first one, the summer of love..."
…
Gu Ximing didn't come back until an hour later.
It was almost noon, so he took Gu Ran out for a meal and then drove her home.
In the afternoon, he still had to hand over the house and hotel to Gu Lan, so he didn't plan to go back to the company. He planned to take a nap and then leave directly from home.
[I don't know what Bai Yifan was talking to Third Brother about, but they talked for quite a while.]
Gu Ran sat in the passenger seat, his hand on his chin, watching the scenery passing by outside the window, and talking to the system in his mind.
"Host wants to know, Qiqi goes to check..."
The system cherishes the opportunity to show itself very much and will tell you the results after a few seconds.
"We found out the host, Bai Yifan came here to break off the engagement..."
