After she wrote down Mr. Gu’s phone number, she found a time to call him.
At this moment, Gu Chen was taking a shower in the bathroom, and the sound of water almost covered up the sound of the mobile phone in the room.
Lin Xin just came in and heard the voice, so she shouted towards the door, "Xiaochen, you have a phone call."
Gu Chen looked slightly stunned, and his tone gradually revealed a hint of indifference, "Help me answer it."
Lin Xin had no choice but to pick up the phone, but before she could say anything, the other party spoke first.
"Hello, Mr. Gu, I'm Lu Wanying. I don't know if you still remember me. We just met last night." Lu Wanying greeted politely.
"Sorry, he's taking a shower now, otherwise you could call back later."
The female voice that reached Lu Wanying's ears was gentle.
Lu Wanying was stunned for a moment and wanted to explain, but the other party had already hung up the phone.
Could this woman be Mr. Gu’s girlfriend?
The other party shouldn't have misunderstood anything, right?
Lin Xin put down the phone and picked up the dirty basket where he put his clothes. The smell of alcohol suddenly rushed into her nose.
Xiaochen has grown a lot compared to before.
A smile played at the corner of her mouth.
Suddenly the sound of water stopped, the door opened, and Gu Chen came out with a bath towel wrapped around his lower body and his upper body naked, with crystal clear water droplets flowing on his wheat-colored skin.
Seeing this, Lin Xin quickly turned around, her face slightly red, and her voice revealed a hint of discomfort, "Xiaochen, do you want to wash anything besides these?"
Gu Chen's face was filled with indifference. He picked up the clothes and put them on. He said sternly, "You don't need to wash my clothes. Don't come in and out of my room casually in the future."
The strong alienation made Lin Xin smile awkwardly. "Xiaochen, I am your sister-in-law. We will be a family from now on. You don't have to be polite to me."
Gu Chen squinted at her well-behaved and docile appearance, and suddenly a ball of anger nestled in his heart, "It's still unclear whether we are a family. Who called me just now?"
He picked up his phone and asked in confusion when he saw the strange call that had just come in.
"It seems her name is Lu Wanying. She said you met her last night." Lin Xin said gently.
Lu Wanying?
She called suddenly. Could it be that the contract signing went wrong?
Since it was Jun Yao's order, he called without hesitation and the call was picked up by the other party.
He glanced at Lin Xin, who was tidying up his bed sheets and cups, and called out in a pretentious manner, "Wanying, I'm sorry for what happened just now."
Then turned on the hands-free.
This overly intimate address startled Lu Wanying. Could it be that Mr. Gu really wanted to play games with her?
But the contract has been signed, it doesn't mean he has that intention.
"Mr. Gu, I want to apologize for what happened yesterday. I... shouldn't have left without saying a word." Lu Wanying said apologetically.
"It's okay. You're still being polite to me for such a small matter. Have you signed the contract?" Gu Chen's eyes were always on Lin Xin's back.
"I just signed it. I heard from the producer... Mr. Gu wasn't angry with me at all at the time. I really don't know how to apologize to show my sincerity."
"Don't take it to heart. You were in a hurry at the time, I understand."
Seeing Lin Xin about to leave, Gu Chen pointed to the closet and said, "Pack my clothes."
Lin Xin obediently did it.
Lu Wanying suddenly heard a rustling sound in her ears, which further confirmed her previous guess.
"The person who answered the phone just now should be Mr. Gu's girlfriend, right? Did she misunderstand anything?" Lu Wanying asked cautiously.
The word "girlfriend" made Lin Xin's folded clothes drop to the ground, and she picked them up in a panic.
Gu Chen put one hand in his pocket, a hint of ridicule on his lips, and said bluntly to Lin Xin, "I'm still single, Wanying, please don't misunderstand me. As for the person who answered the phone just now...she's my...servant."
Lu Wanying was stunned and a little surprised. She was not sure what Mr. Gu meant.
Hearing this, Lin Xin's eyes suddenly turned red. In his eyes, she was just a servant of their Gu family?
Her eyes fell to the ground like beads falling from a string. She closed the wardrobe door, unable to control her emotions, and was about to leave in a panic.
Gu Chen grabbed her wrist and hung up the phone at the same time, saying coldly, "Are you leaving before you've packed your clothes?"
Lin Xin lowered her head and struggled with all her might, "I'll go get the maid to clean up for you."
Gu Chen immediately noticed the choking in the voice.
His slender fingers suddenly pinched her chin, forcing her to look straight at him. Her red eyes filled with tears revealed grievance, as if she was accusing him.
His heart felt like it was pricked by a needle.
"Why are you crying? If my parents see it, they will think I bullied you." Gu Chen showed a hint of annoyance between his eyebrows.
Only through her did he realize that women's tears are made of water.
Look at Lan You, why haven’t I heard Jun Yao say that she likes to cry?
Lin Xin quickly wiped her tears with her sleeve, her voice tinged with tears, "You didn't bully me. I just thought of something and couldn't control myself."
Gu Chen looked at her suspiciously, with a look of disbelief on his face, "Really? Aren't you crying because I told you that you are a servant of the Gu family?"
A pair of deep eyes seemed to see through her thoughts.
Her whole body suddenly stiffened, and she said dryly, "No."
Gu Chen sneered, his eyes scanning her body with disgust. "Isn't it? If you weren't a servant, why would you wash and sort my clothes? Lin Xin, are you my eldest brother's fiancée, or did the Gu family hire you as a servant?"
These words were too harsh to hear, and Lin Xin's tears flowed like a waterfall. But even so, she still raised her face and said gently, "Sooner or later, I will be your eldest brother's wife. Doing this for the Gu family is my duty. Xiaochen, I just think you are still immature and your words are not measured. Don't let your parents and your eldest brother hear this, or you will be scolded."
The look in Gu Chen's eyes when he looked at her suddenly seemed to be filled with sharp blades. If sinister looks could kill, Lin Xin would have died hundreds of times already.
The hand holding her wrist suddenly tightened, as if it would break her wrist in the next second.
Lin Xin frowned in pain.
Gu Chen pushed her away and Lin Xin fell on the bed.
Gu Chen suddenly pounced on her, supported his hands on both sides of her body, and used his legs to hold her body in place as she tried to get up.
Lin Xin looked at him with eyes that suddenly widened, filled with panic and fear.
Gu Chen looked down at her, his voice filled with icy coldness. "Lin Xin, I'm already 23 years old. What gives you the right to say I haven't grown up yet? Why do you want me to prove whether I've grown up or not?"
