Gu Yanci memorized exactly who Chu Xingyue bought things for, thinking that his memory would come in handy soon.
Both of them are very good-looking, and Gu Yanci is dressed very casually today. Whether it was intentional or not, it is obvious to others that the two are wearing the same color scheme. In addition, the two are talking intimately, which makes people wonder if they are a couple.
Their shopping mall has a rule that sales clerks are not allowed to take photos of customers without permission; otherwise, if they cause trouble, the mall has the right to hold the sales clerks accountable.
So even though the two are good-looking and a perfect match, all they can do is scream in the company's small group chat when Chu Xingyue and the others leave.
The sales clerks were screaming in private as the person in question was browsing watches at the counter.
The sales clerks were very tactful, neither overly cold nor overly friendly. They knew that some customers simply didn't like it when the clerks were chattering away while they were looking at the items.
Chu Xingyue checked the time and realized it was still early. She remembered that when Gu Yanci fell into the ice last time, his watch had cracked. As his girlfriend, she hadn't contacted him for so long. Although she didn't feel guilty, it didn't seem quite right.
"Could you please show us this?" Chu Xingyue said to the sales clerk with a smile.
"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."
The young woman who had just greeted the customer remained dazed until another colleague nudged her, bringing her back to her senses.
"You know, this girl is so pretty, and she's so willing to spend money on her boyfriend. It's just that the guy looks a bit older than her. Why doesn't she find a younger guy? Why does she have to find a boyfriend who's older than her? Pfft, he looks decent enough, but I didn't expect him to be a gigolo."
"If it weren't for that young lady being so generous and willing to spend money, would we be able to get so much commission? Over 100,000 yuan in commission! If we had a few more like that, wouldn't we be able to retire early?"
Chu Xingyue had no idea what others were saying about them, nor did she know that the bank teller thought Gu Yanci was a gigolo.
Gu Yanci would occasionally raise his hand and say, "It's a watch my girlfriend gave me."
Aside from his family and a few close friends, he has received gifts from other people in his life.
It's hard to believe that An'an is a hidden millionaire. She bought a watch worth millions without batting an eye. But then again, how many people in the country can match the wealth of the Chu family?
His girlfriend is so good to him, he must find a way to give her something in return.
Chu Xingyue had no idea what Gu Yanci was thinking, and even if she did, there was nothing she could say. Although she valued money highly, there were some people she was willing to spend money on.
The two left the mall amidst the manager's beaming smiles, and Chu Xingyue suggested taking Gu Yanci to Grandpa Ye's for dinner.
When they arrived, the mall staff had just left.
The two drove straight inside, where Ye Huaizheng's daughter, Ye Qiuli, sighed.
"I never thought that so many people would still care about this old man like me. Not a single member of our family has been left out. An'an is such a heartwarming child."
“We must remember how good the child is to us. Since An’an isn’t home, I need to prepare some medicinal meals for my brother and sister-in-law and send them over.”
Ye Huai walked briskly towards the kitchen, unaware that Chu Xingyue and Gu Yanci were behind him.
"An'an?"
Ye Qiuli, who had just stepped out of the door, looked at Chu Xingyue walking over with surprise and nodded to Gu Yanci beside her.
Gu Yanci didn't care about being neglected at all; he was happier than anything that someone cared about An'an.
"Aunt Qiu, I've brought some people over for dinner. Could you please prepare something simple for us?"
Chu Xingyue smiled and hugged Ye Qiuli's arm.
"Come on, it's hot outside, come inside quickly. I'll have your Grandpa Ye prepare. Didn't he run into you when he went out earlier?"
Ye Qiuli was a little confused. She and her father left one after the other, and the old man probably hadn't even noticed An'an was outside.
"Auntie, let me introduce you to my boyfriend." Chu Xingyue introduced Gu Yanci in a generous manner.
Ye Qiuli was a little surprised, but she quickly recovered and immediately smiled.
"Young Master Gu, what an honor to have you here!"
"Aunt Ye, don't be so polite. I'm your junior, you can just call me Aci." Gu Yanci knew from the previous times that Chu Xingyue had a close relationship with the Ye family. Usually, Ye Qiuli was very polite to them, but her smile never reached her eyes. Today, however, her smiling eyes held a scrutinizing gaze.
"Okay, you guys sit down for a bit. I'll go to the kitchen to give some instructions and bring you some good food later."
Chu Xingyue led Gu Yanci to the main hall where they often held family banquets.
Chu Xingyue introduced herself as her boyfriend, which made Gu Yanci very happy, as it meant that he would soon be able to stand openly beside Chu Xingyue.
Just because your girlfriend hasn't contacted you for a long time doesn't mean you're single. Even if a man doesn't contact his partner for several years, he still needs to be chaste and protect himself for his wife's sake.
If Gu Xingyue were to find out what Gu Yanci was thinking, she would definitely scoff. Men really have no advantage over her. She can do everything that men can do, and she can do things that men can't do. So, men are really indispensable to her.
Ye Qiuli was gone for a short time and returned quickly.
"It's been so long since you came, Auntie has missed you so much. My younger siblings have also been saying that they haven't seen their older sister An'an for so long."
Ye Qiuli's face softened when she mentioned her two children.
"Isn't it a holiday? Why don't I see the two of them?" Chu Xingyue looked towards the door again.
Ye Qiuli laughed out loud at Chu Xingyue's actions.
"They begged Qingzhi to take them to the military region for training, otherwise I would be driven crazy by them at home."
"Oh? These two little ones are quite good. At their age, they're not afraid of hardship or fatigue. Well done!"
Chu Xingyue was very happy that her two younger brothers and sisters did not become arrogant in such a lively environment, but instead held themselves to high standards. She was truly happy for them.
"Your Grandpa Ye is preparing some of his signature dishes for you now, so enjoy your meal later."
Ye Qiuli didn't stay there for long either; the two young people wanted to spend more time alone together.
Gu Yanci doesn't mind having many people around. She knows that An'an values her family and that she must want to spend more time with them after finally getting a break. However, she is still happy to have more time alone with them like this.
Ye Huai prepared several of his signature dishes for Chu Xingyue. Fortunately, Chu Xingyue had a large appetite, otherwise it would have been a waste and she wouldn't have been able to finish them.
After the two finished eating, they said goodbye to Ye Huai and Ye Qiuli. The old man held Chu Xingyue's hand and repeatedly told her to come over when she was resting, and that Grandpa Ye would cook something delicious.
When Gu Yanci left, he offered to deliver the medicinal food that Ye Huai had cooked to the Chu residence on Ye Qiuli's behalf.
Ye Huai praised the kid for being shrewd and good at handling things.
