"Fine, fine, you didn't." Mr. Luo surrendered and stopped arguing with his wife.
Although Luo Qianqian found her mother's attitude change strange, she was too busy with work to think about it too much.
Every morning, she would have Gu Yunche take her to meet up with the post-production staff of "Butterfly in the Vast Sea" crew, and they would work until dark before finally going home.
After Nie Linlin visited Gu Yunche's house once, she started trying to find ways to bump into him in the neighborhood.
However, he actually managed to run into her by chance.
When Nie Linlin saw Gu Yunche from afar, she quickly ran over.
"Mr. Gu!"
Gu Yunche frowned but remained silent.
"I had an appointment with a friend nearby, and I didn't expect to run into you like this." Nie Linlin wasn't embarrassed at all and asked shamelessly, "I was in a bit of a hurry last time and didn't get your contact information. Would it be convenient for me to get it now?"
"It's inconvenient." Gu Yunche refused without any politeness.
Nie Linlin smiled awkwardly, but still refused to give up.
"My brother's cooperation with the Fu Group is largely thanks to you, Mr. Gu. I was thinking... if I have plane tickets, I could treat you to dinner to thank you."
"Whether we can cooperate or not is uncertain right now, and you don't need to thank me," Gu Yunche said coldly.
Seeing that he still refused to give her his contact information, Nie Linlin changed her approach.
"Actually, I arranged to meet a friend nearby, but my phone is dead, so... could I borrow your phone to call her? I've been waiting here for over an hour."
She can get his phone number just by making a phone call.
"No." Gu Yunche had no patience to argue with her any longer and turned to leave.
Nie Linlin was not about to give up and chased after them.
"Mr. Gu, I..."
Gu Yunche suddenly turned his head, his deep black pupils suddenly becoming like a bottomless abyss. Nie Linlin, who had been chasing after him, froze in place, completely motionless.
He looked around, then slowly raised his hand, the nine-eyed dzi beads on his wrist shimmering with an eerie red light.
Nie Linlin became like a puppet who had lost its soul.
Everything happened in just one minute.
By the time Nie Linlin came to her senses, Gu Yunche, who had been standing in front of her, had already left.
She looked around blankly, unable to recall why she had come to this place.
She was clearly going to the Fu Group, so why did she end up here?
...
At the Fu Group, Fu Shiqin was in a meeting when his left eyelid suddenly started twitching uncontrollably.
He rubbed his eyes, but they still didn't get better.
Even after the meeting ended, my eyelids kept twitching.
Xu Qian delivered some documents to him and noticed that he kept rubbing his eyes.
What's wrong with your eyes?
"I don't know, my left eyelid just keeps twitching for no reason. I guess I should see an ophthalmologist." Fu Shiqin took the document, rubbing his eye with one hand and glancing at the document with one eye.
Xu Qian glanced at his left eye and said, "Some people say that a twitching left eyelid means you're going to encounter trouble or disaster. You're probably in for some bad luck."
"You're the one who's unlucky, your whole family is unlucky." Fu Shiqin was immediately unhappy when he heard the other person say that he was going to be unlucky.
His life has been incredibly wonderful lately. He has an easy job and a great romance. It's like living the dream.
Xu Qian waited for him to sign the document, then took the document and left.
After finishing his work, Fu Shiqin ran into Xia Linlin in the lobby on the first floor of the company when he was leaving get off work.
"Second Young Master, my brother owes his success in the Fu family business to you and Mr. Gu. I heard that you like this pastry shop, so my brother asked me to buy some and bring them to you as a token of our gratitude."
Fu Shiqin glanced at Xia Linlin and cursed Xu Qian under his breath for his jinx.
Sure enough, he was unlucky.
