No wonder! No wonder Gu Xingfan is so arrogant, he is no different from the prince!
In addition, Gu Xingfan's grandfather was the head of a certain military region before his retirement. In this case, he must be a wealthy son-in-law.
However, this prince is obviously not very popular now. The reason may be that no one likes his carelessness, and people figuratively call it: impolite!
But Lin Yanbai thought it was more likely that, as Liu Mei had said, his parents were both deceased, his grandfather was getting older, and his health was reportedly declining. It could be said that Gu Xingfan's current situation was just a facade of strength.
Yes, that's right. Gu Xingfan's parents died in the war when he was only 3 years old. Since then, he has been living with his grandfather.
No one would be willing to marry a person like this, let alone be with him and live in fear all the time, because his grandfather is a big capitalist and he has an uncle living overseas, and no one knows what will happen if they are with him!
After Liu Mei left, Lin Yanbai was in a daze for a long time. She couldn't describe her feelings at the moment. She stayed there for a long time before slowly walking into the office.
This indescribable feeling lasted until lunch the next day. Gu Xingfan, who was standing opposite her, looked at her for a long time before he said helplessly, "It seems Comrade Lin seems to have understood something about me. I'm sorry to have caused you any trouble!"
"Oh! What's the big deal? It's normal. Stopping them from gossiping is more painful than killing them!"
Gu Xingfan was amused: "That's true! But - what they said is not entirely false."
Hearing this, Lin Yanbai paused and looked up at him, as if he realized what he wanted to say.
"Dating is fake, but I hope it's real!"
"Ahhhh—Xiao Qi, did you hear that? Did you hear that? Did you hear that?"
"Host, I heard it, there's no need to repeat it!!!"
It's undeniable that Lin Yanbai is attracted by Gu Xingfan's looks. Hmm—okay! He's also quite interesting. Lin Yanbai does have some feelings for him, otherwise she wouldn't go out to eat with him so often.
Moreover, she knew that this event was about to end, so she didn't care about the worries of others. Besides, this guy had no parents. Although it was a bit unkind to think so, Lin Yanbai liked him so much!
Xiao Qi: ...beast!
Lin Yanbai thought of this and had the answer in her heart. She looked up at Gu Xingfan's eyes and said, "It's useless to just think about it. You have to take action! Otherwise, how will others know what you mean?"
Hearing Lin Yanbai's words, Gu Xingfan was stunned for a second. After he realized the meaning of her words, a grown man, no, a handsome grown man actually laughed like a fool.
Just when Lin Yanbai was regretting her decision, the idiot opposite her finally stopped. He looked at her excitedly and said, "Comrade Lin Yanbai, are you willing to have a relationship with me with the purpose of getting married?"
Looking at the pair of sincere big eyes on Gu Xingfan's handsome face, Lin Yanbai suddenly felt a little hot. She raised her palm to fan the heat lingering on her face and muttered softly, "That depends on your performance!"
Her charming demeanor made Gu Xingfan burst out laughing. As expected, he was always happy with her. Ever since he met her, he always felt that there was fun around him. So when their relationship was misunderstood by so many people, his first thought was not to clarify it, but to think - it seemed that this was not bad!
It seemed that after meeting her, his life was no longer stagnant, and for the first time he felt some anticipation for tomorrow.
The next morning, as soon as Lin Yanbai and Xu Jiaqi went downstairs, they saw Gu Xingfan standing downstairs. He was wearing a work jacket and black pants. Just standing there, he attracted the attention of people coming and going.
Xu Jiaqi stretched out his elbow and nudged her, then said in a very colorful tone: "I won't disturb you anymore, I'll go to the cafeteria first!" He blinked and walked straight to the cafeteria.
Gu Xingfan came up to Lin Yanbai and raised the lunch box in his right hand to gesture: "I brought you breakfast, come to my office to eat?"
After obtaining Lin Yanbai's consent, the two went to the trade union, which was larger than the Propaganda Department. Gu Xingfan had a small office here that belonged to him. Although it was not big, it did provide some private space.
Gu Xingfan carefully opened the lunch box. "I brought you some buns and porridge made by Aunt Chen. Would you like to try them and see how she cooks?"
Looking at the plump, white bun in the lunch box, Lin Yanbai picked it up without hesitation and bit into it, without any fancy movements. The next second, her mouth burst with the harmonious aroma of chives, eggs, and shrimp. The first bite was so fresh, fragrant, and refreshing that Lin Yanbai could hardly stop eating.
There's also white porridge, which is simple but the best way to test your cooking skills. The white porridge that Gu Xingfan brought was obviously cooked for a long time. The white rice was crystal clear, sticky and smooth, and paired with pickled radish, this is how people should live! Lin Yanbai sighed.
"It's delicious, even better than the cooking of chefs in state-owned restaurants!" Lin Yanbai gave a thumbs up.
Gu Xingfan chuckled: "I think if Aunt Shen heard your praise, she would be very happy!"
"Excuse me, Aunt Shen is——?"
"Auntie Shen used to take care of my mom, and after my mom passed away, she started taking care of me! In my heart, she is just like my family!"
After saying that, he looked at Yan Bai and said quietly, "You don't know, when Aunt Chen found out I was dating, she wanted to fly over to see you right away. She even made breakfast for you this morning!"
"Hehe!" Lin Yanbai blinked her clear and beautiful eyes and said in a cocky tone, "There's nothing I can do about it. This girl has a unique personality charm! You have to thank Aunt Chen for me!"
Hearing this, Gu Xingfan raised his eyebrows: "Don't worry, I will definitely convey your opinion!"
The two of them spent their breakfast chatting. By the time they finished eating, it was already late, so Lin Yanbai quickly packed up and prepared to meet with the Propaganda Department.
"By the way, here is the key to my office. Usually no one comes in here, so come over anytime if you need anything!"
Lin Yanbai took it without hesitation. After all, this was also an alternative private space in a sense, and she might need it someday!
After walking out of the office, Lin Yanbai saw the female comrade who helped her pass the message last time. Her name seemed to be Zhong Xinya, right?
Yan Bai walked up to her and said, "Comrade Zhong, thank you for your help last time. I've been very busy recently and haven't come to thank you in person. Please don't mind!" As she said that, she took out a handful of White Rabbit snacks from her pocket and put them on the table.
"I'll treat you to some candy as a thank you for your help last time!" After saying that, he turned around and left quickly without waiting for Zhong Xinya's answer.
