Chapter 110: Deja Vu

"This is very expensive, right?" Zhou Nuan asked again.

"It's okay, not very expensive." Mainly because it took a lot of effort to transport it back.

Seeing that her little face was still frowning, Gu Xiyue reached out and touched her brows, then quickly retracted his hand, curling his palm slightly as he suppressed the turmoil in his heart.

"You deserve better."

He lowered his voice, obviously not wanting others to hear it. Zhou Nuan's originally wrinkled face suddenly relaxed. She raised her head and smiled at him as bright as a summer flower.

"Thank you. I like it very much."

The couple's whispering did not attract everyone's attention, only Wang Youzhi, who was feeling indignant, noticed it. He grimaced when he heard it, and almost lost his teeth due to the sourness.

Look, look, how can this be the former Chief Gu, the current Boss Gu, who was silent, rough, and tough, and would never say a good word even if he was beaten to death? This is clearly a little lover Gu who is immersed in a pink bubble.

Tian Yanjing is right, this guy is a wife-loving maniac!

Noticing his movements, He Tao came over, his eyes fixed on the grilled skewers in his hand, "Brother Zhi, don't you want to eat this skewers?"

As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Wang Youzhi to react, he snatched it away, muttering, "You don't want to eat it? Then give it to me. Fanxing is hungry, right?"

He handed the skewer of meat he had grabbed to the young girl who was sitting next to him with her chin in her hand. The girl was very thin, with a melancholy look between her brows. She had a ribbon tied into a bow on her left wrist, which was particularly harmonious with He Tao, who had a bandage on his right hand.

The girl was Luo Fanxing.

Hearing the question, Luo Fanxing smiled faintly, took it, said thank you in a soft voice, and then began to take small bites.

Wang Youzhi looked at He Tao's worthless smile and felt even more annoyed. He suddenly felt that he could not stay here any longer.

He really regretted it. If he had known earlier, he would have called his wife along as well. Who would be alone?

It was clearly a cold and bleak autumn, but why did he feel like he was in spring when everything was growing and animals were courting mates?

But...

Wang Youzhi leaned close to He Tao's ear and said, "What's wrong with your friend's hand? His aura is so weak, is he prone to that?"

He could see that this silly boy He Tao had a crush on her, but this girl obviously had some problems, and he was afraid that in the end all his feelings would be in vain and he would be the one hurt.

He Tao glanced at Luo Fanxing who was eating in small bites, "Ah? What aura? Isn't Fanxing fine? She is just a normal person like us. Brother Zhi, you have so many weird ideas in your head."

Luo Fanxing paused, then continued to take small bites, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

Wang Youzhi wanted to slap the careless He Tao: We were just talking in private, why was he speaking so loudly? Was he afraid that others couldn't hear him?

He stole a glance at the pretty girl again, and when he saw that there was nothing unusual on her face, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and walked to the other side. If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would not be able to bear to beat up this stupid boy.

He Tao looked at Wang Youzhi who suddenly stood up and walked away in confusion, "Brother Zhi, aren't you going to eat anymore?"

"No! I'm going to drink." Wang Youzhi responded by cursing.

"Don't pay attention to him, Brother Zhi has always been..." He Tao looked at Luo Fanxing and made a gesture, indicating that she should not mind.

Luo Fanxing pursed her lips and smiled faintly.

As she was speaking, Zhou Nuan walked over here, smiled at He Tao who stood up and greeted her, and then looked at Luo Fanxing who looked a little reserved.

"Stars?"

"Sister Nuannuan." Luo Fanxing called out hoarsely.

"Are you here alone? Where's your brother?"

“...” Luo Fanxing lowered her head.

"Brother Luo is busy, so I brought her here." He Tao replied with gritted teeth.

"Oh." Zhou Nuan was a little disappointed, but her expression remained unchanged. "I'm sorry, I can't help you. He Tao, please take good care of Fanxing for me."

He Tao continued to grin.

Zhou Nuan was pleased by his silly look. She glanced at Luo Fanxing, whose gaze had turned to He Tao and the gloom between his brows had dissipated a little, and smiled and shook her head.

Without noticing that behind him, Gu Xiyue's eyes dimmed.

Everyone worked together, grilled the meat, laid out the wine and drinks, and everyone sat at the table.

Not many people came. Apart from Zhou Nuan's people from the store, there were the main staff from the Xizhou factory and Gu Xihou's friends, who just sat at two tables.

They were all acquaintances, so there was no need to be too formal, and the atmosphere was harmonious and warm.

Just when everyone was enjoying their meal, there was a knock on the door. The abrupt knock made the happy atmosphere pause and become quiet.

Wang Youzhi raised his eyebrows, "Is there anyone else who is late?"

Zhou Nuan glanced at Gu Xiyue, who frowned slightly.

He invited no one else except the people in the house.

Zhou Nuan thought of a possibility, "Could it be that your brother Fanxing is here?"

In addition to Ji Huacheng, she only invited Luo Fanxing and his sister. Ji Huacheng has made it clear that he cannot come, so it can only be Luo Chenxing.

She was about to get up, but was pushed back by a big hand.

Gu Xiyue's eyebrows were gloomy, and his emotions could not be seen. "You sit down, I'll go and take a look."

Without giving Zhou Nuan any time to explain, he stood up and opened the door.

Ji Huayan appeared in front of the door with a flattering smile on her face, holding a basket full of fruits in her hand.

She had obviously dressed up carefully. Her face was incredibly pale, her eyebrows were thick and black, her mouth was painted big and bright red, and her eyes were deliberately narrowed, which was very strange.

She was only wearing a tight tank top and shorts, with her legs exposed. Maybe it was a little cold, so she hunched over a little.

Seeing that it was Gu Xiyue, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Brother Xiyue, I'm here to congratulate you on your new home."

Gu Xiyue's face was cold, and the tall figure blocking the door did not move at all, with no intention of letting her in.

"I'm sorry, we didn't invite anyone irrelevant to the family dinner. Miss Ji, please go back."

He stretched out his big hand and was about to close the door. Ji Huayan was so anxious that she didn't even bother to smile, "Hey, I'm here on behalf of my parents. Brother Xiyue, you won't even give my parents face, right?"

Gu Xiyue paused.

Tian Yanjing scratched his ears when he heard this. Although he also didn't like the eldest daughter of the Ji family who dressed more and more strangely, he couldn't underestimate Jin Jishan behind her. He was afraid that his old friend and boss would get angry and say something unpleasant to offend Jin Jishan.

Just as he was worried, Zhou Nuan stood up and walked over, "Xiyue, since it is Boss Ji's good intention, let Miss Ji in."

She opened the door, stretched out her hand and gestured for you to come in, still with a smile on her face, "Ms. Ji, please."

Ji Huayan was proud and stepped inside, "Wow, so many people have come to our house."

She looked around and then stopped at Luo Fanxing's face and was slightly startled.

Why does this woman feel so familiar?
