What's wrong?
This dog food is so cloying and disgusting...
After a while
The matriarch of the Du family sent a private voice message.
His voice was deep, tinged with a gentle chuckle: "How about I introduce you to my sister-in-law sometime?"
Gu Jueye blinked slightly, his thin lips pursed: "If there's a chance... how about a vacation abroad?"
A smiley face appeared on the other end.
He then replied, "Of course it's great! The sky is high and the sea is wide, so birds can fly freely. It's just a pity that I'm missing a beautiful woman in my arms."
The voice was clear and elegant, without any desires or wants.
His words, however, carried a nonchalant air.
Gu Jueye gave a soft chuckle and replied with a message.
"Tens of millions of women want to sleep with you."
A chuckle came from the other end: "Not as good as you, Your Excellency. Have you seen that online ranking?"
"Not interested."
Gu Jueye is introverted and too old-fashioned.
He doesn't like any of the things that young people like to do.
When I have free time, I usually just drink tea, read books, or play chess.
Living the life of an elderly person, how could someone like that know anything about things on the internet?
The man sent a surprised emoji.
Then a screenshot was sent to me.
The above is a poll on Weibo.
The list is mostly filled with people from the entertainment industry.
However, Gu Jueye's name was prominently displayed on one of the ranking lists.
"The number one male god I most want to sleep with: Gu Jueye!"
Then, the person sent a funny emoji: "My lord, there are more people who want to sleep with you than I am."
Gu Jueye blinked and gently swiped his phone screen with his fingertip.
He let out a light, nonchalant snort.
She turned her clear eyes slightly and replied slowly, "Let them dream."
Someone: "..."
Sir, are your fans aware of your arrogance?
In a quiet private room of a restaurant
A young couple sat at the dining table.
The man, holding his phone, suddenly chuckled.
The woman across from me held a knife and fork, eating her steak with elegance.
"What made you so happy?"
The man's beautiful, almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly, revealing a playful smile.
"Men in love are so sickeningly sweet."
The woman raised an eyebrow and glanced at the man: "Who's in love?"
She knew almost everyone in his circle of friends.
Only a few men in the compound could be considered truly devoted, but recently, she hadn't heard of any of them being in a relationship.
You'll never guess!
The man smiled, picked up the glass of red wine in front of him, and swirled it slightly.
I slowly took a sip.
The woman frowned slightly and gently put down her knife and fork.
"Then don't make me guess."
The man casually remarked, "Lord Sir just posted a self-portrait in our group chat."
Upon hearing "Lord," the woman's beautiful face flickered slightly.
"What does this have to do with dating?"
I had a bad feeling.
The man laughed and said, "The portrait was painted by the Duke's mysterious girlfriend. The Duke wasn't showing off the portrait at all; he was clearly just flaunting his love."
The woman remained silent, a hint of melancholy creeping onto her beautiful and gentle face.
"I've seen that girl before, she's quite ordinary-looking... I wonder what the sir is thinking." The woman stared at the food in front of her, suddenly finding it tasteless.
"Have you met the Duke's friend?" He has an ordinary appearance.
The woman was a little flustered and replied perfunctorily, "When Grandpa Qin went to the hospital last time, that girl was with Lord Jue. I saw her briefly. She looked quite young."
Jiang Nanyan narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the woman opposite him for a while.
I almost forgot that the woman in front of me is Sir Sir's number one fangirl.
"Yes, she is quite young. I only just realized that the Duke likes young girls."
Ye Qianning's expression stiffened almost imperceptibly.
Especially the line, "The lord likes young girls," struck a chord deep within her.
She always thought he wouldn't easily fall for any woman.
After all, he was a man untouched by worldly affairs.
Unexpectedly, he surprised everyone by choosing a girl who was neither particularly attractive nor much younger than him.
Her hands, resting on her lap, were clenched tightly, her nails digging into her palms until they were bloody.
A surge of resentment welled up within him, filled with bitterness and unwillingness.

For days, a dark cloud has been hanging over the Bai Group.
Bai Kangyan looked anxious, as if he was on the verge of collapse.
Almost every day, the news about the Bai family is bad.
Shareholders withdrew their shares, the company faced financial difficulties, and senior executives resigned.
The board of directors held meetings for three consecutive days, but no one could come up with a good solution.
There were even a few old fogies who came to cause trouble every day.
Bai Kangyan has been in business for half his life and has a clear understanding of things.
If the Bai Group cannot overcome this hurdle, it may not be long before it declares bankruptcy.
A soft knock came from outside the door.
Bai Kangyan responded, and the other party pushed the door open and entered.
"Boss, Mr. Guo from Huaxing called and asked you to meet with him at Huaxing headquarters this afternoon."
Bai Kangyan's fingers, which were rubbing his brow, paused slightly, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes.
He had just met Guo Qize a few days ago, and the response from Guo was very direct.
With Huaxing Petroleum currently enjoying such a favorable market, Guo Qize is extremely busy.
Should I ask him to meet at this time?
3 p.m.
In Huaxing's reception room.
Guo Qize looked at Bai Kangyan with a big smile: "Uncle Bai, I have some good news for you today."
Bai Kangyan's brows and eyes were filled with sorrow, but he managed to force a smile.
"Oh? What good news?"
Guo Qize kept everyone in suspense: "At this moment, what do you consider to be good news?"
Bai Kangyan smiled faintly, his face full of helplessness.
"Don't laugh at me. You know the current situation of the Bai family. If I had to say something good, I would of course hope to invest in your Huaxing Petroleum."
Only by acquiring a stake in Huaxing can the Bai family reverse its public image.
Those shareholders who invested in the Bai family will not waver.
Guo Qize smiled deeply, picked up a document from his desk, and personally handed it to Bai Kangyan.
"Uncle Bai, please take a look at this first."
Bai Kangyan took it suspiciously, flipped through its contents, and was struck dumb.
It took him a long time to come to his senses.
"Why would the UK voluntarily propose a share transfer?"
Although Baike is listed on the European and American markets, most of its businesses are located overseas.
However, he has never had any cooperation or dealings with the UK.
At this point, UK's voluntary relinquishment of a portion of its shares was more of a surprise than a delight for him.
After all, good things don't just fall from the sky and happen to land on you.
