Gu Jueye returned to the research institute.
Ji Cong'an was engrossed in playing a game, but glanced at him briefly.
"My lord, Yuan You went out to order food. Would you like me to bring some back for you?"
Gu Jueye nodded in response and headed straight for his office.
As I reached the door, I paused slightly.
He slowly turned around, his deep gaze falling on Ji Cong'an.
How can I make a good impression on my girlfriend?
"Here are some roses! Women love flowers, the more the better!"
Gu Jueye lowered his eyelids slightly, his long eyelashes blinking gently.
A sliver of doubt arose in my mind.
Would she like it if I sent her flowers?
Ji Cong'an suddenly realized something and was startled.
Her peach blossom eyes widened: "Wait... what did you just say?"
Gu Jueye was preoccupied with whether or not to send flowers and had no time to pay attention to the person who was standing there dumbfounded.
Ji Cong'an glared at Gu Jueye with a meaningful look: "I say, Mr. Jueye, you said you were going to support your girlfriend? You... did you?"
If I remember correctly, you don't seem to have a "girlfriend" as a "creature" yet, right?
The man's deep eyes gradually cleared, and he glanced at Ji Cong'an indifferently.
A slight curve to his thin lips: "Ex-girlfriend."
As he finished speaking, his slender hand pressed the electronic door button for the office.
His handsome and upright figure quickly disappeared from Ji Cong'an's sight.
Does an ex-girlfriend count?
Does an ex-girlfriend count?
Your ex-girlfriend is probably someone else's current girlfriend now, so how could she still be considered your girlfriend?
This thought process is truly unique!

Now, let's talk about the Bai family at this moment.
Since Bai Qianmo appeared, everyone in the living room seemed a little awkward.
Even casual conversation seemed to have become absent-minded.
Han Songyan was even more heartbroken, and she kept hoping that Bai Qianmo could go back to her room as soon as possible.
But it's strange how things are today.
Bai Qianmo showed no intention of leaving after sitting down.
Han Songyan's brows gradually furrowed.
Bai Qianmo nestled on the single sofa, not even glancing at Han Songyan.
Holding his phone in both hands, he was engrossed in playing a game.
Bai Xiruo glanced at Bai Qianmo and smiled at Madam Li beside her.
"Aunt Li, please sit here and rest for a while. I'll put the bracelet that Brother Yushu gave me back inside and keep it safe."
As she spoke, Bai Xiruo took off the bracelet and put it into the wooden box.
Her words suggested that she valued the gift very much.
Madam Li saw this and was naturally satisfied.
Bai Qianmo looked away from her phone screen and glanced at the bracelet with a nonchalant expression.
His brow furrowed almost imperceptibly: "This bracelet..."
The words were on the tip of her tongue, but Bai Qianmo hesitated and stopped herself from speaking.
When Bai Qianmo finally spoke, his gaze remained fixed on the bracelet.
Li Yushu, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke softly.
"You like it?"
The sound quality is pleasant, warm, and deep.
There seemed to be a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Bai Qianmo tilted her head and glanced at Li Yushu.
She blinked her clear eyes slightly, then tugged at her lips.
"very beautiful!"
“These are pieces from a jade shop owned by a friend of mine. If you’re interested, I can introduce you to them if the opportunity arises,” Li Yushu said with a smile.
Madam Li paused slightly, looking at her son with a puzzled expression.
When did this kid become so eager?
He stared at Bai Qianmo thoughtfully for a moment, his eyes gradually darkening.
Bai Xiruo's face was slightly gloomy, and a cold light flashed in her clear eyes.
The hands holding the wooden box tightened slightly.
Bai Qianmo looked at Bai Xiruo, a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth.
With a half-smile, he said to Li Yushu, "I'm very poor, I'm afraid I can't afford it."
Han Songyan's delicate face shattered into pieces at an incredibly fast speed.
He was filled with hatred and gritted his teeth.
She couldn't imagine how Madam Li would view Bai Qianmo when the Bai family revealed her true identity.
Upon hearing Bai Qianmo's words, Li Yushu raised an eyebrow and smiled.
The little girl is quite fun.
Aunt Liu returned, her plump, bloated face beaming with smiles.
"Madam, someone has delivered a lot of roses, saying they are for our Miss Xiruo!"
Han Songyan was stunned for a moment and looked at Bai Xiruo.
Bai Xiruo frowned: "They sent me flowers? But very few of my friends know my address."
Aunt Liu said, "I'm not quite sure either. They specifically said it was for Miss Bai."
Han Songyan was silent for a while, then looked at Madam Li with a helpless expression: "Xi Ruo has quite a few suitors, but I once told her that she should focus on her studies during university. Xi Ruo has been very obedient and has never paid attention to those suitors."
Madam Li smiled and said, "It would be strange if Xi Ruo, who is so outstanding, didn't have any suitors."
Madam Li was quite open-minded about the fact that someone was pursuing Bai Xiruo.
Firstly, the Li family's status speaks for itself, which is the source of Mrs. Li's confidence.
Secondly, her son was impeccable in both appearance and ability, far superior to the male students in the B-movie.
Seeing that Madam Li's expression was calm and composed, and that she did not seem to mind, they realized that she was not bothered by the situation.
Han Songyan was relieved and even felt a sense of pride as a mother.
Someone sent flowers to Xi Ruo, which also allowed Madam Li to understand something.
The Bai family's daughter is very outstanding and is a perfect match for the Li family's son.
The group got up and went into the courtyard.
Bai Qianmo originally didn't want to come out and see this commotion.
But she noticed that everyone else had left, but Li Yushu showed no sign of getting up.
