"..." Upon hearing Ji Zhinan's words, Wang Haoran instinctively denied it: "Impossible, you're lying to me!"
He had never heard of Ji Zhinan having a boyfriend. And even if she did, how could he possibly be as outstanding and charismatic as she described? There is no such perfect person in the world.
"..." Ji Zhinan was truly speechless. She pointed directly to the north and south buildings next to her and asked, "Do you see that building?"
"My fiancé paid for it."
"..."
Wang Haoran had heard a little about Gu Yibei's donation of a building at great expense, but because he knew that Gu Yibei was the investor in that building, he was even less likely to believe it.
"Gu Yibei? Are you dreaming?" It wasn't that Wang Haoran was deliberately mocking him. In his world, how could an ordinary girl like Ji Zhinan, who wasn't even a daughter of the Ji family, possibly have a relationship with Gu Yibei, let alone be engaged?
"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Ji Zhinan smiled enigmatically. "Just like the North and South Islands where we got engaged, all I need to know is that he gave them to me. Whether outsiders believe it or not, what does it have to do with me?"
Seeing Ji Zhinan's calm and confident demeanor, Wang Haoran panicked.
North and South Buildings, North and South Islands...
Ji Zhinan, Gu Yibei...
How could that be?
"Impossible!" He shook his head, resolutely refusing to believe it. "Gu Yibei is indeed engaged, but everyone knows that he must be marrying a noblewoman!"
Even if Gu Yibei liked her face, how could the Gu family, a noble family with ties to the royal family of Y country, allow a commoner's wife to appear in the future?
"In my heart, my wife is the most precious princess."
The man's voice came from behind Wang Haoran. It was neither cold nor indifferent, but it had enough penetrating power to make Wang Haoran's back stiffen.
He stiffly turned his head and saw a man slowly walking towards him amidst the female students' low screams.
Gu Yibei's short black hair was simply styled, making his face exceptionally handsome. His features were deep-set, and his pupils were incredibly dark beneath his deep-set eyes. His high, straight nose was exquisitely flawless, and his thin lips, chin, and Adam's apple formed a beautiful curve.
Below his Adam's apple was a formal tie, and his light gray suit was impeccably tailored. He strode towards the pavilion, his long legs carrying him gracefully, his posture upright.
Anyone who sees him will find their gaze drawn to him, and then follow his every step.
Wang Haoran was completely dumbfounded.
Gu Yibei didn't even glance at his rival. He walked over in a few steps, took her hand as usual, and felt the slight chill in her palm. He frowned and said, "You're not dressed warmly enough again."
"No, I just washed my hands with ice water." Ji Zhinan smiled. "Didn't you say it would take ten minutes to get here?"
"Luckily I arrived early, otherwise my wife would have been snatched away." As he spoke, his gaze fell on Wang Haoran, and he skillfully wrapped her hand in his large palm, warming her cold little hand.
Ji Zhinan frowned, not liking what he said: "Is my taste really that bad?"
Upon hearing this, the man chuckled, his eyes crinkling with delight, which caused the young girls watching to scream.
“Yes, my wife has the best taste.” He began, his tone brimming with undisguised pride, then added, “Especially when it comes to choosing men.”
Ji Zhinan glared at him.
The two were oblivious to everyone else, showing off their affection without caring that the onlookers were being bombarded with their lovey-dovey displays, especially Wang Haoran, who was standing the closest and was the one who was most overwhelmed by the sweetness.
