Having said that, Gu Xia had completely lost his patience with Xu Yan.
"The tuition has been paid, so you can go back to the dormitory first."
Xu Yan was stunned. "What? Aunt Gu, aren't you going to have dinner with me?"
"No, I still have to look for Ye Fen."
Xu Yan pouted, "I'll go with you."
Gu Xia was a little impatient. "Can't you see? I don't want to be with you. Xu Yan, you are eighteen years old. You should learn to be independent and distinguish right from wrong. You don't need to rely on others for everything."
Xu Yan was unhappy. "Aunt Gu, why do you always care about Ye Fen? Can't you just ignore her? She is not yours."
She was extremely dissatisfied and always felt that Ye Fen had stolen her favor.
Gu Xia gave her a cold look and said, "The person I won't care about anymore is you."
Xu Yan was always quick to admit her mistakes. "I know I was wrong this time. I was too vain. Please forgive me."
She admits her mistakes quickly but never changes. Gu Xia no longer buys her tricks.
He was just a friend's child, and it was not her turn to interfere too much.
Seeing that Gu Xia was indifferent, Xu Yan continued, "My parents are getting divorced, and I will be an unwanted child in the future. If you don't want me anymore, Aunt Gu, I really don't know what to do."
Gu Xia glanced at her and said, "Xu Yan, even if your parents are divorced, they are still your parents. To me, you are just a friend's child. This title is not even appropriate because your mother is not my friend. Even if I can reluctantly call you a friend's child, I don't like to meddle in other people's business."
But when he thought that Gu Yunsi might be involved in Xu Yan's affairs, Gu Xia got a headache again.
"Okay, you go back first. I'm going to find Ye Fen. I don't need you to accompany me."
Xu Yan bit her lips so hard that they almost bled. She stared at Gu Xia's back unwillingly until she disappeared from her sight.
Liang Su, who was standing by, thought to herself that it seemed that Gu Xia and Xu Yan had no feelings for each other and that Xu Yan was simply trying to please her unilaterally.
Xu Yan looked at Liang Su's mocking eyes, no longer hiding her expression, and her face became ferocious.
"What are you looking at?"
Liang Su deliberately snuggled closer to Shen Congji and raised the corners of her lips.
"Hubby, look how fierce she is."
Shen Congji put an arm around her waist and said, "Yeah, it's really fierce."
Xu Yan was so angry that she was fuming and kept calling Liang Su shameless.
Liang Su blinked, "What's the point of having a face? It's enough for me to have a husband. Why are you so angry? Is it because you don't have one?"
Xu Yan almost vomited blood, but the man she liked was right next to Liang Su, taking good care of her.
"He's just a man, who cares?"
"If you don't care, then don't keep staring at my man." Liang Su smiled slightly.
Xu Yan snorted heavily and turned away.
On the other side, Gu Xia found Ye Fen at the school gate.
There was a man standing next to her, holding her hand tightly.
Gu Xia had never seen this man before, but judging from his age, he should be Ye Fen's elder.
Gu Xia walked over and called out, "Xiao Fen."
Ye Fen quickly pushed the man's hand away and looked at Gu Xia in panic.
"Aunt Gu."
When the man saw Gu Xia, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
I have never seen such a beautiful woman. She is simply the favorite of the Creator.
"This is..."
Ye Fen whispered, "This is Aunt Gu who sponsors our welfare home."
She moved closer to Gu Xia, trying to block the man's sight.
When the man heard her words, he laughed and reached out to Gu Xia.
"Hello, Comrade Gu. My name is Zhu Mancang, and I'm Ye Fen's adoptive father."
Gu Xia nodded, but did not shake his hand. Instead, she asked, "I saw you two were talking just now. What were you talking about?"
Zhu Mancang withdrew his hand awkwardly, "I'm worried that Ye Fen's accommodation is unsafe, so I asked her to go home."
"I don't want it!" Ye Fen immediately refused, looking very disgusted with Zhu Mancang.
Gu Xia placed his hand on Ye Fen's shoulder and said, "The child wants to live here so that she can study. The college entrance examination is coming up soon. It would be better for her to concentrate on her studies instead of wasting energy moving around."
Zhu Mancang quickly said, "Yes, since Ms. Gu also said so, then I won't force Ye Fen. Ye Fen, remember to go home on weekends to replenish your nutrition and learn to balance work and rest."
Ye Fen responded reluctantly.
Before he left, he glanced at Gu Xia, as if he wanted to engrave her beauty in his heart.
Gu Xia is beautiful, and from her youth to now, she is very familiar with this kind of aggressive look in men.
She had only met Ye Fen's adoptive mother before, a very honest and gentle woman.
If she had met Zhu Mancang at the beginning, she might not have let him adopt Ye Fen.
Not a serious person.
"Xiao Fen, is your adoptive father good to you?" Gu Xia asked.
Ye Fen dodged and evaded, then replied softly, "Okay."
"Are you living well in this family? Xiaofen, if not, Auntie hopes you'll tell me instead of putting up with me. Just because I can't adopt you doesn't mean I can't make arrangements for you."
Ye Fen smiled and looked up at her.
"Aunt Gu, I'm really fine, you don't have to worry. I'm going to take the college entrance exam soon, so it's not suitable for me to get involved in too many things. I just want to concentrate on my studies."
After hearing this, Gu Xia gave up.
"Since you think everything is fine now, then Auntie won't force you. Ye Fen, study hard. When you grow up and have the ability to be independent, everything will be fine."
Ye Fen nodded heavily, pretending to be relaxed: "Aunt Gu, I'll go back first. I'm a little worried about my sister. If you're free, could you go check on her for me?"
Gu Xia nodded, "Of course, I'll go see your sister when I return to Coconut City."
Ye Fen turned and walked towards the dormitory, but before she had gone far, tears began to fall.
She bit her lip hard to prevent herself from making any sound.
Gu Xia, looking at her back, always felt that Ye Fen's walking posture was a little strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange.
"Xiaoyu, remind me to visit the welfare home after we return to Coconut City."
Xiaoyu nodded aside, "Yes, then shall we go back now?"
"No, let's go to the clothing wholesale market and see how it goes."
It was purely coincidental that I took over the clothing market here, and it was not certain whether I could make it successful.
But later she heard that it was doing pretty well, so she became curious and wanted to go and have a look.
"OK."
The two walked towards the school gate.
She waited at the door while Xiaoyu went to drive.
After Xiaoyu drove the car over, the two of them went to the clothing market.
She hasn't been here for a while, and all the work has been handed over to the deputy manager.
But when she got out of the car, she smelled a foul odor.
Xiaoyu handed her a handkerchief and said, "There's a garbage pile over there. It looks like garbage from the farmer's market."
Gu Xia frowned, "How can we let them pile up garbage at the entrance of the clothing market? This will only affect the image."
