Gu Nian told her parents and then went to the old house with Gu Hui, who was quite a gossip.
As a result, the two sisters had only taken a few steps out of the house when they saw Zhang Yunyun leading a young man in fine clothes towards them.
The young man was tall and slender, with a straight back, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. His hair was half up and half down, giving him a sunny and energetic look.
When he saw Gu Nian, his eyes lit up and he smiled.
Normally, if a handsome guy with ancient style smiled at her like that, Gu Nian would be in a good mood. However, this was not normal. This was after she found out that the original owner of Gu Nian was drooling over her cousin Zhang Yunyun!
This must be Zhang Yunyun's cousin, Young Master Xu!
"Da Ya, my cousin is looking for you!" Zhang Yunyun said impatiently when she saw Gu Nian.
"Which girl are you calling?" Gu Nian asked.
Gu Hui: "..."
If she dares to call me "Da Ya," I'll throw her into the back mountain.
"Niannian, why are you being so distant with me?" Young Master Xu stepped forward, looking hurt.
Gu Nian's heart skipped a beat. They seemed so familiar. Could it be that the original owner had spent time with this person in private?
"Do I think we're that close?" Gu Nian frowned and glanced at him.
Young Master Xu was taken aback. He hadn't expected Gu Nian to give him such a cold shoulder. Was she angry?
So he explained, "I invited you to my birthday party before, but Yunyun said you weren't feeling well. Then I got busy before the New Year, so I didn't have time to come see you. Are you angry? Don't be angry, okay? I was wrong."
Zhang Yunyun stomped her foot angrily.
Now it was Gu Nian's turn to be dumbfounded.
Judging from his tone, is this man very familiar with the original owner of this body?
Oh no, it's been a long time since I've panicked because I have no memory.
What should we do now?
What if the original owner of this body had something going on with him, and she knew nothing about it? Wouldn't that expose her?
"Didn't Zhang Yunyun say you look down on me?" Gu Nian suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembering Zhang Yunyun's words.
“Gu Nian, you…” Zhang Yunyun didn’t expect that even though her cousin was being so gentle to Gu Nian, Gu Nian was still acting coy, and what’s worse, she dragged her into it.
"Yunyun?" Young Master Xu frowned and turned to look at Zhang Yunyun.
“Cousin, it’s not my fault. My aunt wouldn’t let me take her. She told me to tell her you don’t like her,” Zhang Yunyun explained, feeling wronged. “Besides, she’s not good enough for you! Cousin, don’t be fooled by her looks. She doesn’t only like you; she has many other people she likes!”
"Shut up! Stop talking nonsense!" Young Master Xu frowned even more deeply.
"Cousin, are you being mean to me?" Zhang Yunyun looked at Xu Gongzi in disbelief, then her lips trembled, tears welling up in her eyes. She glared at Gu Nian and said, "Gu Nian, I'll remember you!"
After saying that, she covered her face and ran away.
Gu Nian: "...It's not like I yelled at you, it's none of my business!"
Young Master Xu looked at Gu Nian: "Niannian, what's wrong with you? How can you be so rude? Are you still angry because of my birthday? I really didn't know what my mother and Yunyun were doing behind my back. Niannian, please don't be angry, okay?"
Gu Nian shook her head: "I'm not angry, why would I be angry? I don't even like you!"
Young Master Xu stared at Gu Nian in surprise for a long while. Just as Gu Nian was about to leave impatiently, he spoke up: "Nian Nian, have you forgotten the vows we made last summer when we were boating on Qinghu Lake in town? Have you forgotten that you said you would marry no one but me in this life? Have you forgotten that you said you would wait for me no matter how many obstacles we encountered? Have you forgotten that you asked me to study hard and, after passing the imperial examinations, tell both our parents about our relationship? Have you forgotten all of that?"
