Chapter 10: The Female Supporting Character in a Wealthy Family Marriage



Gu Jin walked over to them and stood side by side. "It doesn't mean that much. It's the same as what He Nuan said."

The smile on An He Nuan's face became even wider, and she said, how could Gu Wan, who hasn't even finished college yet, know more than her?

Gu Wan glanced at Gu Jin, ignored him, and turned to another picture.

Gu Jin glanced at Gu Wan, but didn't go over. However, this was the first time that he was absent-minded when An He Nuan spoke to him.

Gu Wan watched quietly for a while, and was then called out by Chen Yu.

Gu Jin's art exhibition was held in the commercial center.

Chen Yu and Gu Wan were taking a walk outside.

"What's wrong with you lately?"

Gu Wan pursed her lips and said, "Nothing, just busy with other things."

Chen Yu reached out and patted her head, "When are you going to school? I know someone there who can help you."

Gu Wan knew that Chen Yu’s senior worked abroad and was a big shot on Wall Street. “Okay, thank you.” She would not refuse.

Gu Wan left in October. She went there for a very special school, studying art, and she only stayed there for three short years.

After Gu Wan left, the Gu family returned to its former state, without any worldly atmosphere.

Gu Jin continued with his competition and art exhibition.

Gu Wan lived a very comfortable life abroad. Although Gu Zhou was still brooding over his own little schemes, he did not lose a penny. Gu Zhou was too smart. He knew clearly that the person he liked was Chen Yu.

Chen Yu's friend, Chen You, was entrusted by someone and was a little surprised when he learned that she was Chen Yu's fiancée.

"coffee."

Gu Wan thanked him, "I can actually handle it by myself, but Chen Yu is obviously still worried."

Chen You looked at Gu Wan with a smile, with a lot of curiosity in his eyes. The person in front of him was very smart. Although he rarely returned to China, he also knew that the person Chen Yu liked was An He Nuan. Was he too concerned about this so-called fiancée now?

"Do you like Shenyu?"

Gu Wan raised her hand and fiddled with her hair. It was no exaggeration to say that she looked very charming with the makeup she put on today.

"Chen Yu and I are just friends. Grandpa arranged our marriage."

Chen You looked at the coffee on the table, without expressing whether he believed it or not. "Since Chen Yu asked me to take care of you, then come to me if you have any problems."

As he said this, he took out the pen he carried with him and wrote down his contact information, WeChat, and the non-private number on the business card.

Gu Wan accepted it without hesitation, and in the next six months, she would look for him whenever she encountered any problems.

Chen You had just cleaned up the water pipes in the villa's kitchen.

Gu Wan handed him a towel; his expensive shirt was already wet.

Chen You wiped his hair with a towel. He was a bit of a germaphobe and couldn't stand the smell on his body. "Can I take a shower at your house?"

Gu Wan nodded, "Okay."

Chen You looked at Gu Wan's seemingly innocent eyes and gritted his teeth. She did it on purpose because of the question he asked her when they first met. This little girl was very cunning and took it for granted. He sighed and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Gu Wan went to the kitchen and cooked two bowls of noodles, fried a simple poached egg, blanched two heads of lettuce, and sprinkled them with chopped green onions.

Chen You simply rinsed himself and stood in the bathroom looking at the clothes he had thrown away. "Gu Wan, help me find some clothes."

Gu Wan put the noodles on the table and ran to the second floor to find a set of Gu Jin's clothes and brought them down.

"I put it on the door handle for you."

Chen You took it and put it on and it was just right. He wiped his hair and came out.

"Why do you have men's clothes here?"

Gu Wan took the chopsticks and said, "Gu Jin was here before and stayed here."

Gu Jin came here to do something and stayed here. This villa was originally bought by Gu Zhou when he was studying abroad.

Chen You moved his nose and smelled the fragrance. The noodles looked really delicious, so he sat down and started eating without caring about his image.

"Your cooking is quite delicious."

Gu Wan chewed her food slowly and carefully. "I grew up in an orphanage, so cooking is a basic skill for me."

When Chen You heard this, he looked up at her. After spending half a year together, she was completely different from when he first met her. She was petite, and her cheeks were puffy and soft when she ate.

He had heard a little about Gu Zhou's half-sister back then.

Chen You was about to say something when he heard his cell phone ringing.

Gu Wan picked up the phone and answered it. It was a video call from her grandfather.

"Hello, Grandpa. Have you had dinner yet?"

Old Master Shen smiled and said, "I've eaten, I've eaten. That brat Chen Yu came to eat with me today."

Gu Wan smiled with her eyes curved, and took a photo of the bowl in front of her with her phone, "I cooked noodles."

Mr. Shen looked at Gu Wan and frowned, "I think you've lost weight."

Chen Yu listened quietly beside him, "You haven't lost weight, have you?"

Mr. Shen glared at him and asked, "Take a good look at Gu Wan. Has she lost weight?"

The phone was stuffed into Shen Yu's hand.

Gu Wan greeted him with a smile, "By the way, the water pipe broke today, and Brother Chen You came to help clean it up." After saying that, she turned the phone to Chen You.

Chen Yu looked at Chen You's wet hair and casual home clothes, "I'm really sorry to bother you."

Chen You also caught the fleeting look in Chen Yu's eyes and said playfully, "It's not a bother. Gu Wan even made me noodles. I haven't had such delicious Chinese food in a long time."

Chen Yu and he have been friends for many years, so how could he not understand what he meant? "I'll call you later. There's a contract issue."

Gu Wan talked to Mr. Shen for a while before hanging up.

After the two of them finished their meal, Gu Wan put away the dishes and washed them in the kitchen.

Chen You leaned against the kitchen door and said, "Gu Wan, why don't you stay with your brother?"

Gu Wan didn't even look up at him, "I am Chen Yu's fiancée, and you are his brother."

Chen You put on his glasses and said, "It's just a casual affair. I like you very much."

Gu Wan wiped her hands and walked past him. "You can wear the clothes you're wearing. Take the clothes you're changing into as well."

Chen You shrugged.

Gu Wan was not idle abroad. Her domestic account was still operating. And because the TV series that was being broadcast was a Republican-era drama with a large number of cheongsams, her account also became a hot search because of this popularity. Her popularity was getting higher and higher, and some magazines sent her private messages.

Although An He Nuan has not felt any financial pressure in the past six months, she is not willing to accept this. She also wants to make a career, but the recent collaborative products have received mediocre responses. Although Gu Zhou has not said anything, she is also very anxious. It would be great if she could sign that person, but she has not received any information.

In March, Gu Wan prepared to return to China. She did not go back during the Spring Festival. This time it was Mr. Shen’s birthday, so she had to be there. She even made a set of clothes for the old man.

Gu Jin drove over to pick someone up.

The relationship between Gu Wan and him had eased a little, and the two of them could talk to each other properly.

Gu Jin stepped forward and took her luggage. "How have you been lately?"

Gu Wan nodded. "Very good. How about you guys?"

Gu Jin drives a new car. He likes to buy all kinds of cars.

"Not bad, big brother is still so busy, Aunt Liu has already made your favorite food at home."

Gu Wan took a sip of water and said, "I'm so hungry now."

Gu Zhou glanced at the time in the office, stood up, put on his coat and prepared to leave. Gu Wan was coming back today.

An He Nuan knocked on the door and came in with a contract. "Leaving now?"

Gu Zhou nodded, "Gu Wan came back from abroad today."

An He Nuan paused for a moment while holding the document. "Okay, let's look at it tomorrow."

Gu Zhou asked her to put it on the desk and said, "I'm leaving first. You should also leave work early."

An He Nuan looked at Gu Zhou's back. When did he start caring so much about Gu Wan? He had never cared about her before.

"Gu Wan, Gu Wan."

It seemed that since her appearance, everything that belonged to her was gone. She knew that Gu Jin went abroad on business trips, but he would always go to see her.

Gu Wan got home and changed into comfortable pajamas. She didn't wear any makeup, so she just washed her face. She came downstairs in slippers and smelled the fragrance of food.

Gu Zhou happened to be changing his shoes at the door.

Gu Wan called out "Brother" in a daze.

Gu Zhou saw that she hadn't changed much, and said, "Okay."

Aunt Liu made all of Gu Wan's favorites. "The young lady didn't come home for the New Year, and she didn't get to eat the dumplings I made, so I made another portion today."

Gu Wan had a sweet smile on her face, "Thank you, Aunt Liu."

Gu Zhou washed his hands and came over to sit down.

"Are you all right at school?"

Gu Wan nodded as she ate, "It's pretty good, and Brother Chen You helped me a lot."

Gu Zhou remembered that Chen Yu had mentioned this to him last time, "That's good, but remember to keep your distance from Chen You."

Gu Wan smiled and nodded when she heard this, "I know."

Gu Zhou sighed in his heart. Whether he admitted it or not, he could no longer stand by and watch Gu Wan as coldly as before.

It was Mr. Shen’s birthday, and Mother Shen celebrated it in a big way. After all, when people of their status, birthdays were sometimes not birthdays, but social events.

Gu Wan delivered the clothes she made the night before.

"Grandpa, you can wear this dress tomorrow. I made it."

Mr. Shen put it on and looked at himself in front of the mirror for a long time before taking it off.

"I'm telling you, I can't bear to wear this."

Gu Wan handed the apple that Mr. Shen had just peeled to him and said, "It's okay. I'll make it for you later."

Chen Yu already knew that Gu Wan was coming today. He didn't want to come at first, but thinking of Chen You's words, he drove over anyway.

Gu Wan saw him coming and said, "Mr. Shen, long time no see."

Chen Yu looked at her and saw a change, "It's been a long time indeed."

After having dinner together, the two of them took a walk in the yard.

"Just ask whatever you want to ask. You were looking at me the whole time while eating just now." Gu Wan wrapped her clothes tightly around herself. It was still a little cold.

Chen Yu turned to look at her, "Chen You told me that he likes you." After saying this, he felt like he was holding back a breath.
