The residential compound, Gu Yan's home.
This was Jiang Duoduo's second visit to his home; the first time was on the day he moved in.
Upon entering the main door, a relaxing atmosphere permeates every wisp of air in the entryway and living room.
The aroma comes from the burning of fine sandalwood and the antique furniture and decor.
According to Gu Yan, the interior design was done by someone his parents hired.
No wonder he comes from a scholarly family.
However, she doesn't have time to relax right now.
The four people following her and behind her were all big shots, none of whom she could afford to offend, and she had to deal with them carefully.
After all five people entered the entryway, Gu Yan gave them a fake smile and said, "Come in and sit down, remember to change into slippers so you don't get my floor dirty." He paused, then continued, "Duoduo doesn't need to change her shoes. Duoduo can treat this place as her own home and come in and sit down."
The other three glared at Gu Yan with their own expressions.
Jiang Duoduo dared not be treated differently. She stepped on her flat shoes by the heels and took them off, saying, "I change into slippers at home before coming in." She immediately put on slippers.
"That's fine then." Gu Yan warmly led Duo Duo into the living room.
As for the three of them, he let them do whatever they wanted.
Ji Yue followed Duo Duo very naturally, while the other two Qin siblings were completely ignored.
Of course, they disagreed with this.
There was nothing we could do; we couldn't blame Gu Yan for being angry.
This time, he and Ji Yue rushed to the Qin Group because of Qin Jue.
Of course, he had no hostility towards Qin Xue, it was just that just now!
Qin Xue insisted on bringing Qin Jue to her house for dinner.
Aren't the siblings' relationship very strained?
At the time, he was so angry that he wanted to refuse, but considering how much Duoduo cared about Qin Xue, he insisted on agreeing.
This Ji Yue is truly shameless; he's practically glued to me. If it weren't for the fact that he tipped me off about Duo Duo being with Qin Jue, he would never have allowed Ji Yue to step foot inside his house.
With mixed feelings, Jiang Duoduo followed Gu Yan to the sofa, took out her phone, and buried herself in it to ease the awkwardness.
After all five of them sat down, Gu Yan pestered Duo Duo, "Duo Duo, can you help me in the kitchen?"
Jiang Duoduo considered for a second, and was about to agree when Qin Xue hurriedly interrupted, "No! I've been calling you Duoduo and President Qin all this time just to see your cooking skills, what does it mean to have Duoduo help out?"
Feeling that he was being targeted, Gu Yan frowned and said, "Fine."
Jiang Duoduo immediately put away her phone. "It's okay, I can help out."
After watching the two go to the kitchen, the remaining three people looked increasingly grim.
Just as Jiang Duoduo started cooking in the kitchen, Qin Xue, who was initially preparing to cause trouble, had to say goodbye to Duoduo because she had something urgent to attend to.
They immediately slipped away!
After Qin Xue left, Jiang Duoduo fell into utter despair.
Xuexue, are you just going to leave her with these three men and not care about her?
Qin Jue was relatively easy to deal with; once he was fed, he left on his own.
Ji Yue and Gu Yan are going to be a real problem!
Xuexue has left, and Ji Yue will definitely be coming to the kitchen to help out later...
That won't do!
We should finish this meal as soon as possible!
Jiang Duoduo glanced at Gu Yan, who was washing vegetables beside her, and said, "Gu Yan, go to the living room. I can take care of things here."
Gu Yan had finally gotten a chance to be alone with Duo Duo, but he wasn't about to leave her alone. He said with concern, "No, I'm worried about you being here."
"You don't believe I can do it well?"
