Chapter 43 Turning Around



Gu Yan was forced by his father to attend a banquet tonight, but he never expected to receive a call from his brother saying that Ji Yue had brought Duo Duo along.

How could he tolerate this? Without saying a word, he left the banquet and came over here.

Gu Yan walked to the card playing area and watched Ji Yue leave the private room, still feeling somewhat displeased.

It wasn't that he didn't want to bring Duoduo back, but Duoduo had been avoiding him. Recently, Duoduo's attitude towards him had finally softened a bit, and he hadn't run away since. He couldn't allow Duoduo to become resistant to him again.

Of course, Duoduo's actions made him feel better. Not only did she treat him this way, but Ji Yue was also being turned away by her.

Given Duoduo's current indifferent attitude, it's not a problem to let Ji Yue do this arduous task; Duoduo won't suffer any losses... However, I still feel a little uneasy.

The scene of Gu Yan playing cards was completely different from that of Ji Yue.

One was aloof and cold, silently discarding cards like an iceberg, while the other grinned and chatted wickedly with the other three.

As the birthday boy, Xu Haochen had been losing to Ji Yue one after another, and now he was losing to Gu Yan. He was getting restless, but as the protagonist of this birthday party, he couldn't just end the game like that and spoil the fun.

Seeing that they were about to lose again, he glanced at Gu Yan and asked, "Yan, what were you and Jiang Duoduo talking about just now?"

"nothing."

"Really? I think Jiang Duoduo doesn't seem to dislike Yan Ge as much as she did in the first half of the semester." Xu Haochen added slyly, "By the way, that's true! Jiang Duoduo and Yue Ge seem to be getting along quite well lately too."

Xu Haochen made up a story, and no one refuted it, since no one could understand the relationship between the three of them anyway.

As expected, as soon as Xu Haochen finished speaking, Gu Yan stood up, threw down his cards, and said with a stern face, "I'm not playing anymore."

...

Toilet.

Jiang Duoduo had already drunk a lot of water and was in a real hurry. After urinating, she washed her hands and stood in front of the sink to calm down for a while.

She was thinking of a strategy for how to deal with Ji Yue and Gu Yan later.

Huh?

Actually, there's another way. Instead of thinking so much, you might as well just run home!

As soon as Jiang Duoduo came out of the restroom, she met Ji Yue's gaze as he leaned against the gray-black tiled wall.

Ji Yue's face was gloomy, his thin lips pressed into a line, and his face was filled with a dark cloud, clearly showing that he was angry. She was so frightened that she trembled, but then she forced herself to remain calm and revealed her shallow dimples. "You're here to use the restroom too?"

Ji Yue remained silent and did not answer her question.

Jiang Duoduo tried her best to deepen her dimples and spoke in a relaxed tone, "I'm going back to the private room now."

She turned and quickened her pace to slip away.

Ji Yue frowned and took a large step towards her. "You've gone the wrong way." Before he could even finish speaking—

Jiang Duoduo suddenly turned around and bumped into his arms.

Ji Yue's muscular chest made Jiang Duoduo, whose pupils widened in panic, unable to react at all.

Just then, Gu Yan arrived and witnessed this scene.

Jiang Duoduo nestled in Ji Yue's arms, and the sight of the two embracing was a shock to his senses.

"Jiang, Duo, Duo!" Gu Yan said slowly and deliberately, taking long strides as he walked towards them.
