"Aye, this is your right."
There was an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but the other person was wrapped too tightly, so Lin Xunye didn't dare to go up and pull off the person's mask. But looking at the barber's evasive gaze, Lin Xunye was 100% sure that this person knew him, and also knew the people around him.
After paying the money, Lin Xunye walked out of the barber shop.
WeChat was full of Xu Qian's questions, and some chat pictures that were loading slowly kept popping up. Lin Xunye thought about it carefully and replied to him.
【Lin Xunye】: Happy breakup.
Just as I put my phone away, it rang again.
Lin Xunye thought it was Xu Qian crying, so he ignored it. Not long after, a phone call came in.
Lin Xunye took out his cell phone and took a look. The caller was Gu Pei.
As soon as the call was connected, the other party immediately said: "Where are you now? I need you to come to the company for something. The driver will pick you up."
Lin Xunye: "I'm not your employee, why should I go to your company?"
Gu Pei was silent for two seconds, then reworded: "It involves cooperation with Lin's. I want to ask for your opinion."
Lin Xunye: "I'll be there soon."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xunye suddenly remembered something.
He sent a message to Gu Pei.
【Lin Xunye】: Ask another driver to pick me up.
—
Fifteen minutes later, Lin Xunye breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his assistant coming to pick him up, and got into the car with peace of mind.
I have to say that although the assistant's driving skills are not as good as Gu Pei's, they are still okay. At least he doesn't feel like vomiting.
As the car drove into the underground parking lot, Lin Xunye saw a familiar person appear outside the car.
Lin Xunye asked casually: "Who is that person outside?"
The assistant took a look and said respectfully, "He's Mr. Yu from the Yu Group. You may not know him well since you just returned to China. He and Mr. Gu are good friends. If you have a wedding in the future, he will probably sit at the head table."
At the end of the conversation, the assistant seemed to open up, "Boss, when are you and Mr. Gu planning to have your wedding?"
The question came unexpectedly, and Lin Xunye was confused by it. He had never thought about these things, and he didn't know how to hold a wedding.
Not to mention that the two of them were already in a cooperative relationship. If they held a wedding, it would simply tell everyone that the Lin family and the Gu family were getting married. At that time, there would definitely be many partners who would seek cooperation with the Lin family for Gu Pei's sake.
Lin Xunye doesn't want to see this situation.
He wished the Lin family would go bankrupt as soon as possible.
However, such a century-old family should not collapse in a short period of time.
Lin Xunye thought about it and couldn't help but sigh.
I wish his surname wasn’t Lin, I wish he was just an ordinary person.
A nameless anger was ignited, and Lin Xunye's face darkened.
The assistant, forgotten in the corner, looked at the silver-haired Lin Xunye in the rearview mirror and suddenly had an idea. Just as she was about to secretly take a photo and send it to Gu Pei, Lin Xunye suddenly said, "We won't have a wedding, and don't call me the boss lady. My name is Lin Xunye."
After he finished speaking, he pushed the door and got out of the car.
“Ding Dong——”
Gu Pei enlarged the photo and saw Lin Xunye pushing the door with a sour face.
The silver hair softened his sharpness and enhanced his static beauty. Even though the picture was a little distorted, Gu Pei could still see his slightly restrained peach blossom eyes.
It seems that his significant other is in a bad mood.
The facts were indeed as Gu Pei thought.
Lin Xunye came out of the elevator and went straight to Gu Pei's office. He pushed the door open and walked directly to his desk. He supported himself on the table with both hands, and his fingertips turned white from the exertion.
Gu Pei raised his head and the tip of his nose touched a strand of Lin Xunye's fallen silver hair.
Yu Ji's skills have regressed.
Gu Pei's eyelashes trembled as he carefully looked at the different Lin Xunye, and his mood was unconsciously excited.
Lin Xunye now made him even more excited.
Gu Pei's eyes did not shrink. Under normal circumstances, Lin Xunye would have rebuked him. But now, Lin Xunye's mind was full of the faces of the Lin family after they succeeded, and he did not notice Gu Pei's almost presumptuous eyes at all.
"Gu Pei, do you want to have a wedding with me?" Lin Xunye asked through gritted teeth.
Gu Pei raised his eyebrows, and his sliding Adam's apple seemed to be judging the true meaning of Lin Xunye's words. After all, his expression did not look happy.
Lin Xunye's expression became increasingly ugly amidst Gu Pei's silence.
In his view, silence is acquiescence.
Getting married was already an exception for him. If he held another wedding, it would really fulfill Lin Gaoyuan's wish.
He would never succumb to Lin Gaoyuan's "previous life theory".
Lin Xunye's pale fingertips trembled, and just as his tightly pursed lips opened, Gu Pei rejected his words before him: "No, I don't have any plans for a wedding for the time being. If you do, we can discuss it in detail."
Hearing this, Lin Xunye immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He withdrew his hand, released his strength and slammed himself into the sofa.
Seeing his actions, Gu Pei's heart ached.
Without warning, a dream he had long ago suddenly flashed through his mind.
In the dream, a person whose face could not be seen clearly was standing opposite him with a bouquet of flowers. Large fields of lavender covered the entire venue, and it was as beautiful as the day when they expressed their love to each other.
Everything was so beautiful, but the words that person said were so heartbreaking: "I will not marry you."
"You don't love me at all. I'm just your tool. Why can't you let me go?"
"I am also a human being, not an emotionless beast."
Gu Pei wanted to say no, wanted to tell him that he had never treated him as a tool, but he woke up the next second.
The dream disappeared.
Everything in reality seems to overlap with the dream.
Gu Pei closed the file and spoke as if to Lin Xunye, or perhaps to himself: "I won't force you to do anything. You are an independent individual with the right to choose your own life. I will never influence your thoughts, nor will I hurt you."
“This is a guarantee and a commitment.”
Lin Xunye's terrible mood eased a little, but he still said stubbornly: "How can I know whether what you said is true or not? Alpha's words are the most untrustworthy. If you break the contract in the future, what will you do?"
"Then I can die for you."
Gu Pei's answer was completely beyond Lin Xunye's expectations.
Although he had thought about leaving when he couldn't hold on any longer, he never revealed it to others.
This sentence is like a taboo.
It sounds light, but it carries a lot of weight.
The air in his chest was exhaled violently, and Lin Xunye's face showed anger that he himself was not aware of.
He stood up and walked to Gu Pei's side. His long, beautiful fingers grabbed Gu Pei's tie and pulled it forward: "Gu Pei, you'd better always keep your promise. Don't forget that you still owe me an unlimited order. I won't give up this good opportunity to see you suffer."
The strength in his hands kept increasing, but Gu Pei seemed not to feel it. He even followed Lin Xunye's strength and threw himself into his arms.
Lin Xunye's hand that was holding the tie loosened, and Gu Pei took the opportunity to hold his hand and pressed down his wrist. Lin Xunye's body was unstable and he fell into Gu Pei's arms.
Gu Pei hugged him, and the two of them looked like a real couple.
After a while, Gu Pei asked: "When is the estrus period next month?"
Lin Xunye replied dryly: "I'm not sure, it could be number 4, or it could be number 10 or so."
The tense atmosphere disappeared. Gu Pei hummed softly, his breath hitting Lin Xunye's glands: "Do you need me to help you get through this?"
Lin Xunye subconsciously refused: "No, I have an inhibitor."
As soon as he finished speaking, the back of his neck was pinched.
Gu Pei said in a tone that was almost unacceptable: "Inhibitors are unsafe. I can help you without any side effects."
"Aye, you don't want to go through the same thing as last time, do you?"
Lin Xunye was silent.
Lin Xunye still remembers what happened last time.
He had been diagnosed with the possibility of pheromone disorder before, and the doctor suggested that he find an Alpha partner and reduce the frequency of using inhibitors, but Lin Xunye did not listen.
A partner is not part of his future plans.
Everything that is happening now is off track, and Lin Xunye is a little confused.
Does he really want to accept Gu Pei's experience?
But they are not your husband and wife in this photo, they are just partners.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken, Gu Pei reminded him: "We signed an agreement."
"Article 58: Both parties must provide each other with pheromones under necessary conditions. Failure to do so will constitute a breach of contract."
"Aye, this is your right."
"You have the power over me."
Gu Pei's deep and magnetic voice was like an unsharpened dagger, cutting back and forth in Lin Xunye's heart, but he never had the heart to stab it.
Lin Xunye coughed and tapped the table with his fingertips: "Mr. Gu, take what you said seriously."
Anyway, Gu Pei has a good figure, and he also needs an Alpha to replace the inhibitor. The two of them are a legal couple, so he will not lose out no matter how he looks at it.
Gu Peixu lowered his hand from Lin Xunye's waist: "Seriously."
Expected answer.
Lin Xunye inexplicably relaxed, his eyes, previously brimming with anger, now replaced by calmness. He sat on Gu Pei's lap, feeling Gu Pei stroking his back like he was petting a kitten.
As if afraid that he would regret it, Gu Pei stopped what he was doing, turned on the recorder on his phone and asked again: "I'll help you through your estrus period from now on, okay?"
Gu Pei blurred out the words "afterwards" and Lin Xunye couldn't quite hear them, but he understood the general meaning. He nodded and said without hesitation what Gu Pei had been waiting for for a long time: "Yes, I agree."
The recording ends.
Gu Pei patted Lin Xunye's back in a good mood. Lin Xunye turned his head and glared at him, then jumped off his lap. "It's okay, I'm leaving first. I don't understand the project contract either, so you can handle it yourself."
Finally, Lin Xunye paused and lowered his voice: "Anyway, don't let Lin Gaoyuan get any benefits, otherwise I will hate you."
He opened the door and almost bumped into the assistant who was carrying tea.
The assistant smiled awkwardly and quickly stepped aside, "Mr. Lin, do you need me to take you down?"
"No need." Lin Xunye took two quick steps and left the door.
The assistant stood at the door, his head tilted back, still looking.
Gu Pei knocked heavily on the table. The assistant came back to his senses and raised one foot to go in, but heard Gu Pei knock on the table again.
The assistant glanced at him, closed the door and ran away.
Gu Pei's azure eyes deepened as he stared at the photo of Lin Xunye in the barber shop sent by Yu Ji on his phone.
Just at this moment, Yu Ji called.
Gu Pei hung up, and Yu Ji sent another message - see you at the bar at 8 o'clock tomorrow night.
