Last night, every time Gu Baiwei closed her eyes, she dreamed of Shen Yanqing pinching her waist and pressing her against the back seat of the car to kiss her, so much so that when she woke up in the morning, there were dark circles under her eyes.
Ye Chuyue, still half asleep, sat at the dining table eating breakfast. Hearing the noise, she looked up and greeted Gu Baiwei: "Auntie... Holy crap, what's wrong with you? You look like you've been drained of your life force by a demon."
Gu Baiwei forced a stiff smile, and suddenly the image of Shen Yanqing's crazed eyes flashed in her mind: his long, reddish eyes, his watery pupils, and his handsome face... he really did look like a demon.
Realizing what she was thinking, Gu Baiwei immediately snapped back to reality. That was a ruthless gangster boss who killed without blinking an eye. In the original book, apart from the female lead, Shen Yanqing hardly cared about anyone. He could even kill his uncles and cousins without batting an eye. She would only provoke him if she didn't want to live.
"Don't talk nonsense, I just had a nightmare last night and didn't sleep well..."
After he finished speaking, he noticed that Ye Chuyue's face was a little pale. He then realized that although the little girl looked very calm on the surface, she was still afraid of what happened yesterday. She probably had a lot of nightmares last night.
After all, even an adult like her couldn't accept watching those thugs kill people right in front of her, let alone a little girl like her.
Thinking of this, her heart softened, and she walked over and patted Ye Chuyue's head: "Yueyue, I'm going out in a bit, can I take you to school on the way?"
A look of delight flashed across Ye Chuyue's face, then she coughed lightly and said in a casual tone, "Alright."
After a quick breakfast, Gu Baiwei was affectionately led out the door by Ye Chuyue, who was holding her arm in arm. Just as she stepped outside, her phone rang abruptly.
The moment she opened her phone, she saw Shen Yanqing's name.
Why is that devilish Shen... ugh, what's Boss Shen calling so early in the morning?
As Gu Baiwei walked, she pressed the answer button, and Shen Yanqing's deep, magnetic voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.
"Weiwei, are you free tonight?"
Gu Baiwei immediately became alert: "What is it?"
A low laugh came from the other end of the phone: "I'm attending a business gala tonight and would like to invite you to be my date."
"No time, I'm hanging up."
Gu Baiwei hung up the phone immediately after speaking, looking as if she was afraid he would eat her alive, which made Shen Yanqing unable to help but curl up the corners of his lips. It seemed that he had really scared her yesterday.
On the other side, Gu Baiwei only realized after hanging up the phone that she had just hung up on Boss Shen. Could he have sent someone to assassinate her?
After nervously dropping Ye Chuyue off at school, nothing happened along the way, and Gu Baiwei finally relaxed.
She stood at the door and watched Ye Chuyue go in. Then she saw Ye Chuyue's top student classmates, Lin Shuo and Li Nanxing, huddle together next to Ye Chuyue, chatting and laughing.
Where Ye Chuyue couldn't see, their eyes met, and sparks flew between them.
This familiar scene is just like the jealous rivalry between top students and school bullies in a campus romance story.
Gu Baiwei's eyes flashed with worry as if her own daughter had been taken by a pig. Could it be that after dodging Xia Shihan, her daughter had been stolen away by these two brats?
A strong sense of crisis instantly welled up in her heart. No, Ye Chuyue is at a crucial stage of her senior year of high school, and she absolutely cannot be distracted by puppy love.
Just then, someone called her from behind.
Gu Baiwei turned around and saw Qi Yu walking towards her unhurriedly.
The boy, dressed in a simple white shirt and jeans, wore a slightly pleased smile on his handsome, pale face: "Sister Weiwei."
Gu Baiwei greeted him generously: "Classmate Qi".
At this moment, more and more students gathered around, and several girls saw Qi Yu and whispered excitedly to each other.
Gu Baiwei vaguely heard the content of their conversation.
"Ahhh, Qi Da's face is just too much!"
"Too bad, School Heartthrob Qi only likes rich women, don't even think about it."
"Hey, wait a minute, could that be the rich woman that School Heartthrob Qi recently hooked up with?"
"Tsk, she has a nice figure, but I wonder what her face looks like that she needs to pay money to find a man..."
Someone made a sarcastic remark, but the rest of the sentence suddenly got stuck in their throat.
Gu Baiwei happened to hear the commotion and glanced over, only to meet the shocked gazes of the group of girls.
Today she was wearing a light-colored tracksuit, her long, jet-black hair was tied in a high ponytail, and she had light makeup on her face. She looked like a pure and innocent heroine from a romance novel.
The girls who were just talking about it stared wide-eyed in disbelief, all thinking at the same time, "With a face like that, she still needs to pay money to find a man?"
At this moment, Qi Yu, who was standing next to Gu Baiwei, looked over with a faint smile on her lips: "Excuse me, you may have misunderstood something. I am not being kept by you, but pursuing you."
After speaking, he looked at Gu Baiwei with a shy expression. The little puppy-like boy looked over with a shy and timid look, which completely stunned Gu Baiwei. Her daughter's classmate actually wanted to pursue her? This plot was too outrageous.
Meeting her shocked gaze, Qi Yu's smile deepened: "I wonder if you, sister, would be willing to give me this opportunity?"
As he spoke, he bent slightly and extended a hand to Gu Baiwei in an inviting gesture.
The moment their eyes met, Gu Baiwei looked away as if she had been burned: "Um... Qi... I still have rice cooking in the pot, I'll go first."
After saying that, he turned and left before Qi Yu could react.
Behind her, the girl who had just doubted her looks suddenly mustered up her courage and shouted at her, "Sister, say yes to him!"
Gu Baiwei stumbled and almost fell, but quickly limped onto her car.
Qi Yu watched her start the car and drive away, a glint of light in her eyes. Sister, this time I will hold you tight and make you belong to me alone forever.
That afternoon, a post about the school heartthrob publicly confessing his love quickly became a trending topic on the campus forum.
Ye Chuyue was watching Lin Shuo and Li Nanxing arguing fiercely about how to solve a problem when she suddenly saw a post on the school forum.
I clicked in excitedly. Ugh, these two have been arguing all morning. It's so boring. Finally, I have some gossip to read.
Then she excitedly clicked on the post, and her face instantly turned green.
Damn it, the subject of their gossip is her aunt.
While Li Nanxing and Lin Shuo were arguing, she immediately ran to the bathroom to call Gu Baiwei.
On the other side, Gu Baiwei was helping Xia Shihan choose a dress for the banquet that evening.
Just as her phone rang, Ye Sinian arrived. Without even looking at it, she hung up and greeted him with a smile.
Of all things, her son getting married is the most important.
"Niannian, you've finally arrived. Shihan just went in to change her clothes."
Gu Baiwei immediately pulled Ye Sinian towards the fitting room door, and Ye Sinian said somewhat awkwardly, "I'll just wait outside..."
Before she could finish speaking, Xia Shihhan opened the door and came out.
