Ye Chuyue was awakened by the scream and almost fell off the bed.
"What kind of ghost is this so early in the morning?"
She rubbed her messy hair as she walked out of the room, bumping right into Gu Baiwei, who was rushing out of the room.
"What's the rush for you so early in the morning?"
Gu Baiwei suddenly raised her head, and her two swollen, red eyes were particularly noticeable on her fair face.
Ye Chuyue couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Gu Baiwei pounced on her and started tickling her: "So you can laugh at me."
The mother and daughter immediately started bickering.
Ye Sinian, who was sitting downstairs quietly drinking coffee, looked up and saw this scene upstairs, and a slight smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
As Liu Ma carried breakfast out of the kitchen, she glanced up and was immediately startled, her eyes widening. She couldn't help but think of a classic line: "It's been so long since I've seen the young master smile like that."
On the other side, Shen Yanqing, who usually sleeps very well, suffered from insomnia for the first time.
When he closed his eyes, all he could see in his mind was that tearful little face.
He suppressed his frustration and took out his phone to dial a number.
If Gu Baiwei were here, she would definitely recognize this number; it belongs to Xia Shihhan, the future daughter-in-law she has been trying so hard to bring together.
After his previous attempt to save the damsel in distress failed, Shen Yanqing still managed to get to know Xia Shihhan through his own means.
The two had also made plans to go to an art exhibition together today.
After applying an ice pack to her eyes, Gu Baiwei carefully examined herself in the mirror for a moment. Only after confirming that nothing was wrong did she suddenly remember that she had important things to do today.
She rushed downstairs and stopped Ye Sinian, who was about to leave.
"Every year, you must remember to go to today's art exhibition."
Ye Sinian frowned: "I'll try my best."
After saying that, he strode out the door with his long legs.
Once Gu Baiwei saw that the person had walked away, she immediately took out her phone to call Xia Shihhan, only to receive a shocking message: Xia Shihhan had already made plans to go to an art exhibition.
She had previously made some subtle inquiries and learned that Xia Shihhan really liked the paintings of a well-known Chinese painter, who was about to hold an exhibition in Linhai City.
In an effort to bring the two together, Gu Baiwei went to great lengths to obtain three tickets to an art exhibition, planning to lure them both there before slipping away to create an opportunity for them to be alone.
The thought that the male and female protagonists went to an art exhibition together in the novel instantly triggered alarm bells in Gu Baiwei's mind.
Damn it, despite all the precautions, we still couldn't stop the male lead from getting close to the female lead.
No, she has to go and stop it.
Half an hour later, she appeared at the art exhibition wearing a simple beige suit.
Her smooth, dark hair fell casually down her back, and the leather belt accentuated her slender waist.
The moment it appeared, it attracted the attention of many men.
Gu Baiwei glanced around but didn't see Xia Shihan. Instead, she saw a figure that surprised her greatly.
It turned out to be that dangerous man from yesterday.
In an instant, some images from yesterday's drunken days flashed through my mind.
She immediately wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground; it was so damn embarrassing.
Never mind, let's just pretend we didn't see it.
As soon as Shen Yanqing arrived at the place he had agreed to meet with Xia Shihan, he vaguely sensed a gaze falling on him.
He turned his head to look, but saw nothing but a throng of heads.
Or is it just my imagination?
Before he could think any further, he saw Xia Shihan waving at him with a smile in the distance. He immediately put on his usual gentle smile and strode towards her.
The moment Shen Yanqing looked over, Gu Baiwei immediately ducked into the crowd, and only breathed a sigh of relief after he looked away.
Yesterday was absolutely awful; she never wants to see that man again in her life.
The moment she had that thought, she spotted a slender figure in a white dress in the crowd and immediately ran over with a look of delight on her face.
"Shihan!"
She ran over and gently patted the young girl on the shoulder, only to suddenly meet a pair of dark, deep eyes.
Gu Baiwei's expression cracked for a moment. Could someone tell her why the man next to Xia Shihan was the one she had just managed to avoid?
Just as she was hesitating whether to go up and say hello, Shen Yanqing glanced at her indifferently and asked in a gentle voice, "Shihan, who is this?"
Shih-Han? Why are you calling her so intimately?
Gu Baiwei instantly became alert. Could this person be the legendary male lead, Shen Yanqing?
Meeting her shocked gaze, Xia Shihhan quickly introduced them to each other.
"Mr. Shen, this is Ms. Gu."
As she spoke, she took Gu Baiwei's hand again: "Auntie, this is Mr. Shen, my friend."
"Auntie?"
Shen Yanqing's lips curled slightly, and an interest flashed in his eyes.
Xia Shihhan blushed slightly and explained softly, "Ms. Gu is my fiancé's aunt."
"Then can I call her... Auntie?"
Shen Yanqing lowered his eyes to look at Gu Baiwei, his voice deep and magnetic.
These slightly flippant words sent a chill down Gu Baiwei's spine.
He turned out to be the male lead, Shen Yanqing, the legendary ruthless gangster boss.
In the original novel, Shen Yanqing once crippled the hands and feet of two thugs who harassed Xia Shihan and threw them into the river to feed the fish.
The thought that she had actually beaten such a vicious pervert last night made her head spin.
She's in big trouble now.
"Auntie, you don't look well. Would you like me to help you over there to rest for a bit?"
A playful glint flashed in Shen Yanqing's eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses as he smiled at her.
