"Your mouth really stinks." Shangguan Yu’s expression was extremely unpleasant.
The usually jovial and careless Shangguan Yu seemed like a completely different person when it came to matters related to Gu Yao.
"Hehe..." Ais chuckled dryly, "Thanks for the compliment~" Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel⚑fire.net
"I told you, if I see you in the Capital City again, I won’t let you go."
As soon as Shangguan Yu had spoken, his aide immediately drew a gun and pressed it against Ais’s waist.
Ais lowered his gaze to the pistol at his waist, smiled, and didn’t take it seriously.
His hands loosely pocketed in his dress pants, he completely ignored the deadly and dangerous pistol, leisurely and with a hint of watching a good show, he turned to Shangguan Yu with a bright smile.
"Look to your right at ten o’clock, there’s a surprise for you~"
Shangguan Yu, seeing Ais’s mischievous smile, curiously turned his head to the right, the direction Ais indicated.
With just one look, Shangguan Yu couldn’t shift his gaze away; he just stood there staring stupidly at the person there, his eyes instantly changing.
The aide also looked over and immediately, upon seeing that person, discreetly put away the gun, then looked at Shangguan Yu with some worry.
He quietly called out, "Boss?"
It was unclear if Shangguan Yu heard the aide’s voice as he continued to stare blankly at the figure, lost in thought.
It wasn’t until their eyes met that Shangguan Yu snapped back to reality.
He quickly averted his gaze and turned his head away, eyes full of panic and confusion, his heart racing with tension.
His hand by his side clenched and then relaxed.
He didn’t dare linger there any longer and started to walk away.
As he passed by Ais, his arm was tightly grabbed by Ais.
Ais’s voice, mocking and triumphant, rang out, "I really want to put a mirror in front of you, to let you see how disheveled you look right now."
Having said that, before Shangguan Yu could shake off his hand, Ais had already let go of him first.
"You better be careful," Shangguan Yu warned, then hurried away.
It was as if there were a flood or a ferocious beast behind him, forcing him to flee.
Gu Yao watched Shangguan Yu’s rapidly retreating figure, her lips curling into a bitter, faint smile.
I arrive and you leave, are you really that eager to avoid me?
Am I a demon or a plague?
Are you that afraid of me?
Even going as far as to use other girls to deceive me.
Gu Yao’s gaze followed Shangguan Yu’s departing figure until he completely disappeared from sight, and then she walked towards Ais.
"What a coincidence, meeting you here," Ais said, smiling as he looked at Gu Yao approaching him.
Gu Yao smiled, "I came out to buy some things, how about you?"
"Had a meeting with a client."
Gu Yao nodded, glanced in the direction Shangguan Yu had left, and asked seemingly casually, "Was that person you just met the client you were talking about?"
"Then, is he your friend?" Gu Yao asked further.
"Hmm... not exactly, he is from the Shangguan Family, you being from the Gu Family, your statuses are quite similar, you should know him, right?" Ais countered.
Gu Yao smiled, her smile tinged with sadness as she muttered to herself, "Know him? Our relationship is worse than that of two strangers."
At least, two strangers might have a pleasant conversation, but she didn’t even have the chance to speak with him.
"Is there some unpleasantness between you two?" Ais asked, knowingly.
