Tears were welling up in Tian Wen’s eyes, and with a stomp of her foot she announced, “Well if that’s how it is, then so be it! What’s so great about Ye Xingli… I hate him!”
She covered her mouth and ran away.
He wondered what his second brother had done to the poor girl.
Two months ago, his second brother was still as innocent as a chick. He had no idea if that was still the case.
Dealing with the secretary who was betraying them from within the company, Ye Xingbei tilted his head towards Gu Junzhu: “Let’s go, we have to pick up Xiao Shu or we’ll be late!”
“So ruthless!” Gu Junzhu sighed while walking side by side with her, shaking his head, “Why do women have to be hard on each other!”
Ye Xingbei cast him a sidelong glance, “What, you feel pity for her?”
“How could I possibly?” Gu Junzhu put his arm around her slender waist: “I am a good man. A good man only cares about his wife, and other women’s lives have nothing to do with me.”
“Oh, don’t try to fool me,” Ye Xingbei sneered: “If it weren’t for your trick of playing the handsome guy, would Tian Wen have lost her head over you, even forgetting basic professionalism?”
“There was indeed someone playing the handsome guy trick, just not me,”, Gu Junzhu turned his head and looked at Gu Chi, who was following not far behind them, “Xiao Chi, tell our Young Madam who played the handsome guy trick?”
Gu Chi scratched his head and looked at Ye Xingbei with an apologetic smile, “Young Madam, ensuring that our young master gets a clear path wherever he wants to go is my job. Please don’t blame me.”
“…” Ye Xingbei was speechless for a moment, “Your young master plans to go to outer space.”
Gu Chi glanced at Gu Junzhu and shook his head, saying, “That’s impossible, our young master is very reasonable and won’t make unreasonable demands.”
“…” Ye Xingbei shifted her gaze back to Gu Junzhu and jabbed him in the rips, “Hey, why do you argue with me instead of your subordinates? As a man, how could you argue with a woman like me?”
“When did I ever argue with you?” Gu Junzhu looked wronged.
“You have argued with me many times!” Ye Xingbei gave an example, “Just now, you were arguing with me about Xueno giving me a massage!”
“That’s not arguing,” Gu Junzhu pulled her closer, “That’s flirtation!”
“Stay away from me!” Ye Xingbei pushed him: “This is a public place, no touching! I won’t flirt with you!”
Gu Junzhu remained unmoved: “What are you afraid of? We are legally married! Interaction between a married couple is not considered inappropriate, it’s called love and affection!”
The two of them bickered all the way to the door.
They turned a corner on their way down the stairs and ran into Jiang Siyou and Jiang Lingyu, who were coming up the stairs.
Jiang Siyou and Jiang Lingyu, who had been talking softly, froze in their tracks.
Jiang Lingyu was the first to react, she quickly moved to the side, lowered her head, and respectfully greeted Ye Xingbei: “Hello, Director.”
Jiang Siyou’s heart fluttered, she unwillingly lowering her head, stepped aside, swallowed her humiliation, and also respectfully greeted Ye Xingbei: “Hello, Director.”
Ye Xingbei seemed as if she hadn’t seen them, and walked past them as if they were invisible.
Gu Junzhu literally treated them like air. All he could see was Ye Xingbei, saying something casually that made her laugh and frown, giggling while she playfully pinched him..
