“Childhood friend?” Lu Ye raised a brow and asked, “Which one?”
Gu Yan grinned. “It seems you have a few.”
“Sigh, no.” This misconception, he had to clear his name immediately.
Lu Ye furrowed his brows. “Childhood friends should be reserved for a boy and a girl who grew up together and maintained a good relationship, right? However, shouldn’t most young children treat each other as playmates? They wouldn’t be able to connect it to something as serious as love. Moreover, when I was young, I was the person who was bossing around everyone. All the kids of the elite families followed me around.”
Seeing that Gu Yan remained silent, he asked, “Wifey, don’t you believe me?”
“I believe you, but I have no faith in others.”
Due to her previous life, Gu Yan knew that Mrs. Lu Qin Lanzhi was a difficult elder to deal with.
Since that girl who grew up with Lu Ye was favored by her, there would be plenty of trouble in the future.
If she would never appear in front of them, then never mind.
However, if she did appear, Gu Yan wasn’t going to give her an ounce of chance!
It was quite necessary to plan ahead.
After all, if a woman truly wanted a man at all costs, she could do anything and cross several lines.
For example, Bai Weiyang and Gu Molly did exactly that in their previous life.
If Gu Yan only indulged herself in the fleeting happiness of today, she would be foolish to do so. She shouldn’t be blindsided because of love. Otherwise, her second chance at life would all be for naught.
Soon, Lu Ye caught on.
Moreover, he was well aware that Song Yaqin always had feelings for him.
Even though he already rejected her completely before.
He slowly sat down and held her hand. Lu Ye said sincerely, “Yan, I know what you mean. Don’t worry, I will handle those troubles. You need to have confidence in your man. You’re the only one in my heart. My heart isn’t wide enough to fit other people. Having you inside is enough. There won’t be any more girls entering!”
Gu Yan hoped Lu Ye would be wary of that woman. She believed Lu Ye was a man of his words.
She nodded and looked up at Lu Ye.
Gu Yan cared more about Mrs. Lu.
She was going to marry Lu Ye no matter what. No one could stop them from being together.
But then again, she didn’t want to see Lu Ye quarrel with his family just for her.
In this lifetime, she only wanted to live peacefully and joyfully with Lu Ye.
The matter regarding Mrs. Lu had to be resolved, but there was no need to rush everything.
It was not the best time to mention it too.
Gu Yan looked down and reminded herself anything can be resolved in the future.
She had even faced death before.
‘What else is she supposed to be scared of now?’
Thinking Gu Yan stopped talking due to doubt, Lu Ye misunderstood and quickly said, “Wifey, trust me, I can do it. If I can’t even handle that, what right do I have to become your husband?”
“Lu Ye.”
“Hmm?”
“I believe you.” Gu Yan was too careful because she cared too much about this man.
She reached out her left hand and gently touched Lu Ye’s face. She beamed and exclaimed, “I’m set on you in this life!”
Lu Ye was completely shocked.
Sometimes, he also had the feeling he had already known Gu Yan for a long time.
Although Lu Ye was confident and outstanding, he would still feel nervous sometimes, worrying Gu Yan didn’t know him well enough.
But at this moment, it became clear to him.
The girl facing him not only knew him very well, but she also trusted him a lot.
She had handed her entire life in his hands!
Lu Ye felt thrilled. The feeling brought upon by finding the one you love, who can understand you perfectly, left him elated!
Just when Lu Ye wanted to embrace his little wife into his arms and kiss her, two people interrupted them suddenly.
People he detested!
