At this moment, the sound of light footsteps rang in his ears. Gu Yilin looked up and saw Xia Xiaodie walking over.
Xia Xiaodie held a black striped tie in her fair little hand. Then, she approached him and tiptoed to tie the tie for him.
“Is this tie okay?”
Because she had chosen it, she did not know if he could do it, so Xia Xiaodie looked at him and asked.
Gu Yilin put one hand into his trouser pocket. Due to the difference in height between the two of them, he lowered his tall and straight body slightly to match her movements. “Why didn’t you sleep a little longer?”
Xia Xiaodie shook her little head. “I don’t want to sleep anymore. I have to work on my thesis later.”
Gu Yilin raised his dashing eyebrows. “OH.”
“Alright.”
Xia Xiaodie finished tying his tie.
Gu Yilin reached out to grab his black suit. “I’m leaving.”
He left immediately.
However, a small hand reached out and grabbed his shirt sleeve with her slender white fingers.
Gu Yilin stopped in his tracks and looked back. He saw Xia Xiaodie’s black and clear almond-shaped eyes fall on his handsome face. She looked a little like a clingy girlfriend who was reluctant to part with her boyfriend.
Gu Yilin was a straight man. In addition, he liked her. He had already fallen for her trick half a year ago. As long as she showed him some mercy, he would do whatever she wanted.
Xia Xiaodie was not even 20 years old yet. Even if she was just a full-grown woman, she did not have much experience in love. A young girl with a blank sheet of paper would be shy and timid. There was also a little bit of softness and coquettishness in her bones. She was exceptionally doting and affectionate, now that it had fallen on Gu Yilin, no matter how much he resented her and hated her, no matter how cold his heart was, with the intimate relationship between the two of them now, Gu Yilin also felt that he was a little taken in by her.
“What’s Wrong?”
Gu Yilin asked in a low voice.
Xia Xiaodie’s little face was red. Actually… she wanted to give him the birthday gift that she bought at the mall that day, which was the couple’s key chain.
The female classmates around her who were in love all had the same style as her boyfriend. Clothes, shoes, watches, and so on.
But Xia Xiaodie thought about it and didn’t give it to him, because… they were not a couple at all.
He had said that their relationship could not be made public. He would not wear a couple’s pendant with her at all. It would be bad if others found out.
Xia Xiaodie came in front of him and quickly kissed his handsome cheek. “It’s nothing. You can go.”
Gu Yilin did not leave. He looked at her with a deep gaze. “Do you know what you were doing just now?”
“I do. Didn’t you… Remind me to follow the rules of the game? Half a year ago, you helped me, so I naturally… will be fine… with you. Or do you like me a little more?”Xia Xiaodie threw out the “Stone”joke again.
Gu Yilin raised his dashing eyebrows. His long and narrow eyebrows exuded a hint of maturity. It was obvious that he was in a good mood.
Gu Yilin approached her and moved closer to her lips.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. “Yilin, Yilin, what time is it? Why are you still sleeping in your room? This isn’t like you. Come out quickly!”
The anxious voice of the aunt could be heard. “Young Master Nan, Stop Knocking. Young master is still resting.”
Nancheng had arrived.
Xia Xiaodie was shocked and quickly took a step back.
Gu Yilin looked at her fluttering face. His face was so red that it was about to bleed. It was as if he had done something wrong and was discovered by someone else. It was very funny.
Gu Yilin put his hands into his trouser pocket and looked at the closed door, “I took Nancheng away half a year ago, but I can’t take him away for the rest of his life. I have a good relationship with Nancheng, and the Gu and Nan families are old friends. So, behave yourself. Don’t get involved with him, don’t go near him, and don’t talk to him. Do you understand?”
Xia Xiaodie nodded and said obediently, “I understand. I’ll avoid him and don’t make things difficult for you.”
Gu Yilin stood up straight, glanced at her, and then walked out.
..
Outside the door, Nan Cheng raised his hand and was about to continue knocking on the door, but the tightly shut door suddenly opened and Gu Yilin came out.
Nan Cheng looked at Gu Yilin suspiciously. They had known each other for so many years, but Nan Cheng had never seen Gu Yilin leave the room at eight o’clock in the morning. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that something was fishy.
“Yilin, why did you wake up so late? It’s been said that you’ve been a workaholic for the past six months. What happened? Did you try to catch up on sleep last night?”
“Yilin, did you hide a mistress in your room? Let Me Go in and take a look.”
Nan Cheng was about to go in as he spoke.
However, Gu Yilin stood tall and straight by the door, blocking Nan Cheng’s prying eyes. Now, he reached out and closed the door.
“Go play somewhere else.”
Gu Yilin kicked Nan Cheng and went downstairs.
Nan Cheng wailed and quickly followed Gu Yilin, “Damn, Yilin, I’ve been unlucky for the past six months. Someone played tricks, causing my old master to send me away. I’ve Been Gone for six months. I only came back yesterday after pretending to be sick.”
“Yilin, did you help me find the person who played tricks? If I find out who is behind this, I won’t let him go!”
Nan Cheng gritted his teeth in hatred. He was the crown prince of the Nan family and was used to living a carefree life. In the past six months, he was practically an ascetic, so he had to find out who was behind this.
Gu Ye Lin walked down the stairs with his long legs. There was no emotion on his handsome and noble face. He only curled his thin lips. “Then let’s wait until you find out who it is.”
“I’ll definitely find out. Yilin, I Won’t talk to you anymore. I’m leaving first. I’m meeting someone at a bar tonight. You must come.”Nan Cheng ran away.
Gu Yilin stood in the hall. At this time, his aunt walked over and asked in a soft and hesitant voice, “Young master, do you want to prepare… medicine for Miss Xia?”
Gu Yilin’s deep and narrow eyes were bottomless. A few seconds later, he nodded. “Yes.”
He lifted his foot and left.
Gu Yilin entered the rolls-royce phantom luxury car. He did not start the car immediately. His right hand, which was wearing an expensive wristwatch, was casually placed on the steering wheel. Then, he dialed the phone number of his personal secretary, Li Fan.
..
In the room, Xia Xiaodie washed up and changed her clothes. At this moment, the door was pushed open and the Auntie walked in.
“Miss Xia, this…”
The Auntie handed over a bowl of soup and medicine, but it was not appropriate to say it out loud.
Xia Xiaodie understood. She had drunk it half a year ago and her red lips curved into a shallow arc. “Auntie, you don’t have to make things difficult for me. I understand.”
Xia Xiaodie picked up the bowl of soup and drank it all.
“Miss Xia, actually, young master doesn’t have any other intentions. For a person with young master’s status, he is very careful about his children. This is also a show of being responsible for your children. Moreover, this bowl of soup and medicine does not harm the body. Young master still cares about you a lot.”
Xia Xiaodie nodded. “Aunty, you don’t have to comfort me. I know.”
