Liang Xinwei did not sleep well all night. She tossed and turned thinking about Gu Nian’s confession. She did not know Gu Nian for long, but he had treated her quite well. If she could, she should have been more tactful and less blunt. When she reached the western restaurant and got ready for her shift, Song Ran pulled her aside and asked softly, “Did you accept Big Brother Gu?” Liang Xinwei shook her head, “No.” “Why?” Song Ran did not understand, “Is there anything wrong with him?” “He’s great, but I don’t like him.” Song Ran could not help but sigh and said in frustration, “Why are you so dumb? Even if you don’t like him you can give it a try, perhaps you will like him.” Liang Xinwei bit her lip, “Actually…” “Actually what?” Song Ran interrupted her impatiently, “I really will die of anger with you. It’s very difficult for you to find a man willing to take care of a child with you given your circumstances. You’ve found one despite the odds and you actually rejected h
After breakfast, Shangguan Yuan sent Jin Fengchen upstairs before she called for the butler. “Uncle Zhang, tell me the truth. Who made breakfast today?” “It’s…it’s the new maid.” The butler still tried to cover for Jiang Sese. However, Shangguan Yuan was smart and she instantly guessed it. “It’s that Shu Yun girl, am I right?” The butler could only nod. “Yes.” Shangguan Yuan’s eyes narrowed, and she said sternly, “Call for her.” The butler had no choice but to go to the kitchen to call for her. “Shu Yun, the Young Miss is calling for you.” When Jiang Sese heard this, she was quite puzzled. “She’s looking for me?” “She knows that you made breakfast today.” “So?” Was she here to give her trouble just because she prepared breakfast? The butler sighed. “Don’t ask any more questions. Just go in case she gets angry.” Helplessly, Jiang Sese could only obey and go see Shangguan Yuan. Shangguan Yuan sat in the living room, her body leaning against the back of the sof
Fang Yuchen parked the car in front of the entrance to the neighborhood and called Liang Xinwei. “I’m at the entrance to the neighborhood. Come on out.” There was an “Okay,” on the other end of the line before the call was hung up. Roughly ten minutes later, Liang Xinwei appeared at the entrance to the neighborhood. When Fang Yuchen saw her jog over, his lips curled despite himself and even his eyes softened. “I’m sorry to make you wait.” Liang Xinwei panted lightly as she got into the car. “You really didn’t need to rush.” Fang Yuchen smiled at her as he started the car in a deliberate manner. Liang Xinwei was glued to her phone, memorizing her script on the way to the venue. She was very engrossed and was mumbling her lines. Fang Yuchen turned to look at her phone in curiosity and saw the compact block of lines of words on the screen. “What’s all this?” he asked. Liang Xinwei turned to look at him and smiled slightly, “It’s my script. I need to say a few words o
Fang Yuchen was dragged by Ye Xiaoyi to meet her parents. “Mom, Dad, Yuchen is here.” When they heard her, Mr. and Mrs. Ye ended their conversations with the other guests and turned to look. “Yuchen, long time no see,” Mr. Ye said with a laugh. “Hello, Uncle, Aunty.” Fang Yuchen bowed his head politely. Mrs. Ye looked behind him and asked curiously, “Where’s your father? Did he not come with you?” “My father will be arriving later.” Mr. Ye studied him from head to toe with a pleased look. “You’re really turning into a fine young man.” Fang Yuchen smiled. “Thank you for your kind words, Uncle.” “Dad, of course he’s a fine young man. Why else would your daughter admire him?” Ye Xiaoyi lifted her chin in pride. Mr. Ye laughed. “Yes, you have good taste.” “Of course.” Ye Xiaoyi clung onto Fang Yuchen affectionately, beaming widely. Fang Yuchen was rather distracted. From time to time, he would look around to look for Liang Xinwei in the lobby. There were quite a lot
After hearing what Ye Chenyun had to say, Liang Xinwei wanted to refuse. However she changed her mind when she saw the pleading look in his eyes. She just had to pretend to be his girlfriend for a while. It was not a big deal, was it? In any case, after this, she would not need to see Mr. and Mrs. Ye again. Therefore, she followed him to meet Mr. and Mrs. Ye.She saw Fang Yuchen standing next to Ye Xiaoyi, looking like a perfect couple. She lowered her head and hid the disappointment in her eyes, laughing at herself. He and Ye Xiaoyi were from different worlds. She really had no way of marrying up.“Mom, Dad, this is my girlfriend.” Fang Yuchen’s pupils contracted when Ye Chenyun said that. He looked at Liang Xinwei, who stood next to him, in disbelief. Since when was she Ye Chenyun’s girlfriend? Why did he not know about it? Meanwhile, Ye Xiaoyi had a smug look on her face. Liang Xinwei took a deep breath and looked up, pretending to ignore Fang Yuchen’s shocked
How he felt about her? Liang Xinwei was stunned, what kind of feelings was he talking about? Her dumbfounded expression was pretty cute. Fang Yuchen could not help but laugh, “Do you know why I wanted you to be my date?” Liang Xinwei shook her head. “My mom and dad really do want me to marry Ye Xiaoyi. However, I don’t like her, I like…” “Weiwei!” Ye Chenyun came running over and interrupted Fang Yuchen. “Big Brother Ye, why are you here?” Liang Xinwei looked at Ye Chenyun in surprise. “I’ve explained everything to my parents, let’s go over now.” As soon as he said that, he reached out to take her hand. Seeing this, Fang Yuchen put forward his lanky leg and stood in front of Liang Xinwei, looking coldly at him, “You cannot bring her with you.” Ye Chenyun smiled, “Why can’t I bring her with me? She’s my girlfriend.” Ye Chenyun frowned and turned to look at Liang Xinwei and asked, “Are you his girlfriend?” LIang Xinwei looked at Ye Chenyun and clenched her han
Mr. Ye was stumped, perhaps because he did not imagine that Fang Yuchen would be that direct. “Yuchen, is this the way you treat your elders?” Fang Teng rebuked him. “Dad,” Fang Yuchen turned and looked at him in exasperation, “I really don’t like Xiaoyi, can you please not try to get us together?” “Since you think Xiaoyi is good, why don’t you try and see, perhaps you might like her.” Fang Teng insisted on pairing them together. “Impossible.” Fang Yuchen’s tone was very calm. “Old Fang, it would seem that we’ve gotten ahead of ourselves.” Mr. Ye’s tone of voice was not as friendly as it used to be. He glared at Fang Yuchen, the displeasure clear on his face. Their dear, beloved daughter was desirable to so many eligible bachelors, but that brat Fang Yuchen had rejected her! That was too insensitive! “Old Ye, don’t say that. The kid’s not got his head screwed on straight.” Fang Teng hurriedly said to smooth things over. He had such a humble attitude not because the Fa
The situation was a little tense. Liang Xinwei clenched her little fists before she immediately relaxed them. She forcefully pushed Fang Yuchen’s hand away, “Mr. Fang, I’m sorry, I cannot help you.” As soon as she said that, she walked over to Ye Chenyun’s side and looked up at him with a smile, “Chenyun and I’s relationship is very stable. Therefore I apologize, but I cannot help you with this.” Ye Chenyun frowned, his eyes full of confusion, what was she doing? “Weiwei.” Fang Yuchen reached out to try and grab her, but she stepped away. She turned, her eyes glinting coldly and her tone of voice calm, “Mr. Fang, I understand you want to resist your parents’ arranged marriage, but I hope that you can handle this the correct way, and not through deceit. In any case, because of a lie you’ll need to cover it up with countless lies.” Fang Yuchen laughed in frustration, “Weiwei, do you know what you’re talking about?” Liang Xinwei ignored him, and turned to say to Ye Chenyun,
