Chapter 34
He was wearing a custom-made black suit today, with simple but luxurious golden cufflinks on the cuffs. He looked noble, but his face was very indifferent and refined, as if he was not interested in anything.

Now, no matter how unhappy Yan Yuxi is in her heart, her face is restrained and clean, only a calm and polite smile remains.

But Gu Yiqin's eyes had been falling on her as if nothing had happened since she appeared.

That man's face was as cold as jade, but his eyes showed a kind of... interest?
It's like...looking at a funny cat.

What do you mean?
She held back her palpitations, walked over and sat down beside him, and Xu Rui greeted her.The three sat down and began to serve the food.

Yan Yuxi didn't drink, so she ordered a bottle of peach juice and deliberately took it farther away from the man, for fear that he would take it by mistake again.

Xu Rui's eyes were a bit speechless and tangled, as if he was shocked by her bold move.

It's so taboo. How dare she order it again?

Gu Yiqin didn't say anything, and there was even an inconspicuous smile on the corner of his lips, Xu Rui thought it was his own illusion.

The atmosphere was a little stagnant, Xu Rui coughed and said, "Ashley, congratulations on winning the first place in this China Cup design competition."

"Fortunately, Mr. Xu has cultivated me." Yan Xi smiled lightly. "Thanks to you and Mr. Gu for what happened this time."

Xu Rui immediately brought the topic to the main topic.

"You're welcome, Ashley. This is the business card of David, the founder of the "traces" brand. He has been trying to contact you through me. He probably wants to buy the copyright of the "golden laurel"."

Yan Xi took the business card and said, "Yes, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Xu."

Xu Rui said, "There is one more thing about this banquet. The other six products in the series that were unveiled in the competition were spotted by Gu, and he wanted to cooperate with Ms. Yan. The exposure this time is very high, and the commercial value is immeasurable. "

Xu Rui asked her out because he just wanted to be a favor.He didn't plan to share the cup of tea that Gu's favored.

In the shopping mall, Yan Ruixi didn't understand. In her previous life, she also understood a little bit under the influence of Gu Yiqin.

He, Gu Yiqin, was really clever at playing with people's hearts. With Xu Rui's face, it was impossible for her to refuse.

This person is always like this, his own momentum is not enough to suppress her, and he has to find someone.

At this time, the man who had always been the quietest finally spoke quietly, with a slight sense of oppression.

"Don't worry, Miss Yan, the profit share will definitely be considerable."

His slender fingers gracefully turned the red wine glass in his hand, and his gestures revealed a profound dignity.

Did not wait for her to answer.

He looked sideways at her, raised his glass in toast, and the curve of his lips seemed to be a smile, "So, happy cooperation?"

Yan Xi looked at him steadily for half a second.

This man is really tough and does not allow any room for rejection.

He is domineering at heart and is determined to win what he likes.

Auntie Yan restrained her emotions for a long time, and smiled faintly with her lowered eyes.

"Naturally, it's a pleasure to work with."

Gu Yiqin stared at her fair little face with a slight smile, her eyes becoming more and more unfathomable.

There is a certain degree of advance and retreat, so false.

With an unknown meaning, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and he drank the wine in the glass without saying a word.
-
At the end of the show, Aimee Yan walked out of "Yutan Pavilion" wearing a tight coat, and the night was getting dark.

The imperial capital is along the coast, and the four seasons are like spring. Even in the cold winter of January, there is no trace of snow.Only the frenzied wind blew the branches of the trees, and just as Auntie Yan was about to leave, the heavy rain like pearls and jade poured down.

Just when she was about to call a ride-hailing service, a hint of crisp pine and sandalwood suddenly came from behind her, which became clearer in the rain-soaked and humid air.

Her back straightened subconsciously, and her body tensed up with vigilance.

"give you?"

The words behind him were simple, and it was the man's usual cold and sloppy tone.

She turned sideways to refuse, when a black business car drove over, and the driver in a black suit got out of the car and came over to hold an umbrella for Gu Yiqin.

However, Gu Yiqin took the umbrella and asked the driver to stand under the eaves. He opened the back seat door himself and glanced at Yan Yuxi, his intention was clear.

This man was clearly "inviting" people to get in the car, his posture was elegant, he could even be called a gentleman, but he showed a casual dignity.

The handle of the umbrella made of dark mahogany is exquisitely carved, and his hands look like jade. Against the background of the rainy night, he looks like a nobleman coming out of an ancient painting.

Yan Yuxi's scalp is numb.

How could he be so abnormal.

She looked at him, Gu Yiqin's eyes were deep and deep, unable to discern any meaning.She paused and had to get into the car.

After a while, the driver drove the car into the night.

In the closed back seat, the man's body was covered with icy dampness and his unique scent of clean pine sandalwood, making him dangerous and unpredictable.

He casually straightened the cuffs of his suit meticulously and spoke calmly.

"Still so afraid of me?"

"."

She simply didn't know how to answer this.

what happened?Why did Gu Yiqin start to look a little... not quite right?He had obviously known such a question for a long time, so why did he ask it repeatedly?But shouldn't he be completely indifferent to her attitude towards him?
Such omens made her uneasy.

It seemed that ever since that day's game, he had become so abnormal, as if he had to make her feel embarrassed every time before giving up.

Who dares to believe, this is the Gu family's young master who is called by the world to be quiet-tempered, self-denying and cautious.

Bad taste.

"President Gu is joking." She answered dryly, with a polite smile that forced her composure into a smile.

Gu Yiqin didn't speak, his eyes fell on the smile on her face, and stared at her for a moment.

As time passed, the man's gaze became more and more wanton, and she could hardly hold back the smile on her face.

"Mr. Gu, is there something on my face?" She couldn't help but ask.

"No, I just thought Miss Yan surprised me."

His tone of voice was the same as usual, but it was very meaningful.The sentence "very pleasantly surprised" made her feel uneasy and terrified.

It seemed to mean something, but she couldn't figure it out.

Is he talking about that game?
Seeing her sitting awkwardly and defensively, Gu Yiqin's eyes were indifferent, but he did not continue to say more, but changed the topic.

"Is there anything unusual about Gu Lingchen recently?"

Yan Yuxi paused after hearing this, and after thinking for a long time, she said, "His mood is stable, but..."

She hesitated and did not finish, but Gu Yiqin answered the words calmly.

"You're pretending to be me, aren't you?"

Yan Yuxi was stunned, then nodded slightly.

Gu Yiqin fell silent and looked sideways out of the car window with deep thoughts in his eyes.

The atmosphere became awkward and stagnant, and for a while the two of them looked out the window.Even though there was no communication, the air was filled with that person's pine and sandalwood scent that had nowhere to escape. It was cold and dangerous, like an airtight net, tightly binding her.

I can't help but think of my past life, and it's hard to let go.

Gu Yiqin seemed to sense the change in the airflow, and looked in her direction.The girl's figure is thin and petite, and the reflection of the car window reflects her clear and sad eyes.

There was a slight pain in the heart.

Gu Yiqin frowned slightly, staring down at his chest coldly, with deep and indistinguishable confusion in his eyes.

Are the emotions of another personality causing trouble?

After a long time, the car arrived at the apartment complex of Auntie Yan's house. She couldn't wait to get out of the car immediately, and waved her hand to say goodbye politely.

Gu Yiqin watched the girl's figure gradually disappear in the rearview mirror, and then looked away after a long while.
