Chapter 8 Rejection
After Gu Lingchen's sudden appearance that night, Yan Yuxi hadn't seen this person for a while.Like a shallow ripple appearing out of thin air, she is well aware of the turbulent crisis hidden under the calm lake.

If Gu Yiqin is Yan Yuxi's shackles, then Gu Lingchen is her catastrophe.

The luck and misfortune of half a life are all caused by these two people.No, from a certain point of view, they are the same person.

In his previous life, Gu Lingchen fell in love with her at first sight and started a crazy entanglement with her.The love of a young man is hot and deep, but it burns everything regardless of the consequences.

In this life, the gears of fate may have turned irresistibly, but perhaps the difference from the previous life is that Gu Yiqin has not yet set his sights on her.

Maybe, it's not too bad.

The girl was full of thoughts, and the pen and ink on her fingertips unconsciously made a deep mark on the design draft. When she came to her senses, she found that the paper had been crumpled by herself and thrown into the trash can nearby.

This is the manuscript she prepared to participate in the recent "James Fabric" Cup Fashion Creative Design Competition. She won No. 2 in her last life. In this life, she is confident that she can still get the ranking without using inspiration from her previous life.

It was getting late, and after putting away all the drafts, Auntie Yan was about to leave the rooftop, but when she turned her head, she saw a familiar figure standing quietly not far away, silently looking at her.

"." Her hands trembled uncontrollably.

Why do you look like a ghost?Why does this person appear here?
Facing the faint sunlight, Xu wanted to distinguish the personality of the person in front of her. The girl's eyes lightly inspected the man's face, and after seeing the cold and calm expression between the noble man's brows, she had the answer in her heart.

Gu Yiqin looked at the girl silently. He had been standing behind her for 2 minutes. Originally, he no longer needed to intervene in the affairs here, but there seemed to be a strange desire in his heart that made him come to University A.

He knew that "he" had gone to University A after he appeared, so he wanted to find out what "he" did here.

She didn't expect that the rooftop where she wanted to meditate in college was actually the "territory" she frequented.

The girl just looked at him for a second and then lowered her head, looking timid and at a loss.

"Hello, Mr. Gu."

Even his voice was soft, like a cat's.

"Yeah." He responded in a low voice.For some reason, he suddenly felt a little thirsty.

The weird impulse in his heart invaded again, as if something was split into independent emotions in his chest. He was convinced that that hot feeling could not belong to him.

The man pursed his thin lips, and his indifferent brows showed that he was becoming more and more affectionate and indifferent.

The girl lowered her head and stood not far from her, looking dull and dull, except for that beautiful face, it was impossible to find anything special.

But he has a talent that makes him admire him.

"What's your name?" After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked.

Yan Yuxi felt a little relaxed after hearing this. He had met her several times, but he didn't remember her name, which meant that he was not interested in her at all.

Facing the probing gaze, not knowing what the man meant, Yan Xi squeezed her wet palms and answered softly.

"Yan Aixi."

"You are very talented in design." Gu Yiqin's tone was lukewarm.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Unable to figure out his intentions, Auntie Yan's whole body was glowing like needles. She dealt with him cautiously, feeling very nervous.

"Are you interested in being the chief designer of Gu's Group?"

He rubbed the turbo of the lighter in his palm, lit a cigarette, and spoke in a calm and unhurried tone.

Yan Xi was stunned.

She seemed a little surprised, because in her last life, this didn't happen at all.

The Prada International Painting Competition at the age of 19 was her last work presented to the world.

She remembered that it was a moment of kindness from him to her.He allowed her to prove herself, but he would never allow her to study abroad, let alone escape from his clutches.

Later, maybe a month before she committed suicide.He suddenly said that he would help her realize her dream. He was going to use a large sum of money to create her own brand for her. She only needed to provide the design drawings, and he could make such a brand active in the market.He also said that he would hold an art exhibition for her.

But she refused.

She disdained to live under what he thought was his wing. She knew very well that it was like a sweet date dipped in poison, and it didn't really belong to her.

What's more, if freedom is gone, there's no point in dreaming.

Recalling this, she suddenly realized that the man was still staring at her, with a bit of inquiry in his eyes.After the smoke wrapped around him, his eyes were cold and blurry.

She bit the tip of her tongue and replied in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, I have no intention of doing this for the time being. Now I just want to study hard."

"After thinking about it, it's never too late to refuse. Mrs. Gu can guarantee that your design will be recognized by the world." After being rejected, Gu Yiqin's eyes flashed a gloomy look, as if he couldn't figure out why she refused.

Who wouldn't want to cooperate with Gu? Yan Yuxi is very sure that he has the capital to popularize her works. Her design coupled with Gu's market influence is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity.

But she decided that it was impossible for her to have anything to do with him in this life.

"Sorry, Mr. Gu." She said with a lowered eyebrow.The tone was distant and polite, but Gu Yiqin instantly narrowed his eyes.

Looking at her dull expression with lowered eyebrows, he felt inexplicably depressed.His fingers loosened his tie, and his eyes flashed sharply.

"Miss Yan, are you afraid of me?" The man's cold eyebrows slightly raised, a hint of evil and sycophancy suddenly appeared, but his voice was still extremely cold, "Or are you avoiding me?"

Her heart sank when she heard the man's sudden cold inquiry, which clearly contained no questioning tone.

She subconsciously raised her head and glanced at him, seeing the man's sharp clear eyes and the sinister frown between his brows, her heart skipped a beat.

Such an expression is very similar to Gu Lingchen.In a sense, they really are one person.Very similar is also normal.

Her body stiffened for a moment, and this moment did not escape the man's eyes.

Gu Yiqin just said it casually, but it was true.This was his intuition, but it was confirmed at this moment.

Yes.Gu Yiqin finally understood what the strange feeling in his heart meant. It was that she was afraid of him and even wanted to avoid him.

She looked pale when they met on the rooftop last time. She was not surprised at his appearance at all, but was afraid.

But they obviously don't know each other.But it would make sense if that first encounter frightened her.

The man glanced at her indifferently, catching a glimpse of her eyelashes that suddenly trembled sharply, with a pale and cautious look on her face, which inexplicably made her feel very eye-catching.

Down-hearted.

"You have a lot of time to think about it. You can contact me when you're done thinking about it." His voice calmed down, and he stretched out his hand to her suddenly, making her face turn pale when she was still in deep thought.

As if he didn't hear anything, he quickly took out the pen from her hand, raised his hand and wrote a series of numbers on the blank white paper in her hand.

Then she handed the pen to her without saying a word, she subconsciously caught it, and when she raised her eyes again, she could only see the cold back of the man leaving without hesitation.

In an instant, she gradually came back to her senses, only feeling that it was a false alarm.She caught the shallow coldness that flashed in the man's eyes just now.

Maybe if you follow him and don't resist him, you won't attract his attention.Especially her timid appearance, he seemed very disgusted.

Squeezing the pen in her hand, which seemed to still retain the warmth and breath of the man's hand, she threw the pen into her backpack like a hot potato.

After getting off the teaching building, she pursed her lips again, looked at the trash can on the side of the road, and thought of something, she took out the pen used by the man from her backpack, and the pen with the number left by the man The papers were thrown into the trash can together.

After throwing it away, she seemed a little relieved, she raised her eyebrows wantonly, turned her head and left gracefully.

But she didn't realize that behind a big and thick tree not far away, a proud figure of Youdao was casually lowering his head and smoking a cigarette. Everything the girl had done was smashed through.

At dusk, the halo left a shallow shadow in the man's pupils, and the dark ink stained with a touching amber color, like unparalleled glass beads, but it was condensed with a cold feeling.

He put one hand indifferently into his pocket, and with the other hand he threw a third of the cigarette in his hand into the trash can. Then he glanced at the girl's almost disappearing back, and after a while he chuckled softly.

Elegantly flicking away the non-existent dust on the hem of his bullet jacket, the man turned around and left with an indifferent look on his face.
