Chapter 16 Not So Simple
"Brother Yan! I..." Mu Wanyuan had never been treated so harshly by Xiao Yan before, her little face turned pale from fright, she tried to explain, but she stuttered for a long time before she could speak.

Gu Xi tugged at Xiao Yan's sleeve: "Everything is fine, let's go back."

After all, this is a public place, and she doesn't want to make a big fuss. If it spreads again, it will end badly for both of them.

She tried hard to persuade Xiao Yan to leave, but Mu Wanyuan refused to agree: "Brother Yan, you promised me that you would date me today."

Gu Xi sighed secretly, this is really a young lady, she can't even read the atmosphere, it can be seen how much the family usually spoils her.

She looked up at Xiao Yan: "Miss Mu should have something to tell you, I still have something to do, so first..."

Mu Wanyuan is ignorant, so she can only find a way out for herself.

She said that she wanted to get out of Xiao Yan's arms, but he refused to let go: "You stay, originally I went to school to pick you up, but someone took me one step ahead."

Gu Xi was stunned for a moment, did he pick her up from school?Then he rushed here ahead of time, did he come because he knew she had been brought here?
The movement here has attracted some people's attention, seeing that there are more and more people watching, Xiao Yan directly led her into the room, and closed the door smoothly.

"Did you get burned?" Xiao Yan led her to sit on the sofa, bent down, trying to lift her skirt to see if she was hurt.

Gu Xi was startled and hurriedly patted his hand away: "There is an outsider here."

Her natural words made Mu Wanyuan's eyes turn red: "Stop provoking hypocrisy there! I'm not an outsider."

Gu Xi looked up at her, pursed his lips and didn't say anything more.

"Miss Mu, you'd better watch your words and deeds." Xiao Yan looked stern, "She is my wife."

"I won't admit her!" Mu Wanyuan bit her lip and said, "Brother Yan, you were supposed to be engaged to me!"

Xiao Yan seemed to be too lazy to pay attention to her, and directly reached out to Gu Xi: "Where is the recording that was made before?"

Gu Xi clenched his bag tightly, and said with a smile, "Actually, I didn't say anything, it's all between women..."

"Be obedient, give it to me." Xiao Yan's tone was indifferent, but Gu Xi could see that his expression was firm, so he had no choice but to take out the phone and call up the recording file.

Gu Xi has already started recording since he entered Room [-], including the few words He Yan said before.

Hearing Mu Wanyuan say that Gu Xi is an inferior person, Xiao Yan took a cigarette out of the cigarette case.He glanced at Gu Xi, but he didn't light the cigarette, he just held it between his fingers.

After casually listening to Mu Wanyuan's last self-introduction, he twisted the cigarette in the ashtray and handed the phone back to Gu Xi.

When Gu Xi reached out to pick up the phone, his hand fell on the top of her head and gently rubbed her hair.

She wasn't used to his actions like this, and it was hard to dodge in front of Mu Wanyuan, her body froze.

"You..." She was about to say something when Xiao Yan suddenly took her hand and stood up.

Seeing Xiao Yan like this, Mu Wanyuan couldn't help panicking, she rushed over and hugged Xiao Yan's arm: "Brother Yan..."

Xiao Yan mercilessly shook off her hand.

"Go back and tell your father that in the future I will take this recording and visit the door in person." After saying this, he took Gu Xi out the door, and despite Mu Wanyuan crying behind him, he didn't even turn his head.

After leaving the waterside pavilion, Xiao Yan took the car keys from the driver, sat in the driver's seat, and gestured to Gu Xi for her to get in the car.

Gu Xi originally wanted to sit in the back, but he took her by the hand to let her sit on the passenger seat, and fastened her seat belt smoothly.

"Where are we going?" Gu Xi always felt that there was something wrong with Xiao Yan's current mood.

Xiao Yan started the car and drove to the main road: "Take you to dinner."

Gu Xi thought that Xiao Yan said that he had picked her up from school, so did he just want to pick her up for dinner?But didn't Mu Wanyuan say that she and Xiao Yan made an appointment to meet at six o'clock?

For a moment she couldn't figure out what was going on.

Xiao Yan drove very steadily, but the speed was too fast. It seemed that Gu Xi was scruples. He unconsciously increased the speed a few times and then immediately suppressed it.

"Today's matter, I should tell you first." Gu Xi thought for a long time, feeling that he might be angry, so he explained, "I feel that this kind of trivial matter should not bother you, I can handle it myself."

"Rely on that recording?" Xiao Yan's tone could not detect any emotion.

Gu Xi nodded: "Although it's a trick you don't like, it should be enough to deal with Mu Wanyuan."

Xiao Yan glanced at her sideways, and remained silent for a while before continuing: "Mu Wanyuan is still young, so you might be intimidated by you for a while. But she is also from the Mu family after all, not as innocent as you think."

The car turned a corner at the intersection in front of him, and the streetlights shone on his face, and his side face looked extremely cold: "The glass of drugged wine I drank that day was brought to me by herself."

Gu Xi was stunned for a moment, and when he realized it, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock: "She gave you medicine? Could it be..."

A woman actually took the initiative to drug a man!Gu Xi couldn't imagine this!
"The Mu family is glamorous on the surface, but in fact, most of them have collapsed internally. If we can marry the Xiao family, it will undoubtedly be the best solution to the economic problem."

Xiao Yan's tone was full of disdain: "The police happened to be one step ahead of her that day, otherwise the news headlines would not be that I was reported, but that the Xiao family and the Mu family were married."

Gu Xi couldn't help taking a breath.

Whether it's out of consideration for the Mu family, or because she really likes Xiao Yan and wants to be with him, it's really too much for Mu Wanyuan to use such low-level tricks to plot people.

I went to see her with only a mobile phone before, but now that I think about it, I am terribly afraid, what if she also tampers with the coffee cup...

Just thinking about that possibility sent a chill down her spine.

It's easy to hide an open gun, but it's hard to defend against a hidden arrow, not to mention that the opponent is still the kind who will do anything for the purpose.

Xiao Yan was right, she really thought of Mu Wanyuan too simply.

"I'll pay attention to it in the future." Gu Xi said this sentence with extra solemnity, she was really scared to the point where she lost her memory completely.

Xiao Yan glanced at her sideways, and stretched out a hand to cover the back of her hand: "From now on, let me handle this kind of matter directly, I don't want you to have an accident."

Gu Xi nodded, and suddenly realized: "Mu Wanyuan said that she made an appointment with you to meet at the waterside flower bank, so you are going to have a showdown with her."

"Yeah." Just at the entrance of the restaurant, Xiao Yan parked the car and took her out of the car: "I didn't expect you to be involved."

Gu Xi lowered her head, feeling quite self-blaming. If she hadn't been so assertive and told Xiao Yan before going, there wouldn't be so much trouble.

Seeing her annoyed and remorseful look, Xiao Yan's eyes moved slightly, and he reached out to hold her hand: "You did a good job today."

Gu Xi only felt more depressed, this kind of comfort was just a cliché!
"Really." Xiao Yan's tone was serious, when Gu Xi looked up at him in surprise, he smiled lightly and said, "I'm very happy that you were not threatened by her and bought by her."
