“Li Wen.”

When Chu An heard the name that came out of Gu Xiao’s mouth, he didn’t react for a moment.

Although he was born in the Chu Family, he didn’t know much about the aristocratic families. Moreover, the Li Family was nothing compared to the Chu Family.

Chu An didn’t have a deep impression of the Li family, so he had even less of an impression of Li Wen. In the end, he only reacted after Gu Xiao’s hint.

“The heir of the Li family?”

Gu Xiao gave a soft “Mm” and walked towards the bed while listening to Chu An. She then sat down on the edge of the bed and relaxed a little.

“Why did the heir of the Li family go to the Ji residence?” There was a hint of doubt in Chu An’s voice, but he seemed to have come back to her senses. “Don’t tell me he went to the Ji residence for that Ji Yao?”

A hint of a smile flashed across her eyes when she heard Chu An’s belittling tone towards Ji Yao.

“Yes, it’s because of her.” Gu Xiao changed to a more relaxed posture. “Ji Yao and Li Wen have been dating for a few months. I’m afraid there’s no other solution, except for Ji Yao to bring Li Wen to the Ji residence this time.”

After all, the online condemnation of Ji Yao had not ended. Even Jiang He was wavering. How could Ji Yao not be anxious?

If she really followed Ji Gao’s instructions, there was no guarantee that Ji Yao would be able to live such a good life after she was sent away.

Ji Yao knew this very well. Naturally, she would not agree to leave the Ji family no matter what.

“I wonder what kind of taste Li Wen has to actually like Ji Yao.” There was a hint of doubt in Chu An’s voice.

Now that Ji Yao’s true colors had been completely exposed, Chu An couldn’t help but wonder if the heir of the Li family was stupid to be able to be with her under such circumstances.

In the future, the Li family would be handed over to such a person… He really felt despair for the Li family.

After Chu An finished talking about Li Wen, he threw him to the back of his mind. However, there was something else that caught his attention.

“If Ji Yao really stays, won’t she continue to find trouble with you, Xiaoxiao?” As Chu An spoke, he gripped his phone tightly and frowned.

Although he believed that Ji Yao could not hurt Xiaoxiao, it was really disgusting for a flea to keep jumping around in front of him.

To Chu An, Ji Yao was that disgusting flea.

“I find it even more interesting,” Gu Xiao said with a cold smile.

How could the humiliation that Ji Yao had brought her in her previous life be so easily forgotten? If Ji Yao really left, she would have a headache instead!

In her previous life, Ji Yao had stepped on her to reach the top, but she had fallen into mud and could not turn the situation around. In this life, she had a chance to start over, so how could she let her off so easily?

Chu An naturally understood Gu Xiao’s thoughts and didn’t feel that there was anything wrong. Instead, he supported her. “Xiaoxiao, if you need help, just let me know. I’ll always be by your side.”

Chu An’s words were soft and firm, and as long as Gu Xiao gave the order, he wouldn’t hesitate to go through fire and water for her.

Her eyes, which had turned cold because of Ji Yao, instantly melted like spring water after hearing Chu An’s words.

The corners of Gu Xiao’s lips curled up, and her expression became relaxed and bright. The feeling of having someone standing by her side unconditionally was really addictive.

The two of them talked a lot on the phone. In the end, Gu Xiao recalled that she hadn’t finished today’s test paper and forcefully hung up the phone. Otherwise, who knew how long Chu An would keep clinging onto her.

Gu Xiao did not stop after she was done. She continued to revise the knowledge in her books.

Although there was Chu An, she couldn’t be lazy.

Gu Xiao did not know how long she had been alone in the room. Suddenly, there was a knock on her door from outside, followed by the voice of a servant. “Miss Gu, it’s time to go down for dinner.”

Gu Xiao closed her book. “I got it. I’ll be right down.”

After receiving Gu Xiao’s reply, the servant did not stay and left quickly.

Gu Xiao tidied up the desk. When she thought of Li Wen, whom she had seen today, her eyes flashed and she suddenly became curious..
