Bang!
The car door closed. Liu Mingrui, wearing a long black dress with light makeup, walked gracefully towards the main hall with her alluring figure.
Due to the familiarity between the Liu and Gu families, the Gu family's bodyguards didn't stop her at all.
At this moment, in the main hall.
"Glug glug glug."
Gu Chenan finished the can of beer in his hand and reached for another bottle.
After opening it, he took another big gulp.
[Sigh, I've seen little sister Tang today, I should go find Mingrui tomorrow.]
[She probably doesn't know I'm back in Donghai. My sudden appearance tomorrow will surely give her a big surprise!]
"Drinking alone to drown your sorrows?"
Just as Gu Chenan was feeling smug, Liu Mingrui's voice came through.
Gu Chenan was startled and immediately turned to look, his eyes widening.
[Holy crap? Speak of the devil!]
"Mingrui, why are you here?"
Liu Mingrui gave Gu Chenan a side-eye, casually tossed her bag on the sofa, grabbed a bottle of beer, and sat down next to Gu Chenan.
"Am I not allowed to come?"
"No, no, of course you are." Gu Chenan raised his glass and said, "I was just feeling lonely, it's perfect that you're here."
"Hmph."
Liu Mingrui rolled her eyes: "As if you, the great young master Gu, could ever be without company? Can't Hoshino Kannon or Tang Yunjin keep you company?"
Gu Chenan was taken aback, then grinned and said, "Oh? Is Miss Liu jealous?"
Smack!
Liu Mingrui raised her hand and slapped Gu Chenan on the back: "I'm not jealous of anything."
Then she said seriously, "I just think it's not good for you to keep changing girlfriends all the time!"
"I'm not, little sister Tang is my..." Gu Chenan suddenly paused, then said teasingly, "By the way, even if I did change girlfriends often, it's none of your business, right?"
Liu Mingrui pursed her lips: "You're right, it's none of my business."
"Come on, let's drink." Gu Chenan raised his glass.
Seeing Gu Chenan's nonchalant attitude made Liu Mingrui even angrier.
Damn it, he didn't tell me he was back both times, and now that I've come to find him, he's so calm about it, not even a bit ashamed?
"Sigh, Gu Chenan, I don't understand if you're really stupid or just pretending. Don't you have anything you want to say to me?" Liu Mingrui frowned, looking annoyed.
Gu Chenan blinked: "Say... say what?"
[Hmm... Liu Mingrui is one of the female leads after all. I've gotten all the other female leads, it wouldn't be right not to get her too, would it?]
[For the sake of fairness, I should probably get her too.]
Hearing this, Liu Mingrui's cheeks immediately turned red, but then she felt angry and dissatisfied.
What does he mean by "for the sake of fairness"?
There are countless men pursuing me, Liu Mingrui, and you, Gu Chenan, say you want to get me just for the sake of fairness?
Am I so undesirable or so ugly that I can't get married? I never asked you to get me, what are you imagining in your head?
Ridiculous!
"You know what to say!" Liu Mingrui said irritably.
Seeing Liu Mingrui angry, Gu Chenan immediately dropped his casual attitude and sat up straight on the sofa.
He knew very well how violent this girl could be...
[Say what? Does she want to force me to confess?]
"Umm, Mingrui," Gu Chenan thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I've liked you since a long time ago."
"Go to hell!" Liu Mingrui rolled her eyes directly.
I don't want your confession if you're only doing it because you think it's fair, Gu Chenan.
"Huh?"
Gu Chenan was stunned.
[What's going on? Am I being presumptuous?]
[It shouldn't be like this. Does Liu Mingrui not like me?]
[Hmm... I suppose it's possible. They say it's hard to make a move on someone you're too familiar with. Liu Mingrui and I basically grew up together, maybe she really doesn't have those kinds of feelings for me.]
[Damn it, Liu Mingrui is so attractive, yet she doesn't have feelings for me? Shit!]
Hearing Gu Chenan's inner thoughts, Liu Mingrui's eyes were about to roll to the back of her head.
I don't like you?
How can you say such cold words with your 37-degree Celsius mouth?
If I didn't like you, why would I have been jealous of Su Qianmo for so long?
Your brain seems to work just fine when you're flirting with other girls, so why does it seem like you've had a decade-long stroke when it comes to me?
"Mingrui, then what should I say?"
After pondering for a while without finding an answer, Gu Chenan scratched his head and asked, confused.
Liu Mingrui was speechless.
She pointed her finger angrily at Gu Chenan's nose.
"Damn you, Gu Chenan, what do you mean by not telling me every time you come back? Are you avoiding me?"
Hearing this, Gu Chenan's expression quickly changed from bewilderment to suppressed laughter, and finally, unable to hold it back, he put his hand on Liu Mingrui's shoulder, patting and laughing.
"Hahaha, so this is why you came?"
Liu Mingrui brushed Gu Chenan's hand away: "What, am I not supposed to come for this?"
"No, no," Gu Chenan shook his head, "I had plans, you know? I was going to find you tomorrow, really."
This made Liu Mingrui even angrier.
I'm your childhood friend after all, but you put me after seeing Tang Yunjin.
What, am I less important to you than Tang Yunjin?
Liu Mingrui's hand holding the beer can tightened slightly.
"Hmph!"
She snorted coldly, then raised the beer and took a big gulp.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
"You mean instead of talking, we should... do something?"
Gu Chenan's face drew closer, slightly tipsy with flushed cheeks and a dreamy look in his eyes. His breath carried a faint scent of hops.
Liu Mingrui was mesmerized, her gaze involuntarily drawn to Gu Chenan's chest muscles through the collar of his shirt.
"Gulp."
She swallowed hard, looking up to meet Gu Chenan's eyes.
However, the next second.
"Get lost!"
Liu Mingrui pushed Gu Chenan away.
"Hahaha."
Gu Chenan picked up his beer, revealing a smile of successful mischief.
Liu Mingrui gave him a side-eye: "You're crazy..."
Gu Chenan took a sip of beer and looked at Liu Mingrui, whose cheeks were already flushed: "Did you drive here tonight?"
"Yeah, why?" Liu Mingrui asked.
Gu Chenan pointed at the beer in Liu Mingrui's hand: "Don't drink and drive."
Liu Mingrui waved her hand: "It's fine, I can just have my bodyguard come pick me up."
Saying this, Liu Mingrui raised her beer and took another big gulp.
Gu Chenan nodded, took a sip of beer, and hesitantly said: "Why don't you... stay here tonight?"
"Pfft!"
Liu Mingrui spat out a mouthful of beer.
"You, Gu Chenan, can't sleep without a girl to keep you company, huh? Now you're setting your sights on me!"
Gu Chenan: ?
"How many times did we sleep together when we were kids? Why are you being shy now?"
"Besides, I said you could stay here, I didn't say you had to sleep with me. Don't get any weird ideas!"
