“I’m sure everyone’s curious about the man and woman who stepped in to help in the video. This man is twenty-six this year, single, from Longhai, and works in the Security Department of the Gu Group. As for this girl, her name is Xiao Luan, a famous dancer—I’m sure you’ve all heard of her. She’s also the eldest princess of the renowned Xiao Group.”
Oh dear, Luan’er got exposed. How unfortunate.
Things weren’t much better for herself either—even her workplace was known. Would she have to wear a mask to work from now on?
After all, she was this handsome—she’d cause girls to mob her like crazy.
But the problem was, she wasn’t even herself right now. She couldn’t enjoy any of this vanity at all. Forget it, forget it.
She had Luan’er and Yun’er now. That should be enough to be content with.
Now came the difficult choice again—who should she pick as a girlfriend? It was truly a tough decision. If only it were ancient times—then why bother choosing at all?
She checked the comment section.
“No wonder this handsome guy can fight so well—turns out he’s from the Gu Group’s security.”
“This girl is actually this badass and I didn’t even know? Gotta go follow her right now.”
“Could this be another story of a bodyguard and a young lady?”
Yu Xiaoduo couldn’t help but laugh. Cliché, but somehow it seemed interesting.
Gu Wan’er’s phone rang while she was chopping vegetables. It was Zhao Liang.
“Hello.”
“Brother Yu, you’re famous! Damn! Quick, check the videos—you’ve become a hero.” Zhao Liang’s excited voice came through the phone, as if he were the hero himself.
Gu Wan’er was confused. How had she become a hero? She hung up and opened the videos to scroll through, and sure enough, she found it.
“We’re in a video.” Gu Wan’er held her phone out toward Xiao Luan.
Xiao Luan turned down the heat, and the two of them stared at the video together, both wearing expressions of surprise. It was just helping someone out—how had it blown up this much?
Yu Xiaoduo trotted over at that moment too, shouting, “Quick, check the video—you two are famous!”
“We already know.” Xiao Luan turned around and smiled helplessly. Just as she said that, her own phone rang. Unexpectedly, it was Xiao Yu calling.
Xiao Luan didn’t avoid them and answered directly.
“Brother, what’s up?”
“Impressive, my little sister—you’ve become a heroine.”
“Not really. I just stepped in to help.”
“Well done. You’ve brought honor to the Xiao family.” Xiao Yu had been a bit disbelieving when he first saw the video, but after confirming repeatedly, he was sure it was his sister. But how could that man be Gu Wan’er’s boyfriend? Some people online were saying his sister and that Yu Xiaoduo were a couple—what nonsense.
“By the way, did you find out for me?”
Xiao Luan let out a soft sigh. So this was your real reason for calling.
“I found out. You’d better give up. They’re a real couple—they’ve even slept together.”
Yu Xiaoduo and Gu Wan’er were instantly stunned. Your talent for making things up isn’t bad either. If you keep acting like this, we won’t be able to clear our names even if we jump into the Yellow River.
Sure enough, after those words, Xiao Yu fell silent. After a long while, he said dejectedly, “I see.”
Xiao Luan could tell her brother was a bit sad, but she said, “Don’t be discouraged. There are so many girls in this world. I’ll find you someone better.”
“I only want her.”
Xiao Luan nearly cracked. This guy just wouldn’t give up. “I saw them doing it in the room with my own eyes yesterday. Unlike you, still hung up on her.”
The two people nearby exchanged glances. So they’d already been doing it in her imagination. Gu Wan’er had become numb to the word “innocence.”
“You could see that too?” Xiao Yu asked, puzzled.
“Because they kept me up all night.”
Yu Xiaoduo thought Xiao Luan’s words were quite reasonable. With his absolute prowess, wouldn’t it be like a pig being slaughtered—screaming and all? Gu Wan’er beside him somewhat agreed. She wondered what Yu Xiaoduo had eaten growing up.
Xiao Yu fell silent again after hearing this. He’d apparently suffered a double blow, his heart utterly dead. He said nothing more and hung up.
Yu Xiaoduo felt that Xiao Luan’s brother was a bit pitiful, but this time she had to side with Xiao Luan. After all, if Gu Wan’er really got married, then when she possessed her body, it would be two grown men on their wedding night. Just thinking about it made her whole body tingle.
“Done.” Xiao Luan turned off her phone. Her brother had finally given up. When she saw the strange expression on Gu Wan’er’s face, she thought her earlier words had hurt her.
“Wan’er, don’t worry. My brother won’t say anything reckless.”
Yu Xiaoduo hugged Xiao Luan after hearing this. “It’s fine. As long as it helps you.”
“Wan’er, thank you. Don’t worry—if I find a good guy in the future, I’ll introduce him to you right away.”
“This is what they call give and take, right, Yu Xiaoduo?” Yu Xiaoduo looked at Gu Wan’er teasingly. She was really curious what Gu Wan’er was thinking right now—making her chase after her own best friend. What a hilarious situation this had become.
Xiao Luan glanced at Yu Xiaoduo and said lightly, “Since you put it that way, Wan’er, I’ll give him a chance.”
Gu Wan’er watched Yu Xiaoduo and her best friend playing off each other and was speechless. She didn’t know what to say, so she just smiled.
After the laughter, Gu Wan’er carried the dishes Xiao Luan had cooked to the table—three dishes and a soup, beautifully plated. Just from the aroma, you could tell she was a good cook too. She was on par with Yun’er in this regard—hard to choose.
“Luan’er’s cooking is as delicious as always.” Yu Xiaoduo praised generously after one bite. Xiao Luan was in a great mood, smiling from ear to ear.
Gu Wan’er could only sigh inwardly. She finally understood how Sister Bai had gradually been “taken down” by him. You could see a bit of it from Xiao Luan—some words, when spoken with your own mouth, could have maximum effect.
“Don’t just eat rice—have some meat. I’m not some terrifying beast.” In a good mood, Xiao Luan picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Gu Wan’er’s bowl.
Yu Xiaoduo was a bit surprised. She actually served her food.
Gu Wan’er was also startled. From what she remembered, besides serving food to her brother, she’d never seen her serve food to any other man. What was going on today?
“Thank you, Miss Xiao.” Gu Wan’er said with a smile.
Xiao Luan teased with a coquettish laugh and suddenly asked, “Yu Xiaoduo, what kind of girl do you like?”
This question caught Gu Wan’er off guard. She actually asked something like that.
Adjusting her emotions, Gu Wan’er smiled and said, “I like girls who can cook.”
Yu Xiaoduo thought Gu Wan’er was about to start her mischief mode, but unexpectedly, she actually knew how to play along.
Xiao Luan smiled without speaking. Gu Wan’er asked in return, “What kind of guy does Miss Xiao like?” Actually, she wanted to know too.
Xiao Luan tapped her chin and said, “Hmm… a guy doesn’t need to be too handsome, but he has to have masculine charm and be able to keep me in check. Money doesn’t matter—I have plenty anyway.”
Yu Xiaoduo liked that last part, but she liked the middle part even more. I can definitely keep you in check.
