Chapter 89: Are You Being Kept by Someone?
In the evening, just at the time of getting off work, Lin Yueer received a call from Yang Liu.
"Xiao Yue! We've arrived at your neighborhood!"
Lin Yue'er was taken aback, "How did you know where I live?" Her address was confidential, no one in the company knew, even the personnel department had her uncle's house on file.
"Haha, Zheng Yuhao said that the guy sent you home before!" The phone was immediately snatched away by Zhang Jiajia, who shouted loudly, "Little Yue sister, Zheng Shuai is still thinking of you until now, do you want to consider giving him a chance?"
Lin Yue'er was somewhat amused and annoyed, Yang Liu grabbed the phone back and said "What's with all this gossip at this hour?" She then said to Lin Yue'er, "Little Yue, come out and pick us up, we've got a lot of stuff and our arms are sore!"
"Oh. Wait for me!" Lin Yue'er changed her shoes and was about to go out, Gu Xi Cen sat in the living room, heard her talking on the phone, put down the book in her hand, "I'll go."
She waved her hand, "You don't know them, I'll go instead."
Gu Xi Cen didn't say anything and went straight out the door.
Used to his arbitrary actions, Lin Yue'er didn't mind and followed him out of the door.
Early autumn, the sky darkened early, two people walked one after another along the clean and tidy mountain road, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet.
Lin Yue'er tightened the small jacket on her body, wrapped her arms around herself, and felt the coolness of autumn. Afraid that she couldn't keep up, Gu Xi Chen slowed down his pace, seeing that she looked a bit cold, he directly took off the casual jacket on his body and threw it to her, "Put it on."
Seeing him wearing only a short-sleeved T-shirt inside, Lin Yue'er shook her head directly, "No way, you'll catch a cold, I'm not cold."
He glanced at her and said, "You'll catch a cold, I won't." After that, he continued walking down the road.
Knowing he was well-intentioned, but his somewhat arrogant tone still made her laugh.
He put on his jacket, which was a bit big for him, the hem covering his buttocks, and the sleeves had to be rolled up twice. But it was warm, and even retained his body heat.
Maybe it was the good evening air, Lin Yueer walked and enjoyed herself, her footsteps also unconsciously lightened, and soon she arrived at the foot of the mountain.
"Where are they?" Gu Xi Cen asked, looking around.
Lin Yue'er smiled awkwardly and pointed to an ordinary-looking residential area not far away, "It should be over there."
Gu Xi Cen raised an eyebrow, seemingly inquiring.
She had no choice but to confess, "Last time, a colleague sent me back, I lied to him and said I lived there..." Her voice grew smaller as she spoke. Lies are highly prolific, once you start with one, countless variations will emerge, requiring more lies to perfect them, then continuous variations, continuous perfection, thoroughly trapped in a vicious circle, hard to extricate oneself.
Lin Yue'er has tasted its bitterness and will never deceive anyone again, especially those close to her!
There were two people in front of them, and it was a road with cars coming and going. Gu Xi Cen glanced over there and said, "You wait here, I'll go pick them up."
Lin Yue'er responded with a sound and then stood still by the side of the road.
Soon, Gu Xi Cen appeared with them, carrying big and small bags that looked heavy but he was holding them lightly. Zhang Jia Jia had a lovesick expression, sticking close to him, asking nonstop, "Handsome guy, are you Xiao Yue's boyfriend? Younger brother? Neighbor? Little buddy?"
Gu Xi Cen was very calm and collected, seemingly oblivious, completely unbothered by her own problems.
Next to her, Yang Liu couldn't take it anymore and pulled her over, lowering her voice to warn, "Even if she is, you'll scare her away! If such a great catch runs away, are you going to be responsible? Do you want Xiaoyue to end up unmarried?"
Zhang Jiajia stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Can't help it, when I see a handsome guy, I just can't move my feet, born this way, born this way."
Yang Liu glared at her and turned around to see Lin Yue'er standing opposite her, "Little Yue!"
Zhang Jiajia was overjoyed too, "Little Yue sister!"
Seeing two good friends, Lin Yue'er happily waved her hand.
Two people ran over, Yang Liu pulled her and looked left and right, exclaiming, "Xiao Yue, you've lost weight again!"
"Really?" Lin Yue'er touched her cheek, "I think I've gained weight!"
Looking at Aunt Hua, drinking soup and tonic every day, how can she possibly lose weight?
Zhang Jiajia wrapped her arm around hers, resting her head on her shoulder in a coquettish manner, "Little Yue sister, I'm going to die without you! It's so boring when you're not here!"
"Are you trying to get Xiao Yue or are you trying to get Xiao Yue to clean up those messes for you?"
Zhang Jiajia smiled slyly, "I have them all~"
At this time, Gu Xi Cen walked over and said, "I'll go up first."
Lin Yue'er nodded, "Oh." Looking at him carrying such a large pile of things, he was really tired.
Gu Xi Zhen and Cao Zhong nodded slightly at each other, then walked straight up.
Staring at his perfect figure, Zhang Jiajia's saliva almost flowed out, and she asked directly, "Little Yue sister, who is he? He's really so handsome!"
"He is... " Lin Yue'er was momentarily speechless, and hadn't thought ahead about Gu Xi Cen's identity. Facing the two people's "must be having an affair" gaze, in her anxiety, she blurted out, "He is my distant cousin!"
As soon as the words fell, the person walking in front of him hesitated for a moment, but quickly returned to his normal pace.
"Cousin?" The two of them stared at her suspiciously.
"Uh-huh," Lin Yue'er nodded affirmatively.
She is one year older than Gu Xi Chen and nominally his elder sister-in-law, so it's only fitting to call him younger brother!
"Really?" Yang Liu was clearly skeptical, but Zhang Jiajia didn't think so much and pestered Lin Yue to introduce her to her younger brother.
Yang Liu directly pulled her over, "Girl, calm down! That prodigal son, one look and you can tell he's not from our village. Stop being infatuated! Let's go, I'm starving!"
Lin Yue let out a quiet sigh of relief and walked with them while chatting.
When they first saw the Gu family's villa, both of their mouths were wide open in shock, enough to stuff an egg into.
"Xiao Xiao Yue Jie, what generation of rich are you?!!"
Yang Liu was the first to regain her composure and directly pulled Lin Yue'er over. "Little Yue, be honest with me, are you being kept by someone?"
Lin Yueer's daily life is simple and unpretentious, without any signs of being a rich girl. The only explanation is that she has a sugar daddy! And the prime suspect is that man from just now!!
Without waiting for Lin Yue to explain, Zhang Jiajia hastily grabbed her hand and said, "Little Yue sister, go negotiate with the handsome guy and ask him to take me in too! I eat little and work a lot, I'm very easy to support!!"
Lin Yue rubbed her aching forehead and said with a mixture of tears and laughter, "I'm really not being kept by anyone!"
"Wow, this is a mansion! It's a luxurious villa with a price tag of millions per square meter! You're not being kept by someone, how can you afford to live here?!"
"I..."
Just then, the gate opened and Gu Xi Cen walked out, sweeping a glance at the three of them, saying calmly, "This is my home, and...my cousin is just temporarily staying here."
Lin Yue'er swore she heard the sound of him gritting his teeth.
