124 Second Master’s Pursuit Plan

When Xiang Yin returned to the Xiang Family, Bai Yun and Cui Lin were leisurely swinging their legs on the sofa.

When she saw Xiang Yin, Bai Yun clicked her tongue and sighed. “Aiya, some people are finally enlightened. They gave her a house and personally cooked for her. I wonder how touched she is?”

When Xiang Yin heard this, he stopped in his tracks. He thought about it seriously, but Gu Man did not seem to be touched.

Hadn’t he made it obvious enough?

Cui Lin couldn’t help but say in surprise, “Could it be that Gu Man didn’t say anything?”

He knew from Xiang Yin’s expression that the outcome might not be satisfactory.

“She expressed her gratitude to Second Master,” Bai Yun added.

Cui Lin resisted the urge to laugh. He could imagine Xiang Yin’s expression at that time.

When he was done laughing, Cui Lin kindly suggested, “She’s only a high school student. It’s inevitable that she’s a bit dense in this aspect. When she goes to university, you can start your pursuit.”

Xiang Yin glanced at him but did not say anything. It was indeed not the right time to disturb Gu Man. He would talk about it when she got into Zhong Chu University.

At this moment, Gu Man, who was in the room, did not know that she had already been included in Xiang Yin’s plan to pursue her.

She was in an exceptionally good mood today. When she was showering, she even hummed a tune.

It seemed like today was the happiest day of her life.

When she first came, she looked at some information online and felt that the people of this country were crazily obsessed with houses. Now, she understood that this was the foundation of settling down and freedom.

Gu Man was happy, but someone in the Gu family was not.

When Gu Rou entered the house, her eyes were still red. She happened to bump into Qu Bei and Gu Yuan. Qu Bei asked worriedly, “What’s wrong?”

Gu Rou turned around and did not want to answer. Qu Bei recalled that she had sent Zhang Yue out just now, so something could only have happened between the two of them. She asked, “Did you quarrel with Zhang Yue?”

When Gu Rou heard Zhang Yue, she thought of his determined figure just now and tears fell again. She sobbed and said, “He was fierce to me.”

“Weren’t you fine when you went out? Why would he be fierce to you for no reason? I don’t think Zhang Yue is the kind of person who would be fierce to you.” Qu Bei’s face was full of suspicion.

“That’s right. We saw that Zhang Yue usually coaxed you. How could he be fierce to you?” Gu Yuan was also puzzled.

“We met Gu Man at the door.” At the mention of Gu Man, the sadness in Gu Rou’s heart turned into hatred.

“Gu Man?” Gu Yuan and Qu Bei looked at each other. When Gu Man returned just now, she went upstairs without a word as usual. They could not be bothered with her.

“What’s wrong with her? Tell us, you’re killing us.” Qu Bei was an impatient person. Seeing that Gu Rou stopped after talking about Gu Man, she couldn’t help but rush her.

Gu Rou sniffed and started to talk about the words she had made up. “We happened to see Gu Man being sent back by a luxury car. I asked her a few questions, but she didn’t say anything and even scolded me. Later on, she even said that she had found a better person and wanted to settle the verbal engagement that Old Master Zhang had left behind with Brother Yue. I was angry at her for insulting Brother Yue like this, so I was a little harsh with my words, but Brother Yue said that my words were too harsh and that I was pretending in the past.”

“This Gu Man is too detestable. I’ll go look for her and scold her. Otherwise, she’ll think that this family is afraid of her.”

Qu Bei was about to go upstairs when Gu Rou stopped her. “Mom, don’t be rash. If you argue now, you’ll only cause chaos at home. I’m fine. Zhang Yue is right. I was too anxious and my words were too harsh. I deserve it.”

Seeing Gu Rou cry again, Gu Yuan said earnestly, “You child, you’re just kind-hearted. Why do you care so much about a person like Gu Man? She’s sad to see you. She might be happy now.”

Qu Bei panicked and complained to Gu Yuan, “Look at you, you insist on bringing her back to the Gu family. Now, the Gu family can’t even have a moment of peace. It’s already not easy for me to manage this family, and now there’s a demon king-like person. I don’t want to live anymore.”

Gu Yuan was also angry at Qu Bei’s words. “What’s the point of saying these angry words? You know why I brought her back. Otherwise, the Gu family will always be new money and will never be able to get to be a prestigious family. It’s difficult for me to even buy a house in Dragon Mountain District now. Can’t you understand me?”

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Gu Rou quickly advised, “Stop talking. You have to calm down and think about what to do next. If this continues, we won’t have a solution.”

Gu Rou’s goal was to chase Gu Man out of the Gu family.
