Chapter 41 Stupid Gu Yechen
Chapter 41 Stupid Gu Yechen
Late at night, Gu Yechen silently entered He Xinyan's room like the days before and crawled onto her bed. This time, she didn't wake up from the movement and continued to sleep.
However, she did instinctively turn around on the bed and grab onto the edge of Gu Yechen's silk shirt. She wiggled closer to him and rested her head against his chest. With a satisfied smile, she continued to sleep.

The next morning, He Xinyan woke up and saw an empty space next to her. It was still early and usually at this time, Gu Yechen would still be here.
She sat up on the bed and blinked her eyes a few times. Looking to her right, she noticed that there was no rose either.
'Did he forget to come?' He Xinyan frowned and sank back down onto the bed, covering her head with the blanket.
She pursed her lips together angrily and rolled around on the bed, muttering, "Stupid Gu Yechen. . . Annoying Gu Yechen. . . I'm never going to talk to him ever again!"
He Xinyan got out of her bed and marched over to the glass sliding door. She angrily pushed the door open and was about to step onto the balcony when she suddenly froze and shrieked in surprise.
The balcony floor was covered with fresh roses, and there wasn't even any room for her to walk. This time, Gu Yechen didn't only bring red roses, and instead used a romantic trio of red, pink, and white roses. The colors were quite flashy amongst the green trees, but it was also very attractive and sweet.
He Xinyan bent down to pick up a white rose and gently sniffed it.
'How did he even manage to get all of these up here?' There must be at least a hundred roses piled on her balcony floor, and even her couch and the small table were all buried under flowers.
The crisp morning air was filled with a pleasant floral scent and it lifted He Xinyan's mood as she grabbed a handful of roses and happily walked back into her room, muttering, "Handsome Gu Yechen. . . Amazing Gu Yechen. . . Gu Yechen is the best person in the world!"
She filled the glass vase up with water and arranged the flowers in a beautiful way before entering the restroom to wash up.
After changing into some casual clothing, He Xinyan skipped down the stairs with a cheerful smile on her face.
"Good morning, dad!"
It was a Saturday, so Bai Jiawei didn't have to go to work today. He noticed that his daughter was unusually happy this morning, which made him smile too, "You seem very happy this morning. What happened?"
He Xinyan's smile grew bigger, "Nothing." He Xinyan carefully unfolded the napkin and gently placed it onto her lap, "I just met an amazing human being and I think I'm very lucky!"
"Oh," Bai Jiawei stopped eating as an amused smile appeared on his face, "Who is this lucky person to earn my daughter's favor?"
It seemed like Bai Jiawei had completely forgotten about Gu Yechen and his daughter now, which was a good thing for He Xinyan.
"He's handsome, tall, and kind. . . Well, only to me!" He Xinyan munched on a steamed bun happily and her cheeks puffed out like a cute little rabbit.
When she was happy, He Xinyan was the cutest and most pleasant person in the world. However, when he was angry, it seemed like she was able to change her appearance, as her face became the scariest and unpleasant in the world. . . maybe besides Gu Yechen.
Bai Jiawei was content to see his daughter happy and he nodded his head, "Bring him home sometime so I can meet him."
He Xinyan nodded her head but knew internally that she was definitely not going to let Gu Yechen meet her dad. He was her special weapon and support! How can she share it with others? Even her dad was a definite no-no.
When Li Huiran and Li Yuyan walked down, He Xinyan tried to maintain her good mood, but it was difficult with two annoying faces right in front of her.
As He Xinyan ate her second steamed bun, Li Yuyan suddenly turned to look at Bai Jiawei and cleared her throat.
"Dad, I won't be home for dinner tonight."
Bai Jiawei looked up from the newspaper a maid had just handed him, "Why? Where are you going?"
"Dad, I. . . I have a date with Su Zhiming." Li Yuyan nervously looked towards her mom, who nodded her head as encouragement.
Bai Jiawei sighed as his eyebrows furrowed together, "Why are you still with that guy?"
"Dad. . ." Li Yuyan pursed her lip out and walked over to Bai Jiawei, gently swinging his arm, "I like Su Zhiming. Plus, he isn't too bad. He comes from a decent middle-class family. Also, he was able to start a new project recently, and he says he is sure it will be successful. Give him a chance, dad. I promise he will work hard and help us beat the Qin Corporation!"
"Psh!" The water He Xinyan was drinking shot out of her mouth as she began coughing violently. Li Yuyan glared at He Xinyan and Bai Jiawei also looked up at He Xinyan weirdly.
The Qin Corporation was one of the He Corporation's greatest competitors and they rode on top of the He Corporation. They would steal the He Corporation's partners and deals, and it was one of the things that Bai Jiawei was very frustrated about.
He Xinyan stopped herself from laughing by pretending to cough. Su Zhiming?! Are you serious? In the past, Su Zhiming's entertainment company did grow to become very successful, and Bai Jiawei ended up also accepting Su Zhiming because of his success. However, beat the Qin Corporation? What a funny joke!
Li Yuyan was probably to say that if Su Zhiming ends up becoming successful, she would be able to beat Qin Ruolin. Qin Ruolin was the only daughter of the Qin family and was the same age as Li Yuyan. Although they were friends on the outside, He Xinyan knew that it was all fake and Li Yuyan couldn't wait to step over her and look down at her.
However, to Li Yuyan's disappointment, the Qin Corporation was stronger than the He Corporation, so Qin Ruolin was the one that had the ability to look down on Li Yuyan. Also, Qin Ruolin was the heir to the Qin Corporation, whereas the He Corporation had no connection whatsoever to Li Yuyan, who was an outsider.
So now, the only thing Li Yuyan still had an opportunity in was a good husband.
He Xinyan found it weird that Li Yuyan chose Su Zhiming and didn't try to reach higher for the sons of better families. Was it because Su Zhiming was better looking than most of them? Or did Li Yuyan somehow guess that Su Zhiming was going to become successful in the future? Or was it really just because she wanted to steal him from He Xinyan and it made her feel good?
Whatever it was, He Xinyan didn't really care. She had the best of the best. . . Gu! Ye! Chen!
He was the dream husband of practically every woman in the nation, and that was only for his wealth and power. The people didn't know what he looked like, but if they did, He Xinyan was certain that the women in Country Z would go crazy.
He Xinyan smiled happily to think that this wonderful man liked her! If only she also liked him back. . . He Xinyan wanted to stay true to herself, and as of now, she wasn't sure about her feelings towards him.
But she knew that if he kept up his amazing performance, her feelings would come quickly. And she wanted them to come quickly. . . She had to hurry up and hug onto this big thigh! The largest thigh in the entire country!
"Hahahaha!" He Xinyan smiled evilly as her brain wandered on and on, and she forgot that she was still at the dining table. Three heads immediately turned her way and she cleared her throat before standing up awkwardly.
"Um. . . I'm done with breakfast. I will go to my room now." He Xinyan quickly ran up the stairs and into her room before she continued to think happy thoughts on the bed.
