Chapter 437 The Beginning of Everything 28
Seeing Gu Yao's smug smile, Chen Zhao immediately stopped and pointed at Gu Yao with a accusing look, "See? This kid is definitely chatting with his girlfriend again, and doing it so mysteriously. She must be a super beauty. Since we've all seen her, why didn't you tell us?"
Chen Zhao looked heartbroken, clutching his chest as if he were about to collapse at any moment.
His face was filled with grief, and his voice was hoarse with anguish, “All these years of love and time have been wasted!”
Gu Yao's brow twitched, and after comforting Xie Gui for a couple more minutes, he looked up at Chen Zhao and smiled brightly, "Chen Zhao, are you itching for a beating? Do you want to be thrown again? I can grant your wish."
Chen Zhao suddenly jumped behind Yu Ran, "Brother, protect me."
Yu Ran was suddenly pulled and stumbled. He turned around and glared at Chen Zhao. Chen Zhao chuckled and let go of Yu Ran's arm.
Gu Yao glanced at him and said, "What a disappointment!"
Chen Zhao looked timid and dared not speak again. He hadn't recovered from the fall that Cen Yubai had just thrown him.
Gu Yao put away his phone. "What's the rush? It's Thursday today, you'll see each other the day after tomorrow. I'll treat you to a meal, order whatever you like."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhao became excited, as if a serf had been liberated and was singing a song of joy. "You said it yourself, so I'll order the most expensive one."
During this time, I've gotten to know a bit about the family I live with. Gu Yao is usually low-key, and everything he has is top-notch, so it's obvious he's not short of money.
Gu Yao smiled and said, "Okay, you can have whatever you want."
Chen Zhao then let Gu Yao go and picked up his computer to start typing.
He wanted to give Gu Yao a good beating to soothe his wounded heart; this time, he was determined to make Gu Yao bleed profusely!
Chen Zhaoxiong, brimming with confidence, had collected numerous five-star hotel listings. Looking at the long list of zeros on the menu, he wished he could fast-forward to Saturday immediately.
He wanted to search for that restaurant from last time, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find any information about Qinghe, so he gave up.
When Cen Yubai heard Chen Zhao say "girlfriend," his brow twitched, and he turned his head to look at Gu Yao.
He simply couldn't connect the ruthless head of the Xie family with the word "girlfriend."
It feels so out of place.
Gu Yao's expression remained unchanged.
Once Chen Zhao finally calmed down, Cen Yubai sent a message to Gu Yao.
[“Did you manage to snatch her?”]
With a touch of joking, but after spending more than a month together, Cen Yubai had gained a better understanding of Gu Yao and spoke more casually.
Gu Yao glanced at it and replied.
["Um."]
Cen Yubai didn't ask any more questions; in fact, he was quite pleased.
After all, the Xie Group is a powerful backer, not just any powerful backer, but a golden one.
Moreover, judging from Xie Gui's attitude towards Gu Yao, he'll be completely under Gu Yao's thumb.
---
Saturday.
Knowing he was going to meet a beautiful woman today, Chen Zhao started getting ready early, searching through his clothes, which looked like dried pickles, for the most suitable outfit.
After much effort, Chen Zhao took out his most treasured clothes and stood in front of the mirror, fiddling with his hair to make sure every single strand was covered.
Yu Ran and Cen Yubai were woken up early by Chen Zhao's voice. Looking at the busy people, they exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with helplessness.
Especially Cen Yubai, who stayed up all night working on a report and didn't fall asleep until 3 a.m. He was woken up by Chen Zhao before 8 a.m. and his whole demeanor exuded a gloomy atmosphere.
"Chen Zhao, we're having lunch. What are you doing up so early in the morning?"
Chen Zhao was fiddling with his hair in front of the mirror, coughing lightly, and looking mysterious. "She's the first girl in our dorm to get a boyfriend. A girl who can catch Gu Yao's eye must be very beautiful and outstanding. We have to leave a good impression on him and not let our brothers down."
"Gu Yao is so handsome, we can't be too bad, can we?"
As he spoke, he reached out and pulled Cen Yubai, trying to drag him off the bed. "Not only me, but all of you, you all need to get moving, hurry up!"
He grabbed Cen Yubai while waving at Yu Ran.
"I specially spent a lot of money to buy a bottle of hairspray. You guys should have some too, and take good care of your hair."
Seeing that this person was about to attack Cen Yubai's hair, Yu Ran lowered his eyebrows and looked somewhat gloomy.
She suddenly rolled out of bed and walked towards Chen Zhao, grabbing him and saying, "Chen Zhao, don't touch me like that."
Chen Zhao didn't take it seriously. "We're all boys. A little touch won't break a piece of flesh. Why are you being so delicate?"
Yu Ran endured it for a long time, but finally couldn't take it anymore. He shoved the man into the bathroom and said, "You haven't even brushed your teeth and you're already messing with your hair. What girl would want you? And what's with that hairspray? What kind of fake product is that? It smells awful."
Chen Zhao yelled through a door, "Yu Ran, don't talk nonsense! I spent a lot of money to buy this. I'm going to find a beautiful wife. You're destined to be single forever, don't hold me back."
Yu Ran nodded. "Yes, a huge sum of one hundred and thirty."
Chen Zhao remained silent.
He took a deep breath, his expression somewhat unnatural, but he didn't hold back, "You still want to find a beautiful wife? Dream on! Your auntie has given me all your ugly photos from childhood to adulthood."
The person who had just turned off the engine jumped up and tried to turn the doorknob, but Yu Ran held him tightly. "Wash your hair before you come out, and brush your teeth while you're at it."
Seeing that his resistance was futile, Chen Zhao became somewhat dejected. "It really smells awful!"
Hearing the somewhat dejected voice, Yu Ran was taken aback, but nodded seriously, "Of course, you can ask Yu Bai if you don't believe me."
Cen Yubai, who was suddenly called out, was taken aback. He took a sniff and frowned. "It smells bad."
To be fair, it didn't actually have a very strong smell, but Cen Yubai was sensitive and naturally disliked these things even more.
Chen Zhao was completely deflated, looking as aggrieved as a 182cm tall child. "My 130cm! You shady merchant! I'll wash this thing right away."
The sound of water came from the bathroom, and the bedroom became quiet.
Separated by a door, Yu Ran looked dejected.
Having witnessed the whole thing, Cen Yubai pretended to be dead and quickly shrank into the blankets.
Yu Ran didn't care about him.
His intentions were so obvious, and these two people were so observant, they should have noticed it long ago.
Right now, they're probably just concerned about saving face for him.
Besides, I never intended to hide it.
Only that idiot doesn't understand anything.
Yet each time, she manages to stab him in the heart without him even realizing it.
Yu Ran took a deep breath, lowered his head, looking slightly embarrassed and dejected. He rubbed his fingertips together and gently exhaled.
