The handsome guy next door loves to flirt.

Chapter 269 He's not right for you

After Yunle and the others calmed down, she spoke again: "Huainan is getting engaged..."

He's not right for you!

"I know... but my heart still aches, especially now that I have nothing left..." Yun Le said, tears falling from her eyes again.

Ah Zhong saw her start crying again and felt somewhat helpless. He rarely saw her so heartbroken and thought she was carefree. He figured that man must hold a very important place in her heart. He just sat there silently for a long time until she stopped crying.

"You blockhead, you can't even comfort someone..."

"Let's go, I'll take you home!" she said, and stood up.

"Wait, how is my dad now?" Yun Le thought of her father who was still in the hospital. Although she felt resentment, she still wanted to know how he was doing.

"The same as always." Ah Zhong didn't want to say more. His family had served the Gu family for generations, and he wouldn't do anything to harm Gu Cheng.

"Is that so? Then Yun Huan will be left unchecked, and the Gu family will fall into chaos again."

"Ignore her, don't be like her," Ah Zhong said solemnly, staring at her.

"Don't worry, I'm not as stupid as her. Don't think I don't know why Gao Yao wants her. Isn't he after the Gu family's wealth? It's just that he doesn't know that my dad has already made his will. He's probably been completely fooled by Yun Huan. She's best at lying, but she's incapable of cleaning up the mess she makes. Every time, my mother has to help her. She's squandered all of my mother's money and hasn't learned her lesson. Now that I think about it, I'm not the most pitiful person in the Gu family. My mother is more pitiful than me. If Yun Huan continues like that, she won't be any better off."

"You better understand."

"Wood, today is so strange. Huainan talked to me a lot, and so did you... Actually, I think I'm pretty good like this now. At least I'm living freely and authentically, and every day from now on belongs to me."

"Ok!"

He pulled her up and walked with her to the parking lot. He had been taking turns looking after Gu Cheng with others, but when he returned home from his rest at night, he saw Yun Le crying by the roadside. He stopped the car involuntarily and slowly walked over to her.

Finally, Ah Zhong took Yun Le to his rented apartment, where they ran into the college student who shared the apartment with her downstairs.

"Lele, was the person who brought you back just now your boyfriend?"

Yunle's roommate is Meimei, a junior at a nearby university. Because her studies aren't demanding and her family isn't well-off, she rents a place outside for convenience while working. She's very cheerful and outgoing, and she and Yunle have known each other for only two days before they've become quite familiar.

"Boyfriend? No, you misunderstood. It's just... a regular friend. I saw it was getting dark, so I helped bring it back."

"Go away, you're lying. I saw him wait until we went upstairs before he left. Nowadays, ordinary friends will just drop you off, they won't get out of the car. And if he hadn't run into me, he probably would have taken you upstairs."

"No...that's just how he is, very responsible. Besides, he's eight years older than me, which is too much..."

"They're only eight years old. Some are twenty years older. Haven't you seen the entertainment news? Many men in their forties or fifties have wives who are only in their early twenties."

“It’s impossible between us. He doesn’t like me like this, and I don’t like him like that either. He can’t say a word for a long time.”

"Oh, honest men aren't good enough? I prefer someone more stable. A while ago, a senior from my senior class wanted to pursue me. He used sweet talk, sent flowers, and went on dates with me, but I quickly broke up with him. He's too unreliable. Who would want a man like that after marriage? It's better to be more reliable."

"Really..." Yun Le almost blurted out that she was already married.

After taking a shower, Yunle lay in bed, but tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She didn't know if it was because Huainan was getting engaged or because of what Meimei had said earlier. Ah Zhong... he wouldn't like her. Besides, she didn't want to marry a servant in the family. She would be laughed at, especially Yun Huan, who was the most materialistic. She would be ridiculed to no end.

She shook her head, forcing herself not to think about those things. She had to go to work tomorrow. She had been promoted to a permanent position and her salary had increased. After paying rent and living expenses, she could save some money. With the pocket money she had secretly saved before, she wanted to buy a house and have her own home within three years.

Fortunately, when she was with the Gu family, she didn't live a life of extravagance like Yun Huan. A couple of days ago, she saw Yun Huan sell all of her mother's things. Besides being angry, she also sold her old luxury goods and got a lot of money. With her previous savings, she could afford a house within three years.

The next day, Yunle went to work as usual, but the dark circles under her eyes were quite heavy, clearly indicating that she hadn't slept well.

During her lunch break, she called Yun Shu again.

"Dr. Gu, Huainan's fiancé is Miss Xiao, right? And I heard she's your friend."

"Yunle, Yiyi is my friend, but they broke up before and only got back together these past two days, so I didn't know they were getting married. Are you blaming me?!"

"No, actually Huainan has already explained this to me, but I wanted to hear your version as well. And it's exactly the same as what Huainan said."

“Yunle, things have come to this point. Forget about Huainan. It’s better for both of you.”

"I understand, but..."

“Yunle, Huainan is not suitable for you. First, he doesn’t like you. Second, his mother, Xie Huixin, is difficult to get along with, and his family is a large and complicated one…”

"Ah Zhong said the same thing... Hehe... You're all doing this for my own good, I know..."

After hanging up Yun Shu's call, Yun Le felt a little better. Huai Nan really wasn't right for her. Since she wanted to change things, she should try to forget him. Anyway, she wasn't going back to the compound anymore, so she wouldn't run into him often.

Yun Shu hung up Yun Le's call, feeling a little uneasy. She didn't tell Yun Le about Yi Yi and Huai Nan's situation because she was afraid it would upset her. She hoped Yun Le could understand, and besides, what Yun Le said was true: Huai Nan didn't like her and wasn't suitable for her.

Four years have proven that their marriage was a mistake from the start, perhaps it should never have happened. A marriage tainted by conspiracy and lack of blessing cannot last. Unlike her and Mingkun, who were truly in love.

But even though Huainan and Yiyi broke up, they still like each other, so there's still a chance for them to be together. Besides, Yiyi is good in every way, and her family background is good too. Even if Xie Huixin is strong, Yiyi is smart enough to handle her. But Yunle is different. All she does is argue with Xie Huixin and everyone else to express her dissatisfaction, but that won't work; it will only make her disliked.

Hey! Life is like drinking water; only the person drinking knows whether it's hot or cold. Everyone lives their own life. She didn't want to get too involved in Yunle's affairs. Now that they owe each other nothing, it's already good enough that they can be treated like ordinary people.
