Eleven stared ahead, zoned out for a moment, then laughed, "Yeah, impossible."
"However, thereâs one thing theyâre right about, youâre at least rich." Bai Xiaoxiao walked beside her, smiling as she spoke.
"Iâm rich?"
"Gu Liancheng."
"Oh... him." Eleven joined her in laughter, "Stop mocking me. His money is his own, itâs not going to be mine."
"Really?" Bai Xiaoxiao held her hand, "I donât believe it! Heâs so good to you, always taking care of you. My dear friend, please look out for me. If you get rich in the future, share a bit with me."
"Stop it, Miss Bai!" Eleven lunged at her, giving her a playful bump on the forehead, "Youâre the Miss Thousand Gold here, why are you picking on me? Careful, or Iâll smack you."
"Whoâs joking? How can our Bai Family compare to the Gu Family? Theyâre the leading one among the four great families. Even Gu Lianchengâs fingertip is worth more than our entire family."
Eleven laughed, "Youâre exaggerating."
"Not an exaggeration, itâs a fact!"
Whether it was a fact or not, Eleven really didnât know. She had never cared about Gu Lianchengâs worth. She genuinely had no idea how much money he had.
However, since the Gu Family is the leading one among the four great families, itâs needless to say that they are better off than the Bai Family.
"Oh, Xiaoxiao, could you send a message to Wan Jun for me? Ask her to pick up Jiujiu."
"Hasnât he bought you a phone yet?"
"No, I havenât mentioned it to him."
Bai Xiaoxiao accompanied Eleven out, and sent a message to Ye Wanjun.
The Bentley parked outside the school gate was eye-catching, it was difficult for Eleven to ignore it. She examined it closely, suddenly realized, isnât this Gu Lianchengâs beloved car?
He had numerous cars, some frequently appearing in media, others for everyday use. Lately, this Bentley had been his favorite.
Eleven trotted up to the vehicle and rapped her knuckles on the window.
The car window rolled down, and Gu Liancheng seated inside turned to look at her, "Finished class?"
"Yes!" Eleven nodded, "Are you here to pick me up?"
Here, she dared not openly call him "husband", afraid it would cause unwanted attention if overheard.
Gu Liancheng didnât answer her directly, he just slightly tilted his head and said, "Get in."
Bai Xiaoxiao came up behind her, politely nodding her head, "Mr. Gu."
Gu Liancheng looked at her, his eyes carrying a scrutiny they couldnât understand, his expression was serious, but he remained silent.
Bai Xiaoxiao felt a lump in her throat, why did she feel... his gaze seemed somewhat terrifying?
Seeing Bai Xiaoxiao instinctively take a small step back, Eleven acted as peacemaker, flashing Gu Liancheng a brilliant smile, "This is my good friend Bai Xiaoxiao, donât you remember?"
"Didnât forget." He simply replied.
Bai Xiaoxiao.
Her face, of course, he remembered.
Bai Xiaoxiaoâs eyes flickered, "Iâm flattered that Mr. Gu remembers me."
Gu Liancheng didnât respond to her comment.
"Can Xiaoxiao also ride with us?" Eleven clapped her hands together in plead.
Gu Liancheng glanced towards the passenger seat, "Sit there."
"Yes, Sir!" Eleven grinned broadly, saluting him, and then ran to open the passenger side door.
"..." Gu Liancheng said in a low voice, "She gets in."
"Ah? Oh..." Eleven had to reluctantly backtrack, opening the rear door to get in.
Bai Xiaoxiao took the passenger seat, greeting Su Qing with a polite nod.
Su Qing responded with a formal tightening of his lips.
The car started to move.
After driving some distance, Gu Liancheng turned around to look at Eleven, who was sticking to the car door, "Why are you sitting so far away?"
