At that time, Eleven never imagined that she would end up marrying the man standing before her.
They were both stunned by each other at first sight.
Eleven thought she had never seen a man as handsome as him.
Gu Liancheng thought her eyes were clear and innocent, and she was even more pure and charming than any magazine model.
She was beautiful, but to him, she was still a child at that time, so beauty wasnât his immediate impression of her.
Upon seeing Gu Liancheng, she forgot to cry, her tears abruptly ceased.
She stared at him, speaking with a nasal voice, "Sir, you should stay away from me."
"Why?" he asked.
"Iâm a plague," she said, "Everyone stays away from me."
"Youâre not," Gu Liancheng said.
In June, the thunderstorm came quickly and left quickly too, the dark clouds scattered rapidly, hinting at the sunâs imminent appearance.
Along with it, Fang Elevenâs gloomy mood also vanished.
The huge downpour washed away all her sadness and misery.
It took many calls from Su Bai to bring the daydreaming Gu Liancheng back to reality.
He tucked away his memories, calmly asked as if he hadnât been lost in thought, "How did she get that wound on her forehead?"
In the beginning, she lied and deceived him, but he didnât mind.
But now when he thought about it, even her forehead wound seemed complicated!
Su Bai fumbled for words: "This..."
He didnât know.
Even when his wife was bullied, he was the last to know. Su Qing only found out because the incident with Ye Fei became a big deal, and then informed him.
Gu Liancheng didnât blame them.
"Call the school, make sure to tell them itâs my wish, donât lay a finger on her. They wonât be able to bear the consequences."
It seemed he had indeed taken lightly the necessity to protect her before. No one in higher management at the school was aware of their relationship. If they knew about it, they definitely wouldnât dare to treat Eleven like this.
"Donât worry, Mr. Gu!" Su Bai said, "The wife is fine now. Young Princess Ye has warned that anyone who dares to touch the wife will be kicked out! They donât dare utter an extra word now."
Ye Fei, huh?
He hadnât chosen the wrong person.
But shortly after, his brows furrowed tightly together.
She hadnât even mentioned such a big incident happening to her!
If Su Qing and Su Bai hadnât discovered it, was she planning to keep him in the dark forever?
This girl, she managed their relationship to near perfection!
Couldnât she be a bit more flexible?
Even knowing that he canât resist her sweetness, why didnât she use it to her advantage?
People say one should whisper a few words into their partnerâs ears, but she hadnât whispered a single wind into his!
At first, he wished she could behave herself and not cause trouble for him. Now that sheâs too well-behaved, he felt somewhat perturbed.
Wanting to meet a little wife who would rely on him for everything, run home to cry and pout and seek revenge when bullied, had unexpectedly become a difficult matter.
But there were some things that Gu Liancheng could only intuit and not verbalize. He would never explain these things to Eleven.
However, President Gu didnât know, not everyone could read his mind. He didnât speak, but they still knew what he was thinking.
And Eleven, she understood her position all too well.
"By the way, Mr. Gu, Miss Shang invites you to dinner tomorrow night." Although he knew the president was in a bad mood, he still had to deliver the message.
Otherwise, if a misunderstanding occurred, he wouldnât be able to bear the responsibility!
"Tell her Iâm busy."
"Uh..." Su Bai was startled, the president... refused?
"Miss Shang said... that it could be anytime, after you finish your work."
It seemed like they had anticipated this situation beforehand.
Gu Lianchengâs brow furrowed deeper, as he seemed to grow angrier, he coldly uttered, "No meeting."
