"Brother Liancheng has many guest rooms in his house. Itâs so late, you shouldnât leave. Stay here, right, Brother Liancheng?"
Gu Liancheng glanced at her, then looked at Eleven, "Stay."
His sentence was affirmative, more like an order, rather than asking for her opinion.
The corners of Elevenâs lips curved in a perfect smile, a perfected smile from years of working with him. "I have trouble sleeping in unfamiliar places, and if I donât get good sleep, I wonât be able to work tomorrow."
Truth be told, this was the first time Eleven had ever been under the same roof with his rumored love interest, their first face-to-face encounter, and their first conversation. This had never happened before.
As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind.
Regardless of whether he had any affairs with anyone, if she could not see it, it was easier to deceive herself and pretend it never happened.
But now, being asked to sleep while breathing the same air as Shang Muxue seemed to cause a tumult in her stomach, making her uncomfortable.
Gu Liancheng kept walking.
The mansion was huge, with a semicircular second floor. The staircase was a long curved design. With one person on the top and the other at the bottom, conversing in the quiet of the night, the chirping of insects from outside could be heard.
Their voices echoed a bit in the spacious mansion.
"Su Qing is not leaving tonight either."
"Oh yes, I forgot to mention, Iâm also spending the night, I need to take the boss to the company tomorrow morning."
Su Qingâs deliberate explanation made Eleven somewhat skeptical, but the key point was that Su Qing wouldnât be able to give her a lift home.
"You canât get a taxi around here," Gu Liancheng stepped down to the ground, "Alternatively, do you know how to drive?"
...
"Let me tell you Feiâer, once I get back, Iâll enroll in a driving school to get my driving license! Itâs totally humiliating! How can I survive without knowing how to drive in this day and age!"
After Eleven took a shower and put on her bathrobe, she sat on the bed complaining.
"Oh come on, just go to bed, sweetheart. What else can you do? Youâre not thinking of having a showdown with Little Snow, are you?"
If Eleven really wanted to go home, of course Ye Fei would have someone pick her up. But right now, Eleven was compromising and didnât want to make a fuss.
"Besides, think about it. Our Boss Gu gave you quite a breath of fresh air today! I regret so much for not being there tonight! Otherwise I couldâve seen the splendid expressions of those by the surname Jin and Yao... Ah, it would have been so satisfying!"
"Hmm..." Eleven thought about it.
Well, that was indeed the case.
Considering what he did for her today, it can be said that the good and bad were balanced.
Well, who asked her to be so broad-minded.
"Dear, as it stands, you wonât lose as long as you donât fall for Boss Gu. If you donât want to fight for him or grab him from anyone, then protect your heart and donât lose it, okay?"
"Yes."
"Donât think too much about Little Snow."
"I know."
She didnât think too much about it.
Shang Muxue + Cute > She + Jiujiu.
Because behind Shang Muxue, there was an entire Shang family supporting her, while she had nothing.
Eleven was indeed a bit of a stickler for her bedding, lying awake in bed for a long time.
After a few sleepless hours, she glanced at her phone. It was one in the morning.
Eleven got tired of lying down, so she got up and walked around in the living room. She remembered seeing a fridge in a corner, perhaps it had some food in it.
When she went over, she found a little figure squatting there, which dispelled some of her sleepiness.
Wasnât that Cute?
As Eleven approached, she saw the little girl...
...had fallen asleep with the fridge door open!
Awkward!
"Cute?" Eleven tapped her a little.
