Lin Feiwei watched her with a click of her tongue. "This cake is from the top patisserie in the capital. People like you don't usually get to eat it. Here, I'll give you my slice too. Eat slowly, no one's fighting you for it... after all, we can eat it whenever we want."
Ye Wan looked up at the elegantly made-up woman. Her emotions had already calmed down. She said faintly, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Lin. I'm sure you know better than anyone if I can eat such top-tier cake anytime I wish."
The Lin family was her choice not to return, not because the Lin family forbade her. So the initiative was hers!
Lin Feiwei's face instantly soured at her retort. She knew what Ye Wan meant. As long as she was willing to return to the Lin family, she would be the eldest daughter, not to mention cakes, she would also have a share of the stocks.
Of course, even if she didn't return, she had overheard her brother on the phone saying he would transfer the shares left by their grandfather to Ye Wan.
This was something Lin Feiwei absolutely could not allow. All the Lin family stocks had to be hers, and even her brother was only fit to work for her and earn money for her!
...
On the other side, Jiang Jingxiu and the driver went their separate ways to buy things. They finally bought everything and had the driver deliver it to Ye Wan's room at the Gu residence. He then rushed back to the birthday banquet.
After Ye Wan ate the cake, she sat for a while longer. She felt out of place with the people here and had no common topics. This was Lin Feiwei's turf, and she could chat happily with everyone.
Ye Wan proposed to leave, and Gu Yunting also didn't want to stay any longer. He just wanted to go back and see the birthday gift Ye Wan had prepared for him.
When Jin Lan learned that Jiang Jingxiu had already sent the items, he finally felt at ease. He let Gu Yunting and Ye Wan leave first while he stayed to entertain the guests.
Gu Yunting and Ye Wan left the banquet hall together. As they walked to the lobby, Jiang Yan excitedly called out to her, "Ye Wan!"
Ye Wan turned to look. Jiang Yan and Jun Li Chen walked over together. Jun Li Chen was wearing the shirt Ye Wan had given him.
Ye Wan instinctively wanted to tell Gu Yunting to leave first. Jun Li Chen spoke first, saying, "Ye Wan, thank you for the birthday gift. I really like this shirt."
Jun Li Chen raised his hand and adjusted his cuffs, a faint smile on his face. He glanced provocatively at the man beside him.
Gu Yunting frowned at the blue and white striped shirt on this man. He did not let Jun Li Chen's provocative gaze pass him by.
Jiang Yan felt a strange sensation seeing Ye Wan with Gu Yunting. She pulled Ye Wan aside and asked, "Where did you get the money to buy such an expensive shirt for Senior Jun?"
Ye Wan bit the bullet and said, "Senior Jun, Jiang Yan, I have something else to do, so I'll be going. We can talk about anything at school."
...
In the car, Ye Wan sat there, a light cold sweat already on her back. Her hands were clenched tightly in nervousness, her nails digging into her flesh.
Jiang Jingxiu and Jin Lan sent messages, constantly urging her not to slip up. But Ye Wan felt that Gu Yunting had already seen through everything.
She had never dared to doubt his intelligence.
Gu Yunting remained silent throughout the journey, simply sitting with his eyes closed, exuding a cold aura. Upon arriving at the Gu residence, the bodyguard opened the car door, and Gu Yunting stepped out first, entering the villa.
Ye Wan also got out of the car and walked into the villa.
Gu Yunting walked to the sofa and sat down, saying coldly, "You bought me a gift, didn't you? Bring it here, let me see."
