Huihui was so touched she almost cried, "Ye Wan, I knew you were my good friend. You'd definitely be willing to help me!"
...
Downstairs, after collecting the items, Ying Wuji and Guan Yue left with their people. Guan Yue was clearly still unwilling to give up, her gaze practically glued to Ying Wuji. At this point, she wasn't even hiding it anymore.
She signaled to two people to go ahead. These two were her subordinates, so they naturally obeyed her. They took the retrieved collection and left first.
Guan Yue gritted her teeth and lunged at Ying Wuji. Ying Wuji frowned at her. Just as Guan Yue was about to get close, a bodyguard stepped out and stopped her, pushing her away.
Guan Yue looked at Ying Wuji with a wronged expression and said, "Wuji, we've known each other for so many years, we understand each other. Everyone assumes we're a couple. When exactly do you plan to marry me?"
Not only friends but also Ying Wuji's parents assumed they were a couple. But only she knew that Ying Wuji had never once indicated he wanted to marry her.
"Guan Yue, I don't know you well." Ying Wuji was genuinely confused. When had he ever been close to this woman? He had only met her a few times, and she was talking about marriage? Was she out of her mind?
Ying Wuji found her utterly bizarre.
"How can you say we don't know each other? We see each other often, and we've worked together at your parents' birthday banquets. How can we not know each other? Wuji, I'm almost thirty years old. I really can't wait any longer. Let's set a wedding date." Guan Yue was desperate now. She didn't want to wait any longer. Although she and Ying Wuji were considered a couple by many, he had never brought up marriage. He was divorced and could afford to wait, but she couldn't.
Ying Wuji looked at her with a puzzled expression. "I haven't noticed you."
Yes, although Guan Yue had been fluttering around Ying Wuji, he had never truly noticed her. Therefore, in his impression, they were not close at all.
Huihui, who had overheard everything while lying in the bamboo forest, was laughing hysterically. As expected, his father didn't like this old hag. But this old hag actually came to boast about marrying his father and becoming his stepmother!
"I think your father's ability to ward people off is quite strong. I don't need to intervene," Ye Wan said softly.
"No, I'm afraid this old hag still won't give up and will keep bothering my dad. You going there is more reassuring. Hurry!" Huihui said, grabbing her hand and pulling her out of the bamboo forest.
Ye Wan: "..."
She immediately put on a graceful smile and walked out with Huihui in a picture of serene companionship. Huihui immediately called out, "Dad, why are you here? Auntie and I have been looking for you for ages."
Huihui's voice interrupted Ying Wuji and Guan Yue. Everyone turned their heads towards Ye Wan and Huihui. When they saw the girl's appearance, they were all stunned for three seconds. The girl was incredibly beautiful. Ye Wan wasn't wearing her work uniform today. Her abdomen was slightly protruding, which would have been obvious if she wore her uniform. So, she wore a loose top and pants, with a pink vest over them, making her look tender and stunning, as if she had stepped out of a painting.
Ying Wuji frowned, looking at the woman walking intimately with his son. He immediately guessed that this woman was the new friend his son had mentioned, Ye Wan.
Seeing that Ye Wan wasn't talking to her father, Huihui squeezed her palm hard. Ye Wan: "..."
She put on a shy expression, lowered her head, and said, "Did we come at the wrong time? Did we interrupt you talking with your friend?"
