Ji Mingyue ate very carefully.

She knew this side of the Gu family. They did not have many rules, and they chatted as they ate. Especially Mu Mu. He seemed to have an endless number of things to say to Gu Qingyao.

But Ji Mingyue was different. In the past, she would not have minded, but she felt incredibly nervous to have Gu Jinhang sitting next to her.

Especially when she saw him calmly eating her burnt dishes. She grew even more careful.

Gu Jinhang glanced at her. “It’s all right, this is not considered a failure. When conditions were poorer in the past, many people would not even have such food. Perhaps you’re not used to our house? So you’re unable to fully utilize your talents? Tomorrow is a holiday as well. Why not let Yao Yao teach you at your house?”

Gu Qingyao, who was chatting with Mo Beihan: “…”

Since when did she say she was going to the Ji House? She was busy tomorrow!

Gu Jinhang glanced at his younger cousin and smiled gently. “Yao Yao, you’re free anyway. You can go to the Ji house tomorrow to have fun. I’ll send you there.”

Gu Qingyao: “…”

Gu Qingyao looked at Mo Beihan, puzzled. What’s the matter with my second cousin?

Mo Beihan smiled and poured her a bowl of soup. Gu Qingyao silently drank a mouthful before she said to Gu Jinhang, “Oh, all right! I have nothing much to do for the next few days.”

Mo Beihan: “…”

Wife, if you have nothing much to do, you can keep me company.

After dinner, Ji Mingyue was so frightened that she hurried home. Gu Jinhang emerged, holding his coat. “Are you leaving? It’s along my way. I’ll give you a ride!”

He led the way without giving Ji Mingyue a chance to respond. His tone might have been gentle, but it brooked no refusal.

Ji Mingyue: …

She had no choice but to obediently follow Gu Jinhang.

They had just left when Gu Qingyao poked her head out of the second floor’s stairwell. She looked at the two vanis.h.i.+ng figures, then turned and asked Mo Beihan, “Did you realize that something is amiss with my second cousin?”

Mo Beihan looked thoughtful. What could be amiss? He had clearly taken a fancy to the girl!

Men knew other men the best. He had instantly understood Gu Jinhang’s expression when he looked at Ji Mingyue.

Mo Beihan did not reply but pulled his wife into his arms. “Your second cousin has sent you to the Ji family to work as a coolie tomorrow. Don’t you think you should spend the afternoon with me?”

Gu Qingyao: “…”

She rubbed her nose. “It’s so cold outside. There’s nowhere to go!”

Mo Beihan said. “We’re going to my house. My own house. I guarantee it will be warm!”

Gu Qingyao: “…”

There was no escape. Mo Beihan bundled up Gu Qingyao and whisked her away.

Meanwhile, Gu Jinhang and Ji Mingyue had gotten into the car. A chauffeur was driving. Gu Jinhang sat at the back. His air of cunning and menace had vanished. He now seemed gentle and harmless. He even looked a little like a rich playboy.

Ji Mingyue sat next to him, her heart thumping away. She could not manage to say a single word.

“Are you very afraid of me?” Gu Jinhang suddenly asked.

Ji Mingyue’s heart leapt. “No, no!”

“Did what I said just now frighten you?”

Ji Mingyue bit her lips. She lowered her head and did not speak.

Gu Jinhang got up slightly and drew nearer to her. She could feel his hot breath in her ear. “You don’t need to be afraid of me. I’m the one pursuing you. In fact, I should be the one worried that you won’t consent!”

Screech!

The brakes screeched. The chauffeur was so shocked by his master that he had stepped on the brakes.. The car, which had been driving smoothly, suddenly jerked to a halt, causing Ji Mingyue to scream and jerk forward.
