Gu Man heard their conversation clearly. Looking at the expression on Old Master Li’s face, she could roughly guess that this person definitely believed in ghosts. In that case, it was convenient to manipulate him.
If Gu Yuan wanted to marry his daughter off in such a panic, then he could probably marry any daughter off.
At this moment, Gu Rou, who was standing side by side with Zhang Yue not far away, suddenly sneezed. The distracted Zhang Yue came back to his senses and wanted to take off his coat, but he realized that he was only wearing a single shirt. He retracted his hand awkwardly.
“If you’re cold, go upstairs. There’s a room upstairs.” Zhang Yue actually wanted Gu Rou to rest.
However, Gu Rou’s eyes lit up when she heard this. She had clearly misunderstood what Zhang Yue meant. The manicure she had just finished knocking on Zhang Yue’s chest. “Brother Zhang, you’re really annoying.”
Because of what had happened to the Gu family recently, in addition to Old Master Zhang giving the company to Gu Man, Old Madam Gu was already dissatisfied with Gu Rou, so she had to do something now.
If she could have a child, she might be able to use this child to get Old Master Zhang to give her a company.
At the thought of the two businesses in Gu Man’s hands, Gu Rou was full of hate.
How could Gu Man, who had no face, no figure, and no talent, compare to her?
However, such a person actually received the love of the two families. Gu Rou did not believe it at all and firmly believed that Gu Man was just lucky.
Zhang Yue belatedly realized that his words were ambiguous and his face turned red. However, when he looked at Gu Rou’s face, Gu Man’s figure subconsciously appeared in his mind.
What would she look like if she made such an expression?
Gu Rou looked at the dazed Zhang Yue and shook him unhappily. “Brother Zhang, don’t tell me you suddenly went back on your word?”
Only then did Zhang Yue come back to his senses and quickly waved his hand. “Rou’er, that’s not what 1 meant. Besides, our families have yet to be engaged. 1 don’t want your reputation to be tarnished.”
“Brother Zhang, 1 believe in your character. You’ll definitely treat me very well, so I’ve already taken the initiative. Are you going to reject me?” Gu Rou leaned close to Zhang Yue’s ear and lowered her voice.
How could Zhang Yue withstand such teasing? His heart kept beating, as if it was about to jump out of his chest in the next second. However, when he turned around and saw Gu Man’s face, all his urges were suppressed. This emotion disappeared for no reason, and it was so fast that even Zhang Yue could not catch it.
He clenched his fists, not understanding what was wrong with him. Why was he always thinking about Gu Man’s figure?
Could it be that Gu Man had bewitched him before he knew it, causing him to be obsessed with her?
Otherwise, how could he explain the various strange phenomena that had happened to him?
“Rou’er, no, I haven’t given you a promise. I definitely can’t snatch your body for no reason. 1 won’t be able to bear it,” Zhang Yue promised solemnly, but his mind had already drifted to Gu Man.
Gu Rou did not know what Zhang Yue was thinking. If she knew, she would definitely curse.
She only felt that Zhang Yue was like a fool now. She had already taken the initiative, but he still rejected her. Where was her dignity? Or did Zhang Yue already have someone in his heart, so he didn’t want to touch her body?
The two of them had always had intimate contact, but they had never broken that shackle.
This was because Gu Rou felt that she already had Zhang Yue in her hand. There was no need to use that thing to restrain him, and that could also be her capital to seduce others.
However, she did not expect that she would be rejected time and again when she took the initiative to approach Zhang Yue.
Gu Rou’s expression instantly darkened. “Zhang Yue, what do you mean? Could it be that there’s a woman outside who has hooked your heart, that’s why you rejected me?”
Because her anger had burned her rationality, Gu Rou blurted out her thoughts. It was too late for regrets when she said it, but she could not take it back. She could only purse her lips and look at Zhang Yue..
