Looking at the table full of sumptuous breakfast, Yu Xi couldn’t wait to try a bite of each one and found that they not only looked good but also tasted good.

“Did you really do this?” He looked at Gu Beilu with disbelief.

“Is it delicious?” Gu Beilu walked to the dining table with two cups of coffee from the kitchen. “I learned it from the master in the hotel before.”

Yu Xi nodded honestly and stuffed another mouthful of mashed potatoes into his mouth. Gu Beilu’s cooking skills were so good, and the food he cooked was much better than his. Wasn’t his cooking yesterday just a show-off?

“But you said yesterday that my cooking was delicious.” Yu Xi muttered while eating.

He originally thought that Gu Beilu, a domineering CEO in novels, must not be able to take care of himself, but he didn’t expect this to be the case. God is so unfair, how can he give all the advantages to the same person?

“Of course what my wife cooks is delicious. I’ve never eaten food cooked by my wife.” Gu Beilu took a sip of coffee.

Yu Xi heard it and tilted his head: “You had a wife before?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the head.

“Don’t talk nonsense.” Gu Beilu looked at his watch. “I’m going to the company today. Are you going to school?”

Yu Xi remembered that he had to meet Shen Di today: “I don’t have classes in the morning, I’ll go see my classmates. I have an internship in the afternoon.”

“I have a meeting and I don’t know when it will end. I’ll let you know when the time comes.” Gu Beilu said.

Yu Xi nodded, still indulging in the delicious food.

After confirming that his wife was really not angry, Gu Beilu felt relieved.

He made a lot of breakfast today. Looking at the people at the table with bulging mouths, they looked like hungry hamsters feasting on their food. It was so cute.

Where Yu Xi couldn’t see, Gu Beilu’s eyes were full of warmth.

It was past rush hour when they left the house, and they were the only two people in the elevator going downstairs.

Because Yu Xi was going to school, he wore a white T-shirt and jeans and carried a backpack. He looked neat and tidy, which was in sharp contrast to Gu Beilu’s suit and tie.

Yu Xi lowered his head, took out his cell phone from his pocket, checked the time, put it back into his pocket, then took off the ring on his ring finger and put it back into his pocket.

After performing a series of smooth movements, he suddenly paused, feeling the burning gaze above his head.

He raised his head and saw Gu Beilu staring at him without blinking.

Although he didn’t say anything, he scratched his face inexplicably and said, “It’s not convenient for me to go to school… wearing such expensive jewelry.”

No one in the school knew about his sudden marriage, and he didn’t want to become the center of attention because of it.

Gu Beilu naturally understood his thoughts, but looking at the innocent little white rabbit in front of him, the hunter had evil thoughts again.

He took a step forward, and Yu Xi instinctively took a step back.

In the narrow space of the elevator, when Yu Xi leaned his back against the elevator mirror, Gu Beilu reached out and placed a cushion on the back of his head to prevent him from getting hurt.

In front of Yu Xi, Gu Beilu’s deep facial features magnified, the two people’s breath intertwined, and the temperature around them rose instantly.

Yesterday’s scene reappeared in front of him at an inappropriate time. Yu Xi quickly shook his head: “Mr. Gu… Mr. Gu, I will wear it before I go home tonight.”

“Boss Gu?” Gu Beilu raised his eyebrows, “Are you sure you want to call me that?”

Feeling the danger, Yu Xi’s heart tightened, and without thinking, he closed his eyes and shouted: “Husband!”

The next second, he heard a “ding” sound and the elevator reached the first floor.

Gu Beilu curled the corners of his mouth, ruffled his hair with his big hands, and led him out of the elevator while holding back his smile.

Yu Xi’s ears turned red, he let out a long sigh, and angrily rejected Gu Beilu’s proposal to send him to school.

“We’re just across the street. No need to send me off.” He glanced at the eye-catching license plate number. “Besides, your car is too high-profile. Who would take a car like this to school?”

Gu Beilu kept it in mind and prepared to ask his assistant to buy a car for him.

In the university cafe, Shen Di almost fell off his chair after listening to Yu Xi’s story.

“Xixi! Have you been cheated? Have you suffered any loss? Have you been bullied?”

Yu Xi grabbed his arm to prevent him from falling: “I only told you, don’t tell anyone else.”

Shen Di is his best friend. It was Shen Di who helped him through his most difficult times, so he had no reason to hide anything from Shen Di.

“But, Xixi, you are still so young, so pretty, and you are the top student in your major. You can find anyone you want. Why did you choose to get married with such an ugly and old man?”

Shen Di was heartbroken, and had imagined a scene in his mind where the sponsor forced Canary to marry him. He couldn’t help but shudder. Looking at Yu Xi, who was as beautiful as a fairy, he suddenly felt as if his cabbage was being eaten by a pig.

“I know you’re thinking about me, but actually…” Yu Xi thought for a moment and said something fair, “He’s not ugly. And he didn’t make things difficult for me. I volunteered. After all, you know, the Qian family was very tight at the time.”

“That’s right, the Qian family won’t have a chance to trouble you anymore.” Shen Di adjusted his glasses and became serious. He had seen how Yu Xi was bullied by the Qian couple in the past few years. “Well, it seems that this guy named Gu is still somewhat useful. But Xixi, you can’t trust him too much. None of these cunning businessmen are good. What do you do? Set my phone as an emergency number. If anything happens, call me and I’ll come to save you.”

If he had enough money, he would have definitely gone to redeem Yu Xi to prevent the old man from getting a bargain.

“Thank you Shen Di, I know you are the best!” Yu Xi handed the ice cream to Shen Di. If it weren’t for Shen Di, he would have been homeless in the past few years. “Signing this contract will also benefit me. At least I don’t have to worry about money, and you don’t have to worry about me anymore.”

“You are my best friend, and don’t I know you yet! You are not the kind of person who only cares about money.” Shen Di sighed, and then thought of something, his eyes lit up, “But it’s good, you can finally change your major, haven’t you always wanted to study marine science? Oh, by the way, are you still going to that financial internship?”

Yu Xi nodded: “I have to go. After all, the professor helped me get it with great difficulty. If I want to change my major, it will be next school year.”

He always does things from beginning to end, and this internship opportunity is very rare, it is a project of the financial company M Fund. Originally, they did not consider freshmen, but their professor knew his situation, an excellent student with a scholarship from a poor family. Each professor has several places for such excellent students who need job opportunities, so they fought for him.

Internship is in the afternoon, requiring formal wear, Yu Xi went back to the apartment to change into a suit that Gu Beilu bought for him that day. He thought it would be a waste to buy so many, but now he knows that studying finance really needs to prepare several suits.

Before his afternoon internship, he received a message from Gu Beilu.

[Gu Beilu: Would you be so kind as to have dinner with me tonight? ]

[Yu Xi: The internship group is having a dinner party tonight. I’ll treat you to something you’ve never eaten before.]

M Fund has arranged a welcome dinner for interns today. If there is no dinner, Yu Xi feels that he would like to treat Gu Beilu to a meal. He suddenly thought of what to treat Gu Beilu to.

[Gu Beilu: Dinner party? What to eat? Remember to follow the doctor’s advice]

The doctor said that after taking the drug, I can’t eat spicy food for a week and I have to eat a light diet.

[Yu Xi: Don’t worry. Mr. Gu]

M Fund is a young fund company that has been gaining momentum in the past two years, and it is also the dream place for many new financial professionals. Starting this year, M Fund has cooperated with the finance departments of the best universities in the country. There are only seven or eight interns this time, and all of them are top students.

The HR in charge of guiding the interns took them on a tour of the company and gave them a rough overview of the daily operations of each department of the company: “These are the places you need to know. Above that is our boss’ office, which we usually don’t go to.”

One of the interns was puzzled: “Isn’t that the office we just passed by the boss’ office?”

HR shook his head and explained, “That was the office of our M Fund CEO. The office upstairs is the real big boss, Mr. Gu’s office. Our M Fund is invested by Gu’s company. Some of you may not know this.”

The interns around sighed. Who wouldn’t know about Gu’s, such a powerful company?

Yu Xi widened his eyes, how could this be such a coincidence?

Just as he was comforting himself, it couldn’t be such a coincidence that Gu Beilu was here today, someone next to him asked: “Then will we have a chance to meet Mr. Gu?”

HR saw what some people were thinking: “Don’t worry, Mr. Gu rarely comes here.”

There were cries of pity from those around him, and only Yu Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

The intern group was arranged to receive training in a small conference room located in the middle of the office area. The conference room had glass walls on two sides, so people outside could see clearly what was happening inside.

After Gu Beilu was rejected for dinner with Yu Xi, he was bored and decided to go to the subsidiary. M Fund was their first attempt to open up the financial track. He personally led it at the beginning. Now that the company is on the right track, he has not been there for a long time.

After the surprise inspection of the company’s daily operations, Gu Beilu was quite satisfied.

He asked the CEO: “I see most of them are new faces, are young people comfortable using them?”

The CEO quickly replied: “Yes, Mr. Gu. Because the target customers of our new products this year are young people between 25 and 40 years old, we need a young team. Don’t worry, our HR is very professional, the talents we screen are the most suitable, and the screening process is also the most rigorous. Do you have any new instructions?”

Gu Beilu asked casually: “Don’t be nervous, I won’t interfere with your recruitment. I’m not interested in these details. I only look at the results.”

The CEO was relieved after receiving the boss’s affirmation. When passing by the small glass-walled conference room, the CEO said, “This is our newly recruited intern team, all of whom are top finance students from top universities. They will serve as a talent pool for the next project.”

Gu Beilu stopped and cast his sharp eyes on the fairest and most serious intern among them.

The other interns noticed the two elite-looking people outside the glass, and they knew at a glance that they were at the director level or above.

Only Yu Xi lowered his head and took notes seriously, without any distraction at all.

The CEO then said: “Mr. Gu, you are definitely not interested in the daily work of HR. Come to the office and I will show you the plan for next quarter. We have set the KPI for next quarter…”

Gu Beilu walked straight to the entrance of the conference room: “I would like to know more about your recruitment process.”

CEO: …Weren’t you not interested?
