When Gu Beilu heard that Qian Dacai was also present today, he had a bad feeling. Sure enough, when he found Yu Xi, he heard this conversation.

The Qian couple were frightened by the voice and turned pale.

There are many people who want to make connections at such occasions, and a big shot like Gu Beilu shouldn’t have time to take a walk.

Yu Xi was also surprised for a moment. He didn’t know how much Gu Beilu had heard just now. After all, this was an experience he didn’t want anyone to know about. Especially Gu Beilu.

Gu Beilu walked towards Yu Xi with big strides, took his cold hand and pulled him into his arms.

Yu Xi was unexpectedly hugged by him, but his mood had not yet calmed down and he was shaking uncontrollably.

Feeling the coldness of Yu Xi’s body, Gu Beilu frowned and glanced at the two people beside him. But it was only half a second before his attention was completely back on Yu Xi.

In the night, he took off his suit jacket, put it on the person in his arms, and pulled it tighter.

“I’m here. It’s okay.”

Yu Xi heard a very light sound in his ear, so light that only he could hear it, but it was very heavy in his heart. Now he was sure that Gu Beilu must have heard everything just now.

He suddenly felt very embarrassed and didn’t know what to say.

Seeing this, Mrs. Qian knew that this was not a good time, so she pulled Qian Dacai and gave him a wink, meaning that she wanted to leave quickly.

But Qian Dacai shook her hand off. He was still not giving up, he wanted to take another gamble.

“Mr. Gu, it’s a misunderstanding. We are all family. We are Yu Xi’s adoptive parents. This child is immature and must have caused you trouble in your family.” He bet that Yu Xi would not take the initiative to tell the Gu family about their relationship, and also bet that this marriage was really a pawn in the Gu family’s crisis public relations. If this is true, they still have a chance.

As soon as these words came out, Yu Xi felt sick again. He still underestimated how shameless Qian Dacai was.

Just as he was about to move, he felt a large hand on his shoulder pressing him against his warm chest, and then he heard Gu Beilu’s calm voice say, “Get out of here if you know what’s best for you.”

“Mr. Gu, it’s really not what you think…”

“That’s enough.” Qian Dacai’s anxious explanation was interrupted again, and Gu Beilu’s voice became several degrees colder. “I know your family’s background very well. If you are so anxious to go in, then stay.”

Qian Dacai staggered and almost fell to the ground.

He didn’t know how much information Gu Beilu knew about them, but now was definitely not a good time to try to build a relationship with him. He was worried that he would end up losing more than he gained, so he hurriedly pulled Mrs. Qian away.

The hurried footsteps gradually faded away, and the surroundings finally became quiet. The night wind was slightly cool, and Yu Xi was wrapped by Gu Beilu, and only his ears, which were exposed, felt a little chill.

His heartbeat was so heavy that his mind was blank except for the pounding of his heart.

He raised his head and moved a little further away.

Gu Beilu looked at him, with an emotion in his eyes that he couldn’t understand: “I checked them, but I didn’t know they went so far at the time.”

The subordinates only found out that they had exploited Yu Xi to shoot commercials, but they didn’t find any more details, so they didn’t know that Yu Xi joined the team with an illness.

Although they had only been together for a few days, but he could see that Yu Xi was not the kind of person who liked to play the victim. He would only downplay the suffering and injuries he had experienced. If he hadn’t happened to hear it, Yu Xi might never have told him these things.

“Thank you.” Yu Xi’s throat was dry, and he took a deep breath. His eyes became inexplicably distant. “Mr. Gu, I’m sorry for letting you see this. I will take care of my own family affairs and will not implicate you.”

These things had nothing to do with the Gu family. He had already caused a lot of trouble for Gu Beilu and he shouldn’t involve others in this.

“Your own family affairs?” There was a subtle hint of emotion in Gu Beilu’s tone.

Yu Xi was already upset and had no time to identify what emotion that was.

He said with a nasal tone: “Well, Mr. Gu, I’m sorry to have embarrassed you.”

Gu Beilu was very unhappy to hear the words “Mr. Gu”.

He knew that Yu Xi’s politeness and calmness in front of him did not mean that he had no emotions. It was just that Yu Xi knew his limits too well and treated him as Party A. he would not share his joys, sorrows, anger, or happiness with him, let alone share any of his past with him.

He originally thought that as long as they could meet every day, it was only a matter of time before they would develop feelings for each other.

But he realized now that the contract that bound them together had become the biggest gap between them.

The more Yu Xi pushed him away, the tighter he held him in his arms.

When their eyes met, Yu Xi’s calm gaze made Gu Beilu feel uncomfortable.

As angry as Yu Xi was when he looked at Qian Dacai just now, she looked at him calmly at this moment.

Thinking about how Yu Xi almost lost his life for filming a commercial, he knew that he would never let the Qian family go.

When Yu Xi tried to push him away again, he pulled him back with force and lowered his head to kiss his cold lips.

The unexpected kiss left Yu Xi with no time to react, and he didn’t even think of being on guard.

Gu Beilu easily captured the city and forced him to retreat step by step.

When he wanted to resist, he couldn’t push the person away. In the end, he bit down hard, almost suffocating, and blood instantly filled his mouth.

Gu Beilu finally let him go and said sorry in a hoarse voice.

He lowered his head, panting and unable to say anything. He didn’t know why Gu Beilu suddenly wanted to kiss him, and he didn’t want to ask why.

He just wanted to leave this place.

After a moment, he heard Gu Beilu say, “I’m sorry, I’ll take you back first.”

He felt relieved.

Gu Beilu sent him to the car and got in himself.

Before he could ask, Gu Beilu said, “I’ll take you home first, and then I’ll go back to the company.”

“Working overtime so late?” Yu Xi regretted asking as soon as he asked. He shouldn’t care so much.

He quietly shrank back into his coat, pretending that he had never said that.

Gu Beilu reached out and rubbed his head, and said softly: “Your business is my business, I will not allow anyone to bully my wife.”

Yu Xi heard the name and turned to look at the man. He then realized that it was because he had called Mr. Gu twice outside that Gu Beilu kissed him in revenge.

Gu Beilu’s eyes were still full of unpleasant expressions at this moment. Yu Xi’s cheeks became hot when he touched them, so he simply turned away.

He looked out the window.

He had just been kissed and didn’t want to have too much communication with Gu Beilu at the moment, for fear of being kissed again.

After drinking a few glasses of wine at the venue, Yu Xi felt groggy. He returned home, took a quick shower, and fell asleep in the quilt.

When he woke up the next day, he reached for his phone and saw the local news push.

[Qian Dacai, Chairman of Qian’s Group in City C, was arrested]

Yu Xi rubbed his eyes, and after seeing the title clearly, he sat up in shock.

He suddenly realized what Gu Beilu did when he went to the company yesterday.

He jumped out of bed, pushed open the door, and stood there in a daze.

In the kitchen, Gu Beilu was wearing an apron and cooking seriously.

Hearing the noise, he turned around, and the moment he saw Yu Xi, the corners of his mouth curved up: “Wife, breakfast will be ready soon.”

Yu Xi scratched his head, walked into the kitchen, and watched him frying French toast in an elegant manner while humming a little tune. He seemed to be in a good mood.

Yu Xi couldn’t hide the truth, so he asked, “Did you get Qian Dacai arrested?”

Gu Beilu calmly spread a layer of honey on the French toast: “No need for me to do it, they have offended so many people.”

Yu Xi didn’t give up. He stood and watched him turn over the French toast, and asked again: “Does that have anything to do with you?”

Gu Beilu turned his head to look at him, his eyes full of smiles: “Of course, he bullied my wife, can I let him go?”

He then saw Yu Xi standing there with a conflicted expression, hadn’t put on his slippers yet, and was walking barefoot on the cold tiles.

“Why aren’t you wearing shoes?” His smile suddenly disappeared. He put down the kitchen utensils with a serious expression and carried the person in front of him to the center island.

Yu Xi’s feet suddenly flew into the air, and he instinctively grabbed his shoulders tightly with both hands.

Gu Beilu looked at his frightened expression, bit his back teeth, and resisted the urge to kiss him again. He had already been scared last night, so he couldn’t go too far, or he would be scared away.

After Yu Xi sat firmly, he let go of his hand, but the expression on his face became more conflicted.

Gu Beilu explained: “Don’t worry, we are all taking legal means. They have been too arrogant in recent years, and many companies have evidence against them. Yesterday I just let these companies know that they have also offended me.”

The Qian family has offended too many rivals. Someone had previously wanted to ask Gu to work together to deal with Qian Dacai, the old man who disrupted the market, but he didn’t take Qian seriously at all at the time and was too lazy to deal with such matters.

He doesn’t need to do anything now. As long as someone knows that the Qian family and the Gu family are in conflict, someone will naturally take the initiative to send evidence.

Yu Xi understood. After all, he was now a top student majoring in business, and he was still clear about the logic of these business wars. What Qian Dacai had done was enough to keep his family in jail for most of their lives.

As long as the Gu family is not implicated, this was his first reaction.

The hidden danger of Qian Dacai was finally eliminated, and he didn’t have to worry anymore. This was his second reaction.

Unexpectedly, the problem that took Gu Beilu several years to solve in the original book can be solved so quickly now. This is probably because his variable has changed.

All the hard work was not in vain, he thought.

Gu Beilu looked at his thoughtful expression and scratched his nose: “What are you thinking about?”

Yu Xi shook his head and said with relief: “Thank you, Mr. Gu.”

Gu Beilu’s eyes changed: “What did you call me?”

“At home…” Yu Xi felt a little guilty when he thought of what happened yesterday.

“Put on your shoes and go wash up.” Gu Beilu withdrew his gaze helplessly and turned to look at the sizzling stove.

Yu Xi jumped down, wearing the big slippers that Gu Beilu gave him. He sniffed and thought of the question he hadn’t asked before: “Why did you get up to make breakfast today?”

People like Gu Beilu definitely don’t have the habit of cooking. They can earn millions in the time it takes to cook a meal.

Gu Beilu said unhappily, “I kissed my wife without his consent yesterday. I was afraid that he would be angry, so I had to cook to make amends for him.”

Yu Xi was speechless for a moment, and said embarrassedly: “No… I’m not angry…”

Logically, he should be angry, but he didn’t seem to be angry at all, he was just scared.

It was so strange, he rubbed his nose.

“You’re not angry?” Gu Beilu turned his head to look at him, “So can I kiss you again?”

Yu Xi was startled and quickly turned around and ran to the bathroom.
