In the golden age, the beginning involves controlling Zhu Suosuo.

Two hundred thousand? That's terrifying!

Zhong Xiaoqin was startled and was about to take the necklace off.

Gu Jia asked, "What are you doing?"

Zhong Xiaoqin said, "I'll take the necklace off and return it to Brother Yi."

Gu Jia said, "Do you think Lin Yi wouldn't know the price of this necklace?"

"Do you know?" Zhong Xiaoqin asked, blinking her eyes. "If I knew, why would he give it to me? Is it too valuable?"

Clearly, Zhong Xiaoqin had thought about it a lot, but she didn't dare to think in that direction.

Gu Jia said directly, "Because Lin Yi likes you."

"No... that can't be right." Zhong Xiaoqin's face turned red instantly.

Gu Jia looked over.

Indeed, cute girls are adorable even when they blush.

Lin Yi really got a good deal.

Gu Jia refused to believe that Lin Yi could resist being attracted to the three of them together, women of different styles.

Zhong Xiaoqin blushed and explained somewhat flusteredly, "Gu Gu, are you overthinking this? Brother Yi treats me like a little sister."

Zhong Xiaoqin smiled and said, "Qingmei is still a sister."

Zhong Xiaoqin's face turned even redder.

Gu Jia smiled and said, "Don't you believe me?"

"Mmm," Zhong Xiaoqin responded in a low voice, not daring to look Gu Jia in the eye.

Gu Jia smiled and said, "Do you remember the gift you received yesterday?"

Zhong Xiaoqin nodded and said, "I know, Manny said it was given to me by Brother Yi."

As Zhong Xiaoqin spoke, she pointed to the clothes she was wearing.

She's wearing the ones that Brother Yi gave her.

Gu Jia said with a smile, "All of those will cost 15."

Zhong Xiaoqin fell silent.

Gu Jia smiled and said, "Xiaoqin, do you still think that just because someone is adopted as a younger sister, they'll treat you this well?"

Zhong Xiaoqin shook her head and said, "Gu Gu, you're right."

Gu Jia smiled and asked, "So, do you like Lin Yi?"

Zhong Xiaoqin whispered, "I like it."

Gu Jia knew that the adorable Zhong Xiaoqin definitely liked Lin Yi.

Otherwise, how could she have such a good impression of Lin Yi?

She rambled on and on, making Lin Yi sound like the best man in the world, but even she couldn't keep up the lie.

The key point is that Zhong Xiaoqin actually listened with great pleasure and agreed with it.

This goes beyond simply liking something.

This has reached the point of addiction.

Gu Jia asked with a smile, "Xiaoqin, may I ask why you like Lin Yi so much?"

Gu Jia was puzzled. They had only met a few times, so why was Zhong Xiaoqin so unforgettable?

Zhong Xiaoqin blushed and said, "Brother Yi is extremely handsome, the most handsome man I've ever seen, and he's so good to me."

Gu Jia instantly understood that Zhong Xiaoqin was quite the fangirl.

It's all about looks.

Gu Jia never expected that Lin Yi could win over Zhong Xiaoqin just by showing his face.

This also shows that Zhong Xiaoqin is truly naive and inexperienced in the ways of the world.

Anyone who has spent a few years in society will know that money is the most important thing, and being handsome is useless.

It's fair to say that any woman with her own thoughts, upon first glance at Lin Yi, would focus on his money.

So is she.

Being handsome is the second most important factor.

But for Zhong Xiaoqin, being handsome became the most important thing.

So for a moment, Gu Jia was a little taken aback.

She always thought in terms of her own habits, but forgot that Zhong Xiaoqin was different from her.

Although Zhong Xiaoqin has been working for several years, she owns a car and a house and earns several thousand yuan a month, so she is very happy.

She is innocent and cute, a bit scatterbrained but kind, and never compares herself to others.

So of the three of them, the one who is truly living the most comfortable life is actually Zhong Xiaoqin.

Gu Jia was thinking too much, about family and company.

Wang Manni works non-stop; she has to sell luxury goods, otherwise she won't have any money.

Only Zhong Xiaoqin, who had no desires, fell in love with Lin Yi because he was handsome and kind to her.

Zhong Xiaoqin's feelings for Lin Yi were not mixed with any self-interest.

She has a very simple and straightforward liking.

Lin Yi is the same.

Lin Yi spent the money not to make Zhong Xiaoqin grateful to him, but to tell Zhong Xiaoqin, "I like you, so I am willing to do anything for you."

If they are girls who like money, they will be happy as long as Lin Yi spends money on them.

Therefore, Lin Yi used different methods to treat different women.

Lin Yi never expected this; he actually won over Zhong Xiaoqin with just his looks.

Gu Jia smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Lin Yi. He'll definitely say he likes you."

Zhong Xiaoqin blushed slightly, but still asked happily, "Gu Gu, are you telling the truth?"

Gu Jia replied with absolute certainty, "Yes."

Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Gu Jia and asked, "But Manny said that Brother Yi likes you."

Gu Jia smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "You're wrong, Xiaoqin. Lin Yi likes you the most."

Zhong Xiaoqin asked in surprise, "Really?"

"real."

Zhong Xiaoqin's beautiful eyes instantly curved into crescent moons with a smile.

Gu Jia used to be very confident, thinking that Lin Yi liked her the most.

But it wasn't until she heard Zhong Xiaoqin's words that Gu Jia suddenly realized what was going on.

It turns out that Lin Yi's favorite type of girl is Zhong Xiaoqin.

They ask for nothing in return, only that they like it.

Their relationship was free of any self-interest.

But she and Wang Manni are different. They thought a lot before choosing Lin Yi, such as weighing the pros and cons.

Their being together inherently carries a sense of exchange.

But Zhong Xiaoqin is different; she only likes Lin Yi and asks for nothing else.

Therefore, it's understandable that Lin Yi prefers girls like this.

Their motives for getting close to Lin Yi were not pure to begin with.

Since that's the case, don't blame Lin Yi for overthinking it.

Zhong Xiaoqin smiled and said, "Gu Gu, thank you for telling me all this."

Gu Jia smiled and said, "You're welcome."

Upon learning that Yi-gege liked her the most, Zhong Xiaoqin couldn't stop giggling.

In her opinion, there couldn't be better news.

……

After parting ways with Zhong Xiaoqin, Gu Jia returned to the top floor of the Junyue Mansion.

Seeing Gu Jia come in, and noticing that her expression was not good, Wang Manni couldn't help but feel worried.

Wang Manni asked anxiously, "Gu Gu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Gu Jia shook her head and said, "Xiaoqin said she likes Lin Yi."

Wang Manni raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, "Really? We just started! How did you know?"
