Oops! The sickly Mr. Gu fainted again

"What? Our Yaoyao can lie too?" Ji Yan looked at her with a smile, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.

"Mr. Gu? Why didn't you say you were with me?" He looked at Ye Xingyao with interest, as if he was very proud of what Ye Xingyao had just said to the person on the other end of the phone that she was having dinner with her classmates near the school.

"I...was afraid he would think too much..." Ye Xingyao spoke a little embarrassedly, with a bit of panic in her eyes.

"Oh? I'm someone who can make Mr. Gu think about me more. It seems that I still have some weight in Yaoyao's eyes."

Ji Yan was very good at finding a reason to talk, and his words made Ye Xingyao blush instantly. The smile on his face became more obvious, and he looked straight at Ye Xingyao, as if he wanted to get some information from her expression.

"No, I just don't want him to think too much..." Ye Xingyao repeated with her head down, as if she didn't want to continue this topic.

An hour later, the negotiations between Gu Yuchen and Mr. Snyder went smoothly, and the two men reached an agreement on the strategic goals for the company's future development.

Mr. Snyder also expressed his gratitude to Mr. Gu for setting up the tea garden, saying that he was very happy to taste such authentic flavors in China. After the two shook hands, Gu Yuchen sent Mr. Snyder to the parking lot.

He turned around and looked in the other direction. Ji Yan and Ye Xingyao were still there, eating.

His eyes suddenly turned colder, and his fingers clenched unconsciously. He then took a quick glance and returned to the main hall to sort out the contract documents.

"Yaoyao, some of Gu Yuchen's businesses are quite dangerous. The people around him are also quite dangerous. You are too naive, I'm afraid you will get hurt around him. You don't understand him." Ji Yan brought up this sentence out of the blue while eating snacks.

Ye Xingyao couldn't help but start to feel confused.

"Dangerous business? What business?" Her eyes became more serious, and a little strange.

Why did Ji Yan tell her twice that Gu Yuchen was dangerous and that she would get hurt if she was around him?

Ye Xingyao gradually felt a little uneasy. Ji Yan was right. She really didn't understand a lot of things about Gu Yuchen. Compared with Gu Yuchen, she knew Ji Yan better, who grew up with her and went to school with her every day.

Thinking about this, Ye Xingyao suddenly felt that she seemed to know nothing about Gu Yuchen. She didn't know about his past, what happened between him and Su Mo, what happened between him and Ji Jie, and she didn't even know why he was injured.

"It seems that he hasn't told you yet, so I'd better not tell you. If there is any, it wouldn't be nice if it came out of my mouth." Ji Yan smiled and picked up a piece of food for her, then lowered his head and kept silent.

Ji Yan's words aroused Ye Xingyao's curiosity and made her feel even more depressed. She frowned and asked seriously:

"Brother Ji Yan, what do you want to say?"

"It's nothing, Yaoyao, the food is getting cold, eat quickly." Ji Yan said as he picked up another dish for her, the tenderness in his eyes not diminishing at all.

Ye Xingyao felt uneasy when Ji Yan swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Ji Yan looked at her with his eyes curved, and after a long while, he slowly opened his mouth with a natural look:

"You probably don't know that he was injured three years ago." Ji Yan said this in a light tone, and he naturally picked up the chopsticks, picked up the food and put it into his mouth.

His movements were so natural and his tone was so light, but a solemn expression flashed deeply in his heart.

He still looked at Ye Xingyao with his eyes curved, but his originally clear eyes dimmed a little, as if some unbearable memories were attacking him.

"I know his heart was injured before. So what do you want to say?" Ye Xingyao vaguely felt that Ji Yan wanted to tell her something, but she also felt that Ji Yan was always hiding it.

She was a little confused about what Ji Yan was trying to do. But her sixth sense told her that Ji Yan seemed to want to give her some bad news.

She clearly realized that Ji Yan didn't want her to be with Gu Yuchen.

But this world is so unsatisfactory. When she loved Ji Yan, he went abroad. Now that Ji Yan has returned and expressed his feelings, she has fallen in love with another person.

Mixed emotions welled up in my mind.

"Oh? It seems that Mr. Gu really trusts you. He even told you something as private as the gunshot wound. After the incident happened, he kept it completely secret. No one around him except Jin Ran should know about it."

"Including his secretary Miss An, they all thought it was an ordinary accident and didn't know the real situation." Ji Yan paused meaningfully, observing Yaoyao's reaction.

"Gunshot wound?" Ye Xingyao suddenly felt her blood pressure soar.

Countless emotions flashed through her mind in an instant, surprise, disbelief, shock, fear, and terror.

But in the end, my brain was filled with an intense feeling of heartache.

He had been shot in the heart, and she couldn't imagine how urgent the situation was and how much pain he must have been in.

No wonder he refused to answer her question in the morning. It turned out to be a gunshot wound.

After the heartache, a feeling of fear suddenly came over her.

How could he be shot? Was there someone around him trying to frame him? Why was there always someone around him framing him? A strong sense of uneasiness enveloped her.

She was so surprised that she forgot to blink.

"Yaoyao, I won't say much more. Anyway, I just want to tell you that you know too little about Gu Yuchen. He is not just what you see. I am afraid that he will bring danger to you."

Ji Yan seemed to have said something, but also seemed to have said nothing.

While Yaoyao was standing there in a daze, he stood up, picked up her clothes from the hanger, walked behind her, bent down and prepared to put them on her.

Unexpectedly, a figure suddenly came from behind, and the arm that Ji Yan was about to put clothes on her was suddenly tightly grasped by a strong hand.

Then came that familiar voice:

"Mr. Ji, long time no see. I won't trouble you to take care of my girlfriend." After saying this, Gu Yuchen took Ye Xingyao's clothes back from Ji Yan. He stared at Ji Yan with sharp eyes, and with a wave of his arm, he put clothes on Ye Xingyao.

Ye Xingyao was suddenly frightened by the voice. She turned around suddenly and saw that Gu Yuchen really appeared here. Her brain stopped working for a short time.

She didn't expect that Gu Yuchen, who was in the hospital, would appear here, and even ran into Ji Yan and her having dinner. Her brain was stunned by the overwhelming amount of information.

She suddenly realized that she had just lied to Gu Yuchen and said that she was having dinner with her classmates. She began to panic unconsciously, and she subconsciously thought that Gu Yuchen must have discovered that she and Ji Yan were together at that time.

For a moment, Ye Xingyao was stunned by the chaotic scene. She suddenly didn't know how to explain to Gu Yuchen, and felt unable to face him.

"Also, don't worry, President Ji. I will protect my girlfriend and won't let her fall into danger."

Gu Yuchen's tone was stern, and his eyes were as sharp as ice. After he finished speaking, he took Ye Xingyao's hand, and with a cold and angry look in his eyes, he pulled her forward with big strides.

Ye Xingyao's wrist was hurt by Gu Yuchen's strong hand. Gu Yuchen's pace was very fast, and she staggered a few steps.

After several seconds, she was suddenly startled to find his palms were ice-cold.
