After all, when Xu Wan was pursuing Gu Huaizhi, they had met several times, and Gu Huaizhi was also very cold to her.

So, they tacitly agreed not to mention his marriage, but they didn't expect that he would actually bring it up himself.

The smile on Fu Shiyue's face froze, and the fingers holding the wine glass trembled slightly.

"It's just a couple of drinks among friends. Why is sister-in-law so strict?" Le Jing raised an eyebrow and said.

He, who was always stern, showed a helpless expression: "She doesn't care about me, but she doesn't like the smell of alcohol. I'm afraid that I will offend her when I go back."

"I didn't expect that things would be different after getting married! I feel so much like a husband now!" Someone laughed immediately.

After all, it's not uncommon for Gu Huaizhi to be so down-to-earth.

"Hey! I remember when your wife was courting you, you didn't seem to like her very much?" The gossiper started to get close to her face, "Why are you so timid when drinking now?"

Gu Huaizhi glanced at him calmly, and raised his thin lips slightly: "You will know when you get married."

"Okay, I know you're married!" Gong Yucheng said unhappily.

What? His wife doesn't like him drinking. How could he say such a thing?

"Then why don't you bring your sister-in-law here so that everyone can get to know each other." Le Jing said with a smile.

He was also very surprised, thinking that Ah Huai married Xu Wan because of pressure from his family, but he didn't expect that he seemed to really like her.

"She is quite busy. I will definitely come back next time if there is a chance." Gu Huaizhi explained calmly.

"Is she busier than you?" Fu Shiya asked in confusion.

"Yeah." Gu Huaizhi nodded and didn't say much.

"Then you can use water instead of wine. Come on, cheers!" Everyone raised their glasses with smiles on their faces.

Fu Shiyue drank the wine in her hand, "Ahem——"

She covered her chest and coughed twice. The wine was a bit choking and she choked.

"Drink slowly. You don't have to finish the toast." said Le Jing.

Fu Shiyue's expression returned to normal. She waved her hands and said, "I'm fine. It's just that I haven't drunk so much in a long time."

Her throat smelled of wine and a hint of bitterness, and her eyes couldn't help but fall on Gu Huaizhi.

It turns out that he was not without love, but he gave his love to others.

To... the love rival whom she had never taken seriously.

After three rounds of drinks, everyone was tipsy and still talking about interesting things that happened in college.

"Shiyue, when can you and Huaizhi perform four-hand piano duet for everyone again? That ensemble amazed the whole school back then, and I still remember it vividly." A girl said in admiration.

"Shiyue is now a world-class pianist. Can you listen to the piano whenever you want?"

Fu Shiyue just smiled, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her eyes were a little drunk: "Don't tease me, compared to the master, I am not qualified to be considered a world-class pianist. If you want to listen, you can listen anytime, if Ah Huai is willing."

There is a piano not far away.

Gu Huaizhi looked calm: "Sorry, I haven't played the piano for a long time."

His rejection was expected, but still disappointing.

"Ahuai, do you remember what happened when we were practicing together?" Fu Shiyue supported her chin and looked at him with burning eyes, as if she wanted to reconcile the person in front of her with the person back then.

"I don't quite remember." Still in a cold tone.

"But I remember." Fu Shiyue said to herself, "It suddenly rained heavily that night, and we were trapped in the piano classroom. There was a power outage. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do."

Gu Huaizhi just nodded calmly, "Really? I don't remember."

"Then what do you remember?" Fu Shiyue's eyes suddenly turned red, staring at him intently, "Ahuai, what do you remember?"

This subtle atmosphere made everyone present look at each other in surprise. It turned out that the goddess could not forget her old love for him.

Gu Huaizhi: "You've drunk too much."

"What do you remember?" She kept repeating the question.

"Remember I have to go home early, otherwise my wife will be angry." Gu Huaizhi said sincerely.

"Pfft——" Le Jing laughed out loud, "Ahuai, I didn't realize you have the potential to be a wife slave."

Gu Huaizhi: "You'll know when you get married."

Le Jing: “…” The person in front of him felt strange to him.

Of course, this strangeness only existed when he mentioned his wife.

"That's enough. She doesn't care about you and you're still angry. Stop using her as a shield." Gong Yucheng really couldn't stand it anymore.

Those netizens thought that they had a happy marriage, but that was just based on their imagination. Now Gu Huaizhi himself was addicted to creating illusions for himself and was really happy.

Just a few days ago, I pulled him aside and asked him what to do if his wife didn't love him, and now he's installing it.

The most annoying pretender!

Of course, Gong Yucheng received a bone-chilling look. If looks could kill, he would have been dead.

After hearing what Gong Yucheng said, everyone looked at Gu Huaizhi with suspicion.

"She'll pick me up later." Gu Huai said word by word.

"Hmmmm?" Gong Yucheng made a strange, atavistic sound.

Gu Huaizhi continued his death stare: "I think you are also drunk."

"Okay! I just happen to want to see your wife." Fu Shiyue said with a smile.

The man didn't say anything else, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and he kept rubbing the phone in his hand.

Everyone started chatting again.

He stood up, went to the balcony in the corner, dialed Xu Wan's number, and waited for a long time before the call was connected.

"Hello?" A female voice came from the phone.

"Where are you now?" he asked in a low voice.

"I'm working overtime at the company! What's wrong?" Xu Wan replied tiredly.

Gu Huaizhi lowered his eyes and opened his mouth, but still said nothing.

"Hello?" After a long time without a response, Xu Wan asked in confusion, "Gu Huaizhi?"

Gu Huaizhi said with difficulty: "I'm drunk, can you come pick me up?"

"Where is Lin Shu?" Xu Wan asked puzzledly.

After all, Assistant Lin is omnipotent. When will Gu Huaizhi ever need her help?

"He's already off work."

"Oh, he's off work, and you asked someone who's still at work to pick you up?" The word "off work" hit Xu Wan's sore spot.

After working overtime, I can’t bear to hear the word “get off work”.

Gu Huaizhi suddenly didn't dare to speak.

"Why didn't you ask the driver to pick you up after drinking?" Xu Wan softened her tone, "Yes! Just ask the driver to pick you up!"

Gu Huaizhi: "...The driver is on leave today."

"What a coincidence?"

"Ah."

"How long do you have to finish? Let me see if it's too late." Xu Wan finally gave in. After all, Gu Huaizhi rarely asked her for help.

"About half an hour, don't worry."

"You don't sound like you're drunk!" Xu Wan said suspiciously.

"Well, the wine I drank today had a strong aftereffect, so..." He remained calm.
