The person who came was Gu Zechuan’s friend, Jiang Yuzhou.

He was also the man who said that he felt a little sympathetic to Ruan Chutang at the drinking party that night.

Having known each other for almost three years, Ruan Chutang has always had a good impression of Jiang Yuzhou.

She replied, "Come to buy something."

Jiang Yuzhou glanced at the bag in her hand and asked, "Is this a gift for Gu Zechuan?"

Ruan Chutang thought it was too troublesome to explain, so he simply nodded and admitted it.

"This brand of watches is not cheap. The most basic style costs five figures. You don't need to give such an expensive gift. Gu Zechuan..."

He doesn't deserve it.

He even admitted that he couldn't let go of Chen Wan and only treated Ruan Chutang as a substitute.

Last night, he even abandoned Ruan Chutang and left in front of so many people, holding Chen Wan's hand.

After Gu Zechuan and Chen Wan left the birthday party, they went to the hotel and indulged themselves all night. Ruan Chutang didn't know about this, but he knew it very well.

They have a small group of friends in the same circle.

Ruan Chutang had been dating Gu Zechuan for three years but had never been able to join this group. As soon as Chen Wan returned to China, Gu Zechuan pulled her in.

This afternoon, Chen Wan inexplicably posted a photo of the two of them in bed in the group, and asked Gu Zechuan to keep it as a souvenir.

But it was withdrawn less than a minute after it was sent, saying it was sent to the wrong person.

He happened to see it at that time and wanted to say something, but he held it back in the end. It was none of his business anyway, so it was better to have less trouble than more.

When Jiang Yuzhou thought about this, he wanted to persuade Ruan Chutang to let go and tell her the truth, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he changed his mind.

"Gu Zechuan doesn't need these things. You don't need to spend several months' salary to buy such an expensive gift for him."

After all, Gu Zechuan was his good brother and they had been friends for more than ten years, but he still couldn't say those words.

He also wanted to tell Ruan Chutang that maybe Gu Zechuan wouldn't even look down on the gift you spent several months' salary on.

These words were too hurtful, and Jiang Yuzhou couldn't bear to say them out loud.

Ruan Chutang knew that Gu Zechuan was not worthy of her, and the gift was not bought for him. She nodded and smiled perfunctorily, "Okay, I won't do it next time."

Ruan Chutang chatted with Jiang Yuzhou for a while and then they parted ways.

Jiang Yuzhou looked at Ruan Chutang's back and sighed slowly.

"Alas, such a good girl, how could she be harmed by Gu Zechuan?"

He opened WeChat and couldn't help but send a message to persuade Gu Zechuan.

[Brother, your girlfriend is really nice. I just saw her buying you a watch. It's worth tens of thousands of dollars, so she must have spent several months' salary on it. Cherish it while you can.]

Gu Zechuan was having dinner with Chen Wan when he received this message.

All the anger I had in my heart disappeared in an instant after seeing this news.

His expression gradually softened.

She also knew that she had done something wrong today and was thinking of buying a gift to admit her mistake. In that case, he should give her a way out.

When the time comes, accept her gift, apologize to her, say that your tone was not very nice, and ask her not to take it to heart, and then make up some nice words to coax her, Ruan Chutang will definitely appreciate it.

"Zechuan, what's wrong? Whose news is this?" asked Chen Wan, who was sitting opposite.

Gu Zechuan put away his phone and said calmly, "Nothing."

Chen Wan didn't ask any more questions.

Not long after, Gu Zechuan got up to go to the bathroom. Chen Wan took his mobile phone which was on the table. She had seen him enter the password before, and it was easy to remember, it was his birthday.

Chen Wan quickly entered the password and opened WeChat.

She first looked at Ruan Chutang's dialog box. The chat content was still a week ago. Ruan Chutang asked him if he wanted to go out for a trip together during the National Day holiday. She finally had a holiday and wanted to go out.

She also shared some guides to tourist attractions that she really wanted to visit.

Gu Zechuan replied five hours later, "There are so many eleven people, what's fun in that?", and then Ruan Chutang never sent another message.

Chen Wan casually glanced at the tourist attractions, a hint of ridicule flashing in her eyes.

It seems that their relationship of three years is not that good, Gu Zechuan is not even willing to accompany her on a trip.

There was nothing unusual in Ruan Chutang's WeChat message. Chen Wan exited the dialog box and flipped through it casually, and saw Jiang Yuzhou's message.

Chen Wan sneered, recalling Ruan Chutang's indifferent expression during their previous two encounters, and sneered in her heart.

I thought Ruan Chutang was about to let go, but I didn't expect her to try to buy gifts, admit her mistake, and think about reconciling with Gu Zechuan.

Chen Wan exited WeChat, turned off the screen, put Gu Zechuan's phone back in its place, took out her own phone and called Gu Zechuan's mother, Ms. Meng Yaqin.

"Hey, Aunt Meng, I just went with Zechuan to look at rings and ran into his girlfriend. The girl was trying on the ring in the store and trying to force a marriage..."

……

Ruan Chutang returned to the villa with the gifts and continued packing.

She put the gift for Jiang Shixu into the suitcase, but as she packed it, Jiang Shixu's cold and handsome face appeared in her mind.

She and Jiang Shixu had known each other for a long time.

The two old houses are in the same villa area, only two or three hundred meters apart. They often met each other when they were children.

Jiang Shixu was four years older than her. The first time she met him was in the Jiang family's old house.

Ruan's father and mother took her to visit the Jiang family. At that time, she was only ten years old and still a child who had not grown up, while Jiang Shixu had grown into the appearance of the male protagonist in a youth campus idol drama.

Chu Tang only remembers being struck by Jiang Shixu's beauty the first time he saw her.

His face was handsome and aggressive, but his eyes were as cold as ice and snow in winter.

Her mother asked her to call someone, and she obediently shouted "Brother Shixu".

In my memory, Jiang Shixu was still cold and replied with a dry "Hello" in a bland manner.

At that time, she thought that this brother must be difficult to get along with.

This misunderstanding persisted for several years.

Later, when she was in high school, her math grades were not good. Mrs. Jiang heard about it from somewhere and said to Ruan Shaodong with a smile, "Let our family, Shixu, give Tangtang some tutoring. His best subject in high school was math. He scored over 140 on the math score for the college entrance exam!"

By that time, her mother had passed away, and Ruan Chutang's personality was very different from when she was a child.

In five years, Ruan Chutang grew from a carefree and carefree child into a silent and rebellious girl.

"I don't need you to teach me." This was the first sentence she said to Jiang Shixu after he entered the door.

Jiang Shixu was 21 years old at that time. He was tall and slender, estimated to be over 1.85 meters tall. He wore a simple white short-sleeved shirt and dark gray jeans. His slightly parted hairstyle made him look a bit more youthful.

"But I want to teach." This was his answer, his voice full of laughter and a bit of nonchalance.

Chu Tang thought Jiang Shixu must be strict and harsh.

In fact, after looking at her math test paper, Jiang Shixu just frowned, and then began to patiently explain the questions to her.

As he went through the wrong questions one by one, there wasn't even a trace of impatience between Jiang Shixu's eyebrows.

His voice was low and pleasant, with a hint of gravel. As Chu Tang listened, he felt that math was not so annoying anymore.

Some questions have two or three ways to solve them, and Jiang Shixu would explain them to her one by one.

Ruan Chutang's eyes gradually changed from resistance and disdain at first to admiration and respect.

"Wow, Jiang Shixu, you're amazing. You still remember it so clearly even after graduating from high school for so many years?"

"I don't remember everything. I looked at the textbook before coming here."

After he finished speaking, he paused and gently tapped her head with a pen, "Don't be disrespectful. Remember to call me Brother Shixu from now on."

In the summer of Ruan Chutang's second year of high school, Jiang Shixu gave her two months of extra lessons.

At that time, Jiang Shixu was a junior at Jiangcheng University. He did not go out to play for almost the entire summer vacation. Every day he was either explaining questions to Ruan Chutang or helping her check test papers and correct homework.

The summer vacation for high school students is very short. She started school while Jiang Shixu was still on vacation.

Every day when Ruan Chutang came home from school, she would see Jiang Shixu sitting on the sofa in her living room, waiting to tutor her.

Thanks to Jiang Shixu, her math scores improved by leaps and bounds, soaring from failing to 130.

Ruan Chutang performed very well in other subjects, and without mathematics holding her back, she successfully passed the college entrance examination and was admitted to Jiangcheng University, becoming Jiang Shixu's junior.

At that time, Chu Tang only thought that Jiang Shixu was a particularly good brother next door.

She respected him and liked him, but there was not the slightest bit of love between men and women.

So when her father asked her to marry into the Jiang family and marry Jiang Shixu, she couldn't accept it.

She only regards Jiang Shixu as her brother. How can a sister marry her brother?

As she was reminiscing, the bedroom door was pushed open. Gu Zechuan stood by the door and looked down at Ruan Chutang, "Have you packed everything?"

"Well, it's almost there."

Gu Zechuan leaned against the door frame, "Chu Tang, do you have something to say to me?"
