Quick Transmigration: The Charming Beauty Who Was Short-Lived and Alluring

Before Gu Huaizhi could react, Chu Yun's voice turned cold, "Chu Wenshu, what are you doing? Talk to me properly, who are you giving this attitude to?"

Chu Wenshu was slightly taken aback when he saw Chu Yun's reproachful gaze. Remembering Chu Yun's instructions not to be impolite, and considering that this was Chu Yun's room and Gu Huaizhi was Chu Yun's guest, he couldn't help but feel his face burning slightly. "I'm sorry."

"You shouldn't apologize to me." Chu Yun's face remained cold.

Chu Wenshu's lips tightened as he faced Gu Huaizhi and said reluctantly, "I misspoke, I'm sorry."

Gu Huaizhi didn't take it to heart. "It's alright. I know you've always been like this, so naturally you won't be angry."

This meant that he had a bad temper and was always verbally abusive. Chu Wenshu was so angry that his forehead throbbed, and he wished he could beat Gu Huaizhi to death, but he saw that Gu Huaizhi had a smiling face and was very amiable.

Therefore, Chu Wenshu could not retaliate and could only swallow his anger and resentment.

Chu Yun also figured it out. Although the two knew each other, their personalities clashed, and it was really not appropriate to continue talking. However, she was not good at mediating these matters, so she picked up her teacup and said, "Have some tea."

Upon hearing this, Gu Huaizhi and Chu Wenshu both picked up their teacups and drank the tea, whether they wanted to or not.

The three remained silent for a moment until the maid who brought the food stood outside the door and her crisp voice rang out: "Miss Wen, breakfast is ready."

Chu Yun put down her teacup. "I'll go take a look."

Chu Wenshu and Gu Huaizhi put down their cups at the same time, their gazes following Chu Yun. They saw her pause slightly at the door, and heard her surprised voice in their ears, "Young Master."

Not only was Chu Yun taken aback, but Gu Huaizhi and Chu Wenshu were also stunned for a moment.

The only one who remained composed was Xiao Qi'an outside the door. He smiled at Chu Yun, his eyes gentle, as if arriving at the young lady's door so early in the morning was not a matter of impoliteness. "Miss Wen, I have something to ask you. May I come in for a simple meal?"

Chu Yun snapped out of her daze, stepped aside, and said, "Please come in."

Xiao Qi'an's smile deepened as he wheeled himself into the house. His smile froze the moment he saw Chu Wenshu and Gu Huai.

Chu Wenshu squinted, staring at Xiao Qi'an as if he were an enemy.

Gu Huaizhi frowned slightly, then quickly forced a smile, looking at Xiao Qi'an with some confusion, "Why are you here?"

Xiao Qi'an's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice, "I have some things to discuss with Miss Wen, so I apologize for disturbing you. Why is Huai Zhi here?"

"I've come to deliver some things to A-Yun," Gu Huaizhi said with a smile.

"I see." Xiao Qi'an nodded, then turned his gaze to Chu Wenshu. "Why is Young Master Chu here as well?"

After waking up, Chu Wenshu met Xiao Qi'an and learned that he was the young master of Xiao Yue Manor. Although she disliked Xiao Qi'an's appearance, she withdrew her disgusted and cold gaze and said, "Sister Wen sent me."

After exchanging pleasantries, Chu Yun stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Since we're all here by chance, let's all stay and have breakfast."

After saying that, she picked up two boxes from the table and said, "I'll tidy things up first." Then she raised her voice and said, "Xiaodie, come in and set the table."

Xiao Qi'an looked at the familiar box, his eyes darkening slightly. He thought to himself: The box from Fukanglou must contain candied fruit, as expected. It seems he didn't think much of it that day.

As for the other box, judging from its shape and recalling the hairpin that suddenly appeared in Chu Yun's hair, Xiao Qi'an could guess what it was. He didn't show it on his face, but his eyes became even more profound. He was determined to bring up that matter with Chu Yun as soon as possible.

Seeing that Xiao Qi'an was lost in thought, Gu Huaizhi remained silent and quietly drank his tea.

Chu Wenshu glanced at Xiao Qi'an and then at Gu Huaizhi, feeling increasingly choked up. Sister Wen had only called him, yet these two had to interfere. How infuriating!

The three had different thoughts. Xiao Die, who was setting out the meal, was completely unaware of this. After setting out the meal, she looked at Xiao Qi'an somewhat awkwardly and said, "Young Master... there are only two bowls of porridge."

Breakfast at Xiaoyue Manor is mainly light, consisting mostly of white porridge with a few appetizers. Yesterday, Xiao Qi'an heard from Xiao Die that a strange man had appeared in Chu Yun's room. Worried, he came here specifically to check on Chu Yun. Guessing that Chu Yun wouldn't turn him away, he instructed Xiao Die to double the amount of food. But no matter how much he increased it, it still wasn't enough for four people.

The scene instantly became awkward, especially the expressions of Chu Wenshu and Gu Huaizhi, who were visibly stiff. Xiao Die and Xiao Qi'an arrived together, and it was obvious who the extra bowl of porridge was for. Now it seemed that Xiao Qi'an had come later and taken the lead, while the two of them were the ones who were superfluous.

Xiao Qi'an said to Xiao Die, "Go to the kitchen and get two more breakfasts. Go quickly and come back soon."

Chu Yun's voice followed, "I'll go."

All eyes turned to Chu Yun, who smiled and said, "The kitchen is busy. Xiao Die has other errands to run after delivering breakfast, so she can't keep us occupied. I also have something to do, so I'll just go to the kitchen."

Chu Yun's words were reasonable and no one objected. Then she said, "Chu Wenshu, you're coming with me."

Chu Wenshu, whose name was called, was taken aback at first, then pointed to himself, "Me?"

He was both surprised and delighted, never expecting that Chu Yun would choose him from among the three.

"Of course it's you. Didn't you make chicken soup? It should be ready by now. If you don't go get it, it'll boil dry!" Chu Yun replied.

This reason made Chu Wenshu almost reveal his smugness, and he looked at Chu Yun angrily, "You want to give them my soup?"

Chu Yun avoided answering, a hint of anger creeping in. "Are you going or not? If not, I'll go by myself."

Chu Wenshu pursed his lips, then quickly stood up. "I'll go."

Chu Yun then calmed down and said to Gu Huaizhi and Xiao Qi'an, "Young Master Gu, Young Master, I'll be right back."

They both smiled and said, "Okay."

Chu Yun led Xiao Die and Chu Wenshu out the door.

"Xiaodie, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. You don't need to follow me." Chu Yun said to Xiaodie as soon as they stepped out the door.

After Xiaodie left, Chu Yun looked at Chu Wenshu, whose complexion was still not good, and said, "You made soup so that people would drink it. The two of us can't finish it. Young Master Gu and the young master are old acquaintances of yours. Can't they even have a sip of your soup?"

"It's not that I can't, it's just that I cooked this soup for you and I don't want anyone else to drink it," Chu Wenshu said, sounding aggrieved.

Chu Yun shook her head helplessly, “You have no memory of anything and you live in the residence of Young Master Xiao. Only Young Master Gu knows the clues to your return home, but you have not given them a good look. Although they are not narrow-minded people and will not hold it against you, you still have to consider their feelings. Today, use this chicken soup to test the waters and ease the tension.”

Chu Yun kept saying she was thinking of him, and Chu Wenshu wasn't stupid. His displeasure had long been soothed by Chu Yun's words, and he happily followed behind her, saying, "Thank you so much, Sister Wen, for thinking of me."

Meanwhile, the two, who were not narrow-minded, sat in the room, probing each other, and the undercurrents were obvious.
