The handsome guy next door loves to flirt.
Chapter 135 Was it too late to come back?
"Yun Shu, come here!" Gu Cheng called Yun Shu over as soon as he saw her return home. "This is Huai Nan. Do you remember how you two played together when you were little?"
As soon as Yun Shu walked over, Gu Cheng introduced her to someone.
Upon hearing this, Yun Shu immediately looked cautiously at the man. He was tall and elegant, especially with a perfectly curved lip that seemed to always be smiling. This smile was gentle and natural, reflecting his good upbringing. Dressed in a well-fitting white casual suit, he exuded a friendly and warm aura, instantly making a good impression.
However, Yun Shu immediately recognized her. Even though she hadn't looked closely yesterday, she recognized her immediately—it was the man she'd met yesterday morning. This man hadn't appeared at all during their engagement in her past life. She'd only seen him a few times when she visited the Gu family as a child, and even after their engagement was broken off, she'd only seen him from afar. But he hadn't seen her. The crucial point was that Sheng Huainan used to be a chubby little boy with short legs and arms; it was unbelievable that he'd grown into such a handsome man, though not as ridiculously handsome as Chen Mingyuan.
"Hey...it's you!" Sheng Huainan was a little surprised when he saw Yun Shu. What a coincidence! This girl was the one who fell to the ground yesterday, and the way she walked looked a little strange.
"You... Hello!" Facing this man who had helped her before, and who was now so approachable, Yun Shu couldn't seem to dislike him, especially if he was the one who had abandoned her fiancé.
After Yun Shu sat down, Gu Cheng saw that Yun Shu did not reject Huai Nan, so his initial worries subsided.
"Yun Shu, Huai Nan just got back the day before yesterday. He's now a graduate of a prestigious university and works as an interior designer at a well-known multinational company abroad." After saying that, she turned to Huai Nan and asked, "Huai Nan, you won't be going abroad again this time, will you?"
"Not necessarily. I'm just going back to the subsidiary for a while. It depends on the head office's arrangements." Sheng Huainan now works for a Chinese-owned multinational corporation that is among the Fortune Global 500. This time, his family urged him to come back, so the company sent him back to work at the subsidiary in China.
"Huainan is still very humble. He's successful in his career, but the only thing he hasn't settled down is his marriage." Gu Cheng's words were pointed. Yun Shu and Huainan both understood what he meant. Huainan glanced at Yun Shu and saw that she was still sitting there as usual, without any change in her expression. He understood what was wrong with her and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Uncle, I have something to do. Let's talk another day." It was a little after five o'clock, and he was just about to go out to pick up his mother, who had gone out to spend money recklessly.
“Sure, our two houses are so close, both in the same compound. Come over and visit when you have time,” Gu Cheng said warmly, rarely showing such politeness to anyone.
"Yes, um... Yun Shu, this is my business card." It had his phone number and workplace on it. Huai Nan handed it to Yun Shu, who was still somewhat dazed and clearly out of sorts.
"Ah...oh...okay, are you leaving? Take care!" Yun Shu took the business card. She had actually been thinking about how to handle the upcoming engagement between the two families.
"Yun Shu, escort Huai Nan down." Gu Cheng was a little displeased to see Yun Shu standing there blankly. This child was usually quite quick-witted, but now she was just staring blankly.
Yun Shu rolled her eyes after hearing this. The two families live so close by, and she still has to give her a ride? What a hassle! Can't you see that her foot injury hasn't healed yet? She reluctantly stood up.
Huai Nan was about to say no, but seeing that Gu Cheng's expression wasn't very good, and fearing that Yun Shu wouldn't see him off and that he would be unhappy and Yun Shu would be scolded, he didn't refuse.
Just as the two stepped out of the Gu family's gate, Yun Huan and Yun Le returned and walked towards them after getting out of the car.
However, Huainan wasn't familiar with them and didn't greet them. When Yunle saw Yunshu and then Huainan, her eyes lit up, but she quickly concealed it and called out "Sister," while Yunhuan walked past them expressionlessly.
Yun Shu nodded slightly.
After Yun Shu and Huai Nan had walked a distance, Huai Nan said, "Yun Shu, I never imagined you would become like this. I didn't even recognize you the day before yesterday."
Yun Shu smiled and said, "Girls change a lot as they grow up. I never knew you would become like this. You used to be the little chubby boy in the compound." She sighed. He had changed a lot, and he had become much more cheerful and sunny. It was very comfortable to talk to him, like... a family feeling. She just didn't know why he broke off the engagement with her in her previous life. She guessed it was because she had been defiled and lost her virginity, and he was not much closer to her than her.
"Hehe! That's true, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years." Huai Nan said embarrassedly. When he was a child, his mother fed him so much that he was too fat. He still doesn't dare to look at his childhood photos.
"Do you...have a girlfriend?" Yun Shu finally mustered the courage to ask.
"No, so my mother tricked me into coming back." Huai Nan said with a helpless expression. He was twenty-five years old this year, but no one would feel offended by what he said. In fact, he looked two or three years younger than he actually was.
"Really... But... I already have a boyfriend." Yun Shu looked up at him and said cautiously. She wondered if Huai Nan would still have the same bad temper as when he was a child.
After a long while, Huainan said disappointedly and sadly, "Was I too late?"
"No... because when I'm with you, it's still like when we were kids, I treat you like family... like my older brother."
"Brother, Brother Huainan, hehe! Yunshu, you're so funny!" Huainan looked at the little girl in front of him. From the moment he learned that she was Yunshu, his idea of not wanting to get married changed. Maybe being with Yunshu wouldn't be bad. But Yunshu was saying that she had a boyfriend. Was she rejecting him? She must know that they were engaged.
"I...don't want to..." Yun Shu felt guilty and didn't dare to refuse him directly. The two had only met a few times when they were young, and she had forgotten about him after they grew up. Suddenly asking her to marry him felt absurd, especially since she already had Ming Kun and couldn't accept him anymore.
“It’s okay, we can spend some time together before you make a decision. I’ll stay in China for at least six months. As for marriage, we can discuss it later once you can accept me.” Huai Nan interrupted Yun Shu’s next words. So what if she has a boyfriend? They’re not married yet. These days, eighteen-year-old girls, especially those from abroad, are so open-minded that they’ve probably had several boyfriends by now.
It takes time for two people to get to know each other and adjust before they can determine who is more suitable for Yunshu.
