Everyone knows that the Gu and Xie families are engaged.

However, no one has ever seen Young Master Gu and Xie Yan together.

Even when the engagement was announced last time, Gu Qingyu didn't show up for the rest of the time. I heard that Xie Yan was the one who was pursuing him relentlessly.

The two finally met. Although Xie Yan's reputation wasn't great, she was indeed stunningly beautiful.

Everyone fell silent; for a moment, there was absolutely no sound.

Curious and gossipy eyes darted back and forth between the two, not wanting to miss a single detail.

Young Master Gu's expression froze, his pupils contracted, and his brows furrowed tightly!

A wicked smile seemed to be playing on his lips... wait, no, that's not right.

Why does the corner of your mouth seem to twitch slightly?

It's an illusion! It must be an illusion!

“…Who are you?”

The cold words were uttered from between his thin lips.

The next second, all eyes immediately shifted to Xie Yan.

Ha! What a huge joke!

You shamelessly approach them pretending to be an acquaintance, only to find out they don't even know you!

Jin Linna couldn't contain her smile, and she barely stopped making a sound.

"So there really are shameless people like this! What do you mean, 'long time no see'! They've never even seen you before!"

The people who had just come with them immediately huddled together and whispered among themselves.

Xie Yan has now become a complete laughing stock!

Despite being in the eye of the storm, Xie Yan's expression remained unchanged; she still maintained her dazzling smile.

step.

Two steps.

She stopped in front of the handsome man in a suit and ties, her beautiful eyes narrowing.

"you--"

"So you did come looking for me after all? I thought we were strangers now!"

The handsome man had a sinister look in his eyes and didn't care at all about the probing gazes of others.

He stared intently at Xie Yan, not blinking for a moment, "Why did you block me?"

?

? ?

???

Everyone present was stunned.

What do you mean?

What did Young Master Gu mean by that?

This sounds like a story about a fiancée giving the cold shoulder, the guy sulking, and now they've finally caught her and are questioning her?

No way! How dare Xie Yan block Young Master Gu?! That's Gu Qingyu!!!

Kim Linna, standing behind him, froze, feeling as if it were all unreal.

She could even detect a hint of grievance in Young Master Gu's tone!

Are you kidding me? How is this possible?

The person who was more confused than anyone else was Xie Yan.

what happened?

Could there be hidden storylines surrounding the original owner of this body?

That shouldn't be the case. Wasn't the original owner a classic cannon fodder female supporting character?

What's wrong with the male lead?

Xie Yan pursed her red lips tightly, and her fingers gripped the wine glass even tighter.

She raised an eyebrow, her eyes carrying a hint of provocation. Her unrealistically beautiful face now seemed somewhat aggressive as she probed.

"You know perfectly well why I blocked you."

Upon hearing this, Young Master Gu's brow twitched noticeably.

Everyone was already excited!

This is no longer a matter of entertainment; there's a serious problem!

Young Master Gu has actually been blocked!

Young Master Gu did not answer Xie Yan's question. He frowned and looked around at the growing crowd, his eyes darkening.

Without hesitation, he grabbed Xie Yan's fair wrist and turned to leave!

The sight of a tall, handsome man walking together with a woman in a flowing red dress was absolutely stunning.

In just a few seconds, the two had disappeared from everyone's sight.

The atmosphere only became truly exciting after they disappeared!

"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!! Didn't they just get engaged recently?! Why does Young Master Gu seem to care so much about Xie Yan?!"

"I never imagined that Xie Yan would block Young Master Gu! I always heard that Xie Yan was relentlessly pursuing him!"

"Me too! When I heard Young Master Gu ask you who you were, I thought Xie Yan was going to lose face big time this time!"

The discussion at the scene was deafening.

Wen Yutong's face couldn't remain unpleasant.

how come?

Xie Yan was clearly angry at home not long ago because Gu Dashao blocked her, how come the situation has completely changed in the blink of an eye?

Who is Gu Qingyu? He's always been a man who doesn't get close to women, yet he actually pulled Xie Yan into the private room!

What are they up to?!

Xie Yan could only chuckle at that moment.

What else can we do?

Just two minutes ago, Young Master Gu was chatting and laughing with everyone in the lobby, looking very respectable in his suit and tie.

As soon as he entered the private room and closed the door, he turned around and knelt down with a "plop".

Young Master Gu clung to Xie Yan's leg, howling at the top of his lungs.

They recognized each other with passion.

"God!!! You still love me!!! I finally got to see my sister!!!"

"Sister!!!! It's me, Xie Qingyu!!!! I'm your own brother!! Your family—!!!!"

"You have no idea what I've been through these past few days!!! I've been treated worse than an animal!!! I'm living a life worse than death!!!"

"Sister!! Sister!!! Sister!!!! My sister!!!"

"Awooo!!!! Ahhhhhh!!! Awooooo—!! Ahh ...

Xie Qingyu wanted to howl and cry, and the more he cried, the more he wanted to howl.

The grievances he suffered during this period kept replaying in his mind, making him increasingly unable to control himself.

The deafening sound made Xie Yan's chest heave more and more heavily with each breath.

I endured it all! I endured it all!

Gan! !

I can't take it anymore!!!

A glass of cold wine was splashed on Xie Qingyu's face.

Xie Yan's face was cold, her beautiful, icy eyes filled with authority. "Have you cried enough? Let go of my leg! Don't wipe your snot on my skirt!"

Xie Qingyu's handsome face was completely wet, and his bangs were also wet and stuck to his forehead, making him look like a pitiful, wet little dog.

His eyes were red, and he smacked his lips.

Xie Yan just spilled a lot of her wine into his mouth.

Xie Qingyu sniffed. "Sis, your wine tastes better than mine. It's sweet. Where did you get it?"

He wasn't angry at being splashed with wine; after all, he had knelt on a washboard before, so what was this?

It's just a little sweet talk, how can it not be considered his sister giving him a little treat?

What a wonderful older sister!

Xie Yan's fist hardened once again!

Damn it, she wouldn't even dare to think about it!

This domineering CEO male lead is actually her idiot younger brother?!

At this moment, his idiotic appearance is nothing like that of a male protagonist!

What time is it?! Still asking about alcohol?!

Xie Yan had imagined many touching scenes of the siblings recognizing each other, but she never expected that Xie Qingyu's commotion would make her want to punch him as soon as they met.

Relying on her unparalleled physical strength, Xie Yan grabbed Xie Qingyu's suit tie and pulled him up from the ground.

"How did you recognize me?"

Xie Qingyu smiled sheepishly, "Sis, I was watching the live stream when you were swearing a few days ago, it felt so familiar."

Xie Yan: ...

She never imagined that her cursing would have the function of recognizing relatives.

"...So what's your situation now?"

Xie Yan's face was seven or eight parts similar to Xie Qingyu's original face. At this moment, with her sullen face and cold voice, Xie Qingyu felt extremely close to her.

There was a hint of suppression from their bloodline beneath the warmth, and Xie Yan's cold expression made him inexplicably a little intimidated.

However, Xie Qingyu's situation is different; his current appearance has absolutely no connection to his original one.

He used to be quite handsome, but he was the rebellious type.

Back in the day, he saved up his pocket money to learn the Five Elements Stance and bleached his hair white, only to be chased and hacked by Xie Yan for eight blocks.

Now, ignoring his disheveled state, Young Master Gu's appearance is exactly that of a domineering CEO.

Long arms, wasp waist, and long legs.

Sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, and a chiseled face.

He's the type of mature man.

Xie Qingyu went to the bathroom to wash his face, then sat obediently on the sofa and told Xie Yan about what had happened since he transmigrated.

"Sis, I don't know how tiring it is to work now. Being a male lead is really tough! I'm busy until 2 a.m. every day before I can go to sleep!"

"You have no idea! I don't even have time to play games or watch anime! And there are so many anime series that don't exist in this world! It's different from where we are!"

"My Gojo Satoru and Anya... no!"

Having finally seen his family, Xie Qingyu completely relaxed and chattered on and on.

Xie Yan sat quietly to the side, listening without interrupting.

"By the way, sis, how did you get here? Were you in a car accident too?"

"Yes, it crashed into your bus."

"Holy crap! What a coincidence! We were in the same car accident? That's too much of a coincidence!" Xie Qingyu exclaimed again, marveling at how fate had ordained them.

He and his sister are destined to be family!

The air conditioning in the private room wasn't on, and Xie Yan was a little thirsty, but she had just splashed the fruit wine from her glass on someone.

Having already learned to read people's expressions, Xie Qingyu ran to the water dispenser without saying a word, got a glass of water, and came back with bright eyes.

"Dear sister, please have some water!"

The man, dressed in a suit and looking very serious, was now behaving like a servant, which finally made Xie Yan laugh.

Iron-headed fool is indeed iron-headed fool wherever he goes.

The system then issued a notification that the task of being asked "Who are you?" had been completed, and after deducting the system's share of the 2,000 points, you would receive 1600 points.

She looked up at Xie Qingyu and saw that he also had a big smile on his face. "Mission accomplished."

So all that happened outside just now was an act, they were both doing a mission.

Xie Qingyu said some other things outside besides the mission keywords, but it seems that they had no impact.

The system's judgment is very rigid; it only says what needs to be said, and seems unable to react to anything else.

That would be easy.

A smile bloomed on Xie Yan's beautiful face. Now that they were family, Xie Qingyu would be her tool for boosting her score.

Wouldn't that make her feel incredibly good?

The siblings chatted for a few more minutes, and Xie Yan suddenly remembered something, so she casually mentioned Shen Yan.

Speaking of this, Xie Qingyu got even more excited.

"He's really strange! A lot of the plot is different from what I've seen before!"

Xie Qingyu recounted all the changes that had occurred to Shen Yan, including his name change, as if pouring out beans.

"Changed the name? What did you change it to?" Xie Yan asked curiously.

"It's a homophone but a different character. Shen Yan, the 'Yan' in 'River clear and sea calm,' I looked it up and it seems to mean 'sunny.' He's quite good at changing it."

Xie Yan was stunned.

She made up that name on the spot that day, just to cheer up the little villain.

For Xie Yan, it feels like this happened just yesterday.

After being coaxed just once, Shen Yan actually changed her name.

"...Sister?" Xie Qingyu waved his hand in front of Xie Yan's face. "Did you hear what I just said?"

Xie Yan snapped out of her daze. "Hmm?"

"I'm telling you, that Shen Yan is really scary. He always has a smile on his face when he sees people, but he's actually up to no good..."

"Don't say that. It's not good to talk badly about people behind their backs."

"?" Xie Qingyu was somewhat confused.

Is rationally discussing the villain's character considered speaking ill of someone? Then why not say that we should break the villain's legs later?

The banquet wasn't over yet, and Xie Qingyu, as the host, couldn't leave his seat for too long.

After chatting for a while, Xie Qingyu had to leave.

He was extremely reluctant to part with Xie Yan, and before leaving, he said pitifully, "Sister, please remove me from your blacklist. I really can't get through to you on the phone."

Xie Yan chuckled, then immediately removed "Young Master Gu" from her blacklist and added him on WeChat.

Xie Qingyu then hesitantly went out, saying, "Let's talk later! Wait for me!!"

He first went back to his room on the eighth floor to change into a new suit, then put on the signature smile of a successful person and was forced to go to work.

Xie Yan finds it funny to think that the silly girl who used to shout "Simi Masai One-chan" all the time is now pretending to be profound.

She had already completed her task for the day, so there was no need for her to go out anymore. After all, it was obvious to anyone that if she went out now, the gossipy eyes of those present would probably eat her alive.

Let Xie Qingyu handle it all.

Anyway, he hadn't finished his tasks for the day, and he was going to have a classic "chance encounter" with Bai Zhiwei.

After resting in the bathroom for a while, Xie Yan simply took the elevator up to the eighth floor.

Xie Qingyu had just given her a VIP card before he left. The eighth floor was a VIP lounge, and she could go up there to rest, or wait for him in his room.

The Tavis Hotel is currently the highest-class luxury hotel in Yunchuan City, with even the most basic room costing 2,000 yuan per night.

The corridor is covered with high-quality, sound-absorbing carpets, and the walls on both sides are adorned with modern art paintings, creating a stylish yet tasteful atmosphere.

Each room has excellent soundproofing, not to mention that we're on the eighth floor now, where all the noise and hustle and bustle are left behind.

Peaceful and comforting.

It's just a bit hot.

Xie Yan attributed this to having just drunk some alcohol.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Under the city's night sky, the lights shone as brightly as stars.

The colorful lights and shadows intertwine to create a beautiful picture, with a constant flow of cars and dense crowds, making the whole city seem to be pulsating with excitement.

A slender, thin boy stood on the terrace, the cool night breeze ruffling his soft hair.

He was wearing headphones, leaning against the railing looking down, his thick, long eyelashes obscuring the emotions in his eyes, his face expressionless.

The boy wore a simple white shirt with the collar slightly open, and his posture was upright, like a bamboo shoot.

However, his figure was too thin, making him appear somewhat lonely in the night.

The city's hustle and bustle had nothing to do with him; he seemed to be completely out of place in this world.

What was originally a beautiful yet desolate scene was disrupted by a splash of bright red.

Xie Yan's cheeks flushed slightly. After searching for a while, she finally found a terrace where she could feel the breeze.

The six-centimeter high heels made a soft "tap-tap" sound with each step.

A cool breeze swept over her, and Xie Yan took a deep, comfortable breath before exhaling deeply.

Natural breezes are always much more comfortable than air conditioning.

Xie Yan stretched and moved her body a bit before walking towards the front of the terrace.

That's when I noticed there was someone standing in front of me.

He was slender and wore a white shirt, looking very clean.

They've obviously come here to find some peace and quiet.

Just then, the person turned around.

Even in dim lighting, his handsome appearance and delicate features were still evident.

The boy's beautiful eyes, like black gemstones, shone brightly as he looked at Xie Yan.

The moment Xie Yan saw those eyes, her mind snapped back to reality as if electrocuted.

He is Shen Yan!

...No, that's not right.

It's Shen Yan now.

Xie Yan recognized him at a glance.

Although it felt somewhat unreal, this was the first time Xie Yan had felt the passage of time so deeply.

These ten years are but a few days to her.

But Shen Yan truly did grow from an eight-year-old toddler into a handsome young man.

Subconsciously, Xie Yan looked at his legs.

After all, when she saw the minor villain for the last time, he was still using crutches.

Just then, the owner of those long legs was walking towards Xie Yan step by step.

Step by step, very steadily.

A pair of very healthy legs, long and straight.

There was absolutely no lingering illness.

Very good, Xie Yan is satisfied; her ten thousand yuan was well spent.

The handsome young man stopped in front of Xie Yan.

He took off his headphones, and his dark eyebrows gradually curved into a polite and well-behaved smile.

His voice was clear and pleasant, like a gentle breeze.

Hello, sister-in-law.

"I am Shen Yan."
