After going bankrupt, the school beauty I was dating became my boss.

The last time Gu Yannian felt ashamed was when he was two months behind on rent and the landlord cornered him in the hallway and berated him. The most recent time was right now!

If Gu Yannian had received this watch at any other time, she would have been delighted. But at this moment, Gu Yannian simply couldn't feel happy.

He knew that his and Su Yanxi's roles had been reversed, but while he said he was willing to be kept, he didn't really want to admit it. And now, Su Yanxi clearly made it clear to him that he was just a kept man!

Seeing that Gu Yannian didn't speak, Su Yanxi asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like it? If you don't like it, I can give you something else next time."

Gu Yannian's expression changed repeatedly, and she gripped the box tightly in her hand, unable to utter a single word.

Su Yanxi saw Gu Yannian's expression and knew that Gu Yannian was unhappy, but Su Yanxi acted as if she didn't see it and continued to say, "If you want anything in the future, just say the word, and I will agree to anything I can."

Do you really have to do this?

Gu Yannian finally couldn't hold back any longer. She raised her head, her expression filled with an indescribable desolation: "Yanxi, do you really have to treat me like this?"

Yanxi.

The familiar address made Su Yanxi fall silent. This was the first time Gu Yannian had called her by her name since they reunited!

She used to hate Gu Yannian calling her name, but after Gu Yannian left without saying goodbye, she missed him just as much.

She had thought she would be happy to hear Gu Yannian call her name again. But no, she wasn't happy at all; all she could think about were the things Gu Yannian had said yesterday.

Gu Yannian lived a good life without her; she was the only one who stayed in the same place from beginning to end!

"I don't understand what you're saying. Haven't I been good enough to you?" Su Yanxi knew that if she just lowered her head, everything could go back to normal. But she didn't want to. Why was it always her who had to lower her head?

With this thought in mind, Su Yanxi spoke in a way that Gu Yannian didn't want to hear: "Gu Yannian, I've already given you so much. Isn't it inappropriate for you to want more?"

If you really don't want me to be your sugar daddy, then I can give up. But are you sure you want me to give up? Don't you care about your bank debts?

Gu Yannian stared intently at Su Yanxi, and after confirming that these were Su Yanxi's true feelings, Gu Yannian suddenly grinned and said, "It's not easy to meet someone willing to take care of me, how could I give up? I was just confused just now, please don't take it to heart. From now on, I'll take whatever you give me, and I'll do whatever you want me to do without hesitation."

Hearing this answer, which was clearly tinged with defiance, Su Yanxi forced a smile and replied, "It's best that you think that way."

"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Gu Yannian stood up and waved the box in her hand at Su Yanxi: "I really like this watch, so I'll take it. Thank you."

"You deserve this, no need to thank me."

"Okay." Gu Yannian nodded and left the office.

As soon as Gu Yannian stepped out of the office, her expression changed instantly. Zhao Xu, who was sitting in the cubicle outside the office, heard the commotion and came out. Seeing Gu Yannian, he greeted her, "President Gu, you're out so soon? Are you leaving already?"

"Ah."

Zhao Xu's gaze fell on the box in Gu Yannian's hand, and he suddenly realized: "So President Su is going to give this watch to President Gu."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yannian looked at Zhao Xu: "You know this watch?"

“I know, Mr. Su specifically instructed me to buy it.” Zhao Xu smiled, oblivious to Gu Yannian’s odd expression. “This watch is very hard to buy; I waited a long time to get it. Mr. Su…”

"I have something to do, I'll be leaving now." Gu Yannian didn't want to listen anymore. Su Yanxi had spent so much time and money to buy this watch just to humiliate him.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu?"

Seeing Gu Yannian suddenly leave in anger, Zhao Xu chased after her, calling out twice, but to no avail, he had to give up. How strange, he hadn't even finished speaking, why did Gu Yannian leave already?

Su Yanxi asked him to buy this watch. Because it was hard to find, he had even suggested to Su Yanxi that he see if he could get a different brand. But Su Yanxi insisted on this one because she said she was going to give it to someone very important.

After Gu Yannian left, Zhao Xu took the documents that needed Su Yanxi's signature and went into the office.

"Mr. Su, here are a few documents that need your signature."

Su Yanxi leaned back on the sofa, her face pale. Zhao Xu was startled at the sight. He quickly ran to his desk, took out some stomach medicine from the drawer, and handed it to Su Yanxi along with water. After taking the medicine and calming down for a while, Su Yanxi's complexion improved somewhat.

"President Su, why don't you go to the hospital? Taking painkillers every time you're in pain isn't a good solution." Zhao Xu had worked with Su Yanxi for many years and knew that Su Yanxi had always had a sensitive stomach. Even though he suggested she go to the hospital, Su Yanxi was unwilling.

"I'm fine. Where's Gu Yannian?"

"President Gu has already left." Recalling Gu Yannian's attitude when she left, Zhao Xu was somewhat puzzled: "I noticed that President Gu seemed a little angry when she left. Did something happen? Does President Gu not like that watch?"

Su Yanxi pursed her lips and remained silent. If it had been given to her at any other time, Gu Yannian would definitely have liked it. After all, it was something Gu Yannian had always wanted. But she chose this moment of all times and said some irrelevant things. Gu Yannian would only feel that the watch was an insult to him, so how could he possibly like it?

"Zhao Xu".

"What are your instructions, Mr. Su?"

"Tell the legal department to expedite the procedures."

"The legal department is already processing the paperwork. But Mr. Su, are we really going to completely separate Mr. Gu's company from the group? We finally managed to acquire it, and now we're separating it again. Isn't that a bit inappropriate? And what if Mr. Shen asks about it?"

"If my senior asks, I'll explain it to him myself. Also, don't tell anyone about this yet, especially not Gu Yannian."

"I see."

Su Yanxi was too tired, so she asked Zhao Xu to leave first and she wanted to be alone for a while.

Zhao Xu noticed that Su Yanxi's expression wasn't good, so he quietly slipped out. Just as he left, his phone rang. After seeing the caller ID, Zhao Xu quickly returned to his office and answered the phone: "President Shen."

"Zhao Xu, how is Xiaoxi?"

"President Su is doing well. President Shen, are you coming back soon?"

"I have some things to take care of, so I might be delayed for a while. But I'll make time to come back for Xiaoxi's birthday."

"Yes, Mr. Shen."
