Chapter 79 The Seeds of Jealousy
Sun Xiaoxi's arrival was so sudden that Su Yanxi didn't know where to put her, so she could only let her stay in her office for the time being.
Sun Xiaoxi had no objection to this and obediently played on her phone on the sofa.
However, Sun Xiaoxi's mind was not on her phone at all. She watched Su Yanxi sitting behind her desk working and imagined what it would be like if she were sitting at the desk herself.
As noon approached, Sun Xiaoxi opened her phone and started looking at food delivery options, wondering if Su Yanxi would take her out for lunch.
Just then, there was a knock on the office door. As soon as Su Yanxi looked up, Gu Yannian walked in with a smile.
"How did you come?"
"I just happened to be passing by, and since it was almost noon anyway, I thought I'd come and ask you to have lunch together."
Gu Yannian walked over and asked, "How's it going? Are you done with your work? I'll take you to get something delicious!"
Su Yanxi naturally accepted Gu Yannian's invitation. However, there was also Sun Xiaoxi present.
Thinking of this, Su Yanxi replied, "My cousin is here too."
"Cousin? You have a cousin?"
Gu Yannian was somewhat surprised; he really didn't know Su Yanxi had a cousin!
Su Yanxi glanced at Gu Yannian with a hint of helplessness, then looked towards the sofa. Gu Yannian followed Su Yanxi's gaze and turned his head.
Sun Xiaoxi had noticed Gu Yannian as soon as he entered. Although she couldn't see his face clearly, she could tell from his figure that he was an exceptionally handsome man. Especially his voice, which was a hundred times better than that of a voice actor.
At this moment, Gu Yannian turned her head and looked over. After seeing Gu Yannian's appearance clearly, Sun Xiaoxi felt her heart beat faster.
Gu Yannian is so handsome!
He was more handsome than any man she had ever seen, and more attractive than any celebrity on TV!
When Gu Yannian saw the young woman sitting on the sofa, she raised her eyebrows slightly. It really was Su Yanxi's cousin. The two of them did look quite similar.
"Hello, my name is Gu Yannian."
Gu Yannian took the initiative to greet Sun Xiaoxi.
"Hello, my name is Sun Xiaoxi."
Sun Xiaoxi stood up and answered somewhat haltingly.
Gu Yannian smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Su Yanxi: "I didn't know you had guests today. How about we have lunch together?"
Su Yanxi thought about it and decided that eating together was fine. She couldn't very well go out to eat and leave Sun Xiaoxi alone.
"Okay, let's go together then."
"it is good."
Su Yanxi packed her things, stood up, and called to Sun Xiaoxi, "Xiaoxi, let's go eat together."
"Ah."
Sun Xiaoxi put away her phone, immediately got up and followed Su Yanxi.
The three of them took the elevator to the parking lot. Gu Yannian opened the car door for Su Yanxi first, and after Su Yanxi got into the car, she opened the car door for Sun Xiaoxi.
This is the first time someone has ever opened the car door for him.
Sun Xiaoxi was thrilled, but she maintained her composure, thanked Gu Yannian, and then sat in the back seat.
Gu Yannian closed the car door, got in, started the car, and left the parking lot.
"I just found a Western restaurant, I heard the food is amazing, want to try it together?"
"Okay. By the way, what brings you here today? Is something wrong?"
“An old customer asked me to meet him, and it just so happens to be at a teahouse next to Changfeng. I thought the Pu’er tea there was pretty good, so I bought some. You can take some with you later. You should drink less coffee and more tea in the future.”
"understood."
Sun Xiaoxi sat in the back seat, listening to the two people in front chatting and laughing, and felt somewhat superfluous.
She glanced at Su Yanxi, then turned her gaze to Gu Yannian. The two of them were so affectionate; they were clearly a couple deeply in love.
Thinking of this, Sun Xiaoxi felt a sharp pang of sadness.
Su Yanxi is beautiful and academically gifted; she's always been the "other people's child" that elders always talked about!
She had always been very jealous of Su Yanxi.
Later, when Su Yanxi was in college, rumors circulated that she was being kept by a sugar daddy. Although it was just a rumor and there was no evidence, she was overjoyed because this meant she no longer had to be jealous of Su Yanxi.
She returned to her hometown and spoke ill of Su Yanxi, spreading rumors she had heard with exaggerated detail. She thought Su Yanxi would be despised by everyone and live a difficult life from then on.
Unexpectedly, after many years, Su Yanxi has transformed into the chairperson of a listed company and has such a handsome boyfriend by her side.
The seeds of jealousy that had withered away suddenly revived at this moment, and then instantly grew into a towering tree, tightly wrapping Sun Xiaoxi's entire heart.
Why, why is Su Yanxi so lucky?
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Gu Yannian led Su Yanxi and Sun Xiaoxi inside.
The waiter brought the menu, and Sun Xiaoxi was stunned when she opened it, her face instantly turning red.
The menu is in English!
Sun Xiaoxi secretly went to check on Su Yanxi and Gu Yannian, only to find that the two were carefully looking through the menu and ordering food. The English menu was not a problem for them.
Turning her gaze away, Sun Xiaoxi looked at the menu in her hand, almost in tears. She had long forgotten all the English she had learned; she couldn't understand a single word of it.
Gu Yannian noticed Sun Xiaoxi's embarrassment and offered to order for her: "The steak here is very good, let me order one for you. And a cream of mushroom soup and a dessert, okay?"
Hearing Gu Yannian's words, Sun Xiaoxi nodded gratefully: "Okay, thank you."
Gu Yannian smiled and closed the menu.
The restaurant served food very quickly; in no time, the waiter brought over the steaks and other dishes that Gu Yannian and the other two had ordered.
Sun Xiaoxi has eaten Western food before and is fairly familiar with Western dining etiquette.
However, the food here was distinctly different from the Western meals she had eaten before. There were twice as many cutlery, and the presentation was so exquisite that it was hard to know where to begin.
Gu Yannian cut the steak, exchanged it with Su Yanxi, and then brought over Sun Xiaoxi's steak as well. She helped Sun Xiaoxi cut the steak and then brought it back to her: "Let the men do the tiring work of cutting steak. Girls can just eat."
Sun Xiaoxi smiled slightly, her admiration for Gu Yannian growing even stronger.
Su Yanxi placed both desserts in front of Sun Xiaoxi and said, "You can choose whichever of these two desserts you like."
"Thank you, cousin."
Su Yanxi responded and turned to chat with Gu Yannian about work.
Sun Xiaoxi couldn't understand or join in the conversation between Su Yanxi and Gu Yannian. However, she would occasionally glance at Gu Yannian out of the corner of her eye, thinking how wonderful it would be if she had a boyfriend like him.
