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

When Sun Xiaoxi arrived home, Su Yanxi and Shen Shi'an were already there.

Not wanting Su Yanxi to know what she was thinking, Sun Xiaoxi hurriedly went back to her room to change her clothes after arriving home, and then went to the kitchen to help.

Today, Shen Shi'an was going to cook himself and didn't need anyone's help, so Sun Xiaoxi had to come out of the kitchen, go to the living room, and sit next to Su Yanxi.

Su Yanxi was reading a book when she saw Sun Xiaoxi coming over, so she asked, "Why are you back so late today? Are you very busy with work?"

"No, I just arrived and I'm not familiar with the roads here, so I drove a little slowly," Sun Xiaoxi made up an excuse to cover it up.

Su Yanxi had no doubts about this: "You'll get used to it after driving it a few more times."

"Ah."

Sun Xiaoxi nodded, looking at Su Yanxi as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. She really wanted to ask Su Yanxi about Gu Yannian, but she was afraid that if she asked too much, Su Yanxi would discover her feelings for Gu Yannian.

But if she didn't ask, Wang Jiaojiao's situation would bother her a lot.

Su Yanxi noticed Sun Xiaoxi's unusual behavior, put down her book, and asked, "What's wrong? Is something wrong at work?"

"No, no, everything is fine, and my colleagues are very considerate of me. It's just..." Sun Xiaoxi hesitated for a moment, but still decided to ask about Gu Yannian: "Cousin, I saw Brother Gu at the company."

"Yes, he's the general manager of China Telecom. If you have any urgent matters, you can go to him for help."

"I see." Sun Xiaoxi already knew that Gu Yannian was the general manager of Tianyi, but she pretended to find out just now: "I saw him eating with a woman in the cafeteria today, and I was wondering why. I didn't expect that Brother Gu would be my boss."

"I forgot to tell you before."

Sun Xiaoxi originally thought that if she told Su Yanxi that Gu Yannian had dinner with another woman, Su Yanxi would definitely ask more questions, and then Su Yanxi could take the opportunity to ask about Wang Jiaojiao.

Unexpectedly, Su Yanxi seemed completely unconcerned and didn't pursue the matter further.

Sun Xiaoxi gritted her teeth and could only muster her courage to cautiously probe, "Cousin, I think Brother Gu and you have a special relationship. Aren't you two a couple? Why is he going to have dinner with other women again?"

"I think I know the woman you're talking about. Is her name Wang Jiaojiao?"

"Yes." Seeing that Su Yanxi had finally mentioned Wang Jiaojiao, Sun Xiaoxi nodded hurriedly: "It's her! Cousin, how do you know her?"

"Yan Nian, Wang Jiaojiao, and I were all college classmates. Wang Jiaojiao and Yan Nian are childhood sweethearts." Su Yanxi briefly introduced the relationship between her, Gu Yan Nian, and Wang Jiaojiao.

"Childhood sweethearts? Wang Jiaojiao and Brother Gu have known each other since they were little?"

Sun Xiaoxi was quite surprised to hear that Gu Yannian and Wang Jiaojiao had known each other since childhood. People at Tianyi all said that Wang Jiaojiao came from an extremely wealthy family and was a true heiress. If these two had known each other since childhood, wouldn't that mean Gu Yannian was also from a rich family?

Su Yanxi looked up at Sun Xiaoxi and asked, "Why do I feel like you're particularly interested in Yan Nian's affairs?"

"No, no." Sun Xiaoxi was startled and quickly shook her head: "Brother Gu is your boyfriend, cousin. I saw him with other women, so I kept an eye on him. Cousin, I was afraid you would be deceived."

"Don't meddle in my and Yan Nian's business. Just focus on your work, understand?"

"I heard."

Just then, Shen Shi'an called Su Yanxi from the kitchen. Su Yanxi glanced at Sun Xiaoxi, said nothing more, put down her book, and got up to go to the kitchen to help.

Seeing that Su Yanxi had gone to the kitchen, Sun Xiaoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She was too hasty! She almost let Su Yanxi see through her thoughts.

But you can't blame her. She fell in love with Gu Yannian at first sight.

Gu Yannian is handsome, rich, cheerful, and considerate; he is simply her dream lover.

Sun Xiaoxi knew that everything she had now was thanks to Su Yanxi, and she should be grateful to Su Yanxi instead of secretly plotting how to steal Su Yanxi's boyfriend.

But Su Yanxi already has so much; why can't she give up a man?

Thinking of this, Sun Xiaoxi felt no burden at all. What she cared more about was how to win Gu Yannian over.

……

Heavenly domain.

After washing up and getting into bed, Gu Yannian took out her phone and made a video call to Su Yanxi. The call was quickly connected, and seeing Su Yanxi on the screen, Gu Yannian's smile widened.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm reading." Su Yanxi turned her phone camera towards the book beside the bed, then back to herself: "Did you have dinner with Wang Jiaojiao today?"

"how do you know?"

"Xiaoxi told me."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yannian suddenly remembered that Sun Xiaoxi had already started working at Tianyi: "I almost forgot, you installed a surveillance camera next to me."

"What surveillance? Stop talking nonsense."

"By the way, I remember that China Telecom is only hiring for a planning position. Your cousin used to work in planning, right?"

"probably."

"What do you mean by 'should be'?" Gu Yannian asked, puzzled. "Don't you know your cousin at all?"

Su Yanxi chuckled and told Gu Yannian about the relationship between her mother and aunt, as well as the feud between the two families: "Xiaoxi and I haven't seen each other for many years. I never expected her to come to see me this time."

Hearing Su Yanxi's words, Gu Yannian was somewhat taken aback: "Her family has treated you like this, and you're still helping her like this?"

"She's already here, I can't just turn her away, can I? Besides, the grudges of the previous generation shouldn't involve the younger generation, should they?"

"You're just too soft-hearted."

Hearing Su Yanxi say this, Gu Yannian felt very sorry for her. If he were by Su Yanxi's side at this moment, he would definitely give her a hug.

By the way, why can't he go find Su Yanxi now?

Thinking of this, Gu Yannian got out of bed and walked towards the door: "Yanxi, wait for me at the door in twenty minutes."

"You're coming over so late?" Su Yanxi asked, somewhat surprised.

"Yes, I want to see you right now."

Su Yanxi thought this was a bit crazy, but she couldn't stop Gu Yannian from leaving the house so impulsively. Su Yanxi didn't say anything more, hung up the video call, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.

Su Yanxi was so engrossed in the joy of meeting Gu Yannian that she didn't notice the pair of eyes staring intently at her from the shadows behind her.
