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

Only after her father left did Su Yanxi dare to laugh out loud.

"You didn't see it, but after I finished speaking, that old man's beard almost sprouted from anger."

Su Yanxi burst into laughter, relishing what had just happened, showing no sign of being bothered by it at all.

Gu Yannian sat to the side watching her, thinking that suddenly telling others about their relationship would make Su Yanxi angry.

"Aren't you angry?" Gu Yannian asked Su Yanxi tentatively.

But Su Yanxi's expression was flawless as she met his gaze and said, "I'm only happy for a short time, what's there to be angry about?"

However, this incident also served as a warning to Su Yanxi.

People outside are taking an interest in Gu Yannian. If she doesn't assert her dominance soon, they'll all want to ride roughshod over her.

"Come with me to an event tonight."

“Okay.” Gu Yannian agreed without hesitation.

His feelings for Su Yanxi were also complicated; he acted entirely according to his inner thoughts.

The event that evening was attended by prominent figures from all walks of life, and Gu Yannian, despite it being her first time participating, showed no signs of nervousness.

They move with ease among all kinds of people.

"Old Gu, you're actually attending this kind of banquet now. It seems you've received help from a benefactor."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Gu Yannian skillfully dodged the hand on her shoulder, and the smile on her lips was the best she could manage.

These people are all opportunists; they've come here simply to see Gu Yannian make a fool of herself.

"Old Gu, there's no need for formalities between us. And who is this gentleman?"

The man's eyes almost fell on Su Yanxi, his face filled with longing for her.

Gu Yannian walked directly in front of Su Yanxi and used her hand to separate the two of them.

"This is my girlfriend. I have other things to do at this event, so I won't catch up with her for now."

Gu Yannian smiled and nodded, pulling Su Yanxi away from the troublesome place.

"You don't like these people?" Su Yanxi hadn't seen Gu Yannian show her emotions for a long time.

She could feel the hand she was being held clench tightly as the person approached.

Gu Yannian knew that those people were like leeches, once they got on you, you couldn't shake them off.

"You'd better stay away from these people; they're not good people."

Su Yanxi raised her head, a smile spreading across her lips as she nodded.

These people are insignificant in her eyes; if they really wanted to come, she could easily defeat them all.

"Yan Nian, I'll go deal with those bosses up front. You rest here."

No sooner had Su Yanxi left than the group of people walked up to Gu Yannian.

"Old Gu, you have such a stunning beauty by your side now, rich and beautiful, why don't you think about us brothers?"

Gu Yannian thought that today was a big event, and she should try to control her temper so as not to cause a scene.

He took a deep breath, not wanting to say anything more, picked up his wine glass, and was about to turn and leave when the two men blocked his way.

Holding the necklace around his neck, she whispered, "Old Gu, now that you're successful, you've forgotten about us. Isn't that a bit immoral?"

"Let go." Gu Yannian slapped the hand off her neck and coldly rebuked, "When I was at my lowest point, you weren't like this."

Gu Yannian's indifferent voice made both of them pause for a moment.

They didn't expect Gu Yannian to dare to fight back; they originally thought he would just let people beat and scold him without fighting back.

"You got to where you are by relying on women. Who knows how many men that woman has slept with?"

As he spoke, the man couldn't help but drool over Su Yanxi's stunning figure.

He continued with a hint of sarcasm, "You're only good at bed. Once she finds someone better than you, let's see how long you can be so smug."

"is it?"

Gu Yannian chuckled twice, his cool voice carrying a chilling undertone, and placed the wine glass in his hand aside.

At this moment, Gu Yannian put all other thoughts aside; he only wanted to deal with this bastard using appropriate methods.

"Tell me honestly, isn't Su Yanxi's figure very appealing, making you..."

Before the man could finish speaking, a fist appeared in his face, giving him no chance to think.

"How dare you hit me!" The man covered his face, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Just a few words were enough to make Gu Yannian seem like a completely different person.

"You deserve to be beaten for your foul mouth." Gu Yannian picked up her wine glass and transformed back into her original form.

But when she looked down at the man, that gloomy look lingered in her eyes for a long time.

The simple farce caused a stir at the event, and many people turned their attention to this side.

Su Yanxi rushed over without bothering to deal with the business owners, asking, "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing, I just want to go back."

Gu Yannian clearly understood that it was precisely this impulsive act that caused the event to be the subject of much discussion among them.

Rather than being kicked out by the organizers, it's better to leave voluntarily.

"Alright, I'll handle these things myself." Su Yanxi glanced at the person lying on the ground, already having a plan in mind.

The matter became the talk of the company the next day, and the rumors about Gu Yannian and Su Yanxi intensified.

"Yan Xi, you have no reason to continue to favor Gu Yannian."

Shen Shi'an stormed into Su Yanxi's office, angrily carrying a file bag and looking disdainfully at the person sitting on the sofa.

"Senior, I've already taken care of that matter. Why are you so upset?"

Su Yanxi knew that what happened last night would reach Shen Shi'an's ears, so she made preparations well in advance.

Shen Shi'an snorted and opened the file bag. "The project that was supposed to be finalized has completely fallen through because of Gu Yannian's outburst."

Su Yanxi hadn't expected this, but a small project didn't matter to her.

"People stood up for me, so if something goes wrong, I'll naturally be held responsible."

"Yanxi, what will people in the company think of you and how will they treat their work if you do this?"

Shen Shi'an was unwilling to accept that Su Yanxi would actually make a fuss at work because of Gu Yannian.

"Senior, I always thought you would understand, but I didn't expect you to be just like everyone else." Su Yanxi stood up and roared at him.

Gu Yannian patted her shoulder and said, "Since I was the one who did it, I will try to salvage this project."

Shen Shi'an wanted to hear those words. He threw the document on the table and snorted coldly.

You'd better do more than you say.

As I walked out of the office, my assistant happened to be taking out project-related documents to destroy.

"Mr. Shen, what should we do with these documents?" The assistant was torn between destroying them and keeping them.

"Since he has the ability to salvage this project, then give him all this information."

Shen Shi'an glared fiercely at the two people in the office, a deep sense of jealousy rising in his heart.

The project had actually run into problems a long time ago; he just wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of Gu Yannian completely.

Who would have thought there would be an unexpected bonus?
