"I know this guy... He's a rich kid that does things regardless of how it affects everyone else, you better not get involved with him." Wu Hongwen leaned over and advised Gu Xiqiao in a soft voice because even he didn't want to directly start a conflict with Yin Shaoyuan. He didn't know about the other man quite well, but his elders had reminded him time and time again that the only person that he couldn't get into trouble with in N City was him!

Wu Hongwen had never expected Gu Xiqiao to get entangled with him of all people, and was worrying over what ulterior motives Yin Shaoyuan had.

Yin Shaoyuan wasn't a regular person, so he naturally heard all of Wu Hongwen's words. Raising an eyebrow, he spoke, "I haven't been in N City for so many years, and you people start spreading all these bad rumors about me?"

"That's not what the point of what I said. Is there any reason why you're looking for my classmate?" Wu Hongwen moved and stood protectively in front of Gu Xiqiao, and at that moment he seemed like the protagonist of a romance novel.

"What, do I need a reason to see her?" Yin Shaoyuan replied, jeering as he did.

Wu Hongwen opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

Gu Xiqiao finished her milk tea and threw the empty plastic cup to a rubbish bin before looking at Yin Shaoyuan. "What do you need?"

Yin Shaoyuan turned around and opened the door for the passenger seat, seeing Gu Xiqiao finally respond to him. "Finally not treating me like air? I'm just here on your Young Master Jiang's orders, are you going to stand around and let everyone gawk at you, or are you gonna come with me?"

Since it was Jiang Shuxuan, she didn't have any more reservations and got onto the car.

This was a ways away from where Jiang Shuxuan would always wait for her, and because it was already a while after school ended, so there weren't a lot of students passing by.

Wu Hongwen frowned as he saw Gu Xiqiao get onto the car, and looked over at Xiao Yun. "Are you going to let her get on just like that? He isn't a good person..."

"It's fine." Xiao Yun remembered Yin Shaoyuan's attitude the last time she saw him with the Young Master Jiang in question, so she wasn't all that worried.

"You believe in that guy that he mentioned so much?" Wu Hongwen's brows were still furrowed as he drank his milk tea that he had never had a habit of drinking, before he met Gu Xiqiao.

Xiao Yun finished her milk tea and threw it into a nearby trashcan, looking at the white car that slowly pulled up by the sidewalk in front of her. "I saw them at the mall before, and he treats her like a treasure."

Both of them used to directly get fetched at the school gates, but ever since they had their after school strolls with Gu Xiqiao, they had always had their chauffeurs fetch them near the crossroads.

The white car drove away, leaving Wu Hongwen pondering over what Xiao Yun had said.

The red race car stopped by a private club, and Yin Shaoyuan got off the car and threw the car keys to the doorman before leading Gu Xiqiao inside, telling her where this was as he did.

He pushed open a door and let Gu Xiqiao inside first, and there was a gentle and graceful woman inside whose gaze went up and down Gu Xiqiao as they came in, before smiling. "I heard that Young Master Yin got a new girlfriend, but I hadn't guessed that his tastes would have changed completely to an underage girl."

This gaze on her made Gu Xiqiao quite uncomfortable, and she furrowed her brows slightly.

Yin Shaoyuan stopped smiling and looked at the woman seriously. "Miss Xia, just because you are free to say whatever you want, doesn't always mean you should, you know. I treat her as the biological sister that I never had."
