Jian Yao's fingers placed on Gu Zhiyan's abdominal muscles curled up slightly.

To be honest, she really wanted to see it.

Gu Zhiyan looked at her twinkling eyes and coaxed softly, "Today is different, it's a waist chain."

He held Jian Yao's fingers with slight force, pulling her to put her whole palm against his abdominal muscles, "You Don't you like my abdominal muscles the most?"

The warm touch under her fingertips made Jian Yao's remaining sanity explode.

Her long white fingers hooked a shirt button.

Okay, she admitted it.

It's not that I want to see it a little bit, but I really want to see it!

...

Mingzhu's birthday party is in the evening.

The black Bentley stopped in front of the hotel. Assistant Xu got out of the car and opened the door. Gu Zhiyan got out of the car first, then turned around to help Jian Yao.

The two of them followed the welcoming waiter and walked into the lobby.

Although it was still half an hour before the official banquet started, the hall was already full of people.

When Mr. Ming and Mrs. Ming saw Gu Zhiyan coming in, they immediately stepped forward to greet him.

Mr. Ming was the first to reach out, with an elegant smile on his face, "Ayan, long time no see!"

Gu Zhiyan politely raised his hand to shake it back, and responded with a smile, "I'm a little busy these days, I'd like to thank you, Master

Ming ." The general manager glanced at the young couple and teased softly, "We are newlyweds. I understand. I understand."

He was just older, not disconnected from the Internet. He had seen more or less of the overwhelming hot searches on the Internet.

Gu Zhiyan and Mr. Ming were talking, while Mrs. Ming held Jian Yao's hand and looked at her gently.

Born so beautifully!

She smiled and pulled Jian Yao to sit on the sofa nearby. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She raised her hand and took off the Hetian jade bracelet she had on her hand and put it on Jian Yao's wrist.

Jian Yao was stunned for a moment, then refused, "Auntie, I can't accept it."

This high-quality Hetian jade is very rare, and its color makes it look like a beloved item that can only be cultivated by wearing it frequently.

Mrs. Ming immediately held down her hand that was taking out the bracelet.

"When you and Ayan were engaged, your aunt went back to Suzhou and couldn't attend. This will be your aunt's replacement engagement gift."

She said this, and Jian Yao couldn't refuse. She blushed and thanked Mrs. Ming.

"Thank you, Auntie."

The two chatted for a while, and another guest came in. Mrs. Ming asked Jian Yao to sit down first, and she went over to say hello.

After Mrs. Ming left, Jian Yao looked around.

Gu Zhiyan was surrounded by a group of bosses, and Mingzhu was not in the hall.

She was hesitating whether to sit in a corner for a while and wait for Gu Zhiyan to finish his work before going over to find her.

"Sister-in-law."

Jian Yao turned around, and Mingzhu stood behind her at some point.

Today's pearl is the protagonist, wearing a gorgeous and dazzling aqua-colored diamond-encrusted tube top dress. The waist-cinching design and fluffy skirt make her waist slender, full of energy, pure and sweet.

She playfully glanced at her parents who were busy greeting the guests, took Jian Yao's wrist and walked towards the dressing room at the back.

"Follow me, I have something for you."

When she arrived in the dressing room, Mingzhu carefully took out a brown paper envelope from her bag and handed it to Jian Yao.

Then he looked at her expectantly and enviously, curled his lips and smiled, "Open it and take a look."

The envelope was very thin, and you could vaguely feel the tiny edges of the contents inside through the brown paper.

Like a folded letter, or a photo.

Jian Yao curiously opened the envelope, pinched the thin photo inside, and slowly pulled it out.

It's a photo of Gu Zhiyan.

Gu Zhiyan looked much younger in high school than he does now, with a little bit of baby fat still on his face, and his jawline is not that obvious, but he is still handsome

. The photo seems to have been taken secretly, and the angle of the shooting is not good. You can see his profile.

Some people seem to be born to be the protagonist.

Among the crowds of people coming and going on a rainy day, the young man held an umbrella alone and looked down at the roses in his hands. The melancholy surrounding him made him look like a prince walking out of an oil painting.

In the complicated and slightly crowded scene, the very familiar bouquet of black buck roses in the young man's hand pierced Jian Yao's eyes like a needle.

This background and this bouquet of flowers were all very familiar to her.

At the Mathematical Olympiad in her senior year of high school, she asked Wu Yue to give flowers to Lu Chengze.

In Gu Zhiyan's manor, the bouquet of black buck eternal flowers covered by glass.

At the time, she only thought they looked familiar, and she thought the flowers were similar. Only now did she realize that they were actually the same bunch.

Mingzhu's eyes fell on the handsome and elegant profile of the young man in the photo, with some emotion and memories in her eyes.

"Sister-in-law, are you willing to listen to my story?"

Jian Yao's fingertips holding the photo turned slightly white, and she said softly, "Hmm."

Mingzhu clenched the bag in her hand and spoke slowly.

"The Gu family and the Ming family are family friends. Brother Gu and I have known each other since we were very young."

"I have loved to go to the Gu family with Brother Gu since I was a child. There are no girls in the Gu family, so the Gu family They all liked me and once joked that we should have a baby kiss.

"At that time, I didn't know anything and didn't understand what a baby kiss meant, but Brother Gu has been very mature since he was a child, and he was very serious about his face. She refused, saying that my sister cannot be my daughter-in-law."

Mingzhu's voice was soft and soft, and she spoke every word.

Jian Yao listened carefully and could clearly feel that today's Mingzhu was a little more relieved and calm than the Mingzhu Gu Yuanli met.

She had known that Gu Zhiyan and Mingzhu had known each other since childhood, but she didn't know that there was a baby kiss, and she didn't know that Gu Zhiyan at that time had already rejected Mingzhu like a young adult.

She lowered her eyes and looked at Gu Zhiyan's profile in the photo in her hand, becoming a quiet listener.

"I have been pampered since I was a child. This was the first time I was rejected like that. So when I was in elementary school, I angrily asked my mother to change schools and decided not to be good friends with Brother Gu anymore."

Mingzhu chuckled softly when she said this . "But I didn't expect that a child's angry decision would completely distance me from him."

"The most favored child of the Gu family does not need to accommodate anyone, so I did not wait to apologize and I coaxed him gently, even before he took the initiative to find me once,

even if it was the young Gu Zhiyan.

She wasn't that angry originally.

But Gu Zhiyan's lack of concern made her sad, and she held her breath and passed elementary school, junior high school, and high school.

Every time I went to school, I deliberately went to the wrong school with him, but I couldn't help but sneak up on him secretly.

No need to admit your mistake, even just a simple chat?

She will come back to him like a swallow in the forest.

Mingzhu recalled that she excitedly ran to confess to him on the day she graduated from high school, but he coldly refused and couldn't help but have red eyes.

This time, she left the country in anger.

During the years abroad, she once again coaxed herself and persuaded herself not to take it to heart.

She persuaded herself that Brother Gu had such a cold temperament. Although he rejected her, there were no other women around him, right?

When it comes to her own conditions, Mingzhu is confident that she is better than any other daughter in the capital.

She is the perfect candidate to marry him.

Even if you don't get your heart, it's good to get people.

But she didn't expect that he was married.

Mingzhu raised her eyes and looked at Jian Yao beside her, "Do you know? Your appearance broke my understanding of him."
