But they are Gu Zhiyan's friends. If I say I don't like them, does it mean I don't respect him or his friends too much?

Jian Yao bit her lip, a little confused.

She looked up at Gu Zhiyan with sincere eyes, "Then should I like it or not?"

Gu Zhiyan:? ? ?

What answer is this?

Is he some kind of yandere who even interferes with his fiancée's words and deeds?

Meeting Jian Yao's clear eyes, Gu Zhiyan sighed helplessly, "Jian Yao, you don't have to be so reserved in front of me."

The breeze blew by, ruffling the hair on her temples. Gu Zhiyan rubbed it with his fingers and thought for a moment. To help her sort out her urges, look her in the eyes.

"You just need to do whatever you want, express your truest thoughts, and do what you want to do most at the moment."

In order to accommodate Jian Yao, he lowered his head slightly and looked directly into her eyes with his dark eyes, as if there was an undercurrent. The surging whirlpool almost drowned Jian Yao's entire body.

Looking at her like this, Jian Yao's breathing stopped for a second.

She couldn't figure out what Gu Zhiyan was thinking, nor could she see through the complicated emotions in his eyes. She could only look away in panic and respond randomly, "Okay."

Gu Zhiyan saw that she was perfunctory with him insincerely, and he knew that she didn't care at all. Listen to what you say.

Just as Assistant Xu drove over in his car, Gu Zhiyan opened the door and helped Jian Yao get into the car, "Let's go, I'll take you back."

At the same time, another car was rushing from the airport to the hotel.

Wu Yue held the steering wheel, his eyes fell on the road ahead, and he couldn't help but complain.

"Brother Lu, the Jian family went too far this time!"

There happened to be a traffic light in front of him, and the car stopped with the traffic. His anger continued, "Last time I went to the Jian family, it was okay for them to humiliate me. Anyway, you and Jian Yao is now a family after they get engaged."

"But, they didn't send me an invitation!"

He remembered the cold reception he received when he went to Jian's house that day to deliver the guest list, and the evil fire in his heart began to rise. Risk.

Ever since he followed Lu Chengze and joined the Lu family, he had never been so humiliated.

Originally, the Jian family's parents were gone, and Brother Lu was afraid that the Jian family would be too busy, so he specially arranged for him to go to the engagement banquet to help out today.

He wanted to teach the Jian family a lesson, so he deliberately didn't go.

As a result, the Jian family didn't even send him an invitation!

He was so angry that he went to the airport to pick up Brother Lu, preparing to sue the Jian family in advance!

Wu Yue finished speaking like he was pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, but the people in the back seat had no reaction.

He frowned and looked through the rearview mirror at the man in the back seat of the car.

He closed his eyes and leaned his head on the back of the chair. His eyes were gray and his brows were furrowed even when he was resting.

The suit that was always straight had a few wrinkles due to the long journey, and the whole person looked a little decadent.

Even the most obtuse person could tell that he was in a bad mood.

Extremely bad.

He instinctively looked at Assistant Lin on the side and asked with his eyes: Brother Lu, what's going on?

Assistant Lin mouthed two words silently, "Jian Yao."

Wu Yue had an expression on his face that said, "I understand."

Jian Yao must be having trouble with Brother Lu again.

In the past few years, she has often had conflicts with Brother Lu because of Liu Yiyi's affairs.

Wu Yue didn't care much. After all, in less than three days, Jian Yao would admit defeat and come back to find Brother Lu.

Just as he was about to reassure Lu Chengze, the person in the back seat spoke unexpectedly.

"Has Jian Yao contacted you in the past few days?"

Lu Chengze opened his eyes at some point and looked at Wu Yue with cold and gloomy eyes.

The light turned green and the car moved slowly. Wu Yue tightened his grip on the steering wheel and glanced at the rearview mirror in surprise, "Me?"

"No, it's not like you don't know. She and I have had a bad relationship since childhood..."

Wu Yue heard that If so, the temperature in the carriage would instantly drop to freezing point.

Wu Yue's voice became softer and softer, and he finally understood what was wrong.

Brother Lu actually asked about Jian Yao?

Is he in a bad mood because of Jian Yao?

Is it possible that Jian Yao hasn't contacted Brother Lu in the past few days?

Wu Yue didn't believe it, "Maybe he's too busy."

"It's not like you don't know about the situation of the Jian family. They are probably busy with the engagement banquet."

Lu Chengze had no expression on his face and said "hmm" coldly.

As the car approached the entrance of the hotel, Lu Chengze didn't close his eyes anymore. He looked down at his watch, then turned to look in the direction of the hotel not far away.

There were no cars in front of the hotel, so he saw the black Bentley at the door...it looked familiar.

Sure enough, the next second, Wu Yue in the driver's seat said in surprise, "It's Gu Zhiyan again?"

The hotel was completely booked today, and the people coming and going should be attending the engagement party. Gu Zhiyan had no interaction with the Jian family, and had no contact with the Lu family. I don't even know my home well. What are you doing here?

"Hiss~ He is supporting a woman?" Wu Yue rubbed his eyes to make sure he saw correctly, and whispered, "Doesn't he like men?"

Everyone in the circle said that he and Pei Yi were a couple. With.

He had been secretly observing Gu Zhiyan for so many years, but he hadn't seen him get close to any woman?

Lu Chengze's eyes stayed on the two people in the distance. Gu Zhiyan was tall and blocked most of the woman in his arms. He couldn't see her face and could only see her red skirt and slender calves.

Lu Chengze narrowed his eyes slightly and fixed his gaze on the exposed half of his leg for a moment, feeling inexplicably familiar.

...a bit like Jian Yao.

He watched with his own eyes as Gu Zhiyan protected the woman into the car, raised his hand to his forehead, and felt that he had been in a daze these past few days.

How could Jian Yao be with Gu Zhiyan? They are not of the same world at all.

Besides, she never wears such bright colors.

The car stopped in front of the hotel. Lu Chengze pushed the door open and got out of the car, subconsciously looking at where the Bentley was parked just now.

Then he withdrew his gaze and strode towards the hotel entrance.

When I saw the gorgeous red roses on the steps, my heart skipped a beat.

The main flower at the engagement party was changed...

not the white rose he liked.

The staff at the door politely stopped a few people and said, "Hello, our hotel is not welcoming guests today. If you need it, we can help you make an appointment for tomorrow's service." The

young staff member had the right smile on his face. Smiling, polite and distant.

Lu Zhiyan paused and pursed his thin lips, "I know, I'm here to attend the engagement party."

The staff member was stunned and said in a surprised tone, "Sir, did you remember the time wrong? The engagement party is over and the scene is already being cleaned."

The expression on her face was a bit hard to describe. This was the first time she had seen her after working for so long. Came over for the engagement party at around two o'clock in the afternoon.

Lu Chengze's hands hanging by his sides tightened and he didn't speak for a while.

Wu Yue looked at Lu Chengze, then at Assistant Lin, silently took half a step back, and gave Assistant Lin a gentle push.

Assistant Lin: ...

Out of professionalism, Assistant Lin stepped forward and said, "Calculating the time, the banquet is indeed over. How about we go back first?"

His words seemed to wake up Lu Chengze in front of him.

He raised his eyes and looked inside the hotel. He didn't know why, but he always felt very flustered today. "I want to go in and have a look."
