Ye Xingbei took out her phone and saw it was a call from Yian Jingxue.

Only then did she remember that she had made plans to have dinner with Yian Jingxue at six o’clock.

Looking at the time, it was already half-past six.

“Oh no!” Ye Xingbei slapped her head in annoyance, quickly answered the phone, “Xiao Xue, sorry sorry sorry, I lost track of time, sorry, I’ll pick up the tab tonight, no, from this meal onward for the next ten meals, they’re all on me!”

“Who cares about your stinking money, you think you’re something just because you’re rich? Can money buy me a beautiful wife like Ye Xingbei?” On the other end of the phone, Yian Jingxue was listlessly drawing circles on the table, “What are you up to? You’re half an hour late, do you know? Were you playing with your Xiao Tiantian, so you forgot about me, Madam Niu?”

Ye Xingbei: “…What nonsense! Be good, order some food for now; give me fifteen minutes, I’ll definitely be there in fifteen minutes.”

“Fine,” Yian Jingxue said: “Anyway, I’m not in a rush for the evening. Just be careful on the road, worst comes to worst, we’ll just pull an all-nighter.”

Ye Xingbei: “…Okay, see you in a bit.”

After hanging up, Ye Xingbei poked Gu Junzhu in the chest, “It’s all your fault, it’s all your fault. Look, now I’m late.”

“Blaming me now?” Fifth Lord of Gu put on a wronged face, “I told you half an hour ago that it was getting close to the time, and you should leave. It was you who said you had inspiration and needed to write it down right away.”

Ye Xingbei: “…Fine, fine, it’s my fault.”

Gu Junzhu tightened his grip around her waist, “You wronged me! How are you going to make it up to me? …How about not going to have dinner with Yian Jingxue tonight and stay with me instead?”

Ye Xingbei: “…Get lost!”

She pushed Gu Junzhu away and took his hand, “Let’s go, let’s go. If we’re any later, Xiao Xue is going to explode.”

Gu Junzhu bent down to give her a deep kiss and ruffled her hair, “I really hate to part with you.”

Just moments ago, when their feelings were at their most intense, getting undressed and going to bed seemed like the best choice.

Damn best friend!

Ye Xingbei softened for a moment and kissed him back on the lips, “Me too.”

She now fully understood why most women chose love over friendship.

She felt guilty toward Yian Jingxue!

The two of them hurried downstairs.

Settled in the car, looking back at the gradually distancing Gu Group building, Ye Xingbei was filled with all sorts of feelings.

“Do you like it?” Gu Junzhu stroked the back of her head, “If you do, come visit often… The dessert shop will take at least two months to get straight. How about you come and do a temp job for me for those two months, be my assistant?”

Be Gu Junzhu’s assistant?

Going to work with Gu Junzhu every day.

Being able to see him even while he’s at work.

Getting to closely observe what he’s like when he’s working.

And having lunch with Gu Junzhu at midday!

Ye Xingbei shamefully felt her heart stir.

But… but…

“What about Xiao Shu?” She hadn’t completely lost her senses to Fifth Lord of Gu’s good looks; she still remembered she had a little baggage.

“Send Xiao Shu to school,” Gu Junzhu said, “Just in time for us to pick him up and Xiao Yue after work.”

“Right, “Ye Xingbei nodded, “Xiao Shu and Xiao Yue should start school.”

Even if both children were geniuses, they still needed to take part in group activities, interact with other children their age, to develop normal social skills and survival abilities.
