Chapter 329: Chapter 349: Why Should I Replace You? _1

"What’s going on between you and my sister now?"

Gu Yuexi was at a loss for a moment, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Make way?

Not willing!

Forge ahead?

It seems a little awkward, considering that she’s her sister and they have a close relationship!

Lin Chen candidly replied, "I can’t explain it clearly because there’s still some time left before the three-month deadline, so we haven’t formally discussed this matter."

Gu Yuexi frowned, "You said she’s gone on a business trip, when will she come back?"

Lin Chen shook his head, recounting the conversation between Ouyang Le and Chu Jiaxue when he took her away.

"Originally, I wanted to solve this matter by myself, so you wouldn’t have to face these awkward things, but given today’s environment and Yingying’s appearance, I think it’s better to tell you, after all, she might still be out of touch for a few months."

Gu Yuexi fell silent.

Any other woman in Gu Yuexi’s position would fight for her own happiness without showing any weakness. However, the person in question was Chu Jiaxue, her close cousin!

With one hand propping up her chin, Zuo Yingying looked left and right, full of interest.

"Miss Gu..."

Gu Yuexi raised her head, "Call me Yue Yue or Xiaoxi."

Zuo Yingying chuckled, "Yue Yue should be reserved for your brother to call you, I’ll call you Xiaoxi."

Gu Yuexi nodded slightly, feeling a little flustered. She didn’t know why Zuo Yingying had suddenly interrupted the conversation, but out of courtesy, she didn’t show any hostility towards Zuo Yingying.

Zuo Yingying was right; she wasn’t Gu Yuexi’s enemy, and subconsciously, Gu Yuexi didn’t want Lin Chen to be caught in the middle and feel awkward.

Zuo Yingying, smiling, asked, "Can I have a private chat with you?"

Gu Yuexi looked puzzled, glanced at Lin Chen, and saw that he was also confused. After hesitating, she nodded and said, "Okay!"

Lin Chen frowned, "What do you want to say?"

Zuo Yingying stood up, walked behind Lin Chen, gently pressed her hands on Lin Chen’s shoulders, leaned in his ear, and whispered, "Don’t worry, I’m on your side, I’m only here to help you."

Lin Chen glanced at Zuo Yingying, and Zuo Yingying gave him a reassuring look before turning her head toward the stern of the boat.

"No eavesdropping, yo!"

Gu Yuexi pursed her lips and followed Zuo Yingying to the very back of the boat, where the two leaned against the railing and enjoyed the sea breeze.

Gu Yuexi turned her head and stared at Zuo Yingying, "What did you want to say to me?"

Zuo Yingying chuckled, "You and Lin Chen haven’t slept together yet, have you?"

Gu Yuexi’s face flushed slightly, but she knew that Zuo Yingying’s question wasn’t just to provoke or mock her. So, she candidly shook her head, "I’ve thought about it, but he always avoids me. I didn’t understand before, but today, I realized that he’s avoiding my sister."

Zuo Yingying smiled with pursed lips, "Lin Chen is a real man. If it weren’t for me drugging him, he and I would probably just be ordinary friends now."

Gu Yuexi actually felt a little envious. If she had done the same, perhaps she wouldn’t be in such a dilemma now.

"It’s actually a series of coincidences. I met him at a bar before and wanted to play with him, but he ended up teasing me instead, kissed me, and touched me. I wasn’t willing to leave it at that, so I asked him out again and invited two technicians from my company to give him a massage while slipping a drug into his teacup. My original intention was to let the two technicians sleep with him and take a video to mock him..."

Gu Yuexi listened to Zuo Yingying recount her private affairs, her eyes widening, "What happened next?"

Zuo Yingying embraced Gu Yuexi’s shoulder, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "But he didn’t want to be played by me, so like a bull, he broke through several walls, crossed several rooms, and then caught me, who was peeping at him. The result, you know, I couldn’t sleep a wink all night..."

Gu Yuexi had a strange expression on her face, unsure whether to laugh or envy her.

Zuo Yingying chuckled, "Jiaxue should know about Lin Chen and me, but she never said anything."

Gu Yuexi’s eyes suddenly brightened.

She was a smart woman, and naturally, she understood the implications behind this.

"Did she know that you and Lin Chen had been together?");

Zuo Yingying whispered, "She didn’t say it outright, but you know, women are sensitive when it comes to these things, and since the three of us were having dinner together, there’s no way she didn’t notice. And after that, I pulled Lin Chen to act as my boyfriend, originally wanting to help shield her, but it turned out that the man pursuing her was Jiaxue’s university classmate, who knew Lin Chen was Chu Jiaxue’s husband..."

Gu Yuexi’s eyes widened. If the previous dinner together hadn’t made it clear, this should be considered proof, right?

"What did she say?"

Zuo Yingying smiled, "I asked Lin Chen, and he said that she never even mentioned it. Now, why do you think that is?"

Gu Yuexi furrowed her brows, staring at Zuo Yingying with a more cautious look, "What, are you keeping such a close eye because you want to replace her?"

Zuo Yingying laughed lightly, "You’re thinking about it in the wrong way. Why would I want to replace her?"
