After being dumped, I turned around and married my ex-boyfriend's younger brother.

Chapter 70 Boyfriend?

Meng Ran: ?

She looked at Su Yiran in confusion, only to see her slip into the bathroom with her clothes in hand. Once the bathroom door was closed, she didn't care if the sky fell down.

"No, you tricked me again!"

The phone in Meng Ran's hand felt like a hot potato. She took a deep breath and answered the call, "Mr. Gu."

Kyoto.

The Gu Family Manor, the study.

Gu Yanli breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the call connect, but frowned the next second upon hearing a voice, "Where's Yiyi?"

"Yiyi is taking a shower."

Meng Ran held her phone up to the bathroom doorway, the sound of running water reaching the other end of the line. "Her phone was dead, but she just plugged it in. Is something urgent? Should I take the phone in for her?"

After a moment of silence, the other person said, "No need."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Meng Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Yiran might dodge the first day of the month, but she couldn't dodge the fifteenth. Gu Yanli seemed to have timed it perfectly; after she finished showering and drying her hair, his call came in.

"Ayan, it's so late, why aren't you resting yet?"

Su Yiran preemptively asked, "Are you having trouble sleeping because you miss me?"

Fortunately, Meng Ran was taking a shower at the moment and couldn't hear what Su Yiran was saying, otherwise she would have been disgusted to death by Su Yiran's pinching.

Gu Yanli said coldly, "So you know it's late, Su Yiran? You didn't even tell me about such a big thing as going to Shenzhen. Have I been too lenient with you?"

"I meant to say it was on, but you didn't answer the phone."

Su Yiran muttered to herself, "This time it was Mr. Qiao Sen who gave me the invitation. It happened so suddenly, there was nothing I could do."

You always have your reasons.

Through the screen, Su Yiran heard Gu Yanli sigh, "It's getting late, get some rest. Call me anytime if you need anything."

"Okay, I knew Ayan was the best to me, the best in the world."

After hanging up the phone, Su Yiran lay down and watched some dramas. Meng Ran came out and saw this scene. "Oh my, did you appease that guy in Kyoto?"

"That is!"

Su Yiran smiled at her, "My husband is so good to me."

"Wow, that's impressive."

Meng Ran sat down beside her. "After spending these past few months together, have you really fallen for her?"

"Rich and good-looking, who wouldn't like that!"

"You're so stubborn."

the next day.

The two spent a day exploring Shenzhen, only to find it packed with people everywhere. They managed to visit just two or three attractions, feeling unsatisfied and exhausted, and could fall asleep the moment they hit the bed.

The day before the exhibition opened, Su Yiran obtained a list of attendees for the Qiaosen Exhibition, and the two of them spent the whole day studying it together.

The exhibition is progressing smoothly.

The original plan was to stay in Shenzhen for five days. Today is the fourth day. Before going back, the two decided to try the morning tea in Shenzhen. There are thousands of teahouses, but they never expected to run into Sheng Jiahe.

It's just too much of a coincidence.

Through their conversation, Sheng Jiahe learned that Su Yiran would be leaving Shenzhen tomorrow. "So soon! I haven't even had a chance to show you around yet. I don't know when you'll be back in Shenzhen next time."

"There will be a chance."

Su Yiran smiled and said, "Next time you come to Kyoto. Kyoto is so much fun. Give me two days and I'll definitely show you around from top to bottom."

"Okay, you can't go back on your word. Since that's the case, let's add each other's contact information so you don't have to deny it later."

Sheng Jiahe took out a QR code.

"Am I this kind of person?"

Su Yiran took out her phone and added the friend.

After the last time, Meng Ran had gotten used to being a third wheel. Bored, she looked out the window and a conspicuous Maybach came into view. She squinted, subconsciously glanced at the license plate, and instantly gasped.

She tugged at Su Yiran's clothes, her voice low, "Outside, outside..."

Su Yiran didn't hear clearly, "What's wrong?"

"Outside!"

Meng Ran said, "Gu Yanli is here."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yiran immediately went to the window and looked at the black Maybach outside. The familiar and domineering license plate number was indeed that of Gu Yanli.

Why is he here?

At this time, appearing here...

Su Yiran took a deep breath, glanced at the bewildered Sheng Jiahe in front of her, and said, "Jiahe, I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now. See you in Kyoto!"

Sheng Jiahe asked, "Why are you in such a hurry...?"

Before the other party could speak, Su Yiran pulled Meng Ran away from the teahouse.

"My dear Ranran, in a little while..."

"No help!"

Ignoring Su Yiran's words, Meng Ran refused, "Now you're scared? Figure it out yourself, I can't help you with this."

Upon reaching the Maybach, Meng Ran withdrew her hand, saying, "I won't disturb your time together, I'll be going now."

Meng Ran had heard Meng Jinxing mention Gu Yanli's temper before. Despite his usual indifference, he was the most patient person. He seemed indifferent to everything, but in reality, he cared the most.

"Good morning, Ayan!"

Su Yiran got into the car with a smile.

"morning."

Gu Yanli's gaze fell on Su Yiran, "Have you had a good time these past few days?"

His tone was indifferent, but to Su Yiran, something felt off, and she felt a chill run down her spine.

"I'm not happy. Ayan isn't around, so I didn't have enough fun."

Su Yiran pursed her lips, glanced down at the time, and saw it was 10 a.m.

It takes at least three or four hours to fly from Kyoto to Shenzhen. He arrived this morning.

Or perhaps he arrived last night?

Even though she knew that she and Sheng Jiahe had nothing going on, she still felt inexplicably guilty looking at Gu Yanli in front of her, especially since he gave off a strange feeling today.

"Did Ayan come today? Have you had breakfast?"

Su Yiran smiled and said, "This teahouse has good morning tea, would you like to try it?"

"it is good."

Gu Yanli agreed without the slightest hesitation.

"..."

Su Yiran's smile froze on her face.

She was just being polite, so why did he agree?

The words had already been spoken, and it seemed she couldn't take them back.

It's been so long, Sheng Jiahe should have left by now.

But what you fear most is what comes to pass.

Su Yiran originally wanted to ask the owner to make room in a private room, but Gu Yanli spoke up, "Aren't there empty seats?"

Su Yiran followed the gaze and saw that Gu Yanli had already walked over and sat down. When she saw Sheng Jiahe sitting in front of Gu Yanli, her vision went black and she almost fainted on the spot.

"Ayan, this..."

Someone has taken their place.

"Yiyi?"

Sheng Jiahe spoke up, "Didn't you leave early because you had something to do? And who is this...?"

"Don't you want to introduce me?"

Gu Yanli raised his eyes, his deep gaze falling on Sheng Jiahe. Even without doing anything, a silent sense of oppression filled the air.

"..."

Su Yiran bit her lip. She finally understood. Whether or not to have morning tea was not important. What was important was that Gu Yanli had known about Sheng Jiahe's existence for a long time.

Su Yiran met Gu Yanli's gaze, took a deep breath, and said, "Yanli, this is my friend, Sheng Jiahe."

"Boy friend?"
