88 The Empress Is Really Unfair to Me 2
That morning, she woke up and found Tang Moyu and the twins waiting for her to come down from her room. Since she was too busy at work, she hadn't managed to find her own place yet. While she knew that Tang Moyu wouldn't mind her staying here for a few more days, Gu Yuyao was sure that a certain devil couldn't wait to kick her out of the empress's property.
Gu Yuyao scoffed to herself. What made the devil think that she would easily surrender Tang Moyu to him without a fight? There was no way in hell that she would allow Tang Moyu to be left alone with that conniving man.
Tang Moyu was definitely different from all those women Feng Tianyi knew before he was bound to his wheelchair. Gu Yuyao once heard that he had a chance to regain his ability to walk, but he didn't act on it. Thinking about it, maybe Moyu and the twins might be able to help him recover and give him the courage to regain the strength in his legs.
"Why's everyone so early today?" Gu Yuyao came down the stairs wearing a sleeveless baby pink blouse and a pair of denim pants. On her feet, she was wearing a pair of white slip-on shoes.
"We are having breakfast with Qin Jiran. Come and join us, Yaoyao." Tang Moyu told her.
Free meal? Of course, Gu Yuyao wouldn't decline that invitation.
They made their way to the guest house and weren't surprised to see that Qin Jiran and Song Fengyan were already there, waiting for their arrival. Song Fengyan raised a brow as soon as he saw his cousin walking alongside the empress.
What was Gu Yuyao doing here? Shouldn't she still be in the states, ignoring the summons from her grandfather?
The Song and the Gu family were related by blood. While the Songs were known in Shenzhen, the Gus domain was in Beijing. It was almost impossible for the Gu family not to be notified of Gu Yuyao's arrival, unless someone helped her to clean her tracks.
Song Fengyan turned and eyed his other cousin, who was the devil himself. Who else could help Gu Yuyao hide from her family except him!
"Don't look at me like that, Fengyan. I promise I did nothing wrong this time." Feng Tianyi told him as soon as he met his accusing gaze.
"Uh-huh. I'll believe you when the crows turn white." Song Fengyan replied.
It was really impossible for Gu Yuyao to escape her family's radar without Feng Tianyi's help. The devil probably struck a deal with her, one that she couldn't decline.
Meanwhile, the devil's attention was currently centered on the blushing woman sitting next to him. Ever since their kiss the other night at the guest house, Tang Moyu would shiver at his touch and blush whenever he tried to get close to her.
Tang Moyu wasn't sure why Qin Jiran was starting to show interest in her. Was it because of what she did to him when she was drunk? She finally understood the consequences of her actions that night and regretted drinking excessively.
Now what? Should she turn Qin Jiran away, like she usually did with other men who tried to woo her? She really didn't want their relationship to turn sour, considering that she had acknowledged him as a good friend.
Thank goodness Li Meili wasn't here, or else she would never hear the end of it. That woman was currently too busy with the launching of her next collection that Tang Moyu rarely saw even her shadow these days. She could already predict what her best friend would say about Qin Jiran's sudden interest in her.
"Moyu, screw him and let his mind blow. If it didn't work, at least you've got one hot sex session with him."
Tang Moyu shook her head in a failed attempt to brush off her best friend's possible words out of her mind. She definitely wasn't looking for a fuck buddy nor did she want to ruin whatever she had right now with Qin Jiran.
In the middle of their breakfast, He Lianchen arrived with several stacks of manila envelopes tucked under one of his arms. Little Star hopped down from her seat and ran towards him with excitement.
"Uncle Number 2! Uncle Number 2! Little Star misses you. Why are you late today?"
"Uncle was busy with work, Little Star. Did you and your brother behave while I'm gone?" He picked up the girl with his free hand without exerting any effort and walked to where the others were.
"En! We helped Uncle Ji plant his crops and our honeydews! Yu Gege has been counting the days until we can harvest!"
The moment Gu Yuyao saw He Lianchen coming their way, with Little Star in his arms, she thought that she was seeing things. She blinked several times and pinched her arm and realized that she wasn't dreaming.
'Shit.' It was too late for her to escape! She cursed her luck right then. So not only did Tang Moyu know Feng Tianyi, but she was also acquainted with He Lianchen?
She wondered if she could sneak out to avoid meeting He Lianchen, whom she hadn't seen for years. However,?he had already seen her.
"Gu Yuyao, is that really you?" He called out to her.
Why did she have to meet him again?!
