Chapter 1097: Chapter 1097: Figure Drawing
"That’s not how you should put it," Gu Bingjun disagreed. "You’re my son, Gu Bingjun’s son. How can you not handle it? I think you two are quite a match!"
"Yes, yes, quite a match," Pei Yuanchen echoed without much sincerity.
"Hey... you brat," Gu Bingjun chuckled and scolded, "My vast family fortune will eventually be handed over to you to manage. Although the shares will be divided between you, Zhixi, and the three children, you’ll definitely be the one in charge. Marrying into the He Family is just perfect! And since He Jingyao has married my daughter, you should marry his sister... I think it’s a great idea!"
The more Gu Bingjun talked, the more he felt his idea was brilliant.
This way, if He Jingyao ever had second thoughts, he’d have to consider his sister and treat Zhixi better.
Pei Yuanchen was left speechless.
"Godfather, have you been really bored lately?" Pei Yuanchen snorted. "If you have nothing to do, you might as well sort out your own lifelong matters, instead of living alone."
Gu Bingjun’s recovery from surgery was good, but it wasn’t like before, so his workload had been significantly reduced, and he had hired a professional manager to handle the company’s affairs.
So with all this free time... he’d started getting interested in gossip.
"Stop making up stories about me," Gu Bingjun calmly shifted the topic back. "Tell me honestly, what do you really think about that young lady from the He Family? If you’re interested, then everything will be easy, and there’s nothing to worry about. Your godfather will personally back you up."
"Of course, I’ve thought about it. That girl is beautiful. I have to admit I want to sleep with her," Pei Yuanchen sneered, "but if I sleep with her and don’t want to take responsibility, will you clean up the mess for me, godfather?"
Gu Bingjun was silent for a while, probably at a loss for words.
"Get lost," he spat out, not taking it to heart. "I’m just saying, if you really like that girl, I guarantee I’ll make sure you marry her."
Pei Yuanchen let out a long sigh.
He couldn’t help but tighten his grip on the phone.
"Thanks, godfather," he laughed, half jokingly, "With your word, I’m at ease."
In the end, Gu Bingjun still couldn’t get a read on his true feelings.
After ending the call, Gu Bingjun tossed the phone aside, sat up, and lit another cigarette.
He didn’t have a heavy smoking habit, but lately, he’d been smoking more frequently.
The swirling smoke added a mysterious vibe to his chiseled features.
If things were really that simple, it would be nice.
He would definitely go and snatch that girl He Ziyi back right away and sleep with her seven or eight times before anything else.
Imagining himself making bold moves, he chuckled softly.
But soon enough, that faint smile vanished completely.

The next day.
Ziyi arrived at school early.
Liu Minjun originally wanted her to rest for a couple more days, but Ziyi felt she was well enough and shouldn’t skip class, so she insisted on going.
Liu Minjun had no choice but to let her.
The campus was even busier today than yesterday.
After the morning’s classes ended, the professor left an assignment and then drifted away.
Leaving behind a classroom full of groaning students.
"Oh my god, figure drawing!" a girl exclaimed, "I can feast my eyes again, I must get a handsome model!"
Figure drawing, huh...
Ziyi couldn’t help but bite the end of her pen.
She had only ever done still life sketches. She’d seen quite a few figure drawings but had never actually done one herself.
