Fu Nanli was of course unhappy. He hadn't seen this girl for a few days and she was busy chatting with Gu Xiao, completely ignoring him. How could he be happy
The two hands were intertwined under the dining table. Wen Qiao's eyes were full of sparks. She hoped that Fu Nanli would not make trouble.
But Young Master Fu became stingy and kept feeling jealous, not letting her live in peace.
Wen Qiao was too busy dealing with him and chatted less with Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao could sense the undercurrent between the two people opposite him, so he just went about eating.
After the meal, Fu Nanli asked Wen Qiao to go upstairs to rest.
Wen Qiao: "Ah? I just finished dinner, I need to hang out for a while."
"Then go to the gym upstairs and take a slow walk on the treadmill."
Wen Qiao frowned slightly, and Fu Nanli touched her face: "Be good, go upstairs, I have something to say to Gu Xiao."
Wen Qiao thought, why didn't you just say it earlier, why did you have to beat around the bush
"Then talk it out and don't fight."
Fu Nanli pinched her waist again: "What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?"
Wen Qiao thought, why aren’t you that kind of person
After Wen Qiao went upstairs, Fu Nanli and Gu Xiao were the only ones left downstairs. The atmosphere suddenly became even more stagnant. Without Wen Qiao to mediate, the two of them seemed to have no idea what topic to bring up.
"Let's go sit on the terrace."
The two went to the terrace, which was lush with flowers and plants and well-maintained, with a table and two stools.
Although it was evening, it was still hot outside.
Fu Nanli spoke slowly: "We can live in peace from now on. You can even come over for dinner occasionally and treat me as your brother."
He always longed for a brother or sister. Gu Xiao had his father's blood flowing in his veins, and he had many regrets towards his father.
Although Gu Xiao's existence proves his father's shameful past.
But he didn't want to escape either.
Gu Xiao looked at him cautiously: "Is it really okay?"
Fu Nanli placed his slender fingers on the carved table: "You are my brother, why not."
Gu Xiao's throat was surging with mixed emotions. He just felt that he was too stupid in the past and did so many things that were incomprehensible. He was too deeply influenced by his mother.
He had too much inferiority complex. He always felt that people like Fu Nanli would look down on his brother who came from an ignoble background.
He is too sensitive and too worried.
"It's one thing for me to treat you as my brother, but it's another thing if you covet my girlfriend. If I knew that you still care about your brother's girlfriend..."
Gu Xiao's eyes were a little evasive. In fact, he still couldn't figure out how he felt about Wen Qiao.
At first he wanted to get close to her to take revenge on his brother, but later he felt that she was a very nice person and couldn't help wanting to get close to her, and it seemed that revenge on his brother had nothing to do with her anymore.
But one should not be too greedy.
He can only choose one between his brother and Wen Qiao.
He said, "I... need to think about it carefully."
Fu Nanli's forehead veins suddenly jumped. He wanted to think about it? He actually wanted to think about it. He really wanted to compete with his brother for a woman
The premise is that this woman is already his brother's girlfriend.
He was angry: "Whatever you want, you can leave now."
He suddenly turned cold and lost his temper. Gu Xiao knew what he cared about, so he didn't dare to say anything more. He stood up and said respectfully, "Then I'll leave first."
Wen Qiao on the second floor clearly heard the door closing. After a long while, he didn't see Fu Nanli come upstairs. He looked downstairs and saw Fu Nanli still sitting on the terrace, but he was alone. So he went downstairs in his slippers.
