"...Admit it, you already have someone you like..." Ye Qingya had a knowing expression, and Su Nianian couldn't help but perk up her ears.

  She was also curious about what kind of girls a boy like Gu Zichen would like.

  "No." Gu Zi Chen said coldly.

  It seems like Ye Qingya has sensed something fishy and narrowed her eyes, "In the past when I asked you this question, you always ignored me. Today you actually said there wasn't, definitely means there is!"

  Gu Zi Chen was speechless for a long time before turning his head away, "Boring."

  Seeing him like this, Ye Qingya was even more certain of her thoughts.

  She raised her eyes and saw Su Nian holding a kitten, her smile even sweeter. "Nian, the grapes and pomegranates in the backyard are ripe, I'll ask Fu Bo to pick some for you."

  "I'll go with you to pick some!" Night Star Universe's enthusiastic suggestion, his eyes shining brightly like a large canine.

  Su Niannian was about to thank him when Gu Zichen interrupted, "No need, we're leaving now."

  Then he glanced at Su Nian with disgust and said, "Eating too much will make you fat."

  "...Suyuan was speechless again, feeling that her fragile little heart had been hurt once more."

  Yeqingya's eyes sparkled as she smiled and said, "How could that be? Nian has such a great figure every year. Xingyu, take Nian away quickly."

  "Alright, alright! Let's go, Year Ye." He didn't say anything else and pulled Su Ye by the arm. Su Ye felt a little moved and stole a glance at Gu Zichen.

  "Then I'll go first, Su Bao, see you later."

  Su Nian made a pitiful and cute expression towards him, but Gu Zichen was unmoved.

  What would she do without Gu Ze Chen?

  "It's okay, bro, you go first, I'll send Nian Nian home in a bit!"

  What's wrong with him! A lone man and a widow, together in the same car, Gu Zichen suddenly became uncomposed, narrowing his phoenix eyes to look at Su Niannian.

  He originally thought Su Nian would refuse with righteous words, then obediently follow him back. Unexpectedly, Su Nian nodded, "Then it's a pleasant decision, bye-bye, Gu Zichen."

  When she heard her ruthless "goodbye", Gu Zichen was completely stunned, standing still like a stone statue.

  Su Niannian and Ye Xingyu went happily to the orchard behind, leaving Ye Qingya smiling with her mouth closed.

  "Mr. Gu, have another cup of tea." She knew that Gu Zichen would definitely not leave, so she gave him an excuse to stay.

  Gu Zichen turned around with a cold expression, picked up the teacup and took a light sip, but his grip on the cup grew tighter.

  ——

  When Ye Xingyu and Su Nianian returned with baskets, beaming with joy, Gu Zichen's expression finally eased slightly.

  After saying goodbye to her siblings at home, Su Niannian and Gu Zichen started a tug-of-war in front of the car.

  Su Niannian wanted to take the cat on the bus, but Gu Zichen stopped her.

  "It dies with me, when I die!" Su Nian's face was puffed up with anger.

  "Where you go, it goes; where you stay, it stays."

  "Hey, can't I just hold the box?! It's so far away from you, it won't let your cat hair get on it!"

  Gu Zi Chen shook his head.

  Su Nian glared fiercely at Gu Zichen, trying to kill him with her eyes.

  A burst of electricity flashed between the two people.

  The two locked eyes, gazing at the overly clean and clear gaze, as well as the pink cheeks that were puffed up in anger. Gu Zichen uncomfortably looked away.

  "Never mind, I'll just let you have your way."
