Chapter 225: The Jealous Lu Ye Is Too Terrifying
Indeed, despite Bai Changle’s rather goofy nature, he was actually quite nice as a person.
He was credible and had principles.
Otherwise, Lu Ye wouldn’t have befriended him in the first place.
He was straightforward.
Compared to Lin Haoran, who was always subliminal, he was better by a long stretch.
Lu Ye stared at him for quite some time, before slowly asking, “Don’t you already have a little sister in Bai Weiyang? Never did I see you treat her nicely. You have to realize you’re treating Gu Yan better than your actual sister, Bai Weiyang.”
Bai Changle, in his defense, said, “That’s not the point. In a way, Gu Yan is more understanding than Bai Weiyang. Furthermore, her eyes are much better than Bai Weiyang.”
Bai Changle knew how to talk. What he said surely made Captain Lu happy.
Bai Weiyang liked Lin Haoran, while Gu Yan liked Lu Ye.
Lu Ye smiled genuinely at Bai Changle. “Your eyes are quite good.”
Bai Changle smiled in return, and subtly let out a sigh of relief.
The jealous Lu Ye… was tough to handle.
Meanwhile, as the two were chatting outside, Xie Luan asked Gu Yan curiously, “Gu Yan, do you have something that you want to ask me alone?”
“Aunty Xie, you mentioned that you wanted to take me as your G.o.ddaughter… I’m actually very happy about it. But I have some concerns.”
“Oh, please do tell me what concerns you”. Xie Luan was ecstatic upon hearing that Gu Yan was willing. She leaned forward and asked, “What are these concerns? I’ll see if I can help.”
“I don’t know if you’re aware or if Captain Bai had mentioned anything to you before. Bai Weiyang and I have some misunderstanding.”. Gu Yan put her head down. A hint of pain drew from her voice as she spoke of the issue.
Xie Luan’s brows relaxed “Oh, Changle has mentioned this before. If I remember correctly, it was because of Lin Haoran and Lin Xiaoyu, right? I don’t blame you for that. Weiyang is protective of Lin Haoran. He is her fiance after all. They’ve decided to get married next year.”
“Yes.” Gu Yan nodded. She wondered if Lin Haoran would still show interest towards Bai Weiyang if she wasn’t from the Bai family.
But in all honesty, Gu Yan felt Lin Haoran and Bai Weiyang make a good match. She genuinely hoped the two would get married.
They shared similar characteristics. It was in everyone’s best interest.
Xie Luan immediately said, “I want you to be my G.o.ddaughter. It has nothing to do with Weiyang and Haoran. If you don’t want them to know, that’s fine too. At most, Changle would be the only person to know. Will that work?”
“Sure.” Gu Yan agreed. She didn’t want Bai Weiyang startled.
Meanwhile, she could also use this opportunity to treat Xie Luan’s illness.
Xie Luan’s eyes smiled as soon as she saw Gu Yan’s smile. “Then, are you willing to call me G.o.dmother?”
‘I actually want to call you mom more,’ Gu Yan told herself.
She bit her lips and said, “G.o.dmother.”
“Aye.” Xie Luan was elated.
So was Gu Yan. She had never experienced any form of maternal love in her two lifetimes.
She was suddenly reminded of the jade pendant on her neck. “G.o.dmother, I heard from Captain Bai that your headaches are recurrent. I was able to learn some sort of ma.s.sage to ease the pain. Allow me to help you.”
