Chapter 1387: Is Gu Yuexi Coming to Capital City?
Gu Yuehan was entirely amused by their conversation. He had finally realized that being silly was a severe and contagious disease. Wen Xinya was a perfect example. He felt thankful for the fact that Yueze was his buddy and not him.
On the other hand, Si Yiyan watched smilingly as the two of them interacted. He rarely saw such an interesting and lively expression on Wen Xinya’s face.
Ignoring the look of resentment on Xu Xianghu’s face, Wen Xinya walked towards the couch opposite Si Yiyan and took a seat indignantly before complaining. “Xu Xianghu bullied me!”
Gu Yuehan almost spat his water out. However, he forced himself to swallow it because he didn’t want to ruin his image. The water made his throat feel extremely uncomfortable.
Xu Xianghu widened his eyes in shock and stared at her in disbelief. Astonishment was written all over his face.
Si Yiyan stroked her head and said, “We’ll punish him by making him wash Yueze’s underwear for another month. What do you think?”
Xu Xianghu snapped out of his trance and wailed pitifully. “Don’t, Boss…”
Who did I provoke again this time? Why am I the one being hurt all the time?
Xu Xianghu could sense the evilness of this world. He felt a sudden urge to squat by the wall and hide himself.
Wen Xinya applauded merrily and said, “Good idea. It’s settled, then.”
Who told Xu Xianghu to tease me?
Dear, is it really appropriate for you to be maligning Xu Xianghu like this?
Weren’t you just duped because you were eager to get some gossip?
Xu Xianghu stared at Wen Xinya with a look of resentment and said feebly, “Sis-in-law, you shouldn’t bully me like that!”
Gu Yuehan stopped trying to contain his laughter. Instead, he stared at Xu Xianghu with a straight face, seemingly trying to tell him that he deserved to be punished for bluffing Sis-in-law.
Besides, Xu Xianghu was the reason he had been neglected ever since she entered. Of course he wouldn’t spare Xu Xianghu.
Gu Yuehan pulled Xu Xianghu away. When he left, Xu Xianghu gave Wen Xinya a pitiful look.
Wen Xinya replied with an innocent look.
After the two of them left, Wen Xinya snuggled into Si Yiyan’s embrace and asked, “Why did Xu Xianghu come here? Did something go wrong with our plan?”
She and Si Yiyan had devised Plan S that was to be used to deal with the Korean-Chinese Alliance. There could not be any blunders.
Si Yiyan answered, “Gu Yuexi has gone back to Italy and I’ve instructed Yueze to take over the matters at Lucifer, so Xu Xianghu scurried back to Capital city like a freed stallion.”
Gu Yuexi had been managing Lucifer for three years, during which Yueze and Xu Xianghu both had tough time. However, the effects were obvious and Yueze had now been trained to manage everything by himself. Gu Yuexi only left after making sure that Yueze had made the cut.
Wen Xinya nodded and asked curiously, “Why did Gu Yuexi go back to Italy? We still haven’t gotten rid of the snitches that the Korean-Chinese Alliance planted in Lucifer. Does he really feel safe about leaving Lucifer in Yueze’s care?”
Yueze was undoubtedly a strong and competent person. However, there was still some room for improvement and he was still inferior compared to the ingenious Gu Yuexi. They had already gotten rid of most of the snitches, but Lucifer had been laying low because they planned to get rid of all the snitches completely.
“Gu Yuexi has to take part in Plan S. Hence, Yueze will be in charge of Lucifer for now. He can handle it.” Besides, Si Yiyan was the real leader of Lucifer and even though he had been staying in Capital city for a long time, he was still involved with the matters in Lucifer and Xiasi Group.
He would usually handle the less urgent doc.u.ments before handing them to Gu Yuehan. As for the more urgent ones, he would solve them during video conferences.
Greatly taken aback, Wen Xinya frantically asked, “Is Gu Yuexi going to come to Capital city, then?”
Wen Xinya was extremely curious about Gu Yuexi. Although he was Si Yiyan’s able a.s.sistant, he was actually like his friend because Si Yiyan trusted him.
According to Xu Xianghu, Gu Yuexi treated Si Yiyan like a religion that he wors.h.i.+ped. She knew that Gu Yuexi was very loyal and faithful towards him. Nothing could change his willpower.
Hence, she was looking forward to meeting him.
“Yes, he’ll be here in a while,” Si Yiyan answered.
Wen Xinya did not probe any further. She knew that she would get to see Gu Yuexi sooner or later, anyway.
Si Yiyan gently raised her chin and bit her lip tightly. “You’re not being obedient!”
“Ouch, it hurts!” Wen Xinya shrieked in pain before staring at Si Yiyan pitifully.
Si Yiyan sucked and nibbled on her ear before asking in a m.u.f.fled voice, “Don’t you remember what you promised me?”
Wen Xinya made numerous promises to him and hence, could not answer him immediately because she didn’t know what he was referring to. “What do you mean?”
Wen Xinya racked her brains and tried to think about what she had done to upset him. However, she would definitely have a hard time if the vicious Si Yiyan found out that she had forgotten about something.
Si Yiyan bit her ear forcefully.
Wen Xinya almost teared up in pain. “I remember it now. I’ll bring Liu Yanhua with me when I go out again next time. I won’t go out alone.”
She headed out straight to look for Gu Junling and Zhou Tianyu bright early in the morning and hence, she did not do anything naughty apart from going out alone.
After what happened at the jewelry exhibition, Si Yiyan had been very concerned about her safety and he would make her bring Liu Yanhua along whenever she went out. Liu Yanhua had even moved to the Mo Family home for convenience’s sake.
Si Yiyan bit her ear and exclaimed, “It’s too late. You have to be punished for being naughty!”
Wen Xinya disliked bringing someone along with her wherever she went. Due to the fact that she was not respected by the Wen Family at the start, they did not even a.s.sign her a chauffeur. She thought that it was only right for them not to do so and hence, she did not raise such a request to the Wen Family. However, she then got kidnapped, which almost resulted in dire consequences.
She did not remember her lesson at all, though.
