Free Web NovelChapter 1965: Chapter 1965: Where’s Your Boyfriend?
Facing Gu Xiyue’s cold eyes, Ling Yuanzhou felt a chill down his spine, but he still braced himself and said, "I have something to ask you."
Gu Xiyue remained silent, watching Ling Yuanzhou, waiting for him to continue.
Ling Yuanzhou: "What is your relationship with Miss Ling Piaomu?"
"It’s none of your business." Gu Xiyue replied, moving two steps to the side, directly bypassing Ling Yuanzhou and heading into the house.
Seeing this, Ling Yuanzhou immediately chased after her.
"You’re friends, aren’t you? You have her contact information, right?"
"Give me her contact information."
He was utterly rude, with a tone so forceful it sounded like a command.
Hearing this tone, Gu Xiyue furrowed her brows slightly, stopped in her tracks, and glanced back at him.
Seeing Gu Xiyue stop, Ling Yuanzhou felt a moment of joy, thinking Gu Xiyue was going to give him Ling Piaomu’s contact information.
Who knew Gu Xiyue would just glance at him coldly and say, "Ask her yourself."
Then she turned and entered the house.
Ling Yuanzhou stood there, slightly stunned, then chased after Gu Xiyue into the house.
As soon as Gu Xiyue entered the house, she met Ling Piaomu.
"Yueyue, where have you been? I’ve been looking for you for ages."
Ling Piaomu said, reaching out to hold Gu Xiyue’s arm.
Gu Xiyue looked at Ling Piaomu and said, "Just now someone practically ordered me to give him your contact information."
Ling Piaomu: ?
Ordered?
Gu Xiyue: "Ling Yuanzhou, how do you know him? Is he also your brother?"
Ling Piaomu naturally knew why Gu Xiyue used "also."
Last year, Ling Mufeng had used the pretense of being her brother to establish a rapport with Jiang Qi and later did quite a few shady things in her and Gu Xiyue’s names.
So, Ling Piaomu instinctively shook her head, "No, not familiar."
Gu Xiyue: "Stay away from dim-witted folk, otherwise you’ll catch their stupidity."
Ling Piaomu rarely heard Gu Xiyue curse, but if she did, it surely wasn’t directed at a decent person.
Thus, she immediately nodded to Gu Xiyue, "Definitely."
At this moment, Ling Yuanzhou had chased them inside from outside.
As soon as he saw Ling Piaomu, his eyes lit up, "Miss Ling."
Ling Piaomu gave Ling Yuanzhou a polite nod, then said, "I’ve got something to do, not talking now."
Then, she walked away with Gu Xiyue.
Ling Yuanzhou was left standing alone, dazed.
Ling Piaomu’s aloofness towards him was something Ling Yuanzhou felt.
But why?
Clearly, they had chatted nicely in the morning, so how come within a day...
The hand by his side clenched tightly, then loosened, and tightened again, but eventually he let it hang in defeat as he turned to leave.

Many guests had already left.
However, on Gu Xiyue’s side, Gu Zhiqi had quite a few friends who hadn’t left, instead staying at the Gu Family’s house.
Seeing the two of them with so many friends, while he... hadn’t a single friend come, Gu Xingruo felt a bit despondent.
He thought everyone was friendless, like him, but they had been secretly befriending others behind his back.
One by one, Gu Zhiqi’s friends tried to chat with him, but after exchanging a few words with them, he couldn’t stand it anymore and had them play mahjong at a few tables.
Once his ears finally cleared of the noise, Gu Xingruo came over.
"Hey! Where’s your boyfriend? Why isn’t he here?" Gu Xingruo suspiciously sidled up to Gu Zhiqi and asked.
Not only did he abduct a minor, but didn’t come to the coming-of-age ceremony?
Definitely not a good guy.
Perhaps guessing Gu Xingruo’s thoughts, Gu Zhiqi turned to look at him and replied, "He’s off defending the country."
