Chapter 589: Chapter 589

"Who are you, young man?"

Ou Yanan looked down upon hearing the voice, and saw a middle-aged auntie standing to the left, looking at him with a smile that was quite kind.

"I see you looking at the Gu Family’s windows. Don’t tell me you’re looking for Mr. Gu’s son-in-law, are you?" This aunt was obviously a neighbor of Gu’s parents, and she knew that aside from the pleasant-looking son-in-law who came to the Gu family, the friends he brought were also very attractive—all handsome men. And there, she mistook Ou Yanan as someone brought by Yebai.

Mr. Gu’s son-in-law? Was she referring to Xiao Yebai?

A certain serenity flashed in the depths of Ou Yanan’s eyes as he answered, "Yes."

That was his teacher’s boss; he was quite acquainted with him.

"Why don’t you call them? The whole family went out for a trip and won’t be back for two or three nights," the middle-aged aunt told him.

They’re not at home, huh?

A thought unexpectedly flashed through Ou Yanan’s mind: If they aren’t home, wouldn’t that be even better?

Although he wouldn’t meet her.

At the corner of the street opposite, a figure approached.

When the middle-aged aunt saw the silhouette, she let out a low grunt of displeasure.

Ou Yanan followed her gaze and saw that the person approaching was Wa Zicong.

Since Wa Zicong had once visited the hospital for an injury examination accompanied by Lin Yishan, Ou Yanan incidentally heard people say that this man was actually stolen from Gu Nuan by Lin Yishan.

He was Gu Nuan’s ex-boyfriend.

Without a doubt, the middle-aged aunt knew about this affair and recognized Wa Zicong, so she made a disdainful spitting sound and turned to avoid him.

Wa Zicong saw the aunt act as if she didn’t see him and leave, but there was no expression on his face; perhaps he hid his emotions very well.

When the aunt stepped aside, Wa Zicong saw Ou Yanan standing behind her.

Very familiar-looking, Wa Zicong pondered for a moment. With such striking appearance, he couldn’t possibly forget him.

"Doctor Ou?" Wa Zicong called out.

A doctor? In the midst of suspicion, the middle-aged aunt turned her head to glance at Ou Yanan.

This son-in-law of the Gu family has so many friends that even doctors are included?

And how exactly does this doctor know Wa Zicong?

Wa Zicong felt equally curious why this young doctor was standing at the entrance of the Gu family’s home. In that moment, a string of strange thoughts seemed to flash through his mind, and even an odd idea briefly passed in front of him.

Wa’s mother said, Gu Nuan had a brother who died. But Gu Nuan never told him about it. Even if it was too painful to bring up the past, there should be some traces left behind. Dıscover more novels at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝※𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖※𝕟𝕖𝕥

He has known the Gu family for so many years, yet he never discovered the fact that the Gu family had another son. Not only did Gu Nuan say nothing about it, but the parents didn’t either. What was more surprising was that there wasn’t a single trace of this son in the Gu family’s house.

Is Gu Nuan’s brother really dead?

Why didn’t the Gu family even pay respects at the son’s grave during Qingming Festival? That simply doesn’t make sense.

Wa Zicong’s eyes began to scan Ou Yanan’s features sharply.

Obviously noticing his gaze, Ou Yanan turned and, with his hands tucked into the pockets of his trench coat, prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute," Wa Zicong quickened his steps, laying a hand on Ou Yanan’s shoulder, "Dr. Ou, are you planning to visit here? I’m a local, I can be your tour guide."

Ou Yanan looked back at him coldly: A weasel paying a visit to a chicken for New Year’s—not with the best intentions.

Wa Zicong smiled, "Doctor Ou seems to have misunderstood me. Actually, I already broke up with my fiancée, the engagement is off. Because of this, I had a conflict with my mother and I’m living alone. The apartment I rented is a bit too big, and since you don’t seem to have a place to stay while here, would you like to stay at my place, maybe help me share the rent as well?"
