Chapter 652: Chapter 652

"Is it because Mr. Zhuang is very afraid of women chasing after him?"

Zhuang Haoran glanced back, and seeing her slightly squinted eyes, which were full of playfulness, couldn’t help but be captivated. Her nature seemed somewhat indifferent and cool, but occasionally such subtle expressions, undeniable, added a glamorous hue to her clear beauty, like a rainbow firmly grabbing one’s gaze.

"Yes—" Zhuang Haoran secretly changed his tone, not daring to look into her eyes, only feeling his face burning up under her gaze.

Few people knew, no, almost no one knew his skin was very thin, had been that way since he was young. He was the type who easily felt shy and intimidated, especially around women he liked. For this reason, despite his wealth, he disliked exposure in the media, hesitated to interact with people, and preferred being alone.

"That version of the story, it’s actually true," Zhuang Haoran said, "But it wasn’t me, it was my older brother."

"Oh—" Gu Nuan said, with the look of realization, "It really doesn’t matter, Mr. Zhuang. You don’t need to tell me the truth. I’m just your investment advisor."

"No." Zhuang Haoran shook his head, "I don’t want to deceive you. Actually, I had intended to tell you everything when we met before—"

"Tell her what, what are you telling her?"

An unexpected voice interrupted Zhuang Haoran abruptly.

Gu Nuan almost held her head.

This Yebai, just like Sherlock Holmes, could smell something amiss from so far away and immediately run over here.

Xiao Yebai stood just a step away from them, arms crossed, looking at Zhuang Haoran with slanted eyes full of a devilish charm.

In this moment, Yebai was like a dog whose master was about to be taken away, angry, enraged, but not wanting his master to see these emotions, he could only show proud eyes, challenging the usurper.

Zhuang Haoran seemed a bit startled, his gaze falling upon Xiao Yebai’s overly handsome face, perhaps never expecting to encounter such a person.

Gu Nuan coughed lightly, introducing the two men to each other, "This is my husband, Mr. Xiao. — This is Mr. Zhuang, a friend of my professor from school."

Her husband? That means they’re married?

Zhuang Haoran’s shocked expression was written on his face. Clearly, he had not heard this news. It went without saying, as Gu Nuan’s marriage news hadn’t even reached Qiu Sangu’s ears.

But Yebai suddenly became furious. The expression on this man’s face was too obvious, wasn’t it? If he didn’t have designs on his wife, why would he look so regretful and pained when he heard she was married?

Just like a dog snatching back its owner, Yebai swiftly wrapped his arm around his wife’s waist, effectively declaring to the other man: No chance!

Zhuang Haoran’s face immediately turned a shade of green, and it was apparent he had never been in such an embarrassing situation.

Gu Nuan had no choice but to pinch Yebai’s arm and said to Zhuang Haoran, "Mr. Zhuang, let’s do this. If there’s anything, we’ll be in touch."

"Alright." Zhuang Haoran nodded, his expression quickly reverting to the usual calm and composed demeanor.

Yebai glared forcefully at her face: What did she say? She’s still going to be in contact with this man? Read complete versıon only at 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅✦𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾✦𝗇𝖾𝗍

Turning around, Gu Nuan led Yebai away from this contentious spot.

Back at their own seat, Gu Jinrong began to lecture the youngster, "He’s my client. I can’t just marry you and not have even a tiny bit of personal life. Right?"
