Gu Qi angrily lit up a cigarette, muttered, "Women are trouble", and then began to smoke in a depressed manner.

He suddenly realized that ever since that damnable woman Xin Nianyin had broken into his life, his addiction had gotten even stronger.

"Damn it!" With a low curse, Gu Qi roughly broke the cigarette in his hand.

"Third Young Master, Sophie is here. See you or not?"

Pei Zi Yun abruptly pushed the door open, and the undisguised look of Gu Qi entering the room entered his eyes.

Seeing this, Pei Zi Yun was even more certain that he truly cared about Xin Nianyin.

"Nope." Gu Qi's voice was low and lifeless.

"Alright, then I'll go and send her off."

Just as Pei Zi Yun was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by Gu Bo, "Wait, let her in."

Pei Zi Yun had expected this outcome and nodded to Gu Jianming.

Five minutes later, an extremely bewitching red wave woman appeared at the door of Gu's office.

The international model Sophie was destined to be the center of attention wherever she went. Even if she wore oversized sunglasses, it wouldn't be able to hide her soul-stirring charm.

As soon as Sophie entered the Gu Mansion, the employees below were already discussing her in whispers.

"Wow, an international model. She really lives up to her reputation. So the news on the internet is real. Sophie is really with our CEO."

The female employee said with a gossipy expression.

"Ah, poor young madam, to see her husband blatantly cheating on her."

The other female staff said with empathy.

Another female employee had a proud look on her face, "What does she have to be pitiful for? Being able to marry into one of the richest families in Shanghai like the Gu family is a blessing from my past life. Let alone a handsome man like Third Young Master, even if it's a bad old man, I would still be willing to marry."

Xin Nianyin just wanted to get a cup of coffee to drink, but she overheard the three women's conversation.

She couldn't help but mock herself. So in the eyes of others, it was her, Xin Nianyin, who had overstepped her boundaries. It was all thanks to her previous life that she had been able to marry into the Gu family.

"Ha!"

In other words, she really didn't know whether she was lucky or not?

Anyone who wanted to sit in this position of third young mistress could do so.

An international model, ah! She had seen it countless times in the magazines. Perhaps only this kind of woman was suitable for the Gu family.

If Gu Qi really had a relationship with Sophie, it would definitely be a relief for her.

However, there was a kind of uneasiness in her heart that suddenly made her despise herself.

On the other side, Gu Jiajie wasn't as popular as the others thought.

The relationship between Gu Wei and Sophie was not as "close to a good thing" as was rumored to be the case in the outside world.

On the night that the paparazzi caught her, Gu Jianming just dropped her off at the hotel and went back to the presidential suite she stayed in.

In those days, Gu Mai's mother died in a bizarre manner, and Gu Mai was immediately sent abroad.

It was a good name, but it was actually a disguised exile, thanks to Sophie's help during that time.

So Sophie's international status today was almost driven by her own fear.

The relationship between the two was more like that of a brother and sister than a lover.

Sophie was also the one who knew the most about the secret apart from Pei.

"What happened to you recently? I heard that things weren't going well for the company? "

As soon as Sophie walked in, she sat gracefully on the sofa, her hand unconsciously curling her wavy hair.

"From whom? I don't seem to be doing well right now? "

Gu Qi spread out her hands and casually said.

"OK."

Sophie shrugged and smiled politely. She knew better than anyone that no one could ask what she didn't want to say.

"Since there's nothing wrong, then accompany me for lunch. You are not allowed to refuse."

Sophie said, suddenly going over and holding her arm affectionately.

"Sophie, you know I …"

Gu Qi was somewhat helpless. Just as she wanted to say something, she was interrupted by Sophie.

After so many years, she already knew what Gu Bo wanted to say, but she didn't want to hear it.

"I know that you won't fall in love with me, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future? Aren't you in love with someone else now? "How about between us, let nature take its course?"

A woman, and a woman who had helped him before, said that she didn't want to be too tough on her.

Sophie liked him. He had known it all along, but he could not give her any promises, nor could he give her any.

At this time, Gu Qi had not yet seen through love. When he fell in love with a woman, he knew that if he truly loved a person, even if it was a tiger, a leopard or a wolf, they would still walk hand in hand.

Even if they were attacked by the whole world, they would still protect her.

"Why are you doing this?"

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Now, accompany me to eat."

Sophie tried to suppress the bitterness in her heart, trying to curry favor with him.

"What do you want to eat? I'll let you order it now. " Gu Qi asked as he opened the file.

But in his heart, he was thinking about Xin Nianyin. He wanted to see how long that stupid woman was going to be angry with him.

"Eat the Spanish food we used to eat."

Sophie said excitedly, and her hand went naturally to her arm.

Gu Wei also did not refuse, the gentleman put his hand into the trousers. He smiled and said, "Alright, let's go."

Handsome men and beautiful women were destined to attract the attention of the masses wherever they went.

Furthermore, Gu Jianming was determined to provoke some people, so he did his best to keep a high profile.

However, this time Gu Qi had made a mistake. Xin Nianyin didn't like him to begin with, not to mention that she had just received a call from someone she hadn't heard from for a long time.

The phone call was from Xin Nianyin's father. When he saw the familiar number, he suddenly froze.

If not for the word "father" clearly written on her phone, she would have forgotten that she still had a father.

When she thought about how her father had been involved in the theft of the dragon and turned the phoenix into the phoenix, she felt sorrowful from the bottom of her heart.

She had been married into the Gu family for so long, but her family had never come to her with a phone call or a message.

A tear rolled down her cheeks. She wiped it away stiffly and laughed at herself. Ever since her mother left, hadn't she been like this for so many years?

Xin Xinyin, what are you hoping for?

The phone kept ringing, as if it would last forever if she didn't answer it.

Xin Xinyin was holding the phone, her hands shaking.

After a long while, as if he had made a huge decision, he slowly picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Xin Xinyin, your wings have hardened?" Did I forget that you have a father? It took me so long to answer the phone. Did I die outside?! "

The shop owner cursed with his face covered, just like when he was at home.

Xin Nianyin suddenly didn't want to talk anymore.

"Xin Xinyin, speak!" Is he dead or is he mute? "

The other end of the phone did not get a reply as he scolded in a flustered manner.
