Gu Yunting paused in his drinking, then continued. Ye Wan could only sit by him with restraint. Seeing him finish, she poured him more wine, hoping he would calm down soon, and ideally, reinstate Sun Ma’s position.
Ye Wan’s phone rang. She took it out and glanced at it. It was the owner of the jewelry store from today, saying there was a small issue with her ring and asking if she could meet.
"Sorry, it's not convenient to meet. Is there a problem with the ring?" Ye Wan quickly replied.
Gu Yunting seemed to be talking to Jiang Jingxiu, not looking at Ye Wan. In reality, most of his attention was on her. So, when her phone rang, he noticed. Seeing her turn away from him to reply to a message, he frowned.
After replying, Ye Wan put her phone back in her pocket and turned to pour Gu Yunting more wine. Her ring had been fine when she left today; how could there be a problem?
The phone rang again. Ye Wan took it out and read the message. The owner said it was a minor issue, that she would handle it, and Ye Wan could pick up the ring tomorrow afternoon.
The young man thought she would definitely come to pick it up after school, and then he could ask her out for a meal.
Seeing his reply, Ye Wan breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a single word, "Okay, thank you."
After replying, she looked up and saw Gu Yunting's gloomy gaze. She quickly shoved her phone into her pocket and picked up the wine bottle to pour him more.
"Whose message was that?" Gu Yunting demanded.
"No one... just a classmate." Ye Wan didn't want Gu Yunting to know she had ordered a custom ring. She wanted it to be a surprise for him.
"Learned to lie now?" Gu Yunting sneered, clearly displeased.
"I..."
Ye Wan wanted to explain, but Gu Yunting had already turned away and was ignoring her. He only drank more fiercely. Since she didn't want to say, he wouldn't force her. He would let her say whatever she wanted.
"You, come over and pour wine!" Gu Yunting looked at the woman sitting on the other side.
The woman's eyes instantly lit up. She had been eyeing Mr. Gu for a long time; to her, Mr. Gu was a prize.
The woman immediately stood up and sashayed over, smiling at Ye Wan. "Little sister, hurry up and move aside. Let this sister show you how to pour wine for a man."
Ye Wan could only get up and leave helplessly, not looking back, going elsewhere. She thought that since Gu Yunting didn't want to see her now, she leaving might make him less angry.
Little did she know, her easy concession of the seat made Gu Yunting even angrier, and he drank glass after glass!
Jiang Jingxiu...
Can't these two rivals behave normally!
Gu Yunting, why are you being so tsundere? You clearly don't want her to leave, but you drove her away!
Ye Wan is also too straightforward. You let her leave, and she left? Don't you know your man is having a tantrum here? Can't you act coy and appease him?!
These two are too frightening! He needs to drink more to calm his nerves!!
Seeing Ye Wan suddenly move away from Gu Yunting, Jin Lan quickly pushed away a few friends and walked towards Ye Wan. He was afraid that some foolish person might try to flirt with Ye Wan and cause a fatal incident!
"What's going on? Why did you come over here?" Jin Lan sat next to Ye Wan and asked.
"Gu Yunting told me to leave. I was afraid he'd be angry, so I came over here first," Ye Wan explained, taking a few sips of a beverage.
Just as Jin Lan was about to say something, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw it was his nephew's call. His nephew had said today that he was bringing his girlfriend to meet him.
"Hello? Come straight in when you arrive."
