The CEO is domineering, the devil Boss is addicted to pampering

Chapter 1306 Yunrui Juanchen: Shadows of Three People in One House

This realization made Yang Xiaotang's heart skip a beat and her cheeks instantly became hot.

She walked quickly into the bedroom and saw an open book on the bedside table. It was Camus's "The Outsider". There were faint creases on the edges of the pages, obviously it had been turned many times.

There were several men's suits and casual shirts hanging in the closet, and the air was filled with a faint scent of cedar - the scent of Qi Ruixiang's usual perfume.

Yang Xiaotang stroked the collar of his shirt with her fingers, imagining how he would look in it, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

She didn't expect Gu Yunqian to be so sensible, but when she walked into the bathroom, this idea was overturned.

There was a bottle of cherry blossom scented shower gel on the sink, and next to it was a pink lipstick, the color she had seen in a magazine that attracted men.

There were several sticky notes stuck to the edge of the mirror, with neat handwriting: "Breakfast meeting at 9 a.m., golf at 2 p.m."

This is clearly a girl's handwriting.

Yang Xiaotang's fingertips stopped on the sticky note, and her heart felt like a bucket of cold water was poured on her.

If it’s not Qi Ruixiang’s residence, then whose is it?

She walked out of the bathroom and looked around the apartment again, her eyes falling on the photo on the living room wall - it was a group photo, a girl in a white coat standing next to Qi Ruixiang, both of them smiling at the camera, with the London Eye in the background.

It’s Gu Yunxi!

Yang Xiaotang's breathing suddenly became rapid.

In the photo, Gu Yunxi was smiling with her eyes curved, and Qi Ruixiang's gaze fell on her, so gentle that it seemed as if water could drip out.

It turned out that this was Gu Yunxi's residence, and Gu Yunqian actually arranged her to live in Gu Yunxi's apartment!

What on earth does he want to do?

She fell onto the sofa, her mind in a mess.

Gu Yunqian couldn't be so cruel as to put her under the same roof with Qi Ruixiang and Gu Yunxi.

Yang Xiaotang turned his gaze to the window and saw that the lights were on in the apartment next door.

The curtains were not drawn tightly, and a figure could be seen walking inside, who looked very much like Qi Ruixiang.

Her heartbeat began to accelerate again. Could it be that he lived across the street?

This guess made her unable to sit still. She walked to the window, carefully pulled open a corner of the curtain, and stared at the window next door.

After a while, the figure walked to the window and opened the curtains - it was not Qi Ruixiang, but a strange girl wearing a business suit, who was talking on the phone with a serious expression.

Yang Xiaotang let go of the curtains in disappointment and turned to go back to the bedroom, but heard a slight "click" from the door lock.

She was so frightened that her whole body froze. Could it be that Gu Yunxi had returned?

The door was pushed open, and a girl in a beige windbreaker walked in. Seeing Yang Xiaotang in the living room, she was also stunned. "You are..." The girl's voice was very gentle, with a hint of surprise.

Yang Xiaotang looked at the girl in front of him and suddenly remembered the person in his fragmented memories - it was her! The girl who often stood next to Qi Ruixiang at work!

"I'm Yang Xiaotang." Her voice trembled. "Boss Gu said... that this is the place he arranged for me to live."

The girl finally understood and smiled as she extended her hand. "Hello, I'm Yan Wanqing, responsible for projects at Miaoyin Media's UK branch. Mr. Gu mentioned you to me, and I didn't expect you to be here today."

Yang Xiaotang held her hand, feeling the warmth of her fingertips. "I'm sorry, I didn't know this was your apartment and barged in."

"It doesn't matter. This is no different from the staff dormitory."

Yan Wanqing put down the documents in her hand,

"Boss Gu told you to stay here. I wanted to clean it up before you came." She pointed to a few cardboard boxes in the corner. "But I was too busy with work and didn't have time. I'm sorry to bother you."

Yang Xiaotang looked at the cardboard boxes and suddenly understood.

This is not Qi Ruixiang's residence, nor is it Gu Yunxi's, but Yan Wanqing's.

Gu Yunqian let her live here so that Yan Wanqing could take care of her. This discovery made her feel relieved, but also a little disappointed.

"You just arrived, you must be exhausted, right?" Yan Wanqing poured her a glass of warm water. "I ordered takeout from a famous Chinese restaurant nearby. Would you like to try it?"

Yang Xiaotang took the cup of water, and as her fingertips touched the warm wall, the uneasiness in her heart gradually dissipated. "Thank you, Miss Yan."

"Just call me Wanqing." Yan Wanqing sat down opposite her and looked at her pale face. "Mr. Gu said you haven't been feeling well recently. Come to the UK just to relax. Don't worry about other things. Get your body back in shape first."

Yang Xiaotang's eyes darkened at Yan Wanqing's words. "I... I actually... I've actually been thinking about changing careers, but you know it's hard to find a job these days."

"It's okay, everyone goes through this." Yan Wanqing smiled. "There's a lot of people changing careers these days, so don't worry too much. You can't just live for work." She paused, her tone softening. "Actually... Mr. Gu asked me to take care of you, not just for work."

Yang Xiaotang's heart skipped a beat. She lowered her head and looked at the water in the glass. "I know. It's because of Qi Ruixiang."

Yan Wanqing didn't deny it, but just sighed: "Xiaotang, there are some things I shouldn't say, but I want to kindly advise you that Ruixiang... has someone in his heart."

Yang Xiaotang's fingertips clenched the water glass tightly, her knuckles turning white. "It's Gu Yunxi, right?"

Yan Wanqing nodded. "Although they've been pushing each other back and forth and haven't settled down for so long, Ruixiang's visit to the UK this time has clearly shown his attitude."

"If that's the case, why don't you just get together? Why don't you make it official? Why do you have to provoke me in the middle of it?"

Yang Xiaotang protested to the extreme, squeezing out the words from between her teeth as if she was afraid of being heard. "He doesn't like that I gave me some room to imagine and let me attend the Gu family's banquet as a female companion."

Yan Wanqing felt bad watching her feigning composure. "He's wrong. He shouldn't have used you. But why are you using the truth to hurt yourself?"

Yang Xiaotang raised her head, looked into Yan Wanqing's sincere eyes, and suddenly smiled. "Because my heart is in turmoil. I want to live a good life, but he is in my mind and I can't get rid of him."

Yan Wanqing took a deep breath as she watched Yang Xiaotang's stubborn expression. She knew that no matter how much she said, it would be useless. The two of them would just remain in this stalemate...

The impasse was finally broken when the takeout arrived: steaming hot Kung Pao chicken and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Yang Xiaotang picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork, and put it in her mouth. The familiar taste brought tears to her eyes.

It turns out that you can taste the taste of home even in a foreign country.

Yan Wanqing looked at her eating with big mouthfuls and smiled with relief.

She knew that Yang Xiaotang needed time to heal her wounds, but she believed that this brave girl would be able to get over it.

After dinner, Yan Wanqing helped Yang Xiaotang clean up the bedroom. "Go to bed early. I'll take you to familiarize yourself with the environment tomorrow."

"Thank you, Wanqing." Yang Xiaotang looked at her back and suddenly felt much more at ease.

When Yan Wanqing walked out of the bedroom, she turned around and smiled at her: "Good night."

The moment the door closed, Yang Xiaotang lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling.

The night in London is very quiet, and the only sound you can hear is the occasional car noise outside the window.

She thought of Yan Wanqing's words and the smiles of Qi Ruixiang and Gu Yunxi in the photo, and her heart ached. Yan Wanqing lived in the house where Qi Ruixiang had lived, so Qi Ruixiang should be living with Gu Yunxi, right?
