Campus Ace Girl

Lin Shuang smiled slightly, "I know, you’re the big brother of Mr. Wang."

Wang Kefu scratched his head, "Xiao Lin, your memory is really good. Seems like we’ve only met once or twice."

Lin Shuang just smiled without saying anything.

Wang Kefu’s eyes were heated, so envious of his younger brother. How could he not cherish such an acquaintance?

Though he dared not act, getting a bit closer to a beauty is still good, especially one who has a similar aura to Lu Heng. So he said familiarly, "Xiao Lin, we haven’t seen each other for many years. How about I host a dinner tonight, just the three of us to catch up..."

Before Lin Shuang could refuse, he insinuated, "We’re all family, no need to be polite. Not just for business, but to catch up. These years since you left Jiangcheng, Kegui has been worried, fearing you’re not doing well."

By now, Lin Shuang understood. It’s not about catching up, it’s clearly a threat. She’s known for a while that the eldest of the Wang Family is a scoundrel, but didn’t expect him to become even more shameless over the years. Fortunately, out of respect for Wang Kegui, he showed some courtesy.

At this, Lin Shuang smiled lightly, "Alright, see you tonight then. I’m heading back first."

With that, she handed a business card to Wang Kegui.

As Wang Kegui looked down at it, Wang Kefu coughed lightly from the side, "Second brother, not to nag, but Xiao Lin’s given you her card. Be more proactive, a man shouldn’t be so shy."

Lin Shuang laughed, "I have Mr. Wang’s contact, he’s essentially the bread and butter of our company, how could I neglect him?"

With this, Wang Kefu laughed and said, "Xiao Lin, you’ve gotten quite good at making polite conversation. It wasn’t like this before, back when you and our family..."

Seeing him getting more inappropriate, Wang Kegui finally spoke up, "Lin Shuang, you should head back, it’s getting late."

Lin Shuang nodded gracefully and left.

Wang Kefu stared blankly at her departing figure, swallowed, and asked his younger brother, ’Any thoughts?’

Wang Kegui simply said, "Nothing to think about."

He walked into the elevator, noticing from the corner of his eyes that everyone in the lobby was secretly watching him. It made him a bit uncomfortable, as the story between him and Lin Shuang had spread within the Wang Group. Naturally, old employees knew about it from a decade ago, and now she’s back, drawing attention.

It’s not Gu Xiufen’s knowledge he feared, but how it might affect Lin Shuang.

He stood in the elevator, lost in thought. At this moment, Wang Kefu, who followed him, coughed lightly, "Did you have a good talk with her?"

"Talk about what?"

"Like whether she’s married over the years, had any men, if she still has feelings for you." Wang Kefu asked eagerly.

Wang Kegui adjusted his attire in the mirror, then said, "Brother, you should focus more on your performance, don’t always think about these trivial things."

Just then, the elevator reached the floor, and as he walked out, Wang Kefu immediately chased after, shouting: "Kegui, I don’t believe you have no feelings left in your heart. She’s way better than the one at home. Hey... don’t walk away, Wang Kegui, aren’t you a man?"

Wang Kegui stopped in his tracks.

The eldest of the Wang Family put his hand on his shoulder, grinning maliciously, "I mean, if you like her, why not act on it? If your wife were a good one, I’d not say a thing, but she’s clearly a tigress, both poisonous and sinister, are you staying with her to redeem her or what?"

Wang Kegui glanced at him, then entered the office, slamming the door shut and leaving Wang Kefu outside.

Wang Kefu left disgruntled, rubbing his nose, "Feigning dignity, I don’t believe you feel nothing."

Pondering the woman again, she truly is a beauty of the world.

He hummed a tune on his way back to his office, eager to make a little report, not to someone else, but precisely to Gu Anxi.

Gu Anxi was at home recuperating and somewhat bored when Wang Kefu’s call came, rambling on about Lin Shuang and Wang Kegui, ending with: "Anxi, I’m not bragging, but Kegui might stumble at this beauty barrier."

Gu Anxi smiled faintly, "Is she that formidable?"

Wang Kefu immediately craved acknowledgment, praising Lin Shuang’s beauty to high heavens, as if only heavenly, but eventually added, "Naturally, compared to you Anxi, she’s older, but still charming. Our Kegui might not withstand."

Gu Anxi lay on the sofa, speaking slowly, "Then you must assist him."

Wang Kefu shivered, "Anxi, we indeed think alike, today I’ll put effort into matchmaking them."

He then said gleefully, "I’m truly a great elder brother."

Gu Anxi was simply speechless, watching in amazement, coughing lightly, "I meant you should help second uncle preserve his family."

Feeling a bit deflated, Wang Kefu responded insincerely, "Of course, that goes without saying."

Gu Anxi knew exactly what was on his mind, smiled, ’Alright, I’m going to take a nap now.’

Wang Kefu felt a bit aggrieved, "It’s hard to get a word with you, and we’ve barely spoken."

Patiently, Gu Anxi let him ramble a bit more, praised him a few times, and Wang Kefu immediately became pleased.

After hanging up, Mrs. Bo came over with a cup of tonic.

Putting it down, she picked up a cushion and placed it behind Gu Anxi, "Drink some, Aunt Zhang made this with her own hands, she said you’d surely like it."

Since becoming pregnant, Gu Anxi had become picky about her tastes. Aunt Zhang always found ways to please her, and sure enough, this soup was very much to her liking. Gu Anxi sipped it slowly, and Mrs. Bo accompanied her, chatting to pass the time, "Was that your uncle on the phone earlier?"

Gu Anxi acknowledged with a hum.

Mrs. Bo smiled, "Besides his fondness for pretty women, he doesn’t have too many other flaws."

Gu Anxi had no way to respond to that, merely smiling.

After a moment, she remarked, "My second uncle is alright."

Having almost finished eating, Mrs. Bo took the bowl from her hand, "Except for the unseemly wife. With someone like that beside him, your second uncle might never have peace."

Gu Anxi lightly smiled, "You noticed?"

Mrs. Bo pinched her cheek, "What can you hide from me? When she visited our house last time, you were very distant. Plus, the community surveillance footage was lost, I suspect she had ways to erase it."

"No, it was me who deleted it." Gu Anxi said calmly.

Mrs. Bo was surprised, "Anxi, it was you?"

Gu Anxi smiled, "Yes, it was me, I watched it once."

"Was it her?" Mrs. Bo hesitated before asking.
