The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 353 Why is the gap between people so big?

Ye family.

"Xiao Lin, you and Jian Xi should both try this Yangtze River knife fish. This is authentic Yangtze River knife fish, and it tastes better than river knife fish and lake knife fish."

At the dinner table, Ye Chuanping said with a smile on her face.

Jian Xi nodded and said "OK" with a smile. Lin Quan, who came with him, smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, Aunt Ye."

"It's okay, today is just a family dinner." Ye Chuanping chuckled, "It's a pity that the chef said that the Yangtze River knife fish tastes best around the Qingming Festival. Now it's not the right time, so the taste is a little bit worse."

"Aunt Ye, it's called a family dinner, but I always feel it's very grand every time I come here." Jian Xi smiled and removed the bones from the fish, then gave the fish to Little Green Tea. "I feel a little embarrassed to come here alone and eat such a good meal, so I'll bring Ah Quan here to try it this time."

"As for food, clothing, housing and transportation, none of them can be neglected. Family banquets must also focus on the word 'banquet'. They can't be the same as those of some small families." When Ye Chuanping said the last sentence, she glanced at Haodaer next to her. When she saw the other person's calm expression, she felt even happier.

After a pause, she continued to look at Jian Xi and Lin Quan and said, "Since you call me aunt, it's rare for you to bring your girlfriend here this time, so I naturally have to take it to heart. Xiao Lin is a good kid at first glance, you can bring her over to play more often in the future."

"Thank you, Aunt Ye." Lin Quan smiled shyly, put his hand under the table and pinched his sweetheart beside him.

But she knew that Lin Xiao had never been brought here by Jian Xi. Since Gong Ming's birthday party, in the eyes of the outside world, Jian Xi's girlfriend was her, Lin Quan, not Lin Xiao.

Woman, I beat you so much!

After noticing Xiao Lu Cha's hand under the table, Jian Xi smiled. He naturally understood what the other party was thinking.

As a core member of Gu Li's small circle, Lin Xiao would naturally not be liked by Ye Chuanping due to his hatred for the whole family. However, since Ye Chuanping had her own reasons, she would not say anything, and she would not bring Lin Xiao here to make herself look bad.

And because of Gu Li, Lin Xiao also dislikes Ye Chuanping, the old witch.

Well... in the Times Sisters group, they all agreed that Ye Chuanping was an old witch who only caused trouble for the queen’s best friend who was pursuing love!
Unfortunately, the witch of the Ye family is still around, but she is no longer the one who chased her lover away.

Jian Xi glanced at his good brother who looked a little confused, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Gu Li was really cruel. He broke up the small circle in a simple and rough way.

At this moment, besides her younger brother Gu Zhun, the only person by Gu Li's side is Lin Xiao, who is determined to stay with her no matter what.

Affected by Gu Li's incident these two days, Lin Xiao's appetite has become smaller, and even the granary feels a little shrunk, which makes the dog man feel a little distressed.

Except for Gu Yuan, everyone else at the table was chatting and eating casually. They didn't talk about work or relationships, and the atmosphere was harmonious for a while.

"I'm done eating."

But at this moment, Gu Yuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly put down his chopsticks and said, "Jian Xi, you and Lin Quan eat slowly."

Then she stood up and left as Ye Chuanping's face suddenly darkened.

"You have no manners at all. You have forgotten everything I taught you before, right?"

Ye Chuanping spoke coldly, but Gu Yuan acted as if he didn't hear her and walked out of the restaurant directly.

The atmosphere at the table was a little low for a moment. Jian Xi smiled and comforted her, "It's okay, Aunt Ye. Gu Yuan just broke up with her, so it's normal for him to feel a little down."

"I know." Ye Chuanping took a sip of wine, his face still not looking good, and said, "I also know that he turned his face away because I just mentioned a woman from a small family and irritated him."

After a pause, Ye Chuanping snorted again: "No future!"

"..."

Well, if I can’t answer the call, the atmosphere will become tense again. Lin Quan even stopped peeling shrimps.

Only then did Ye Chuanping soften her tone and said, "It's okay, leave him alone, we'll eat our food."

"Auntie Ye, don't be too angry. It's normal to have a period of pain after a breakup. It will be fine after a while." Jian Xi said with a smile.

"I told him a long time ago to stop getting involved with Gu Li, but he refused to listen. Now has he learned his lesson?" This was the first time that Jian Xi heard the name Gu Li from Ye Chuanping since he came to the Ye family.

It can be seen that Ye Chuanping was in a mixed state of happiness and unhappiness about the breakup with Haodaer.

The good thing is that Haodaer finally broke up with Gu Li, and that guy who was incompatible with her can no longer bother her family.

When she heard the news, she felt even more excited than when her plans went smoothly during this period. It was like a huge burden was lifted from her mind.

She had originally planned to deal with the affairs of her eldest son and Gu Li after finishing the current matters, without having to do too much on her own. She had not exposed Sheng Gu's problem just to test the Gong family, and would just send Gu Li in as well.

But now it seems that he has saved some energy, as Gu Li took the initiative to get rid of Hao Da'er.

And this is also what makes her unhappy. It would be really embarrassing to be dumped like this!

Although I have always been against these two people being together, they have been dating for so many years. I got Gu Yuan engaged and found fault with Gu Li, but I couldn't break them up. As a result, when they were about to break through my blockade and get married, they suddenly broke up.

Although she hated Gu Li and had been opposing it over the years, she had to admit that she really believed that the relationship between Gu Yuan and Gu Li was stronger than gold, and Gu Li's feelings for Gu Yuan were so deep that even she found it difficult to deal with.

But no one expected that this damned Gu Li would fall in love with someone else.

Seeing how Hao'er looked now, Ye Chuanping couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards him for not fighting for his chance, and her resentment towards Gu Li also deepened.

The heir of the Ye family was toyed with by a woman like this?
Thinking of this, Ye Chuanping couldn't help but shift his gaze to Jian Xi, and saw Lin Quan beside him carefully peeling shrimp for him...

Why is there such a big gap between this person and others?

Jian Xi is having two relationships at the same time, no, she is having three relationships at the same time and she is still doing somersaults in the waves. But her own grown son is being treated like a dog by a woman!
"Jianxi."

Hearing Ye Chuanping calling him, Jian Xi turned around and asked, "What's wrong, Aunt Ye?"

"You've seen how Gu Yuan is now. He still won't let me get involved in his emotional affairs, so Aunt Ye can only ask you for help."

Jian Xi looked a little strange when she heard this, but she still smiled and nodded, "I understand, Aunt Ye, I will help Gu Yuan get over the shadow of heartbreak as soon as possible."

"No, you don't understand." Ye Chuanping shook his head.

"?"

Seeing Jian Xi's eyes, Ye Chuanping looked at Lin Quan beside him and said, "I mean that he will get over the trauma of a broken heart sooner or later. I hope you can teach him more about relationships and make him... not be so stubborn."

"..."

Jian Xi was a little confused at first and didn't know what Ye Chuanping meant, but after seeing the other person's eyes, he understood.

But...how can I teach him this thing myself?

He is not my sister!

Seeing some hesitation on Jian Xi's face, Ye Chuanping smiled, drank a sip of wine slowly and said, "Jian Xi, you are not still worried about the bet, are you?"

"Bet?" Jian Xi suddenly remembered the bet he made with Ye Chuanping about whether Gu Yuan and Gu Lu's relationship was strong.

"You remember? The situation now is obvious that the winner has been decided, right?"

Ye Chuanping said lightly that according to the agreement, the other party would help her get the secret of Shenggu free of charge.

"I'm afraid not yet?" Jian Xi said with a smile.

"What? Is it still unclear now?" Ye Chuanping picked up the wine glass, "You don't want to deny it, do you?"

Seeing Ye Chuanping holding up the wine glass, Jian Xi also raised his glass with Lin Quan and clinked it, then said with a smile: "That's not the case. If I lose, I will naturally accept the defeat, but it's just that feelings are something that can't be understood all at once. This is just the beginning, what if there is a turnaround?" After a pause, Jian Xi continued: "And no matter whether we win or lose, we can't rush to fulfill the bet. We have to wait until the next thing is over, right?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chuanping stared at him quietly for two seconds before nodding, smiling and taking a sip of wine.

……

"Jian Xi, does my mother want you to persuade me?"

On the way back to Pudong from the Ye family villa, the sober driver Gu Yuan asked.

In the back seat, Jian Xi hugged Lin Quan, whose face was slightly red, and smiled: "What can your mother ask me to advise you about?"

"Don't lose your soul for Gu Li. Breaking up like this is a disgrace to the Ye family. You told me to break up with Gu Li a long time ago but I didn't listen. Now you deserve it... Anyway, these are the words you said, and I could guess them." Gu Yuan said with a wry smile.

"Yeah." Jian Xi held Xiaoluocha's white and tender hand and read her palm, and continued to reply, "Since you know everything, what else can I advise you?"

Gu Yuan remained silent and drove on. After a long while, he spoke: "It's one thing to know, and it's another to do it."

"I understand. It's a breakup. Oh no, it should be a cliff-like breakup. Uh, commonly known as being dumped. Any normal person would have the same reaction as you."

Jian Xi continued to speak with his head down. When Lin Quan beside him heard this, his eyes narrowed, the corners of his mouth curled up and he almost laughed out loud.

Gu Yuan, who was driving, was very upset and said, "I'm driving now, please be careful with your words and actions, or I might say 'what's the point of this person living'."

"..."

I have to say that this threat was very effective. Jian Xi and Little Green Tea immediately restrained themselves a little. Although he was not afraid of car accidents with his current physical condition, and Little Green Tea was probably fine too, who would want to get beaten to a bloody pulp after having eaten their fill?

"Well, your mother does want me to persuade you, and most importantly, to persuade you not to continue hanging on to that tree of Gu Li."

"Oh, now I don't even have a chance to hang on even if I want to." The loser's bitter smile is always weak, like the last whimper before dying.

But Jian Xi still found it a little funny. He looked at his good brother through the rearview mirror and asked, "So you still want to go and hang yourself to Gu Li?"

The loser fell silent again. Some questions would hurt him when asked by others.

So Jian Xi asked again: "You haven't seen Gu Li in the company recently?"

"No." Gu Yuan shook his head. "Since she was taken away by the auditor last time, she has temporarily stopped working and has not come to the company since then."

Fortunately, she didn’t come, otherwise I wouldn’t know how to face it.

There was a hint of sadness in Gu Yuan's eyes. After the anger that day ended, the next few days were filled with regret and sadness.

He even thought, even if Gu Li really cheated again, so what? Couldn't he forgive Gu Li once more?

But...does she still love me?

"Car! Car!"

Two loud shouts rang in Gu Yuan's ears. He immediately came to his senses and realized that he was about to hit the back of the car in front of him, so he quickly slowed down.

"No, do you really think there's no point in living? There are people in the car!" Jian Xi was speechless at this moment. He really wanted to take over the car by force just now. "If I had known this would happen, I would have asked your driver to take us."

"Sorry! Sorry!" Gu Yuan looked extremely embarrassed. Seeing the frightened Lin Quan in the rearview mirror, he said, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law. I will definitely compensate you later. I was distracted just now."

Then he said to his good brother, "I don't want to stay at home anymore. After I send you off, I will go back to where I live alone, so that my mother won't be so weird in front of me again."

"Can you just be your driver first?" Jian Xi hugged Little Green Tea into his arms again, comforting her while continuing, "When you go back to your own place, don't go to the Sinan Mansion alone in the middle of the night and stand there like an idiot, thinking about the people inside."

"..."

The embarrassment on Gu Yuan's face became even more intense. He did the same thing last night. He stood at the intersection outside Sinan Mansion, staring blankly at the villa which had its lights turned off very late. His mind was filled with the time he spent with Gu Li in the past.

"How could that be? I'm not that embarrassed!"

Hearing his good brother say this calmly, Jian Xi smiled and didn't take it seriously. He didn't believe that the other party could really do that.

But he soon remembered something else, and pretended to be careless and said: "Seeing that you know what state you are in just now, I won't say much, but I still want to remind you, don't do anything stupid that will move you."

"What stupid thing?" Gu Yuan frowned and said guiltily, "Am I that kind of stupid person?"

"Hehe, you know it yourself." Jian Xi curled his lips and then put forward a classic quote, "Think about your family, your mother, and your friends before you do anything..."

"What are you talking about?!" Gu Yuan frowned even more tightly, "Can I break up and then jump off the building?"

Jian Xi shrugged and passed over the subject. Although the reminder was very subtle, he couldn't say that he didn't remind her.

So the car became quiet, Gu Yuan in the front was driving quietly, and Jian Xi in the back continued to read Xiao Lu Cha's palm.

"Jian Xi, I won't let Xi Cheng go."

Suddenly, Gu Yuan spoke again, his voice was soft, but his determination left no doubt.

Jian Xi, who was holding hands with Little Green Tea and preparing to kiss her, was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He turned his head to look at the rearview mirror and saw the driver looking calmly ahead. After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "I just advised you against this."

"Hmm? Isn't it? I see you are so serious. If you are not afraid that I will jump off the building, then you are trying to persuade me not to be impulsive towards Xi Cheng."

"Ha, then you're overthinking it. But it's right not to be impulsive, but not to be impulsive towards others." After feeling that Lin Quan's grip on his hand had slightly increased, Jian Xi smiled again, "But now that you've said that, I have to advise you. This is a society ruled by law, and the country abides by the law. We are all ambitious young people who are about to realize our ideals. We must abide by the law when doing things. Even if you are the eldest son of the Ye family, you must not touch the iron fist of domestic laws. I suggest that you review the Youth Great Learning recently, and watch our company's live broadcasts more often, and support positive energy with the friends in the live broadcast room..."

The law-abiding young man Jian Xi began to lecture Gu Yuan on the truth in an endless stream, just to save his good brother who was about to go astray.

The little green tea girl at the side listened with great interest at first, smiling and nodding in agreement from time to time, but gradually her eyes became strange. When did her man become so popular?
Gu Yuan's face almost turned red after hearing this, and he interrupted unhappily, "Jian Xi, is this your lyrics?"

"What's wrong? Isn't this the awareness that every one of us should have?" Jian Xi said righteously.

But when he saw the car was about to drive to his home, he suddenly smiled and said, "Well, as long as you submit screenshots of your Youth Learning to me every week, I will give you a gift later."

"what gift?"

"It's a secret." Jian Xi smiled. Seeing that the other party was about to ask again, he immediately added, "Don't ask. It's definitely a good thing. It can remove your hostility."

"Isn't it some kind of blessed Buddhist beads?"

"The answer is somewhat close, but no. Stop guessing and think about what you should pay for scaring us while driving. I don't care, but do you have the nerve to not care about Ah Quan? Your mother didn't even give her a gift or anything when she came back."

"You came to my house empty-handed, didn't you?"

"So I don't care. This is the first time Quan went with me. She is a guest. Don't let the Ye family become stingy."

"..."

……

I don’t know when it started, but an old story was suddenly brought up in the business community of Shanghai. It’s called an old story, but in fact it hasn’t been long ago. However, the mystery and gossip contained in it quickly made it a topic of discussion among many people, and even sparked a new wave of popularity.

But while many people were just watching the fun, this incident started to make some people sweat profusely.

This incident happened exactly the same as the Gong family funeral incident a year ago. Now, more than a year has passed, has the body of the second young master of the Gong family been found?
