Seeing Gu Yeze accompanying Bai Weijin with an anxious expression on his face, Tan Xin felt very jealous. She said with a reluctant smile on the corner of her mouth.

“Yeze, since you are so concerned about Weijin’s body, I will go home by myself and you can take good care of her.”

Tan Xin, though speaking decently, actually wished Gu Yeze to ask her to stay.

While Bai Weijin got all Gu Yeze’s attention at this time.

“Ok, you go first.” Gu Yeze said inattentively, with his eyes focused on Bai Weijin’s body.

Unwillingly glancing at Gu Yeze, Tan Xin had to leave with resentment.

By the time Bai Weijin woke up again, it was already the evening of the day. Looking at the silence around her, Bai Weijin felt as if what happened during the daytime was a dream.

‘Forget it, why bother to think about that kind of people all day?”

“Ding-Dong!” The cell phone kept ringing. Bai Weijin turned on the cellphone curiously and couldn’t help raising her eyebrows after seeing the messages.

One message was that Grandma Gu invited Bai Weijin back to their ancestral home for dinner. Grandma Gu invited her to attend a family banquet. The other message was that Li family had agreed to let Gu Yeyu be the bridesmaid.

‘There is really no good news as soon as I wake up.’

Bai Weijin sighed slightly and rubbed her temples to ease her headache. Bai Weijin not only had to worry that Gu Yeyu’s plan would hurt the girl, but also had to attend a family banquet which was full of crises.

‘Is God so rude to patients?’

After informing Gu Yeyu of the news, Bai Weijin got out of the bed and then drove to the ancestral house.

As soon as she arrived at the door to the ancestral house, Bai Weijin saw Tan Xin, the last person she wanted to see.

At the sight of Bai Weijin’s arrival, Tan Xin came up with a smiling face and said, “Director Bai, I have been waiting for you here for a long time.”

‘When the fox preaches, take care of your geese.’

“Tan Xin, is there anything you want me to do?” Bai Weijin paused and then said, “If there is nothing, I need to attend the family banquet that Grandma Gu invited me to.”

When talking about the words “Grandma Gu invited me” and “family banquet”, Bai Weijin raised the tone emphatically. Her implication was obvious.

‘You are not from our family, what are you doing here?’

Tan Xin gnashed her teeth and thought, ‘I come here just because I know there is a family banquet today!’

The maid bought off last time came in hand at this time.

“Well, Director Bai.” Tan Xin seemed not to get Bai Weijin’s implication, and continued, “There are some urgent documents which need your signature.”

“Please do me this favor.”

Then Tan Xin held a thick stack of documents to Bai Weijin’s face.

‘Does she want me to keep signing so that I can’t attend the banquet?” Bai Weijin kept speculating on Tan Xin’s intentions while signing her name.

However, Tan Xin’s request was reasonable. If these were really urgent documents, Bai Weijin couldn’t reject even if she were Gu Yeze.

It was strangely quiet, leaving only the sound of the scratch of the pen. As time went by, Bai Weijin and Tan Xin were still at the gate of the ancestral house.

Then, a stunning Rolls-Royce came into view.

Tan Xin’s eyes sparkled. ‘Great! Gu Yeze finally comes!’

“What are you doing here?” asked Gu Yeze indifferently.

A sweet smile came up at the corner of Tan Xin’s mouth and she said, “Here are some urgent documents which need Director Bai’s signature.”

Gu Yeze didn’t say anything, and just nodded faintly. But he suddenly remembered something and said, “Just finish it quickly. We are going to have dinner.”

Then, the hunter finally showed her fangs.

“Yeze, it’s too late…” Tan Xin said with a face of hesitation, “And there is no other car to drive me back.”

‘So, are you going to attend our family banquet?’ Bai Weijin was watching indifferently aside. She didn’t expect that Tan Xin would be so shameless.

How did Tan Xin’s charade escape from Gu Yeze’s eyes? But somehow, Gu Yeze was particularly curious about Bai Weijin’s reaction.

Gu Yeze stared at Bai Weijin quietly, as if he was asking her opinion.

‘Does it matter to me, since Tan Xin is your follower?’

Bai Weijin pretended to be appreciating the scenery unintentionally and avoided Gu Yeze’s eyes and questions.

All of a sudden, the three fell into silence. As for Tan Xin, whether she went inside or left would both be inappropriate. There was a flash of resentment in her eyes.

Tan Xin had made her purpose so obvious, but Gu Yeze still didn’t agree.

‘But it doesn’t matter. As long as I can disturb your family banquet, it is still a good choice.’

Tan Xin’s mood seemed to be getting better, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became brighter and brighter.

At this moment, an old voice came up, making Tan Xin freeze instantly.

“Gu Yeze, let your driver send Tan Xin back, and hurry in for dinner.”

It was Grandma Gu speaking.

Tan Xin looked at Grandma Gu in disbelief. She seemed to be on the verge of saying something.

“Grandma Gu…”

After all, Grandma Gu was sophisticate since she had lived for 70 to 80 years. How could Tan Xin’s little trick fool Grandma Gu!

If it was in other cases, Grandma would certainly invite Tan Xin in. But today it was a family banquet, and Grandma Gu didn’t want Tan Xin to interfere in their family affairs.

“My good girl!” A kind smile appeared on Grandma Gu’s face, and she comforted Tan Xin, “Next time, if you want to visit us, the door is always open.”

‘But I just want to come today!’ Tan Xin naturally didn’t dare to say these words. She felt so wronged that she wanted to stamp.

Just now at the hospital, Tan Xin passed over Bai Weijin’s slap just because she wanted to attend this family banquet. God knew that even though she was already at the gate, she couldn’t attend it.

What did Grandma Gu mean? Obviously, Grandma Gu was telling Tan Xin that they were not a family!

With the help of Grandma Gu, Bai Weijin’s original depression instantly disappeared. Bai Weijin raised her eyebrows and showed a polite smile to Tan Xin.

“So, thanks for your hard work. Be careful on the road!”

Maybe Bai Weijin didn’t mean to irritate Tan Xin. But in Tan Xin’s eyes, Bai Weijin’s smile was so offending.

Tan Xin’s eyes were full of calculation. Tan Xin said to herself, ‘It seems that I have to carry out my plan ahead of schedule.’

Tan Xin didn’t notice that her fingernails pressed so hard that the leather Rolls-Royce seat was slit.

‘Bai Weijin, if you want to die earlier, I will help you.’
