Chapter 395: How Unlucky

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Jiang Junlin remembered the days in the dungeon, where they occasionally had Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, a dish that almost made his soul leave his body. Every piece of clothing carried a hint of refusal.

Ji Chi said, “I’ve hired the best Cantonese chef, really, trust me.”

Jiang Junlin pretended not to hear and said, “We can go out to eat.”

“I want to make it at home,” Ji Chi looked sad and a bit resentful. “It’s my birthday, and you’ve never been with me.”

Jiang Junlin’s heart skipped a beat, looking at Ji Chi’s sad and unwilling face, knowing that he was partly sincere and partly acting. Jiang Junlin softened, “Alright, I understand.”

Ji Chi was delighted and smiled with dimples. “It’s a deal. Don’t stand me up again.”

Gu Ci didn’t need help from Lu Zhiyuan to deal with Gu Chuyun. When she found out the news, she was surprised that Gu Chuyun had connected with Chen Rushi and Chen Yang.

Gu Ziyu had educated her about the Chen family, and she knew about the relationship between the Chen family and Chen Rushi. None of the Chen family members were simple, but was Chen Yang supporting Gu Chuyun because he liked her?

On this Friday, Gu Ziyu had a doctoral thesis and evening classes, so Gu Ci and Qin Wan went home first. Dr. North, who was going to provide psychological counseling to Gu Ci, also accompanied them. As soon as the three of them left the campus, they saw Gu Chuyun and Chen Yang holding hands at the school gate, looking very intimate. Gu Ci was quite surprised.

Gu Chuyun also noticed them and walked over with Chen Yang.

Chen Yang was slightly younger than Chen Rushi, and his appearance was somewhat more delicate. He didn’t have the greasy feeling of a rich second-generation. His cashmere coat was well-fitted and exuded an elegant temperament, making him appear very refined.

Dr. North frowned slightly and said to Qin Wan, “Let’s move aside and wait.”

Gu Ci didn’t think there was a need to be cautious. Dr. North had already taken Qin Wan aside, and she looked a bit nervous. Gu Chuyun, with Chen Yang, walked over. Gu Ci felt that Chen Yang looked familiar. Apart from a brief glance in the underground parking lot, she hadn’t really seen what he looked like.

“Sister, this is my boyfriend, Chen Yang. He’s been wanting to meet you. How about having dinner together tonight?” Gu Chuyun smiled and asked.

“I have an appointment with my teacher, so I’m sorry, I’m not close enough to have dinner with you.” Gu Ci looked at Chen Yang coldly. “If you have something to say, just say it.”

Gu Ci had dealt with Chen Rushi before, so she wasn’t afraid of Chen Yang. His aura was much weaker than Chen Rushi’s, and he lacked the gentle yet decisive presence she had.

Chen Yang was a young man nurtured in a world of wealth and gentleness.

He smiled and said, “Miss Gu, you’re straightforward, so I’ll be direct as well. I know you and Chuyun have had some issues in the past. She has also made mistakes, but now she’s come to her senses and publicly apologized. Both of you are starting new chapters in your lives. Can’t we consider a compromise and let bygones be bygones?”

Gu Ci adjusted her shoulder bag and furrowed her brows innocently. “I don’t understand what you mean by compromise. I haven’t forced Gu Chuyun to apologize. Whether she apologizes or not is her choice. Whether I forgive her or not is my choice. Besides, 1 haven’t done anything.”

Chen Yang, in his elegant manner, smiled and replied, “Indeed, Miss Gu, you don’t need to do anything. You are the major shareholder of Hualan Bank. If Chuyun wants to make it in the entertainment industry, everyone has to consider the influence of capital. Many people might create difficulties for her due to Hualan Bank.”

“That’s absurd,” Gu Ci retorted calmly. “Gu Chuyun holds sixteen endorsements and has seen a qualitative leap in her resources. I’ve never seen anyone causing her trouble. She skyrocketed to fame in just half a year. If I really had that much influence, could she have achieved such success?”

Qin Wan scratched her head, looking puzzled as she glanced at Dr. North. “Have you noticed… he looks a bit like me?”

A female version of her!

Dr. North’s palms were sweaty, and he was extremely nervous. “Not at all.”

Qin Wan rubbed her chin, still perplexed. “Not like me? He really looks quite similar. The Chen family’s eldest son has a unisex face. Their facial features are quite alike.”

“Similarity between people is common,” Dr. North casually remarked.

“They both have two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. Their appearance is quite similar.”

Qin Wan shrugged. “What are you so nervous about?”

“I’m not nervous!” Dr. North protested.

Qin Wan then took out a cigarette from her pocket, but Dr. North stopped her. “We’re at the school gate, mind the influence.”

“Such a stickler!” Qin Wan complained but obediently put the cigarette away.

Chen Yang chuckled and asked, “Miss Gu, does that mean you’re not willing to let my girlfriend off the hook?”

“I haven’t done anything,” Gu Ci furrowed her brows. “Mr. Chen, can’t you understand plain language?”

Chen Yang’s expression darkened. “Miss Gu, even Lu Zhiyuan and Jiang Junlin showed me some respect. 1 don’t know where you get the courage to speak to me like this.”

Gu Ci remained composed. “Your respect is earned by your father, not something you’ve earned yourself. 1 don’t know you, yet you come to the school gate with your girlfriend to make trouble for me. With such behavior, who would show you respect?”

Chen Yang sneered, “Quite the eloquent speaker.”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way!” Gu Ci turned to find Dr. North and Qin Wan and walked away.

Gu Chuyun whispered, “I’ve always said that my sister is unruly and has a bad temper, but you insisted on meeting her.”

Chen Yang lifted her chin and calmly stated, “What I do is not up to you to dictate.”

Gu Chuyun shivered and didn’t dare to speak.

As Qin Wan crossed the street, she glanced back at Chen Yang and asked Gu Ci, “Cici, do Chen Yang and I look somewhat alike?”

“I’ve always felt that he looked familiar, but I couldn’t remember where I had seen him. As soon as you mentioned it, I realized it too, especially when he smiles. There’s a striking resemblance between you two – the eyes, nose, and facial contours.” Gu Ci glanced at Dr. North. “Chen Geng and the Chen family are related by blood, and Chen Yang and Little Cherry both have Chen blood in them, so it’s not surprising they look alike.”

Qin Wan looked nothing like Chen Rushi.

Dr. North casually remarked, “In the entertainment industry, there are many people who look alike without any blood relation.”

“I was just making a point. Who would want to be related to him by blood? Bad luck!” Qin Wan decisively denied any resemblance. She was just curious about encountering someone who looked like her.

Gu Ci and Dr. North exchanged a smile, both somewhat bemused.

“Why did this guy inexplicably come to find you? To support Gu Chuyun? Is there something wrong with him?” Qin Wan asked. “He’s considered the pillar of the Chen family’s younger generation, but in terms of overall family influence, he’s no match for the Zhang family.”

The Zhang family’s daughter, son-in-law, son, and daughter-in-law were all exceptional individuals. The grandchildren were also well-raised, making it a flourishing family.

“Let’s not bother with him,” Gu Ci said calmly. “Young men are often drawn in by feminine charm, wanting to be the hero in her life. It’s understandable.”

Qin Wan added, “Among the Chen family, only Chen Liangdong can stand against the Zhang family. Ultimately, their family’s younger generation is too thin. Mr. Zhang was clever, giving birth to so many children – spoiled one, there’s still another. With numerous offspring and grandchildren, they can easily pick out the best..”
