Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 297: Curse You to Fall in Love with Me

"Who told you to go out and work? Are you short of money? I still owe you breakup compensation. If you need it, I’ll have Qi Han transfer it to you in a bit. Stop working. Resign immediately." Yan Ting’s mood instantly soured the moment he heard that she was working at Leng Weichen’s company. After all, Leng Weichen was on his list of rivals.

"I’d love to resign too, but I might have to pay a penalty fee." Banxia muttered softly.

"Who said you had to pay it?" Yan Ting’s eyes narrowed, his displeasure deepening.

"Leng Weichen said it. He said I signed a contract with their company and can’t quit on my own."

Yan Ting’s sharp gaze turned even darker as he let out a cold laugh. "I’ll handle this personally. You don’t need to worry about it anymore. From now on, stop concerning yourself with work matters. Just focus on taking care of your pear garden."

"If I don’t have a job to support myself, you won’t look down on me, will you?" Banxia laughed at herself bitterly.

"No!" Yan Ting responded with absolute certainty. "I want you to live as carefree as you wish."

Banxia was stunned for a moment. Carefree? How beautiful those four words sounded.

At the school!

Tong Keke ran off in anger because of Gu Qianxi, while Gu Qianxi wandered out of the school absentmindedly.

"Gu?" Wang Ling walked up quickly, overjoyed. "It really is you! Have you come to see Keke again?"

"Mm." Gu Qianxi appeared downcast, his spirits low.

Noticing his state, Wang Ling immediately asked with gentle concern, "Gu, is something wrong? You look so preoccupied. Do you want to come to my office and sit for a bit?"

"No need, I have something else to do." Gu Qianxi had no mental space to chat with another woman at the moment. He looked around; teenagers came and went, some holding hands, others whispering sweetly. By the lake, couples leaned in closely, talking in hushed tones. His expression became even more rigid.

If one day, his older brother ended up walking so intimately with another guy, holding hands, his heart... would ache!

"Gu, you’re like this, and I’m really worried about you." Wang Ling looked at him with concern written all over her face.

Gu Qianxi straightened himself up slightly, forcing a faint smile. "I’m really fine. I’ll head off now."

Gu Qianxi strode toward his car, and as he left, Wang Ling reached out as if to stop him, but in the end, she couldn’t hold him back. Inevitably, a trace of disappointment settled in her face.

When Gu Qianxi reached his car, just as he was about to open the car door, he noticed a small figure crouching behind the car.

Gu Qianxi’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly walked over, his deep eyes flashing with a hint of delight.

"Keke, what are you doing squatting here?"

"Drawing circles. Cursing you!"

Sure enough, Tong Keke held a withered branch in her hand. When she heard her uncle’s voice, she casually answered without looking up.

Gu Qianxi: "..."

What a childish act!

"What curse?" Gu Qianxi couldn’t help but laugh.

"Cursing you to fall in love with me!" Tong Keke raised her head. Her snow-white, delicate face shimmered under the sunlight, looking radiant, youthful, and breathtakingly beautiful.

The smile on Gu Qianxi’s face froze instantly. He looked down at her, their eyes meeting. His gaze was complicated and clouded.

Tong Keke noticed the sudden silence, and her heart raced uncontrollably. Then, she threw the twig in her hand aside, patted her legs, and stood up. "Dean Gu, I just came by to tell you that in the future, don’t bother coming to school to look for me unless you’ve thought it through and want to be with me." Tong Keke’s petite figure stood upright, and her tone carried a surprisingly mature air for her size.
