The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 128: Chi Yu’s Part-Time Job Journey

It’s no wonder Gu Yuan is cautious.

People of her status are 70% more vigilant than the average person when faced with anything suspicious.

Being of high value is also a danger, always being watched by others.

Noticing that the other party was asking too many detailed questions, Gu Yuan clearly expressed her discomfort: "Isn’t Young Master Quan asking a bit too much? I’ve already said I have no dietary restrictions."

The other party was clearly taken aback, realizing they had crossed the line with their questions.

They immediately apologized: "Sorry for being abrupt, Miss Gu, because I couldn’t meet you last time, I felt very guilty. For this meeting between you and my grandmother, I wanted to be thoughtful to make up for last time."

"I’m not that petty, no need." Gu Yuan’s voice was gentle, with a hint of cold detachment.

The other party quickly said: "I’m sorry, I was wrong, I promise it won’t happen again, please don’t be mad."

"..."

Why does this tone of apology sound a bit familiar?

At first glance, it seemed slightly reminiscent of Chi Yu.

But Gu Yuan wouldn’t really associate this Young Master Quan with Chi Yu.

She had thoroughly investigated Chi Yu’s identity a long time ago. Chi Yu was a college dropout coaxed into signing with a company as a trainee and debuted through a talent development show.

At that time, Chi Yu was living on a meager monthly salary of 2,500, with room and board covered, living quite frugally.

Before meeting Gu Yuan, Chi Yu’s resources after debuting through a talent show were quite limited. The company had to promote 7 or 8 people out of over a hundred. After splitting resources, there wasn’t much left. However, Chi Yu’s looks ensured he had a relatively smooth career path later on.

The biggest reason Chi Yu could completely turn his career around against the odds was finding a reliable backing in Gu Yuan.

This Young Master Quan, with his impressive background and wealth, lived a life of luxury akin to a Crown Prince. Even if he entered the entertainment industry, he would have the Quan Family’s support, enjoying a smooth path, unlike Chi Yu’s starting point.

The unpleasant call ended.

Holding her phone, Gu Yuan had a slightly annoyed expression on her face.

Sheng Yi, poking her head in curiously, asked, "Yuanyuan, was that the Young Master Quan you mentioned before on the voice call?"

"Yes, it was him."

Gu Yuan set her phone on the bedside table and sat on the edge of the bed, picking up her glass of milk to drink.

Sheng Yi, being quite the gossip, was too curious to hold back, leaning over to press on, "Yuanyuan, you’re not really going on a blind date with him, are you? Although I hope you find a good match and a man who truly loves you, it doesn’t have to be a blind date. In my book, only if you can’t find anyone do you go on blind dates."

Gu Yuan put down her milk, coughed slightly, "What are you thinking? It’s merely a business negotiation, not a blind date."

"Did you meet that Young Master Quan last time?" Sheng Yi asked again.

"No, he sent someone else in his place to fool me." Gu Yuan said honestly, as it didn’t really affect her.

His absence didn’t cause her any loss.

"Well, I figured these aristocratic heirs from family like the Quan Family always amuse themselves by toying with others. This Young Master Quan is no exception. I heard his reputation isn’t great in Yanjing, and the families have all these strict rules. Not following them leads to attitude problems. Just thinking about it is irritating. Only a fool would marry into a family like that and lose their freedom."

Sheng Yi rambled on with her complaints.

Gu Yuan nodded, "You’re right."
