War of Roses: The Proud Tycoon，Please Surrender!-Chapter 262: Why can’t I be jealous?

The black Bugatti drove down the road at night.

Gu Yan looked out the window at the gradually familiar scenery, feeling a bit nervous inside.

She was finally going back to the home she shared with Tang Yuxiu.

That’s great. Gu Yan smiled slightly.

As they passed the supermarket they used to go to, Tang Yuxiu hit the brakes.

Gu Yan looked at him in confusion, "Why did you stop?"

Tang Yuxiu said, "Let’s buy some groceries, it’s been a long time since I had your cooking."

Gu Yan felt a slight warmth in her heart and nodded, "Okay. You wait in the car, I’ll go buy."

Saying this, Gu Yan unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out, but Tang Yuxiu held her hand.

She turned around, looking at him in confusion.

Under the night’s lights, Tang Yuxiu’s eyes seemed to twinkle with a moving light, "I’ll go with you."

Gu Yan was slightly stunned, then smiled a little, "Alright."

It was almost ten o’clock and the supermarket was nearly empty, even the sales assistant looked drowsy, but upon seeing Tang Yuxiu, their eyes lit up instantly, becoming spirited.

"What would you like to buy, sir?" The sales assistant asked Tang Yuxiu, completely ignoring Gu Yan next to him.

Gu Yan, "..." Even though she wasn’t as striking as Tang Yuxiu, she shouldn’t be ignored just like that.

Gu Yan gave Tang Yuxiu a resentful glance, who silently turned his head away, pretending not to notice her eyes, nor the sales assistant who had come over to enthusiastically talk to him.

Gu Yan hummed softly, finally feeling a bit more satisfied.

Gu Yan calmly told the sales assistant, "We’ll browse ourselves."

She successfully saw the sales assistant’s smile freeze slightly, then walked past her, holding Tang Yuxiu’s arm.

Sales assistant, "..."

Gu Yan pushed the cart and diligently picked food items in the food section, while Tang Yuxiu stood watching on the side.

He couldn’t seem to get enough of looking at her.

Suddenly, Tang Yuxiu thought that the month they were apart might have been a good thing for them.

Only when you’ve lost something do you cherish what you have even more.

It was because he almost lost Gu Yan that having her by his side now made him feel so content and joyful.

He felt his life was no longer so lifeless.

The influence Gu Yan had on him was extraordinary, completely transforming him.

Many things he never imagined doing or thinking in his life, he started doing and thinking about them.

Yet, he was enjoying it immensely.

"Tang Yuxiu, shall I make you a ham sandwich tomorrow morning?" Gu Yan asked, holding up two slices of ham in front of him.

Tang Yuxiu lowered his eyes lightly and nodded, "Sure. Whatever you want."

I’ll eat whatever you make.

Now that you’re back, I have nothing to pick on, I like everything you make.

Gu Yan smiled and put the ham into the cart.

She walked around the supermarket but didn’t buy much.

"Most of the groceries aren’t fresh at this time, let’s buy them tomorrow since we’re not cooking tonight anyway."

"Alright." Tang Yuxiu nodded, "Is there anything else to buy?" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Gu Yan thought for a while and shook her head, "No, just these items, let’s check out and go back to rest early."

"Alright."

At the checkout, Gu Yan placed the items on the counter one by one, but regardless of the sales assistant or the checkout girl, they kept staring at Tang Yuxiu, making Gu Yan quite displeased.

Watching the checkout girl’s actions, she missed scanning the barcode several times, so Gu Yan couldn’t help but remind her, "Miss, could you please speed up?"

Scanning a barcode is such a simple task, yet she had to try several times to get it right. Does she have any work ethics?

The checkout girl realized her indiscretion, blushed slightly, and hurriedly lowered her head to seriously scan the barcodes, not daring to glance at Tang Yuxiu again.

Gu Yan used the card Tang Yuxiu gave her to pay and tossed the bag to him before striding out of the supermarket.

Tang Yuxiu, holding the bag, was a bit baffled. He didn’t seem to have done anything; why was she suddenly angry?

Tang Yuxiu shook his head helplessly. A woman’s heart is indeed a mystery, this saying is so true.

Sitting in the car, Gu Yan turned her head to the window, not looking at Tang Yuxiu. He was puzzled and thought for a while, then decided it was easier to ask her directly.

"What’s wrong? I don’t think I’ve offended you."

Not offended?

Hmph. Gu Yan snorted softly, you’ve offended me greatly!

Gu Yan glared at Tang Yuxiu, "Why does a grown man like you have to be so attractive? Wherever you go, you catch everyone’s attention, it’s too stressful being with you."

Tang Yuxiu, "..." So being too good-looking isn’t always a good thing, huh.

"That’s unfair of you, when did I ever flirt with anyone?"

"Didn’t you see how all the female staff in the supermarket were gawking at you just now?"

Even though they knew someone like her was standing right beside him, they blatantly ignored her!

Gu Yan was about to go crazy, wasn’t she?

She really wanted to shout, "This is my man, all of you take your eyes off him, or don’t blame me for being rude, I’ll dig your eyes out!"

Tang Yuxiu listened to her words and raised an eyebrow lightly, "So, you’re jealous?"

Gu Yan paused for a moment, then glared at him, "What, am I not allowed to be jealous?"

Hearing this, Tang Yuxiu suddenly hooked his lips and unexpectedly clasped the back of her head, pressing his lips to hers.

Tang Yuxiu didn’t go deeper, he just pressed softly and kissed, then released her. With his forehead resting against hers, he said gently, "Yanyan, I’m very happy that you get jealous for me, and even happier that you admit it."

Then, Gu Yan’s mind went dizzy, and she put aside everything that had just happened.

Ah? What did she just say? Why couldn’t she remember?

Tang Yuxiu let her go, fastened the seatbelt, and started the car.

The Bugatti drove into Lixin Villa District, gradually heading towards the villa where she and Tang Yuxiu once lived.

Among the lush trees, a small corner of the white villa peeked out, blending into the night and faintly shining.

The car finally stopped outside the villa. Gu Yan got out of the car, looking at the white villa wrapped in the night, her heart mixed with emotions.

She recalled more than a month ago, how reluctant yet resolute she was when she walked out of here, leaving everything behind.

She thought that none of those belonged to her.

And now, she stood here again and could confidently tell herself that all this belonged to her!

This is everything Tang Yuxiu gave her!

Here, will be the beginning of their future.

Tang Yuxiu opened the door and turned on the lights. The light dazzled Gu Yan’s eyes, and she blinked, as if seeing the road ahead for her and Tang Yuxiu.

Just like this villa in the night, before turning on the light, it was blurry, but after the light was on, it became clear.

The furnishings inside the room were still the same as before she left, seemingly untouched.

The house was as clean as always, very much in Tang Yuxiu’s style.

Although Tang Yuxiu hadn’t returned for more than a month, You Shuyang had hired a cleaner during this time.

Since he had found Gu Yan, he knew she would return one day, and naturally, Young Master Tang would also come back to this villa, so keeping the villa clean was the right thing to do.

Gu Yan arranged her things in the kitchen before coming out.

Tang Yuxiu was still the same, watching the unchanging financial news.

Gu Yan found it boring and directly brushed past him, heading to the music room.

Opening the door and turning on the wall light, the white piano appeared clearly in front of her. She rushed over excitedly, gently stroking the body of the piano.

So satisfying!

The piano was still there, still so beautiful, without any damage.

She was really afraid that after she left, Tang Yuxiu would smash or throw it away in anger.

Fortunately, he didn’t.

Gu Yan sighed with relief.

She sat in front of the piano, lifted its cover, revealing the black and white keys inside.

Her hands covered the keys, and at this moment, she especially wanted to play a song!

The smooth and beautiful melody gradually took form under her hands. This melody had a hint of sadness, a touch of longing, a bit of regret, a trace of spontaneity, a slight confusion, and a sense of quietness...

All these feelings intertwined yet didn’t seem complicated, but instead blended very well. These different feelings became the main feature of the piece, making it irresistible, tempting one to explore why there was sadness, why there was regret, and why there was confusion...

With the song finished, Gu Yan opened her eyes, yet her inner emotions were not calm.

This was the first time she played this piece. From the moment it was created, she thought she’d never have the chance to play it.

Tang Yuxiu didn’t know when he had stood behind her, listening to the entire piece.

"What is this piece?" He hadn’t heard it before, not a single bit seemed familiar.

Gu Yan turned to look at him and replied, "It’s called ’Journey’."

Tang Yuxiu asked, "Who composed it? I’ve never heard it before."

This piece was very beautiful, and the emotions within it varied yet didn’t feel complicated. The composer managed these so well—it was impressive!

Logically, such a good piece should be famous, yet he had never heard of it.

Gu Yan said, "Of course, you haven’t heard it. I had a sudden inspiration while in the car and just wrote it down. This is also my first time playing it."

Hearing Gu Yan’s response, Tang Yuxiu couldn’t help but be amazed.

He knew she was extremely talented on the piano but didn’t expect she could compose as well!

This piece ’Journey’ truly shocked him.

If she hadn’t said anything, he would never have thought it was her.

"Yanyan, I didn’t expect you to compose!"

"I just wrote it casually. I still want to make some revisions." She had played only the draft, feeling there were still some parts not polished, not handled well, but she lacked the mood and energy at that time.

"This piece is great. Yanyan, do you want more people to hear it?"

Gu Yan paused, looked up at him, "What do you mean?"

Tang Yuxiu said, "I want it to be spread out." It would stir up a storm in the music world!
