Chapter 60: Internal Conflict

Looking at the door which was still tightly shut, she couldn’t care less about ruining Gu Lingyu’s plan.

“It’s getting late. Old Master Su is still waiting for us in the front hall to have lunch.”

Su Qiao’s voice grew louder as she spoke, she pushed the door open.

Just then, she saw Gu Lingyu gently reaching out to help Su Yan insert a hairpin.

Su Qiao paused and stood still. She couldn’t hide the hatred in her eyes.

Gu Lingyu looked at Su Qiao unhappily.

Su Yan was relieved. She could no longer pretend with Gu Lingyu.

She pretended to be panicked and avoided Gu Lingyu’s hand. She pushed the wheelchair and headed out.

“I, I’ll wait for you at the door.”

As she spoke, she even glanced at Gu Lingyu shyly.

The charm of this glance made Gu Lingyu in trance for a moment.

Su Qiao got more furious when she saw it. She stood in front of Gu Lingyu and blocked Su Yan’s figure.

Gu Lingyu said unhappily, “What are you doing here?”

Su Qiao’s expression changed and she said in a huff, “Am I disturbing the two of you?”

Gu Lingyu’s expression became a little cold. He had never liked women who were too loud.

Su Qiao, who grew up together with Gu Lingyu quickly sensed his change.

She softened her tone immediately, “Lingyu, I was afraid that you would fall for Su Yan. I spoke without many thoughts because I care about you too much.”

Su Qiao who behaved this way made Gu Lingyu feel better.

He held Su Qiao’s hand and said, “I told you, right? I did this to get the news of the Guang Residence from Su Yan. Don’t be jealous.”

Su Qiao gave an obedient smile and gently leaned on Gu Lingyu’s chest.

Su Yan, who was at the door listened with great interest. Did both of them think she was a fool?

They were so brazen in the Su family’s territory.

She pulled out the hairpin that Gu Lingyu had just inserted.

Looking at the jade crystal on the hairpin, she raised her eyebrows.

Gu Lingyu was quite generous.

She slowly put the hairpin back on her head. She pretended to have just rushed back.

She said at the door, “Why are you still here?”

Gu Lingyu quickly pushed away Su Qiao from his arms.

He walked towards Su Yan and took over Chu Tao’s job.

He pushed Su Yan’s wheelchair by himself.

Su Qiao’s face darkened for a moment. She looked at Chu Tao and went back to normal.

She tidied up her clothes before following him.

She seemed very generous.

Walking ahead of Su Qiao, Su Yan giggled as she talked about the flowers on the roadside with Gu Lingyu.

Gu Lingyu gently went along with her conversation. He kept saying sweet words to Su Yan endlessly.

Su Qiao’s heart was bleeding. Yet, she had no choice but to put on a smile.

She quickly walked forward and tried to interrupt, but Su Yan always changed the topic.

Gu Lingyu did not notice anything. Su Qiao looked at Su Yan’s smug look and was instantly alerted.

Su Yan was very satisfied with this outcome.

Sitting at the dining table, the elders of the Su family had a strange look on their faces.

Something was not right.

Gu Lingyu’s wife was sitting next to him. Yet, he was trying hard to please Su Yan.

Su Yan looked cold, but she would respond occasionally.

Su Qiao sat beside them with a gloomy expression.

The meal was done under a strange vibe.

After Gu Lingyu left, Su Yan took off the hairpin and casually threw it on the table.

She eased her facial expression.

Master Su nudged Madam Su. After all, it was better for a mother to talk about such things.

Mother Su stroked her hair and said, “Yan’er, do you still have feelings for Gu Lingyu?”

Master Su was afraid to hear Su Yan’s answer, so he quickly said, “Yan’er, the Su family’s daughter can’t be fickle.”

Madam Su was angry and pushed her elbow on Master Su’s body.

Su Yan smiled, “Don’t worry, I really don’t have any feelings for Gu Lingyu.”
