The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 419: Chapter 418: Nullified

Gu Yaozhong heard this and his face was full of mockery.

”I remember the last time your brother-in-law said the same thing right before their divorce. But look at how it ended—didn’t they still end up getting a divorce? So just get rid of that idea, or else when Old Master Ding comes looking for trouble, I won’t help your Zhuang family out.”

Zhuang Caixin was somewhat agitated.

”Even if Ding Yuejun is the eldest daughter of the Ding family, she’s already divorced and has a daughter as old as Yiyi. Does she still think she can find a young man who’s never been married? Our Xinhe is already quite good.”

”Even if she can’t find an unmarried young guy, she can still find someone like Wei Hanliang. Do you think your brother can compare to Wei Hanliang?”

Hearing this, Zhuang Caixin was momentarily speechless.

Even though she thought her cousin was good, she couldn’t bring herself to say he was better than Wei Hanliang. After all, Wei Hanliang was also handsome and held a high position.

Her own brother, although his workplace was decent, was just a small section chief. But in the end, she still retorted,

”Even if my brother can’t compare to Wei Hanliang, do you think Wei Hanliang would want to marry Ding Yuejun? Even if he’s now divorced, he can choose from many young, unmarried women.”

Gu Yaozhong felt he couldn’t continue the conversation with his wife, directly warning, ”I don’t care whether Yiyi’s mother gets remarried or not. Just don’t give me any dumb ideas and stay away from her.” After saying this, he turned and left.

Watching her husband’s departing figure, Zhuang Caixin couldn’t help but bite her lip, but when thinking of the Ding family’s power, she ultimately suppressed her thoughts, though she still felt reluctant.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Yiyi didn’t know someone was already planning things for her mother. At this moment, she was walking leisurely down the street with Gu Tingyu.

”Grandma said we’ll handle dinner ourselves tonight. I’ll take you to try something new.”

Hearing this, Yiyi looked at Gu Tingyu and asked, ”Sure, is it a newly opened restaurant?”

”Yes, it is indeed a new restaurant. It’s opened by one of my comrades, Zhu Guangliang. You should try his cooking.”

”Really, then I must eat a lot.”

Yiyi nodded with a smile.

When they arrived, there were already quite a few people seated in the restaurant. Owner Zhu Guangliang saw Gu Tingyu and Yiyi coming and enthusiastically welcomed them.

”Captain, you’re here! Please come inside and sit.”

Gu Tingyu patted him on the shoulder and said, ”Just call me Tingyu.”

Yiyi curiously glanced at Zhu Guangliang, finding him to be a fairly young guy. While she was checking him out, he also curiously glanced at her, then immediately said enviously, ”Captain, your girlfriend is really pretty.”

Hearing this, Gu Tingyu’s face was full of smiles.

”It’s the first time I’m bringing my girlfriend here for a meal. Prepare a few of your specialties for us today.”

Hearing this, Zhu Guangliang hurried to say, ”Don’t worry, Captain, I already prepared the ingredients before you got here. Please take your seats, and I’ll go cook right away.”

Zhu Guangliang moved quickly, and in no time, the food was ready.

Yiyi took a bite and quickly praised, ”It’s delicious.”

Seeing the young girl enjoy it, Gu Tingyu couldn’t help but smile and say, ”As long as you like it. When we went on missions before, Guangliang would always cook for us when he got the chance. That’s how he honed his skills.”

”It’s really good. We should come here to eat from now on.”

Gu Tingyu naturally agreed with a smile.

But after Yiyi had taken a couple more bites, her gaze was fixed on the entrance, her expression somewhat complex.

Seeing this, Gu Tingyu also looked toward the entrance.

They saw Xie Yuanzhou and a gentle-looking woman enter the restaurant and sit right next to them.

At this time, Xie Yuanzhou also noticed Yiyi and Gu Tingyu, giving them a nod.

”Brother Xie, are you here with a friend for a meal?”

Yiyi asked with a smile when she saw the situation.

Xie Yuanzhou, with his usual cold demeanor, said, ”Not a friend.”

Upon hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but say, ”Not a friend? Could she be your girlfriend?”

Currently, Wei Zhirong hadn’t given up yet, so if Xie Yuanzhou really had a girlfriend, she would certainly advise her to let go. So today, Yiyi was unusually persistent in her questioning.

Upon hearing Yiyi’s question, Xie Yuanzhou furrowed his brow slightly and was about to say something when the woman across from him smiled and said, ”Yes, I’m his girlfriend.”

Hearing this, Yiyi’s face slightly sank.

But just as the woman finished speaking, Xie Yuanzhou unmercifully said, ”We’re at most strangers who’ve met once, not even friends, let alone girlfriend and boyfriend.”

Hearing this, Yiyi was full of surprise, looking between Xie Yuanzhou and the gentle woman across from him.

At this moment, the gentle woman, now full of anger, looked at Xie Yuanzhou and said, ”Xie Yuanzhou, how can you be as stubborn and unpleasant as a stone in a cesspool? We have a verbal engagement, so I am indeed your girlfriend.”

Yiyi’s recently calmed heart couldn’t help but rise again.

She didn’t know that Xie Yuanzhou had a verbal engagement with someone. Had she known, she would have advised Wei Zhirong to give up immediately.

”That verbal engagement was void long ago. Stop trying to create a connection where there isn’t one.”

Xie Yuanzhou unmercifully added another blow.

The woman was so angry she stood up immediately.

”You’re beyond saving. All you have is a good face, and your personality is insufferable. I wonder who’ll be unlucky enough to marry you, having to face your cold expression every day. In the end, the woman directly stood up, scoffing, ”You should’ve been honored that I had interest in you. Since you’re not interested, I won’t bother sticking my warm face against your cold butt. Goodbye, I can’t even finish this meal.”

After saying this, the woman stood up and left, without any hesitation.

Watching the situation unfold between the two, Yiyi was a bit dumbfounded.

She hadn’t said or done anything, and yet the two of them had already fallen out.

Xie Yuanzhou remained seated, not leaving. When the food arrived, he leisurely ate by himself.

Seeing Xie Yuanzhou eating so calmly, Yiyi couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. It seemed Xie Yuanzhou treated all women the same and she wondered if he’d ever open up.

Gu Tingyu saw that Yiyi wasn’t eating, so he directly placed a piece of ribs in front of her mouth, urging her to continue her meal.

Smelling the enticing aroma, Yiyi snapped out of it and continued eating with Gu Tingyu.
