Chapter 1002: The Cold-Hearted Overbearing CEO's Resentful Butler 15

~7 min read 1,268 words

【Does Gu Yeting know at this time that Gu Han's white moonlight is Bai Yunyue?】

Jin Chen watched the scene that was about to turn into a live spring palace, and asked 0731.

He didn't notice that his own overbearing CEO, because of that sentence just now praising him as very capable, had fallen into a faint reverie.

【He still doesn't know; otherwise he wouldn't be acting like this.】

In the original plot's climax, Gu Yeting, upon learning this, wished he could cut Gu Han into a thousand pieces.

So that's how it is.

Jin Chen gave a sympathetic glance at the overbearing CEO, thinking, Cherish this Gu Yeting who currently seems relatively normal.

Later he will make you unable to imagine how crazy he'll get.

Only then did he notice that Gu Han had actually, for the first time, not looked over at Gu Yeting's side, as if he were thinking about something himself.

Jin Chen stepped over and said, "Gu CEO, what's wrong?"

"……I wasn't thinking about anything!"

Gu Han immediately denied it, and upon speaking realized his answer was wrong, saying, "Don't talk nonsense from now on."

It made his mind wander; Xiao Yaojing really gives people a headache!

Jin Chen sat down, feeling wronged, and said, "Gu CEO, why are you always harsh with me today?"

"What am I doing wrong?"

"Or… you no longer need me to keep pretending…"

Gu Han was left dazed by his sentence after sentence, seeing Jin Chen speak more and more outrageously, he quickly reached out to cover his mouth.

"What nonsense."

His tone carried a reprimand.

The two people opposite looked over.

Under the gaze of the three, Jin Chen lowered his eyes pitifully, like a pitiful little lover being bullied.

"Gu CEO, their gazes make me uncomfortable..."

The voice muffled by his hand was hollow and damp, the moist breath spraying onto Gu Han's palm, itching from his palm to his heart.

Gu Han jerked his hand back as if shocked, glared at Gu Yeting and the two, and snapped, "What are you looking at! You scared him."

Having said that, he pulled Jin Chen upstairs.

【Oh— not easy! The overbearing CEO has been harsh on Bai Yunyue for you! Congratulations!】

Jin Chen's expression unchanged, he obediently followed behind upstairs, keenly noticing the following gaze, he glanced back and met Gu Yeting's eyes.

Inquiry and dissatisfaction.

What dissatisfaction...?

Ah right, the overbearing CEO was caught in a "scandalous photo", he wasn't angry about it.

Jin Chen raised his eyebrows at him, his gaze provocative, the instant change wanton and sharp.

Gu Yeting startled, then looked more closely and saw that person had already turned, following Gu Han step for step, as if the earlier gaze had merely been his illusion.

But Gu Yeting was now utterly certain that this little lover beside Gu Han... was not simple.

At least not as brainless as he imagined.

Second-floor pavilion.

Gu Han released him, suddenly came to his senses, angrily pinched Jin Chen's face, and said, "You were doing that on purpose, weren't you?"

Xiao Yaojing is definitely jealous! He gets jealous every time he comes to the old residence.

It really is immensely annoying.

Jin Chen blinked his eyes, "Sir, I don't understand what you're saying."

He moved closer, almost leaning over to embrace Gu Han in his arms, his voice gaining a few more degrees of sincerity.

"Thank you, sir, for helping me out just now."

"Although a qualified butler should know the boundaries between his two duties, … I really thank you."

Gu Han's heart involuntarily trembled slightly.

What… what the heck!

Why suddenly come out with this!

And why bring up the word "boundaries" again…

Occasionally not needing boundaries isn't bad either.

His face flushed slightly, he cursed inwardly, yet the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Xiao Yaojing's tactics are really becoming harder and harder to resist.

【Detected Villain Heartthrob Value +10, total 55!】

【Detected Villain Blackening Value -10, total 50!】

Gu Han slowly reached out and patted Jin Chen's back, a gentleness he himself wasn't even aware of.

"Alright, hurry up and stand properly."

After thinking, to prevent Xiao Yaojing from later eating more flying jealousy, he proactively said, "I'll talk with Bai Yunyue later; you rest in my room here."

As soon as his words fell, he saw Jin Chen's eyes visibly drooping, "If possible, may I ask sir what you want to… talk about with him?"

Gu Han immediately replied, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with feelings!"

Really… why put on such an expression.

The loss in Jin Chen's eyes vanished instantly, "Okay, sir, I'll wait for you in the room; remember to come back."

Clearly it's the same meaning, but why does it become ambiguous when coming from Xiao Yaojing's mouth!

The overbearing CEO doesn't understand; the overbearing CEO has been gotten a hold of.

Jin Chen obediently went to the rear courtyard bedroom, unaware of what surprising thing had just happened here.

A few minutes earlier, Shen Yanyu, heartbroken, ran back to the rear courtyard.

He had intended to hurry down the hallway back to his room, but saw Bai Yunyue's room door ajar, not fully closed.

Even though Bai Yunyue and Gu Yeting are a couple, in the old residence they each have their own rooms; this is also considered an unspoken rule of the Gu family.

In Shen Yanyu's mind, the recent events involuntarily surfaced.

Perhaps harboring a desire for revenge, his steps halted, and inexplicably he walked inside.

The room was very tidy; the servant had just cleaned it that morning.

Shen Yanyu's gaze swept the room, and he suddenly noticed something like a book hidden in the gap between the bedside table and the pillow.

He pressed his lips, feeling a bit nervous, yet he resolutely walked over.

He picked up that unknown object and discovered it was merely a photo album.

Yet the album's contents truly left Shen Yanyu stunned, unable to speak for a long while.

Bai Yunyue……how could she have so many photos of Gu Han!

Some of them aren't even from this year.

Some are from earlier, even from when Gu Han was a young boy long ago.

Thus the protagonist's train of thought is unusually unconventional compared to ordinary people.

An elder collecting so many juniors' photos would normally raise suspicions of an illegitimate child, but he instead suspected infidelity.

Shen Yanyu's heart pounded hard; he felt he had uncovered a tremendous secret.

Even with his wrist trembling slightly, he wanted to preserve the album's cover and the photos inside.

Who knows……maybe it will be useful later.

Since being brought back home, the first thing Shen Yanyu learned was to prepare for a rainy day.

Even close relatives couldn't compare to having something tangible in hand… moreover, he had been lost for many years, and being of an outside surname, perhaps the Gu family never regarded him as one of their own.

While flipping through, Shen Yanyu silently scorned in his heart.

No wonder Bai Yunyue protected Gu Han……it turns out there is another layer to their relationship.

As he was thinking, suddenly a sound came from the hallway.

Shen Yanyu's heart jumped; he hastily put the album back and rushed out.

"Young Master Shen, what are you doing here?"

The cleaning servant who saw him looked somewhat puzzled.

"I… I came to the mezzanine to fetch something."

Shen Yanyu gave a casual reply, hurried down the hallway opposite the lattice pavilion, and returned to his own room.

After thinking it over, he placed a phone call.
