"Oh, so you're saying the Gu Family Manor in this world is exactly the same as the one in the novel?"
In the office, Liu Mingrui was rubbing her spanked bottom while listening to Gu Chenan's explanation with a shocked expression.
Just moments ago, Gu Chenan had Ma Bing come up to verify his story and explain the situation regarding the Gu Family Manor.
"I see," Su Qianmo let out a gentle sigh of relief.
Originally, she had trusted Gu Chenan completely, but Liu Mingrui's instigation had made her slightly suspicious that Gu Chenan might have been with another woman last night.
However, after hearing Gu Chenan's explanation, those doubts that Liu Mingrui had planted instantly vanished.
Gu Chenan held Su Qianmo's hand in his and smiled, "So, don't listen to Mingrui's nonsense anymore, okay?"
"Mm-hmm." Su Qianmo's beautiful eyes gazed at Gu Chenan as she smiled softly.
"Ahem, ahem."
From the side, Liu Mingrui cleared her throat a few times.
Gu Chenan turned his head to see Liu Mingrui waving her hand in front of his face, clearly wanting him to hold her hand as well.
Gu Chenan understood what Liu Mingrui meant but wanted to tease her a bit, so he asked, "What's wrong, Mingrui? Why are you coughing? Did you catch a cold?"
"You!"
Liu Mingrui glared at him and shoved her hand into his palm. "Hold it!"
Gu Chenan shook his head with a smile and took Liu Mingrui's hand.
Liu Mingrui glanced at how Gu Chenan was holding Su Qianmo's hand and pouted, "Hold it properly, in your palm."
Gu Chenan chuckled helplessly, "Alright, alright, alright."
With one girl's hand in each of his, Gu Chenan was truly living his best life.
"By the way, it's been ten days since you arrived, right?" Gu Chenan turned to ask Liu Mingrui.
"Yes," Liu Mingrui nodded.
Ten days had passed, which meant the next one should be arriving soon. He wondered who it would be?
However, it was still morning, and both Su Qianmo and Liu Mingrui had arrived at noon, so the next female lead would probably arrive at noon as well.
Gu Chenan was feeling a bit excited.
Even more exciting was the matter with Liu Dong. Last night, after Zhang Wei's call, Gu Chenan had received numerous calls from various people.
It was clear that Liu Dong must have called all these people.
After learning about Gu Chenan's identity, Liu Dong would definitely apologize as instructed, though that would have to wait until Liu Wan's injuries had healed somewhat.
It wouldn't be right to have Liu Wan appear in public with a face that looked like a pig's head.
At noon, while Gu Chenan was in the bathroom relieving himself, a bright light suddenly filled the room, so bright that he couldn't keep his eyes open.
"Holy crap!"
Gu Chenan instinctively covered his eyes, forgetting that he was still in the middle of his business.
After the flash of light subsided, a graceful figure appeared before him. When Gu Chenan could finally see clearly, it was Hoshino Kannon!
Hoshino Kannon was bewildered for a second, then spotted Gu Chenan. However, before her excited smile could fully bloom, her gaze fell upon little Gu Chenan.
Instantly.
!!!∑(゚Д゚ノ)ノ
"Chen-chen, what are you...?"
Of course, Gu Chenan was also excited to see Hoshino Kannon and wanted to rush over to hug her, but seeing her surprised expression made him pause, and his expression immediately turned awkward.
"Kannon-chan, long time no see," Gu Chenan greeted awkwardly.
Hoshino Kannon's cheeks reddened as she said, "Pull up your pants before talking."
"......"
"Now can we talk?" Gu Chenan smiled.
Hoshino Kannon touched her cheeks and glanced at him, "Since when did you become an exhibitionist?"
"Exhibitionist?"
Gu Chenan was stunned, "What? How am I an exhibitionist for using the bathroom?"
"Bathroom?"
Now it was Hoshino Kannon's turn to be confused. She looked around at her surroundings and suddenly exclaimed in shock, "This is the men's room?"
"Yes," Gu Chenan smiled. "Why don't you wait outside? I'll explain everything in a moment."
"Wait outside?" Hoshino Kannon smiled mischievously, "I've never seen what a men's bathroom looks like in my whole life. Now that I have the chance, let me take a good look!"
"Woohoo!"
With that, she let out an excited cry and began examining every corner of the men's bathroom.
Gu Chenan: [・_・?]
"Be careful, this is the men's room!"
"So what? There's nobody here," Hoshino Kannon dismissed his concern and continued her curious inspection of the men's room.
But just then.
The bathroom door suddenly opened, and a male director walked in.
"Mr. Gu."
He greeted Gu Chenan and stepped up to a urinal, starting to undo his belt. He had only pulled his zipper halfway down when he noticed Hoshino Kannon beside Gu Chenan.
He froze.
What the hell?
What was Mr. Gu doing?
He brought a beautiful girl into the men's room?
Was he going to...
Wow, kinky!
No, wait!
Wasn't Mr. Gu supposed to be Miss Su's fiancé? Wasn't this a bit too brazen to do right under Miss Su's nose?
Before the male director could recover from his shock, Gu Chenan had already grabbed Hoshino Kannon's hand and rushed out.
"What the hell were you thinking? That's the men's room!"
Outside the bathroom, Gu Chenan looked at Hoshino Kannon with an expression that said 'are you kidding me?'
Hoshino Kannon didn't seem to think there was anything wrong and shrugged, "It's fine! By the way, weren't you supposed to be leaving? How did I suddenly appear in this strange place?"
"Sigh."
Gu Chenan was truly helpless against Hoshino Kannon's occasionally scatterbrained personality.
He shook his head and explained the whole situation to her.
After hearing Gu Chenan's explanation, Hoshino Kannon immediately threw herself into his arms.
"So this means we'll be together forever?"
Gu Chenan stroked her hair and smiled, "Of course, we'll be together forever and ever!"
"Yay!" Hoshino Kannon exclaimed excitedly.
However, their every move outside the bathroom was being watched by the employees of Caiying.
Seeing Gu Chenan and Hoshino Kannon being so intimate, they began whispering among themselves.
"Damn, Mr. Gu is really something, getting cozy with another woman right under Miss Su's nose?"
"He's not even trying to hide it anymore? That's too bold!"
"I heard that the Miss Liu who's shooting commercials for Caiying also has an ambiguous relationship with Mr. Gu, and now there's another beautiful girl. What is Mr. Gu planning?"
"If I had a girlfriend like Miss Su, I'd give her my heart on a platter. I can't believe Mr. Gu doesn't know how to cherish what he has. Hmph, I must tell Miss Su about this!"
