Chapter 56 Their wives are on the other side.
Just as Chu Xinglan was thinking about his family, his wife called him.
"Lanlan, where are you? Tell me your address so I can come find you."
"Mom, I've been very busy with my studies lately, so please don't come. I'll come back to visit you after I'm done with this." Chu Xinglan lied.
“You child, even if you’re busy, you can’t not call your family. You haven’t called once in the past few days, and your dad and I are worried sick.”
"Okay, Mom, I'll be more careful next time."
“I see you’re quite busy with your studies, why don’t you tell me your address and I’ll come and take care of you.”
"No, Mom, I'm a grown man now, I don't need you to take care of me. That's all, Mom, the professor is looking for me, I'll hang up now."
“Lanlan…”
Mrs. Chu wanted to say something more, but Chu Xinglan hung up the phone.
After the call ended, Chu Xinglan saw Ye Xiaoxiao staring at her in astonishment.
"Doesn't your mom know you're at work? Does she think you're still in school?"
Chu Xinglan smiled faintly.
"I think your mom treats you quite well, so why do you seem so impatient?" Ye Xiaoxiao, who had never experienced family affection, felt a little envious when she saw Chu Xinglan.
Only Chu Xinglan knew that this so-called family affection was fake, and that she was actually no better than Ye Xiaoxiao.
But this is her own family matter; she just doesn't want to talk about it.
"I can only say that there are some tough problems in this family!"
After get off work, Chu Xinglan and Ye Xiaoxiao agreed to go to Chu Xinglan's place together.
"Secretary Chu!" Gu Ye called out to her from afar.
"Boss, what's the matter?" Chu Xinglan asked deliberately.
"Didn't we agree that I would pick you up and take you home?" Gu Ye said in a low voice.
Xue Bai, who was standing not far away, perked up his ears, wanting to hear what his boss was whispering to Chu Xinglan.
"That's just what you said, I didn't agree to it." Chu Xinglan smiled and took a few steps back. "Also, I'll be going home with Ye Xiaoxiao from now on, so I won't trouble you to take me home."
"You went home with Ye Xiaoxiao?" Gu Ye frowned.
When did this girl and Ye Xiaoxiao become so close? He found it strange when Chu Xinglan dragged Ye Xiaoxiao to his office, wanting him to arrange a job for Ye Xiaoxiao. Two women who were completely unrelated in their past lives had somehow come together in this life.
When Xue Bai overheard Ye Xiaoxiao's name, he was instantly excited, and his hearing became even more acute.
"Ye Xiaoxiao has nowhere to go and wants to stay with me for a few days."
"So you agreed?" Gu Ye's expression instantly fell.
That was the house he bought for Chu Xinglan, and someone else was added to it. How could he see her through the glass every day?
"Of course I agree, why wouldn't I?" Chu Xinglan smiled happily.
"You did this on purpose?" Gu Ye asked coldly.
"I was just trying to help someone, was I wrong?" Chu Xinglan looked aggrieved.
"Fine, whatever you do is right. This big bad wolf of mine has plenty of opportunities to drag this little white rabbit back to its den." Gu Ye smiled faintly, looking down.
"I won't give you that chance." Chu Xinglan pouted playfully, turned around and walked to Ye Xiaoxiao's side. "Xiaoxiao, let's go."
"The boss doesn't seem very happy. Is this really okay?" Ye Xiaoxiao sensed a chilling coldness in Gu Ye's gaze.
She probably didn't offend the boss, right? Maybe!
Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at Gu Ye, then looked at Chu Xinglan.
Was I wrong to make this decision?
Gu Ye watched Chu Xinglan leave. She was like a little rabbit who had successfully escaped from the clutches of a big bad wolf, leaving with a smug smile, lively and adorable!
"Boss, Miss Chu has already disappeared." Xue Bai walked to Gu Ye's side and whispered.
“I saw it, you have to say it.” Gu Ye glanced at Xue Bai.
Xue Bai shrugged innocently.
I can't keep taking my anger out on Chu Xinglan, so I'll just vent it on him!
It's only a few minutes' drive from the company to my place of residence.
After Xue Bai took Gu Ye home, he did not leave. Instead, he took the initiative to wipe the table and pour water for Gu Ye, showing a level of care that was rare in the world.
Gu Ye frowned slightly as he looked at Xue Bai's overly attentive manner.
"You're making it seem like I'm wasting my daily housekeeping money."
"No, how could it be a waste of money? I was just cleaning up a bit more while I was at it." Xue Bai smiled as he poured water for Gu Ye.
Gu Ye knew that Xue Bai was only trying to curry favor for no reason, but he pretended not to know.
"Alright, you can go now."
"No, boss, I want to stay by your side and work for you."
“If you volunteer to work overtime, I won’t pay you overtime pay.” Gu Ye took the water glass and took a sip.
"No overtime pay, boss, feel free to enslave me," Xue Bai laughed.
"Look at you, so ambitious." Gu Ye placed his water glass on the coffee table, sat down on the sofa, and said calmly, "Tell me, what's your purpose?"
"The boss is indeed the boss, he's smarter than everyone else!" Xue Bai gave a thumbs up.
"Stop flattering me, and get out if you keep talking nonsense." Gu Ye didn't want to listen to his nonsense.
"I want to stay and live with the boss," Xue Bai said, forcing himself to speak.
"Don't even think about it." Gu Ye immediately refused.
"Boss, as Miss Chu told you, my wife also lives here."
"so what?"
"Being near the water tower gives you an advantage, but you can't be the only one with this advantage. Let me have it too!" Xue Bai said ingratiatingly.
Gu Ye rubbed his temples. What a pipe dream! Keep him here, spying on the other side every day? What if he sees Lanlan's private parts?
Even though she was already very careful because she knew he was opposite her, and always kept the curtains tightly drawn so he couldn't see anything, she still didn't want Xue Bai to glance in his direction every now and then.
"Boss, please take me in for the sake of my happiness, considering how much I've done for you, even to the point of sacrificing my life."
"This is out of the question," Gu Ye said firmly.
"Boss, please take me in like a kitten or puppy."
The saying "When a person is shameless, he is invincible" is absolutely true. In order to stay here, Xue Bai didn't care about his reputation and clung to Gu Ye's long legs and wouldn't let go.
"Let go!" Gu Ye felt goosebumps rise all over his body.
"I won't let go unless the boss agrees. I'll stay here and not leave." Xue Bai hugged Gu Ye's leg even tighter, like a sulking, complaining woman.
"Look at you, so shameless. She's your wife, and you've already lost all sense of shame?" Gu Ye felt that he was beyond saving.
"The boss doesn't seem to have as many faces as I do," Xue Bai muttered.
"Alright, alright. A grown man acting like a woman, throwing a tantrum, you're really pathetic." Gu Ye had no choice but to rub his temples. "It's not like you can't stay if you want."
"Really, you're the best boss in the world." Xue Bai jumped up excitedly, almost hugging Gu Ye and kissing him, but when he came to his senses, he felt disgusted with himself.
Gu Ye, needless to say, got goosebumps all over his body.
"I'm going to take a shower!" Gu Ye practically shouted.
