After being dumped, I turned around and married my ex-boyfriend's younger brother.

Chapter 22 The Lady's Lust

Gu Yanli always traveled in large groups, either openly or covertly.

Given his status and position, it's perfectly normal for him to have many bodyguards.

Gu Yanli wasn't a gangster, but Su Yiran felt from the bottom of her heart that he was not a simple person, though she couldn't quite put her finger on why.

"No, what are you thinking!"

Su Yiran finished bandaging him up. "Why did you run away when you saw me yesterday?"

"When, why can't I remember?"

Uncle Zhong smiled, looking at the bandage in his hand, "Your bandaging technique has improved, it looks very nice..."

Su Yiran knew he was changing the subject, but seeing his expression, she didn't ask any more questions and took him to a restaurant for dinner.

Whether it was because Uncle Zhong was accidentally injured or something else, Chen Lie was exceptionally enthusiastic towards Uncle Zhong, insisting that the doctor examine him again to see if there were any other injuries.

I don't know what happened between them last night, but Uncle Zhong didn't like Chen Lie and didn't give him a good look no matter what he said.

Instead, he looked at Su Yiran and said, "Who is this person? He doesn't seem very bright."

"Just a kind-hearted person, with no ill intentions."

Su Yiran looked at the display and smiled, "I think Mr. Gu needs you more."

Chen Lie opened his mouth, hesitated, and ultimately didn't say anything. He nodded and left.

Uncle Zhong wasn't really curious about the display; his only concern was Su Yiran.

"I heard that the Gu family's son bullied you, and the target was that unruly woman from the Liu family?"

Su Yiran was someone he had watched grow up, and he had long regarded her as his own daughter. How could he, as her father, stand idly by when his own daughter was being bullied!

Su Yiran laughed and said, "I was blind. I wouldn't even look at trash like Gu Chengjing."

Uncle Zhong had keen insight and saw early on that Gu Chengjing was no good man, but at the time he was indeed impeccable when it came to her. Some things were just said and left unsaid, without taking them to heart.

"Is that so?"

Su Yiran looked up and saw the man in front of her. She glanced at Uncle Zhong unconsciously.

Su Yiran had not expected Liu's father to appear.

"Uncle Liu."

Su Yiran stood up. "You're here too, what a coincidence."

They had only met a few times, so their relationship was neither good nor bad. When they met occasionally, they treated each other as normal elders and juniors.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu nodded, his gaze falling on the person behind Su Yiran. His expression stiffened, and he frowned, "What is your relationship?"

Uncle Zhong looked up at the other person, his gaze falling on Su Yiran, his expression complex and indescribable.

Su Yiran met Liu's father's gaze and smiled, "This is my father's friend, Uncle Zhong. He happened to have some free time these days, so he brought him to the sea for a trip."

Mr. Liu's eyes sharpened. "I know this gentleman well. If you don't mind, Uncle Liu can have a chat with him."

"This is not good."

Su Yiran stood in front of Liu's father without backing down, and smiled, "I heard that Uncle Liu came here on important business. Since you know Uncle Zhong, it's not too late to get together again later. Don't delay important matters."

Having been in a high position for so long, being rejected to his face made Liu's father feel a little embarrassed. But Su Yiran was right; he did have important business here. The Gu family had eyes and ears everywhere, and he couldn't leave a bad impression on Mr. Gu, since he had finally managed to meet him.

"That works too. Come to think of it, our family hasn't had a meal together in a long time. In a few days, we'll bring them home for a meal and get together."

"Okay, Uncle Liu."

Mr. Liu really had something to do; he turned and left as soon as he finished speaking.

Su Yiran withdrew her gaze, sat back down, and drank a large glass of water.

"Don't you have anything to ask?"

Uncle Zhong spoke up.

They have absolutely no connection, so how could they possibly be acquainted?

Su Yiran said calmly, "If you want to talk, you will. If you don't want to talk, you must have your reasons. I won't ask. Just don't be fooled by his seemingly good appearance. It's best to avoid contact with him. His methods behind the scenes are not so clean."

"Who among those who rise from nothing to a high position has clean hands?"

Uncle Zhong said, "If you want to investigate your father's affairs, you might start with him, but as you said, he's not someone to mess with."

Su Yiran was stunned. Her father was actually related to the Liu family back then.

"Do you know something?"

……

The three-day, three-night cruise trip passed in the blink of an eye. On the way back, feeling exhausted, she leaned against Gu Yanli, inhaling his unique scent, and fell soundly asleep.

The car drove smoothly, and Su Yiran slept soundly. Gu Yanli handled official business along the way, making several phone calls without waking the sleeping woman.

Instead, it was her soft breathing that made him feel sleepy.

He rarely fell asleep in the car, and this sleep lasted all the way to the Gu family manor.

As soon as the car stopped, Su Yiran woke up, leaving only the two of them in the car.

Outside, the lights were bright, but the curtains in the car blocked out the light, with only a few faint rays of light shining through the gaps, falling directly on the two people in the back seat.

She lay on the man's lap, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Yanli's sleeping face.

She gently stroked his face, her gaze lingering on the documents beside him.

Gu Yanli seems to attach great importance to this restarted project.

She had overheard him on the phone dealing with business earlier, but she was so sleepy that she couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep.

"woke up?"

As Su Yiran's thoughts drifted, a voice above her pulled her back to reality.

Gu Yanli lowered his eyes and looked at the woman in his arms.

He's very energetic, not at all like someone who just woke up.

Su Yiran admired this, as he always maintained his best condition.

"Did Mr. Gu sleep comfortably?"

Su Yiran pouted, got up from his lap, sat to one side, rubbed her arms and back, and said aggrievedly, "I didn't dare to move when I woke up, for fear of disturbing your sleep. Now my whole body is sore."

"My fault."

Seeing her like this, Gu Yanli's smile widened. He reached out and pulled her over, rubbing her arms and patting her back.

"Feeling better now?"

Su Yiran had to admit that although Gu Yanli was not as good as a professional masseur in this respect, he had done a very good job in achieving this level of exquisite skill.

Su Yiran laughed at him, "Mr. Gu is handsome and skilled, it's a real pity he doesn't work as a masseuse in a massage parlor."

"If I go, you'll be my only customer."

"But you're not my only option. There are a lot of guys working there, and it gets boring to always see the same face. Trying something new isn't a bad idea."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yanli's expression remained unchanged, but his hands on her waist tightened, pulling her into his arms. "My wife is lustful. Even I can't satisfy you, and you're already looking for someone else?"
