Xu Meng thought these two were insane!

They were crazy!

She was crazy too, for actually believing there were normal handsome men and beautiful women here and coming out specifically to see them!

Wouldn’t it have been better to stay in the dorm and enjoy the air conditioning in weather this hot?

Xu Meng was angry.

Xu Meng stomped her feet.

Xu Meng glared at Lin Zheng and Gu Yanche.

In her eyes, the two of them looked like a shameless pair of adulterous lovers.

But no matter how angry she was, that was her business. Gu Yanche and Lin Zheng didn’t really care.

Lin Zheng was still trying to argue with Gu Yanche and come out on top.

Lin Zheng demanded, “Gu Xiaoche! Tell me, what are you planning to do to me when we get home tonight?”

Was he planning to push her off the eighteenth floor?

System: 【Host, you’re renting an old residential building. There isn’t even an eighteenth floor…】

Lin Zheng: Shut your little mouth!

System: System was speechless.

Gu Yanche’s gaze shifted away uncomfortably. “I didn’t plan to do anything…”

No matter how shameless he was, he didn’t want to discuss private matters between him and Lin Zheng in front of so many people.

Besides, he was certain that if he said anything, Lin Zheng would definitely get angry.

He couldn’t say it.

The more hesitant he became, the stranger Lin Zheng found him!

Something was wrong. Was he planning to kill his girlfriend and make room for the female lead?

The system weakly said, 【Host, the female lead hasn’t even appeared yet!】

Lin Zheng pushed the chubby little bird system aside and stared at Gu Yanche. She looked like she was about to bore a hole through him.

“Gu Xiaoche, confess and you’ll be treated leniently; resist and you’ll be punished severely! Come clean!”

Gu Yanche said awkwardly, “I… I bought the milk you like. You can drink it when we get home.”

He had embellished it a little. She would know when they got home.

Lin Zheng stared at him from every possible angle. Seeing how honest he looked, she figured he probably didn’t have the guts to lie to her.

“I’ll inspect it when we get home. If I’m not satisfied, I won’t forgive you!”

Gu Yanche: Had he just made another mistake?

The tips of his ears turned slightly red. She would definitely like the milk tonight.

Even if she didn’t like it, that was fine.

He had other things too.

The more Gu Yanche thought about it, the less interested he was in setting up the stall. He wished he could immediately take his girlfriend home and put his plans into practice.

He had watched quite a few little movies and studied the relevant materials.

But when it came to actually doing it, they would have to try it together for him to know.

Gu Yanche felt that the weather was simply too hot. Making grilled cold noodles also made it easy to overheat!

The temperature was way too high today!

His whole body felt unbearably hot.

Setting up a stall wasn’t a long-term solution. Once his salary went up, he wouldn’t do it anymore. He should focus on his job and strive for more promotions and raises.

Lin Zheng looked into Gu Yanche’s eyes and felt that something about him was strange.

Huh? Wait, why were his ears so red?

It was so hot out. Could he have gotten heatstroke?

Lin Zheng was seriously suspicious that Gu Yanche had heatstroke.

She placed her palm against his forehead. “It doesn’t feel hot.”

Gu Yanche’s Adam’s apple kept bobbing as he looked at Lin Zheng and swallowed.

The veins on his neck bulged slightly as he struggled to hold himself back.

It was too tight.

He needed to change into a looser pair of underwear. The current ones were constricting him uncomfortably, leaving him in an awkward state of neither here nor there.

He had bought the wrong size.

His voice became slightly hoarse. “I’m fine. I’m just a little hot.”

Lin Zheng comforted him, “After tonight, we’re not setting up the stall anymore!”

If the male lead died of heatstroke, wouldn’t she get blamed for it?

According to every novel she had ever read, if the male lead died, the entire novel world would collapse!

Terrifying! Horrifying!

She couldn’t lose her forty billion! That was her lifeline!

Gu Yanche stared intently at her, ignoring everyone around them. His eyes could only hold her.

“Mm. I’ll listen to you.” Whenever he faced Lin Zheng, his voice unconsciously became gentler.

Setting up a stall had no future. He couldn’t support his wife and children with it.

He had to quickly develop a profitable side business. He couldn’t keep muddling along anymore!

Seeing the two of them flirting, Xu Meng stomped her foot hard. “Enough! Are you here to sell grilled cold noodles, or are you here to flirt?”

Watching this was making her eyes go blind!

If she had known, she wouldn’t have come out!

Damn it!

The system reminded her: 【Host, the supporting female character knows the male lead, but he’s wearing a mask, and his personality has changed so much that she doesn’t recognize him. You need to take off the male lead’s mask and let her see his face. Then she can go back and tell the female lead!】

Lin Zheng looked at Gu Yanche’s busy back.

Right, this guy had been wearing a mask the entire time.

Unless the supporting female character had supernatural vision, there was absolutely no way she could recognize this guy as the male lead!

Lin Zheng gave the system an OK sign. She picked up the water beside her and walked over to Gu Yanche, deliberately imitating the system’s coquettish voice.

“Yanche, look at how hot you are. Come have some water!”

Her voice was naturally sweet, but she deliberately made it even more coquettish, sounding extremely flirtatious.

It was so sweet and delicate that it could practically make a man’s bones go soft.

She carefully removed Gu Yanche’s mask, wiped the sweat from his face with a tissue, then unscrewed the cap of the bottled water and held it to his lips.

Lin Zheng’s voice was so coquettish it practically dripped with honey.

Gu Yanche’s ears turned bright red as he stared at her blankly.

She was wiping his sweat, and he felt as though he had been frozen in place, completely unable to move.

Then she fed him water. He opened his mouth and drank, feeling as though even his entire mouth had become sweet.

And his pants were getting tighter again.

It was extremely uncomfortable.

Gu Yanche frowned slightly and swallowed again. If only they could go home right now…

There were still several portions of grilled cold noodles left to sell, but that didn’t matter. They should go home first and let him satisfy his girlfriend, so she would stop teasing him all the time. He was practically suffering to death!

Xu Meng, who had been completely ignored by the two of them, had no time to be angry.

Because she had seen Gu Yanche’s face!

That face—she had only ever seen him from a distance a few times before, and she had never been able to get close to him!

This was the person in charge of the Gu family, Gu Yanche!

Why was he selling grilled cold noodles at this shabby night market?

Xu Meng exclaimed, “President Gu, why are you here?”

Gu Yanche was extremely displeased with Xu Meng. She had interrupted his private time with his girlfriend!

When he turned toward Xu Meng, the tenderness on his face disappeared, replaced by a stern, cold expression.

“We’re closing. We’re not selling anymore. If you want grilled cold noodles, come back next time!”

There wouldn’t be a next time!

His girlfriend felt sorry for him and had said they wouldn’t set up the stall anymore.

The grilled-cold-noodle equipment and even this tricycle would all have to be sold.

Under Xu Meng’s shocked and disbelieving gaze, Gu Yanche rode away on the tricycle with Lin Zheng.

Xu Meng stood there, wondering if she had somehow seen wrong.

No.

That man looked exactly like President Gu!

With such an unmistakably handsome face, there was no way she could mistake him!

Even a fake President Gu wouldn’t be that handsome!

The more Xu Meng thought about it, the more convinced she became.

No wonder Jiang Manshu had said the stall owner was handsome enough to transcend the galaxy. So this man was actually President Gu!

And Jiang Manshu was actually trying to make President Gu her boyfriend?

She could dream on!

What Xu Meng couldn’t understand was why President Gu was with an unfamiliar woman, and why he treated that woman so well.

Wait.

They were boyfriend and girlfriend!

Xu Meng shook her head again and again. “How could President Gu possibly fall for an ordinary woman?”

“But then why?”

Xu Meng kept thinking about it all the way back to the dormitory.

Lin Zheng was extremely curious about what kind of milk Gu Yanche had bought.

Judging by his mysterious behavior, it must be some luxury brand!

Lin Zheng was actually looking forward to it.

Gu Yanche had seen plenty of good things. He had only lost his memory; his brain hadn’t been damaged.

So if he said something was good, then it really was good!

Gu Yanche kept her in suspense. “Go take a shower. I’ll tell you when you come out.”

Lin Zheng pouted. If she couldn’t find it herself, she wouldn’t listen to him!

She took a shower, and Gu Yanche hurried off to shower as well.

Lin Zheng called from outside the bathroom, “Gu Yanche, why are you taking a shower? At least take it out for me first!”

Take it out?

Gu Yanche looked down.

If he didn’t wash it properly first, she would definitely dislike it when he took it out.
