Gu Shiyan’s car stopped at the entrance.

Lu Miao instinctively halted her steps.

The car door opened, and Gu Shiyan stepped out. The dusk sky cast a warm, golden hue from the nearby lamppost, lending a gentle touch to her usually aloof demeanor. Wind-blown strands of hair framed her face, adding a hint of tenderness.

Gu Shiyan’s gaze softened as he walked toward her. His voice carried a hint of playfulness, “Waiting for me?”

Lu Miao replied emotionlessly, “I just wanted to know how Auntie Xiu is doing. When will she return?”

Gu Shiyan’s lips curved up, taking a step closer. His slightly rough fingertips brushed a fallen leaf off her shoulder.

Lu Miao furrowed her brows and, in that instant, grabbed his wrist as he withdrew his hand.

She pulled his hand towards her and sniffed it. ‘What’s wrong?” Gu Shiyan remained unfazed, allowing her to hold his hand.

Still suspicious, Lu Miao stepped forward and stood face-to-face with Gu Shiyan. Her other hand grabbed his tie, exerting a slight force as she pulled him down towards her.

Gu Shiyan offered no resistance and bent down, looking at her from above. With one hand held by her and the other placed behind her head, from this angle, it appeared as if he was about to kiss her.

Suddenly, the entrance gate creaked open, and Lu Yinan peered out.

Lu Miao had texted him when she was still in the car, so he knew she was about to arrive home. Hearing the car sound a while ago, he came out to see what she was up to. However, what he witnessed when he opened the gate was…Gu Shiyan doing something to his sister?!

Lu Yinan’s anger flared up instantly. How dare Gu Shiyan try anything on his sister!

He was about to rush forward to separate them, but wait, why was Miao Miao grabbing Gu Shiyan’s tie?

And looking closer, wasn’t it Mr Gu being forcibly kissed?!

Lu Yinan couldn’t ruin his sister’s moment!

He quickly retreated back inside, slamming the gate shut.

In action, he signaled them to continue and that he wouldn’t disturb them.

Lu Miao let go of Gu Shiyan’s hand and looked at him. “Who did you meet today?”

Gu Shiyan glanced at his wrist, where her touch seemed to linger. He smiled softly, “Are you checking up on me?”

“I’m not that boring.” Lu Miao pushed the gate open and walked inside.

Gu Shiyan was about to follow, but Lu Miao deftly pulled the gate shut in front of him with a resounding thud.

Gu Shiyan laughed softly, reached out, pushed the door open again, and walked in.

In the living room, Lu Yinan observed him with a strange look in his eyes.

He had assumed that Gu Shiyan was the dominant and more assertive one in his relationship with Lu Miao. But now it seemed like it was his sister who held the upper hand.

To think that Mr. Gu, the prestigious Second Master of the powerhouse Gu family, had been forcibly kissed by his sister!

It’s not that Mr. Gu won over their family’s precious daughter; it’s more like the precious daughter swept him off his feet.

Realizing this fact, Lu Yinan’s feelings were complex. He couldn’t decide whether to be happy or unhappy about it.

Ignoring Lu Yinan’s perplexed gaze, Gu Shiyan went straight upstairs.

When he reached Lu Miao’s room, he raised his hand to knock but reconsidered and withdrew it. Instead, he headed to his own room.

After freshening up and changing into comfortable home clothes, he came back downstairs.

In the dining room, Lu Miao checked her phone and saw that it was already 7:30 PM, but Gu Jinxi hadn’t returned yet.

Usually, since he arrived at Lingyue Manor with her, he followed a routine of going to school, returning home on time, and even called her when he couldn’t come back in time due to some matter.

What happened in these two days? He seemed different.

She dialed his number, but the call went unanswered.

Gu Shiyan walked over and sat down in the chair next to her. Seeing the name displayed on her phone screen, he said directly, “Don’t worry about him. He’ll be fine.”

Lu Miao put her phone away and looked at the table with dishes like Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, deer tendons, and osmanthus fish fins—it was almost like a grand banquet.

She rubbed her forehead with her hand. “Have you sent someone to check on

Auntie Xiu?”

“Yes.” Gu Shiyan nodded, picked up the public chopsticks, and picked some vegetarian sautéed lilies, putting them in her bowl.

“I’ve already had someone look into it. Her youngest son is hospitalized with a serious illness, and her family is in chaos. She can’t leave temporarily.” Lu Miao swallowed the lily and asked, “Do you know what illness he has?”

Seeing that she seemed to like it, Gu Shiyan added more lilies to her bowl. “It’s leukemia.”

Lu Miao paused in her eating. Bone marrow transplantation was the most direct and effective treatment for this disease. Traditional Chinese medicine could be cumbersome in comparison, but the surgery and subsequent treatments could be costly.

As if guessing what she was thinking, Gu Shiyan said, “Don’t worry, I’ve already sent money to help.”

Noticing that she accidentally stained the plate with oil, he reached for a wet tissue and handed it to her.

Lu Miao nodded, taking the tissue to wipe her hands before continuing to eat.

Lu Yinan hid in a corner, secretly observing them. He watched as Gu Shiyan listened to his sister, taking care of her meticulously from the meal to wiping her hands.

Well, seeing that he was at least caring, Lu Yinan decided not to say much for now.

After dinner, Lu Miao went upstairs, and Gu Shiyan got up and followed behind her.

Before she could close the door, he extended his hand to block it.

“What’s the matter?” Lu Miao looked up at him.

Gu Shiyan directly said, “After leaving in the morning, I went straight to the company, and at noon, I met with a partner along with my secretary…”

Lu Miao then realized that he was answering the question she asked earlier at the front door.

Feeling a bit speechless, she said, “Who cares about those details? I just sensed a strange smell coming from you.”

“What smell?” Gu Shiyan raised his hand to sniff, but besides the lingering fragrance of the shower gel, he didn’t detect anything else..
