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

Chapter 73 Enemies meet on a narrow road

Su Yiran was surprised to see Gu Chengjing here. She paused for a moment before walking over. "What a coincidence, Mr. Gu. Don't you think we're just destined to meet?"

"Who said we had a coincidence? I'm here to see my uncle!"

Gu Chengjing felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing her voice and instinctively took a step back.

Su Yiran smiled, glanced at the invitation in Chen Lie's hand, raised an eyebrow and took it.

"Who told you to touch it? This is for my uncle!"

Gu Chengjing frowned.

"so what?"

Su Yiran met Gu Chengjing's furious gaze, opened the invitation in front of him, and looked at the time on it.

Two days before Lunar New Year's Eve.

They really know how to pick a time.

Gu Chengjing suppressed his anger, "My uncle hates it when others touch his things. Su Yiran, just wait and see how you'll be hated by my uncle. I want to see how smug you'll be then!"

"Really? Then I'll take Gu Shaoji's words as an example. I actually hope he gets tired of me soon."

Su Yiran closed the invitation, handed it to Chen Lie, and then walked straight in, past Gu Chengjing.

“My uncle doesn’t see outsiders these days. If you dare to go in, I guarantee you’ll anger him.”

Su Yiran was standing at the office door. Upon hearing this, she stopped, turned her head to glance at him, smiled, and pushed the door open to go inside.

"..."

Gu Chengjing's face turned pale. After waiting for a while, there was still no movement from inside. He frowned and looked at Chen Lie, "Assistant Chen, didn't you say that my uncle had something to do and couldn't see anyone?"

"...Mr. Gu, please make yourself at home."

Chen Lie smiled but didn't say anything more.

Inside the office.

Su Yiran stormed in, looked at Gu Yanli who was working with his head down, and handed him the bag in her hand. "Qiao Sen left Kyoto, this is for you."

Gu Yanli looked up at the bag in front of him. "What's in it?"

"how could I know!"

Su Yiran had a cold face.

"Who messed with you again?"

Gu Yanli stood up, took the bag, and pulled Su Yiran to sit on the sofa. "Did you see Gu Chengjing outside?"

"I've come to realize that your nephew is really annoying!"

Su Yiran looked at Gu Yanli and said, "I get annoyed just hearing him talk. You're his uncle, a relative, and you'll definitely see him often in the future. Won't I be driven crazy by this?"

"so what?"

Gu Yanli looked down and opened the bag. Inside was a box containing a four-leaf clover necklace. He picked it up and put it around Su Yiran's neck.

Feeling the cool touch on her neck, Su Yiran looked at the man so close to her and reached out to touch it. "What is this?"

"I asked Johnson to bring me something earlier, but I didn't remember for a moment."

Can't remember right now?

Su Yiran raised an eyebrow and looked down at the necklace around her neck.

The design is ingenious, but the style looks familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before.

She paused for a moment, then realized what she meant.

She had seen this design draft in Gu Yanli's study before; it was in a drawer, and she had just happened to glance at it.

Why did you give me a necklace?

Su Yiran asked, "There are so many at home, but I only have one neck. What if I can't wear them all?"

“Take turns wearing them.”

Gu Yanli said softly, and the office door opened, with Chen Lie walking in.

He has a meeting later.

"gone."

Gu Yanli was in a meeting, and she didn't want to wait for him here any longer.

Su Yiran took the elevator down, and Chen Lie chased after her, "Madam, here is the test report you requested."

Two conspicuous hospital test reports came into view. Su Yiran paused for a moment, then took the reports and stuffed them into her bag as the elevator doors closed.

There is no intention to view this.

night.

Meng Ran organized the gathering, but Su Yiran was delayed by some matters and would arrive in half an hour.

Inside the private room, there were more female painters than male painters. The male painters were young, energetic, and good-looking, and they immediately became very popular.

Meng Ran, in particular, seemed to have her eyes glued to the other person's face.

It is understood that his name is Song Yanqing. He is not well-known in the industry, but his painting style is unique. In just a few years, he has established himself in the industry.

"Miss Su has arrived."

Su Yiran appeared in the private room, where several acquaintances recognized her and laughed, "You're late. Looks like we're not influential enough."

I met him at a Qiaosen exhibition before, and we had a good chat.

"Something came up and I was delayed. It's my fault. I'll punish myself with a drink."

Su Yiran smiled, poured herself a glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp, not leaving a drop.

"Miss Su has a good capacity for alcohol."

They laughed, and one of them looked at Su Yiran and exclaimed, "Miss Su looks familiar. Have we met somewhere before?"

His companion interrupted him with a laugh, "Miss Su is beautiful and capable. Your way of flirting is so outdated. You've been in the US and only came back yesterday. How could you possibly have met Miss Su? You should at least be more honest."

"real."

The man thought about it carefully, then suddenly slapped his forehead. "You were quite popular online a while ago, it seems to be because of your relationship with Wang Zeshen of the Wang family, but the trending topic was suppressed not long after."

Upon hearing this, the crowd seemed to recall something.

Su Yiran curled her lips into a smile.

It’s true that good things don’t go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

"You guys just love making things worse. Wang Zeshen has already held a press conference to explain this. What, you only see the beginning and not the end?"

Meng Ran smiled and walked to Su Yiran's side. "Our Miss Su is currently married. You male painters should settle down, or find another target, like me. I'm unmarried and still single."

The male painter was immediately deflated upon hearing that Su Yiran was already married.

Meng Ran's words instantly eased the tension.

Throughout the entire conversation, Meng Ran chatted with the others, but her gaze kept falling on Song Yanqing.

Song Yanqing was of a calm nature and only talked to a few people around her.

"You've taken a fancy to someone?"

Su Yiran walked over and nuzzled against Meng Ran, "It's rare to see someone actually steal my Ranran's soul."

"I just look rather good, so I took a second look. Don't misunderstand."

"I'd like to misunderstand. Don't think I don't know who you were referring to when you said 'unmarried, single'."

"you……"

Meng Ran opened her mouth as if to explain, but the door to the private room opened and a painter walked in. "I just went out and ran into an acquaintance. Would you mind if I invited him in for a chat?"

"Come, come, I'd like to meet some of the great painter Mo's acquaintances."

Painter Mo has a lot of influence in this industry, and he is very approachable and doesn't put on airs.

If it's the host's idea to invite outsiders, the host's approval is naturally required.

Meng Ran smiled and said, "Of course, I would also like to get to know the great painter Mo's friends."

"Speaking of which, we're actually in the same industry."

Painter Mo smiled and invited the person in.

The moment Gu Yanli appeared in the private room, Meng Ran's cerebellum shrank, and she subconsciously glanced at Su Yiran.

Su Yiran was just as shocked as Meng Ran.
