Chapter 107: Chapter 84 Another Key Plot

“Let’s go, let’s go watch together.”

“Speaking of which, Mr. Gu has been so active lately, it’s as if he’s not really a CEO. I think, he’s here just for our Xiaoxiao.”

“Like a peacock showing its feathers, yeah, I get it.”

With Ye Xiao as the center of their attention, they all left in a lively and noisy group.

Ye Bingtong watched their departing figures with a sullen look, her eyes seemingly hiding endless hatred!

Ye Xiao, just be smug for now.

One day, I will let you know that I am the ultimate winner.

Ye Bingtong gathered her thoughts, recalling what they had said earlier.

Gu Yan is actually coming here to join a basketball game?

Basketball and Gu Yan.

They seemed to be two completely unrelated terms.

Could it really be that he’s here because of Ye Xiao?

Ye Bingtong pursed her lips, utterly unwilling to believe it.

Even if Gu Yan were indeed pursuing Ye Xiao, it surely wouldn’t be out of affection.

Gu Yan just wanted to use Ye Xiao to solidify the alliance with the Ye Family, that’s all.

When you get down to it.

Ye Xiao merely has the advantage of her status!

If I were still the daughter of the Ye Family and engaged to Gu Cheng, then Gu Yan wouldn’t give Ye Xiao a second glance.

After all, for a marriage alliance, Gu Cheng and I were enough!

Hmph.

Ye Xiao has no clue that in Gu Yan’s heart, she’s just a tool for a marriage alliance, right?

I’m really looking forward to seeing her collapse when she finds out.

Ye Bingtong hid the malice in her eyes and, after thinking for a moment, followed them.

Under no circumstance would she forgo the chance to see Gu Cheng.

But.

Gu Cheng has mobility issues and normally, he never leaves the house.

With my current status, there’s no way I can even enter the Gu Family’s gate, let alone see Gu Cheng.

If I could get Gu Yan to put in a word for me and arrange a meeting with Gu Cheng, that would be ideal.

Clutching onto that hope, Ye Bingtong hurried along after them.

Basketball court.

Both sides were already packed with people.

On an ordinary day, a regular friendly game wouldn’t cause such a stir.

But this time.

It’s Gu Yan, after all!

The big CEO stripping off his suit to play basketball?

Who wouldn’t want to see that!

Ye Xiao and her group, because they had classes, arrived to find hardly any vacant seats left.

“Damn, Mr. Gu is too popular. There are no seats left!”

“Let’s just stand and watch.”

“If we’re standing, we need to get closer to the front, or we won’t see anything.”

During their conversation, they were continuously jostled by the crowd.

Ye Xiao was taken aback.

No.

It’s just a basketball game.

Is all this frenzy really necessary?

[Ah, help! I’m going to get squashed to death.] Ye Xiao roared in her mind.

Gu Yan lifted his gaze, locking onto Ye Xiao with precision.

He had been warming up.

Then, he took the basketball and walked straight towards Ye Xiao.

“Huh? Mr. Gu is coming up here!”

“Who is he looking for?”

With just a look from Gu Yan, the crowd uncontrollably parted to create a path.

Gu Yan strode up to Ye Xiao, “I’ve reserved a spot for you up front.”

“Ohh.” Ye Xiao awkwardly responded.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you there,” Gu Yan nodded.

Side by side, the two made their way to the front, and Gu Yan led Ye Xiao to the first row, “You sit here.”

Ye Xiao continued to nod.

Gu Yan raised an eyebrow, “I’m going to continue warming up.”

“Okay.” Ye Xiao was still nodding.

And indeed, Gu Yan went back to warming up.

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but sneak a glance.

How should I put it?

Gu Yan had previously flaunted his physique once.

The abdominal muscles could be faintly seen.

This time, wearing a loose sports vest, the abs weren’t visible, but…

The loose clothing offered its own kind of understated allure.
