To seduce her

It seemed that Gao Yuchuan's gloomy face scared Xia Yizhui.

Gao Yushan felt a little guilty.

He had known for a long time that because of the bad things he had done in the past, Xia Yizhui was always afraid of Gao Yuchuan.

She had seen Gao Yuchuan with a dark face and angry temper, so she was naturally afraid of him.

How could he just say that as long as Gao Yuchuan agreed, it would be fine?

"Don't worry, nothing like that will happen." Gao Yushan said softly, "I'll ask him later. Maybe Gao's company has a lot of things going on recently, so he's a little tired."

Gao Yushan paused and added, "Besides, he loves to look grumpy. Just ignore him, be good."

Gao Yushan patted her hands, wanting to comfort her, but he was unsure.

Xia Yizhui said "Oh" and nodded, trying to believe what Gao Yushan said.

But it was obvious that she was still very worried.

So after dinner, Gao Yushan walked up to Gao Yuchuan and asked in a low voice: "What happened to you today?"

Gao Yuchuan heard this and looked back at him inexplicably: "What's wrong?"

"Are you exhausted by work, or are you worried about something?" Gao Yushan stated, "You don't look very happy."

Gao Yuchuan frowned slightly, realizing the problem: "It's okay, don't let me affect your business."

Gao Yushan looked at him suspiciously: "Are you really okay?"

"Well, it's okay."

"Then don't look so gloomy." Gao Yushan reminded: "My wife is timid, she is afraid of you. Don't scare her."

Gao Yuchuan: "..."

……

Seeing Gao Yushan chatting with Gao Yuchuan, Xia Yizhuo sat aside and watched them from a distance.

When Shen Yao first saw her, she asked her in confusion, "What are you looking at?"

Xia Yizhu came back to her senses: "Sister Yaochu, Mr. Gao... is he unhappy because we came back? Or does he not like me and Yushan being together?"

Shen Yaochu's heart skipped a beat before she reacted.

It turned out that Gao Yuchuan's low pressure had been felt by everyone present.

She quickly grabbed Xia Yizhu's hand and said softly, "Yizhu, it's not what you think. Yuchuan doesn't dislike you. It's... there was a little misunderstanding between us. It has nothing to do with you."

Xia Yizhu frowned, looking puzzled: "Small problem? But he looks really angry. I don't want to make him unhappy because of our arrival, nor do I want to cause trouble for you."

Shen Yaochu patted the back of Xia Yizhu's hand and comforted him, "It's really not your problem. There's just a little misunderstanding between him and me."

After saying that, Shen Yaochu seized an opportunity and pulled Xia Yizhui to a quiet corner.

She looked around and made sure no one was paying attention, then she lowered her voice and said to Xia Yizhu, "He knew I went to the villa halfway up the mountain, so he got jealous."

After saying that, Shen Yaochu added: "He has no opinion on you, don't worry about it."

"Go there...what's wrong?" Xia Yizhu looked at him nervously: "Did he know about my affairs?"

"Of course not, I didn't tell him. He's just petty and jealous." Shen Yaochu sighed helplessly: "He asked me who that person was, but I promised you not to tell anyone about your background, so I didn't tell him. As a result, he thought I was hiding something and had a big misunderstanding."

Xia Yizhu suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. It's all because of me that you two quarreled."

Xia Yizhu's face turned red and white, looking very embarrassed: "I... I really don't know what to do."

Her eyes were filled with guilt and her hands were twisted together nervously.

Shen Yaochu quickly comforted her: "It's not your fault, he's just too sensitive. I'll explain it to him after he calms down. Don't take it personally. The most important thing now is you and the baby. Stay in a good mood."

Xia Yizu nodded, but still felt a little guilty.

She had already asked Shen Yaochu to help her deal with this matter, which was already troublesome enough for her.

Now it's affecting her family...

Xia Yizhu lowered his eyes: "I hope Mr. Gao can calm down soon. I don't want you and your wife to have conflicts because of me."

"No, don't worry." Shen Yaochu replied with a smile.

In the study, the light was dim. Gao Yuchuan sat at the desk with a frown on his face, his expression still gloomy.

He lowered his head to deal with documents, but the nameless anger and jealousy in his heart kept disturbing him and making him very irritated.

At this moment, there was a slight knock on the door.

"Come in." His voice was low and a little displeased.

The door slowly opened and Xia Yizhuo walked in with a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

She closed the door carefully and walked to Gao Yuchuan's desk.

Gao Yuchuan looked up at him, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Xia Yizhu was a little timid, and after hesitating for a while, he said softly: "Mr. Gao, I...I want to talk to you."

Gao Yuchuan looked at Xia Yizhui.

Thinking of Gao Yushan's words, she finally pursed her lips and put away the hostility around her.

After all, she is his sister-in-law.

"What's the matter?" Gao Yuchuan asked her.

Xia Yizhu bit her lip and mustered up the courage to say, "I know there is some misunderstanding between you and Sister Yaochu. I came here to explain for her. In fact, Sister Yaochu went to the villa halfway up the mountain to help me deliver something. Please don't misunderstand her."

Gao Yuchuan frowned even more tightly: "What kind of thing does she need to go in person to deliver? When did you two become so close that you even cover for each other?"

Xia Yizhui's expression changed slightly.

She really had a shadow over Gao Yuchuan, and when his tone became gloomy, she became even more afraid.

But in order not to cause trouble for Shen Yaochu, she had to make it clear.

Xia Yizhu said softly: "Because of some reasons that cannot be told, it is... related to my life experience. There is no one around me that I can trust, and only Sister Yaochu treats me well, so I asked her for help. I didn't expect to cause your misunderstanding..."

Xia Yizhu clenched his palms: "But please believe me, she really has nothing to do with the owner of the villa halfway up the mountain."

Looking at Xia Yizhuo's sincere yet somewhat flustered look, Gao Yuchuan's doubts were slightly alleviated.

Xia Yizhui was timid and afraid of him, so she probably didn't dare to lie in front of him.

What she said about her life story matched what Shen Yaochu said.

Shen Yaochu has always been a man who keeps his promises.

"Your background?" Gao Yuchuan frowned: "Gao Yushan doesn't know?"

"Well..." Xia Yizhu lowered his eyes to hide his emotions: "He is very busy at work. I am afraid that he will know about this and worry about me again... He has been good enough to me."

Xia Yizhu mustered up the courage to look directly into Gao Yuchuan's eyes: "Mr. Gao, I hope you will trust Sister Yaochu and stop misunderstanding her..."

Gao Yuchuan looked at Xia Yizhu for two seconds and asked her, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell Gao Yushan?"

"..."
