Matt came out from the side and ran towards Gu Jinlan, panting.

Gu Jinlan glared at him and complained, "You were the one who asked me to come out, and you were also the one who was late. Do you know that my time is precious?"

Matt retorted, "You also know that your time is precious? Then why did you go to Time Group to work as a worker?"

Gu Jinlan: "Will you die if you don't speak properly?"

Matt shrugged: "Yeah, will you die if you don't talk nicely?"

“……”Gu Jinlan turned and left.

Matt grabbed her wrist and said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong. I didn't see you taking any gunpowder last night. Why are you angry now?"

Gu Jinlan glanced at him and said, "Let's go quickly, it's almost dawn!"

Then the two found a small bar and sat down.

Matt poured a glass of wine for Gu Jinlan and handed it to him. "Tell me, what do you think? I don't believe you would go to Time Group for a monthly salary of 50,000."

Gu Jinlan didn't say anything, just picked up the wine glass and started drinking.

She had originally planned to go to bed early tonight, but after knowing Shi Ye's identity, she felt very confused and just wanted to drink some wine, so when Matt called her, she came out.

After finishing the wine in the glass, Gu Jinlan finally spoke: "It's really for the salary."

Matt shook his head. "I don't believe it. I can understand why you went to Aolington before. After all, they invited you several times. You like children, so it's not bad to experience life. Then, did you go to Time Group this time because you like Shi Ye?"

Gu Jinlan had just picked up the bottle to pour the wine when his hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Matt raised his eyebrows. "Is that true?"

Gu Jinlan smiled and continued to pour wine, saying calmly, "I am such a greedy person, I only do it for money. Anyway, I have nothing to do, and I don't have to draw designs 24 hours a day. I can earn a little more, and who would complain about having too much money?"

She winked at Matt and said, "Really?"

Matt looked incredulous. "But you want to make money so badly that it's already abnormal. Blue's income is so considerable, how could it not be enough for you? Tell me the truth, are you addicted to drugs or gambling? You look so thin, are you really taking drugs?"

Gu Jinlan almost spit out a mouthful of wine and quickly took a piece of paper to wipe the corners of his lips.

She glared at Matt fiercely, "How dare you think of that!"

Matt pressed on: "Then why are you trying so hard to make money? If you don't tell me the truth tonight, I will..."

"What are you doing?"

"I...I will die in front of you."

"Okay, go ahead, I'll watch and I'll collect your body. What style of funeral do you like?"

"..." Matt suddenly covered his chest with a look of pain, "Gu Jinlan, you are really going to piss me off to death! I saw you acted very well in front of Shi Ye, why are you so fierce in front of me?"

"So do you think I am more familiar with you or him?"

"Oh, I see. You just like to take advantage of your acquaintances."

After hearing what Gu Jinlan said, Matt felt better.

The fact that she was so casual and unrestrained in front of him showed that she trusted him and did not treat him as an outsider.

Gu Jinlan took the opportunity to change the topic and Matt's focus and asked, "Luo Xi is getting married tomorrow. Do you really plan to do this?"

Matt was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed.

Gu Jinlan said, "Don't avoid the question. It's just the two of us now. You should know clearly that Luo Xi has liked you since high school."

Matt put away his nonchalant expression and said seriously, "But I don't like her."

Gu Jinlan asked: "Who do you like then?"

Matt looked at her and rolled his eyes proudly, "There are so many girls I like. Ruth just called me crying and said she missed me so much after just one day of not seeing me."

Gu Jinlan shook her head speechlessly, "Scumbag."

Matt didn't care. "So, I'm not worthy of Luo Xi. Luo Xi is a good girl. I also observed tonight that Zhao Jingchuan treats her very well. He is a good match for her. Luo Xi's personality is likable, and Zhao Jingchuan should be able to make her happy in the future."

Gu Jinlan said helplessly: "She is quite likable, but you just don't like her."

She can no longer freely choose the love she wants, so she hopes that her best friend can marry for love.

Matt looked at Gu Jinlan and said, "You are usually quite cold, but you are very concerned about Luo Xi and me. We are both your good friends. Do you want to keep the benefits to yourself?"

Gu Jinlan said, "I just don't want to see you regret it in the future, so I hope you can think it through. Now that you have thought it through, just let it go. No one can guarantee what will happen in the future."

Perhaps, even if you marry for love, there may not be a good result.

In this world, the things that cannot stand the test of time are human hearts and emotions.

Maybe Luo Xi’s choice was right. At least Zhao Jingchuan loved her and would take care of her.

Moreover, Zhao Jingchuan also has the ability to protect her throughout her life.

"Lanlan, there is something I want to say..." Matt stared at Gu Jinlan with a mysterious look in his eyes, "I have always wanted to tell you."

Seeing Matt's serious expression, Gu Jinlan suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, "Are you going to tell me that you have embezzled a lot of money while managing Blue in the past few years?"

Matt was stunned.

Gu Jinlan's face instantly turned cold. "If that's the case, I might kill you if you tell me that. I can accept others cheating on my feelings, but they can't cheat me of my money."

Matt laughed so hard that his shoulders shook. "You, you are really obsessed with money. It seems that you don't love anyone except money in this life."

Gu Jinlan: "Nonsense, who doesn't love money? Only the money in your own hands is the most reliable. Only your own money will not deceive or betray you. It is completely under your control."

"Okay, just say what you want to say. You're a grown man, don't be so fussy."

Matt took a sip of wine, "Well... I... I just felt that when we met again abroad that year, you seemed like a completely different person. You've changed a lot from before."

Gu Jinlan was surprised, "Is this what you wanted to say?"

Matt nodded and took another sip of his drink.

She glanced at him and said, "I thought you were going to say something incredible. People will definitely change when they grow up. There is no unchanging heart in this world, so how can there be an unchanging person?"

"Yes, yes, you're right." Matt reached out and clinked glasses with Gu Jinlan, "Come on, drink!"

It was one o'clock in the morning when Gu Jinlan staggered back to the hotel.

I swiped the card to open the door, and just as I stepped into the room, before I could close the door, a figure suddenly jumped in.

She turned suddenly, reacting subconsciously to protect herself, and threw a punch behind her.

Someone grabbed my wrist in mid-air.
