Chapter 426: Room for Improvement
But Yunxi's expectations were quickly dashed. Wearing a mask, he borrowed the phone from the housekeeper who cooked at the villa and dialed a number he knew by heart.
In Siyuan Garden, Shao Chongsi was cooking when he felt a vibration in his pocket, so he called Gu Chengyuan over.
Gu Chengyuan: "What's wrong?"
Shao Chongsi was chopping vegetables without even wearing an apron. His long legs, encased in a suit, were on full display, and the curves of his legs were both sexy and just right.
Gu Chengyuan looked him over for a moment before slowly answering the phone and putting it on speakerphone.
A hurried male voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hey, Takashi, please help me... I'm in trouble. Please help me, for the sake of the time I saved you before..."
As he chopped vegetables, Shao Chongsi said casually and indifferently, "Okay, where are you? I'll send someone to pick you up."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chengyuan's knuckles turned slightly white as he gripped his phone, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Hearing this conversation, he knew it was Yunxi. However, he wasn't entirely sure about Shao Chongsi... after all, Yunxi had probably spent more time with him?
So now he's unsure whether Shao Chongsi will really help him, or whether his previous words about torturing Yunxi were just empty talk.
Moreover, Shao Chongsi didn't take any action at all... This makes one wonder if he couldn't bring himself to deal with it.
Yunxi felt much happier after hearing this. He knew Shao Chongsi would help him, and he happily gave him the address and location.
Shao Chongsi also assured him that he wouldn't bring any extra people.
Yunxi was overjoyed and immediately returned the phone to the cook. He happily went back to put on makeup, feeling confident that Shao Chongsi would definitely come to see him tonight.
Even though they broke up, Shao Chongsi must still have feelings for him, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed so readily.
After their call ended, Gu Chengyuan tossed the phone back into Shao Chongsi's pocket and sat down on the sofa without saying a word.
Shao Chongsi: "..." Before he could explain, A Yuan left. He was still slicing the beef in his hand and couldn't reach out to grab him.
And Ah Yuan must have thought he wasn't doing anything productive. He had promised to torment Yunxi, but he didn't get a chance to show off because Yunxi offended Chi Yining, and Yan Guiyun also had to do something... so it wasn't his turn at all.
Yunxi had just been released when she was captured by Li Duo again. Just when he was wondering where to look for her, Yunxi walked right into his trap and finally fell into his hands.
As a result, A Yuan misunderstood again, but the work at hand could not be stopped.
Shao Chongsi sighed and continued.
After the meal
When Shao Chongsi invited people over for dinner, Gu Chengyuan didn't react much. He showed no emotion, no hint of joy or sorrow. As expected of a movie star, there was no desire in his eyes. He treated the meal as if it were nothing special.
Don't you have anything to say?
Shao Chongsi finally couldn't help but ask, "A-Yuan, how is it?"
After slowly chewing a mouthful of rice, Gu Chengyuan said, "There's room for improvement."
Shao Chongsi: "..." That's far from the point.
He had some self-doubt, but he felt that eating it himself wasn't bad.
It seems that A Yuan might really be angry.
He put down his chopsticks and said very seriously, "I know you might be angry because of the phone call just now, but please let me explain first, okay?"
Gu Chengyuan's gaze darkened upon hearing this, and he looked at him expressionlessly, "Tell me."
Shao Chongsi: "I had someone release some damaging information about me before, right?"
Gu Chengyuan nodded to indicate that they should continue.
Shao Chongsi: "Before I could provide any solid evidence, although I had plenty of evidence at the time, it was far less effective than what Chi Yining revealed."
