She was too shocked that she was tongue-twisted.

Gu Ranzhi didn’t even look at Zhu Yutong. Those familiar with him could see that he did it intentionally, deliberately not giving Zhu Yutong a single chance to come close.

It was indeed a bit ruthless.

However, rationally speaking, the advantages were more significant than the disadvantages.

He didn’t intend to get close in the first place, so why drag her along? He wasn’t fishing!

On the contrary, it would be good if he could make Zhu Yutong give up altogether.

Sure enough, Zhu Yutong couldn’t stand being ignored, so she left crying again.

“Brother, can’t you be more tactful?”

After all, she was a young girl in her twenties, so how could she stand her broken fantasy?

If she did anything drastic because of this, it would be bad.

Gu Ranzhi’s eyes dimmed, and he said in a deep voice,

“Since it’s impossible in this lifetime, there’s no need to drag on.”

Moreover, he had already tactfully said it too many times. It was useless!

Jiang Tingxu felt that this is a rare chance. She had never seen Gu Ranzhi this ruthless ever since he was young!

Could it be that there was something between the two of them that she did not know?

Otherwise, Gu Ranzhi usually was quite kind to others, wasn’t he?

Zhu Yutong was a young girl. Even if he wanted to reject her, there were a hundred and one ways, not just this one!

Gu Ranzhi had been able to see through the various expressions on Jiang Tingxu’s face since young, and this was no exception.

“The Zhu family does have some background.”

It could be considered as an explanation for her doubts.

Jiang Tingxu had a look of relief on her face.

Bingo, she got the truth!

However, Gu Ranzhi didn’t wish to explain further, so she felt a little tickled.

Just as Jiang Tingxu couldn’t help but wish to ask further, Mo Boyuan whispered a few words to someone and then came over.

“Honey, what are you talking about with my brother-in-law?”

Anyway, this guy was very jealous when he saw his wife hanging out with Gu Ranzhi.

Fortunately, Gu Ranzhi didn’t bother. He looked at a certain someone and then looked at his sister again:

“I’ll go over first.”

“Okay!”

After that, the couple stayed in the same corner until the end of the evening, ignoring the performances of the Hollywood celebrities.

However, during the last moment of the tense and exciting silent auction, a certain someone bought a painting, a famous painting from China’s Qing dynasty.

As the proceeds at the auction would be donated to charity, the items auctioned tonight were all sold at half the price below the market value.

It was only six million RMB, which was much cheaper than buying the island before.

After the auction, the couple had no interest in attending the Moonlight Ball on the deck outside. They went straight to their room on the third floor.

If they had the time, wouldn’t it be good to watch a few TV series episodes?

Or watch two movies or something like that.

In the luxurious suite, modern household facilities were well equipped. There were satellite phones, television, and the internet.

There was also a private balcony that allowed one to experience the beauty of nature from a close distance and enjoy the personal space.

A certain man was leisurely sipping red wine on the balcony and admiring the clear moon on the sea.

…

Meanwhile,

Gu Ranzhi was once again pestered by Zhu Yutong. His good friend once again betrayed him. This time, even Zhu Yutong’s parents were present.

“Ranzhi, look at our Yutong. She liked to chase after you since she was young. She hasn’t changed for so many years. It’s rare to see such a dedicated young lady. Why don’t you consider her?”

No choice, Zhu Yutong’s parents were also forced into a corner by their daughter. Otherwise, how could they say such things to the guy?

It was too humble.

Gu Ranzhi was indifferent. He replied calmly and said,

“No matter when I was young or now, I treat Yutong as my younger sister. I have no other thoughts!”

It was a complete rejection.
