CHAPTER 60: CHAPTER 60: EVERYTHING IS SET IN STONE, STILL WANT TO PLAY HARD TO GET?

Tang Yuxiu suddenly shouted in a deep voice, suppressing hearts in the otherwise silent black and white apartment.

Gu Yan’s hand trembled suddenly, nearly pulling off the button she was holding.

She looked up, both ashamed and puzzled, at Tang Yuxiu, unsure of what he intended to do.

Tang Yuxiu’s indifferent face now had a shade of gloominess, and Gu Yan couldn’t help but shrink her neck.

She wasn’t intentionally slow in undressing; she was just too nervous and her hands shook. The more anxious a person is, the more they struggle to accomplish tasks!

Just as she was about to apologize, Tang Yuxiu spoke first.

"Since you’ve come this far, you should have been mentally prepared for this! What, everything is set in stone and you still want to play hard to get?"

Gu Yan’s little face flushed with embarrassment as she defended herself, "You’re overthinking it, I didn’t do anything like that."

"Hmph." Tang Yuxiu snorted coldly, his whole demeanor exuding disdain for Gu Yan.

Gu Yan stiffly pulled at the corners of her mouth. Let him think what he wants of her, let him say whatever unpleasant words he wants, she would just endure it!

From a young age, she might not have excelled in other areas, but her endurance was unmatched!

Who is Tang Yuxiu anyway? Hasn’t she been mocked, looked down upon, and falsely accused before?

"President Tang, please be patient for a moment longer, even if I have to pull off the button, I won’t keep you waiting long."

She wore a standardized professional smile, her eyebrows curving, though the smile didn’t reach her eyes.

Tang Yuxiu’s eyes deepened, "It better be so."

Gu Yan, smiling throughout, looked at him, uncertain whether it was because he angered her or she had elevated her endurance to a new level, her hands, previously trembling like drizzle, were now exceedingly steady.

Miss Gu probably possessed this kind of excellent quality of growing stronger when facing strength.

Yet, Tang Yuxiu sneered inwardly, realizing it was all an act.

Gu Yan quickly removed her shirt, leaving only a bra to cover her body, a pink bra that made her skin appear white with a hint of redness, very alluring.

Her figure was well-proportioned without the shirt, not as skinny as she appeared while wearing clothes, with all the right curves in place.

There was no excess fat on her waist; instead, it looked very toned, a good figure she had maintained through years of hard work and exercise.

Tang Yuxiu’s gaze suddenly darkened as he looked at her skin, seeming as if water could drip off in the light, making an accursed reaction!

Gu Yan only felt her upper body was both cold and hot. The decisiveness she had barely ignited was slowly fading away.

She reached behind to touch the clasp of her bra, her heart trembling, hesitating whether to undo it.

Without taking the final step, she still had room to regret, but if she chose to stop and leave now, Gu’s father’s medical expenses would never have a chance to be raised again!

Thinking of Gu’s father’s frail appearance in the hospital and his protection of her when he awoke, Gu Yan’s heart felt sore.

Gu’s father was a good man; she couldn’t just stand by and watch him lying seriously ill in the hospital without doing anything!

This was the only opportunity to save him, she... couldn’t give up!

What was it to stake her entire life on it? Although she said that to Mrs. Gu, that she could survive without them, she was still grateful to them. Without them, there might not be the Gu Yan of today.

She never considered hypothetical questions, and this matter was no exception.

She was adopted by the Gu Family, and Gu’s father’s kindness to her was genuine, so as a daughter, what she could do for her father was to ensure his peace and health.
