Chapter 1082: Chapter 1086 I Just Want Him Chapter 1082: Chapter 1086 I Just Want Him “Ah,” Yian Jingxue sighed gloomily, “I asked him out tonight, but he said he didn’t have time. I can’t tell if he genuinely didn’t have time or if he just wasn’t interested in me and was rejecting me politely.”

Ye Xingbei: “…You just split with him at noon, and now you’re asking him out again in the evening, girl, you’re being a bit too eager!”

“That’s right, I should be eager! How can I not be? Every woman wants a good man, and if I don’t move quickly, what if someone else gets there first? Plus, look at you, you’re already with your husband, flying in twos, while I’m still alone. Of course, I’m in a hurry!” Yian Jingxue shook her head with a sigh. “Beibei, this is what they mean when they say a full man does not understand the hunger of an empty one. You, with a husband, don’t know how urgent it is for us without one!”

Ye Xingbei snorted with laughter at her joke, “I give up on you. No matter if it’s logical or not, you can weave things into a long string.”

Yian Jingxue’s face was serious: “I’m serious!”

“Alright, alright, you’re serious,” Ye Xingbei nodded with a smile. “Tomorrow night, both Gu Junzhu and I should be free. We can try to arrange a meeting for you. But if he truly isn’t willing, we can’t force him. And you, as we’ve discussed before, shouldn’t hang all your hopes on one possibility. Gu Junzhu has many single friends who are excellent. There’s bound to be one that suits you.”

“No need for that, I’m a very faithful person!” Yian Jingxue waved her hand and said, “I think my Brother Zuo is the best. I just want him, that will do.”

Ye Xingbei: “…Silly girl.”

You just want him, but do you have any idea if he wants you?

Ye Xingbei regretted not considering more carefully before introducing Han Zuo to Yian Jingxue’s attention.

“Don’t worry,” Yian Jingxue said playfully, “I remember what you told me the other day. You have to make an effort to see a return. Since I was the one who fell for him first, I need to show my sincerity and make a concerted effort for a while. I can’t just switch targets the moment I find Brother Zuo a bit difficult to pursue. That would make me seem too fickle. How could I then claim to truly like him?”

Ye Xingbei thought for a moment, then nodded. “Okay, you have a point. I’ll ask Gu Junzhu to arrange a meeting tomorrow. If he agrees, I’ll let you know.”

“Thank you,” Yian Jingxue joyfully gave Ye Xingbei an “OK” sign. “It’s getting late. You should rest early. See you tomorrow.”

Yian Jingxue blew her a kiss, and they ended the video call.

After blow-drying her hair, Ye Xingbei left the bathroom. Gu Junzhu had already finished showering and was standing at the end of the bed, looking at the wall opposite.

“Done with your busy work? What are you looking at?” Ye Xingbei asked while following his gaze.

She didn’t need Gu Junzhu to answer to know what he was staring at.

She had gone straight to the bathroom to shower when she returned to the bedroom and hadn’t noticed that the calligraphy she had written was already framed and hanging on the wall.

Ye Xingbei felt a warmth inside her, and her cheeks flushed with a somewhat embarrassed feeling.

Her calligraphy, though imposing at first glance, would reveal her as a novice to any connoisseur.

In the Gu Family’s large residence, every calligraphy and painting hanging anywhere was an authentic masterpiece of immense value. The inclusion of her amateur work was utterly incongruous.

Gu Junzhu stretched out his hand to draw her into his embrace and smilingly looked at her: “Do you like it?”

Ye Xingbei was a bit bashful but still nodded, “I like it.”

“I like it very much, too,” Gu Junzhu ruffled her hair. “I heard voices from the bathroom just now. Who were you talking to? Yian Jingxue or Yue Yaer?”
