My Sweet and Charming Wife

C135 – Jiang Yan Had His Eyes on Gu Yuehuan

A whistle escaped his lips, and he playfully called to the lady boss, “Hey there, lovely lady boss! I’ll take a portion of everything you’ve got on the menu.”

As Gu Yuehuan heard that voice and was about to turn around, she caught sight of the disheveled man slouched in his seat, peering at her with a toothpick dangling from his mouth. The lecherous glint in his eyes was truly repulsive.

Seeing this man, she was taken aback, as he was unmistakably Jiang Yan from the neighboring village.

It was the same Jiang Yan who, the last time, Gu Yuewei had falsely accused her of having an affair with. She hadn’t expected him to show up here for a meal. His presence made her feel slightly uneasy.

Jiang Yan’s gaze bore into her. He inherently exuded a lascivious aura, and whenever he spotted an attractive girl on the street, he couldn’t help but sneak a few glances. Now, confronted with such a striking lady boss, his eyes were practically glued to her.

His primary reason for coming here was that a few of his acquaintances were having a meal at this place. Gu Yuehuan had attracted everyone’s attention with her stunning presence.

The companion seated beside Jiang Yan leaned in and quipped, “You don’t need to bother. Let me inform you: the gorgeous lady boss has been married for quite some time. She already has a husband. Even if you want to pursue her, it’s a lost cause. Just drop it.”

Jiang Yan found this quite amusing but kept his amusement to himself.

So what if she was married? Whether she was married or not didn’t carry much weight when it came to pursuing a woman.

“But who exactly is this lady boss? When did she surface? I’ve been around this area for a while now, yet I haven’t come across this Lady Boss. I had no idea that such a beautiful woman was nearby! Had I known about her beauty earlier, I’d have made a move long ago. How did it end up that she’s the one getting married and having a husband now!?”

The moment Jiang Yan mentioned this, his brothers burst into laughter. One of them slapped his shoulder and remarked, “You didn’t recognize her, did you? Well, who would? The one who opened the shop was that chubby lady. But now, she’s lost so much weight. I was skeptical at first too, but I checked it out later. It really was Gu Yuehuan! You know her, don’t you? Your village is practically neighbors with hers. They’re pretty close, you must’ve seen them around!”

Jiang Yan, who was taking a sip of water, was taken aback. He choked on his drink, spraying water out with a puff, and gaped at Gu Yuehuan in disbelief. Then he turned to his brother. “You’re not pulling my leg, are you? You’re saying that woman is the same fat lady? The one from the neighboring village? That can’t be right. She used to be like a chubby pig, and she was so dark. How could she be this fair? And she wasn’t that attractive either!”

Their laughter grew even louder. “We knew you’d react like this. Why would we lie? It really is her. She’s confirmed it many times, and that’s her name. She’s turned more and more beautiful now, and she lost weight too. She’s not bad-looking at all. She’s getting fairer and fairer. A real beauty. People come here just to see her.”

Initially, Jiang Yan assumed she might be from some well-off family, and he wanted to tease her. As he listened, he glanced at Gu Yuehuan, who was busy making snacks. She was over here, so she didn’t hear their conversation. Jiang Yan scratched his chin and looked at the woman.

He realized he had completely missed something great! Back then, he had no idea this woman would turn out to be this stunning. He had even pursued her at some point. At least now, she was the one radiating beauty.

He felt remorse. When Gu Yuewei had expressed interest in pursuing him, he had even scorned the idea!

If he had foreseen the current situation, he wouldn’t have harbored any aversion towards her. He would have pursued her instantly!

With this thought in mind, Jiang Yan couldn’t help but gaze at Gu Yuehuan. He was genuinely curious about what it would feel like to be a wife.

Could he simply announce that they were married?

Perhaps, being married would make things even more thrilling.
