“Second Brother, what do you mean by saying Gu Fei picked up a little white rabbit on the road?” An Nanyi turned and sat down on the sofa in the living room. His earlier sleepiness had disappeared, replaced by a look of curiosity.

An Yu sat down next to him, took an apple from the fruit plate, took a bite of the crunchy apple, and said vaguely while eating, “I just picked someone, he’s a really good-looking boy, um… …looks about the same age as you.”

“You wouldn’t believe it, but Gu Fei is like a completely different person. You can’t imagine how kind he was to the little white rabbit. With that cold face, he proactively strikes up a conversation with people. Seeing that the little white rabbit is hungry, he invites him to eat, he also thoughtfully served food …”

“tsk-tsk” An Yu clicked his tongue lightly and marveled, “Who wouldn’t be shocked by this!”

An Nanyi beside him was a little silent. He lowered his eyes slightly to cover up his strange emotions. His delicate face tightened slightly. After a while, he said: “Second brother, are you sure what you said is true??”

His second brother always liked to exaggerate.

An Nanyi didn’t quite believe it, because he knew very well what kind of person Gu Fei was. This man had a cold and indifferent attitude towards everyone, even including his friends.

The Gu family and the An family have a good relationship. Their mothers have been best friends for many years. An Nanyi’s eldest brother An Jing and second brother An Yu grew up together with Gu Fei, so their relationship is much better.

Because of this relationship, An Nanyi had opportunities to interact with Gu Fei from time to time. Who wouldn’t want to befriend the CEO of Gu Corporation? Moreover, Gu Fei was remarkably young and handsome, making him a highly sought-after target.

He doesn’t know how many people miss would this sweet pastry…….

An Nanyi had pondered this matter deeply. He had made numerous attempts to approach Gu Fei and befriend him.

But no matter how earnestly he tried, the man’s demeanor remained icy and distant, seemingly pushing others away with great force.

What was comforting being that Gu Fei’s attitude towards everyone is the same, not just towards him. Whether it was a man or a woman, he had never witnessed Gu Fei treating anyone in a special manner.

Anyone who attempts to get close to him ends up with no good results.

It was rumored that he was cold and aloof.

Now, there appeared to be a special exception?

An Nanyi was reluctant to believe it.

Why?

“Second brother can still lie to you?” An Yu didn’t know the twists and turns in his younger brother’s mind. What he said just now was what he saw with his own eyes, and he was absolutely not exaggerating.

“Wait a moment. I took a picture of him just now.” The little white rabbit’s reaction had been quite intense when he took the photo, and Gu Fei had asked him to delete it afterward. However, An Yu had managed to recover it from the recycle bin.

An Yu restored the photo from the recycle bin.

“Speaking of which, this little white rabbit looks a bit like my eldest brother and me, and also looks like our mother. If someone didn’t know, they might think he’s Mom’s long-lost brother.”

“Second brother, what are you talking about?”

An Nanyi didn’t care about An Yu’s words until An Yu handed the phone to him. When he saw the smiling boy on the screen, his pupils shrank suddenly and what he wanted to say got stuck in his throat.

It was a long-lost but familiar face. Even though it was just a candid photo taken from a bad angle, the young man on the screen still looked handsome and radiant, and the smile in his eyes dazzling.

Most importantly, the face still carried a touch of youthful innocence and strongly resembled the An family.

An Nanyi stared at the screen, his breath gradually becoming heavier. He clenched his fists unconsciously, nails digging into the flesh of his palms, yet he seemed not to feel anything.

Why did it have to be Lin Qingyan? Why him!

An Yu looked at him a little strangely, “What’s wrong?”

Annan’s face showed a little surprise, and his tone of voice was also filled with surprise: “Second brother, he is my classmate in high school, his name is Lin Qingyan, I really didn’t expect it…”

An Yu sighed lightly, “What a coincidence.”

“Yeah, what a coincidence.” An Nanyi sighed agreeing, stood up after speaking, and couldn’t help covering her mouth and yawning, “Second brother, I’ll tell you tomorrow, I’m so sleepy to go to sleep first, you also go to bed early.”

Yawning is contagious. An Yu also yawned, “”You’re making me sleepy too. Go to sleep.”

“Good night, second brother.”

After saying goodnight, An Nanyi turned and headed upstairs. His footsteps were hurried, and when he closed his bedroom door, his sleepiness had disappeared completely. In its place was a profound darkness in his eyes, along with a mixture of anger, jealousy, frustration, and panic.

His breathing grew heavier, and in a fit of irrationality, he swept all the items on the bedside table to the ground.

Why did it have to be Lin Qingyan? Why him?

Why?

——

In the dead of night, there is no noise of cars or people in this high-end villa area. he greenery here was well-maintained, and even now, in the summer, you could hear the cicadas, making it very peaceful.

Unlike where Lin Qingyan lived before, his home was in the old town of Nancheng. He lived in a very dilapidated old house where it was noisy at night.

There were not only car noises but also the cries of cats and dogs, the sounds of neighbors talking loudly or arguing, and even the cries of children. It was hard to find peace even in the middle of the night.

An orange desk lamp was lit by the bedside. Lin Qingyan couldn’t sleep, so he took out his phone, opened the browser, and typed “Gu Fei” into the search bar.

The screen displayed a picture of the man, his handsome face was expressionless, even more aloof than in person. Along with the photo came his exclusive biographical information.

Gu Fei, CEO of Gu Corporation, 27 years old, studied in M country at the age of 16, graduated with a master’s degree from M country’s top institution at the age of 20… Lin Qingyan’s mouth twitched, feeling somewhat defeated.

This man is not only handsome and rich, but also a super academic.

This information are the most basic personal experiences, and there is nothing more in-depth information available. Gu Fei is a low-key and self-sufficient person. He rarely accepts interviews from the media and not even a single piece of gossip or scandal could be found.

Oh… but there was one.

Lin Qingyan looked at those eye-catching headlines:
Shocking! Gu Corporation’s CEO, Gu Fei, Single for 27 Years, Suspected of Being Cold-Hearted!
Shocking! A Certain Actress Named Liu Breaks into Mr. Gu’s Hotel Room in the Middle of the Night, Gets Heartlessly Thrown Out in Less than Three Minutes!

Lin Qingyan: “…”

The Next morning.

Lin Qingyan took over the cell phone that kept ringing beside the bed, frowned and turned off the alarm, and lay down for a while before sitting up in a daze, without even fully opening his eyes.

Living in someone else’s home, he couldn’t afford to oversleep, so he had set an alarm for 7:00 in the morning. However, it was already 7:30, and he had only managed to fall asleep after 5:00 in the morning, getting just two hours of sleep.

Insomnia again.

His insomnia symptoms from his previous life had not improved with his rebirth. Whenever he closed his eyes, unpleasant sounds and images involuntarily filled his mind. Sometimes, even his dreams were affected.

He hadn’t had a peaceful night’s sleep in a long time.
