Gu Hai only took Yan Ya Jing with him on this business trip. By the time they got off the plane, the night had already fallen into darkness. When arriving at the hotel after being dropped off by the pick-up personnel, they discovered that they had been arranged to stay in a couples' luxury suite.

One could hardly blame other people for misinterpreting things since no matter where they went, they would always look like an attractive couple. After years of working closely together, this type of misunderstanding had happened countless times. The unspoken rule in upper class society is that, the best marry the best. Even though the engagement banquet had been ruined, in the eyes of outsiders—the possibility of the two getting married was an undebatable truth.

The best way to break a rumour is by turning the rumour into reality. Unfortunately, this equation would never add up for Yan Ya Jing. This simply because Gu Hai's heart was already completely filled by Bai Luo Yin. There was only the tiniest space left to spare, and that he had given to the donkey sitting in his bag.

Yes, he had brought his 'son' to Shenzhen.

Yan Ya Jing felt somewhat speechless every time she saw that donkey.

It was already quite late when they had checked in and unpacked their belongings, so they settled for having their dinner at the hotel.

Sitting across from Gu Hai, Yan Ya Jing had a good view over him and immediately spotted the red mark on his neck. This was the mark left by Bai Luo Yin before Gu Hai left for the business trip.

"Your girlfriend is quite possessive, right?" Yan Ya Jing suddenly asked.

For a moment, Gu Hai looked blankly at her. "Girlfriend?"

Yan Ya Jing pointed at Gu Hai's neck, "Don't tell me the mark on your neck was made by an insect?"

A slight trace of a smile immediately emerged on his face as soon as this topic was mentioned.

Yan Ya Jing snorted, "It seems that it really bothers her[1] that you went on this business trip with me!"

Gu Hai responded indifferently, "I never told him[2] whom I was going with."

"Then she is definitely using this tactic to prevent other women from hitting on you." Yan Ya Jing said with great certainty.

Gu Hai retained a clueless expression.

Seeing the look on Gu Hai's face, Yan Ya Jing helplessly reminded him, "The mark she left on your neck— isn't it to warn the woman who accompanied you on this trip that you are taken?! And that she shouldn't even think about trying anything?"

A light finally dawned on Gu Hai and his heart secretly rejoiced.

So, it turns out, even Bai Luo Yin has these kinds of little thoughts.

Yan Ya Jing was speechless and felt deeply emotional. She couldn't understand how Gu Hai could be so sharp within the business field while being so slow-witted when it came to relationship issues. Back in the days, it was his intelligence that she had admired dearly. She had thought that she didn't need to spell her feelings out to him and that he would be able to understand how she felt. In the end, it turned out that she had been completely wrong. If she had comprehended this earlier and made a move sooner, then perhaps he would not have been snatched away by someone else?
