Chapter 199 - 198: Persistent Harassment
Gu Youyou wanted to avoid him, but it was too late, and he caught her in the act.
"Ah, cousin-in-law, you’re finally back, I’ve been waiting all day for you."
Gu Youyou could scarcely contain her irritation as she regarded him coldly and said, "Didn’t I tell you to go find Jin Zijin? What, couldn’t find him?"
The disdain and impatience in the depths of Gu Youyou’s eyes were unmistakable to him, and a touch of surprise added to his feelings.
With his charming looks, he’d always been a surefire hit with women. He was accustomed to seeing admiration, shyness, and greedy affection in their eyes, but never had he seen someone like Gu Youyou, who seemed to treat him as nothing but a huge nuisance, avoiding him at all costs.
She truly was no ordinary person, definitely not a village woman!
His face bore a suitably pleasant smile as he leapt down from the wall with a graceful, almost celestial posture.
He came to a stop in front of Gu Youyou, and mustered all his charm to make his voice sound more appealing as he said, "Cousin has only a straw hut to offer, no place for me to sleep. Your big tiled house is much better, with three rooms even. Me staying in one shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
The extent of his devilish charm was extraordinary. Gu Youyou steadied herself and replied with a cold snort, "Didn’t he tell you that he and I have no relationship anymore? So save that cousin-in-law title for someone else—I can’t accept it."
