Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me

Chapter 1744: Wanting to Take Her Away from Yue Siqing (3)



"Mr. Yue is overthinking." Huo Xun said leisurely, "As I mentioned, I just want to make a few more friends. Miss Gu is one of them. After all, we’re compatriots, so we have a bit more to talk about. I heard that Mr. Yue is her brother, and this protective mindset is something I can understand."

"Stay away from her." The four words were devoid of warmth, the commanding tone as cold and ironclad as ever.

Huo Xun smirked slightly but said nothing.

Just then, Gu Anjin turned her head and walked over.

"Brother Siqing, why are you here?" She looked at him with wide eyes, surprised. "Why didn’t I hear you were coming?"

Yue Siqing glanced at her indifferently, "After I finished my business, Arthur mentioned you were here, so I came to pick you up."

Gu Anjin was taken aback, "I see."

Arthur really tells him everything.

It seems that if I want to investigate something in the future, I can’t go through Arthur.

"What?" He noticed the hint of gloom on Gu Anjin’s face.

"Nothing." Gu Anjin smiled again, "I was just a bit surprised. You never... cared for me this meticulously before."

Huo Xun lazily stood to the side, "Miss Gu, I think your brother really cares a lot about your personal life. I’m truly envious of you."

"Envious of me?"

"I wish I had an older brother too." Huo Xun grinned, glancing briefly at Yue Siqing before casually saying to Gu Anjin, "Don’t laugh at me; I’m just a bit sentimental. I used to have an older brother too, so now, seeing someone grow up under their brother’s protection, I’m genuinely envious."

Gu Anjin wasn’t sure if his words were true or not and asked casually, "Since you had an older brother, why envy others?"

As soon as she asked, she remembered Huo Xun said it was in the past.

"Because he died." The smile on his lips didn’t change, and he said it lightly, "So, it’s a bit of a pity. Does Mr. Yue only have this one sister? No other siblings?"

The atmosphere was suddenly oppressed by Yue Siqing’s intense presence.

A suffocating tension filled the air.

He fixed his cold gaze on Huo Xun, yet Huo Xun seemed to treat it as a joke.

He didn’t even look at him, just chatted easily with Gu Anjin like an ordinary friend.

"You’re mistaken." Gu Anjin rolled her eyes, "Mr. Murphy, he’s not my real brother. My real brother is Gu Annan. Yue Siqing and I aren’t even sworn siblings. We’ve just known each other for a long time, and I think of him as a brother. But in reality, we’re just friends."

"Sorry, I see." Huo Xun shrugged indifferently, "It’s my misunderstanding. I know you’re Gu Annan’s sister; I just assumed Mr. Yue also had some connection with the Gu Family. Actually, I wasn’t asking about biological siblings."

Gu Anjin explained, "No, we’re just friends."

"I’m not particularly familiar with Mr. Yue’s background, so please excuse my ignorance." Huo Xun said helplessly, "I just know he has close ties with the Gu Family."

Yue Siqing gazed at him coldly, a chilling voice speaking, "Not many people know I’m close with the Gu Family."

Huo Xun merely said casually, "I meant, Mr. Yue, you have a close relationship with Miss Gu."

"Alright, Brother Siqing." Gu Anjin thought his expression was frighteningly cold and quickly said, "Let’s head back first."

She didn’t want Yue Siqing to harbor any hostility towards Huo Xun at this moment, nor did she want to give him time to learn that Song Yi was here.
