Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Yan Luoxi: One baby is not enough, it’s best to have two

Soon after,

Yan Luoxi also arrived in the parking garage, taking the elevator reserved for the president.

Gu Yizhou smiled and put down his phone when he saw her.

Today, Yan Luoxi was wearing a turtleneck sweater under a wool coat, with a pair of solid black, high boots. Her long hair was draped casually over her shoulders, giving her an air of cold, intellectual beauty.

Gu Yizhou couldn’t help but look at her a few more times.

Honestly,

Yan Luoxi was truly beautiful.

Among all the women he knew, she was number one.

Yan Luoxi walked over and naturally slid into the passenger seat. "Let’s just take one car today."

Gu Yizhou nodded. "Alright."

After she had buckled her seatbelt, he started the car.

"VROOOM~!!"

Amidst the roar of the engine, the car sped out of the underground parking garage.

「Over half an hour later.」

The two of them drove to a small whole-grain fish noodle soup shop called "Aiyu."

Gu Yizhou had discovered this shop by chance and, after finding that he liked the food, would come by to eat every so often.

However, because it was in a rather remote location, it usually didn’t have many customers.

This was another reason Gu Yizhou liked coming here. It was quiet.

「Ten minutes later.」

They pulled up to the shop’s entrance.

Just as Gu Yizhou was about to get out, Yan Luoxi suddenly stopped him. "Wait."

Gu Yizhou was confused. "What’s wrong?"

Yan Luoxi didn’t say anything. Instead, she got out, walked around to Gu Yizhou’s side, and said, "Let me try parking."

Gu Yizhou didn’t protest, simply nodding and getting out to swap seats with her.

He couldn’t help but smile.

Hah.

’So competitive!’

While Gu Yizhou was lost in thought,

Yan Luoxi had already reversed the car halfway into the spot—and it was crooked.

Her expression a little unnatural, she called out to him, "You... can you check the side for me..."

Her voice snapped Gu Yizhou back to his senses.

He took one look.

Good grief.

’As expected of you!’

’To mess up such a standard parking spot this badly.’

He shook his head helplessly.

Yan Luoxi naturally saw the expression on Gu Yizhou’s face, and the blush on her cheeks deepened.

From childhood to university, she had always been a fast learner.

But reversing a car was something she just couldn’t master.

Well... it wasn’t that she *couldn’t* learn, it was just that she was always bad at it. Parking the car always took a very long time.

With Gu Yizhou giving directions, it was much easier for Yan Luoxi to finish parking.

「Two and a half minutes later.」

Yan Luoxi finally parked the car and walked over to Gu Yizhou’s side.

Gu Yizhou didn’t say much about it. He just smiled and said, "Let’s go. Time for some whole-grain fish noodle soup."

Yan Luoxi nodded and walked into the shop with Gu Yizhou.

There was almost no one inside.

The two of them casually found a table and sat down.

Then, they started to order.

The shop offered many different flavors of whole-grain fish noodle soup.

Gu Yizhou and Yan Luoxi each ordered a different flavor.

While they were waiting,

Gu Yizhou noticed that Yan Luoxi kept stealing glances at him.

He couldn’t help but ask, "What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Yan Luoxi’s pretty face blushed slightly as she shook her head. "No, I was just looking."

"Fine by me."

Gu Yizhou said with a smile, "Go ahead and look. It’s free."

"WHOOSH."

Hearing this, Yan Luoxi’s face turned an even deeper shade of red.

’What does this damn man mean by that?’

’Could it be... he really knows I like him?’

’Or is he just joking around like friends do?’

For a moment, all sorts of thoughts raced through Yan Luoxi’s mind.

Just then,

Yan Luoxi’s bowl of fish noodle soup was ready and brought to the table.

Gu Yizhou’s was not ready yet.

Seeing this, Yan Luoxi decided to wait for Gu Yizhou so they could eat together.

When Gu Yizhou saw she hadn’t picked up her chopsticks, he said, "This noodle soup is best right after it’s cooked. Go ahead and eat, President Yan."

"Mm-hmm."

Yan Luoxi nodded, picked up her chopsticks, and began to eat in small bites.

Gu Yizhou, meanwhile, picked up his phone and scrolled through the news about the Button Wine Company’s implosion.

Financial fraud, internal scandals...

’It’s exactly as the system’s future tips predicted.’

’At this rate, the company is most likely doomed!’

’But none of that has anything to do with me.’

’The worse things got for the Button Wine Company, the more money I’d make.’

Gu Yizhou shook his head.

As Yan Luoxi slurped her noodles, she would glance at Gu Yizhou from time to time.

She realized that just having Gu Yizhou by her side made her happy.

Even if they did nothing at all, just sitting there like this, she felt a sense of contentment in her heart.

Soon,

the owner finished making Gu Yizhou’s fish noodle soup and brought it over.

He put down his phone, picked up his chopsticks, and began to slurp his noodles.

Neither of them spoke. The only sound was the quiet rustling and slurping of the shop’s customers eating their noodles.

Staring at Gu Yizhou’s side profile, Yan Luoxi suddenly couldn’t stop herself from asking, "Gu Yizhou, have you ever thought about what you want your life to be like in the future?"

Hearing this, Gu Yizhou froze for a moment.

He frowned slightly, first looking up at Yan Luoxi, then asked with some confusion, "President Yan, why the sudden question?"

Seeing his reaction, Yan Luoxi grew a little nervous. "What’s wrong? You don’t want to tell me?"

Seeing her nervousness, Gu Yizhou smiled. "It’s not that. I was just a little surprised. But I have actually thought about my future."

Yan Luoxi’s eyes lit up. "Really? Then... then tell me, what do you imagine your future life will be like?"

"Uh..."

Gu Yizhou looked at Yan Luoxi’s expectant face, smiled, and said, "The future... In the future, I imagine it will be much like it is now. I’ll commute to work every day, have my own house, my own car, my own family."

"Maybe have a cute kid, maybe get a dog."

"On weekends, the family can go out together, take a walk in the park, or go see a movie."

"During holidays, we could travel and see the world."

"Yeah... I think a life like that would be pretty great."

After hearing Gu Yizhou’s words, Yan Luoxi’s beautiful eyes sparkled.

She was already picturing herself in the scene Gu Yizhou described...

’A life like that really would be wonderful.’

’And everything he mentioned was what she wanted, too.’

’How amazing would it be to have a life like that with Gu Yizhou!’

’But! One baby doesn’t seem like enough. Two would be better, so they won’t be lonely.’

Yan Luoxi couldn’t help but think to herself.

At the same time,

she silently made a decision.

’I’m going to find a chance to confess to Gu Yizhou as soon as possible!’

’I don’t want to wait any longer!’

’Because!’

’I don’t want to lose this man!’

Seeing Yan Luoxi’s pensive expression, Gu Yizhou suddenly asked, "President Yan, is there a reason you suddenly asked about this? Is something troubling you?"
