Chapter Ninety-Six: Xie Changyan: I'm afraid you'll be bullied
Li Yan's excited expression froze, and then her smile vanished.
She withdrew her gaze and stood dejectedly beside Gu Tingyan, like a broken doll in the rain.
Seeing his mother so distressed, Gu Tingyan felt a pang of pain in his heart.
But he couldn't find any words to comfort his wounded mother.
Fortunately, Li Yan stopped making a fuss and stood quietly beside him, acting as a pretty vase.
Her eyes were cold and indifferent, as if she had no desires or wants. She wore a standard fake smile as she watched Gu Tingyan and the others chatting and laughing.
Xie Changyan, who had been observing Li Yan, noticed that Li Yan's mood was off and narrowed his amber eyes.
Xie Changyan finished his glass of red wine, put it on the table, and walked straight toward Li Yan.
He smiled politely, looked at Gu Tingyan, but glanced at Li Yan out of the corner of his eye, and greeted her in a slow and unhurried manner: "President Gu, it's been a long time."
The people surrounding Gu Tingyan, seeing that the owner of Tonight's Goodnight had come looking for someone, tactfully dispersed.
In this area, only the three of them remained.
Gu Tingyan nodded in acknowledgment and said politely, "President Xie, it's been a long time."
Xie Changyan's gaze fell directly on Li Yan, and he bluntly stated, "Miss Li, I have seen you before, more than ten years ago."
Li Yan was stunned for a moment.
I never expected Xie Changyan to be so young, yet he had met me more than ten years ago.
She thought about it for a moment, and realized that it was indeed illogical for her to appear in this timeline with this face.
Therefore, Li Yan smiled and had no choice but to explain, "Many people say that I look exactly like my aunt."
Gu Tingyan also knew that Li Yan could not reveal her identity, otherwise it would cause unnecessary trouble.
“Mr. Xie, she’s my cousin,” Gu Tingyan chimed in.
Xie Changyan glanced at the two of them, smiled, and didn't delve any further: "I see."
Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Xie Changyan was no longer paying attention to her and had turned to talk to Gu Tingyan about cooperation.
Fortunately, her family wasn't a prominent clan, otherwise this reason wouldn't have fooled Xie Changyan, who seemed like a cunning and shrewd smiling tiger.
Before the party ended, Li Yan sat alone in a corner to rest.
Xie Changyan found her, a gentle smile on his face, and walked towards her again: "Miss Li."
He was dressed in a bespoke suit, his face was handsome and dashing, and his every move exuded nobility.
Li Yan looked up and stood up, replying politely, "Thank you, Mr. Xie."
Xie Changyan held a high-end, classy business card between his long, slender fingers and handed it to her in a gentlemanly manner.
He smiled and said, "This is my business card. You can come to me if you have any difficulties."
Li Yan didn't dare to take it immediately, and asked with some wariness and doubt, "Mr. Xie, why are you helping me?"
In her memory, she had never met Xie Changyan and did not understand why he was looking for her for no reason.
Xie Changyan wasn't angry. Instead, he patiently explained, "You look too much like her. I'm afraid you'll be bullied."
Li Yan asked in surprise, "You and she have a deep relationship?"
"He doesn't know me." Xie Changyan stopped there, unwilling to say any more.
Li Yan glanced at him, took the package, understood, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Xie."
She took the business card and walked to Gu Tingyan's side.
But Gu Yujing's figure flashed before her eyes once again.
Li Yan immediately called out the name: "Gu Yujing!"
Xie Changyan looked at Li Yan in shock, and Gu Tingyan also looked at her with a tense expression.
