Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

Bo Yusen's expression was even more unpleasant than before.

His brows were furrowed, and a cold, fierce aura emanated from his eyes, causing the temperature around him to drop several degrees.

Just when Si Yuan thought he would kill her in a fit of rage, Bo Yusen suddenly stood up and stopped looking at her.

"go out."

Si Yuan pursed her lips, struggled to her feet, and stumbled out of the room.

It wasn't until she got back to her room a while later that she realized she hadn't taken the doll out.

She rubbed her forehead in frustration, feeling a tightness and discomfort in her chest.

My phone suddenly rang; it was a WeChat message from Gu Yinhe.

[Ah Yuan, where did you go? Why didn't you come to see the fireworks?]

Si Yuan sighed softly and replied to the message.

I've already watched the fireworks, but I'm a little tired, so I'm going back to my room to rest.

Gu Yinhe: [Your stamina is terrible. You need to train more properly another day.]

Si Yuan: [Yes, happy birthday again, Your Highness.]

Gu Yinhe: 【(*￣3)(ε￣*)】

After putting down her phone, Si Yuan took a shower. Outside, it was bustling with activity; it was another sleepless night.

She took the medicine bottle out of her bag and found that it was empty.

Left with no other choice, she made a phone call to Jiang Yingxue.

"Dr. Jiang, I'm out of sleeping pills. Could you please prescribe some more for me?"

Jiang Yingxue: "I prescribed you a two-month supply, and you finished it in less than a month?"

Because of frequent use of sleeping pills, Si Yuan's body has developed a tolerance to them, and one pill is no longer effective.

Jiang Yingxue's tone was quite serious, "A-Yuan, you can't go on like this. Putting aside everything else, your health will definitely collapse. How about this... come here and we'll develop a systematic treatment plan."

Si Yuan thought Jiang Yingxue was making a mountain out of a molehill, and smiled slightly, "I just can't sleep, there's nothing else wrong."

"Not being able to sleep is the biggest problem, A-Yuan, you can't ignore it and avoid seeking medical help."

Knowing that Jiang Yingxue was concerned about her, Si Yuan agreed, "Okay... I'll definitely come to see you whenever I have time..."

Jiang Yingxue on the other end of the phone looked worried; Si Yuan's condition seemed to be more serious than before.

She could clearly hear the perfunctory tone in Si Yuan's voice. She said she would come when she had time, but when she would be available was entirely up to Si Yuan.

This can't go on.

Jiang Yingxue hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to call Bo Yusen.

Bo Yusen held the doll in his hand, his face showing no expression after listening to Jiang Yingxue's words.

But he squeezed the doll so hard that it deformed.

It seems that we need to increase the intensity.

On the deck at this moment.

Everyone happily took photos and videos, and Gu Yinhe even sang a song for everyone when the fireworks went off.

Yu Muchen stood unnoticed in the shadows, a cigarette between his fingers, his gaze fixed on Gu Yinhe, who was exuding youthful energy and laughter on the stage.

Fireworks burst behind her, but she was more beautiful than the fireworks.

"I really envy Yinhe. She seems to never know what worries are and is always so happy and cheerful."

An envious voice rang out from beside him. Yu Muchen withdrew his gaze from Gu Yinhe and looked indifferently at Gu Mingyue.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"She's a good person... but seeing her makes me uncomfortable..."

Yu Muchen's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly, then he smiled nonchalantly, "I've heard that the two sisters of the Gu family are very close, but judging from what Miss Gu said, it doesn't seem to be the case..."

Gu Mingyue looked at Gu Yinhe with a sullen expression, "That's because you don't know how biased my parents are..."

Gu Mingyue didn't understand why, even though her grades were better than Gu Yinhe's when they were young, her parents only praised Gu Yinhe and never her.

When she entered university, she wanted to study business administration, but her parents interfered again and made her choose media, while Gu Yinhe ended up studying business administration.

If Gu Yinhe achieves a small goal, they will reward her with a car or a villa.

Over the years, she has done so many things that have brought honor to the Gu family, yet the car and house her parents gave her are far less valuable than Gu Yinhe's.

And this time, for Gu Yinhe's birthday, her parents bought her a yacht—

Such favoritism made Gu Mingyue unable to help but feel jealous of Gu Yinhe.

In addition, Gu Yinhe's constant efforts to help Si Yuan snatch Bo Yusen have made Gu Mingyue resent Gu Yinhe even more.

Yu Muchen smiled indifferently, "Sorry, I'm not interested in other people's family affairs."

Gu Mingyue laughed, "I knew President Yu was ruthless, but this is the first time I've known you were such a good liar."

Gu Mingyue looked at Yu Muchen, "Whether you're interested in the Gu family or not is another matter, but your interest in Yinhe is quite significant..."

After a pause, Gu Mingyue continued, "You think you're hiding your true intentions well, but the way you look at Yinhe might fool others, but it won't fool me..."

"Oh?" Yu Muchen chuckled. "How come I have no idea what kind of look I gave Miss Gu?"

Gu Mingyue's smile widened. "You want to get her."

Gu Mingyue looked at Gu Yinhe, who had an innocent and naive expression, "But you also know what's between you two, so you don't dare to make any rash moves, for fear that you might not even be able to maintain your current relationship."

Yu Muchen's expression gradually faded.

Gu Mingyue smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell President Yu that you like Yinhe without her permission."

Yu Muchen only met Bo Yusen and Jiang Zhe later, and his relationship with Gu Mingyue was only that of nodding acquaintances.

Yu Muchen no longer denied liking Gu Yinhe. He stubbed out his cigarette, his eyes turning cold.

"I don't like beating around the bush. Miss Gu, please just say what you have to say."

Gu Mingyue's expression also turned serious. "President Yu should know very well that if things continue like this, you'll never get Galaxy..."

"Your only chance to win over the galaxy now is to pull her down from her pedestal."

"My younger sister has always loved strange and unusual things. With so many tricks up your sleeve, Mr. Yu, I probably don't need to teach you how to do them all, right?"

"Tsk—"

Yu Muchen chuckled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. "I understand now. Miss Gu is afraid that Gu Yinhe will compete with you for the inheritance of the Gu Group, so she wants to use me to deal with her."

Gu Mingyue did not deny it. "The word 'deal with' is too harsh. My desire to cooperate with President Yu is simply a matter of mutual benefit."

When Gu Yinhe saw Gu Mingyue, she smiled and called out to her, "Sister, come and sing."

Gu Mingyue smiled indulgently at Gu Yinhe, "You sing, I'll listen..."

Then, she turned to look at Yu Muchen, "What did President Yu say?"

Yu Muchen looked at the bouncy Gu Yinhe and smiled, "It's a pity there's no wine here, otherwise I would definitely have a drink with Miss Gu."

Gu Mingyue extended her hand to Yu Muchen, "Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation."

Yu Muchen touched Gu Mingyue's hand. "It's a pleasure working with you."

The two acted as if nothing had happened, continuing to watch the fireworks bloom across the sky.

The beautiful fireworks shone on their faces, and their expressions were terrifying, enough to frighten even a child to tears.

After the birthday party, everyone returned to their normal lives.

Si Yuan also began her busy life.

Si Yuan also heard about Lu Xiao from Gu Yinhe.

I heard that Lu Xiao went to Jiang Zhe's room that night and drank all night long, crying until he almost had no tears left.

Gu Yinhe learned about Lu Xiao's confession to Si Yuan and also knew the outcome.

Si Yuan's rejection of Lu Xiao indicates that she doesn't like him, and Gu Yinhe won't take it upon herself to bring the two together again.

It's a bit of a pity, though, because she thought A Yuan and Lu Xiao were quite a good match.

Gu Yinhe put her arm around Si Yuan's shoulder and laughed, "It's okay, there are plenty of men. We'll just find one we like."

Si Yuan's feelings were extremely complicated. "Mmm."

Compared to Si Yuan, Si Aofu has been in a much better mood these past few days, and her complexion and spirits have improved considerably.

It's obvious that she gets along very well with Xie Zhizhou.

This gave Si Yuan some comfort.

The Bo family at this time.

Ji Yuting had the maid prepare a large table of dishes that Bo Yusen loved to eat.

The mother and son ate in silence.

When they were almost finished eating, Ji Yuting wiped her mouth and looked at Bo Yusen. "Yusen, I ran into Ziyu a few days ago. She asked about the marriage between our two families. If you think it's too early to get married, you can get engaged first."

Bo Yusen calmly put down his chopsticks. "Is this the ultimate reason you called me back for dinner today?"

Ji Yuting frowned. "I'm also worried about your important life event."

"Engagement is out of the question; if we're going to have a marriage alliance, let's just get married."

Ji Yuting was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected her son to be so easy to talk to.

Weren't you quite opposed to arranged marriages between the two families a while ago? Why do you suddenly want to get married again?

It seems he was hurt quite badly by Si Yuan, and now he knows who is the woman most suitable for him and loves him the most.

"Marriage is a good idea... I consulted a fortune teller beforehand, and there's an auspicious date next month. A month is enough time to prepare for the wedding. What do you think?"

Bo Yusen looked up at Ji Yuting and said, "I'm fine with it, but I don't know if Uncle Gu and Aunt Ziyu will be willing to marry their little princess to me so soon."

Ji Yuting's smile gradually froze. "Little princess? You mean the Milky Way?"

Bo Yusen smiled slightly, "Otherwise what?"

Ji Yuting's face darkened. "Nonsense! Wasn't the marriage between the Bo and Gu families supposed to be between you and Mingyue? How did it become Yinhe?"

"The person I like is Gu Yinhe. She's lively, enthusiastic, kind, and innocent. Isn't it normal to be attracted to her?"

Ji Yuting was completely devastated. No wonder Yu Sen didn't take any action after the news of the marriage between the Bo and Gu families broke.

It turns out he wanted to marry Gu Yinhe.

Gu Yinhe is good, and Ji Yuting likes her quite a bit.

In Ji Yuting's eyes, Gu Yinhe was just an immature kid who hadn't grown up. How could someone like that be a daughter-in-law of the Bo family?

There was only one daughter-in-law she valued, and that was Gu Mingyue.

"That bright moon..."

"Gu Mingyue is just my friend, and I have no romantic feelings for her whatsoever."

Bo Yusen slowly stood up. "If we're going to have a marriage alliance, it should be between me and Gu Yinhe. Otherwise—cancel the marriage alliance."
