Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 458 Wanyu's Thoughts

Upon hearing Yu Mo's question, 3603 fell into a deathly silence.

As time ticked by, Yu Mo began to wonder if she had asked a question she shouldn't have.

Nanfeng suddenly turned to look at Yumo: "If I tell you about this, will you keep it a secret for me?"

"certainly."

Without hesitation, Yu Mo replied, "I'm very tight-lipped."

"Alright, I'll tell you then, anyway..."

Nanfeng swallowed the words "You should have known sooner or later," and exhaled a breath of stale air, saying, "Aunt Gu... I should actually call her Mom."

Yu Mo raised an eyebrow in surprise and tentatively asked, "Stepmother?"

"My own mother."

"illegitimate child?"

"Child born in wedlock".

"She remarried?"

"no."

Yu Mo was completely dumbfounded: "If that's the case, then why did you call her Aunt Gu?"

Nanfeng thought for a moment and replied, "Because my presence might cause her some trouble."

"what?"

Yu Mo couldn't understand what Nan Feng was saying, and she couldn't even decipher the meaning behind Nan Feng's complex expression at this moment.

Yifei couldn't stand it anymore: "Nanfeng, if you want to keep it a secret, then keep it a secret. If you want to be honest, then tell people clearly. Don't dawdle like Zeng Xiaoxian."

Nanfeng was a little annoyed, and even her tone became a bit harsher: "I know, I just haven't figured out how to say it yet..."

Just then, the door of the guest room, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened.

Having changed her clothes and put on light makeup, Gu Lan slowly walked out of the room: "What's wrong? Is it hard to talk about the fact that your mother is Gu Xizhou?"

"Gu Xizhou?"

Yu Mo exclaimed, "That Grand Slam Best Actress? The boss of Gu's Entertainment?"

Yifei gently patted Yumo's hand: "Now you know why I asked you to keep it a secret."

Yu Mo nodded blankly; this news was truly too shocking for her.

Yu Mo had always known that Nan Feng came from a well-off family, but no matter how hard she tried, she never imagined that Nan Feng would actually be the son of a big star.

Even before today, she thought Nanfeng's parents were long gone.

Yu Mo looked at Nan Feng with a hint of heartache in her eyes: "Now I understand why Nan Feng calls her Aunt Gu."

Although she doesn't follow celebrities, she has heard of the name Gu Xizhou before.

After all, Ms. Gu is one of the few classic inspirational cases of someone who went from being an actress to becoming a boss, not to mention that she is Youyou's idol.

It was from Youyou's mouth that Yumo heard Gu Xizhou's other nicknames besides "Grand Slam Best Actress".

[Iron Woman of the Entertainment Industry], [Desperate Saburo], [Iron Lady], etc...

With a mother who is so busy with her career, it's quite normal that they aren't very close.

While Yu Mo was still processing the shock of this bombshell, Gu Lan had already sat down next to Nan Feng.

She looked at Nanfeng very seriously and said, "I can guarantee that your existence is not a problem for your aunt, but it would be a very troublesome thing if your identity were to be made public."

"This will not only affect your life, but it will also disturb the old man and his great-grandfather."

Gu Lan paused for a moment, then continued, "Moreover, someone might dig up my uncle's entire life story and turn it into news, which is something none of us want to see."

Nanfeng nodded understandingly: "I know, so this situation is good for all of us."

"Um."

Gu Lan turned to look at Yi Fei and smiled faintly: "This must be Yi Fei. Thank you so much for taking care of Nan Feng over the past year."

"If I offended you in any way just now, I apologize here."

Yifei quickly said, "No need, no need to apologize."

"We were indeed impulsive just now, so we should be the ones apologizing."

Yifei has always been the type to respond better to gentle persuasion than force, and Gu Lan's current attitude made her feel embarrassed about her earlier behavior.

Yifei, who had previously held some reservations about Gu Lan, now had her impression of Gu Lan completely change.

She patted Nanfeng on the shoulder and said cheerfully, "It's too formal to say that. Nanfeng is also my family. I've always treated him like a younger sister."

Nanfeng's shoulder ached from Yifei's pat, and when he heard her words, he gasped, "Little sister? But I'm a man!"

"I know."

Yifei replied matter-of-factly, "But I've always wanted a younger brother and sister since I was little. Zhanbo is my younger brother, so you can only be my younger sister."

South wind: (⊙﹏⊙).

So, it turns out whether I'm a younger brother or sister doesn't depend on whether I'm male or female, but on your needs, right?

This logic is absolutely absurd!

"Nanfeng, aren't you going to introduce this beautiful lady to me?"

Gu Lan scrutinized Yu Mo across from her and asked.

Nanfeng quickly introduced, "Sister Lan, her name is Yu Mo. She's my good friend, and also Yi Fei's classmate and best friend since childhood. She lives next door to us now."

Gu Lan gave a faint smile and extended her hand to Yu Mo: "Hello."

Although she had been putting on makeup in her room, she had overheard most of what was happening outside.

Gu Lan knew her cousin well. Since Nanfeng was willing to confide such private things to her, their relationship must be quite special.

Perhaps... she could be of help?

Having recovered from the shocking revelation, Yu Mo shook hands with Gu Lan with a broad smile: "Hello, cousin."

Immediately afterwards, Gu Lan, who was trying to get information out of Yu Mo, and Yu Mo, who was trying to get closer to her, started chatting.

One of them is a top agent, and the other is a beauty consultant; their verbal skills are undoubtedly exceptional.

By the time Nanfeng and Yifei realized what was happening, Gu Lan and Yu Mo had already gone from awkward small talk to chatting and laughing like best friends.

Seeing that the two were getting along better and better and happier as they chatted, Nanfeng and Yifei even felt that they were just there to make up the atmosphere.

……

3601, Zhanbo stared in disbelief as Wanyu finished a large bowl of fried rice.

"Delicious, so delicious."

Wanyu handed Zhanbo the empty bowl, devoid of even a single grain of rice. She chewed on her fried rice and mumbled, "Zhanbo, I want another bowl. No, a big bowl!"

For the first time, Zhanbo looked at Wanyu with the eyes of someone looking at an alien.

He swallowed nervously, deciding to ask Wanyu tactfully.

"Wanyu, you...have been on a hunger strike for several days, haven't you?"

"Can my sister's fried rice really be considered delicious?"

Wan Yu nodded, and said earnestly, "But it's really delicious."

"But you clearly said before that only a starving person would find my sister's fried rice delicious!"

Zhanbo pointed to the braised pork knuckle playing nearby and said, "Look, it won't even eat the braised pork knuckle."

At this moment, the braised pork knuckle was lying next to the dining table, and not far away was a food bowl specially prepared for it by 3601, with a small amount of fried rice in the bowl.

However, the braised pork knuckle would rather play with an orange that had been sitting on its head for who knows how long than eat a bite of the fried rice in the bowl.

Although Yifei's fried rice is considered one of her specialties, it's nowhere near as good as Meijia's cooking.

Meijia's cooking was not only delicious and visually appealing, but also free of her hair, fake nails, and other odds and ends.

No normal person would want to play Minesweeper before eating, right?

Let alone normal people, even those who are used to Meijia's braised pork knuckle would look down on this fried rice.

Wan Yu was stunned when she heard Zhan Bo's words, and then she tapped the empty bowl in her hand with her spoon.

"Don't you think I look like a starving ghost right now?"

"All right."

Zhanbo took Wanyu's empty bowl, got up and served her a large bowl of fried rice with eggs.

Seeing Wanyu continue wolfing down her food with her head down, Zhanbo finally couldn't help but ask, "Wanyu, my older sister and I have been staying at Xiao Hei's place downstairs lately. What have you been eating these past few days?"

Wan Yu replied instinctively, "I haven't been eating much lately."

Why?

Zhanbo asked, puzzled, "You can eat at 3602."

"I didn't pay for meals. It's fine to eat at 3602 once or twice, but there's no reason for me to eat there every day."

Wan Yu muttered, "Even if I order takeout myself, it will cost a lot of money every day. Anyway, I don't eat much, so it's okay if I go hungry."

"I know it's hard to find summer jobs these days, but you seem to be short of money."

Zhanbo asked cautiously, "Wanyu, did you run into some trouble and spend all your money?"

Wan Yu paused, stopped wolfing down her food, and smiled brightly at Zhan Bo, saying, "No, Zhan Bo, you're definitely overthinking it."

"Wanyu, your smile... doesn't look happy at all."

Although Zhanbo is naive, he sees all of Wanyu's joys and sorrows, and Wanyu's current smile clearly shows that she has something to hide.

He asked worriedly, "Wanyu, have you been scammed? Is it a telecom fraud?"

Before Wanyu could reply, Zhanbo continued, "Or did someone stage an accident for you?"

"Does a serious illness require money?"

"Lin's Bank has gone bankrupt?"

"Seeking a son for a large sum of money?"

……

"What are all these things?!"

Wan Yu listened to Zhan Bo's increasingly bizarre guesses and showed a look that was both funny and exasperating.

"Then you are...?"

"Zhanbo, stop asking."

"……oh."

Zhanbo stared at Wanyu with a look of grievance and worry.

Wan Yu lowered her head and ate her fried rice by herself. Gradually, she ate slower and slower, as if she was thinking about something.

She suddenly looked up and asked.

"Zhanbo, if I told you I'm planning to leave Love Apartment, would you support me?"

I'm coming
