After being dumped, I turned around and married my ex-boyfriend's younger brother.

Chapter 23 They're younger than you

"Mr. Gu said I'm a womanizer, so naturally I need to frequently meet new people."

Following Gu Yanli's lead, Su Yiran sat directly on his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Even the ancients could keep male concubines, and now I can't even take a few more glances at pretty boys?"

"So you mean watching isn't enough? You want to learn those decadent practices too?"

"is it not OK?"

"What do you say?"

"OK then."

Su Yiran sighed, listlessly let go of Gu Yanli's hand, pushed him away, and opened the door to get out of the car.

"What's wrong? Are you upset again?"

Gu Yanli held her hand, stopping her from opening the door, and leaned down to look at her. "My wife wants to see other men, can't I refuse? Then tell me, what do you like about those men? I'll learn from you."

Su Yiran sniffed and muttered softly, "You can't learn that. They're younger than you, so you can't learn that."

"..." Gu Yanli's five senses are better than those of ordinary people.

Su Yiran's words only made Gu Yanli's face turn dark.

"You've only been married a short time and you're already complaining about my age, Su Yiran. Has anyone ever told you that you're a jerk?"

"Have."

Su Yiran nodded emphatically.

Gu Yanli took a deep breath. "Who said that?"

"You," Su Yiran said bluntly, "don't you remember what you just said?"

"..."

Gu Yanli's eyes glazed over.

He's brought home a real ancestor.

An ancestor who was always trying to annoy him.

"If Mr. Gu has nothing else, I'm going to bed."

Su Yiran withdrew her hand and got out of the car on her own.

She went straight to her room on the second floor.

Last time I stayed there, Madam Lan had the room redecorated and a lot of new clothes added.

Su Yiran took a nightgown from the closet and went to take a shower. After showering, she suddenly remembered something.

The rose-red agate ring was still in Gu Yanli's car.

Feeling empty without her belongings, she put on her coat and went downstairs.

It was late at night, and apart from the light footsteps of the bodyguards on duty, everything was quiet and nothing could be heard.

She didn't know where the garage was and wandered around for a long time before a figure jumped out from the shadows.

"Ah ah ah..."

Su Yiran was startled, her hands gripping her clothes tightly, her palms sweating, her mind in a daze, until she could see the face of the person in front of her clearly.

"Gu Yanli, are you trying to cultivate immortality by staying up so late at night?"

Gu Yanli, dressed in black silk casual wear, with one hand in his pocket, looked at the panicked person in front of him with interest.

"That's what I should be asking you. Didn't you say you were going to sleep? Aren't you afraid the bodyguards will mistake you for a thief and arrest you if you sneak out like this?"

"Where did I sneak around? If I were sneaking around, would you have caught me?"

Su Yiran pouted, "I left the ring in the car. I'll come and look for it. It's just that your house is too big, and I can't find the garage anywhere."

"Ok?"

A man's voice rang out from above, "Madam Gu's words are not tactful."

Su Yiran stared in surprise, her mouth slightly agape. She looked up and met his eyes, then belatedly realized what was happening.

Gu Yanli was adept at finding the right words.

Su Yiran bit her lip as a gift box came into view.

Gu Yanli handed her the gift box. "Is this it?"

Su Yiran looked at the familiar box, nodded, took it, said "thank you," and then turned and ran back.

Gu Yanli watched the panicked figure's retreating figure, a smile playing on his lips.

Inside the room, Su Yiran lay on the bed, her cheeks flushed red.

She wasn't like those shy girls outside. She wasn't like this when she saw Gu Yanli before. These past few times, her face would turn red every time she saw him.

Especially when she heard that "Mrs. Gu's words were not precise," her breathing slowed down.

Last time I visited the Gu Family Manor, I was a guest; this time, I became the host.

This is her and Gu Yanli's home.

She thought each word was normal, but when put together, it made her feel like she was in a dream.

Su Yiran tossed and turned in bed, looking at the gift box she had just brought back, and then opened it.

Her pupils dilated!

The box was a familiar box, but the ring inside was different.

The ring is exquisitely designed and crafted. The diamonds set in the ring setting are flawless, and each facet has been carefully polished. It is impossible to make such a ring in a short period of time.

You can tell at first glance that it is worth a lot of money.

Su Yiran gripped the box tightly, got out of bed, and left the room.

The two rooms faced each other, and upon stepping outside, they saw the tightly closed doors.

She stood at the door and reached out to knock, but the door opened by itself as soon as her hand touched it.

"Mr. Gu?"

Gu Yanli appeared at the door, looking down at Su Yiran, "What brings you here, Madam Gu, in the middle of the night?"

late at night……

Su Yiran sighed. "These four words are quite well chosen. It's getting late," she thought, "but Gu Yanli's words convey a different meaning."

Su Yiran shoved the box in her hand into Gu Yanli's hand, "You've got the wrong one. I wanted the rose-red agate ring, this isn't mine."

"Oh?"

Gu Yanli looked at the box in his hand, held it in his palm, and opened the door. "The boxes are all the same. I may have taken the wrong one. The ring is inside. Madam Gu, come and find it yourself to avoid taking the wrong one again."

Su Yiran met Gu Yanli's gaze, but he only glanced at her before turning and walking inside.

She went inside as if possessed.

In Su Yiran's mind, there are countless boxes out there; who would be so bored as to use the same one twice? She planned to grab one and run, but...

When she saw a table full of identical boxes, she gasped, her legs felt like lead, and she couldn't move them at all.

"Mr. Gu, this... um!"

Su Yiran called out softly, but received no response. Then, a figure leaned down and kissed her lips.

Gu Yanli stroked the back of her head with one hand and held her waist with the other, pulling her into his arms with a slight pull.

Su Yiran was stunned by the kiss, and her hands instinctively grabbed his clothes.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Yanli finally released her.

Su Yiran gradually regained consciousness, panting heavily, her heart pounding wildly. She scolded softly, "You're not being fair."

She finally understood that the "chance encounter" downstairs was premeditated, and that he had deliberately taken the wrong ring, knowing that she would come looking for him once she discovered the ring was wrong.

That's why the door opened unexpectedly.

turn out to be--

Sit back and wait for the rabbit.

"I was just coaxing my wife back to her room to sleep, how is that being unkind?"

Gu Yanli stroked the stray hairs on her forehead, his tone gentle but with a hint of complaint, "Didn't I say that married couples don't sleep in separate rooms? It seems Yiyi didn't take it to heart."

"I……"

"Since you've provoked me, you should take responsibility to the end. Don't forget one lover after another and go looking for a new one."

"..."

Su Yiran listened to his words, her mind a jumbled mess, unable to think clearly, and she had no idea how he had tricked her into bed.
