Reborn To Love Chapter 73

She turned around to look at him and saw that he was. . . undressing!
"Ah!" He Xinyan turned around, "What are you doing?"
Gu Yechen smirked as he unbuttoned the last button of the shirt and took it off, "You don't like any of the suits so I guess I just won't wear anything."
Xinyan's jaw dropped. She was just trying to take revenge on Gu Yechen. . .
He Xinyan had covered her eyes with her hands, and she loosened two fingers as she turned around.
She had always been curious about Gu Yechen's body, and since he took the initiative to remove his upper clothes, why shouldn't she take this opportunity to just. . . take a peek?
"Put your clothes on," He Xinyan said. She heard no response, so she widened her fingers a bit more and her eyes sparkled when she saw the sight in front of her.
He had a broad and chiseled chest, defined abs, a slim but strong waist, and He Xinyan's eyes moved down a little more. . .
Suddenly, she felt something grab onto her arm and she was pulled forward. Her head landed on the chest she was just looking at.
Gu Yechen was grinning as he looked down at the person leaning against his chest. He only smiled wider when he saw that she was blushing, "Why peek? You can look all you want."
He Xinyan quickly pushed Gu Yechen away and ran off, "I wasn't peeking!"
Gu Yechen chuckled deeply before putting back on his original clothes. He grabbed the red suit and walked out of the changing room.
He Xinyan was standing next to Qin Lai and her cheeks were still red as she talked to him about something. Gu Yechen's smile disappeared as he walked over.
"We're done. Let's go."
He Xinyan didn't dare look into Gu Yechen's eyes as she nodded, "Oh, okay."
Qin Lai led them out of the shop and waved at them as they entered the car, "Goodbye, Lord Gu. Goodbye, Mrs. Gu."
The car ride was awkwardly silent and He Xinyan finally decided to ask, "Gu Yechen, what suit did you buy?"
"What do you think?"
He Xinyan didn't expect him to question her back, and she thought for a few seconds before responding, "The red one?"

Gu Yechen smiled and used one hand to gently pat her head, "We really do think alike."
He Xinyan grinned and looked away. The two of them left to go eat lunch, and they stopped in front of a hotel.
He Xinyan stepped out of the car and looked at the golden words imprinted outside the building.
Dasi Hotel.
This was the best hotel in all of Country Z and even the lowest tier room inside cost at least 10,000 per night. Besides the enormous cost, one needed to pre-book a room a month earlier to be able to live inside this extravagant hotel.
The hotel itself is 321 meters in height and had 52 floors and 200 rooms. The smallest room was at least 100 square meters, and it had expensive furniture and decorations, and also great room service.
The people that were able to live here were all extremely rich. Even the He family wouldn't choose to live here often.
He Xinyan and Gu Yechen walked into the elevator together, and Gu Yechen gently pressed the floor button with his long and slender finger.
53.
Everyone knew that the Dasi Hotel only had 52 floors, but there was actually one more floor above the 52nd floor. This floor was designed with all glass walls. On the top floor, one could eat delicious food and take in the beautiful scenery of the city at the same time.
What's even better is that after dining, one could go to the resting area at the side. There were blankets and hammocks on the grass where you could lay down and watch the beautiful, night sky.
There were only a few people that could enter this top floor. To be exact, the top floor basically only served one person.
The elevator came to a stop and the door opened.
"Please, just for a few hours. Our wedding is very soon and we really want to hold it here. Please."
As soon as He Xinyan stepped out of the elevator, she heard this familiar sound. She raised one eyebrow and froze.
"I am very sorry, but this is Mr. Gu's private place, and it is not open to the public. That is, unless Mr. Gu allows it." The manager wore a black tuxedo and he politely rejected Su Zhiming's request.

Li Yuyan stood next to Su Zhiming, and she pressed her lips together when she heard that this place belonged to Gu Yechen.
Although she still couldn't be sure, Li Yuyan assumed that the man she had seen next to He Xinyan while filming would be Gu Yechen. Although she didn't want to believe it, the man's dominating presence and amazing looks all pointed to this conclusion.
However, she was sure that by now, they would have broken up already. Why would a man like Gu Yechen waste time on a woman like He Xinyan?
Su Zhiming sighed. He remembered that Li Yuyan had once said that the most romantic thing would be to eat dinner on the 53rd floor of the Dasi Hotel. It seems like it wouldn't happen now. . .
"Mr. Gu, you're here!" The manager walked around Su Zhiming and stopped in front of Gu Yechen before politely bowing.
Su Zhiming and Li Yuyan both turned around at once, and Li Yuyan let out a gasp when she saw He Xinyan and the man at the filming set.
Su Zhiming also furrowed his eyebrows when he saw He Xinyan. He had long forgotten about the news of He Xinyan and the CEO of the Gu Corporation, so he was very surprised to see her standing next to another man. . . Another extremely handsome man.
"Yes, I brought my Yanyan over to eat dinner. Manager Rou, please prepare two servings of my normal order." Gu Yechen suddenly lifted up He Xinyan's hand and gently looked towards her, "Yanyan, is that okay?"
He Xinyan blinked a few times before a small smile appeared on her face, "Yep!"
Li Yuyan cleared her throat and pushed down her surprise, "Yanyan, what are you doing here? Who is he?"
He Xinyan glanced at the couple standing across from her, "Why can't I be here? He's my boyfriend. Baby, let's go."
Gu Yechen raised one eyebrow when He Xinyan called him baby, and he licked his lips with a smile. However, he wasn't in a rush.
He lifted He Xinyan's hand and began playing with her beautiful fingers, "Manager Rou, it seems like the security of the 53rd floor don't want their jobs anymore."
"Mr. Gu, I will make it clear to them to not allow anyone else onto the 53rd floor." Manager Rou immediately walked over to Su Zhiming and Li Yuyan, "Excuse me sir and ma'am, please leave. You cannot be here and the 53rd floor is already booked for August 9th."
He Xinyan bit her lip gently. It's already booked? If Gu Yechen really was the "owner" of the 53rd floor, only he would be able to book it, right? What was he doing up here on August 9th? Unless it was one of his friends that booked it. . .
Gu Yechen pulled He Xinyan away and they sat down in the center of the restaurant.
"You didn't give me a proper reason yet! Who is he? Why can he be here, but I can't?" Su Zhiming asked. Li Yuyan was also curious about this. Was that man really the CEO of the Gu Corporation?
The manager cleared his throat and lowered his voice slightly, "To be honest, I'm not very sure either. He is definitely related to the Gu family in some way, but I'm not sure who he is exactly. However, I think he probably has a pretty powerful position in the Gu Corporation. Only the Gu family can access this top floor, so he is definitely part of the family. Now, please leave."
Li Yuyan let out a breath of relief to hear that the man wasn't the boss of the Gu Corporation. He may be just some far relative without any real power in the Gu family. In that case, she still had a chance.
Although they were angry that they couldn't book the top floor for the wedding, Li Yuyan and Su Zhiming had also guessed this result. In the end, they booked the lobby on the second floor of the hotel, which was also very expensive.
Su Zhiming paid for this, as his company had recently made a lot of money from the project. To Bai Jiawei and his amazement, his company had squeezed into the top 100 entertainment companies in Country Z already, mainly due to the help of the He family.
After they had successfully booked the location, Li Yuyan and Su Zhiming entered the car, where Bai Jiawei was waiting for them.
"How was it?" Bai Jiawei asked.
