Limited Possession – 23

Yes, he's now my husband.

--

Before filming for the official cooking scene, following a script, the director invited a senior nutritionist to draw up corresponding recipes according to each guest's physical condition. Then, each guest would play a game to win more ingredients that were required.

The nutritionist looked young, about twenty-three or twenty-four, and had a beautiful appearance. She was a beta. As soon as she appeared, she caused an uproar all around. She calmly introduced herself and said her name was Ruan Nanqing, then talked about a series of deceiving titles, and an official sentence "I hope I can help everyone find a suitable diet approach," after that, she walked towards Tu Yan with a smile.

Tu Yan pulled out a chair for her and smiled at her.

"You must be Tu Yan," Ruan Nanqing suddenly asked in a low voice after she sat down.

Tu Yan nodded, questioning why this nutritionist's name sounded a little familiar, then heard Ruan Nanqing say, "I'm Gu Chenbai's friend."

Tu Yan froze. Then, he remembered that this nutritionist was the "third miss of HT group" mentioned by Gu Chenbai.

Ruan Nanqing smiled at him, "Why, did he mention about me to you?"

Tu Yan knew that Gu Chenbai and this person were just friends, but his heart was in distress, and he said with neither salt nor lightly, "Yes, he even said he would treat you to a meal."

Ruan Nanqing covered her mouth and chuckled, "He did want to invite me to dinner. I've made a free diet plan for you for a whole year, from prenatal to postnatal body recovery, three meals a day. You can't even exchange him for a meal for such thoughtful service? Oh no, the both of you should invite me together."

Tu Yan had misunderstood before, and later, Gu Chenbai took the initiative to explain. Only after hearing Ruan Nanqing's explanation with his own ears, did his heart go down with ease. He smiled and gave his regards, "That's a must."

They filmed until the afternoon when it was their halftime.

Ruan Nanqing walked up and handed a glass of vegetable juice to Tu Yan, "He said you don't like to eat vegetables, so I've specifically selected some flavours that aren't too unpleasant, it tastes quite good."

"Thank you," Tu Yan took it with both hands.

Without knowing why, he felt that that atmosphere immediately became relaxed as soon as Ruan Nanqing appeared. It's probably because he heard a certain someone's name.

"When are the two of you getting remarried?"

Tu Yan blushed, "Soon."

Ruan Nanqing looked at him in a bantering manner, "Is it through willingness this time?"

Tu Yan didn't answer immediately and asked in reply, "What did he tell you?"

"About the remarriage? He hasn't said it yet, I guessed it myself."

"Oh."

"Didn't you forbid him to go public about your marriage before? He even kept it from a group of us close friends, and later we found out something was wrong and took the initiative to ask him, only did he tell us. But he was afraid that if one of us slipped up, it would affect your career, so he forced us to swear by poison one by one, it just lacked writing a letter of guarantee."

Tu Yan felt refreshed. The Gu Chenbai from Ruan Nanqing's mouth seemed different from the Gu Chenbai he's been seeing. He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "The past Gu Chenbai…what was he like?"

Ruan Nanqing tilted her head to think, then said, "Very public, very high spirited, he liked to play but had principle and a bottom line, the kind with a lot of small attendants."

Tu Yan was stunned hearing this.

"You should know his elder brother, Gu Chaocheng, who keeps a straight face all day, eccentric and super unsociable. At that time, Gu Chenbai took his elder brother wherever he went and accompanied him, not allowing anyone to bully him."

Ruan Nanqing lifted the hair away by her ear as she recollected, "To put it mildly, you shouldn't be jealous. Gu Chenbai was really one of the brightest people I've ever met when I was a teenager. Even his shortcomings are bright. Who would've thought that there would suddenly be a car accident…After his leg injury, it was as if he had become a very mature adult overnight. He didn't like to laugh nor cause trouble anymore. It took several years for him to regain a little bit of his old self."

Seeing that Tu Yan didn't speak, Ruan Nanqing nudged Tu Yan's arm, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"Sure enough, you're just as he said." Ruan Nanqing smiled.

"Hm?"

"You refuse to say what's on your mind." Ruan Nanqing smoothed his hair with a finger, then looked at Tu Yan with a smile.

Tu Yan wasn't annoyed by it, but it gave him a peace of mind. He looked at the vegetable juice in his hand and said softly, "I just feel a little sorry that I wasn't able to be part of his youth."

"You don't have to feel sorry. Now that you've met him, it's also the best thing."

Just then, the assistant director came over and notified them to continue shooting.

The artists had already made simple desserts and were chatting in a circle.

The topic this time was "first love".

Looking at the script, Chen Kai first read out some advertising words before stirring up an atmosphere. The artists then took turns talking about their first love.

As most of them were idols who debuted from the talent show, they didn't dare to say too much, and only talked about their amaetur hearts during their school days. A few even said they had no first love or second love. The others around all laughed. They were maintaining a fresh and pure image, so they could only say they definitely didn't have any with a blush.

When it was Tu Yan's turn, the atmosphere had become completely open. But seeing that it was Tu Yan, the surrounding people were secretly calling out that it was bad.

They guessed that Tu Yan would definitely throw down a phrase "I don't have any", then put on a long face again.

However, unexpectedly, after a few seconds of silence, Tu Yan said very earnestly, "My first love is a very good person."

Everyone held their breath as they exchanged gossipy looks in their eyes. Xu Jia'an raised his eyebrows and sneered.

Ruan Nanqing looked over as well, her eyes looking a little indignant as she felt it wasn't worth it on Gu Chenbai's behalf.

With the professionalism of a host, Chen Kai quickly took over the conversation and asked, "Oh? A very good person; this is a high evaluation."

"Yes, he has a lot of strengths that I can't finish talking about, I can only use 'very good' to describe him."

"Then, Xiao Yan, do you still keep in touch with your first love?"

Ruan Nanqing became nervous, her heart saying "don't ask anymore, don't ask anymore", and thinking if she should find Gu Chaocheng and pull the strings to ask someone to cut this bit out, not letting Gu Chenbai watch it.

Tu Yan put his hand on the table and fiddled with the wooden chopsticks. He suddenly hooked the corners of his mouth and made an astonishing statement, "Yes, he's now my husband."
