Friend With Benefits With My Stepsis' Fiance

"It's just a finger; my sister won't blame me, right?"

Eight years ago, the girl's naive and innocent smile flashed through my mind.

They say each of the ten fingers is connected to the heart.

Su Qingwan had caused her tenfold pain, so much so that even after eight years, her knuckles still ached faintly.

If Shen Qifeng could really treat her finger, that would be an unexpected joy.

But Shen Qifeng was no ordinary doctor, with unpredictable whereabouts, and his surgeries were hard to schedule.

After a moment of thought, Su Ye casually opened the chat on her phone and typed a few words indifferently: "Help me find out where Shen Qifeng will be tomorrow."

Lin Tang replied with a "Okay."

Just as Su Ye was about to close WeChat, Lin Tang suddenly popped up another message.

"Yeye, if you're interested in Shen Qifeng, what about Gu Yan?"

Su Ye paused.

She lowered her eyes, and quickly explained, "He won't marry me. I've already broken things off with him."

She'd not deluded herself into thinking about marrying Gu Yan.

With the overwhelming power of the Gu Family, Su He wouldn't dare harbor thoughts against Madam Gu.

Rather than indulging in that beautiful dream,

she'd rather hope that one day, she wouldn't have to sever ties with Gu Yan because of the Su Family.

At this moment,

on a luxury cruise in the city's west, Gu Yan was absent-mindedly accompanying Su Qingwan to watch the fireworks.

Su Qingwan had invited a few close friends to sit on the cruise ship, excitedly watching the starry sky as the fireworks bloomed.

They chattered away.

Gu Yan leaned lazily against the railing, his emotions unreadable.

Beside him, Qiao Ze was engrossed in the gossip in the group chat, eagerly sharing with Gu Yan.

"...Tsk, the adopted daughter of the Su Family has taken an interest in Shen Qifeng?"

Gu Yan's movements paused, his brow slightly furrowed, with a subtle hint of disdain emerging.

"Who?"

"It's Su Ye. I heard she's inquiring about Shen Qifeng," Qiao Ze couldn't help but click his tongue: "That Shen Qifeng is pretty lucky, Su Ye's face is really..."

The man's eyes were filled with unsaid implications.

Gu Yan half-closed his eyes, thought of the woman in bed, and carelessly pinched out his cigarette.

It was really daring.

She had climbed into his bed yet still thought of others.

He absent-mindedly unlocked his phone, only to see the message Su Ye had sent him.

Gu Yan paused for a moment, his narrow black eyes dangerously squinting.

He sent a "?" back, but what responded to him was a bright red exclamation mark.

Gu Yan's thin lips curled into a dangerous arc, a chill settling in his eyes.

She really had guts.

She had actually blocked him.

"Ah Yan."

Su Qingwan's soft and sweet voice rose.

She walked quickly toward him, and Gu Yan glanced indifferently at Su Qingwan.

"Thank you for today; I'm really happy."

She pursed her lips, her expression tenderly gazing at Gu Yan, and her tone carried a sweet shyness.

Due to a car accident, she had been hospitalized for a while.

Gu Yan said he would pick her up but unexpectedly prepared such a surprise for her.

Gu Yan collected his phone without a change in expression, his voice unremarkable: "As long as you're happy."

Envious glances fell upon Su Qingwan, her heart racing with a thrilling sense of satisfaction.

Over the years, relying on Gu Yan, she and the Su Family had received many envious stares.

Although Ah Yan had never been passionate toward her from start to finish, she was clear in her heart—he must have feelings for her.

When she became Madam Gu...

At the thought, Su Qingwan's heart raced, and she looked at Gu Yan with a smile, softly extending an invitation.

"Ah Yan, Sisi is having a small gathering in Xitang tomorrow, do you have time? I heard Dr. Shen, Sisi's brother, will also be there; I want Dr. Shen to check my leg…"

Gu Yan's expression was indifferent as usual.

At the mention of "Dr. Shen," he paused and half-closed his eyes: "Sisi's brother?"

Su Qingwan explained, "I think his name is Shen Qifeng, a renowned surgeon. Sisi seems to really admire her brother, said she wants to show him off a bit."

Gu Yan flicked the cigarette ash, his expression dark and cold.

He sneered almost inaudibly.

After a while, his thin lips firmly spat out a word.

"Go."

Gu Yan pinched out the cigarette, the scattered sparks suddenly extinguished.

He wanted to see for himself what kind of green hat Su Ye had put on him...

...

Su Ye slept surprisingly well that night.

The next day.

She and Lin Tang agreed on a time and drove to Xitang.

Su Ye really hadn't expected to bump into Gu Yan and Su Qingwan, the scandalous couple, in Xitang.

She got off the car, and as soon as she stepped onto the Xitang Golf Course, Su Qingwan's voice rang out:

"Sister, why are you here too?"

She seemed somewhat surprised, her clear eyes innocently and inquiringly looking toward Su Ye and Lin Tang.

By her side, Gu Yan had one hand in his pocket, his phoenix eyes half-closed, his deep and indolent gaze landing on Su Ye.

Su Ye stopped in her tracks, forcing a smile on her face.

Before leaving home, she really should have checked the almanac.

She had just blocked her lover, and yet, after just one night, he saw her warming up to another man.

However, Gu Yan's expression was indifferent, as if he didn't mind her unilateral severance.

She retracted her gaze, and spoke carelessly, "Even with your leg broken, you manage to drag men around; it's not strange that I, healthy as I am, come out for some golf, is it?"

Lin Tang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Su Qingwan's face changed.

She pressed her lips together, hinting at something difficult to express.

"Sister, does President Qin know about you coming here to play? Dad said your wedding is approaching, and if President Qin finds out, he probably won't be happy."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Ye sensitively felt Gu Yan's gaze sweeping her way.

Her heart tightened inexplicably.

"You better mind your own business."

Su Ye replied coolly, dismissing the odd feeling in her heart, "Even with a broken leg, let's hope your brain isn't also damaged."
