When Gu Xiao heard this, a glint flashed across her eyes. She held her phone in another hand and waved at Chu An with her free hand.

When Chu An saw this, he immediately put down his work and walked to Gu Xiao’s side. Then, he sat close to Gu Xiao and listened to the call with her.

“Watch a show? What kind of show would make my brother call me personally?” There was a hint of playfulness in Gu Xiao’s eyes as she pretended to be puzzled.

“A good show at the mansion of the Ji family.” Ji Chen said softly.

After he received the news, he thought that Gu Xiao might be interested in this, so he called her immediately. If Gu Xiao rushed over now, the show might not have started yet.

When Gu Xiao heard this, a sly look flashed across her eyes. She changed her sitting posture to make herself feel more relaxed.

“Since Brother has said so, I naturally have to go take a look. Then, Brother, let’s meet in front of our Ji family’s mansion!”

Having said that, Gu Xiao hung up the phone after making an agreement with Ji Chen.

She glanced sideways at Chu An with bright eyes. “Let’s go together?” How could she miss the Ji family’s big show?

Chu An looked at Gu Xiao dotingly and nodded. “Of course.”

After making the decision, Chu An took out an inconspicuous car key. After taking it, he brought Gu Xiao to the underground parking. After watching Gu Xiao fasten her seatbelt in the front passenger seat, Chu An started the car and drove towards the Ji family’s mansion.

When the two of them drove into the villa area, they did not directly enter the Ji family’s mansion. Instead, they stopped at a corner not far from the Ji family’s mansion.

This place was not far from the Ji residence. If the voices from the mansion were a little louder, they would be able to hear the sound. However, from the direction of the Ji family mansion, it was very difficult to see them here.

The two of them rolled down the car window in tacit understanding and carefully looked in the direction of the Ji family mansion.

Ji Gao did not seem to have returned yet. The Ji residence was very quiet at this moment. It was so quiet that it was a little scary, like the calm before a storm.

“What kind of show do you think Brother wants us to watch?” Gu Xiao glanced at the silent Ji residence, turned around, and met Chu An’s gaze.

The moment she met Chu An’s gaze, Gu Xiao felt that in his eyes, nothing was more important than her. Therefore, he wasn’t interested in anything else.

There was a hint of a smile in Chu An’s eyes. “We’ll find out eventually. There’s no hurry.”

Gu Xiao looked at Chu An’s eyes, which seemed to want to drown her in them, and her hands subconsciously grabbed the seat under her.

She lowered her eyes and waited for her heartbeat to slow down before looking up at him again.

“You’re right. Then let’s wait a little longer.” With that, she sat obediently in the front passenger seat and no longer tried to peer at the Ji residence.

When Chu An saw this, the smile in his eyes deepened. He stretched out his hand and directly held Gu Xiao’s hand which was by her side. Then, he played with it carefully in his hand, kneading it from time to time.

The two of them did not wait too long in the car, when they saw two cars driving towards the Ji residence one after another.

Gu Xiao and Chu An’s attention was immediately attracted by the cars outside, and their gazes followed the tracks of the two cars.

The two cars stopped in front of the Ji family’s mansion. They couldn’t even wait to park in the underground parking lot.

Ji Gao got out of the car in front and glanced at the car behind him with a sinister expression. Then, he hurriedly walked towards the Ji residence.

He had only taken a few steps when Ji Chen got out of the car behind him. He looked natural and relaxed, completely disregarding Ji Gao’s attitude.

The two of them watched as Ji Gao and Ji Chen walked into the Ji residence one after another. Just as Ji Chen walked into the Ji residence, Gu Xiao received a call from Ji Chen on her phone.

Gu Xiao and Chu An looked at each other and immediately understood Ji Chen’s plan.

She pressed the answer button, but did not make a sound. Instead, she held her breath and listened to the voices coming from the other end of the phone.

In the car, Gu Xiao and Chu An did not wait for long. In just a few seconds, Jiang He’s angry voice came from the phone.

“Ji Gao! How dare you come back!”

Even through the radio waves, they could tell that Jiang He was probably not in a good mood..
