Chapter 322 â Loving My Love Rival (15)
A City International Airport.
Yao Shanshan took off her sunglasses and glanced at her homeland. There was a longing smile on her exquisite and beautiful face.
Gu Shuxing, Iâm back.
A City Center Hospital.
Ever since Gu Shuxing left Xiao Qingâs home last night, he hadnât seen his unreliable fiancee in a while. A few days ago, Gu Shuxing encountered Jiang Min in the neighborhood and from then, he found out that Xiao Qing and Yan Mubai had been together every day. It seemed like she had bought shares into Yan Mubaiâs store and wanted to help out his business.
Didnât they know that they would garner enemies from selling these goods?
To this, Gu Shuxing was speechless but whenever he thought of Xiao Qing and Yan Mubai being so close together, Gu Shuxing felt a bit uncomfortable.
After all, they had an arranged marriage. Though he didnât have much feelings towards Xiao Qing, the two didnât openly talk about their marriage either.
Of course, what made Gu Shuxing toss and turn restlessly in bed had to do with something else.
Xiao Qing and Yan Mubai, and Su Wan.
Gu Shuxing thought that Xiao Qingâs attitude towards the two of them was really strange and she seemed to know them really well. Even if she hired private investigators to investigate the two of them, there was no way that sheâd know about the details of their lifestyles.
Xiao Qing, just whatâŠsorts of secrets have you hidden?
It was evening by the time he got off work from the hospital. Like usual, he changed his clothes and went to the parking lot to get his car. Who knew that he just walked out of the hospital when a pleasant female voice stopped him.
âGu Shuxing!â
He paused hearing the voice and then quickly turned around. Under the sunlight, Yao Shanshan smiled splendidly at him wearing a faint blue overcoat.
âGu Shuxing, Iâm back!â
Saying this, she quickly ran to him and tightly hugged him.
They got to know each other from abroad seven years ago. At that time, everyone was a foreign exchange student. After finding out that they were both from the same city, the two immediately got closer to one another.
At that time, Yao Shanshan already knew that Gu Shuxing liked her but it was a really difficult thing to have an old-fashioned and slow man take the initiative to confess.
Yao Shanshan was a beautiful lady and there were many admirers too. On her birthday banquet, she had hinted to Gu Shuxing to confess to her but he didnât understand.
In the end, under a whim of anger, Yao Shanshan found a foreigner to be her boyfriend. She just wanted to anger Gu Shuxing. She didnât plan on actually having a relationship with him but who knew that after Gu Shuxing found out, he even called to bless her.
Then the two lost contact.
Yao Shanshan was a really proud woman. She thought that Gu Shuxing wouldnât compromise at all, then they might as well break off relations for good.
Up until two years ago, Yao Shanshan encountered a foreign exchange student that she used to play with back then during a company dinner. Through him, she found out that the day she announced she had a boyfriend, Gu Shuxing drank until daylight in his dorm all alone.
As a man who claimed heâd become the most outstanding surgeon, he wasnât allowed to drink at all.
But that day, Gu Shuxing got drunk. Only himself. He endured all of this silently and quietly.
This might be how he dealt with things. Back then, Yao Shanshan didnât understand. But now, she did.
Thatâs why she came back.
âShanshan?â
Gu Shuxing revealed a rare smile seeing Yao Shanshan who hadnât changed much. âWhen did you come back?â
âToday. As soon as I got off the plane, I arranged everything and then came straight to you. Do you feel touched?â
Yao Shanshan let go and then looked at Gu Shuxing with a sparkling gaze. Before returning, she had arranged everything and asked many people about Gu Shuxingâs matters. She found out that he was still single.
Therefore, this time, she was going to take the initiative. She canât lose this man again.
âHeh.â
Gu Shuxing smiled faintly upon hearing her words. âIt just so happens that I got off work. Letâs go eat. Iâll host a welcoming dinner for you.â
âSure!â
Yao Shanshan smiled and walked to Gu Shuxingâs side, naturally holding onto his arms. âBefore I came back, I heard from May and the others that a new Yi Jiangnan has opened in A City. I heard that their signature dishes are delicious. Letâs go there!â
Yi JiangnanâŠ
Gu Shuxing couldnât help but think of Xiao Qing. He smiled and nodded. âOkay, then letâs go to Yi Jiangnan!â
The restaurant just so happens to be the busiest when people get off work. Because they hadnât reserved a spot in the restaurant ahead of time, Gu Shuxing and Yao Shanshan had to wait ten minutes before they got a private room.
âI have no idea what you like to eat so you can pick.â
Gu Shuxing pushed the menu to Yao Shanshan like a gentleman. Yao Shanshan pursed her lips and smiled faintly. âI actuallyâŠhavenât changed my taste all these years. IâŠstill have the same taste.â
No matter what, women canât say things too straightforwardly. Plus, this was their first meeting after the reunion.
Yao Shanshan had given Gu Shuxing enough hints. UnfortunatelyâŠ
Doctor Gu didnât seem to detect the hidden meaning in Yao Shanshanâs words.
He waited until Yao Shanshan finished picking before the two started chatting mindlessly. There werenât many people in his friend circle that could chat with him because of his aloof personality. Yao Shanshan, however, belonged to the group of people that appealed to Gu Shuxingâs liking.
This might be why Gu Shuxing ended up liking Yao Shanshan back then.
It was hard to find someone in the world that could understand you.
But lovers and intimate friends were different concepts.
Gu Shuxing looked at Yan Shanshan. He had gotten over his first love. Maybe his first love really didnât know love?
Yi Jiangnan brought the dishes over quite quickly but before Gu Shuxing and Yao Shanshan could start eating, they heard noises outside.
âIâve reserved a private room in the afternoon but now youâre telling me thatâs gone? What do you guys mean? Do you think I canât afford the money?â
There was an angry female voice. Gu Shuxing could tell that was Xiao Qingâs voice right away.
It was unclear why but he couldnât help but laugh.
âShuxing? Whatâs the matter?â
âNothing. Thereâs a friend downstairs. Iâm going to take a look.â
Saying this, Gu Shuxing immediately started walking out while Yao Shanshan followed along confusedly.
Right now, Xiao Qing, Su Rui, and Su Wan were in the lounge. This was quite a coincidence. Su Wan had quit her job here a few days ago and now the three focused on handling their store at Jiulin Street. The three planned on clearing the goods in the store and then finding a reliable manufacturer to work with, and creating their own brand. The three had been dealing with this for several days and they finally found a good factory. They just had to sign the contract.
Xiao Qing couldnât resist the urge to reserve a table at Yi Jiangnan because of this happy event. The three planned on getting drunk tonight.
Who knew that before the three came, there just so happens to be some officials within this area coming here to treat their bosses. At this time, only Xiao Qingâs reserved private room was empty so the friendly and approachable boss decided on this private room. So what if it was a bit small? We canât add onto someoneâs burden for our convenience!
Xiao Qing was speechless.
Screw you~
âMiss Xiao, Iâm really sorry. Why donât you wait for a bit? A roomâs going to be available soon. PlusâŠyou and your friends can eat here for free today.â
A manager at the reception desk kept on apologizing to Xiao Qing but she felt upset still.
When I used to be poor, I kept getting bullied by rich men. Now that Iâm finally a rich and beautiful woman, Iâm still getting bullied?
This makes no sense~
