Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Confession
He grabbed her hand, wanting to lead her onto the car.
However, Gu Qiangwei instinctively shook it off.
“No need! I’ll just stay at a hotel.”
Saying this, she turned and entered her Ferrari.
Watching her drive away, Shen Mochen followed her as well.
However, upon arriving at the hotel, the front desk staff asked her to present her ID to book a room.
In an instant, Gu Qiangwei was stunned.
Leaving Jueyuan, she had only brought her phone and laptop, while her wallet and ID were left in her bag…
As if suddenly remembering something, Gu Qiangwei’s eyes widened in shock!
Had she not run into Brother Mochen, wouldn’t she have been unable to even pay for coffee?
Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but swallow, feeling relieved… If that had been the case, it would really have been too embarrassing!
“Come to my apartment,” he said.
Behind her, Shen Mochen’s voice suddenly rang out.
Gu Qiangwei turned her head, seemingly not expecting him to follow her to the hotel.
With not a penny on her, it seemed like she truly had nowhere to go tonight.
Returning to Jueyuan to retrieve her bag, she wondered if Nangong Feifei was still there…
She looked up at Shen Mochen, eventually declining his kindness.
“Really, it’s not necessary. If I really went to your apartment, Qiao Muxue would definitely take it out on me again.” She hated Qiao Muxue, but she had already punished her last time, and after that, she didn’t want to be involved with her anymore.
Seeing that she was concerned about Qiao Muxue, Shen Mochen frowned slightly. “Why do you care about her? She and I have no relationship.”
Gu Qiangwei smiled awkwardly, “It’s not that I care, but rather, her hostility towards me stems from you. I also know that the Shen and Qiao families are close, many people have talked about the two of you ending up together, so—”
Before she could finish her sentence, Shen Mochen suddenly interrupted.
Gu Qiangwei looked up, not surprised by his interruption.
“I like you,” he suddenly spoke.
Gu Qiangwei was taken aback, her dark pupils filled with a hint of surprise, staring shocked at the man before her.
Yet Shen Mochen regarded her affectionately, “From the first moment I saw you in college, I liked you.”
“…” So, was this a confession?
Although she was shocked by Shen Mochen’s sudden declaration, Gu Qiangwei’s heart remained calm, unrippled by his emotions.
Towards Shen Mochen, she really only felt the affection one has for an older brother.
Whether in college or after graduation, he had always taken good care of her.
And for him, beyond that pure friendship, she harbored no other desires.
“Leave Qin Sijue, let me take care of you.” He gazed at her, his eyes full of sincerity.
Gu Qiangwei, however, felt somewhat uneasy about this sudden offer of affection.
“Mochen, really… thank you, but…”
“You don’t have to rush to answer me,” he interrupted her once more, “not today at least.”
She didn’t say anything further but shyly glanced at him, unsure of what else to say.
“Just come to my apartment for now, since you have nowhere to stay tonight anyway.”
“Really, it’s not necessary…”
“Let’s go!” He grabbed her hand again, just as the rain began to pour down heavily.
However, the moment he grasped her hand, as if to lead her back to his car, he suddenly felt a force come between them, and their hands were abruptly pulled apart!
Shen Mochen frowned, still trying to see what exactly had happened.
However, when he turned around, he met a pair of eyes chilling to the extreme, radiating danger.
