Chapter 736: Chapter 710: Love Hurts the Most 9
But if he didn’t agree, this billions-worth project along with the billions in profit could be lost.
A glint flashed in Gu Huai’an’s eyes, he could just accept the deal as long as he received the funds from Beiming Han. Who would notice if he pocketed just a few billion from the several billions?
After Gu Huai’an had left, Beiming Han took Gu Qingxin out for a meal before they went home.
The young girl had been exceptionally behaved these days, enough to melt Beiming Han’s heart.
Xiao Zirui transferred Gu Qingxin’s payment in full to her bank account.
She looked at the amount on her mobile banking app, feeling a strange mix of joy and sadness.
Because having received the money meant that the day she was to part ways with Beiming Han was getting closer.
Even though the ten thousand was just a small part of what she owed him, she could slowly repay the rest later.
After one of her classes that day, Gu Qingxin asked Bai Qianqian to go shopping with her. She wanted to buy a gift for Beiming Han.
Considering they’ve been together for such a long time and were soon to part ways, she wanted to give him a gift as a keepsake.
Gu Qingxin asked Bai Qianqian what she should gift him, and Qianqian instantly suggested, “A tie.”
Gu Qingxin also found this idea quite good. Last time she had gifted him a shirt, now she could pair it with a tie.
Beiming Han usually didn’t wear ties often, and when he did, he preferred black which made him look even more indifferent.
Although Gu Qingxin thought Beiming Han looked handsome in a black tie, she wanted to gift him a tie of a different color this time.
Among the rows of ties on the wall, she quickly fell for a royal blue stylish tie.
Not a traditional tie, but one that was thinner and more fashionable.
“How about this?” Gu Qingxin turned to ask Bai Qianqian.
“It looks good, very suitable for Beiming Han,” Bai Qianqian answered with a forced smile.
She remembered the year when she confessed to Senior Rui Qing and gave him a tie as a gift. She knew giving a man a tie from a woman signified her want to bind him.
Unfortunately, she and him just weren’t meant to be.
Gu Qingxin, engrossed in choosing a tie, did not notice Qianqian’s forced expression. After making her choice, she had the salesperson wrap the tie for her and she paid with her card.
“Thank you for your patronage,”
The salesperson’s sweet voice echoed as Gu Qingxin picked up the tie and there she saw Tang Rongling, who just walked in.
Gu Qingxin picked up her stuff and said to Bai Qianqian, “Let’s go.”
“Okay,” Bai Qianqian, who had also noticed Tang Rongling, gave him a derisive glance as she followed Gu Qingxin towards the exit.
They intended to leave, but that didn’t mean Tang Rongling was willing to let them leave just like that.
Tang Rongling stepped in front of Gu Qingxin, nearly making her bump into him.
“What are you doing? Ever heard of the saying ‘good dogs don’t block the way’?” Bai Qianqian, pulling Gu Qingxin a few steps back, glared at him displeased.
“Bai Qianqian, I heard your family business has been annexed. You really should rid yourself of your spoilt princess attitude,” Tang Rongling replied, looking at her impassively.
“Whether I change or not it’s none of your business! Aren’t you just a pooch raised by Gu Huai’an and Gu Yunci? All you do is wag your tail and fawn over the father-daughter duo every day!” Bai Qianqian really despised Tang Rongling.
If Bai Qianqian had to rank the men she loathed the most in the world, Bai Jingqing could only come second. It was Tang Rongling who occupied the top spot.
