“Not only did he cheat, but he also cheated her with his sister-in-law. If he was my boyfriend, I would’ve murdered him.”
“You shouldn’t just murder him. You should torture him and let him suffer for the rest of his pitiful life.”
The crowd started to criticize Su Ze.
Su Ze started to frown.
He noticed that Qiao Mianmian was already far away and wanted to chase her. However, as he started to walk towards her, he saw a pair of eyes glaring coldly at him.
Su Ze was shocked and said, “Young Master Gong…”
Gong Zeli was trying to warn him with his glare. He took a deep look at Su Ze and left.
Su Ze was too scared to give chase.
His legs were frozen in fear. He slowly looked at the diamond ring that he failed to give. He then frowned and clenched his fist.
He… wasn’t going to give up.
…
Qiao Mianmian had only left for a while before she heard Gong Zeli calling out to her.
“Miss Qiao, please stop.”
She stopped and turned.
Gong Zeli stopped in his tracks and stood there, looking at her.
She wasn’t sure if her perception was wrong, but she felt that Gong Zeli… was treating her a lot better compared to last time.
He wasn’t behaving as though she owed him a huge sum of money.
She was a person that would reciprocate how others treated her.
Since he wasn’t treating her badly, she answered politely, “What’s the matter, Mr. Gong?”
Gong Zeli froze.
He was annoyed by how she addressed him.
He wasn’t happy with her attitude towards him as well.
He could feel that she was being cold towards him on purpose and was trying to distance herself from him.
She didn’t behave that way with Yan Shaoqing.
She was clearly more relaxed when she was with him.
Gong Zeli was aware of the reason. It was all because of him.
He had… treated her really badly previously.
Hence, it was almost impossible for her to move on from what happened.
But the issue for Gong Zeli was that he wasn’t annoyed when she gave him the same attitude previously.
Why would he feel annoyed now?
“The guy just now, was he your ex-boyfriend?” Gong Zeli asked. He wasn’t sure why he wanted to look for Qiao Mianmian.
He had no reason to look for her.
But… he felt that he just had to.
Qiao Mianmian hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Yes.”
After Qiao Mianmian answered, Gong Zeli didn’t know how to continue the conversation.
As he stood in silence, Qiao Mianmian stared at him for a while before asking, “Mr. Gong, was that the reason why you approached me?”
She had a good idea for why Gong Zeli approached her.
He should be worried that she would cheat on his buddy with her ex-boyfriend?
Hence, he must have wanted to make sure it wouldn’t happen, right?
He was best buddies with Mo Yesi. It would be logical to be worried if your buddy got cheated on.
Gong Zeli was shocked by the question.
He had no good reason for approaching her.
He just… wanted to talk to her.
The afternoon sun was strong. It was like a spotlight shining on Qiao Mianmian.
Qiao Mianmian had really fair skin. Under the sun, she looked as though she was glowing.
When you combined that with her perfect facial structure, silky smooth hair, and long white dress…
