Chapter 745: Chapter 746: Can’t Bear to Torture Her
Xia Yangyang smiled and simply did not explain any further.
By the time Xia Yangyang returned to Gu Qichen’s office,
Gu Qichen had just finished eating.
Xia Yangyang was slightly surprised, “You actually finished all the dishes.”
Indeed, Gu Qichen had eaten all the food.
Even the fish soup was gone, not a drop left.
Xia Yangyang walked over, “Aren’t you full?”
Xia Yangyang remembered that she cooked quite a lot.
Gu Qichen replied, “My wife cooked, I can’t waste it.”
Xia Yangyang didn’t expect Gu Qichen to have such a silly side.
Gu Qichen changed the subject, “What did Zijun talk with you about?”
Xia Yangyang deliberately teased, “Miss Xi said she likes you and wants to compete with me fairly.”
Gu Qichen just chuckled, completely unimpressed, “No way, I bet she said exactly the opposite. She must’ve feared you’d misunderstand, and explained it to you, right?”
Gu Qichen really does understand Xi Zijun.
Xia Yangyang smiled, “Yes, you’re right.”
Xia Yangyang sat down and asked seriously, “There’s a question I’ve always wanted to ask you.”
Gu Qichen looked at her, “What is it?”
“Xi Zijun is so excellent, why don’t you like her? You have so much interaction in your businesses, both of you work together, wasn’t there even a spark of love?”
Gu Qichen coldly huffed, “Xia Yangyang, do you know that because of your departure without saying goodbye, my conception of love was ruined by you. In these four years, all I have thought about is how to torture you when I find you, to return the pain you gave me ten-fold or a hundred-fold.”
Xia Yangyang was wearing a teasing smile, “Then why haven’t you tortured me yet?”
Gu Qichen sighed, seeming very powerless, “I can’t bear to.”
The words “I can’t bear to” felt like a can of honey, both warm and sweet in her heart.
Although she and Gu Qichen hadn’t seen each other in four years,
She used to think the distance was insurmountable,
In just a few days, it seemed like time had returned to the past.
Xia Yangyang felt immensely relieved.
In the evening, Gu Qichen took Xia Yangyang and Xia Ye back to the Gu’s place.
Xia Yangyang couldn’t help feeling a bit nervous.
After waking up in the afternoon, Xia Ye had something to eat and went to the Gu’s place with them.
She heard Gu Qichen had called home earlier.
Although Xia Yangyang didn’t hear it clearly,
She did hear the old master’s voice sounding very stubborn, saying that he didn’t want to see her.
But no matter what, this was something Xia Yangyang had to face.
The old master was sitting in the study.
He held a photo in his hand, observing it carefully.
A rare gentle smile appeared on his face.
Just then, Gu Mingzhu walked in.
The old master silently put away the picture.
Gu Mingzhu’s gaze twitched slightly, “Dad, Ah Chen and her will be back soon.”
The old master said coldly and ruthlessly, “I will not let that woman enter. If Ah Chen really wants to reconcile with her, he can get out.”
Gu Mingzhu walked closer, “Dad, let it go, didn’t you really like that kid? If they are together, then you can see that kid often.”
The old master’s face changed, “Who said I like that kid, I won’t recognize him.”
“Then what’s the picture in your hand?”
The old master said, “This is a picture of Ah Chen when he was little, not that kid.”
Gu Mingzhu went over, reached his side and took the picture out of his hand, “This is clearly a picture of that child. Last time you refused to see the child, but you asked Uncle Fu to take a picture secretly.”
Finally, Gu Shengyuan sighed, “I just think the kid is cute, but actually, I don’t like him much.”
