After getting the car, he drove towards his downtown apartment, but when he stopped the car, he saw the glittering sign of Black Pool...
Gu Ningyi sat in the car, stiff for a few seconds, and finally hit the steering wheel hard.
The group of high school classmates were mostly from the same social circle of wealthy heirs, always ready to have fun, and the atmosphere in the private room was extremely lively.
Dong Xin Yan always didn’t fit in with them, and if it weren’t for wanting to see Gu Ningyi today, she wouldn’t have come. Now that there was no hope, she didn’t want to stay any longer.
The lights and music were really making her dizzy.
"Qianqian, since Gu Ningyi isn’t coming, I think I’ll head back first." Fresh chapters posted on novel※fire.net
Qin Qian saw that Dong Xin Yan indeed didn’t look too well and also knew she didn’t fit in with these people, so Qin Qian nodded directly, "Alright, wait for a bit while I tell everyone, I’ll take you back."
"No need, I can go back on my own."
"How could that be, it’s so late already, just wait for me a moment!"
As Qin Qian spoke, she was about to stand up when Yuan Shen, clearly displeased, complained, "Qin Qian, we haven’t met or talked on the phone for three months, and now less than half an hour after meeting, you’re leaving?"
Qin Qian paused slightly, then curled her lips and replied unceremoniously, "If you were of any use to me, maybe we could meet a bit longer. But now you’re of no use to me at all, why should I waste time meeting a stallion like you?"
Even back in high school, Qin Qian was sharp-tongued. Now as a journalist, her words hit even stronger, leaving Yuan Shen’s face alternating between blue and white, "Qin Qian, I told you that was a misunderstanding!"
Qin Qian chuckled again, too lazy to argue with Yuan Shen, stood up on her own, and walked towards the group.
Yuan Shen, furious, got up to clarify things with Qin Qian, but suddenly the phone rang. He paused, took out the phone, and when he saw the caller ID, his eyes lit up sharply, and he couldn’t wait to answer the call, "Mr. Gu, where are you?"
The mention of Mr. Gu instantly drew the attention of both Dong Xin Yan and Qin Qian back to Yuan Shen, especially Dong Xin Yan, who couldn’t help but get nervous.
Not knowing what Gu Ningyi said to Yuan Shen on the other end, Yuan Shen smiled and reported the room name, then hung up the call quickly, smiling at Qin Qian, "Now I have utility value. Can we meet a bit longer?"
Five minutes later, Gu Ningyi appeared at the door of the private room.
Yuan Shen greeted him, teasing playfully, "Bro, if you didn’t come tonight, my wife might have been lost."
As he spoke, he winked at Qin Qian, who turned her face expressionlessly and said to Dong Xin Yan, "I now admit I was brainless back then for getting involved with such a person."
Dong Xin Yan gave a sympathetic look in return, but at the moment, she was the one more in need of sympathy.
From the moment Gu Ningyi appeared, she unconsciously held her breath, and her back instinctively straightened.
Qin Qian, noticing her tension, quickly reached out to pat the back of her hand softly, whispering, "Don’t worry, both that guy and I will help you."
After saying that, she looked up and gave Yuan Shen a look. Understanding, he pushed Gu Ningyi to sit next to Dong Xin Yan on the sofa.
As soon as Gu Ningyi sat down, Dong Xin Yan suddenly felt that the originally spacious space somehow became cramped.
