Chapter 466: Chapter 466: Fiery Spoiled Girl VS ‘Affectionate’ Best Friend (Part 25) Chapter 466: Chapter 466: Fiery Spoiled Girl VS ‘Affectionate’ Best Friend (Part 25) Upon hearing Gu Shengyin’s cultured voice, the woman subconsciously shifted her gaze towards her.
The moment she saw Gu Shengyin, a flicker of amazement crossed her eyes: This girl was truly exquisite!
Women’s innate tendency to compare made her look at other outstanding females with the most critical gaze; however, she found herself reluctantly admitting that there was not a single flaw to pick on in this girl’s features.
Watching her intimate demeanor with He Junyan, and taking into account her young age, the woman quickly realized who she was.
She had originally intended to warmly greet Gu Shengyin, as it was said that He Junyan doted on this little princess tremendously.
However, a comment from He Junyan dissuaded her from doing so.
He Junyan almost defensively said, “The miss of Dingsheng Group, I have had business dealings with the president of Dingsheng Group.”
Without even the most basic introduction, his eyes were filled with the image of the girl across from him as he spoke, seemingly afraid that she might misunderstand something.
The woman’s mood suddenly soured, feeling that their previous encounter had been quite pleasant and could have potentially progressed further.
She had thought He Junyan was pleased with her, but today he clearly distanced himself from her, and there could be only one reason for it.
Her gaze shifted to Gu Shengyin.
Indeed, as the rumors suggested, she was exceptionally favored. Perhaps He Junyan was worried that the girl couldn’t accept such matters so suddenly?
The woman suddenly laughed, “This must be Qingqing, right? I’ve heard Junyan mention you before. Truly a beautiful little princess. I hope we can get along well in the future.”
Upon hearing this, He Junyan furrowed his brows. Since when had he and this woman become so familiar, even to the point of calling each other by name?
Considering his father was essentially his senior, He Junyan restrained himself from causing her to lose face.
Under these circumstances, it would be odd if Su Keqing didn’t think too much of it.
Gu Shengyin decided to show a bit of temper. Humph, who asked you to attract such unwanted suitors outside!
Her complexion quickly fell, and she looked directly at He Junyan, “Uncle He, what do you mean we should get along well in the future? Are you trying to find me an aunt? I don’t want one!”
The young girl’s face turned exceptionally sour, and He Junyan even saw that as she asked this question, her eyes had already begun to brim with tears.
He Junyan opened his mouth to respond, but the woman beside him seized the opportunity to speak, “My my, Qingqing, why are you being so unreasonable? Uncle He is of age too. He needs someone by his side who can care for him and knows his heart. Besides, wouldn’t it be nice to have another person who dotes on you?”
Gu Shengyin reacted by standing up and rushing outside.
By the time He Junyan reacted, she had already run off. He stood up to chase after her but saw that the other woman was still standing there.
“Miss Tang, I thought I made myself quite clear. I don’t think we’re suitable for each other. I hope in the future you will refrain from saying things that could easily cause misunderstandings,” he said coldly before chasing in the direction Gu Shengyin had run off.
The woman was left standing there gaping, speechless, and only after a long while did she stomp her feet in frustration and leave.
Gu Shengyin hadn’t run far – He Junyan saw her crouching in a corner as soon as he came out.
“Qingqing?” he approached her.
The girl stood up, revealing an expressionless face.
A pang hit He Junyan’s heart – Qingqing had cried and laughed in front of him before, but she had never shown such a deadened expression.
