She, a powerful ancient martial arts master, woke up to find herself transmigrated into a Mary Sue novel, becoming a cannon fodder female supporting character. She was merely a stepping stone for t...
Finally, Gu Qingqing also selected five ties that Gu En liked and that suited him, making him so happy that he immediately asked her to tie them for him, even though he wasn't wearing a suit.
She also picked out five ties for Gu Mu, since Gu En wanted them all, she shouldn't leave out Gu Mu's.
After all, he's very jealous. If he finds out that they both received gifts from her but he didn't, he'll cause a huge uproar.
Fu Jue remained silent, a faint, somewhat disappointed and sad smile playing on his lips.
His eyes were fixed on her, and he also wanted the ties she had chosen.
Gu Qingqing sensed his unusual behavior. She thought of the three brothers, Gu Jin, Gu En, and Gu Mu, who all had ribbons she had given them, but he didn't. How painful that must be for him.
"Mr. Fu, I..." She was about to speak when a sales assistant came over.
"Ms. Gu, we have a promotion today. I forgot to tell you, it's buy one get one free on ties. If you choose fifteen, and then choose five more, you can pay only half price."
"Buy one get one free?" Is there really such a good deal?
Even though this one strap costs several thousand yuan, or even more.
It was great value for money at the time, not only because it was designed by a famous fashion designer, but also because it was purely handmade.
Gu Qingqing was a little surprised. Why didn't they tell her about the promotion earlier? It felt a bit strange to her.
"Master Fu, how about I pick out five more for you?" Gu Qingqing now had an excuse.
After all, he wasn't her biological brother. Giving a man of the opposite sex a ribbon had a lot of implications, and she was afraid he would misunderstand, and also afraid that outsiders would misunderstand that there was something between her and him.
Fu Jue pursed his lips and remained silent. Was it a buy-one-get-one-free promotion?
Is giving her own tie a gift?
This made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"Mr. Fu, don't misunderstand. Even without this buy-one-get-one-free promotion, I was just thinking of giving you a tie. After all, my second and third brothers already have them, how could I leave you out?"
Gu Qingqing was afraid he would misunderstand, so she quickly explained.
The anxious look was like that of a kitten that saw its owner was unhappy, gently scratching its owner's clothes with its little paws, raising its head and blinking its big, wet eyes.
If you don't hold the kitten, it will cry in front of you.
"Yes, thank you, Qingqing." Just because of her few words, Fu Jue's mood instantly changed from gloomy to sunny.
Seeing that he was happy, she smiled too.
It's all that sales assistant's fault; she almost made him misunderstand me.
Misunderstandings and conflicts can be troublesome; once they leave a lingering resentment, it can make you uncomfortable for the rest of your life.
Gu En muttered discontentedly, "Buy one get one free is already letting him off easy."
Gu Qingqing: "Third brother! If you say another word, I'll zip your mouth up."
Gu En glared at Fu Jue: "Hmph!"
Little did anyone know that Assistant Yin, who almost did more harm than good, had just returned to Grandpa Fu's side, telling the old man about his methods and efforts, and taking credit for his work.
"Good job, I'll give you a promotion and a raise when we get back."
Grandpa Fu secretly watched Fu Jue and Gu Qingqing not far away. He was happy to see her choosing a ribbon for his precious grandson, the two of them standing very close to each other, chatting and laughing.
"Let's go out first." Let's not disturb the two young people.
However, we need to get her two older brothers away later.
Otherwise, her grandson wouldn't be able to stand by her side all the time. With two eyesores between them, how can they talk about feelings?
Therefore, we must find something to do.
"Okay, sir." Assistant Yin was still happily helping Mr. Fu leave, thinking that the old man was tired and wanted to go home.
Gu Qingqing was choosing ribbons with Fu Jue.
Gu En and Gu Jin got tired of standing, so they sat back down in the VIP area to rest.
Several young sales assistants surrounded them, offering words of comfort and concern.
"How about this one? Mr. Fu, I think it suits you quite well. It's dark green with silver highlights in the pattern." Gu Qingqing carefully selected a dark green ribbon from hundreds of ribbons, which she liked very much.
Fu Jue looked at it carefully for three seconds, then his thin lips curled up slightly. "It's very beautiful, I like it very much. Thank you, Qingqing."
The ribbon she chose was indeed quite nice, matching his aesthetic sense and temperament; he liked it very much.
It turns out she understood him.
"Yes, I'm glad you like it, Mr. Fu." Gu Qingqing smiled foolishly, and when she met his deep and beautiful blue eyes, her heart skipped a beat.
He's really good-looking.
There is no man in the world more handsome than him, no, not even among women.
When the two people look into each other's eyes, they are intertwined, each other's presence felt.
His burning gaze ignited her once calm and indifferent heart.
Suddenly, his heart began to pound violently.
Suddenly, her face turned bright red to her ears, and her heart pounded like a drum.
She stood on tiptoe and tied the tie around his neck.
The movements were extremely gentle.
"Qingqing..." Fu Jue looked down at her, staring into her beautiful amber eyes.
He saw her shyness in her eyes.
He never expected her to help him tie his tie, and in such an intimate way, so close that he could feel her breath tickling his chin and neck.
But it smelled so good that it made him very happy.
Fu Jue took the opportunity to lower his head even further, getting very close to her, so close that their noses almost touched and their cheeks were touching.
"Master Fu..." The close contact made Gu Qingqing blush and her heart race. She lowered her head shyly, determined not to let him see her face, which would surely be as red as a persimmon. That would be so ugly and embarrassing.
She doesn't like... him at all.
What if he misunderstands?
She wasn't infatuated with him.
