Chapter 15 Good Friends
This was a thought that suddenly popped into Gu Jue's head after he discovered that Chu Xiang had blocked him. In fact, what he said made sense. Unless he could be like his older brother and make his own decisions about his life, even without Chu Xiang, he would still be arranged by his family to be with other women in the future.
Since Chu Xiang no longer has those feelings for him, it's better to let her occupy the position of his fiancée for now. In Gu Jue's view, this is entirely beneficial to both of them.
Chu Xiang found it amusing. "Instead of thinking about getting rid of me, you want me to cooperate with you. Aren't you afraid that I'll go after your lover again?"
Gu Jue frowned, unsure of his thoughts. After a while, he retorted, "Didn't you say you didn't like me? Then of course you have no reason to cause trouble for Su Ruanruan."
Chu Xiang crossed her arms. "As long as she doesn't bother me, of course I won't go looking for her."
Gu Jue said with a hint of pride, "Ruan Ruan is gentle and quiet. She is very obedient and would never cause trouble for no reason."
It seems that Gu Jue is very satisfied with finding Su Ruanruan as his lover.
Chu Xiang bypassed Gu Jue and walked to the door. She pressed her hand on the fingerprint lock, and the moment the door opened, she stepped inside and said perfunctorily, "I will carefully consider what you said."
Whether what she said is true or not, only she herself knows.
Just as the door was about to close, Gu Jue reached out and stopped it.
Chu Xiang asked warily, "What are you doing?"
Gu Jue's expression was very unnatural. He remained silent for a while before saying, "I'll let you stay in your guest room for a few days."
Chu Xiang looked at him with a "Are you sick?" look. "You, the dignified second young master of the Gu family, need to borrow my room to stay?"
Gu Jue, with her noble and aloof demeanor, said, "I have temporarily left my family and decided to earn money through my own hard work."
Chu Xiang: "Oh, you had a fight with your family, so you were kicked out."
Gu Jue said angrily, "What do you mean I was kicked out? I left on my own. I want my family to see that I can support myself even without their help."
If he could, Gu Jue certainly wouldn't have approached Chu Xiang. At the Gu family home, Gu Jue got carried away by Gu Heng's words and immediately pulled out all his bank cards, declaring that he could live well without relying on anyone else.
Gu Jue got carried away, and Chen Wanrou couldn't stop him no matter what she tried. After Gu Jue left the Gu family home without taking anything with him, she realized that she really hadn't taken anything except her phone, and it was impossible for her to go back.
He wanted to ask his cronies to take him in for a few days, but ever since the incident where he went to the police station, his cronies had all been given strict orders by their families not to mess around with Gu Jue.
Moreover, Gu Jue has always been a leader in the circle, so it would be a huge loss of face for him to ask his underlings to take him in.
Chu Xiang refused without hesitation, saying, "My place is too small to accommodate someone as important as you."
Gu Jue: "At least we just established a partnership, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Xiang was already getting impatient. She glanced at Gu Jue, and out of consideration for the fact that he had climbed trees to steal bird nests for her when they were children, she took out three hundred-yuan bills and put them in his hand. "Just find a hotel to stay in. Remember to pay me back later."
After he finished speaking, the door slammed shut with a "bang".
Holding the three hundred yuan in his hand, Gu Jue felt an indescribable emotion. He used to spend at least several thousand yuan on a bottle of wine when he went out, and this three hundred yuan wasn't even enough for him to have a meal.
But even a penny can stump a hero. He gritted his teeth, put his hands in his pockets, turned around, and left with the dashing gait of a young nobleman.
Judging from his appearance alone, who would guess that he is actually very "poor" now?
On the registration day, the campus of University A was very lively. Senior students waited at the gate to guide the new students, and students from the Journalism Department used professional cameras to find scenes worth shooting in order to collect materials for their future assignments.
Today, Chu Xiang wore a little white dress, her long, slightly wavy black hair cascading down her back, with only two small dark red hair clips adorning her ears. The various colors complemented her perfectly, making her look exceptionally youthful and vibrant.
When she appeared at the school gate, she immediately caught the eye of many people. In fact, both boys and girls like to see beautiful things, and girls are no less interested in admiring beautiful women than boys.
One of the boys was the fastest. He reached Chu Xiang and greeted her warmly, "Hello, junior! You must be a freshman this year. Where are you going to register? I'll show you the way..."
A girl's voice came from the side, "Oh my, isn't this Xiangxiang?"
Chu Xiang looked over and smiled with delight, "July, it's been a long time."
She was a bright and beautiful girl. A red short skirt accentuated her tall and slender figure, especially her long and straight legs, which were particularly eye-catching. She had dressed up carefully, and every accessory she wore was meticulously matched. When she smiled, she was radiant with sunshine.
Unexpectedly, two stunning beauties joined the freshmen this year, and many people around immediately started gossiping about who would win the title of school beauty.
The boy tried to get closer to her, but the girl in the red dress pushed him away.
The girl enthusiastically took Chu Xiang's hand and said innocently, "It's been a whole summer vacation since we last met, Xiangxiang. You look much better! Your face is so chubby and you look so much cuter."
Chu Xiang smiled and said, "July, you are too, even more beautiful. By the way, is that dress you're wearing this year's summer limited edition from D brand? The size M fits you perfectly."
Meng Qiyue's smile widened, "Xiangxiang, you're mistaken. I always wear XS clothes; I can't even fill out M size clothes."
Chu Xiang tilted her head shyly. "I'm sorry, during the pre-college entrance exam physical, when I saw your weight, I thought... Ah, what am I saying?"
Meng Qiyue's eyelids twitched.
Chu Xiang felt annoyed that she had spoken without thinking. She looked at Meng Qiyue apologetically, "I'm sorry, Qiyue, I absolutely did not mean to say that you are fatter than me. Don't misunderstand. You know that you are my best friend. Qiyue, please don't hate me."
Meng Qiyue smiled brightly and said generously, "What are you saying, Xiangxiang? You are my best friend. I will never misunderstand you or dislike you. We have made a promise to go to the same university and to remain good friends when we are old."
Chu Xiang was moved. "July, you are so kind."
One of the guys who had been watching this couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, pretty girls always become friends with other pretty girls. They seem to have a really good relationship. I wonder if they have boyfriends yet."
Both girls are beautiful in their own way, it's really hard to choose which one to pick.
One of the girls glanced at the boy who was sighing and said, "What do you know about the relationships between girls?"
In just a few words, they had already gone back and forth, how could these ordinary men who only had eyes for beautiful women see that?
