Chapter 555: Isn’t it just that I was young and ignorant and met a scumbag?
After dinner, Gu Siqing went back to her room to continue typing on the keyboard. She forgot the time until the cell phone next to her rang, and her thoughts were drawn out.
I looked at the time and it was past ten o'clock. My hands and neck felt a little sore. I picked up the phone and heard Han Zhengping's voice coming from inside, "Are you asleep?"
Gu Siqing stood up and twisted her stiff neck and said, "No, it will probably be very late tonight. I have started writing my novel."
Han Zhengping didn't tell her to get some rest. He knew writing, like experimenting, was unstoppable. He told her not to get too worked up and hung up, fearing to disturb her.
Gu Siqing poured herself a cup of tea and walked around the room while drinking it, loosening up some of her stiff muscles. Then she sat down again and continued writing until after two o'clock. When she woke up the next day, it was already past ten o'clock.
After a quick bite, he remembered what Xia Ying had told him: Qu Anyi and Zhou Guoyuan had broken up, so he called Qu Anyi to have lunch together.
When they met, Qu Anyi was wearing a red down jacket, a high ponytail, and a big smile on her face. Although she was much thinner than before, she looked quite energetic overall, which made her feel relieved.
After sitting down and ordering, Qu Anyi took the initiative to say, "Have you heard?"
Gu Siqing hummed, and Qu Anyi smiled, but this time it was a bit forced. She said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that I'm too embarrassed to tell you. I did everything, but I still couldn't keep you."
Gu Siqing handed her a tissue and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just that you were young and ignorant and met a scumbag."
Qu Anyi took the tissue and wiped her tears, then smiled again, "I'm fine, but sometimes I feel sad when I think about it, but it will be fine after a while."
"Only after going through thousands of hardships can you have a flourishing life," Gu Siqing patted Qu Anyi's shoulder and said, "Sister, after going through this scumbag, you are one step closer to a flourishing life."
Qu Anyi was amused by what she said, "Then I'll borrow your good wishes."
After that, the two of them didn't mention Zhou Guoyuan again. They ate and talked happily. After dinner, Gu Siqing went to the film and television company. As luck would have it, she met Zhou Guoyuan in Xia Ying's office.
She didn't want to see this person or talk to him now, so she turned and went to another office.
Qu Anyi said that they broke up very peacefully, without quarreling or blaming each other. After all, they had loved each other, so they wanted to save some face for each other when they parted.
Therefore, when Gu Siqing saw Zhou Guoyuan now, she would not say anything accusing him. However, it was impossible for her to treat him well. But Zhou Guoyuan insisted on following her.
"Director Zhou, is there anything I can help you with?" Gu Siqing asked politely.
Zhou Guoyuan sat down in front of her, was silent for a moment, and then said, "I'm preparing a movie and want An Yi to be the heroine. I told her, but she refused. You should persuade her that love is love and career is career, and don't let love affect her career."
"I understand. I'll tell her. As for how she chooses, that's her business," Gu Siqing said. Qu Anyi has grown a lot now. She's not the little girl she used to be. If she refuses, she must have her reasons. Gu Siqing doesn't want to interfere too much.
Zhou Guoyuan had nothing more to say and got up to leave. Gu Siqing called Qu Anyi to tell her about this, and Qu Anyi said she knew about it. Gu Siqing guessed that she might still not accept this role, even though it was very important to her.
Emotional pain is not something you can get over easily; you have to take it slowly.
She went to Xia Ying's office again. As soon as she sat down, Xia Ying told her about the company's current development as if she was reporting on her work. In her words, since you are a shareholder, you can't be ignorant of everything about the company.
Gu Siqing had no choice but to listen patiently. Seeing this, Xia Ying said, "This is a partnership between you and me. If someone else did this, they would definitely be cheated."
Gu Siqing: "I won't partner with anyone else!"
The two chatted for a while, and then Gu Siqing went home to continue writing her novel. A few days later, Fang Zhen, the man that Gu Yimin had introduced to Xia Ying, completed his mission and was ready for a blind date.
The Xia family took this matter very seriously. In fact, they had already inquired about Fang Zhen's situation. His family was simple, and the young man was young and promising. Although he was three years younger than Xia Ying, it was nothing.
Xia Ying acted indifferent and said to Old Lady Xia and Feng Hailan, "Do you want to come too?"
Old Lady Xia and Feng Hailan wanted to follow, but it would be bad if others knew about it. However, they were afraid that Xia Ying was fooling them, so they let Gu Siqing follow.
"How can I follow you? No, no." Gu Siqing quickly refused.
Mrs. Xia said, "I'm not asking you to come along. You and Zhengping should also go to the restaurant where they had their blind date and have dinner. Just watch from afar."
Gu Siqing looked at Xia Ying, who spread her hands to indicate that she didn't care. Seeing this, Gu Siqing had no choice but to agree. After the matter was settled, she called Han Zhengping and asked to have lunch together, and then went to Zhang's house. She hadn't seen Pangpang for several days and missed him.
When they arrived at Zhang's house, Zhang Zijun and Gu Erhui were both there. The fat boy was sitting on a thick blanket playing with building blocks. Gu Siqing came over and started building blocks with him while telling Gu Erhui about Xia Ying's blind date. Zhang Zijun also sighed that Xia Ying had finally agreed to the blind date.
Around eleven o'clock, Han Zhengping came over, and the two went to the restaurant where Xia Ying was going on a blind date. Thinking of what happened between Xia Ying and Zhang Ziyao, Gu Siqing sighed deeply, "Life is impermanent, and things in the world are impermanent!"
"Why do you suddenly sigh like this?" Han Zhengping asked her.
"I just sighed suddenly." Gu Siqing said
Xia Ying didn't want anyone to know what happened between her and Zhang Ziyao, so she couldn't tell anyone, not even Han Zhengping.
"How's your book going?" Han Zhengping asked about her book without paying any attention. Because she was working hard on her book, they had very little time to spend together.
"I have written more than 20,000 words. I plan to serialize it in a magazine after writing 200,000 words." Gu Siqing said.
As they were talking, they arrived at the restaurant. Xia Ying and Fang Zhen were already there. They found a seat not too far from them and sat down. Gu Siqing smiled and said, "I feel like a spy."
Han Zhengping: "Then I am covering for you."
The two chatted and ordered food, but just as the food arrived, Gu Siqing saw Zhang Ziyao approaching from a distance, his face full of anxiety. Seeing Xia Ying, he strode over, but to get to Xia Ying's table, he had to pass by Gu Siqing's table.
Gu Siqing quickly grabbed him and said, "Brother Zhang, are you coming to eat too?"
Zhang Ziyao turned around and saw that it was Gu Siqing, and said hurriedly: "I have something to ask your sister."
He was about to go over again, but Gu Siqing held him tightly and whispered, "Brother Zhang, I know about you and Sister Ying. She's on a blind date, and it would be embarrassing for everyone if you went over now. If you have anything to do, wait until her blind date is over. Besides, you don't need a moment, right?"
We hadn't contacted each other for so many days, but now you're rushing over.
