Chapter 89 Chapter □□ Truth or Dare Tour...
Du Yanting did not force it. He just wanted to express his attitude in front of the audience.
Let them know that he and Qiao Wanshu have completely broken up.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Qiao Wanshu lowered her eyelashes. Unprecedented anger made her want to rush out of the kitchen without looking back, but she knew that the more frustrated she appeared, the more ridicule she would attract.
She can't act on impulse anymore.
Xu Qinghu noticed her clenched fists and wondered if she couldn't bear it just like that. But the pain she felt wasn't even a ten-thousandth of what she felt in the novel.
If she wanted to use her as a stepping stone, she would have to pay the price for her choice.
This is just the beginning.
She returned to the restaurant with the soy milk. You Zhi looked at her worriedly, obviously knowing what happened last night. He asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
Xu Qinghu smiled at him and said, "Don't worry about me."
Thinking of those trending searches, You Zhi pursed his lips. "Don't worry about the negative comments. I know they're all nonsense."
Xu Qinghu laughed and said, "Thank you for standing by my side."
Seeing her bright smile, not at all affected by public opinion, You Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "If you need any help, you can always come to me. I will help you."
"Okay." Xu Qinghu gave him a deep look and was about to ask if he had time this afternoon when Wu Xuan's voice came from across the table, "I want some soy milk."
Xu Qinghu looked back at him. He was wearing a white shirt and looking at her and You Zhi with a light gaze, obviously not wanting them to come into contact.
In the small house, You Zhi was the one closest to his age and had a very likable personality, making him feel more like a formidable enemy than He Shengnian.
He didn't want to give him any chance.
You Zhi didn't notice the hostility in Wu Xuan's eyes and thought he really wanted to drink soy milk, so he immediately said, "I'll go to the kitchen to get a cup."
After saying that, he turned and went into the kitchen.
Xu Qinghu narrowed his eyes and stared at Wu Xuan. He turned his head away with an innocent look on his face.
“…”
"Hulu, are you free on Thursday?" Gu Jingchen suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Xu Qinghu's mouth curled up immediately, and he said with a smile: "Yes, what can I do for you?"
Looking at her beautiful face, Gu Jingchen was silent for a few seconds and said, "I told you before about the fashion show I was preparing. Didn't you want to go to it? The show will be open to the public this Wednesday. If you have time, I can arrange the best seat for you."
His few simple words conveyed a lot of information.
For example, he and Xu Qinghu had been alone together when no one knew about it, and with so many people in the cabin, he only asked Xu Qinghu if he wanted to go to the fashion show. Such behavior was too biased.
"What fashion show?" Zhong Zining asked sourly, "Why did you invite her and not us? Aren't you too partial?"
"That's right," Ruan Xiaoyu also stared at Gu Jingchen and said in a faint voice, "Teacher Gu, you can't be partial to one and ignore the other."
Gu Jingchen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he heard this: "If anyone is interested, you can come to the exhibition. I will arrange tickets for you."
"Sure." His suggestion was immediately supported by the female guest in the room, "You need a good spot like the gourd."
"Of course." Gu Jingchen smiled, his eyes still looking at Xu Qinghu.
Xu Qinghu smiled and said, "I'll go over and cheer you on when the time comes."
Gu Jingchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the fashion show was a good opportunity for interaction. Since he wanted to change direction, he had to create opportunities for himself and Xu Qinghu so as to maintain high popularity.
Having said that, he also specifically expressed his concern for Xu Qinghu and told her not to let public opinion affect her mood.
Xu Qinghu responded politely, but his attitude towards him was not warm.
[Something feels weird.]
[Isn't Gu Jingchen interested in Xu Qinghu? Why is she the first person to be invited?]
[It must have been during that conversation, they talked about Gu Jingchen's work.]
[But the person he invited first should be Qiao Wanshu. Wouldn't he want to change his mind? No.]
[I smell something bad. If this is the case, Qiao Wanshu will be the most embarrassed person in the room. I can't imagine how exciting the next heart-warming text message will be.]
[Gu Jingchen already had a rift with Qiao Wanshu at the ski resort, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to turn around and contact Xu Qinghu. Why are you so surprised?]
[No problem? I think he changed his mind because he knew Qiao Wanshu's family was going bankrupt. Is there anyone who would teach a man this fickle?]
[+1, don't be so rude! If he dares to turn around, he'll be scolded!]
There was great silence at the table during breakfast.
Qiao Wanshu lowered his head. Although his expression was calm, the low pressure all over his body could not be ignored.
Zhong Zining wanted to talk to her, but she didn't know what to say.
After dinner, Xu Qinghu went upstairs to change his clothes and planned to take the subway to the company.
When she reached the garden gate, she found He Shengnian standing by the car, looking at her quietly, "I'll take you there."
Xu Qinghu was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and said softly, "Okay."
Her thoughts immediately changed with the change of the inviter.
Seeing her getting closer and closer to him, He Shengnian raised his hand to open the passenger door. After Xu Qinghu got in, he turned and went to the other side.
The two of them quickly drove away from the cabin.
At that time, Du Yanting was washing dishes in the kitchen. He happened to see their interaction. The corners of his mouth immediately curled up, but there was not much smile in his eyes.
[Hulu still likes Mr. He the most. Even if others try to show their affection, she remains indifferent.]
[Du Yanting: After rejecting me, you turned around and got into Mr. He's car, right?]
[Hahaha, Hulu is really hypocritical.]
Du Yanting doesn't think that if he changes his mind now, Xu Qinghu will contact him, right? Don't be so self-indulgent.
After getting in the car, Xu Qinghu took the initiative to bring up the public opinion storm last night. "Fortunately, everyone believes in me, otherwise I would definitely be at a loss now."
"You handled it very well," He Shengnian said, "and the evidence you provided in response was also very thorough."
The development of the situation had an extremely bad impact on Xu Qinghu. He was even prepared for her to ask him for help. Unexpectedly, Xu Qinghu handled it with ease under the arrangement of the program team, as if she had been looking forward to facing this storm.
Why did she always carry those old evidences with her? It was obvious that she had calculated that this day would come.
He heard clearly what she said in front of the camera and knew she was not lying, but seeing her calm and composed appearance, he gradually realized that he didn't know Xu Qinghu that well.
She was always happy in front of him. Whenever he looked at her, there was a smile in her eyes, as if she only paid attention to him.
But the other side of Xu Qinghu was far away from him.
"Because I'm afraid of being misunderstood," Xu Qinghu continued, "I'm afraid of disappointing my fans, and I don't want the rumormongers to get away with it."
He Shengnian stopped the car at a red light and glanced at her sideways. "There's nothing wrong with what you did."
After hearing this, Xu Qinghu was silent for a few seconds before he whispered, "I thought you were in a bad mood today and wouldn't send me to work."
Her tone was calm, but it carried a sense of grievance that could not be ignored.
She was too sensitive, and this sensitivity allowed her to instantly detect He Shengnian's emotional changes.
He became a little cold towards her.
Xu Qinghu wasn't sure what the reason was, but she had to solve the problem.
"Do you have any other ideas?" After a brief silence, she looked into He Shengnian's eyes. Her gaze was as bright as a clear mirror, and any changes in him were visible to her.
Her emotional frankness contrasted sharply with his deep and reserved nature.
He Shengnian's eyes changed slightly. This question was beyond his expectations. He didn't know why Xu Qinghu had such an idea, but his mood suddenly relaxed. He said slowly: "If I changed, would I still take the initiative to send you to work?"
Xu Qinghu gradually relaxed his breath and whispered, "I thought you cared a lot about public opinion, so..."
"I don't care about public opinion," He Shengnian said, looking at her delicate features. "I'm just thinking, I don't seem to understand you as well as I thought."
"What do you want to know about me?" Xu Qinghu raised his head and looked into his deep eyes. "You can ask me directly."
The scene he saw last night emerged in He Shengnian's mind. He wanted to ask her if she was alone with Wu Xuan on the rooftop and what she thought of Wu Xuan.
But at this moment, it is clearly inappropriate.
He slowly said: "Will you lie to me?"
Xu Qinghu's pupils shrank slightly. This question was obviously beyond her expectations.
"What does it mean to lie to you?" Xu Qinghu asked instead, "Is having your own secret also considered lying?"
She tilted her head and looked at He Shengnian, "If that's the case, I can't guarantee that I will be completely honest with you."
Everyone has things they want to hide. If He Shengnian has a crisis of trust in her, he can't get away with it by deliberately trying to please her.
When she faced him, she not only provided emotional value, but also faced his doubts and gave her most authentic response.
"It's not a secret," He Shengnian looked into her eyes, "it's just a change in your thinking."
Xu Qinghu immediately understood, and a smile appeared in his eyes again, "Are you jealous?"
He Shengnian's body stiffened, and he subconsciously wanted to refute her and tell her not to be unreasonable. Xu Qinghu said, "No matter how many people like me, the person I care about most right now is you."
Hearing this, the dark cloud in He Shengnian's heart gradually dissipated, and he subconsciously said: "What about the future?"
From now on, will he still be the person you care about the most?
"That depends on your performance," Xu Qinghu snorted softly, "If you treat me badly, I will withdraw my feelings."
He Shengnian immediately said: "You are not allowed to take it back."
Xu Qinghu couldn't help laughing, "Then you have to perform well."
The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly eased.
He Shengnian sent Xu Qinghu downstairs to the company and said, "I'll come pick you up after get off work tonight."
"Okay." Xu Qinghu said, "Send me a message when you come."
He Shengnian nodded, looking at her glittering figure in the sunlight. Although he still had doubts about her and Wu Xuan, she easily comforted him, "If you encounter any problems in the future, come to me for help first."
He looked into Xu Qinghu's eyes and said, "Don't look for anyone else."
Hearing this, Xu Qinghu vaguely sensed something and blinked his eyes and said, "Who else can I look for besides you?"
Although he knew that she said this on purpose to comfort him, He Shengnian still felt comforted and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I'm going to work first." Xu Qinghu waved to him, stepped on the sunlight on the ground, and trotted into the office building.
He Shengnian's car stopped downstairs for a moment. He didn't mind that Xu Qinghu had secrets, nor did he mind how many suitors she had. What he cared about was her state when facing him.
He hopes that there will be no secrets and mutual trust.
But Xu Qinghu seemed to be hiding another side that no one knew about. This feeling of being out of control made him feel uncomfortable and even wary.
But his affection for Xu Qinghu grew day by day, and he didn't want to reject this feeling easily.
He will give himself time, and also give Xu Qinghu time, until they become more and more compatible.
Xu Qinghu walked into the office, thinking about what happened yesterday, and immediately guessed what He Shengnian was worried about.
She lowered her eyelashes, thinking that he was indeed the hero in the novel. Even with his personality, his reaction speed was extremely sharp.
When they returned to the cabin in the evening, Ruan Xiaoyu suggested playing Truth or Dare after dinner.
"I've been wanting to play this game for a long time. Don't refuse me this time."
She has basically given up on any contact with the male guests, and spends the rest of her time making herself happy and making the show as exciting as possible.
“…”
"Sure," Zhong Zining said, "I want to play this game too."
She glanced at Wu Xuan and the others, and it was obvious that she had already decided who to deal with.
After dinner, the production team prepared ten playing cards and a truth or dare lottery box.
The guest who gets the clown card can designate another guest on the spot to complete the truth or dare game.
Only the opposite sex can be specified.
Ten people sat around the table.
The lights in the living room dimmed, and with the addition of more dynamic music, a gaming atmosphere naturally emerged.
Ruan Xiaoyu took the playing cards, shuffled them several times, and dealt one card in front of each person.
She couldn't wait to turn over her cards, and when she found out it wasn't a Joker, she immediately looked disappointed.
Everyone looked at each other and asked, "Who got the Joker card?"
"It's me." Qiao Wanshu whispered.
Everyone looked at her. She raised her eyes and fixed them precisely on He Shengnian. "I'll punish Mr. He."
Although her situation in the cabin was already very embarrassing, she still did not forget to conquer He Shengnian.
Although the atmosphere was a little awkward, no one spoiled the fun. Instead, they asked her, "Do you want Mr. He to play truth or dare?"
"Tell me the truth." Qiao Wanshu didn't want He Shengnian to take any risks, because the production team would definitely stuff some notes about intimate actions into the box.
She didn't want to see He Shengnian interacting with other people.
He Shengnian didn't say anything. He stood up and took out a piece of paper from the box containing the true feelings. "You've been in the cabin for a long time. Have you decided on your ideal guest?"
He read out the question in a low voice, then his eyes fell on Xu Qinghu and he said without hesitation, "Confirmed."
"Wow!" Ruan Xiaoyu almost jumped up from the ground with joy, "Boss He is awesome!"
She looked at him and Xu Qinghu with a smile, wishing she could lock them both up.
Xu Qinghu: "..."
The game continued. This time, the person who got the Joker card was He Shengnian. He raised an eyebrow and looked at Xu Qinghu and said, "Punish the gourd and tell the truth."
Xu Qinghu stood up and pulled out a slip of paper. It read: "Before coming to the show, have you ever loved anyone else unconditionally?"
