Chapter 24 We're Not Familiar



Gu Sinian disliked Qiao Xiyan very much and didn't give her a kind look at all. His face was as sour as Bao Gong's.

Qiao Xiyan cursed inwardly why she hadn't been reborn earlier, so she wouldn't have to face this awkward situation now.

No matter what, she has to appease Gu Sinian, otherwise her trip to the countryside will be meaningless.

She's a master at appeasing men. In her past life, Huo Zheng had a bad temper, and she was the one who always appeased him. If she could handle someone as difficult as Huo Zheng, how could she not appease Gu Sinian now?

There's no turning back now. There's no place for her in Beijing. She can't go back. Gu Sinian is her only lifeline. Only by holding onto Gu Sinian can she become a high-ranking official's wife and hold her head high in front of the Qiao family.

She was determined to live better than anyone in the Qiao family, so that they would look up to her.

Her only support now is Gu Sinian. If he abandons her, she really can't go on living.

Knowing that she had gone to the countryside only to fulfill her marriage agreement with Gu Sinian, her parents were afraid that she would be implicated and that the Qiao family would be affected. So they wrote a letter of severance overnight and published it in the newspaper.

Fearing she would become dependent on the Qiao family, she had nowhere to go, and Gu Sinian was the only support she could hold onto in this life.

Now that she's already here, how could she possibly give up the man who loved her most in her past life?

Once she gets through this difficult period, better days await her in the future.

Gu Sinian was just angry. He was angry that she had distanced herself from the Gu family when it was at its most difficult time, and then turned around and got engaged to Huo Zheng through a blind date.

He loves her so much, he will definitely forgive her, he's just too proud to admit it right now.

She'd do anything as long as Gu Sinian could calm down.

She cautiously reached out and took Gu Sinian's arm, but Gu Sinian glared at her and forcefully shook off her hand.

"Comrade Qiao, please have some self-respect and don't lay a hand on me, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Qiao Xiyan looked aggrieved, as if she was about to cry, while Gu Sinian sighed helplessly.

"Don't try to act all innocent like Lin Daiyu in front of me, I'm not buying it."

Qiao Xiyan, who had just begun to build up some emotion, was completely extinguished by a bucket of cold water.

"Si Nian, how could you say that to me? I gave up everything I have now for you."

Gu Sinian looked helpless again, rubbing his temples with his index finger. "Everything you're willing to give up means that what you're letting go of isn't anything good."

Qiao Xiyan choked, thinking to herself, "You really see things clearly."

“Si Nian, I know you still have feelings for me. I came here to find you this time and I didn’t plan to go back. Please forgive me this time. I promise I will treat you well from now on and never do anything to hurt you again.”

Qiao Xiyan muttered a lot, but Gu Sinian didn't react at all. His face remained expressionless, which made Qiao Xiyan very anxious.

"Si Nian, Si Nian." Shaking Gu Si Nian's arm, seeing that he didn't react at all, she was curious about what he was looking at.

So fascinated?

He even selectively ignored her calling him.

Qiao Xiyan followed Gu Sinian's gaze.

Only then did I realize what those two grown men were looking at.

What a beautiful girl! Not only is she pretty with fair and rosy skin, but she also has great taste in clothing and a special kind of elegance, just like a movie star from Hong Kong.

She rolled her eyes at the two men, glancing back and forth between them, and thought to herself, "Tch, all men are the same, lecherous fools, they all like pretty girls."

Unexpectedly, Gu Sinian also couldn't escape the vulgarity and superficiality of men; he simply liked pretty women.

It's just a man's nature; he can't be bothered with so much.

However, Gu Sinian surprised her greatly today. She had thought he was cold and indifferent to women, but she never expected that he would be so stunned.

She's beautiful, but beautiful women are often brainless. Besides her pretty face, what else can compare to her?

Beautiful women have a short lifespan, but interesting souls last the longest.

Aunt Gu once said that her personality was the perfect match for Gu Sinian.

Although I admit she is very beautiful, just like someone who came out of a Hong Kong movie magazine.

I have no idea who she is, but she has two bodyguards on her left and right, and she has quite a bit of luggage, two large suitcases, acting like a young lady from a wealthy family.

In such a sensitive time, doing things in such an unconventional way is just asking for trouble, isn't it?

"Who is she, making such a big show of herself? If you didn't know better, you'd think she was some capitalist's daughter going out. Isn't she afraid that someone will find something wrong with her and send her to the cowshed for reform?"

Gu Sinian could no longer contain himself. He clenched his fists tightly at his sides, veins bulging, showing that he was on the verge of exploding.

She couldn't stand anyone saying a bad word about Su Ying. Her background wasn't something she could choose. Besides, what's wrong with being a capitalist's daughter? She was just a product of her time.

Su Ying was just a scapegoat. She had already gone to the countryside according to the policy from above, yet some people still brought up her identity, which was simply outrageous.

Given the current chaotic situation, staying in the countryside is the safest option.

He forcefully shook off the arm that was holding him. "If you can't speak properly, then shut up. I don't mind if you become mute in front of me from now on. My identity is more sensitive than that of a capitalist's daughter. Comrade Qiao, you'd better stay away from me to avoid getting tainted by my bad luck."

Qiao Xiyan panicked. She hadn't meant it that way at all; how could Gu Sinian misunderstand her like that?

She hasn't even asked Gu Sinian for forgiveness yet, and her foul mouth has said something wrong again. When will they be able to make up?

no.

This shouldn't be how things are between them. In their past life, Gu Sinian remained unmarried and lived a lonely life for her sake. How could he treat her like this now that she's come into his life? This is something she can't accept.
