Chapter 466: Is it a trick of playing hard to get?
Originally, Su Man had an appointment to meet the cousin of a former student at her school.
They also come from an artistic family. The other party is a painter in an independent studio and has his own unique insights into art and philosophy.
When they were online, Suman had quite a lot to talk about with the other party.
Su Man was also eager and excited about this meeting.
Finally, the two sides agreed to meet at a gallery.
The gallery is currently holding an exhibition of paintings by a famous painter from Country F. If you have the chance, you may even be lucky enough to meet the painter himself and get his autograph.
7pm, outside the gallery.
Su Man wore a simple and plain dress, with her long hair half tied up, and pinned up with a carved sandalwood hairpin, which was quite artistic and in line with the mood of the exhibition.
She stood outside the gallery, like a lotus in a valley, isolated from the world and graceful in the wind.
People who came to see the exhibition kept looking back when passing by Su Man, and then they all expressed their admiration that they had seen an exquisite "painting" before even entering the gallery.
Suman glanced at her watch.
Seven fifteen.
A quarter of an hour had passed the appointed time.
The other party hasn't arrived yet.
Just as Su Man was wondering if people who engage in artistic creation tend to have more free-spirited personalities, the other party sent a message:
[Sorry, I'm stuck in traffic, so it might take a while to get there. To get your money's worth, you can go to the exhibition hall first and look at the paintings while you wait for me. When I arrive, you can introduce these paintings to me (smiley face)]
Su Man didn't think much about it, so she checked her ticket and entered the exhibition hall.
Ten minutes later, the other side sent a message:
[I'm almost there. Where are you? I'll come straight to you.]
Su Man took a photo and replied: [I'm in Hall 6, in front of a painting called "Bloody Mandala."]
Painter: [Okay, just stand there and don't move. I'll come find you.]
Suman was the only one standing in front of the painting.
If the other party came, Suman and he would be able to recognize each other quickly.
While waiting, Su Man carefully admired this "bloody mandala".
Not long after, a series of footsteps sounded from behind Suman.
As they got closer, the man called out, "Manman."
Su Man was shocked.
This voice...
Su Man turned around suddenly and found that it was indeed correct.
Gu Ziheng was standing behind her, only two or three steps away.
"You...are here to see the art exhibition too?" Su Man's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly thought of an excuse to sneak away.
But Gu Ziheng said, "The person you met won't come, I came here for him."
"What?" Su Man was slightly surprised.
"He's not coming to have a blind date with you. I'm the one going on a blind date with you tonight." Gu Ziheng tugged at the front of his suit vest a little awkwardly.
He really dressed up carefully.
Suman looked left and right.
There has never been a time when she hoped more than now that Xiao Beisheng would follow her secretly again.
Gu Ziheng asked: "Who are you looking for? Bei Sheng? He is with Sister Luo Yan now and will not come here."
Su Man's heart felt like it was immersed in an ice bucket, so cold.
Gu Ziheng continued to express his sincerity: "Manman, don't be afraid, I have changed and will never hurt you again like before."
As he spoke, he took two steps closer to Suman.
Su Man instinctively turned around and left.
Gu Ziheng was tall and had long legs. He caught up with Su Man in a few steps and held her hand.
He was a little cautious, "Manman, I'm serious about going on a blind date with you. Just give me a chance and we can get to know each other again."
Seeing that she couldn't escape, Su Man calmed herself down.
Sanity returned to the line.
She asked, "I had an appointment with someone else, why are you here? Was this your plan from the beginning?"
"No," he argued hastily, "I bribed that guy. He promised me that if I could go on a blind date with you on his behalf tonight, our Gu Group would give his studio an order."
Su Man understood.
She was sold.
Damn it, I promised to dedicate myself to art.
It turns out that it was not the other party who devoted himself to art, but Su Man who was asked to devote herself to art.
Su Man's cunning eyes turned slightly and asked, "Then how did you know that I had contact with him and made an appointment to meet him today? What a coincidence..."
Gu Ziheng couldn't possibly have such intelligence, he must have a military advisor.
"How did you know who I was going to meet today? Who taught you?"
"No one taught me." Gu Ziheng looked serious and upright.
He has a good appearance and a ruffian air, looking very much like the shrewd and clever arsonist in Hong Kong dramas.
It was as if with a curl of his lips, he would come up with some earth-shattering idea, and make a woman cry for him until dawn.
But after years of dating him, Su Man had already seen through him inside and out. Gu Ziheng was just a fool with a stupid head who acted rashly.
That cunning look is all fake.
"Let me think about it. The friends around you are also Xiao Beisheng's friends. No one dares to offend Xiao Beisheng and give you such bad advice. And what a coincidence, Xiao Beisheng and Luo Yan went out to dinner tonight..."
"Not Sister Luo Yan!"
Oh.
Still being stubborn.
You've sold out all your teammates.
Su Man was just trying to trick him, but she didn't expect that she could actually trick out the military advisor behind him.
She lowered her eyes, "So it's your sister Luo Yan. I was thinking, in the whole world, the person who most wants you to be with me is none other than her."
Before Gu Ziheng and Su Man broke up, his clingy nature had long been well-known in their circle.
Now that Su Man is publicly seeking a marriage partner, Luo Yan has no choice but to push this clingy person out.
If Su Man was entangled with Gu Ziheng again, she would have no other thoughts to compete with her for Xiao Beisheng.
"Don't blame her. She heard you were on a blind date recently. She also knew I hadn't let you go, so she came up with this idea for me."
Su Man sighed, "I don't blame anyone, it's just that there's no possibility for you and me anymore, there's no need for you to do these useless things."
When Gu Ziheng heard Su Man's words so firmly, his stubbornness came back:
"Why? Aren't you single again now? Are you looking for a partner again? Shouldn't everyone be equal and have a chance? Or, as Sister Luo Yan said, you said you wanted to go on a blind date just to show Bei Sheng. All of this is just a trick of playing hard to get!"
Suman looked at him speechlessly.
Three words popped into my mind: There's no hope.
She was too lazy to say any more nonsense to Gu Ziheng, so she turned around and left.
Gu Ziheng grabbed her bag and said, "Su Man, are you still entangled with Bei Sheng? Bei Sheng has reunited with Sister Luo Yan now. How can you destroy other people's feelings? Don't you hate third parties the most? Why do you want to be a third party yourself?"
Su Man suddenly stopped and turned around.
That gentle and peaceful face was now covered with gloom, and a resentful and murderous aura rose straight to the sky.
