Chapter 507
Gu Zhongzhou has been "pursuing" Ying Xing for a year. After boiling the frog in warm water for so long, he finally took action recently - two weeks ago, Tang Qing helped Gu Zhongzhou carry out a plan.
However, that time he just "accidentally" told Ying Xing about Gu Zhongzhou being arranged to go on a blind date, and they didn't really meet by chance.
I wonder how Ying Xing will react when we meet this time.
Gu Zhongzhou said that after Ying Xing knew about the blind date, she never contacted him privately again. He took the initiative to send WeChat to chat with Ying Xing, but Ying Xing ignored him, obviously trying to avoid suspicion.
Of course, there was also an awkward element - Tang Qing knew Ying Xing very well, and she was not the kind of person who was confused about her own identity, so when she knew that Gu Zhongzhou was going on a blind date, even if she realized that she was interested in Gu Zhongzhou, she would not get close to him.
Gu Zhongzhou's move was risky, but high risk also comes with high returns - once successful, his relationship with Ying Xing would not only have a qualitative leap, but would also grow at the speed of a rocket.
Tang Qing thought about what was about to happen and felt quite excited.
After lying in bed for a while, Tang Qing got up and packed up to go out. She, Song Yi and Ying Xing had made an appointment to go shopping together and meet at the IFC Shopping Center.
The three of them hadn't met for nearly half a month, so they started chatting as soon as they met, with endless topics to talk about.
While shopping, Tang Qing went to the men's clothing counter and bought a shirt and tie for Shi Chen. Song Yi and Ying Xing saw her easily tell Shi Chen's clothing size, looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.
Ying Xing pulled Tang Qing's arm, leaned closer and asked her, "How is Shi Chen?"
Tang Qing looked at Ying Xing's evil smile and knew what she was asking. However, this kind of topic was not considered a big deal among the three of them, and they talked about it often.
Tang Qing remained calm and unfazed. After a moment's thought, he said, "Not bad. The hardware and software are well balanced."
Ying Xing and Song Yi were amused by Tang Qing's answer. They both gave her a thumbs up, saying that she was very balanced.
However, it was not difficult to hear from Tang Qing's answer that she and Shi Chen had a good relationship. Song Yi and Ying Xing were very pleased about this - not only did it make up for the regrets of the past, but it also helped her get out of that bad relationship.
…
The three of them walked around the mall for more than three hours without having lunch, which made it convenient for Tang Qing to cooperate with Gu Zhongzhou.
It was almost time, so Tang Qing suggested going out for dinner, and Song Yi and Ying Xing nodded in agreement.
The place Gu Zhongzhou was talking about was a tea restaurant on the sixth floor of the shopping mall.
After the peak dining time, there were only a few tables occupied and there was no need to wait for a table. The three of them entered the restaurant under the guidance of the waiter. Tang Qing suggested choosing a seat by the window, but after walking a few steps, they bumped into Gu Zhongzhou.
To be precise, it was Gu Zhongzhou and a woman.
Tang Qing and Song Yi both knew Gu Zhongzhou's plan in advance. When they saw this scene, they looked at Ying Xing at the same time.
Ying Xing naturally saw this scene as well. She was originally joking, but after seeing the two people, her smile froze at the corners of her mouth. But it only lasted for a few seconds, and she quickly returned to her usual state.
Ying Xing immediately looked away, pretending not to see it, and said to the waiter, "Let's sit at the last table."
Waiter: "Okay ma'am, I'll take you three there."
"What a coincidence." Gu Zhongzhou greeted the three of them with a smile. His eyes swept over Tang Qing and Song Yi in turn, and finally stopped at Ying Xing's face.
Tang Qing and Song Yi smiled and nodded, "Yes, you come here to eat too."
Finally, Tang Qing asked cooperatively, "Mr. Gu, who is this?"
Gu Zhongzhou's answer was ambiguous: "A friend."
Song Yi: "Then you guys eat first, we won't disturb you."
Gu Zhongzhou nodded, his eyes still on Ying Xing's face.
Ying Xing was not unaware of his gaze, but she ignored it directly, snorted in her heart, and was too lazy to even save face. She just walked forward.
Tang Qing and Song Yi followed immediately.
After the three of them sat down, they started ordering food. While Ying Xing and Song Yi were studying the menu, Tang Qing sent a WeChat message to Gu Zhongzhou.
Tang Qing: [Next step?]
Gu Zhongzhou: [You guys should eat first. I don't think I'll need your help from now on.]
Tang Qing: [Are you sure?]
Gu Zhongzhou: [Yes, I will go to her house tonight.]
Tang Qing: [Boss Gu, you've truly made a splash.]
Gu Zhongzhou: [I'll treat you and Song Yi to dinner some other day.]
After chatting with Gu Zhongzhou for a few words, Tang Qing put down her phone. When she looked up, she saw Ying Xing staring at her.
"Chatting with Shi Chen?" Ying Xing tutted, "You two are so clingy, you could be conjoined twins."
Tang Qing: "Isn't this how love is?"
Ying Xing: "Oh my, it smells sour and stinky."
Ying Xing's expression and reaction seemed quite normal. People who were not familiar with her probably couldn't tell anything was wrong with her, but Tang Qing and Song Yi had known her for so many years that they could hear her emotions from her jokes.
Something went wrong from the moment I "accidentally" met Shi Chen.
However, Tang Qing and Song Yi tacitly did not mention this matter.
There were not many people in the restaurant, and the food was served quickly. Within a few minutes after I ordered, the dishes were served one after another.
The first dish to be served was mango sago, and each of the three of them took a sip.
Ying Xing: "Hey, this mango sago tastes good, not too sweet, and has a strong fruity flavor. I like it."
Song Yi also nodded in agreement.
Tang Qing said, "It's good, but it's still a little worse than what Shi Chen did."
The weather has been getting warmer recently. Shi Chen had made mango sago several times before, which was very refreshing. After tasting it, Tang Qing felt that this was the most satisfying mango sago she had ever tasted. Both the sweetness and the ratio of fruits were perfect.
"Tsk, it's started again." Ying Xing shuddered at Tang Qing's words. "Shi Chen must be really capable. He's the one who makes you talk about him all the time."
Song Yi also looked at Tang Qing with a smile: "Does Shi Chen often cook for you?"
Tang Qing: "It's more common on weekends. I didn't expect his cooking skills to be so good."
Ying Xing: "That's great. When you get married, you can take turns cooking."
Speaking of marriage, Ying Xing took the opportunity to ask, "Have you ever thought about settling down with him?"
Tang Qing was silent for a while. "I haven't considered taking things any further yet. I haven't even been with him for a month. Let's see how we get along."
While we were chatting, the dishes we ordered were served one after another.
When the three of them sat together, they always had endless topics to talk about, and the conversation never stopped.
until--
"Ugh." Song Yi just put a piece of tripe into his mouth, and suddenly he covered his mouth and started to dry heave.
Tang Qing and Ying Xing immediately stopped chatting, turned their gazes towards her, and asked in unison: "What's wrong with you?"
Tang Qing handed Song Yi a few tissues. Song Yi took them, wiped his mouth, and said in a weak voice, "I don't know. I suddenly felt a little nauseous. Maybe I have a heat stroke."
"It's only May, how can you be suffering from the heat?" Ying Xing frowned, and suddenly thought of something, looking at Song Yi's belly, "I say, are you pregnant?"
