Episode 303 Cute
Jiang Budu accepted the marriage with Gu Yan because she was a person with little brains and ambition. Although she was a bit willful, he didn't have to worry about her posing a threat to his career, nor did he have to spend too much time on her.
But now, he couldn't help but begin to doubt whether his decision was correct.
If I marry Gu Yan, I will definitely have children. With Gu Yan's intelligence, if the child inherits her...
Jiang Budu started to have a headache just thinking about it.
"I told you it has nothing to do with her. Is your brain a decoration?" Jiang Budu said impatiently, "Do you still want to eat this meal?"
Seeing that Jiang Budu was about to leave, Gu Yan immediately became much more obedient.
She looked back at Tang Qing and unconsciously gritted her teeth.
Even if Jiang Budu said that she had nothing to do with Tang Qing, Gu Yan had already convicted her - Jiang Budu had so many beautiful women around him before, but he had never told her to cancel the engagement for any of them.
Why is Tang Qing an exception?
Tang Qing would have been easy to deal with, but she had a good friend with a strong background... The Gu family couldn't afford to offend the Jiang family right now.
——
Because they ran into Jiang Budu and Gu Yan, Song Yi and his group left the restaurant after dinner.
The mall was just open, so the three of them went in and shopped around all day until Gu Zhongzhou called.
Song Yi answered Gu Zhongzhou's call and told him his current location. Gu Zhongzhou arrived soon.
When he came, he not only brought gifts for Song Yi, but also prepared gifts for Tang Qing and Ying Xing.
"We have some too?" Ying Xing was surprised when he saw the bag that Gu Zhongzhou handed over.
Gu Zhongzhou smiled and nodded, looking gentlemanly and elegant. "It's not a valuable thing, just don't despise it."
Ying Xing: "How can that be? You are being too kind."
She smiled generously, took the gift and thanked Gu Zhongzhou.
We had hotpot in the evening, just upstairs in the shopping mall.
Song Yi and Gu Zhongzhou sat on one side, while Ying Xing and Tang Qing sat opposite.
"Mr. Gu, you order first." Ying Xing considered that it was Gu Zhongzhou's first time to eat hotpot with them, so she handed him the ordering device.
Gu Zhongzhou: "I don't have any dietary restrictions, just order whatever you normally eat."
Ying Xing: "Okay, then I'll order whatever you like."
Gu Zhongzhou: "Bamboo shoots and shrimp."
Ying Xing paused in ordering, suddenly raised his head and looked at him in surprise.
Gu Zhongzhou: "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"How come you have the same taste as me? What a coincidence." Ying Xing came to his senses and laughed, giving him a thumbs up: "Mr. Gu, you have good taste."
Gu Zhongzhou was also amused by her, "That's indeed a coincidence."
Ying Xing has a more extroverted personality, and Gu Zhongzhou has a high emotional intelligence. Song Yi didn't think much about their interaction. After all, Gu Zhongzhou and Ying Xing got along well the last time they went to the hot spring together.
Gu Zhongzhou is indeed a friend worth making close friends with.
I don’t know if it was because of what happened to Jiang Budu, but Tang Qing suddenly fell silent while eating, and would be in a daze from time to time. She didn’t respond when I spoke to her several times.
Ying Xing was a little worried about Tang Qing's condition, so he leaned over to her ear and asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"
Tang Qing came back to his senses, shook his head, and glanced in Gu Zhongzhou's direction, "No, I'm thinking about something."
Ying Xing noticed Tang Qing's little action, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly turned into Yue Lao.
She asked Gu Zhongzhou casually, "Mr. Gu, what type do you like?"
Song Yi frowned and looked at Ying Xing in confusion.
Why did you suddenly ask Gu Zhongzhou such a sensitive and private question?
However, judging by Gu Zhongzhou's expression, he was not angry at all, and responded in detail: "I like people with strong personalities and independent thinking."
"Oh wow, very tasteful." Ying Xing gave a thumbs up again.
It's really rare to hear such a fresh and unconventional answer. Compared with Jiang Budu, he is miles ahead.
After praising him, Ying Xing chuckled and asked him, "Have you ever thought about a real relationship? I'll introduce you to someone."
Gu Zhongzhou: "Hmm? Who would you like to introduce?"
He sounded very interested.
Song Yi was even more confused. Didn't Gu Zhongzhou already have someone he liked? Why did he accept Ying Xing's proposal?
"I'll tell you next time." Ying Xing smiled mysteriously.
Tang Qing, who was sitting next to her, already had a bad premonition and quickly pinched Ying Xing's arm under the table.
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you." Gu Zhongzhou nodded cooperatively.
"Well, is it convenient for you to add WeChat?" Ying Xing just remembered that she didn't have Gu Zhongzhou's contact information.
"It's convenient. I'll scan you." Gu Zhongzhou agreed readily.
Tang Qing watched Gu Zhongzhou scan Ying Xing's QR code and add her on WeChat, then put the green bamboo shoots on the plate into his mouth and chewed them, seemingly lost in thought.
After a while, Ying Xing leaned close to her ear and said, "Wait, I'll be your matchmaker."
Tang Qing was extremely helpless.
She finally understood that the look she gave Gu Zhongzhou just now was interpreted by Ying Xing as her interest in him.
And he also became the matchmaker.
Song Yi was very confused.
When Gu Zhongzhou went to the bathroom halfway through, Song Yi frowned and asked Ying Xing, "Who are you going to introduce to him?"
"What do you think?" Ying Xing glanced at Tang Qing.
Song Yi: “…”
Ying Xing: "He said he likes people with personality and independent thinking. Isn't this just like Tang Qing, keeping things within the family? Anyway, his parents are pushing him, what if sparks fly?"
Song Yi choked, "It's not appropriate."
Gu Zhongzhou has someone she likes, but she can't tell him his privacy directly.
"I think it's quite suitable. Let's give it a try." Ying Xing poked Tang Qing's arm. "Didn't your parents urge you a few days ago? It's just right."
Tang Qing rubbed his temples and said, "Why don't you try it yourself?"
Ying Xing: “…”
Before she could refute, Gu Zhongzhou had already returned from the bathroom.
That's the end of this topic.
——
After dinner, Ying Xing and Tang Qing went back first, and Song Yi and Gu Zhongzhou took a walk outside together.
While taking a walk, Song Yi explained to Gu Zhongzhou what happened at the dinner table: "Xingzi didn't know that you had someone you liked. She was just kind-hearted. I hope she didn't cause you any trouble."
"No." Gu Zhongzhou shook his head. "She's quite cute."
cute?
When Song Yi heard this description, he burst out laughing.
Gu Zhongzhou: "What's wrong?"
"I've known her for more than ten years, and this is the first time I've heard someone use the word 'cute' to describe her." Song Yi found it very fresh.
Gu Zhongzhou: "Hmm? How do others usually describe her?"
Song Yi: "Beautiful, passionate? In any case, it can't be cute."
Gu Zhongzhou: "Maybe, I have a unique perspective on people."
Song Yi nodded in agreement.
It's more than just special; it's a completely different approach.
Not to mention others, even Song Yi had never associated the word "cute" with Ying Xing.
Why is Gu Zhongzhou like a lover who sees beauty in everything?
……etc.
Song Yi suddenly remembered something and his right eyelid twitched violently twice.
She looked up at Gu Zhongzhou, her eyes filled with surprise, scrutiny, and inquiry. Could he be—
