Gu Shaokai didn't go to see Zhong Xinyi for two whole days.
He lifted his eyelids slightly and asked, "Hei Zi, has the matter been investigated thoroughly?"
Hei Zi, standing to the side, said, "Brother Kai, we've found out, it's...."
He hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Gu Shaokai's eyes instantly turned cold, and he roared, "What is it? Tell me right now!"
Hei Zi was startled, but made up his mind. "Miss Xiangxiang came to see you that day, and it seems your sister-in-law saw her."
Which fragrance?
Gu Shaokai was puzzled; to be honest, he really didn't remember these women's names.
"It's the one that your wife arranged for you to meet before."
Gu Shaokai then recalled that his mother had only arranged one blind date for him, and he had been tricked into going.
He had only met her once when that wretched woman claimed to have fallen in love with him at first sight. After he gave her a good scolding, she quieted down for a while.
He had already investigated and found that the woman's private life was extremely chaotic, considered rotten in their circle.
My mother has always been naive and well protected by my father. I don't know which bastard gossiped about her, which led to this blind date.
That jerk, I don't know what possessed her, came back to him last time.
Oh no, it seems that stinky woman held his hand. Could Xinyi have seen it then?
Thinking of this, his face darkened, and he wanted to curse "Damn it."
He grabbed his coat and ran outside without saying a word.
Hei Zi quickly asked, "Brother Kai, where are you going?"
"Go find your sister-in-law."
Gu Shaokai answered without turning his head.
He drove quickly to the cultural troupe, explained his purpose, and then had someone go in and announce his arrival.
Zhong Xinyi was rehearsing hard, and Ma Qin was standing not far behind her.
"Xinyi, come here for a second."
Zhong Xinyi stopped to wipe her sweat and took a few steps to Ma Qin's side.
"What happened to the commander?"
Ma Qin got straight to the point, "Is something on your mind lately? You can talk to the regimental commander about it."
Ever since Xinyi started dating the young master of the Gu family, she has become insecure and anxious.
It's become even more obvious these past two days. I'm numbing myself with work every day, as if I'm trying to work myself to death.
Zhong Xinyi forced a smile. "Team leader, I have nothing on my mind."
Ma Qin patted the spot next to her, inviting Zhong Xinyi to sit beside her.
“You’ve been with the performing arts troupe for three years now. In these three years, no matter how hard or tiring it has been, or how many grievances you’ve suffered, you’ve never shown it on your face.”
Ma Qin chuckled softly, as if reminiscing.
At this point, Zhong Xinyi felt a pang of unease and lowered her head in embarrassment.
"Commander, it's not that I don't want to say it, but I don't know how to bring it up."
Ma Qin took in her expression and took her hand. "Did you have a fight with Gu Shaokai?"
Zhong Xinyi sighed, "There's a huge gap between our families, and forcing us to be together won't work."
"How do you know there won't be any results?" Ma Qin retorted.
"A relationship between two people needs to be maintained by both parties, not by simply running away. In Commander Ma's opinion, you are better than many girls, and it is Gu Shaokai's good fortune to be in a relationship with you."
Commander Ma's tone was just like Sister Jingjing's. Was she really stuck in a dead end?
"Commander, I'm not as good as you say."
She was an orphan with a grandmother to support.
The groom's family usually dislikes it.
In reality, she is not as strong as she appears. If she experiences a setback in love, she fears she won't be able to handle it.
Just then, someone came in to report, "Reporting to Commander Ma, a man wants to see Zhong Xinyi."
Who is it?
Ma Qin and the other person turned their heads together.
He said his name was Gu Shaokai.
The two exchanged a glance, and Ma Qin urged, "Go see him quickly and make things clear."
Zhong Xinyi hesitated for a moment before changing her clothes and going out.
Gu Shaokai lingered at the door, causing the guards to mistake him for a bad guy.
When he saw the person he had been longing for come out, he quickly waved.
But the young woman remained calm, as if she were still angry.
Zhong Xinyi pulled the man into a corner.
"Why are you here again...?"
Upon closer inspection, the man's lips had a small cut.
She knew it was her masterpiece, and felt somewhat guilty.
Gu Shaokai cut to the chase, asking directly, "Did you come looking for me that day?"
Alright, the little woman's reaction was off; he was 100% certain.
“I have nothing to do with that woman. A year ago, my mother tricked me into going on a blind date. I left as soon as I got there. Who knows what she was thinking that day? To be honest, I don’t even remember her name.”
Zhong Xinyi's face remained completely expressionless.
She knew Gu Shaokai had immediately dumped that woman; that wasn't what she cared about.
"Xinyi, can you say something?"
Gu Shaokai's humble request.
Zhong Xinyi stared intently into his eyes. "That's not the problem between us."
What is that?
Gu Shaokai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
“If it’s a difference in status, you don’t need to worry at all. My mother has wanted to meet you for a long time. If it’s really not possible, we can get married right now, and all my assets will be transferred to your name.”
Zhong Xinyi was startled by the man's words. Why did they suddenly get a marriage certificate?
"Don't talk nonsense."
“I’m not lying. After we get married, I will listen to everything you say and give you every penny I earn. You only need to give me a little pocket money each month.”
In order to win back his wife, Gu Shaokai disregarded his pride.
Face isn't worth much.
Regardless of whether what the man said was true or false, she was truly moved at that moment.
He seems to have been working really hard, so shouldn't I also give up?
"You only get so little pocket money a month, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
"As long as I can get a wife, none of that matters."
Seeing that she was in the mood to joke, Gu Shaokai relaxed and put his arm around Zhong Xinyi's waist, pulling her into his embrace.
Zhong Xinyi paused for a moment, then reached out and hugged his waist.
This made Gu Shaokai laugh even more heartily.
Zhong Xinyi suddenly remembered something and stepped back slightly. "By the way, does the wound on your lip still hurt?"
She remembers biting down very hard.
Gu Shaokai grinned, "This is a mark my wife gave me, and I'd like to get a few more."
Last time, Xinyi left a hickey on his neck, and he deliberately flaunted it in front of everyone. His haters even called him a show-off.
However, he accepted them all, saying that the troll was single and didn't understand romance.
"loquacious."
Zhong Xinyi patted his shoulder helplessly.
Seeing the man's lips approach again, she quickly reached out to stop him, "I still have rehearsals, can you go back first?"
Gu Shaokai took a small peck and seized the opportunity to make a request, "Are you free tonight? I'll come pick you up."
Zhong Xinyi nodded shyly and ran into the performing arts troupe, turning back every three steps.
Gu Shaokai was left laughing foolishly.
