Let's Squander A Billion First!
Chapter 1805: Rising Star (7)
Chuzheng admired her own ability to fabricate lies, impressing herself to the point of awe. Such adaptability is strong!
Gu Yu’s mood was not so pleasant, the man’s face turned somber as he glanced at the person standing in the back, who immediately stepped forward to push Gu Yu away.
"..."
What was this!?!
As Gu Yu moved, the entire box quieted down, and everyone’s gaze focused on Gu Yu.
Were they too noisy?
Or did they neglect this man?
No one dared to speak, only eagerly hoping that this man would express his dissatisfaction himself.
"Not leaving yet?" Gu Yu saw Chuzheng sitting still and called out in a low voice.
Chuzheng: "..."
If you tell me to leave, I just leave!
Do I not need my dignity?!
-
Chuzheng calmly followed Gu Yu out of the box, with Gu Yu’s bodyguard pushing him forward, while Gu Yu rested one hand on his chin, lost in thought.
While waiting for the elevator, Gu Yu’s eyes fell on her.
"Miss Qin, I hope next time you won’t appear at such drinking gatherings, pay attention to your identity."
"What identity? Your fiancée?"
Gu Yu’s expression turned oddly: "As long as you know, even if you don’t want to, you are now my fiancée, Gu Yu’s fiancée."
Ding——
The elevator door opened, the bodyguard, with his eyes on the nose, pushed Gu Yu inside.
Chuzheng took a few steps in, and the elevator door closed, leaving only the sound of the fan overhead within this small space.
Chuzheng looked at the man reflected in the elevator’s faint outline, calmly saying: "As long as Mr. Gu knows this one point, I’ve changed my mind, I don’t plan to cancel the engagement with Mr. Gu. I ask Mr. Gu to take care of things moving forward."
Gu Yu: "What did you say?"
"I said..."
Ding——
The elevator door suddenly opened, and with someone outside, Chuzheng didn’t continue, she looked up to meet a man’s gaze.
The man wore casual clothes, a mask, and a hat, with one hand in pocket, the other holding a phone to his ear, exposing a wrist adorned with a bracelet, mostly leather with a beaded center, not appearing as a luxury item.
Two people guarded the man from both sides, shielding him in the middle.
Even if she hadn’t seen the man’s face, Chuzheng knew who this person was.
Fu Xingchen!
The Fu Xingchen that the original owner liked.
Gu Yu’s arch rival.
Chuzheng suddenly stepped forward, Gu Yu’s gaze fell on her, his mouth showing a hint of sarcasm, eager to see her heart’s desire.
Before Gu Yu could think more, he saw Chuzheng directly press the close button.
The elevator door quickly shut, clearly surprising Xing Chen, though unsure what about it surprised him, he only felt the girl seemed familiar.
Fu Xingchen was familiar with the original owner’s heavily made-up appearance, naturally not recognizing the unadorned Chuzheng.
Once the elevator door closed, Fu Xingchen furrowed his brow slightly.
"Hey, what’s with that girl?" All of this happened in the blink of an eye, Fu Xingchen’s assistant instantly flared up: "So impolite."
Whether they got on was one thing, how could anyone inside directly close the elevator?!
"Wasn’t that Gu Yu?" Hai Wei, the agent, asked uncertainly.
The elevator closed too fast, the man also leaning sideways, so he couldn’t see clearly.
"Yes, it was him." Fu Xingchen confirmed.
Since the last accident, the man hadn’t appeared in public, Fu Xingchen hadn’t seen this once equal rival.
Not expecting to meet today here.
-
On the other side, inside the elevator, Chuzheng finished pressing the close button, calmly stepping back.
This is not the time to trouble Fu Xingchen.
This is her Good Person Card, what if there’s a misunderstanding!! 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Cannot let the Good Person Card misunderstand!
"Miss Qin, what are you doing?" Gu Yu maintained his previous posture, though his tone was full of sarcasm: "Seeing your heart’s desire without greeting?"
Chuzheng: "..."
Did Gu Yu know the original liked Fu Xingchen?
Images suddenly flashed through Chuzheng’s mind.
It was the original’s first day at the villa, already in a bad mood, the first thing she said upon seeing Gu Yu was: "I have someone I like, we’re impossible."
What did Gu Yu reply?
He didn’t reply, the man coldly snorted, rotated his wheelchair upstairs, the original felt like hitting cotton with a fist.
Later the original repeatedly sought Gu Yu to cancel the engagement, and mentioned the person she liked was Fu Xingchen.
The little person inside Chuzheng’s mind squatted in the corner, hands over its head, what a mess.
Chuzheng quickly skimmed through various dramas she had watched, calmly looking at him, "Is Mr. Gu talking about himself?"
Gu Yu: "???"
Crazy.
Qin Chuzheng occasionally acted up, Gu Yu only assumed she was scheming something else, didn’t think deeply: "Don’t waste effort on me, I’ve told you long ago, our engagement isn’t up to me."
The elevator reached the ground level, and the bodyguard pushed Gu Yu out, not waiting for Chuzheng.
Chuzheng didn’t chase after, after all her persona of high, cold elegance couldn’t collapse.
Just as Chuzheng prepared to go to her car, someone suddenly rushed out beside her, crashing into her.
Her attention was on Gu Yu, she hadn’t noticed someone rushing over.
She was jolted backward, though not falling, the person who collided with her did.
At that moment, a gust of wind blew past, a tall figure helped the fallen person up: "Are you okay?"
Chuzheng focused, internally scrolling through several captions: Narrow roads meet foes, ghost spirits linger, revenge and justice...
[...] The former two can be understood, but what’s with the latter?
These two weren’t strangers, one being the Fu Xingchen just encountered, the other being that dog, Nian Yue.
Nian Yue held by Fu Xingchen, shook his head hastily: "I’m fine... she..."
Nian Yue looked up, suddenly startled, instinctively shouted: "Chuzheng?"
Chuzheng?
Fu Xingchen glanced at the girl opposite, no wonder he felt her features were familiar earlier, it was Qin Chuzheng...
How did Qin Chuzheng look like this?
Fu Xingchen’s impression of Qin Chuzheng was nothing like this.
After calling, Nian Yue’s heart skipped a beat, immediately turning his head to Fu Xingchen.
Noticing the confusion and probing in Fu Xingchen’s eyes, Nian Yue’s heart sank further.
She always knew Chuzheng was beautiful, a beauty that would make any woman jealously admire.
Unexpectedly, shortly after leaving, she appeared like this before Fu Xingchen.
Nian Yue’s thoughts churned swiftly, soon displaying a sorrowful and remorseful look: "Chuzheng... Are you... Are you doing well lately?"
"Without you, I’m very well." Chuzheng’s tone was indifferent, completely different from the person Nian Yue was familiar with.
Nian Yue’s face slightly changed from Chuzheng’s response.
Fu Xingchen furrowed his brow immediately, just about to speak, but Nian Yue cut in first.
