Boss Mo’s Predestined Love Brought by Surrogacy-Chapter 714 - Based on the first impressions
Chapter 714 Based on the first impressions
This was not the situation that Gu Manman wanted to see. What she wanted was not to lose face to Gu Yan before she had made any achievements. Gu Manman knew that if she lowered her head now, she would never be able to raise her head in front of Gu Yan and she would be confirmed to be an idiot not only in the eyes of Gu Yan’s, but also in those of Jiang Jingcheng’s.
Which girl could accept being inferior to her rival in love? If Gu Manman accepted Gu Yan’s help, it would mean more than that she was inferior to the latter. No one would need the help of a rival in love.
Gu Manman instinctively wanted to turn down the plan that Qi Changfeng had come up with for her. How could she accept this method?
Qi Changfeng also knew that persuading Gu Manman was not easy at all and it would take a lot of effort for him to do that. Gu Manman was now at the dead end of her career. He could feel that she was now dwelling too hard on her own stuff and he did not want to see her looking for trouble.
“Don’t think about those useless things anymore. Right now, I’m just asking her to give you some guidance. It’s not like I will stop you from designing. Gu Yan will teach you, after that you’ll change your way of thinking and come up with something later. Won’t you be able to make Gu Yan look at you in a new light by then? Why do you have to argue with me now?”
Gu Manman knew what Qi Changfeng said was right, but she still felt ashamed. She always felt that if she did as he said, she would be the first to admit defeat. This was not the situation that she wanted to see.
“But…”
Gu Manman wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. Qi Changfeng knew that her attitude had been softened and he just needed to work a bit harder to persuade her. She was now thinking like a child, and she could not change her mind easily. How could that make things work? It would be a pity for her to miss such a good opportunity.
He had wanted her to show off in front of Gu Yan. In the current situation, it would be a lie to say that he was not embarrassed. But after all, he had already asked Gu Yan to help before. Now everything was ready, and all he needed was the cooperation from Gu Manman. As long as she agreed to his plan, it would be perfect.
“No buts. Furthermore, the person asking for Gu Yan’s help was me, not you. What is there to be ashamed of? Look, for your sake, I’ve been asking around for help. How could I find anyone in the span of a night? Only Gu Yan was willing to help me. You can just take it as helping me out and listen to what she says, okay?”
Qi Changfeng knew Gu Manman’s thoughts very well. At her age, if one said that she was young, she was indeed not a child anymore. But if one said that she was mature, what she had done always made him feel that she was just like a kid. Right now, he felt helpless in his heart. However, he had to be patient and comfort her nicely.
After all, he was just guessing her thoughts. And how could he know what she was actually thinking? He could only judge her attitude towards this matter based on his understanding of her over the years. In fact, he was not 100% sure about it.
What if she was determined not to let Gu Yan teach her? If Gu Manman had made up her mind on that, he would not be able to do anything to her. At this time, the only thing he could do was to convince her. If he failed to do so, it would be equivalent to him putting himself in an awkward situation.
And he could not allow such a situation to happen. The most ideal situation for now would be Gu Manman accepting Gu Yan’s help and then making an excellent design with her own efforts to make her boss look at her differently. Only in this way could everyone be happy. But if any part of this went wrong…
Qi Changfeng could not imagine what he would do if something were to go wrong in this plan of his. He had never thought of any other possibility regarding this matter. All he could think about was that Gu Yan had agreed to help him, as well as Gu Manman being willing to accept Gu Yan’s help.
Now, Gu Manman did not say anything for a long time, and Qi Changfeng got worried. What if she was determined not to accept Gu Yan’s help? If she was unwilling to do that, how should he deal with this matter?
He didn’t dare to think any further.
His brain after the hangover started to ache involuntarily at this moment. He closed his eyes in pain, but at the same time, he was looking forward to Gu Manman’s reply.
If she was unwilling to compromise after he said so much to her, he could only find another way to deal with her problem. After all, she was his biological cousin. How could he leave her alone with her trouble?
However, if he just let her do as she pleased, it would be equivalent as standing Gu Yan up. Qi Changfeng knew that what he had done recently wasn’t able to leave a good impression on her, but there was no way around it. He wanted to impress her, but he really wasn’t capable of stealing his friend’s woman.
This was against his gentlemanly way of doing things.
“Alright then, but what if Gu Yan does not teach me well?”
Because Gu Yan had always been a bad woman’s setting in Gu Manman’s heart, Gu Manman was not sure if her boss would guide her well after she compromised with Gu Yan. If Gu Yan played tricks in the process, what should she do? Should she ask her cousin for help again?
Gu Manman felt a little embarrassed. After all, she had troubled Qi Changfeng with too many things lately, and these things were not easy for him to deal with, especially the matter between her and Gu Yan, which made it even more difficult for him to handle.
Although Gu Manman did not have a good impression of Gu Yan and felt that she was not a good person, it was undeniable that since her boss could attract the attention of so many outstanding men, it proved that she had some redeeming qualities. If she was good for nothing, how could so many people try to woo her?
Was it just because she had a beautiful appearance? No, Gu Manman knew very well that the appearance was the least long-lasting thing in the world. No good thing lasted forever. She had understood this since she was a child. She did not know for sure why others liked Gu Yan, but she felt certain that Qi Changfeng liked Gu Yan not just because of her appearance.
It meant that there were other qualities of Gu Yan that Gu Manman still didn’t know about. She figured that she might have thought wrongly of Gu Yan based on the first impressions.
