Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 350 - 349: Hot Commodity

Gu Xiaoqing moved aside subtly, the distance of this person was too close, seriously threatening her safety distance.

"President Feng, you’ve overstated it. My little tricks are merely insignificant, nowhere near your grand enterprise. Don’t tease me. I see these are all acquaintances here, so we’ll excuse ourselves while you catch up. Have a good chat while we take our leave."

Gu Xiaoqing wanted to leave; this place wasn’t easy to stay.

Guo Donghua also wanted to leave; he could no longer eat well here, surrounded by handsome men, even wanting to eat was hard. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Letting a handsome man see you chewing food with your mouth wide open, wouldn’t that ruin your image?

Feng Qingyang pressed down on Gu Xiaoqing’s shoulder, "Miss Gu, you can’t leave, as there are matters here related to you. If you leave, how can the show go on?"

Gu Xiaoqing looked up in confusion, seeing the seriousness in Feng Qingyang’s eyes, clearly not joking.

The body that wanted to rise was pressed back into the chair.

Fang Shaohan placed his cup down heavily, saying harshly, "Feng Qingyang, matters between the two of us don’t involve innocent people. Gu Xiaoqing is not Cheng Yanan. It’s unfair of you to target Gu Xiaoqing indiscriminately like this."

"Haha, who said I’m targeting Gu Xiaoqing? I always knew the person sitting here is Gu Xiaoqing, not Cheng Yanan, but apparently, you yourself aren’t very clear on that."

Feng Qingyang looked at Fang Shaohan mockingly, his narrow, almond-shaped eyes sharp and fierce.

Gu Xiaoqing was stunned; what more is there in this?

But what does it have to do with her?

"Gu Xiaoqing, leave, this has nothing to do with you."

It was the first time Fang Shaohan was so urgent in wanting Gu Xiaoqing to leave, his voice revealing unease and concern.

Gu Xiaoqing was even more at a loss.

It’s rare to see something that makes Fang Shaohan uneasy.

What’s going on?

Turning to look at Feng Qingyang, since he started these matters, maybe he could provide clarity.

"Gu Xiaoqing, you are indeed very brave, and curious enough, I like that about you. I think we could get along very well, and although my family is also grand, my personality dictates that I can make my own marital choices, so I hope we can date."

Feng Qingyang’s change in tone almost overwhelmed Gu Xiaoqing.

What kind of joke is this?

The gap from before is too significant.

Gu Xiaoqing was nearly speechless.

Beside her, Fang Shaohan stood up abruptly.

Looking angrily.

"Feng Qingyang, don’t push too far. I said don’t drag innocent people into our rivalry. You’re doing this just to see me unhappy? Is it necessary to be so absolute? Hurting an innocent girl, where is your conscience?"

Fang Shaohan protected Gu Xiaoqing behind him, essentially pushing her behind himself, speaking forcefully to Feng Qingyang.

Feng Qingyang stood up, brushing the splashes of water from his clothes—an unintended spill from Fang Shaohan’s cup earlier.

"Your composure and self-control have vanished, Fang Shaohan, you also have your moments. But you misjudged me; how could I, Feng Qingyang, harm an innocent girl just to hurt you? No, I genuinely wish to marry her, I’ll pursue Gu Xiaoqing with marriage as the goal."

Gu Xiaoqing widened her eyes; what’s happening here?

Am I having hearing issues?

The twist of events is too drastic.

It was a reunion issue a moment ago and now it’s turned into a marriage proposal.

Since when did I become so sought-after?

Oh my God.

Isn’t this an international joke?

Fang Shaohan became even angrier.

"You claim no malice, yet speak casually like this. Who are you to say you control your marriage? It’s more believable if you claimed to be a deity.

I won’t let you do this; she’s my woman, and I’ll protect her, absolutely not allowing a scoundrel to covet her."

He turned and grabbed Gu Xiaoqing’s wrist, saying, "Let’s go."

Ready to pull Gu Xiaoqing away.

Before she could struggle, her other wrist was tightly grasped by a large hand.

"Don’t even think about it. Acting against her wishes is too authoritarian. I don’t believe Gu Xiaoqing wants to go with you."

Feng Qingyang had smoothly grasped Gu Xiaoqing’s other wrist.

Two men’s gazes met, clashing fiercely.

Gu Xiaoqing tugged her sore wrists, "Both of you let go of me. No matter these grudges, I don’t want to be torn apart. Consider others’ feelings, please?"

She was innocently involved.

Fang Shaohan released Gu Xiaoqing’s wrist like he’d been stung, immediately noticing the bruised marks on her wrist, feeling deep regret.

Seeing Fang Shaohan release, Feng Qingyang slowly let go but Fang Shaohan still saw the red marks, although lighter, still imprinted.

Gu Xiaoqing rubbed her wrists, saying helplessly, "If you have unresolved issues or disputes, then go outside. Feel free to compete there, please."

She was truly innocent.

But clearly, Feng Qingyang and Fang Shaohan needed an outlet.

She really didn’t want to be that outlet.

Fang Shaohan and Feng Qingyang both sighed, not wanting to resolve through physical confrontation.

Nor could a fight solve anything.

"I’m sorry!"

Feng Qingyang said to Gu Xiaoqing, realizing he was reckless and she was innocent.

"You’re all grown-ups; everything can be resolved, but using a girl’s lifelong happiness as a competition method is meaningless. You understand what kind of people you are and your families. Don’t rashly say things you’ll regret."

Gu Xiaoqing left behind some light words, then stood, pulling the dazed Guo Donghua along.

This was no longer just a matter between her, Fang Shaonan, and Fang Shaohan but rather a tangle of many people’s grudges.

They left quietly, leaving five behind, facing each other.

Fang Shaohan and Feng Qingyang sat down.

Silently looking at each other, the atmosphere shifted from previous tension to quiet calm.
