Chapter 246: Getting Drunk in Front of Him

Gu Qingcheng’s hand, which was removing her hairpin, paused, and her gentle expression turned cold.

She didn’t look at Qi Shaoze but continued to place the hairpin into a jewelry box.

“Qingcheng, right now…” Li Jing opened the door and began speaking, but her voice stopped when she saw Qi Shaoze. “Mr. Qi is here too.”

Qi Shaoze didn’t pay attention to Li Jing; his peach blossom eyes were fixed on Gu Qingcheng.

“I’ve booked a restaurant,” he walked slowly towards Gu Qingcheng, his voice gentle, “We haven’t seen each other for a long time, and we haven’t had a meal together. Give me face, won’t you?”

Li Jing’s gaze shifted between Gu Qingcheng and Qi Shaoze, and she spoke cautiously, “Mr. Qi, the Peach Blossom Cup hasn’t ended yet. And there’s a school banquet tonight that she has to attend as the principal. How about you two meet another day for a meal?”

Qi Shaoze looked at Li Jing, “Can I go to the school banquet with her? I’m also a sponsor of Royal Dance Academy, and I’m a sponsor of Royal Dance.”

“Hmm?” Li Jing was surprised, “You’re mistaken. Royal Dance Academy is entirely sponsored by Huo Corporation, and Star Dreams Entertainment only sponsors the Peach Blossom Cup.”

Qi Shaoze felt embarrassed, indeed he had made a mistake.

His mind had been entirely on Gu Qingcheng, and he had forgotten about these

details.

Now, he was infuriated at Huo Sicheng for taking his place as the sponsor of Royal Dance Academy.

He asked Li Jing, “I’m a friend of Qingcheng; I can attend as a friend, right?”

In reality, he could tell that Li Jing was trying to find excuses to reject him. After all these days, he finally had a chance to meet Gu Qingcheng, and he didn’t want to lose this opportunity.

“Well,” Li Jing looked hesitant, “Mr. Qi, it’s not that I don’t allow you to attend. It’s just that this is an internal banquet for Royal Dance, and it might not be appropriate for you as a friend.”

“I can wait,” Qi Shaoze turned to Gu Qingcheng, “Qingcheng, I’ll wait for you after the banquet. We can have a late-night meal.”

Gu Qingcheng replied decisively, “I don’t eat late-night meals.”

Qi Shaoze’s expression stiffened slightly, but he continued to smile at Gu

Qingcheng, “Then, how about a cup of tea after the banquet?”

Gu Qingcheng responded indifferently, “Tea at night can cause water retention.”

Qi Shaoze asked Gu Qingcheng, “How about we just chat?”

“I don’t have time,” Gu Qingcheng refused Qi Shaoze, “You should do what you need to do.”

“Qingcheng,” Qi Shaoze didn’t want to leave, “just one meal. I’ve already reserved the restaurant, and there won’t be any media interference. I can also guarantee that we won’t trend on social media again. I’ll even let you use my head as a soccer ball.”

Gu Qingcheng didn’t say anything. She sat at her dressing table for a moment and then said, “Alright, I’ll have a meal with you.”

Seeing that Gu Qingcheng had made a decision, Li Jing, who had been in the room, left with a knowing look.

Gu Qingcheng and Qi Shaoze left together, but they each took their own cars.

Although Qi Shaoze had assured Gu Qingcheng that there wouldn’t be any media coverage at the restaurant, it didn’t mean that they wouldn’t be photographed during the Peach Blossom Cup event.

There was a clicking sound of a camera capturing a photo of Qi Shaoze and Gu Qingcheng walking together towards the parking garage.

On the 120th floor of the F-style restaurant, Gu Qingcheng wore a purple dress, had her long hair styled in a bun, and wore a hairpin with emerald ornaments. Her beautiful face, without any makeup, displayed no expression.

She sat by the window, looking at the night view of Jiangcheng, an exquisite picture in itself.

Qi Shaoze gazed at Gu Qingcheng, unable to take his eyes off her.

When Gu Qingcheng was busy, she chose to forget about Huo Sicheng.

However, when she was sitting in this quiet restaurant, she realized that Huo Sicheng’s presence had once again occupied her heart and mind.

She had silenced her phone while she was on site, and she only checked it after the competition had ended. There were no missed calls from Huo Sicheng.

In other words, she had called him, but he didn’t answer her call.

After a long time, Huo Sicheng called her back, but he didn’t reach out to her again after she hung up, not even a message on WeChat.

With his actions, he made it clear that he cared more about Miss Li than her.

She spoke softly, “I suddenly feel that some of the things you said weren’t entirely wrong. ”

Qi Shaoze was puzzled, “Ah… What did I say?”

He was now very cautious around Gu Qingcheng. She already knew his intentions, so he couldn’t afford to speak carelessly.

Upon hearing Qi Shaoze’s question, Gu Qingcheng hesitated for a moment. She didn’t look at him and simply said, “It’s nothing.”

She had so much trust in Huo Sicheng, so much love for him.

To this day, she couldn’t forget the incident where Gu Mei had tampered with the foie gras dish, nearly causing him to die in bed.

She was afraid, truly afraid of losing him for the first time, which made her realize that she couldn’t be without Huo Sicheng, that she loved him so much.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t feel Huo Sicheng’s affection for her.

She knew that he liked her. However, when compared to Miss Li, his affection for her was far less obvious.

A confident person like her had lost her self-confidence for the first time because of Miss Li.

And her lack of self-confidence in Miss Li was entirely due to Huo Sicheng’s attitude toward both her and Miss Li.

She knew that Qi Shaoze wanted to separate her from Huo Sicheng, but tonight she remembered something he had said in the past.

Qi Shaoze had told her that when she and Huo Sicheng were divorcing, she shouldn’t give him a chance, that it would be better to divorce cleanly without any contract, that it would be better to endure a short pain than a long one.

But she had never expected to come full circle and find herself back at the starting point. Her marriage with Huo Sicheng was on the verge of breaking.

“Qingcheng,” Qi Shaoze looked at Gu Qingcheng, his expression concerned, “Has something happened? Has someone upset you? You can tell me, and I’ll help you handle it.”

Gu Qingcheng smiled when she heard Qi Shaoze’s words.

Because Qi Shaoze’s words were so similar to what Huo Sicheng had said.

“All you men aren’t good people.”

Qi Shaoze:

Gu Qingcheng’s words suddenly made him understand that her bad mood was because of Huo Sicheng. After all, she and Qin Jun had broken up long ago, and the scandalous video between Gu Mei and Qin Jun would not make her feel so bad.

Qi Shaoze said, “I, at least, am a good person.” His voice was soft, “One who would give you my heart and soul.”

“Are you a good person?” Gu Qingcheng chuckled. “You’re not a good person.

You’re a trashy, lying, cassanova.”

As she spoke, she picked up her knife and fork to eat. “Let’s eat. After we finish eating, I want to go home.”

As she said this, her hand holding the knife and fork trembled.

Home; Wanmei Villa.

Huo Sicheng was off to meet Miss Li like a cowherd meeting the weaver girl, and he definitely wouldn’t be back tonight.

What home was there for her to return to, the so-called Wanmei Villa?

He claimed that Wanmei Villa was their home.

What kind of home was this?

If he knew he had another home, he wouldn’t have gone to meet Miss Li abroad, and if he did meet Miss Li, he should have called her more than once. She had only hung up one of his calls, and he had completely disappeared.

Tonight, she had treated him as if he were dead.

Qi Shaoze’s expression froze when Gu Qingcheng called him a scumbag.

Seeing that Gu Qingcheng was in a bad mood, he didn’t say anything and simply poured himself a glass of wine.

Gu Qingcheng saw Qi Shaoze pouring wine and said coldly, “Pour me a glass too. ”

“No,” Qi Shaoze shook his head, “Your tolerance for alcohol is low. One glass and you’ll be done.”

Gu Qingcheng looked up at Qi Shaoze, her words carrying a hidden meaning, “You can only have a chance if I get drunk, don’t you want this opportunity?”
