Just as Wei Xian was eagerly watching, with his eyes fixed intently on Gu Minmin, Zha Jiahong spoke up: "I have my eye on her."
With that one sentence, the smile vanished from Wei Xian’s face.
"Really interested? I want that girl too."
Zha Jiahong glanced at him and then lowered his head to continue eating.
With a single look, the latter shrugged indifferently.
Since Young Master Zha had an interest, the girl was naturally not his concern anymore.
Gu Jin, Gu Minmin, Feng Hui, Ma Qiaolan, and Hu Yue finished their lunch, returned the trays, and left together arm in arm.
None of them knew what had happened monts ago at the table of the school heartthrobs not far away.
Even less did they know that Gu Minmin had been singled out.
...
In the next two days, Gu Jin again took leave.
She needed to personally go to Beijing.
The business license for Shijiu Entertainnt Company had been issued, and the contract with Cheng Shi’en had been finalized by the lawyers. There were still so details that needed her confirmation, and finally, she had to sign the contract and et with the temporary manager arranged by her third apprentice.
Gu Jin wasn’t going alone; accompanying her to Beijing was Gu Jiajie.
He essentially entrusted the rest of his life to Gu Jin, leaving the whole responsibility of the Hundred Flavors Pavilion in Wanhai City to his two good brothers.
While they went to Beijing, sothing unexpected happened to Gu Minmin.
For the first ti in her life, she encountered a pursuer.
It was a handso and generous boy nad Zha Jiahong, the school heartthrob.
She was both surprised and pleased, but mostly scared.
The previous experiences at her old ho left her unable to escape the shadows, the sticky feeling, the suffocating sense of being oppressed, making her very averse to n.
But Zha Jiahong seed to notice her shyness and took a gentle approach.
He would occasionally give her chocolates, imported sodas, and exquisite electronic watches, things Gu Minmin had never seen before.
She initially refused, but couldn’t stop him from slipping them into her backpack, only to run away after stashing them.
She thought of returning them to Zha Jiahong when she got the chance, but he was always surrounded by a crowd.
She didn’t eat or drink or use any of those things, planning to wait until her brother and Sister Jin returned.
Until this day, after finishing her howork at ho, once again Gu Minmin took out what Zha Jiahong had given her.
Looking at the chocolate bar, Gu Minmin gulped.
This thing must be expensive.
She had eaten chocolate beans before, but never this kind of chocolate, and it was a foreign brand.
Judging by the design on the package, it should taste good.
Eventually, she couldn’t resist the temptation and ate the chocolate.
Delicious!
Particularly rich and smooth, with a lingering taste, it was so delicious she almost swallowed her tongue.
Once Gu Minmin finished the chocolate, she looked at the empty wrapper with a troubled expression on her face.
However, rembering her brother’s wealth, she figured compensating Zha Jiahong might be possible.
Thinking this way, she felt a bit at ease.
Yet, it was this very chocolate bar that led to her subsequent experiences.
...
On the fifth day after Gu Jin and Gu Jiajie left.
That day, when Gu Minmin got out of class and was ready to take the bus ho, she was stopped by Zha Jiahong and his group, including Wei Xian.
"Minmin, I’ve been pursuing you for so long, why not co out and have so fun with ?"
Zha Jiahong didn’t mince words and got straight to the point.
Gu Minmin gripped her backpack tightly, constantly stepping back. She was both nervous and uneasy, with her head slightly lowered, not daring to look at the person in front of her.
Seeing her like this, Zha Jiahong felt a bit impatient.
The reason he decided to pursue Gu Minmin was purely to prevent Wei Xian from getting fixated on her.
But this girl was straightforward, with a knack for irritation.
