I’ve almost gotten used to this kind of reckless behavior with Xue ngng.
"He must know I’ve deceived him now. Look, he hasn’t called since," Gu Ziyou said, clutching her phone tightly with a worried expression.
"You could have delayed if you hadn’t boarded the plane yet, but you already boarded, so why say it like that?" ngng said, carrying her suitcase, "Anyway, there’s nothing he can do about it now. Are you... chickening out and afraid to tell the truth?"
"Why would I..." Gu Ziyou drooped her head, "Yeah, I’m still a bit scared to tell him that I’m already in Manchester. We agreed to return to Manchester together after my parents co back, and he’s been particularly busy these days. But I ca back early."
ngng said with disdain, "Gu Ziyou, let’s not say you haven’t married yet - even if you were married, visiting ho is totally normal. Can you not be like this? About this small matter, you can stand tall and boldly tell Shen Lingfeng that this lady is in Manchester enjoying herself and he can co serve you in a few days. What opinions could he have?"
Gu Ziyou pouted; that makes sense.
It’s just that she feels too exhausted every night, so sneaking away seed embarrassing.
"Alright, I’ll call him now."
Finally gathering her courage, she dialed the number.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off..."
"His phone is off." Gu Ziyou lost hope completely and decided to just take ngng ho first.

The two went to their favorite restaurant from before and had a al. The servant smiled at them as they returned, "Second Miss is back. The room arranged for Miss ngng is ready..."
"Who said that? Is there any need?," ngng said, raising her chin, "I don’t need a separate room; tonight, I’m sleeping in your second miss’s room. I’ll sleep with her!"
The servant listened to their jokes, smiled, and then said, "Also, Mr. Li is here. He ntioned he’d wait here after I said Second Miss went to pick up Miss ngng at the airport."
"Li Chaoxi actually has free ti?" ngng exclaid in surprise, "Let’s go, let’s have a drink."
Gu Ziyou felt relieved; thankfully she brought ngng along.
In the living room, Li Chaoxi, dressed casually, with his legs crossed, appeared to be on a call with his agent.
"Chaoxi, don’t you have filming to do? How co you ended up here," ngng said with a radiant smile.
Gu Ziyou smiled and said, "Didn’t you ntion before that you’re taking on a new role?"
Li Chaoxi glanced at them, said a few casual words to his assistant, and hung up the phone.
"You’re back, why did picking people up take so long?" He noticed a trace of hesitation in Gu Ziyou but ended up smiling, "The little ti I had left is mostly gone."
Gu Ziyou sighed, "I had no idea you were coming over; why didn’t you call ? I just went out to eat with ngng."
"I just happened to hear you were back, and I was nearby, thought I’d check in," he said as he stood, "I figured you’d be back soon and didn’t call. How many days are you staying this ti?"
"?" Gu Ziyou and ngng walked over and sat on the sofa, "I’m waiting for my parents to return, they’ll be back soon. We’ll see what happens after that."
Li Chaoxi’s dark eyes fixed on her, "So, are you really going to get married?"
