Chapter 651: Chapter 652: Ten Years in the Cold Kiln, He Remains Chaste for Her
Gu Qichen knew that for Xi Zijun, the purpose of their engagent was to prove to Alexander, the Earl and his wife, that she had strong backing and could secure the wine agency rights.
She got what she wanted
The guilt in Gu Qichen’s heart diminished slightly.
Xi Zijun continued, “There’s another troubleso matter, and I need your help.”
“Say it, as long as I can do it, I will promise you as a compensation for breaking our engagent,” he replied.
“In half a month, the Earl and his wife are holding an adult ceremony for their daughter at their mansion. We’ve been invited, the agency still needs to go through so formalities. Even though they have eyes on , there were still many wine rchants involved in the competition previously. The other rchants have also been invited. So, if you have ti that day, I hope you can co with since everyone still thinks we are engaged. The Earl and his wife value your capabilities and the strength behind you.”
Gu Qichen agreed instantly. “Don’t worry, unless there is a cot hitting the earth, I won’t break my promise this ti.”
Xi Zijun laughed. “It’s rare to see you making jokes.”
The way Gu Qichen and Xi Zijun got along was very natural and relaxing.
Over the years, they had beco good business partners.
Xi Zijun was indeed a formidable figure. She was smart, decisive, and adept in the business world.
Besides the feelings of friendship for her, Gu Qichen felt mainly admiration and respect.
Having discussed the business matter, Xi Zijun didn’t rush to leave.
She walked over to the sofa, squatted down, and looked at the child. “This kid looks so similar to you, as though he was carved out of the sa mould.”
He had heard these words so many tis recently that his ears were almost producing callus.
“He’s my son,” Gu Qichen suddenly said.
There was a sense of pride in his voice, as if it was natural for his son to look like him.
“I know he’s your son. Look at how happy you are,” Xi Zijun teased.
Xi Zijun stood up. “Ah Chen, Miss Xia is back with a son this big. What are you planning to do? Also, does she know about your relationship with Miss Zhang? As your friend, I must remind you that a woman’s jealousy can be frightening. You need to explain clearly. You should also break things off with Miss Zhang, or else it will bring you trouble in the future.”
Gu Qichen laughed, “Thank you for reminding .”
Xi Zijun shrugged, “Actually, I’m only doing this out of kindness. I’m just afraid that these issues might disrupt our business dealings.”
“Don’t worry, I will handle it properly.”
Xi Zijun had a cup of tea in the office before she left.
Gu Qichen sank into deep thought.
Although he and Xi Zijun were close friends who shared everything, over the years, it was she who stood by his side, encouraged him, helped him, and even counseled him, as they strived for success together.
Her contribution to Shengyuan’s expansion to its current scale was indispensable.
However, none of those around him, beside Fang Zhengdong, knew about his real relationship with Zhang Xinyi.
Even Xi Zijun thought that Zhang Xinyi was his mistress who had accompanied him for three years and even aborted a child for him.
But the fact is…
Many things, Gu Qichen did not want to and could not explain.
He did not care about the rumors in dia and the public.
Even after all these years, he had turned into a playboy in people’s eyes.
As for Xia Yangyang…
He would never explain to her either.
What’s there to explain? She had many n by her side over these years, even getting engaged and living with Xiao Han.
This woman was no longer the Xia Yangyang from the past.
He wished she misunderstood him.
Why should he stay faithful for her when she did not?
And her?
Did she ever appreciate his kindness?
It seed she had forgotten it all.
Every ti he thought of Xia Yangyang being intimate with other n just like they had been…
Gu Qichen felt like murdering soone.
