Chapter 727: Chapter 728: He ssed Up Everything
The countess was greatly surprised.
She glanced at Li Zhiqian once more. “Jason, isn’t Miss Xia your fiancée?”
A hurt expression crossed Li Zhiqian’s face. “I wasn’t ready, I thought the timing was right, I was going to have a sincere discussion with her. She’s a kind and lovely girl, which is why many people like her.”
They all looked at Li Zhiqian, his expression prompting sympathy.
Clearly, he was unaware that this was going to happen.
Just as he was succeeding, a wrench was thrown in his plans.
Such a feeling must have been very uncomfortable.
At this mont, Anna walked over to Li Zhiqian.
Seeing the pain on Li Zhiqian’s face, Anna felt very upset as well.
She comforted him in her broken Chinese, “Jason, Out with the old, in with the new. It’s like your Chinese saying, ‘When the old doesn’t leave, the new won’t co.’ Don’t be sad, you’re a nice person. I can be your girlfriend.”
Anna’s words stunned the Countess, her husband, and Xi Zijun.
Fortunately, the French people around them didn’t understand Chinese.
But Xi Zijun was quite surprised.
Li Zhiqian did turn out to be an impressive character.
Whether he was pretending or truly interested in Xia Yangyang, he certainly won the little princess Anna’s heart at the first eting.
It seems this competitor should not be underestimated.
After Xia Yangyang ran out of the hall, she didn’t stop running.
She wasn’t sure where she was headed.
Not that she was angry.
What just happened was unexpected.
But she wasn’t out of control either.
It was when she looked at Li Zhiqian.
Li Zhiqian signaled her with a look to run out.
Xia Yangyang knew that staying at the event wouldn’t resolve the situation and would only make things more awkward.
And who knew what Gu Qichen might do next.
Li Zhiqian indicated that she should flee the scene, which was a relief for Xia Yangyang.
After Xia Yangyang left, she ant to find Li Zhiqian’s car.
However, when she got outside, she found herself in a garden maze.
After wandering for a while, she completely lost her way.
She was utterly lost…
A real case of ‘it never rains but it pours.’
But Gu Qichen had followed her all the way.
Keeping a distance of about two ters behind Xia Yangyang.
When Xia Yangyang reached a dead-end at a floral wall, she finally stopped, turned around and said, “Gu Qichen, you’ve ruined everything today.”
Gu Qichen simply stood there, gazing solemnly at Xia Yangyang.
There was still the lingering anger on Xia Yangyang.
But it seed that Gu Qichen’s anger had completely dissipated.
What remained was a thick layer of sadness and helplessness.
Speaking in a solemn voice, Gu Qichen said, “I know that I screwed everything up, but Yangyang, I couldn’t help it, I cannot bear to see you marrying another man.”
Gu Qichen looked very sad, and his icy, sharp deanor was replaced by sorrow.
A sorrow so deep, it was painful to see.
Xia Yangyang said dismissively, “Idiot, it was all fake.”
Sothing seed to flicker in Gu Qichen’s eyes.
He took two steps toward Xia Yangyang, “What do you an, what was fake?”
Xia Yangyang suddenly felt like she had misspoken.
This was Li Zhiqian’s business matter.
Even though Xia Yangyang did not understand how proposing could boost their business.
Given that Xi Zijun and Li Zhiqian were business rivals,
She knew she couldn’t say too much.
Xia Yangyang shrugged, “Anyway, the proposal was fake. It was all just play-acting. But now, you’ve ruined it.”
