Why is she crying while talking?
But that’s just Bai Yun’s usual nature.
Gu Qiaoqiao picked up a paper napkin from the coffee table and handed it over, patiently saying, "Don’t be upset, there are guests outside. If they see you, it’s not good for you."
When Bai Yun heard this, she realized she was being inappropriate. She quickly took the napkin and wiped her tears, apologetically saying, "Sorry, I lost my composure."
"From what you say, the problem seems to lie with Shang You. Why don’t you just ask him directly?"
"I called him, but after a mont of silence, he hung up on and then went back to the base..."
Gu Qiaoqiao pondered for a mont, looking at Bai Yun, who was genuinely upset. Gu Qiaoqiao pursed her red lips.
It seems Bai Yun really likes Shang Qing’s third brother.
Gu Qiaoqiao had t Shang Qing’s third brother as well; he was a tall and handso young soldier. Though not as outstanding as Qin Yize, he was still impressive.
Bai Yun seems to be able to handle things, unlike Lin Qinghuan, who is so stubborn that she puts herself in a bind.
However, this is a private matter between Bai Yun and Shang You, and Gu Qiaoqiao doesn’t want to get involved.
Regarding Bai Yun’s character, she remains observant. She’s close with Shang Qing, but doesn’t know much about Shang Qing’s third brother.
Gu Qiaoqiao doesn’t want to end up like Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror, disliked by everyone.
At this point, Gu Qiaoqiao beca a bit impatient, but she couldn’t just kick Bai Yun out. After all, Bai Yun’s uncle was outside, and Uncle Zhang’s wife was a good person too; she had to show them respect.
Reluctantly, Gu Qiaoqiao looked at Bai Yun and slowly said, "Bai Yun, isn’t there so misunderstanding here? From Shang Qing’s character, she wouldn’t interfere with your relationship with Shang You. Besides, Shang You is no longer a child, how could she interfere? Not even parents can control this. I think you should ask Shang You properly; there must be so misunderstanding here."
Bai Yun stared at Gu Qiaoqiao, wondering to herself, is that really the case?
Is Shang Qing not involved at all?
Then why did Shang You suddenly change his attitude? What could the misunderstanding be?
Gu Qiaoqiao saw Bai Yun didn’t respond and had to continue, "Think about it carefully, isn’t there anything between you two left unsaid? Frankly, I advise you to directly ask Shang You, the person involved. You’ll know what’s going on once you ask."
"But I called him, and he doesn’t answer. He lets others tell he’s busy, and he doesn’t want to deal with anymore."
Bai Yun said sorrowfully.
Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but sigh deeply. Bai Yun truly seed heartbroken this ti; otherwise, she wouldn’t show such a helpless side in front of her rival. She used to maintain superiority, but now, she’s as humble as dust for a man.
"What do you want to do? How can I help with this? It seems inappropriate for to get involved, right?"
Gu Qiaoqiao had to helplessly ask repeatedly.
Bai Yun stopped crying, her eyes full of hope as she looked at Gu Qiaoqiao. She had already abandoned her image because she couldn’t think of another way. "Qiaoqiao, can you arrange for Shang Qing to et ? The three of us could have a al together. I want Shang Qing to help find out what’s going on, since they are siblings and closer than I am."
"Why don’t you just ask his parents at the Shang Family? By the way, the Old Master Shang has a lot of say at ho, you can go directly to him..." Gu Qiaoqiao suggested.
"I’ve lost face enough asking Shang Qing. If I go knocking on their door, how would I hold my head high in front of him later?"
That’s true; people say initiative can lower one’s value, being too proactive only invites disdain.
Bai Yun has always been smart and wouldn’t make a losing deal, hence seeking out Gu Qiaoqiao.
As long as Gu Qiaoqiao agreed to find Shang Qing, Shang Qing would take it seriously. With Gu Qiaoqiao in the middle, Shang Qing wouldn’t show her disdain.
Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but admire these clever girls; each more shrewd than the last, all expert negotiators.
But Gu Qiaoqiao also found it odd. Bai Yun and Shang You must have been getting along well.
Otherwise, Bai Yun wouldn’t be this heartbroken.
Why did Shang You suddenly beco so cold?
Could it be that this man has fallen for soone else, or perhaps he heard so rumors...
Gu Qiaoqiao glanced at Bai Yun. So girls look beautiful when they cry, and Bai Yun was one of them. A teardrop clung to her curled lashes, her appearance resembling a fragile beauty in tears.
It was hard not to feel sympathy.
Moreover, Bai Yun is smart; with Shang You, she is attentive, not daring to be careless, as the Old Master Bai is watching her. She long ago stopped being the old Bai Yun.
After all, Shang You is an outstanding man.
She naturally wouldn’t let such a man slip by.
There are plenty of spoiled, lazy, and unambitious ones too.
Therefore, Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t determine why Shang You was distancing himself from Bai Yun.
She naturally wouldn’t express any opinions on this matter.
But Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t want these two to end badly, with Bai Yun blaming Shang Qing for intervening.
Shang Qing, that silly girl, is currently enjoying a sweet romance with Dongfang Yu, unaware of anything...
"Then wait a mont, I’ll call Shang Qing. Although it’s the weekend, I’m not sure if she’s ho; we haven’t talked much these days."
Saying this, Gu Qiaoqiao stood up. Bai Yun also stood up, gratefully saying, "Qiaoqiao, thank you so much."
Gu Qiaoqiao waved her hand, "I’m not sure if this will succeed, so don’t thank yet."
"Even so, thank you for not holding a grudge," Bai Yun said sincerely.
Gu Qiaoqiao lightly glanced at her. Whether true or feigned, the words were acceptable, at least she placed herself correctly.
Seeking help naturally requires the deanor of asking for help.
So Gu Qiaoqiao picked up the phone and called Shang Qing, surprisingly, Shang Qing answered. What a coincidence.
Shang Qing chattered on the other side, "...Qiaoqiao, I was just about to call you. Let’s hang out tomorrow. I haven’t seen you in days; I miss you."
"Seems like you’re enjoying yourself and hardly thinking about ," Gu Qiaoqiao jokingly replied.
"I really miss you. Recently, Grandpa’s old friend ca from abroad to visit him, brought such delicious chocolates. I saved two boxes for you; let’s et tomorrow,"
