Reborn in 2000: Starting from Pursuing the Pure High School Beauty Desk Mate Chapter 275 : You couldnt have been kept by a wealthy woman,

Chapter 275: You couldn't have been kept by a wealthy woman, could you?

Chen Fan glared: "Whatever? You were in there for almost a year, and the person you thought about day and night was her, wasn't it?"

Guo Shuai lowered his head and said in a low voice: "With how I am now, I can understand her making this choice."

"Understand your ass! Guo, don't forget how you ended up in prison?"

"You went to prison for her sake, and now she's with another man. Does that make up for the ordeal you went through this past year?"

"Your life was ruined by this woman, and yet..."

Guo Shuai raised his head and grinned at Chen Fan.

"Brother Fan, thank you for saying all that for ."

"Actually... when I did those things back then, I didn't expect her to do anything for ..."

"At the ti, I really did love her. I did those things for her willingly."

"It shouldn't have beco an obligation, a transaction. I..."

Guo Shuai opened his mouth as if to say more, but ultimately said nothing.

He looked over at Liu Lingling across the way one more ti.

Guo Shuai smiled.

"Knowing she's okay, my heart is at ease."

"I wish her well."

He turned and said, "Let's go, Brother Fan, let's go back and keep drinking."

Chen Fan watched Guo Shuai's back, eventually sighed, shook his head, and followed.

Across the street.

The kiss ended, and Liu Lingling curiously looked up toward the darkness across the way.

For a mont just then, she felt like she had seen a shadow.

"What's wrong?" her boyfriend asked with a smile.

"Nothing, I just thought I saw soone over there."

"Soone?"

The guy turned to look, but the street across the way was empty. He joked, "You must be seeing things. There's no one there."

Liu Lingling smiled and shook her head. "I guess I was just seeing things."

She glanced across the street one more ti, then looked away, not thinking about it further.

"Get in the car, let's go. I got two theater tickets for tonight. And I'll introduce you to so big shots, maybe I can get you into the theater to dance."

"Really?"

Liu Lingling's face lit up with delight, and she proactively planted a kiss on his cheek.

"Thank you, you're so good to ."

"Heh heh, I'm so good to you, don't you think you should reward properly?"

As he said this, one of his hands groped at her chest.

Liu Lingling's pretty face turned a bit red, but she didn't get angry, instead saying coyly, "Aiya, you're so naughty."

"Heh heh, I just love that cute pouty look on your face."

As they got in the car, Liu Lingling's gaze turned back toward that spot across the street.

It was empty, without a single person there.

I guess I really was just imagining things.

...

Back at the hotel again, this ti Guo Shuai was chattier.

He pulled Chen Fan along to keep drinking quite a bit more, and after that insisted on going for a soak in the bath.

Chen Fan smiled and joined in on his friend's antics.

Although Guo Shuai didn't say it, as brothers for so many years, Chen Fan could tell that this incident really hurt him.

But he didn't expect that on this matter, Guo Shuai could cut it off so decisively.

If this had happened a year earlier, Guo Shuai would probably have gone berserk.

It seems the year he spent in prison really did change so things about him.

Bath, sauna, massage... Chen Fan arranged the whole package for Guo Shuai.

In the end, this guy ended up passing out on the massage table, and Chen Fan had to support him back to the room.

After watching Guo Shuai lying face down on the bed, snoring loudly, Chen Fan took out a cigarette from his pocket and went out to the balcony alone.

He took out his phone and called Su Ruochu.

"Hey, evening self-study is over, right?"

"Yeah. We finished drinking. This buddy Guo is totally drunk and passed out snoring."

"I'm fine, cough cough... I've been a good boy, haven't ssed with any of those sketchy won."

"Dear wife, let tell you sothing, I won't be coming ho tonight, going to stay and keep an eye on this guy."

"Mm-hmm. This guy's not in a great mood today..."

Chen Fan briefly told Su Ruochu about what had happened tonight.

Su Ruochu's voice ca through the phone.

"Then you should comfort him and keep an eye on him, don't let him do anything stupid."

Chen Fan nodded: "Don't worry. I'll watch over him."

"Mm-hmm. Then I'll go wash up."

"Good night."

"Good night."

After hanging up, Chen Fan stood on the balcony, lit a cigarette, turned to look at Guo Shuai snoring loudly on the bed, and let out a soft sigh.

The next day, when Guo Shuai woke up, it was already bright out.

Chen Fan was boredly watching TV nearby.

"You're up? You drank yourself into a stupor last night, I could barely support you."

Guo Shuai turned over and got out of bed, rubbing his slightly throbbing head.

"What ti is it?"

"Almost 10 am."

"It's been a long ti since I slept that late."

Guo Shuai stretched lazily.

"Brother Fan, why didn't you go ho last night?"

Chen Fan laughed and cursed: "I was afraid you'd do sothing stupid alone."

Guo Shuai was stunned, then smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"You an Liu Lingling?"

"It's all in the past."

"She made her choice, and I respect her choice, so that's that."

Chen Fan laughed.

"Guo, to be honest, I really didn't expect you to react this way."

Guo Shuai smiled but didn't respond.

"Alright, let's put the romantic drama aside for now, hurry up and wash, we'll go eat in a bit."

Guo Shuai scratched his head.

"Don't feel like moving today, let's have the staff pack up the food and bring it to the room."

Chen Fan rolled his eyes.

"Forget it, I'll just go get it. You were out cold last night, you didn't see the way that staff mber looked at when we were in the sa room..."

Guo Shuai laughed.

"You didn't take advantage of while I was asleep, did you?"

"Get lost!"

Chen Fan threw a pillow at him, got up to put on his shoes, and headed for the door.

"Just hurry up and wash up."

Chen Fan went downstairs to get lunch and brought it back up, and the two of them ate a simple al in the room.

After eating, Chen Fan tossed Guo Shuai a cigarette.

He lit it and took a greedy, deep drag.

"You don't know, this stuff was hard currency in there."

"Enough chit-chat. Let's talk business."

Chen Fan tapped his cigarette and looked up at Guo Shuai.

"So, what are your plans going forward?"

Guo Shuai hesitated slightly.

To be honest, in his current situation, it was basically impossible for him to go back to school.

His university days ended before they even began.

He wouldn't be able to get a graduation certificate, at most just a withdrawal certificate.

Still so young, unable to continue his studies, he'd probably have to go out and find a job.

Guo Shuai scratched his head: "Truthfully, I haven't really thought about it. Maybe I'll go back to Luocheng first..."

Chen Fan shook his head: "No need for Luocheng, I've got it all figured out for you, buddy."

"I may not be soone too capable, but I am a boss now, so arranging sothing for you is doable."

Chen Fan had no need to hide things from Guo Shuai.

"You've been to those two internet cafes before, if you're willing, I can hand one of them over for you to manage."

"And if you don't like that, I have a studio for developing ga hacks."

"There's also an internet company, and a club that's being prepped to open..."

"What do you say, what would you like to do? There's bound to be sothing that suits you."

Guo Shuai stared at Chen Fan in shock and disbelief.

"Where did you get all this money?"

"Brother Fan, what have you been up to this past year?"

"You couldn't have been kept by a wealthy woman, could you?"
