Quan Jin waited nervously for her response.
He’s already put his pride aside to this extent, she wouldn’t still be mad at him, right?
"Gu Xueli, I’ve said so much, do you understand how I feel?" he asked anxiously.
Gu Yuan’s mood was quite complicated, involving many aspects.
Seeing Quan Jin getting impatient, she finally said, "I never reach out to you first, and you wouldn’t take the initiative to find . Our relationship is all determined by you, leaving completely passive, isn’t it? Today, you’re urgently confessing your feelings to , it’s only because you saw with another man, you’re just feeling upset about it."
"Yes! I’m upset, seeing you with another man talking, laughing, it made very upset, but this upset feeling is because I’m jealous, jealous over you. Don’t you understand?" he explained urgently, a bit annoyed.
This woman seems to not understand at all.
"Jealous? We’ve only known each other for how long, and you’re jealous because you saw with another man. Should I say I have too much charm, or should I say you lack sensibility?" Gu Yuan teased with a laugh.
However, those words provoked Quan Jin.
His brief calmness vanished.
Staring at Gu Yuan as if he could shoot fire from his eyes in the next second: "You woman, how should I express myself so that you understand what I an?"
Gu Yuan looked at him sideways: "Let give you an example, maybe it’s the sa as your current situation."
He frowned, "What example?"
Gu Yuan said calmly, "Your liking for is like the item you added to your shopping cart. You liked it when you first added it, but the longer you delay purchasing, the less desire you have to buy it. But if one day the note says the item is about to go out of stock, you urgently want to own it. To you, I’m just like the item in your shopping cart. See, doesn’t this example fit?"
"What a load of crap!" he retorted without good humor. "So, in your view, my liking for you, Gu Xueli, is that cheap?"
Gu Yuan raised her eyebrows, "Isn’t it?"
Quan Jin was at a loss for words; her words seed to have a point.
The light in the suite was bright, but it was oppressive.
Gu Yuan pressed a button from sowhere, and the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling window automatically drew open slowly, letting in bright light, easing the oppressive feeling.
She raised her wristwatch to take a look, it was almost twelve noon.
The main reason for this trip to Yanjing was to pick up her daughter, but now with things at a standstill, Gu Yuan felt like she’d have to change her plan again.
Quan Jian noticed her checking the ti and his face grew even darker, "In a hurry to leave?"
Gu Yuan looked at him, "What else? Stay and have lunch with you?"
"Why not, but it’s not just accompanying. I’m inviting you," he said, pulling out his phone from his pocket, scrolling through the screen as he spoke, "Anyway, since you’re here, you et an old lover and act like this, you really hurt , you know? And yet, I’m still inviting you for lunch to please you."
Gu Yuan watched him leisurely, "Should I also say ’thank you for your hard work’?"
Quan Jin let out a cold laugh, in a self-mocking tone, "It’s not hard work, it’s just bad luck for ."
Gu Yuan: "..."
He was ordering food on his phone but didn’t ask her what she wanted, choosing dishes from a Michelin five-star restaurant. He didn’t plan to take her out to eat, so it would be delivered to the hotel.
He threw his phone onto the sofa, everything needed was in the presidential suite. He went to the fridge to get two bottles of spezi, opening one and offering it considerately to Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan didn’t take it, saying, "I don’t drink it, I should leave."
His face remained calm. This uncooperative woman in front of him was infuriating, yet he couldn’t scold or force her, fearing that resentnt from last ti would accumulate and make her dislike him even more.
Otherwise, by his plan, he would already be ’eating’ her now.
"I’ve already ordered food, didn’t I just say that? Since you ran into in Yanjing, isn’t it courteous to accept my al invitation? Do I have to beg you?" His tone wasn’t quite friendly, but he wasn’t furious.
Then he handed the soda to her once more.
Gu Yuan: "I don’t drink this."
Quan Jin asked with uncharacteristic patience, "What do you want to drink, then?"
Gu Yuan: "What I want isn’t here. Would you go out and buy it for ?"
He laughed, asking her, "Gu Xueli, do you take for a fool? If I leave, would that make it easier for you to slip away? Do you really dislike seeing so much!!"
Gu Yuan paused.
He realized sothing she hadn’t even thought of.
She just wanted to see how accommodating he could be to Gu Xueli...
"I won’t leave," she spoke the truth.
Then she sat down on the leather chair by the window, put her bag on the low table, and while at it, reached into her bag to turn off her phone.
