Chapter 156: She Has Matured!
Just as he walked out of the restaurant, Mo Xiao received a phone call from Shi Tianming. "Wife, I've found a job. A big company is short of drivers, and it pays for three meals a day, as well as car and gas fares."
Hearing Shi Tianming's excited voice, Mo Xiao was not surprised at all. She casually said a few words to him before hanging up.
"Could it be Gu Kuangen again?" Mo Xiao frowned.
Just where did Gu Kuangen come from? When those photos were sent to her, Mo Xiao had already checked online.
Gu Kuangen's grandfather could be considered the second generation of the Hong family. Although his grandfather had passed away a long time ago, there was still a third great-uncle who was still working in the main residence and had great power.
Gu Kuangen and his father did not hold any official positions, but they were also influential figures in the business world.
Especially Gu Kuangen. At such a young age, he had already become one of the top ten most influential businessmen in Country Z according to a financial magazine in Country M.
And now, Shi Tianming had found such a good job. Was it because of Gu Kuangen?
Thinking of this, Mo Xiao felt a wave of annoyance. An indescribable complex emotion surged in her heart.
Shi Caining sat in the car and looked at the night scenery that flashed by outside the car window.
The night in the city was exceptionally beautiful.
Although her mood was a little bad, it was slightly better because of Gu Kuangen.
When the car stopped in the garage of the villa, Gu Kuangen silently unfastened her seatbelt and held her down with one hand.
Shi Caining turned her head in surprise.
She met Gu Kuangen's burning eyes.
Gu Kuangen had already unfastened his seatbelt and his entire body was leaning towards her.
He hugged her shoulders and stretched out his hand to gently touch her slightly long bangs behind her ears. He looked at the scar at the corner of her eyes.
Gu Kuangen raised her chin. "Shi Caining, why don't... You be my real girlfriend? Not the temporary kind."
Shi Caining's eyelashes trembled. The car's space was very private and Gu Kuangen rolled up the window.
The temperature in the car suddenly increased. She could even feel his breath behind her ear. It tickled and made her body go numb.
Shi Caining shook her head. She bit her lips and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Gu Kuangen, thank you... For solving my problem. But... If I were to truly be with you, I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of? Didn't you say that you wouldn't be afraid of the future?" Gu Kuangen's body pressed against hers and gently brushed against her hair. His thin lips kissed her hair.
If he got too close, he could smell the faint scent on her body.
There was the fragrance of shampoo, as well as her own fragrance.
Shi Caining lowered her eyes. "We... Are not from the same world..."
Even though Mo Xiao did not object, she still felt that she was not worthy of Gu Kuangen.
Gu Kuangen's eyes darkened, and the corners of his lips curled up in ridicule. "Shi Caining, you're really not qualified as a psychologist. When humans first existed, they didn't have any status. In my eyes, if you can cure my anorexia, you're already worthy of me."
Shi Caining pursed her lips tightly, not saying a word.
"I... I don't want to fall in love too soon," Shi Caining said softly.
Gu Kuangen's gentleness and fanaticism made her a little afraid.
She knew that once she fell in love with this man, she would probably... Fall even deeper than Qiao Chengchuan.
Qiao Chengchuan was her first love. At that time, love was very simple and beautiful.
But now, she had matured.
