Chapter 13 - Chapter 013: I Don't Want You to Bring Trouble to Acquaintances

"Of course, it's the truth." Just as Tang Yu was about to poke his head out to explain, Gong Xiaoqiao violently stuffed him back.

To Gu Hangshen, however, it appeared to be an affectionate gesture.

"No way," Gu Hangshen blurted out.

Truly in love? She had said the same all those years ago, standing in front of him, solemnly swearing her true love for Qin Yao. Back then, he had been powerless to stop it, but he wouldn't let history repeat itself.

"And what's the reason I can't this time?" Gong Xiaoqiao scoffed.

"I just don't want you to trouble someone I know, that's all."

Gong Xiaoqiao's face darkened, and she began to roughly pinch Tang Yu's fair and delicate cheeks, "Give it up! Tang Yu himself is a disaster. I think we two disasters are quite a good match. Don't you think so, Tang Yu?"

"Can I say no..."

"Of course not!"

"Tang Yu, are you sure you want to be with her?" Gu Hangshen asked casually, looking at Tang Yu.

"Of course!" Gong Xiaoqiao answered for Tang Yu.

"Fine, from now on you are no longer a part of the Gu Corporation."

"Boss! No, please don't abandon me!" Tang Yu cried out in despair, almost as if he was about to cling to Gu Hangshen's legs.

"So, do you choose me, or her?" Gu Hangshen asked with a seductive smile.

"Of course I choose the boss!" Tang Yu answered decisively.

How can that question sound so ambiguous! Gu Hangshen, could it be you're actually in love with Tang Yu...

"You heard him, this is the man you chose?" Gu Hangshen looked at her, seemingly mocking her for her consistently poor judgment in people.

"Boss, that's unfair! I'm not Xiaoqiao's man; she and I don't even have the slightest connection," Tang Yu protested.

"Tang Yu's right, we don't have any connection, not even a single cent's worth," Gong Xiaoqiao huffed, her chest tight with indignation. It was all a joke at first, but Gu Hangshen's domineering attitude had really set her off.

"Sister Xiaoqiao, could you please stop causing me trouble, okay? Boss, my mom is forcing me to go on blind dates, but I like Xiaojing and don't want to marry someone else. I had no choice but to ask Xiaoqiao to put on a show!"

At the critical moment, Tang Yu's survival instinct kicked in, and he became eloquent and coherent.

"You ungrateful wretch! Don't expect me to help you next time." Gong Xiaoqiao kicked him, then turned and walked away.

She hadn't gone far when she realized someone was following her.

"Did you twist your ankle?"

She continued walking.

"Shall I carry you?"

She ignored him.

"Are you angry?"

"..."

This man can change his face faster than flipping a book!

Gu Hangshen: "Jinmulin has a concert on Wednesday, and I have a few tickets."

Gong Xiaoqiao's eyes lit up at once, and she immediately turned around, "Where are the tickets?"

"Aren't you tired standing like that? Come here."

"Give me the tickets first, then I'll give you a piggyback ride."

"..." Is this considered a trade?

"I really don't understand why you young girls always go for those androgynous men!"

Gong Xiaoqiao snatched the tickets and cheerfully hopped onto his back, "It's necessary that you don't get it, I have a generational gap with you."

Over the years, she'd thrown her share of tantrums at Gu Hangshen, but they always came and went swiftly, and with a little sweetening up, she'd brighten up in no time.

"Gu Hangshen, I thought you especially hated it when I chased after Jinmulin. Why would you give me this?"

"If I give it to you, just take it. Why ask so many questions? I haven't even settled the score with you for making trouble with Tang Yu. Even if you didn't want to go to Hannian's birthday party, there was no need to resort to this method of avoidance. Anything you ask for, when have I not complied?"

"Ugh, you're so annoying; you just have to expose me, don't you?"

"Be smart enough for me not to find out, or else stay honest with me."
