Chapter 1068: Chapter 1067: Get Out
Tang the secretary’s expression suddenly became a bit awkward. It’s true; you can’t afford to offend anyone but Little Gu. She asked quietly, "Are you going to Miss Song’s place today?"
"Yes, of course." Gu Anxi said with a smile, "There’s nothing much to do at home. Taking Chen Ming out for a stroll would be good too."
Tang the secretary just thought she was quite mean, Chen Ming is so miserable, Song Jia is so miserable, the boss behind will probably be even more miserable...
At six in the evening, Gu Anxi and Chen Ming appeared again at Song Jia’s hotel room door. Song Jia was expressionless: "Gu Anxi, don’t you have food at your home?"
Gu Anxi responded with a casual "Oh," "My uncle is not around, and after thinking it over, I just find you the cutest."
Song Jia looked grumpy, reluctantly let them in, and sat down just to dial room service, putting down the phone rudely saying: "Once you’re finished eating, get lost."
Gu Anxi clicked her tongue twice: "See, so fierce. I even brought cards, let’s play with the three of us."
Song Jia glared at her.
Gu Anxi smiled cheerfully: "Gu Anxi, I don’t have time to play with you."
"Ah, I thought you quite liked me." Gu Anxi said to herself, looking like a baby, quite popular that kind, Song Jia had never seen her being so shameless, saying why does she always bring Chen Ming over, it’s intentional, right?
Today, Song Jia was already prepared, wearing home clothes instead of a bathrobe, maybe foreseeing that these two shameless ones would come over.
Gu Anxi went over to sit down, adeptly shuffled the cards, "Anyway, since we’re waiting for the meal, let’s play for a while."
Chen Ming was the first to say that he didn’t play very well, Gu Anxi smiled cheerfully: "I’ll let you win."
Song Jia went over, unconvinced: "Quite the boast, not sure who’s letting whom win."
She prided herself on her good card skills, thinking of giving Gu Anxi a lesson so she wouldn’t dare to be so smug anymore, really quite annoying, but after a few rounds, Song Jia sat up straighter, took a look at Gu Anxi, and had no words to say!
This can’t be right!
Just half an hour waiting for food, Gu Anxi effortlessly won a lot of money from her, but Chen Ming, who was not good, managed to break even. She glared at Gu Anxi: "You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?"
Gu Anxi smiled cheerfully: "Ah, is it?"
She then said: "Chen Ming still needs to save up for marriage, how could I win his money, besides his salary is only so much, it’s best to catch a rich HA’O."
Song Jia leaned against the sofa back, picking at her delicate nail, stayed silent, just thought back to the day Chen Ming brought her a necklace, she threw it away and told him he had nothing, what could he use to support her.
She stayed quiet all along; Chen Ming probably guessed what she was thinking, gave a slight smile, said nothing.
Things had passed for so long, there was really no need to bring it up again.
Like this, both were silent, Gu Anxi looked at one, then the other, and smiled... During dinner, they were quiet too, but later they played cards again until nine in the evening when Gu Anxi checked the time and felt it was about right to leave, Chen Ming unexpectedly said: "You go downstairs first, I’ll come down later."
Gu Anxi crossed her arms, "Private talk, eh?"
Chen Ming’s face was somewhat flushed, "Just have some things to say."
Gu Anxi nodded: "Okay, I’ll go down first."
She patted Chen Ming, spoke impressively: "Don’t make any big mistakes."
Chen Ming’s old face turned bright red.
Gu Anxi then let him go, and stepped out first.
After she left, the room was silent, Song Jia leaned back on the sofa playing with a cushion, casually asked: "Is there anything else you want to say?"
Chen Ming hesitated before turning around, silently stared at her for a while until Song Jia looked up, he then said a bit awkwardly: "I don’t know why Anxi comes over every day, actually I don’t mean anything by it."
Song Jia was a bit impatient: "Why say this to me? Don’t want me to misunderstand, or want to tell me you have a girlfriend?"
Chen Ming lowered his eyes: "No."
He didn’t know why he said this, perhaps just afraid he had unconsciously hurt her before, but now seeing her not looking hurt, it’s true, how could he, Chen Ming hurt her? She didn’t care about him at all.
Chen Ming adjusted his mood, looked around, then said: "In any case, as a girl outside you must take care, especially since you’re not with your brother."
Song Jia took a deep breath, her nose a bit sore, after a moment she turned her head to look out the window, quietly said: "We don’t have a relation now, save these words for your... kindergarten teacher."
Hearing this, Chen Ming’s breath got hot, chest slightly heaving, Song Jia turned around glaring at him: "Get angry and get out; don’t do it here with me."
After speaking, a cushion was thrown over, right onto Chen Ming’s face.
He was a bit dumbfounded, then good-naturedly picked it up, dusted it off before handing it back to her, still speaking warm and calming: "Don’t flare up so easily, it speeds up aging."
Song Jia jumped up on the sofa in anger, "I’m not even thirty yet."
This jump made them closer without realizing it, he caught her around the waist with one hand.
A very slim and thin waist, he could embrace it with one arm. Her body fell against his; due to practicing martial arts, his body was hard as iron, she tried to struggle, Chen Ming’s hoarse voice sounded: "You also practice martial arts, why is your body so soft?"
At the moment, his face was right near her shoulder, just a stretch of his hand could pull her down.
Song Jia was somewhat annoyed, struggled briefly but couldn’t break free, angered she retorted: "Chen Ming, what are you doing, let go of me."
Chen Ming still held her waist, looking uncertain. After a while, he hoarsely opened his mouth: "Don’t stand on the sofa, come down."
With that, he single-handedly lifted her off the sofa, as soon as her feet hit the ground, Song Jia gave him a slap, though not too hard, she moved back, breath slightly uneven: "Get out."
Chen Ming looked at her: "I won’t do anything to you! Don’t worry."
With that, he walked to the room door, opened it and prepared to leave, but somehow he turned back around—
Song Jia stood there straight, eyes somewhat red...
At that moment, his heart felt like it was shocked by electricity.
He wanted to go over, wipe away her tears, but his feet wouldn’t move. He had... a girlfriend now, though just newly confirmed, he couldn’t be trashy.
After a long while, he lightly said: "I’ll leave first."
Song Jia didn’t make a sound, quietly watched him open the door and leave.
Once he had gone, she started throwing cushions, while throwing she was extremely angry: "Bastard, jerk, who does he think he is..."
