LargeEight Western Restaurant in the 1862 Old Shipyard in Lujiazui. Xia Qing looked happy when she saw Gu Yu coming in, but when she thought about what happened before, her expression became complicated again.
Gu Yu walked to Xia Qing's table under the guidance of the waiter. Today she is wearing a beige knitted long skirt, paired with skin-colored pantyhose and Martin boots.
"I didn't expect you to come. After what happened last time, I thought we would never contact each other again." Xia Qing broke the silence.
"It's been a month, and I thought you wouldn't contact me again. Do you have anything to do with me today?" Gu Yu looked calm.
"I watched the live broadcast of the match between you and Qiao Jingjing," Xia Qing said with a self-deprecating smile on her face.
"When you were with her, you were gentle and patient. You were willing to accommodate her and play games with her." The more Xia Qing said it, the more sad she felt. Comparing the two, she felt even more like she was nothing.
"If you like someone, you will naturally be willing to make sacrifices for them."
"What about me? Don't you have any feelings for me?" Xia Qing was a little excited, but after meeting Gu Yu's slightly indifferent eyes, her heart trembled and she calmed down.
"You contacted me this time to become a strategic partner with Encore Capital and Yucheng Capital, right?" Xia Qing fell silent. She knew in her heart that her feelings for Gu Yu always had preconditions.
"Come with me, we can't talk about anything here." Gu Yu stood up and left. Xia Qing showed hesitation, holding her skirt tightly with her hands, but finally followed.
Gu Yu drove Xia Qing home. When the car parked in the garage, Gu Yu became wild. Xia Qing lay in Gu Yu's arms, with obvious red marks on her fair skin.
"I always remember the way you looked at me in high school, with contempt and disdain." Gu Yu said to himself, and Xia Qing in his arms trembled.
"You and Qiao Jingjing have very different attitudes towards me. Maybe it was from that time that the seeds of cause and effect were planted. Before we reconnected, I wanted to forget about my student days, but you made me see that reality again. Xia Qing." Listening to Gu Yu's words, Xia Qing couldn't help but shed tears. She didn't know if she was doing the right thing, but she just wanted a better life.
"It is really not easy for a woman with no background to move from a small county town to Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen. It is not easy to settle down and enjoy a high-quality life. I will give you a choice. Follow me. You will have enough food and clothing. You can live in a villa, drive a luxury car, and have a successful career. Others Envy, but nameless and statusless." Gu Yu made it clear to Xia Qing straightforwardly. Xia Qing stood up and looked at Gu Yu blankly. This was definitely not what she wanted.
"I don't know how many women want to have this kind of life. You can also choose not to contact me anymore. I will never force it, but you have to face the reality alone."
"If you choose the first option or the second option, you can leave." After Gu Yu finished speaking, he put his hands on his head and closed his eyes to rest.
Xia Qing's surrender was more helpless. As long as she had desires, she could not leave Gu Yu. As for love, Gu Yu doesn't need to get it from Xia Qing.
At the end of the year, both Gu Yu and Qiao Jingjing started to get busy. As an actress, Qiao Jingjing had to attend various parties, award ceremonies, and take photos and posters.
Gu Yu is busy with Yucheng Capital's year-end summary and setting goals for next year. Of course, people in the company and the industry discovered that Gu Yu was often accompanied by a beautiful woman recently.
After asking about it, I found out that although he was young and beautiful, he was already the regional vice president of Encore Capital and was an old classmate of Mr. Gu, with whom he had a good relationship.
"What are your arrangements for the New Year?" Xia Qing lazily rested her head on Gu Yu's arm, her face still flushed.
"I haven't been back to Yixing for a long time, and I plan to go back with Jingjing. It just so happens that Yucheng Capital is planning to sign an investment project with the local government to put Monster Charge's downstream processing plant in Wuxi. What about you?" After hearing Gu Yu's words, Xia Although Qing has gradually accepted it, it is inevitable that she will still show her displeasure.
"I don't want to go back. Every year my family is urging me to get married. My relatives ask questions and always want me to help introduce jobs or borrow money. They also like to gossip."
"This is for you, Happy New Year." Gu Yu took out a bunch of car keys from the bedside table.
"Ferrari?" Xia Qing was a little surprised.
"Roma, red." Gu Yu said and kissed her.
"Does this car cost more than two million?"
"Almost, you've been doing well during this period. This is a New Year's gift. The license plate transfer has been completed and the car is parked in the garage." Xia Qing's previous unhappiness quickly disappeared and she pressed her body against Gu Yu to please him. Acting coquettishly.
"I said that if you follow me, you will enjoy a high-quality life. I am not short of money, so why bother with my own woman? I also bought two high-rise apartments with Riverview in this community. You and my real estate agent Contact me and choose a property to transfer ownership. Find a designer to design and decorate it yourself." The car worth more than two million yuan in front of her already made Xia Qing happy, but the house worth more than thirty million yuan in the back knocked her out.
Just look at Xia Qing with spring in her eyes and a charming smile. Gu Yu closed his eyes, feeling extremely proud. The arrogant monitor in high school now looked like a well-behaved cat in front of him.
The next day, Xia Qing changed her mind and wanted to go back this year. It was not for any other reason than to return home if she was rich and honorable. Now she could go back and show off.
He also told Gu Yu that he also thought that when he was in Yixing, he would not just accompany the doctor. Soon, it was New Year's Eve. Gu Yu gave the driver and bodyguard a day off and drove a red Aston Martin dbS.
It’s Chinese New Year, be a little festive. Gu Yu parked the car in the underground parking lot where Qiao Jingjing attended the Spring Festival Gala. He had contacted Sister Ling before.
When Qiao Jingjing came to the parking lot accompanied by her assistant Xiao Zhu, she saw Gu Yu smiling and waving to her. She smiled sweetly and immediately ran over and threw herself into Gu Yu's arms.
"Why are you here? Didn't you say that you have a project going to Europe?"
"I lied to you. During the Chinese New Year this year, I will accompany you home."
"Really?" Qiao Jingjing raised her head with a look of surprise on her face, her eyes shining.
"Really, I gave the driver a holiday, and I haven't been back for many years. Recently, Yucheng Capital wants to invest in Wuxi."
"Great!" Qiao Jingjing didn't pay much attention to the explanation behind it. Gu Yu could just spend more time with her. Soon, Qiao Jingjing said goodbye to her assistant, sat in Gu Yu's passenger seat, and the two of them drove towards Yixing.
