C28 Become Familiar

Since Gu Qianbei saved Soong Qingnuan, the two became more familiar with each other.

Although he had a way to contact her, Gu Qianbei never took the initiative to call her. As usual, he sent three text messages every day as if he was afraid that something bad would happen to her again.

That day, Soong Qingnuan sat in an elegant coffee shop, waiting for her old friend.

She was a rich young miss who had just come back from overseas and was also one of the few friends she had in university who had a good relationship with.

To tell the truth, the moment Soong Qingnuan decided to ask her out, her fingers trembled slightly and she stopped tapping on the screen of her phone.

After the bankruptcy of Soong Family, almost no one was willing to interact with her, even if they were to participate in banquets they would only hurriedly say a few words before changing the topic, leaving her with countless perfunctory answers.

She wasn't an idiot, and due to her personality, she didn't want to continue pestering him, so she had no choice but to switch her focus to someone else.

It was said that she had invested abroad with her partners and established a company with a great income. Soong Qingnuan considered the fact that although she and Anne were not inseparable in university, they had conversed several times, hoping that the other party would remember their relationship and give her face.

Sitting in the coffee shop, she practiced her opening remarks over and over again.

"Phew …"

Soong Qingnuan exhaled a breath of cold air and walked towards the door from time to time, but she did not see a single person.

Suddenly, a message came over her phone. It was a greeting from Gu Qianbei.

"Where are you?"

She didn't think too much into it. As usual, she reported her location, placed her phone on the table, and continued to wait for Anne's arrival.

However, the next message was quickly sent. It was still from Gu Qianbei. Since she still had time, she might as well focus on chatting with him.

Time flew by on the tips of her fingers. When it was past the appointed time, Anne sent a text message.

"I'm sorry, I have temporary matters to attend to abroad. I'm already on the plane and will be in touch if I have the chance."

Her eyes darkened, and the last bit of hope she had burned out as she tiredly put down her phone.

No matter how many text messages she sent, she didn't continue replying. Soong Qingnuan's mood was already almost ruined.

This was the reason why she was rejected by thousands of times. She never thought that Anne would use such a method to avoid her, so she prepared to leave in a cold manner.

After Soong Qingnuan came out of the café, she looked up and realized it was already late. She sighed helplessly and prepared to pack up her emotions to go home to Soong Jun when she suddenly received a call.

"Him again?"

She looked at the words "Gu Qianbei" on the screen and was confused.

In the end, she clicked on the call button and listened to the voice on the other end of the line.

Gu Qianbei's tone wasn't as gentle as usual. On the contrary, it was a bit childish.

"Qingnuan, guess where I am now?"

"You are Gu …" "Qianbei?"

Holding the phone in her hand, she couldn't believe that he was addressing her directly by her name. Her two slender eyebrows slightly creased.

However, the other party didn't show any signs of restraining himself as he let out a burst of laughter, causing her to feel even more puzzled.

Suddenly, Soong Qingnuan raised her head and saw Gu Qianbei's swaying body.

No wonder she felt that the laughter was coming from behind!

"Are you okay?"

She quickly stuffed the phone back into her bag, ran to him, and held him tight.

A strong smell of alcohol hit her nose. Soong Qingnuan couldn't help but turn her head to take a breath of fresh air. Unexpectedly, Gu Qianbei turned around and fell on her back.

His head was resting on Soong Qingnuan's neck, and the warm air made her itch a little.

"Qingnuan, take me home …"
