C33 Give Her a Necklace

Soong Qingnuan was guided to the best seat and sat down. Her heart was filled with energy as she put on a calm expression.

In the past, when her Soong Family was vast, she had also done something as though it was a whole auction, but today was the most unforgettable time for her.

Gu Qianbei kept flipping through the menu, as if he had forgotten everything that just happened.

He took a sip of soda from the table and put it back gently. Finally, he placed the menu on the table and looked at her with a burning gaze. "What would you like to eat?"

"Just follow the orders we made just now."

Soong Qingnuan's voice was polite and well-mannered. She knew she should express her gratitude for the help he had given her. However, the words that had rushed to her mouth were unable to come out.

Maybe the relationship between him and Gu Qianbei wasn't strong enough, he was just a kind friend that was willing to help. Soong Qingnuan had always had a vague uneasiness towards the conditions that he mentioned to her before, she always felt that there would be a day when she would mention it to her.

After Soong Family went bankrupt, Tears of Blood's lesson told her to guard against others.

The waiter served the food the two had ordered earlier. He stole a glance at the two of them, feeling that there was something fishy going on.

In a restaurant with only two people, Gu Qianbei and Soong Qingnuan couldn't hide their embarrassment. They quietly finished the food on the porcelain plates, and without even calling for dessert, they rushed out.

The awkward atmosphere in the restaurant continued all the way to the car. When Gu Qianbei took her home, Soong Qingnuan just sat in the back of the car with her head down, looking at the text on her phone.

She received several more messages urging her to switch hands on the house. She was too agitated to calm down.

As an elder sister, she had the duty to protect her Soong Family, and also promised Little Jun that she would definitely protect the house.

However, the situation was getting more and more tense. Even she was unable to save herself.

Soong Qingnuan sighed silently. Gu Qianbei had seen every detail of her expression.

He had clearly promised her that as long as it was within his capabilities, he would help her.

However, Soong Qingnuan never took the initiative to open her mouth, which made him a little disappointed.

Time passed silently in the car. Gu Qianbei saw the sign of the Anhui villa area and consciously parked the car in front of the door.

She didn't like people entering her safe zone.

"Let's get off here."

Gu Qianbei smiled warmly at her and took the initiative to open the door for her.

Remembering what happened at the Western Restaurant, Soong Qingnuan's heart shuddered. She took a deep breath and was about to thank him.

"Thank you for what happened in the dining room today."

She lowered her head slightly, her tone full of sincerity.

This was the first time she was treated gently after her family went bankrupt. It had to be said that Gu Qianbei's performance was very warm.

However, trouble would follow soon after. Soong Qingnuan had seen through Su Chen. He would definitely remember what happened today.

Gu Qianbei looked at her actions with a smile on his face. He knew that every time he helped her, she would have a better impression of him.

Even though she was careful, she didn't show too much of herself.

As expected, this city was difficult to break through. He didn't know how far he had to go, so he moved step by step.

Seeing that Gu Qianbei didn't answer, Soong Qingnuan voiced out her doubts …

"Actually, you don't have to do that. In the future, the Gu family and YinLiu will work together again. It would not be good for them to leave because of me."

In the business world, the thing that one could not do the most was offend someone, and it was only because he had offended a lot of people that he was unable to find a helper to help him out.

Actually, she was also afraid that she would put him in a difficult situation. Her personality was cold and aloof, and she hated to trouble others the most.

Gu Qianbei kept her thoughts to himself, and he deliberately used this opportunity to speak his mind.

"I'll be on your side, under any circumstances."

From the moment he had set his eyes on her, he had made up his mind to be her man.

She only regretted that she was related to Su Chen due to the twists and turns of fate.

Soong Qingnuan didn't understand the meaning behind his words. She was always lacking in terms of feelings.

The two of them did not go home. Instead, they walked on the cobblestone path in the villa area.

"But, what's known as the Gu family is official business."

She stopped and looked up, worried.

He was the one who established Gu's. When she accompanied Su Chen to serve tea, she witnessed the rise of a business. The efforts of the founder behind this were a thousand times greater.

In fact, once she heard about Gu Qianbei, she was very curious. What kind of man could create a miracle in Lin Cheng? Now that they got along, it was indeed different from what she imagined.

Gu Qianbei was more powerful and bold than she had imagined.

She could not speak the words of admiration, only faint admiration for him.

In Soong Qingnuan's history, Su Chen was the only failure.

She didn't know how to get along with other men. She just talked on instinct.

Gu Qianbei lowered his head and paid attention to her high heels, afraid that she would accidentally twist her foot.

As he watched, he expressed his attitude.

"I also don't like cooperating with a boss like Su Chen, nor does the Gu family."

When he was planning to pursue her, he already thoroughly understood Soong Family and Su Chen, and he was also very concerned about her and his past.

A large part of the success of Yichang was due to the Soong Family, and it was also due to the support of Soong Qingnuan.

If there was a woman who was willing to give him a hard time, he definitely wouldn't let go so easily. That fool Su Chen actually pushed her away.

Unknowingly, the two of them had reached the entrance of Soong Family Great House. This was a huge breakthrough for Soong Qingnuan, but she had not realised it at all.

She was about to open the door and enter when Gu Qianbei stopped her.

"Wait, I have something for you."

Soong Qingnuan curiously turned her head to look at his movements. She saw him pull out a necklace from his pocket. It was the latest limited edition necklace.

Although she wasn't too interested in jewelry, she still had a basic understanding of it.

This necklace was very famous in the fashion circle, but what was he going to do with it?

Gu Qianbei rarely touched such a woman's thing. He just passed by a special counter and unintentionally found out that its temperament matched Soong Qingnuan's very well, so he bought it.

"This, Gu Qian casually bought it when he went out shopping."

The reason he was looking for was really low-leveled. With a smile on her face, Soong Qingnuan stood on the spot for a long time without reaching out her hand to catch it.

Gu Qian had been following him around the whole time, how could he have the time to go shopping?

Even if they were just shopping, how could they have such good eyes?

It seemed like this necklace was something special to him, but Gu Qianbei didn't make his intentions clear, so why did he make up such a blind lie?

Regardless of the reason, when she saw Gu Qianbei's slightly rosy cheeks, a strange feeling spread in her heart.

Soong Qingnuan thought about it for a while and decided to accept it in the end.

"Thank you."
