C35 (2/2)

The dishes were all served and ready to be eaten.

”Western New Year?” A melodious and elegant voice rang out.

The four of them raised their heads upon hearing the voice. A tall girl with a well-cut dress appeared in front of them. She had a Chanel Pearl in her hand. She had a dazzling temperament and was beautiful and elegant.

It was Mu Xin Rou.

Without waiting for Gu Xi Nian's reply, Mu Xin Rou's eyes swept across them. When she saw Gu Qian, her face revealed a trace of astonishment: ”Gu Qian? Is that you? ”

Is today a nostalgic day? Why did I meet an old acquaintance, a former alumnus?

Gu Qian's throat was parched as he slowly squeezed out, ”Long time no see, Xin Rou.”

A few memories surfaced in Gu Qian's mind.

Mu Xin Rou, who had always admired Gu Xi Nian, who had once treated Gu Qian as a love rival, was also the one who pretended to be kind to Gu Qian and inserted the knife at the end.

Five years ago, when Gu Xi Nian and Gu Qian split up, Mu Xin Rou thought that she finally had a chance. In the end, Gu Xi Nian was like an iceberg that never melted, completely ignoring her, neither cold nor hot.

Seeing Gu Xi Nian and Gu Qian sitting together for dinner today, Mu Xin Rou finally understood the reason.

He hadn't thought that even after breaking up for five years, Gu Qian was still as impassive as ever.

Beneath Mu Xin Rou's beautiful appearance, her heart was warping.

However, he still had to put on a good appearance. Mu Xin Rou had a gentle smile on her face as she said in a friendly manner, ”Qian Chao, it's been so long. You're getting more and more beautiful.”

Gu Qing's lips curved into a faint smile. ”Thank you.” He didn't want to have too much contact with her.

Sun Ze naturally recognized the Mu family's eldest daughter. He, who wanted to watch a good show, was just about to ask the waiter for a set of tableware.

”What are you doing here?” From the start, Gu Xi Nian who was silent, finally spoke up. Sun Qian Shi embarrassedly took back his hand that he wanted to greet the waiter with, and turned around to scratch his head.

Mu Xin Rou didn't know how to reply.

Actually, it was Sun Qianshi who took a photo of Jiang Jing and took a selfie photo. He sent it to a Wechat circle and set it up.

It was just that when Sun Qian had accidentally taken a photo of Gu Xi Nian's watch, Mu Xin Rou had guessed that he was two at a time. She had rushed over just as she finished buying things at the market, but she didn't expect Gu Qian to be there as well.

However, facing Gu Xi Nian's questioning, Mu Xin Rou definitely wouldn't tell him the truth, otherwise her, the Mu family's young miss, wouldn't care about her reputation.

Furthermore, Gu Xi Nian's attitude clearly showed that he did not want to eat with her.

”I'll eat here with my little sister after walking around the streets. When I see you, I'll come over and say hello.” Mu Xin Rou explained.

”Have you finished eating?”

”Yes.” Mu Xin Rou was a bit embarrassed, ”Xi Nian, I will be leaving first. My friend is waiting for me at the door. Qian Qian, ask again when you're free! ” Actually, there was no little sister at all. She came alone and hadn't eaten yet.

Mu Xin Rou had such faith since she was young, she was the elegant and respected daughter of a noble family. Even if she met with any problems, she definitely wouldn't lose her proper upbringing.

With a perfect smile on his face, he left the restaurant. However, a spike called 'Gu Qian' had actually pierced into his chest.

During the meal, because of Mu Xin Rou's appearance, Gu Qian had eaten until there was nothing to eat, so he lowered his head.

Yu Xuan took a ham and melon for Gu Qian and said, ”Qian Qian, why aren't you eating it?” The food in this restaurant is really delicious! ”

Before Gu Qian could reply, Sun Ze quickly replied, ”Aiya, how nice would it be to meet a love rival? Little Qian, don't take it to heart. In front of delicious food, nothing is important. ”

The hand holding the knife and fork froze for a moment, and then he acted as if nothing had happened, revealing a smile as he said, ”I'm fine!” Xuanxuan, if you like it, I'll treat you to it next time. I'll reward you for all the hard work you've gone through these past few days. ”

The laughter between the two little sisters instantly lightened the atmosphere.

The depths of Gu Xi Nian's eyes as he looked at Gu Qian became pitch-black.
