Chapter 1262 - He Has a Woman He Likes (2/2)

For him, she was not afraid of death at all.

“It has already been proven that I have the ability, being the top three out of four thousand bodyguards who partic.i.p.ated. I’m not afraid!” Gu Meng looked at Ye Qing with her bright eyes and the corner of her lips lifted into a sudden smile. “Is Mr Ye afraid that after I become your bodyguard, you will remember the things of the fis.h.i.+ng village one day and will not be able to control yourself and fall for me?”

Ye Qing almost laughed out of anger because of her shamelessness. This girl was unbelievable!

She tilted her neck up slightly. She was wearing a loose t-s.h.i.+rt and her collarbones were exposed. Ye Qing glanced at her and he could not help thinking about how she had opened the door previously.

He was not interested in her body, but the thought of those wounds on her body, he could not help but feel a sliver of respect towards her.

Ye Qing was silent for a moment before he said, “I have a woman I like.”

Of course Gu Meng knew he had a woman he liked, but hearing him saying it openly in front of her, she felt like she was being slapped on the face.

She could see that he really doted on the woman or he would not have kissed her in the public and let her lean against him.

“I won’t interfere with your relations.h.i.+p, I just want it to be fair. If you remember the things in the fis.h.i.+ng village and still like her and want to be with her, I won’t entangle with you anymore!”

Gu Meng lowered her long eyelashes, her nose slightly red. She tried her best to control her mood, not allowing herself to cry in front of him. She didn’t want him to pity her. “Mr Ye, I became your bodyguard by my own efforts. It’s my choice whether to live or die. Unless I don’t do my job well, you have no right to drive me away!”

Gu Meng did not want to say anything more and went into the house, shutting the door tightly. Her slender body leaned against the door and she slid down slowly, curling herself into a ball like she had been hurt.

The tears she had held back in front of him, fell uncontrollably. Her heart felt bitter like she had swallowed a goldthread herb.

…

Monday.

Gu Meng and Cen Xi went to their own workplaces at the same time.

While Gu Meng went to report to the Third Prince, Cen Xi went to the translation department.

When she arrived at the translation department, Cen Xi greeted the colleagues and senior staff in the office with the modesty and politeness of a new staff, and even gave them her own small handmade gifts.

A week later, Cen Xi gradually adapted to the pace of work. As she was hardworking, she was able to endure hards.h.i.+ps. She was the first to arrive at the company and the last to leave. She also worked overtime on weekends without rest.

Though she was doing well here, on the contrary, Gu Meng was not doing that well. Although she was working for Ye Qing, he did not arrange for her to be his bodyguard, but as a subst.i.tute. She would only have the chance to be by his side if any bodyguard was on leave or was hurt.

Gu Meng felt that he was deliberately alienating and ignoring her, trying to make her retreat.

But she would not give up easily!

On this day, Cen Xi and Gu Meng had hotpot together after coming home from work. Cen Xi received a call from the director of the translation department. “Xiaoxi, tomorrow Mr Qiao needs two interpreters. You and Linda will need to come on time at seven tomorrow morning.”

“Alright.”

After Cen Xi ended the call, Gu Meng asked. “You have a business trip tomorrow?”

Cen Xi nodded and packed her luggage after finis.h.i.+ng up the hotpot. The next day, she waited for Mr Qiao with Linda.

A black Maybach drove over. The car window lowered and a handsome face wearing sungla.s.ses appeared. When Cen Xi saw him, her heart jolted.
