4611 Never Too Late to Love (18)
Bai Sheng thought for a while and finally told her the truth. âI married this man in a moment of anger.â
âPfftâ¦â The sound of someone vomiting blood came from the other end, followed by Millerâs angry roar. âDonât tell me you married someone just because you were angry with your aunt!â
âDo you know how despicable my aunt is? Do you know what condition she set for the blind dates? Regardless of their age or looks, as long as they were able to give her a property that would eventually be my cousinâs marital home, sheâd marry me off to him!â
When Miller heard this, she snapped. âIsnât this human trafficking, in essence?â
âThatâs right.â Bai Sheng felt extremely aggrieved. âSo, I randomly found someone and got married. At least, I no longer have to face those strange blind dates.â The very mention of blind dates made Bai Sheng want to retch.
Miller was dumbfounded. âIs that the point? Is the man you married reliable?â
âAnyway, I think heâs quite nice. He also knows how to respect girls. Moreover, heâs very gentlemanly. Most importantlyâ¦â She recalled Gu Chengzeâs handsome side profile from when she sat in the front passenger seat of his car. She blushed furiously as she continued, âMost importantly, heâs also very handsome.â
âDonât be fooled by appearances! All handsome men are fickle-minded!â Miller paused and launched a series of attacks.
âWhatâs his personality like?â
âWhatâs his family background?â
âWhat about his parents? Did they agree to your marriage?â
âDoes he have a house?â
âDoes he have a car?â
âAre the elders in his family easy to get along with?â
â¦
Bai Sheng was almost rendered speechless by the series of questions.
She looked at the ceiling blankly and replied in a daze, âI didnât even askâ¦â
âPfftâ¦â It sounded like she was vomiting blood again.
Millerâs hoarse voice came through the receiver, âBai Sheng⦠can you not be so dispirited!â
âUhâ¦â
âNo way.â Miller asserted, âAs your best friend, I want to meet him!â
âMeet?â
âYes! At the very least, I can only be at ease after he passes my inspection!â
âBut⦠Iâm already married.â
âYou can still get a divorce if youâre married. Itâs just a marriage certificate. It canât tie you down for the rest of your lives. Since youâve just gotten married and donât have a child yet, cut the Gordian knot!â
Miller asked further, âWhere are you staying now that youâve fallen out with your aunt? If you have nowhere to go, come to my place! Iâll take care of you. Heheâ¦â
âIâm staying in⦠his houseâ¦â
âWhat!?â
â¦
An hour later, Miller had stormed right up to the apartment door. She rang the bell.
The moment Bai Sheng walked out of her room, she saw that Gu Chengze had already come out of the study. When he opened the front door, Miller was about to march in holding her phone. When she saw the man, she was stunned!
âOh my godâ¦â She covered her face in disbelief.
Gu Chengze looked baffled.
He had no idea what had happened and frowned slightly. âWho⦠are you looking for?â
âIâ¦â Millerâs aggressive stance instantly softened. She cleared her throat and lowered her head, not even daring to look directly at Gu Chengze. âI⦠Iâm looking for Bai Sheng. Is she here?â
âMillerâ¦â Bai Sheng stood at the doorway of her bedroom, completely stunned. âYou were serious about coming hereâ¦â
