Chapter 305 - I Don’t Like Him

Seeing Leng Shaoting being upset, Gu Ning was slightly angry and tried to defend him. “Well, I think I need different friends who work in different fields, which would be helpful to my business, right?” In other words, she needed help from different people, instead of Situ Ye alone.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was cheered up, but Situ Ye just smiled a little.

Before long, the dishes were on the table.

During the meal, Leng Shaoting still kept putting dishes into Gu Ning’s bowl as usual. Although Situ Ye hated seeing that, he stayed calm, as if he didn’t notice it at all. However, as long as Situ Ye got the chance to talk with Gu Ning, he wouldn’t allow Leng Shaoting to lead the conversation.

“I think that your jewelry business is quite profitable now. When will you open a branch?” Situ Ye asked Gu Ning.

“I plan to go to university in the capital, so my next step is to move the headquarters to the capital, and I’ll get some trustworthy managers to deal with the branches,” Gu Ning

said.

“Very well. Have you found any suitable stores available for renting yet? There are several stores in good locations under my name. If you need, I can help,” Situ Ye said. No man could resist the charms of a beautiful woman, and Situ Ye would do everything to win Gu Ning’s heart. “No, thanks,” Leng Shaoting said before Gu Ning once more. However, even if Leng Shaoting didn’t do that, Gu Ning would reject too, because she had already agreed to let Leng Shaoting help her with that. However, Situ Ye ignored Leng Shaoting, and only looked at Gu Ning. He wanted to hear the answer from Gu Ning.

“Situ, thank you so much for your kindness. I’ll deal with the store in the capital myself. If I need your help, I’ll call you.” Compared with Leng Shaoting, Gu Ning rejected Situ Ye more gently. She didn’t want to lose a friend like Situ Ye. In addition, there was no grudge between Situ Ye and her, so it wasn’t necessary for her to keep a distance from him. Although she understood that Situ Ye wanted more from her, he hadn’t done anything yet.

“Sure, if you need anything, just call me.” It wasn’t a surprising answer, so Situ Ye didn’t feel disappointed. Instead, he was confident that Gu Ning needed him.

They then ate the meal in harmony. Situ Ye would directly ignore Leng Shaoting and talk with Gu Ning only, but he wouldn’t forget his manners or intentionally argue with Leng Shaoting. Gu Ning was aware that Situ Ye was a well-educated gentleman who admired her but wouldn’t interfere in her relationship with Leng Shaoting.

After the meal, Leng Shaoting used an excuse and pulled Gu Ning to leave right away, and left Situ Ye alone in the room.

Situ Ye didn’t stop them. He watched them disappearing from his sight thinking deeply.

Leng Shaoting drove Gu Ning to his house, but he remained silent along the way. Gu Ning pursed her lips. “Are you mad?”

“No,” Leng Shaoting answered, but his annoyed tone betrayed him.

“You’re lying,” Gu Ning said. Obviously she didn’t believe his

answer.

“I just don’t like him,” Leng Shaoting said in the end. He was talking about Situ Ye of course.

Gu Ning felt like laughing, but said to him seriously, “If you dislike every man who admires me, I think you will probably be mad often.”

Gu Ning wasn’t a narcissist, but was telling the truth. With her outstanding appearance and ability, she had plenty of admirers. During the short time after she had been reborn, she had already met Qin Yifan and Situ Ye. Both of them were quality men, although they couldn’t compare with Leng Shaoting. It didn’t matter which one of them was her boyfriend, she would live a good life. However, in the end she chose Leng Shaoting.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Well, compared with me, you’re better looking and from such an influential family. There must be far more women who admire you than men who admire me. Nevertheless, the point is whether you’re determined to be with me only, no matter how many admirers you have.”

Gu Ning naturally was displeased when other women made eyes at Leng Shaoting, but as long as Leng Shaoting loved only her, she wouldn’t be mad at him. Actually, she wouldn’t care about other men since she already had Leng Shaoting as her boyfriend, but Leng Shaoting couldn’t tolerate that other men still tried to please her when he was present.

Leng Shaoting immediately stopped the car at the roadside, and looked to Gu Ning with affection. “I don’t care how many women admire me. I only care about you, and you’re my one and only love and I will love you forever.”

“Exactly! I don’t care how many men admire me either, and I won’t give them any chances, so please don’t show me your angry face along the way!” Gu Ning complained.

“I...” Leng Shaoting was struck dumb, but he agreed with Gu Ning. He wasn’t actually mad at Gu Ning, but he did show his angry face often in front of her when they were alone together. “I’m sorry, Ningning.”

“It’s alright, I’m not blaming you. Let’s go ahead,” Gu Ning said.

Leng Shaoting then relaxed.

Within a short time, they arrived at a high-end housing area with a great environment. Leng Shaoting stopped in front of a house with a garden. Gu Ning looked at it. The house was large and was about 200 square meters in size with a big garden that was about 100 square meters.

The house price was extremely high in the capital, and only the super-rich could afford a large house with an outdoor garden here, but it wasn’t actually surprising given Leng Shaoting’s family background.
