Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Long Sijue swept his gaze past the little thing, whose lips were red from all that spicy crayfish she ate. ‘What? She told her friend that I’m extremely ugly?’
Su Qianxun lowered her head in guilt and looked at Gu Mian with a puzzled expression. “Since when did I say that he’s ugly?”
‘Gu Mian was the one who let her imagination run wild. It was just that I didn’t bother to explain!”
Gu Mian was also dumbstruck when she saw the man who had just entered the shop. Her heart almost skipped a beat. If she had encountered such an exquisitely handsome man before she was forced to get married, she would have definitely let out a shrill scream.
Long Sijue was wearing a black suit, which did not have a single speck of dust on it. With his six feet two figure, he looked like an extremely handsome runway model right out of a fashion magazine. His eyes were profound and captivating, the bridge of his nose was tall and straight, and his lips were thin and sexy. Coupled with his prominent jawline, his face was so handsome that all the women in the world would swoon the moment they saw him.
“Is this Long Sijue’s bodyguard? He looks really handsome!”
As Gu Mian still thought that Long Sijue was an extremely ugly man, she naturally identified the extraordinarily handsome man before her as Long Sijue’s bodyguard.
“He’s Long Sijue,” Su Qianxun quickly explained.
Gu Mian looked as if she just got the shock of her life and raised her voice. “Oh my God! Su Qianxun, are you short-sighted? How could you call such a man ugly!?”
Su Qianxun was at a loss for words. She really did not say that!
When the two young women spoke, Long Sijue had already walked towards their table and sat down beside Su Qianxun. Up close, Long Sijue appeared even more handsome. Gu Mian felt as if the air around them had suddenly become thin, as the sight of Long Sijue caused her to be almost out of breath.
“Young Master Long, nice to meet you. I’m Qianxun’s friend, and my name is Gu Mian.” Gu Mian quickly extended her hand to shake hands with Long Sijue. She flashed a pleasant smile at him, as she knew that Su Qianxun still needed to live with this man for quite a while.
Long Sijue frowned a little as he looked at the oily glove covering Gu Mian’s hand. She glanced at the young woman beside him, who had her head lowered, and nodded to Gu Mian as a sign of greeting.
Only then did Gu Mian realize that she was wearing an oily glove. She immediately withdrew her hand and let out a dry chuckle. ‘Even though this man seems a little cold, his appearance is really a plus point. It wouldn’t be such a bad thing for Qianxun to be together with him for real!’
‘Of course, this is on the premise that he must love Qianxun and treat her with sincerity!’
“Young Master Long, even though Qianxun is still young, she is very mature and considerate. I hope she didn’t cause you any trouble.”
Long Sijue glanced at the young woman beside him from the corner of his eye and said flatly, “She didn’t.”
“That’s great, then.”
Su Qianxun looked at Gu Mian with a gloomy expression as a gesture for her to stop talking.
Su Qianxun turned to look at the man beside her and explained, “Young master, Gu Mian just got married, so she’s treating me to a meal. Can I finish the meal before going back with you?”
Long Sijue fixed his gaze on her without saying a thing. Su Qianxun sighed internally. She knew that he would not agree.
Just as she was about to apologize to Gu Mian, Gu Mian suddenly said, “Young Master Long, if you don’t mind, why don’t we eat together?”
Su Qianxun looked at Gu Mian in shock. Why would someone like Long Sijue eat these?
“Mian Mian, why don’t we meet another…”
“Hm.”
Just as Su Qianxun was about to bid Gu Mian farewell, the man beside her suddenly agreed. Su Qianxun looked at the conceited man beside her in disbelief.
‘D-did he just agree?’
The young woman could not believe that someone like Long Sijue would actually agree to stay with them and eat barbecued crayfish!
“Su Qianxun, why are you sitting there and doing nothing? Why don’t help Young Master Long with peeling off the shells? Young Master Long renovated your house for you, after all. You should show your gratitude, shouldn’t you?” Gu Mian winked at the young woman opposite her, who was wearing a dumbfounded expression.
“Young master, do you want some of this?” Feeling rather awkward, Su Qianxun looked at Long Sijue.
Gu Mian really did not know what to do with this silly young woman. ‘Since Long Sijue agreed to stay, it means that he wants to eat! Why is this girl so unconfident in front of him?’
Gu Mian kicked Su Qianxun’s leg below the table. Su Qianxun looked at Gu Mian with furrowed eyebrows, and saw that Gu Mian was winking non-stop at her…
