Chapter 406: Amorous Smile
Luo Xin smiled and said, “Why are you still so careless? Hurry up and find them. Don’t feel too embarrassed to trouble others. You can ask the workers for help. I have to catch a plane, so I’ll be leaving.”
“Okay.” Gu Shen nodded. Upon hearing her words, he felt inexplicably annoyed. He turned around and gave her a look. “Have a safe trip then.”
“Thank you.” When Luo Xin reached the airport, her eyes flickered.
It was said that a woman’s heart was like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Now, she felt that a man’s heart was also like a needle at the bottom of the sea. What did Gu Shen’s attitude toward her mean?
Qian Yi was the first to see Gu Shen, who had returned as though he was looking for something. “Did Teacher Gu lose something? I’ll get someone to help you look for it.”
“No need. I found it.” Gu Shen was a little annoyed. Even he did not know why, but he’d had to find an excuse to come back.
“That’s good.” Qian Yi smiled and shouted that it was time to leave. They would leave first. The people in charge of cleaning up the scene would go to the crayfish restaurant to find them after they were done.
Ling Sheng held Shi Lingyu’s arm and asked her about Yu Bei. When had the two of them started dating? She had even hidden it from them. Humph, she was angry!
Shi Lingyu, who was coaxing her, had given her five boxes of Snow White strawberries. She had even told her that she knew a fruit farmer in F City, which was beside C City. The Snow White strawberries planted there were delicious, and it was an hour’s drive away. She would take her there so she could eat her fill.
When they reached the entrance of the television station and were about to get in, Shangguan Yu turned around and took a look at Gu Shen. “Ah Shen, you must have something important to do tonight. Are you rushing to catch a flight?”
Gu Shen shook his head and said calmly, “No.”
Actually, Shangguan Yu did not want to invite him. However, as a senior, he had to be generous. How could he be angry with a junior? He thus said, “Then you can come with us!”
That was what Gu Shen had been waiting for. In order not to appear too anxious, he nodded and said, “Okay.”
When he looked up, he saw Ling Sheng pulling Shi Lingyu into a car with a happy smile on her face. She was genuinely happy.
It turned out that she knew how to smile too. She could smile so sincerely and infectiously that one would want to laugh with her.
She was not like she was in front of him, when she was always flaring her nostrils, glaring at him, or wearing fake smiles.
Crazy!
Why did he care about her?
No matter what she looked like, it had nothing to do with him. The reason he had agreed to eat crayfish was because of Shangguan Yu’s invitation.
During dinner, Ling Sheng’s status as a fairy was fully displayed.
Ji Fanchen peeled prawns for her and Cheng Ye.
As long as Ji Fanchen did not feed Cheng Ye a prawn, he would definitely give it to Ling Sheng.
The same applied to Shi Lingyu. She would peel a prawn and feed it to her personally.
Shangguan Yu smiled. “Sheng Sheng, you’re the queen. So many people are serving you.”
Shi Lingyu explained hurriedly, “Sheng Sheng doesn’t know how to peel them.”
Cheng Ye nodded. “She cut her fingers last time and bled a lot.”
Ji Fanchen agreed solemnly. Ever since that incident, no one had dared to let her peel the shells herself.
Ling Sheng thought, You guys are right. I really love you.
Gu Shen’s eyes were cold as he sneered in his heart. As he peeled the prawns, his movements became violent. What was so good about this stinky woman? They had surrounded her and were treating her like a princess. If he had to say something, then they were all blind!
During the meal, everyone had a good time chatting. Shangguan Yu even arranged their next meeting and said that he wanted to meet the other five of the Eight Immortals.
Only Gu Shen felt like he was chewing on wax no matter what he ate. The food was flavorless. They were all talking, so he could not butt in. No one was giving him a chance to talk either. If he had known, he would not have come!
Shi Lingyu and Ling Sheng had booked the same hotel. Cheng Ye and Ji Fanchen had stayed at another hotel the night before and had booked the same hotel today. Thus, everyone could return to the hotel and to the capital together.
“Sheng Sheng, sleep with me tonight. I haven’t had a night chat with you in a long time.” Upon seeing her, Shi Lingyu started wheedling.
Ling Sheng let out a low cough and said seriously, “I have a room. I’ve already paid for it. It would be a waste not to stay there. When we get back to the capital, we’ll sleep together when we go out to have fun.”
Ji Fanchen and Cheng Ye smiled ambiguously at her. Go on and put on that act of yours. We’ll watch quietly!
