Chapter 100 - Goldie
Chapter 100: Goldie
Could it be that this woman had never taken him seriously, or did she just choose to ignore him?
Song Chen said gloomily, “I haven’t left yet.”
He even wanted to have dinner with her.
Gu Manxi looked into the room. Gu Chu was still sitting on the sofa playing with her computer. Gu Manxi retracted her gaze and lowered her voice. “It’s getting late. You’re busy with work. You should leave now.”
She was just short of saying, “You can go. I don’t want to see you.”
Song Chen became even more depressed.
Gu Manxi was rather against Song Chen getting close to her. Firstly, she was afraid that Song Chen would snatch Gu Chu away. Secondly, she was unwilling to face the memories of the two of them spending time together.
Her feelings for Song Chen were very complicated. There was love and hate, helplessness and heartache. Cheng Qingyun had clearly returned. He loved Cheng Qingyun so much, so why did he still appear in front of her?
Gu Manxi would never forget the humiliating years of being a substitute lover.
Song Chen saw the grievance in Gu Manxi’s eyes. He opened his cold and thin lips and explained, “I never thought of you as anyone else.”
Gu Manxi did not believe his nonsense.
Gu Manxi said coldly, “There’s one more thing I forgot to tell you. There are two forces that kidnapped Chuchu. One is Zhao Jing, Tang Chunxiu’s family, and the other is hiding in the United States.”
After a pause, Gu Manxi looked at Song Chen with dissatisfaction. “I think the second force has something to do with your pursuers again.”
Song Chen: ? ? ?
What do you mean again?
Gu Manxi could not be blamed for making wild guesses. In the past, when she was forced to be Song Chen’s lover, there would always be women who liked Song Chen that would fight for him due to jealousy. They would all try to trip Gu Manxi up. There were even people who took the extreme route and kidnapped Gu Manxi maliciously.
In the past, Gu Manxi and Song Chen were together for more than half a year. It seemed to be a glorious time, but only she knew that the days were like being in the Hunger Games. She had been in danger several times and every step she took was frightening.
Now that Chuchu was kidnapped, Gu Manxi suspected that it might be a malicious plot that came from a woman or a man who loved Song Chen.
For example… Cheng Qingyun.
Cheng Qingyun loved Song Chen so much that she was going crazy. If she found out about Gu Chu’s existence through certain channels, she might really do something.
“Don’t come looking for us in the future. You’ll only bring danger to Chuchu. Cheng Qingyun is still waiting for you at home.” The more Gu Manxi thought about it, the angrier she got. She turned around and went into the house. She slammed the metal door shut, leaving Song Chen at the door with a dumbfounded expression.
Song Chen stretched out his hand. “Manxi-”
As the door closed, Song Chen’s heart turned cold.
He stopped at the door for a moment. Song Chen was, after all, an elite in the business world. He was smart and knew that haste makes waste. He still had a long way to go before he could win back Gu Manxi’s heart. There was still a long way to go before he could pursue his wife.
As he pondered over Gu Manxi’s words, he walked steadily out of the residential area.
—
For half a month in a row, as long as Song Chen did not have work, he would look for Gu Manxi.
His daily schedule became [ Home-company-Manxi and Chuchu ].
Nothing could affect his schedule.
At first, Zhao Yan was polite enough to chase him away. Later, when he saw that Song Chen was not giving up, Zhao Yan was so angry that he directly opened the door and let the dog out.
This majestic purebred wolfdog was picked by Zhao Yan and Lin Xiaozhou at the pet shop. Its fur was shiny, its bark was sharp, and its aura was majestic. It was called [ Goldie ].
However, Goldie was so fierce that it could bite anything and everything, but it wouldn’t bite Song Chen.
Every time it saw Song Chen, it was probably scared by the “domineering aura” of the male protagonist, so it would wag its furry tail to express its goodwill.
