Chapter 75 - 76: Don’t worry, I am still a gentleman
Xia Yangyang joked, “Then what type do you like?”
Lu Yao said shyly, “Among the male celebrities in the entertainment industry, I like Chen Yu the most. I am, after all, a die-hard fan of him.”
Xia Yangyang shook her head: “Chen Yu’s face is more beautiful than a woman’s. Is it not a lot of pressure to like a man who is more attractive than yourself?”
And so, the two of them began to discuss the gossip of the entertainment industry.
Indeed, gossip is the second soul of a woman.
The gathering ended at ten o’clock.
Shen Shichuan drove, with Xia Yangyang sitting in the passenger seat.
Xia Yangyang had no idea where Shen Shichuan planned for her to stay, maybe a hotel.
The phone rang again.
This was the third call that evening.
Xia Yangyang stared at the blinking screen, her heart churning, and finally simply turned off her phone.
When she looked up, it seemed Shen Shichuan glanced her: “Boyfriend?”
Xia Yangyang was taken aback: “No.”
Shen Shichuan didn’t ask further, the car soon stopped.
Only then did Xia Yangyang realize that this was not a hotel, but a garden villa.
Xia Yangyang asked in surprise: “Where is this?”
Shen Shichuan said: “My home.”
Xia Yangyang was even more surprised: “Why did you bring me to your home?”
Shen Shichuan looked at Xia Yangyang’s frown and defensive demeanor, laughed, and said: “It’s not safe for you, a girl, to stay in a hotel. You can stay here for the time being.”
Xia Yangyang hesitated: “Is this really okay?”
Shen Shichuan smiled lightly: “Don’t worry, I’m a gentleman after all.”
Xia Yangyang wasn’t afraid of that, but it still felt very awkward.
However, it was already late at night, and the villa was on the outskirts of the city. It would be late to go back.
Eventually, Xia Yangyang got out of the car.
The villa was very large and private, surrounded by lush, towering trees.
There was an outdoor swimming pool in the garden, and the lights inside the villa were bright, like a palace.
Only after going in Xia Yangyang realized how incredible this place was.
But except for a housekeeper, there was no one else, which felt a bit deserted.
The housekeeper arranged a guest room for Xia Yangyang.
After staying in the room for a while, there was a knock at the door.
Xia Yangyang went to open the door.
Shen Shichuan stood at the door.
He had a few sets of clothes in his hands.
Shen Shichuan said: “These are my younger sister’s clothes. They are brand new. Your size is similar to hers, so they should fit.”
Xia Yangyang took the clothes: “Thank you.”
Shen Shichuan said: “If you need anything, you can find Uncle Yang, the housekeeper, or you can come to me directly. My room is next to yours.”
Xia Yangyang nodded.
At this time, the housekeeper came over and said: “Sir, you have a guest.”
Xia Yangyang was puzzled. It was so late and there was a visitor.
But Xia Yangyang didn’t think too much.
Shen Shichuan left, and Xia Yangyang stared at the clothes in her hands in a daze.
It was the clothes of the queen of the music industry, Shen Manbing. It was surreal. That woman was born to be adored by the stars.
Xia Yangyang had to admit, actually, Gu Qichen and Shen Manbing were a good match. They seemed to be people from the same world.
Xia Yangyang shook her head, decided not to think about it, and turned to go to the bathroom to take a bath.
Meanwhile, in the study.
Shen Shichuan opened a bottle of red wine, poured it into a glass, and handed it to the man sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face, “You, a busy man, rarely show up in a year. Today you come to drink with me in the middle of the night. What could possibly make you, Young Master Gu, so troubled?”
The man took the wine glass from Shen Shichuan’s hand, took a small sip, and asked: “What do twenty-year-old girls usually think about? Why do they often ignore people?”
