Chapter 28 - Better Taste In Men
Li Zhiyuan got off the car and leaned against the door. The sun shone brightly on him, covering him in a glimmer of golden sunshine, making him appear charismatic.
“Qianshu, what a coincidence! We meet again.”
“I believe you have placed a tracking device on me.” Shen Qianshu scoffed. There was too much to dislike about him.
“If I had placed a tracking device on you, it’s definitely because I can’t wait to see you.”
Shen Qianshu sighed quietly. The scariest thing is a cultured pursuer. Harassment can take several turns and sound charming.
“CEO Li, I have a boyfriend.”
“Haven’t you guys broken up already?”
“How did you know?” Shen Qianshu found it strange. The incident was not exposed, and only a few people knew about it. How did he know?
Li Zhiyuan said, “Tong Hua’s disappearance alarmed the entire program crew, and Lin Xiaojuan explained everything to the company. Things like these can never be hidden for long. I wanted to send people to help you out, but I also found out that you are all safe and sound. Tong Hua also came for filming today.”
Shen Qianshu felt awkward.
Li Zhiyuan said, “Qianshu, you have had so many boyfriends.”
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
It was all for finding Tong Hua a father these few years.
Speaking about it, she felt that it was pretty heart-wrenching.
“You don’t quite have a good taste.” Li Zhiyuan came to a conclusion.
For some reason, Shen Qianshu felt like that sounded very familiar. Ye Ling just said that recently; now, another one is saying I have bad taste?
Is the world trying to test my patience?
“Luckily, I fell for you and not the other way around. That makes me feel slightly better.” Li Zhiyuan added.
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Prince Li, can you play by the rules and not be so unpredictable?
She did not know how to handle unpredictable situations like this.
“Qianshu, since you’re single again, can I woo you?” Li Zhiyuan said.
“I have bad taste. I’m afraid I won’t fall for you.” Shen Qianshu scoffed.
Li Zhiyuan laughed lightly, loving her sense of humor. Looking dapper, he asked invitingly, “Dear Ms. Shen, the one with a bad taste in men, may I ask you out for a meal? Don’t worry, I will make your taste in men better.”
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Shen Qianshu racked her brains to find the right words to reject the meal. All of a sudden, a BMW braked hastily, almost hitting Li Zhiyuan’s Lamborghini. Yuan Hui and Gu Xiaoli got off the car, and Yuan Hui rushed to Shen Qianshu, pleading for help hurriedly. “Qianshu, help me. If you don’t help me, I’ll die.”
“Oh, then go ahead.” Shen Qianshu said and smiled.
Looking at the Yuan Huai pleading, she thought that she must have been blind in the past. Although she only dated for a few months, she knew him for a year. Either she was blind or Yuan Hui’s acting skills were too good. She never saw such a pathetic look behind the elite.
Yuan Hui panicked, sweating profusely. He patted his chest to express his sincerity and said, “Qianshu, you can’t leave me to die! I swear I will leave Gu Xiaoli and treat you right. It wasn’t my idea to kidnap Tong Hua. Gu Xiaoli did it! It has nothing to do with me.”
Shen Qianshu looked towards Gu Xiaoli, and Gu Xiaoli nodded repeatedly. “Qianshu, I’m the mastermind. I shouldn’t have betrayed you with him, but love is uncontrollable. I know I’ve let you down, but as long as he’s safe, I promise to leave him and wish the both of you well.”
Gu Xiaoli spoke as if she could not help with loving him, but her eyes kept moving towards Li Zhiyuan in envy.
Why was Shen Qianshu always surrounded by talented men? Even without Yuan Hui, there is Li Zhiyuan. This man clearly looks like he is of high quality. The suit, the watch, the car… It’s easy to realize that he’s wealthy. He also looks charismatic.
