“Uh, ma’am, are you a student at A University?” Gong Xiaoqiao asked doubtfully as the girl looked somewhat familiar to her.
The young woman nodded, “Yes! I’m here for the Christmas party. My baby was alone at home with no one to care for him, so I brought him along! Hey, if people ask, I just say he’s a prop for the costume party! Classmate, you have such a great figure! I’m so jealous of you! Ah, actually, my figure wasn’t necessarily worse than yours before I had the baby!”
Gong Xiaoqiao was left speechless by the young woman’s bold statements.
“Uh, this child… is he yours?”
The young woman explained, “I didn’t get pregnant before getting married, you know! I’m already married! I’m a senior now, about to graduate.”
Gong Xiaoqiao began to reflect, “Ah… Another person is married with children, and I still don’t even have a boyfriend!”
Gu Hangshen glanced at her. Could it be that she finally wanted to get a boyfriend?
This meant she could move out of Qin Yao’s shadow, but why didn’t he feel the slightest bit of happiness?
“You don’t have a boyfriend? Impossible. Then who is he…” The young woman said in surprise, looking at Gu Hangshen beside Gong Xiaoqiao.
“He’s my uncle,” Gong Xiaoqiao answered expressionlessly.
The young woman: “…”
Gu Hangshen: “…”
Gong Xiaoqiao reflected, “Lady, you’re really honest, handing your child over to a stranger without fear that he could be a bad guy who might abduct your child?”
The young woman’s bold reply came, “How could a man as handsome as him be a bad guy! Besides, he just happened to be waiting for someone, so I asked him for help.”
Since when does being handsome mean someone is a good person…

Regardless, this bewildering incident had finally come to an end.
Gong Xiaoqiao, who had lost count of how many times she had ignored the relentless calls on her phone, stood up and patted her butt, “If there’s nothing else, I’m going to head back. I still need to help out.”
Gu Hangshen grabbed her hand and stood up as well, gently embracing her, feeling her struggle as he tightened his arms.
“Xiaoqiao, don’t be so cold to me.”
“You’ve lost weight…”
“Have you missed me?”
“Because I’ve missed you…”
Gong Xiaoqiao looked alarmed, “Hey, have you had enough of pouring out sweet nothings? What are you really trying to say?”
Gu Hangshen didn’t criticize her clothes as usual, but instead was uncharacteristically tender, which puzzled Gong Xiaoqiao greatly.
He held her, his arms wrapping tighter and tighter, as if venting some inexplicable emotion.
He looked at her lips, and an impulsive desire rose unexpectedly within him…
In the end, he only gently placed a kiss on her cheek, seemingly filled with repressed forbearance, refraining from crossing that line.
The touch on her cheek startled Gong Xiaoqiao, and she instinctively tried to push him away only to find him holding her so tightly.
His emotions affected her, and the ambiguous atmosphere in the air made her increasingly uneasy and panicked.
That was until Gu Hangshen spoke the next two names, breaking the spell.
“The reason I kept from you the fact that Xiaorou and Qin Yao came back to get engaged was not to hurt you. Your mood had finally settled down after all these years, I didn’t want to disturb you.”
Gong Xiaoqiao laughed at herself mockingly, “Gu Hangshen, why can’t you just admit that it’s out of selfishness, for Gu Xiaorou, because you don’t want me to destroy her happiness? Always saying it’s for my own good, don’t you find it hypocritical?”
“So that’s what you think of me…” Gu Hangshen frowned deeply, his dark gaze falling enigmatically on the girl.
If he indeed had selfish motives, they were motives he could never voice…
