Chapter 177: Recognizing The Wrong Person
“It seems like you haven’t met your senior yet?”
Gu Zheng smirked and said slowly, “Could it be that you don’t want to see your senior anymore?”
Qiao Xi: “??”
What did this bastard mean?
Qiao Xi’s countenance was ghastly pale, and she immediately said, “Of course, I want to see my senior. You don’t understand the feelings between us. Even if we don’t meet, we’ll still be thinking about each other.”
Gu Zheng smiled.
Was that so…
In Qiao Xi’s eyes, the feelings between them were purely admiration and couldn’t be concealed.
Gu Zheng could not help but laugh as his eyes sparkled.
Qiao Xi suddenly felt that something was off.
Gu Zheng was laughing!
Was he mad?
Qiao Xi felt a chill run down her spine. It just so happened that the actors had already completed the audition, so she should leave as soon as possible.
She would see Senior another time!
Qiao Xi took a list, and in the end, her gaze fixed onto a name.
Ye Qingyun, 38 years old, married. It was said that he was proficient in hacking and was handsome.
Qiao Xi immediately rushed over to look for Ye Qingyun. This person was definitely her senior.
Ye Qingyun was discussing the script. Qiao Xi waited for them to finish before carefully opening the door.
“Hello, Mr. Ye.”
Everyone turned around in surprise.
Ye Qingyun greeted indifferently, “Nice to meet you, Scriptwriter Qiao.”
Qiao Xi’s eyes lit up.
Senior knew that she was the scriptwriter! It was him!
Although Ye Qingyun was 38 years old, he looked gentle and refined. His acting skills were outstanding and he was also a popular young actor when he was young. He could be said to be an actor with both strength and looks.
Seeing how enthusiastic the scriptwriter was, he smiled and asked, “Miss Qiao, is anything the matter?”
Qiao Xi’s expression froze.
??
Why was Senior pretending? Didn’t he say that they were going to meet?
Qiao Xi’s mouth twitched. She looked at Ye Qingyun’s manager and immediately understood.
“Mr. Ye, don’t you know me?”
Ye Qingyun was confused.
He thought hard. She didn’t look… familiar to him.
At this moment, Gu Zheng had already walked to the lounge and was smiling.
Qiao Xi turned around and was shocked when she saw the man.
What was this bastard doing here?
Since Senior was unwilling to acknowledge her, Gu Zheng must definitely be here to watch her make a joke out of herself!
Qiao Xi was furious. She gritted her teeth. “Mr. Ye, you know very well that I’m looking for Mo Yuan, right?”
“…” Ye Qingyun and his manager looked at each other in confusion.
There was a moment of silence.
The smile on Qiao Xi’s face gradually vanished.
Why was Senior still unwilling to acknowledge her? She had already said her name, or was it because it was not the right time? There were outsiders around, so it was not easy for him to acknowledge her?
No matter what the reason was, Qiao Xi’s heart was filled with helplessness and disappointment.
It seemed like her senior did not want to see her. They had known each other for so long, but they had never met. Perhaps to him, they were just acquaintances.
She had no idea who he was, how old he was, or what he looked like.
If she took the initiative to strike up a conversation with random men, they might think she was crazy.
Disappointment was written all over Qiao Xi’s face. She sighed and bowed toward Ye Qingyun. “I’m sorry.”
Just as she was about to leave—
“Mr. Ye, I’m sorry.”
At this moment, the man’s cold voice sounded. Gu Zheng walked in and pulled Qiao Xi over.
“My wife isn’t normal, don’t mind her.”
Qiao Xi: “…”
Who was abnormal?
She puffed up her cheeks and glared at Gu Zheng angrily. She raised her hand to give him a punch, but he dodged it and the corner of her mouth twitched.
Gu Zheng was calm. “Mr. Ye, you just saw it for yourself. She gets sick from time to time.”
With that, Gu Zheng pulled Qiao Xi out of the door.
Ye Qingyun nodded thoughtfully. No wonder this woman was trying to get close to him. It turned out that she was crazy.
Qiao Xi was angered to the point her face was flushing red. She pushed Gu Zheng off her. “What nonsense are you talking about!?”
Gu Zheng said slowly, “If I don’t say that, how would I explain it?”
Qiao Xi choked and was feeling unconvinced. “He was the one who refused to acknowledge me…”
Gu Zheng snorted. “If you’re not acknowledged, why don’t you think about the reason why?”
The man’s lips curled up. “Is it just because you’ve been on each other’s minds?”
Qiao Xi’s expression darkened. “What does it have to do with you…”
“Qiao Xi.” Gu Zheng spoke slowly, “Has it ever crossed your mind that you got the wrong person?”
Qiao Xi’s pupils instantly dilated.
She got the wrong person?
Zhou Guanjin had said that her senior would be here.
Moreover, Ye Qingyun was the one who matched her senior’s identity the most. Did she miss something?
Qiao Xi’s face was filled with embarrassment. “In any case, my relationship with Senior is very good.”
Gu Zheng was just about to contact Zhou Guanjin when he suddenly froze when he heard Qiao Xi’s words.
Qiao Xi wanted to cry but had no tears. Her entire body was filled with a sense of defeat. Hence, she decided to teach Gu Zheng a lesson and roared loudly, “You’ll never be able to understand the feelings between me and Senior.. We’ve known each other for ten years, and during these ten years, we’ve supported each other. When I needed help the most, it was he who gave me the motivation to persist!”
Chapter 178: The Bastard Is Senior
Qiao Xi was extremely aggrieved in her heart and wanted to make Gu Zheng unhappy, so she shouted, “If it weren’t for me marrying you, I might have married Senior instead. He’s very good to me.”
Gu Zheng smirked.
Qiao Xi instantly choked.
The damned man was actually a little happy?
Why was he not jealous? Or did he not care at all?
Qiao Xi felt that she was like a clown at this moment.
Qiao Xi sighed. “I’ve known Senior for ten years. Even though I’ve married you now, my feelings for him can’t be replaced by anyone. Don’t vainly think of taking his place in my heart.”
Gu Zheng was calm and collected. Afraid that Qiao Xi’s mouth would go dry from talking, he even handed her a glass of water.
Wait!
Qiao Xi was stunned. Not only was this man not jealous but he was also interested in this topic.
Qiao Xi gnashed her teeth. “Even if Senior doesn’t acknowledge me, he’s still in my heart. Don’t think that just because I married you, I have to keep a distance from Senior. Do… Do you hear that?”
“Mhm…” Gu Zheng dragged out his words with a hint of teasing in his voice. His eyes were filled with smiles.
“You like your senior?” It seemed to be a question, but his tone was firm.
Qiao Xi did not perceive the hidden meaning behind his words and blurted out, “Right! I like Senior. Actually, it can’t be said that I like him. I love him…”
Someone pushed the door open and walked in.
Zhou Guanjin was wearing a suit and had a smile on his face. “You’re all here!”
He sat down and suddenly felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was very strange, so he asked probingly, “What’s going on? I originally wanted to bring my junior to look for you. But you’re very busy with work, so you might not have time.”
Gu Zheng remained calm and collected.
Qiao Xi noticed something strange from Zhou Guanjin’s words.
She took a sip of water and heard Zhou Guanjin say, “Senior, I should be the one to introduce you guys today. Why did the two of you meet yourselves?”
…
Wait!
Senior?
Her hand went weak and the cup fell to the floor. Water splashed everywhere.
Qiao Xi was dumbstruck. “Who did you say he is?”
Zhou Guanjin hurriedly picked up a tissue to wipe his pants. “He’s your senior!”
Qiao Xi rubbed her ears to confirm that she had not misheard.
Her face was ashen with shock.
Her mind was blank, and she felt as though everything was a dream.
Qiao Xi raised her eyes to look at Gu Zheng, then recalled what she had just said. She asked in disbelief, “Are you sure he’s Mo Yuan?”
Zhou Guanjin was puzzled. “Of course, your senior is Mo Yuan. And he already knows that you’re Black Tide.”
Gu Zheng smirked, his eyes were glinting like stars. He said casually, “Junior, I heard you like me the most?”
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth twitched while her expression froze. “…”
She was about to vomit blood.
Qiao Xi abruptly stood up, her face filled with horror as her voice trembled. “You’re Mo Yuan?!”
Gu Zheng chuckled. “Huh, you don’t believe me?”
Zhou Guanjin had no idea what was going on between the two of them. He said excitedly, “Black Tide, I knew that you would find it hard to believe. I was also shocked for a long time when I found out.”
Qiao Xi: “…”
It was not just a shock. It was…
Gu Zheng’s thin lips parted slightly. “Black Tide, you said that you like me a lot and love me a lot. What else?”
Qiao Xi choked.
Before Zhou Guanjin came in, she did not know that Gu Zheng was her senior, so she said a lot of shameless things.
She originally wanted to anger Gu Zheng and express her love for her senior in front of him to see if he would be angry.
No wonder Gu Zheng was not angry at all and was even a little happy. It turned out that the person she had confessed to was Gu Zheng.
Zhou Guanjin was excited. “Junior! You’ve confessed? But aren’t you already married? Your husband is so pitiful!”
Qiao Xi choked, then closed her eyes and gnashed her teeth. “I was talking nonsense. Do you think I’m crazy? I won’t say such things again! Gu Zheng, consider me blind!”
Gu Zheng snorted.
Just then, Qiao Xi’s phone rang. It was Song Shiyu’s voice. “Young Madam! Young Master has helped you solve the matter of Qiao Rou and Fan Wenyuan maligning you. The shareholders have all voted to expel Qiao Rou. Qiao Corporation won’t accept her anymore.”
Qiao Xi’s eyes lit up.
She originally wanted Qin An to slowly help her deal with Qiao Rou.
Who would have thought that Gu Zheng would have already resolved it and saved her from having to worry about it?
Gu Zheng said slowly, “Qiao Rou’s expulsion is just the beginning. Gu Corporation will continue to pressure her in the future, so what do you think you should do now?”
Her words from earlier echoed in her mind, and she smiled slightly awkwardly.
She did not care about getting humiliated. After all, he was her husband.
