Ch.277 Gu Tong, Xia Qiao, and Mao Shiyuan. (1)

Five years later, Gu Tong attended the class reunion.

What she didn’t expect was that Xia Qiao, who normally didn’t like to show up, also came. But compared to the lonely Gu Tong, Xia Qiao had a beauty in his arms.

The moment he came in, Gu Tong had stared at him for a while.

It was a class reunion for people of the same profession. However, he showed up with his girlfriend. Just how much does he love her?

Despite seeing her fiery and passionate gaze, Xia Qiao didn’t even look at her except for the time he unintentionally caught her gaze after entering the private room. Even more, he seemed to be avoiding her gaze now.

Gu Tong sat in the corner, drinking glass after glass of wine.

She felt defeated whenever she saw Xia Qiao. She had shamelessly pursued him for a long time, but she failed.

Because he didn’t like her, he wasn’t moved.

Later on, there was a new colleague in Gu Tong’s workplace. They ended up living together. Gu Tong enthusiastically told her about the situation and the colleague was really grateful to her as a result. The two lived quite harmoniously together.

Once, that colleague told her how she encountered her crush from middle school during the Chinese New Year. The second day after they encountered each other, the man personally invited her out for a meal, but she rejected him.

Gu Tong asked her why.

She said that she couldn’t tell that he had any feelings for her through his words. He was just alone in a foreign place when he encountered someone familiar. Naturally, he wanted to get close to her.

Gu Tong asked her how she felt about the man right now.

She said she still had feelings for him.

Gu Tong didn’t understand. “Then why don’t you take this chance to try and date him?”

She remembered her colleague’s reply. “I am unwilling to pursue a man. The moment a girl takes the initiative, they’ll be lowering their statuses. I rather stay single than to pursue him.”

Gu Tong was guilty and didn’t know what to say after she finished hearing it.

That was because she thought the exact opposite.

Gu Tong thought that she needed to take the initiative to fight for what she wanted, including love.

If you don’t take the initiative, no one would ever know your thoughts.

Of course, there was a scenario where you obtain nothing from taking the initiative.

Like her and Xia Qiao.

Even if she was covered in cuts and bruises, and couldn’t be friends, Gu Tong was still willing.

She worked hard for her future, but she was unfortunate. She was one of the many that failed.

Gu Tong thought a lot, but her gaze had been on Xia Qiao and his girlfriend.

He delivered a glass of juice to her. She took a sip and knitted her brows, saying that she didn’t like that flavor, so Xia Qiao changed the flavor for her.

When they were eating, he only focused on himself and didn’t grab any food for her. His girlfriend tossed her chopsticks and acted childish and spoiled in front of everyone, wrapping her arms around him. “Dear, you’re not paying attention to me!”

Xia Qiao kept his head down and started grabbing food for her.

“I want that and that. I like eating that! And this, this one too!”

Xia Qiao paused before following her words.

The entire table full of people were shocked. They all started teasing Xia Qiao, saying that they were jealous of his girlfriend.

Xia Qiao smiled and said nothing, but he didn’t seem that happy either.

Gu Tong sat at the table across from his. Seeing this, she smiled and said, “This is quite interesting.”

They decided to go karaoking after eating. Xia Qiao’s girlfriend pulled on his arms. “I want to sing this. Choose it for me! You have to sing with me later.”

Xia Qiao said helplessly, “I’m not singing. You can sing alone.”

“No! You have to sing with me.”

Gu Tong sat not far from them. After she heard that, she looked at Xia Qiao meaningfully, the smile in her eyes deep.

Xia Qiao noticed as well and he instinctively looked over. Then, he shifted his gaze.

The minute before his girlfriend was going to sing, Xia Qiao made the excuse that he was going to use the bathroom and left.

Gu Tong grabbed her purse and followed.

By the end of the hallway, Xia Qiao was smoking with his back to her.

There was a clear contrast to the bustling noises ringing from the private room and the silence between the two.
