Chapter 70: He Felt Guilt When She Said She Didn’t Hate Him

“Jiaojiao,” Gu Quan suddenly called out to her.

He bent down and lit his cigarette. “Don’t play with your phone. Let’s talk after you finish eating.”

“We can talk now too.”

Lin Jiao looked at him for a moment. For the first time, he chose to do what she said.

“This is for you.” Gu Quan pushed the document folder forward but didn’t bring up anything about compensating her.

“Have you forgotten what I said before?”

“I have not.”

“Then why did you give me these?” Lin Jiao was not even interested to even look at it.

“Just treat it as a gift from me to you, okay?”

“Not ok.”

Gu Quan stubbed out his cigarette.

He was silent for a long time before frowning. “Is it because of what He Qi said before?”

“No.” Lin Jiao met his gaze. “I don’t care what others think of me, nor do I want to take your things.”

“You still hate me?”

“No, I don’t hate you.”

Hearing that, Gu Quan was overwhelmed by a sense of guilt again.

He lowered his voice. “Jiaojiao, I’m sorry.”

“It’s all in the past.”

Lin Jiao put down her chopsticks.

She stuffed the documents into his arms. “Have a good life with Su Tian. Don’t come looking for me again.”

Gu Quan’s heart ached.

He subconsciously held her hand. He clearly had a lot to say, but when he met her eyes, he couldn’t bring himself to say a word.

This feeling was especially strange.

Even he did not know what was wrong with him.

“Gu Quan, you should go.” Lin Jiao pulled her hand away and sat far away.

She smiled and said, “She’s still waiting for you.”

Gu Quan suddenly came back to his senses.

“Jiaojiao… take good care of yourself.”

Without waiting for a reply, he stood up and left, leaving the documents on the table.

He drove to the beauty salon. When he saw Su Tian’s smiling face, the depressed mood finally disappeared.

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.” She pounced into his arms, her eyes filled with neediness.

“Sorry, I was busy with something just now.”

“What is it?”

Gu Quan had no intention of lying to her. He said bluntly, “I sent the real estate transfer documents to Lin Jiao.”

Su Tian, who had not heard Lin Jiao being mentioned for a long time, was stunned for a moment before revealing a trace of jealousy and hatred in her eyes.

She blinked. “Did she take it?”

“She didn’t want to accept it, so I just left it there.”

“Then she’s probably going to return it to you soon.”

Gu Quan rubbed the top of her head. “If she returns it this time, I’m not going to look for her again.”

There were many other ways to compensate her.

“It’s probably best if you don’t see her again.” Su Tian hugged his waist, looking like she was showing consideration for Lin Jiao. “She’ll be even sadder if she sees you.”

“Yes.” Gu Quan sighed to himself.

He thought of what Lin Jiao said about him living well with Su Tian and asked, “Do you want to move in with me?”

“Where?”

“Moving into Lufu Bay with me.”

Hearing that, Su Tian’s eyes lit up. When she thought of the check-up report, her eyes dimmed instantly.

She lowered her head. “I’m not ready yet.”

Once they had sex, she could no longer hide the fact that it was not her first time.

“Do you have any concerns?” Gu Quan asked, not knowing what was on her mind.

“I don’t want to do that too soon.”

“Do what?”

Su Tian glared at him. “You know what I mean.”

Seeing that her face was instantly red, Gu Quan finally understood what she meant.

He really had no intention of doing that with her. “I won’t touch you without your permission.”

“Really?”

“Would I lie to you?”

“No.” Su Tian felt relieved after hearing his promise.

In order to find an opportunity to sleep with him while he was drunk, she didn’t turn him down.

“Then I’ll stay in the room next to yours.”

“Alright.” Gu Quan kissed her cheek and smiled. “You can stay in whichever room you want.”

Su Tian pushed him away shyly.

She put on her seatbelt. Her previous frustration was replaced by the joy of moving in with him. Her mind was filled with thoughts of their bright future.

However, a relationship filled with schemes was destined to end badly.

“Is Gu Quan crazy?” The milk tea shop behind Sheng Heng was filled with Pei Yilan’s curses.

She put down her cup with a bang. “You should have recorded a video back then.”

“Why?”

“Threaten him! If he comes looking for you again, send it to that home-wrecker.”

Lin Jiao couldn’t help but laugh.

“He’s not coming again.” She pulled out a tissue and wiped the milk tea that splashed on the table.

Pei Yilan pouted. “Not necessarily.” Thinking of what a scumbag Gu Quan was, she felt disgusted. “Anyway, remember what I said.”

Lin Jiao nodded in agreement.

She rested her cheek on one hand and took the initiative to ask about their date. “Did you hold hands last night?”

“No, I just touched him.”

“Where did you touch?”

“There.” Pei Yilan raised an eyebrow. “You know where.”

“Abs?”

“A bit further down.”

Lin Jiao’s eyes widened. “Are you serious?”

“Yeah, I touched his…”

“Lower your voice!”

Looking at her flustered expression, Pei Yilan could not help but laugh.

She held her stomach and took a deep breath. “I only touched his skin. What were you thinking?”

“…You’re deliberately making me misunderstand.” Lin Jiao’s ears turned red.

Pei Yilan pursed her lips to stop herself from laughing.

She held Lin Jiao’s arm and said, “I really want to be with him.”

“Does he know you like him?”

“Not yet.”

Lin Jiao said seriously, “Then don’t be in a hurry to confess. Spend more time together.”

“Alright.” Pei Yilan nodded.

She leaned on Lin Jiao’s shoulder and suddenly thought of something important. “I met a high school classmate last night.”

“And?”

“Didn’t I tell you before about finding you a good boyfriend? He’s not bad.”

Lin Jiao shook her head. “I don’t want to be in a relationship now.” She preferred to focus on work.

“You can add each other on WeChat first.” Pei Yilan said as if she was promoting something, “If you miss out on this one, there won’t be a second.”

“Chatting is so tiring. Forget it.”

“Why is it tiring?”

“Talking with someone I don’t know, other than asking him how are you and what’s your hobby, I can’t really think of anything else to say.”

Just thinking about it made Lin Jiao exhausted.

If she had that much time, she’d rather invest it in something else.
