Chapter 164: 164 Still Managed to Make the Appointment_1
This seems a little too straightforward.
So I asked another question.
“What kind of room are you proposing to book at this late hour?”
“Just like the fun room we had last time!”
“I’m sorry, it’s too late, and I don’t really want to go out!”
Let’s not mention the fact that I need to take care of Ding Yinuo now.
Even if Ding Yinuo wasn’t present, after serious consideration, I don’t believe it’s possible for Gu Yuanzhou and I to go back to how things used to be.
Even though he didn’t participate in the arson case, he still betrayed me.
How could I let myself develop a relationship with a man who betrayed me?
Hence, I rejected him without hesitation.
“Ayun, is that you?”
At some point, Ding Yinuo sat up in a daze.
I put away my phone, poured him a glass of water,
“Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want me to prepare a cup of juice for you?”
“Yes please, there are fruits in the fridge, I apologize for the trouble ”
His cheeks were still flushed, it was clear that he was feeling unwell.
I had experienced a hangover before, that feeling of discomfort is not pleasant, and so I headed to the kitchen.
Ding Yinuo’s kitchen was very clean, even the stove was spotless, and the kitchen utensils were all clean as well.
Apparently, he hardly ever cooked for himself. I opened the double-door large fridge, and to my surprise, it was packed full with various fresh fruits.
It seemed likely that this was the work of his mother.
I chose a few fresh fruits, washed and cut them before putting them into the blender.
Both of my children loved juice, and I used to make it for them a lot.
While I might not be adept at cooking, I am quite skilled when it comes to making juice, capable of blending various kinds of fruit juice.
After preparing the juice, I headed back to the living room.
That’s when I saw Ding Yinuo walk out of the bathroom after having a shower.
His hair was still wet from the shower, the long fringe covering his features.
His naturally delicate face was even more dewy at that moment.
The bare upper half of his body showed his muscular physique, the clear eight-pack abs indicating that he must frequent the gym.
He’s indeed a self-disciplined man, possessing such an attractive body.
Though he had wrapped a towel around his waist, the outline of his V-cut and the masculine narrow waist were still prominently visible.
This was the first time that Ding Yinuo was so wild in front of me
It was as if he was oozing hormones!
I felt a little embarrassed staring at him, and, pretending to be shy, I averted my gaze.
“Ahem, the juice is ready. Can you check if it’s ok?”
Ding Yinuo, on the other hand, was quite nonchalant, after all, he was no longer the innocent adolescent that he once was.
He had matured into an adult man.
Presenting his bare upper body without any semblance of embarrassment, he seemed to enjoy the attention.
“Okay, since you’re fine now, I’ll take my leave.”
I picked up my purse and was about to leave.
Ding Yinuo got up and blocked my way.
“I’m drunk to this extent. Are you planning to leave me just like that?”
“What else then, am I supposed to stay here and take care of you till your last days?”
I half-jokingly responded as I looked at him.
But Ding Yinuo’s expression at that moment was very serious. He held onto my arm and pulled me closer, his other hand gently brushing against my cheek.
“Ayun, do you think we could have been together if it wasn’t for that misunderstanding?”
“What misunderstanding?”
“The the bird incident!”
It seemed difficult for him to verbalize, but he forced it out eventually.
I seriously pondered over his words. My prejudice against him was not just because of his constant antagonism towards me, but also because he was dating Jiang Jiaying, the girl I disliked the most.
However, even if I ignore all these, would I fall in love with him?
“Ding Yinuo, if not for these misunderstandings, we could have possibly become friends!”
“So, just friends, with no further possibilities?”
His expressions became more intense, as if a long suppressed feeling was brewing within him, seeking a breakthrough.
After mulling over it for a few seconds, I then smiled and turned him down, “No!”
“Why?”
“Because Gu Yuanzhou!”
Yes, Gu Yuanzhou came later.
Sometimes life is strange like that. At the wrong time, the wrong person comes into your life and turns everything upside down.
Upon reflection, it’s clear to me that, at my youthful age, I couldn’t have possibly been attracted to Ding Yinuo.
In a sense, Din Yinuo is a good man. He has proper values, a stable family, but such a good man is meant for mature women.
At that age, I was a rebellious, adventurous adolescent.
I preferred someone like Gu Yuanzhou, who seemed a little evil, bad yet somewhat fierce.
Back then, I always thought that I could change him
The light in Ding Yinuo’s eyes slowly began to fade. Disappointed, he let go of my hand and gently patted my shoulder,
“It seems like I still can’t measure up to him.”
“Ding Yinuo, what nonsense are you talking about! What does he amount to, he’s just a scoundrel. You’re a hundred times better than him.”
I firmly believed that if Ding Yinuo was to get married, he would never treat his wife and child the way Gu Yuanzhou did.
Just then, my phone rang again.
I sat down and picked up my phone, and it was another text message from Gu Yuanzhou.
“Do you have a big problem with Ye Mengyan?”
Why is he bringing up Ye Mengyan in the middle of the night?
After deep thought, I responded,
“It’s not a big problem per se, but she has ulterior motives! Perhaps for you, she’s perfect, but she’s done a lot of shady things behind the scenes.”
“So, what do you want?”
“I hope she won’t be the spokesperson for Zhenyi. Please find someone else, I can recommend someone better. She can’t handle the image and temperament of this brand.”
That’s what I had been thinking recently, so I directly expressed my thoughts.
“This is just your prejudice, I think she is quite capable!”
“Gu Yuanzhou, I’ll try to prove to you that your thoughts are wrong.”
After I sent that message, he didn’t reply anymore.
After a while, I turned my head and saw Ding Yinuo sitting on the sofa, staring at me. He had finished his juice already.
“Why are you chatting with him at this late hour?”
“Work issues?”
“Work?”
“I can’t let go of Zhenyi, don’t try to persuade me.”
“I’ll accompany you!”
Ding Yinuo sat quietly without saying anything else.
After a long time, Gu Yuanzhou sent another message, “Let’s talk, about Ye Mengyan’s situation, it’s better to have a face-to-face discussion!”
“It’s too late, let’s talk tomorrow!”
“Tomorrow will be too late, I am going to announce the issue at the company’s meeting tomorrow.”
I looked at the time on my phone, it was already half-past eleven. It’s not exactly early, but it’s not too late either.
“Alright, where should we meet?”
