Chapter 386 - 388: Foolishness Turns Out to be a Form of Dependence 2_1
"I heard you don’t like the car I gave you?" Leaning lazily against the chair back, Gu Shaocheng added, "So what car do you like? Get ready and I will pick you up and take you to buy one."
"I don’t want a car."
"Then what do you want, a haircut? I can take you to get one."
Chenxing felt all tangled up inside: "I don’t want a haircut either, I don’t want anything." All I want is for you to coax me; it’s that simple, she silently told herself.
"I’ll treat you to dinner tonight."
Chenxing was stunned. She had a difficult time reacting to his abrupt change in attitude.
Gu Shaocheng’s tone was so gentle, totally different from the domineering man who had sent her text messages. She couldn’t understand why he was suddenly trying to appease her? Wasn’t he mad that she had stolen his private seal and forged documents?
Was he really here to make amends with her?
At that moment, a warm feeling gradually swelled in her heart that she couldn’t suppress.
Her wronged heart was being healed slowly.
"Chenxing, what do you want to eat tonight? Chinese? Western? Korean cuisine? The last time you mentioned wanting to eat barbecue; would you like barbecue tonight?"
"I want to have Hu Cuisine," Chenxing asked hesitantly, "Is that okay?"
"Of course." Gu Shaocheng glanced at the time and looked up. He didn’t know which building or floor she was in the residential area. After thinking and pondering, he finally said softly: "You wait for me at the entrance of the residential area in half an hour, I’ll pick you up."
It should be enough time for a girl to get ready to go out in half an hour, right?
He hung up the phone, his face had warmed quite a bit. Gu Shaocheng gripped the steering wheel with one hand while selecting music with the other.
He didn’t simply wait for her at the entrance of the residential area. Seeing there was still plenty of time, he drove away. To do what?
The man parked his car in front of a florist. If he wanted to woo a girl, he should show some sincerity. Remembering the paper flower he made for her last time which she didn’t appreciate, this time he specifically bought the freshest roses.
Getting out of the car, entering the flower shop, choosing flowers, getting back in the car- the entire process filled him with unparalleled pleasure.
They say the hidden meaning behind eleven roses is: I love you the most and care only about you!
Chenxing, as the one and only person I care about in my life, do you understand?
Truly, I’ve always known. As long as I give you time, a girl like you, so transparent, will gradually understand. I really believe I’m blessed by the heavens.
His heart was filled with excitement.
Just as he was about to drive, a police car suddenly blocked his way.
His car was driving too fast, and the traffic police had been searching for the speeding car for a long time. Finally finding it, they assumed a stern attitude. KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! They knocked on the car window.
The car window rolled down, and the traffic policeman saluted him, "Please show me your vehicle registration and driving license."
Gu Shaocheng was in a good mood. He took out his wallet and produced a special "exemption card".
The new traffic policeman did not recognize this "exemption card", nor did he recognize Gu Shaocheng’s car. But any traffic policeman who had been in the department for many years would know. Gu Shaocheng’s car had an unwritten rule in the department. It was, in fact, a pass. The chief had made it clear that Mr. Gu’s car was not to be trifled with no matter when or where. Mr. Gu had deep connections and many high-ranking officials were his friends. The tax he paid annually to City E alone was enough for everyone to call him "dear father".
