8 An Unknown Side of Fang Qing

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Qing followed Gu Cheng to the underground garage. The dim lights were shimmering on the ground. For some reason, Fang Qing noticed that Gu Cheng's footsteps had unconsciously slowed down and his body was trembling slightly.

Gu Cheng seemed to have noticed Fang Qing's strange behavior. He quickly regained his composure and walked straight to his car.

Fang Qing also quickly followed him to avoid being too far behind. However, because she was wearing high heels, she sprained her ankle in excitement and let out a muffled groan.

Fang Qing tried her best to keep her voice so low that she could not hear him. She slowly walked into Gu Cheng's car.

The space in the car was narrow. Fang Qing recalled that after she had said those words in front of Ning Yuan today, Gu Cheng had still helped her perfect the plan. It would be a lie to say that she was not touched.

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Fang Qing took the initiative to say, "So even President Gu has to drive himself."

Gu Cheng held the steering wheel and spun around. He focused his eyes on the front and said nonchalantly, "When I was studying abroad alone, my family didn't care about me. Other than tuition and accommodation, I had to earn my own money, let alone hire a driver. I'm used to driving myself, except for business meetings."

Fang Qing's mood changed slightly after hearing that. It seemed that Gu Cheng's childhood life was not as simple and beautiful as she thought.

After driving out of the parking lot, the car sped through the road. Halfway through, Gu Cheng stopped in front of a pharmacy. He went in for about five minutes and came out with a bag in his hand. After getting in the car, Gu Cheng threw the bag to Fang Qing. "I've used this before, and it's quite effective."

Fang Qing opened it and saw a box of ointment and spray. It was especially used to treat falls and sprains.

"Thank... thank you." Fang Qing did not expect him to notice her injury, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

"It's okay, you're my boss," Gu Cheng said playfully.

Fang Qing thought of the conversation she had with Meng Yue in the office and immediately covered her face with her hand. She wanted to go live on another planet.

Damn it! Why did this workplace taboo keep appearing in her mind? A bullet screen immediately popped up in her head, what if the boss finds out that I said I'm the boss.

"No... listen to my explanation... That's not what I meant." Fang Qing wanted to defend herself.

Just then, Gu Cheng's phone rang. The voice was very soft, so Fang Qing could not tell who was calling him. She could only hear Gu Cheng's reply, "Yes, yes... she's in my car..." and "Songyue brothel? Okay."

After saying that, Gu Cheng turned around and drove in another direction.

Fang Qing asked, "Do you want to go somewhere else?"

Gu Cheng replied, "It's a gathering of friends. I want you there while I'm at it."

With me? Fang Qing muttered in her heart. She probably heard that Gu Cheng's fiancée came from the countryside and wanted to see her as a joke.

Fang Qing thought that she would come to the restaurant with Gu Cheng for dinner, but after a short nap, the scenery outside the window completely changed. Under the blue sky and white clouds was a stretch of grassland. It was rare to find such a place in city a, where industry was also a pillar of industry.

The scenery outside the window swept past until a building came to a stop. Many tall horses were waiting in the shed. This was the only member-owned horse farm in City A.

After Gu Cheng drove into the parking spot, he handed Fang Qing the thin coat he had taken off in his office. "This is the suburbs. The wind is stronger here."

Fang Qing did not decline and put it on herself. After all, her body was hers.

After getting out of the car, Fang Qing followed Gu Cheng to the VIP waiting room. There was already a group of people sitting inside. They all stood up when they saw Gu Cheng. When they saw Fang Qing behind Gu Cheng, each of their expressions revealed a different plan.

When they saw the two of them enter the door, a person wearing a flowery shirt and casual shorts came forward. This person looked unrestrained. However, this deadly straight man's outfit did not seem out of place when he wore it. Instead, it seemed to be full of youth.

"Brother Cheng, you're finally here. We've been waiting for you for a long time." He patted Gu Cheng's shoulder as if complaining.

Then, he changed the topic and said, "This... is the future sister-in-law, right? Hello, sister-in-law. I'm Ren Heng. Just call me Little Heng."

Gu Cheng was about to tell him not to talk nonsense when a sharp female voice came from behind him. "What are you talking about, Little Heng? Wen Yan is still here!"

Everyone's attention shifted to the back. A woman dressed like a socialite with a shawl and bangs walked forward slowly. She looked at Gu Cheng and said naturally and generously, "Gu Cheng, long time no see."
