"How are things going between you and Gu Hecheng now?" Bai Feng thought for a while and changed the subject. "When I sent He Yijia off last time, he said that you and Gu Hecheng seem to be making good progress."
Shen Qianqian was drinking when she heard Bai Feng mention Gu Hecheng's name. Her eyes darkened. She slowly put down her glass and smiled bitterly. "We are not making any progress."
"How could that be?" Bai Feng muttered to herself. When she saw Shen Qianqian's sad expression, she immediately sat up straight and asked worriedly, "Did something happen between you two?"
"No." Shen Qianqian thought carefully about Bai Feng's words and smiled faintly. Finally, she added, "It's just that I realized later that I can't forget the bad things that happened between us in the past."
Shen Qianqian sighed heavily as she stroked the rim of the cup with her fingers. She was lost in thought as she said, "Perhaps I am not generous enough. After all, I can see that he has put in a lot of effort during this period."
Bai Feng looked at Shen Qianqian silently. Although she did not know what happened between them, she could understand her pain based on what she knew about Lin Jinya.
Bai Feng wanted to comfort her, but she did not know what to say. When she saw the loneliness in Shen Qianqian's eyes, she subconsciously thought of her own situation. She could not help but ask, "Do you miss him?"
Shen Qianqian did not expect Bai Feng to suddenly say this. Her words seemed to have pierced a secret in her heart, a secret that she had never dared to admit.
"No." Shen Qianqian deliberately avoided her gaze. She raised her glass and took a sip of wine.
Bai Feng saw how stubborn she was, so she did not continue to press her. Instead, she changed the topic. "Forget it. Let's not talk about these things. Have you been hanging out with Xiao Kong recently?"
Shen Qianqian frowned deeply when she heard this. She shook her head and said, "No. I am a little worried now."
"Worried about what?" Bai Feng saw Shen Qianqian frown and felt that she should not have said anything tonight. Everything she said was wrong.
"Previously, I was worried when Lin Jinya suddenly tested me. I wondered if she knew something." Shen Qianqian put down the wine glass in her hand and said, "Previously, when I was filming, Xiao Kong and Gu Hecheng went out together. I was worried that they might have filmed it."
"Then, what do you plan to do if they did?" Bai Feng looked at Shen Qianqian and thought for a moment before asking.
"Actually, Xiao Kong's household registration is under my cousin's name. This is my cousin's foresight. But even if I explain, as long as Xiao Kong is exposed, there will be trouble." Shen Qianqian sighed and said, "I can't think of a better way now."
"Actually, I tried to ask Xiao Kong if he wanted to go abroad with me. But he didn't seem to want to, so I could only give up."
Shen Qianqian looked worried. Bai Feng patted her comfortingly and said, "But after all, you are still avoiding the problem. But then again, Lin Jinya is really a dog-skin plaster. When will she stop?"
"Forget it. Let's not talk about her. Let's drink." Shen Qianqian had been very bored for the past few days, so she decided to take advantage of this opportunity to get drunk and vent her anger.
Shen Qianqian and Bai Feng drank a lot. Seeing that they were getting drunk, they were about to go back after a few more drinks. However, the bar suddenly became noisy.
An unbalanced criminal suddenly broke into the bar. As soon as he showed the knife in his hand, everyone screamed.
Before Shen Qianqian and Bai Feng could react, the indiscriminate criminal had already stabbed two or three people with the knife in his hand.
The people in the bar fled in all directions. Shen Qianqian and Bai Feng quickly got up and prepared to run out of the emergency exit.
However, the scene was too chaotic. Some people fell and were trampled while running. Some people were accidentally stabbed because they were too close to the crazy man.
The glasses and bottles on the table were also broken because they were knocked over by people who were in a hurry to leave.
In the noisy crowd, Bai Feng held Shen Qianqian's hand tightly and ran out. However, when they got outside, they saw that Shen Qianqian's arm was cut by a falling glass piece. Blood was flowing down her arm.
"How could it be so serious?!" Bai Feng said with a guilty face. However, when he turned around, he was afraid that it was not safe to stay at the entrance. He hurriedly took a taxi and left with Shen Qianqian.
On the way to the hospital, Bai Feng did not forget to call the police for the bar.
Bai Feng accompanied Shen Qianqian to the hospital to get her wound bandaged. After a while, the news of the incident in the bar became a hot search.
Some sharp-eyed people even noticed that Shen Qianqian was in the bar and even posted her photo. In a short time, Shen Qianqian's name followed this social news and rushed to the most prominent position in the hot search.
As soon as Shen Qianqian finished bandaging her wound, Gu Hecheng called her.
Gu Hecheng was full of worry. Shen Qianqian did not want to reject him so bluntly, so she told him about her situation. However, not long after, Gu Hecheng came to the hospital.
Bai Feng stood in front of Shen Qianqian and said, "I'm sorry. It's all my fault for not protecting you."
"It's okay. At that time, who could care so much?" Shen Qianqian smiled and said, "Are you okay? It's good that you're okay. These are just minor injuries. It's not a big deal. Don't forget to invite me when you drink next time."
Shen Qianqian and Bai Feng did not say much before Gu Hecheng came in front of them.
Bai Feng looked at Gu Hecheng's worried face and immediately said, "Since you're here, I'll leave her to you. Take good care of her. I'll take my leave first."
Gu Hecheng nodded at her. After Bai Feng left, he eagerly sat by Shen Qianqian's bedside. His heart ached for her as he held her hand and asked, "Are you okay? You must have been frightened."
Shen Qianqian smiled slightly and said, "I'm fine."
Gu Hecheng looked at Shen Qianqian's smile and felt a pang of pain in his heart. He stared straight at her without saying a word. An ambiguous atmosphere filled the emergency room.
Shen Qianqian felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him. She withdrew her hand and said, "I've already bandaged it. You can take me back."
Gu Hecheng did not reply. He carefully helped Shen Qianqian up and took her out of the hospital. He even helped her fasten her seatbelt in the car.
Shen Qianqian turned her face away nervously and looked out of the window. She secretly sighed in relief. However, she was still thinking about how Gu Hecheng's handsome face was so close to her when he helped her fasten her seatbelt.
Shen Qianqian felt her cheeks turn red and was lost in her thoughts. Suddenly, she heard Gu Hecheng's voice on the phone.
"Mother Liu, it's me. She won't be coming back tonight. You don't have to worry about her."
After Gu Hecheng finished speaking, he hung up the phone before Shen Qianqian could react.
Shen Qianqian looked at him in confusion. "No, I asked you to take me back. What are you doing?"
Shen Qianqian wanted to take Gu Hecheng's cell phone, but he had already put it away. He stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
"I'm talking to you!" Shen Qianqian raised her voice and said angrily, "You …"
"I heard you." Gu Hecheng, who had pretended not to hear her and ignored her, said gently, "But do you want to go back like this and make them worry?"
"Besides, no matter what, I'm going to kidnap you today. You don't have to struggle anymore." Gu Hecheng looked at her worriedly, but it was rare for him to joke with her.
Shen Qianqian saw that the car had driven far away. She knew that she couldn't persuade him today, so she stopped talking and turned to look out of the window.
Under the soft street lights, there were still many cars on the road. Shen Qianqian suddenly remembered what Bai Feng said when they were drinking.
"You miss him, don't you?"
Shen Qianqian's heart sank. She lowered her eyes. To be honest, even though she was already in Gu Hecheng's car tonight, if she insisted on going back, Gu Hecheng would probably let her go. But she didn't insist. She had to admit that she probably had some selfish motives.
At that thought, Shen Qianqian slowly turned her head and stared at Gu Hecheng without blinking. She didn't even notice it.
After a while, Gu Hecheng suddenly smiled and said, "Why? You haven't seen me in a few days. Do you want to take a good look at me?"
Shen Qianqian was stunned. She blushed from the tips of her ears to her cheeks.
She quickly turned her face away and pretended that nothing had happened. She leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes.
When Gu Hecheng saw that Shen Qianqian didn't say anything, he turned to look at her. His gaze was gentle and full of love. He stared at her for a long time before he finally turned his head away.
After returning to Gu Hecheng's villa, Shen Qianqian stood outside and hesitated for a moment. She didn't look good and stood there motionlessly.
Gu Hecheng was stunned. He just remembered that he had been coming back to this villa ever since Shen Qianqian left. He cherished it because it was the only place where he could find traces of Shen Qianqian's life. It was filled with memories of her. However, it wasn't the same for Shen Qianqian. Even if it was just memories, they were all painful.
"If you don't like it here, I have an apartment nearby. I can take you there." Gu Hecheng looked at Shen Qianqian nervously. She didn't say anything, which meant that she agreed.
