CHAPTER 28: CHAPTER 28 DO YOU OFTEN GET SCRAPED BY CARS?

"That day my mom came to see me about something, and I couldn’t get away." She answered lightly, no longer as nervous and cautious as before.

Maybe she should feel lucky that there’s still something about her that he remembers.

Hearing her answer, Qin Junnan subtly breathed a sigh of relief. He was actually a bit afraid she’d say something like she didn’t want to meet at all.

Thankfully, it was a missed meeting due to unavoidable circumstances.

The unresolved knot in his heart for years was instantly unfastened, leaving Qin Junnan in a more relaxed mood, "It’s all good now, let’s eat."

Afterwards, Gu Yan picked at her food, and when Qin Junnan talked to her, she’d answer a few words. If he didn’t speak, she wouldn’t initiate conversation.

Ah, unfulfilled crush, unfulfilled indeed; five years ago it ended before it began, and now it’s crushed before it even starts.

They ate for nearly an hour, and Qin Junnan ordered dessert. Gu Yan couldn’t refuse and just accompanied him by having a bit.

After another half an hour, Gu Yan really couldn’t sit still and finally spoke up, "Senior, I’m really full, shall we go?"

Seeing the faint pleading expression on her face, Qin Junnan sighed inwardly; he just wanted to spend a bit more time with her.

She’s still the same as she used to be; back then, she never spent more than an hour with him. Now, having an hour and a half was truly a bonus for him.

"Okay." He nodded and stood up.

Gu Yan smiled and promptly stood up as well.

Qin Junnan felt a bit helpless.

The two left the restaurant under the manager’s watchful eye, and Qin Junnan warmly said, "Wait here for a bit, I’ll go get the car."

Gu Yan nodded, and Qin Junnan walked towards the parking lot.

Gu Yan stood there for a while, when two people walked past her; one of them looked back at her and exclaimed "Huh" while taking a few more glances, as if remembering something, then strode towards her.

"Hello, miss."

Gu Yan was left a bit dumbfounded by the sudden appearance of a stranger, "Hello..."

"Miss, do you have no impression of me at all?"

Gu Yan stared at him for a while, then honestly shook her head, "No."

The man clutched at his heart with a hurt expression, "I can’t believe such a charming man like me is forgettable to someone."

Gu Yan felt embarrassed, stepping back a few paces, only to unexpectedly spot a man not far behind him.

The man was dressed in a black suit, standing there straight, his deep eyes calmly fixed in this direction, lips pressed tightly. Passersby couldn’t help but turn their heads, but only dared to look from a distance.

Tang Yuxiu!

How do I keep running into him everywhere!

The man trying to flirt with her noticed Gu Yan frowning and thought something about him was displeasing, so he sheepishly dropped his hand.

By this time, Qin Junnan had driven the car over. Seeing someone standing in front of Gu Yan speaking to her, with Gu Yan not looking too pleased, he strode over to her side.

"What’s going on?"

Gu Yan shook her head, "Nothing really."

Qin Junnan’s gaze turned towards the man opposite, "Sir, may I ask what’s the matter?"

Xue Jiarui looked at Qin Junnan, slightly raised an eyebrow, then smiled and said, "Nothing much."

He turned to Gu Yan to explain, "Miss, I was the one who accidentally hit you with my car last time."

"Huh? Hit me? Which time?"

Hearing this, Xue Jiarui’s mouth twitched slightly, "Do you often get brushed by cars?"

Now it was Gu Yan’s turn to feel awkward.

She didn’t get brushed by cars often, it just happened to be quite frequent these days.
