Chapter 725: Chapter 725: Is She Into You?
Gu Jing wanted to continue his taunting, but then he suddenly came up with an excellent idea: “How about this, I’ll stay away from Qiao Yin and never touch her again, and you must also promise to stay away from her and never entertain any inappropriate thoughts about her.”
Dongfang Mu was momentarily taken aback, then furrowed his brows: “Can you really do what you’ve just said?”
Gu Jing immediately confirmed: “Of course, I always keep my word!”
Dongfang Mu started laughing: “If you can do it, then go ahead.”
Gu Jing glared: “What do you mean? If I can do it, can you?”
“I can’t. I have work-related collaborations with Qiao Yin, so it’s impossible for me to stay away from her. Not having other thoughts about her is also impossible.”
Gu Jing was extremely irritated: “Dongfang Mu, are you playing me?!”
“I’m not, you were the one who said you could do it, what does it have to do with me? Alright, it seems like you don’t really like Qiao Yin, so stop bullying her from now on. Stay away from her, she’s not like the other women you’ve been with, go back to messing around in your entertainment circle!”
Gu Jing glared at Dongfang Mu with an ugly expression.
Wasn’t that plainly evident? Didn’t he already know that Qiao Yin was different from those people?
If Dongfang Mu didn’t want him troubling Qiao Yin, it was surely because he himself wanted to do so!
Absolutely not!
Originally, he was worried about Qiao Yin nagging him and wanted to leave, but now he did not want to leave at all. He had to stay here and watch over Qiao Yin, to prevent her from being taken advantage of by Dongfang Mu.
Naturally, Dongfang Mu wasn’t going anywhere either. He had initially come out for a drink, and given Qiao Yin was here, he savored this rare occasion to be with her and didn’t want to leave.
They had both lowered their voices during their argument, coupled with the music in the bar, none of the spectators could clearly hear what they were saying.
However, Qiao Yin who was close by could hear everything clearly.
Dongfang Mu’s attitude was understandable as Qiao Yin knew that he was a bit interested in her, but not much. It was common for him to say such things.
The one who was not normal was Gu Jing.
His attitude was extremely capricious. One moment he found her annoying and couldn’t wait for her to disappear from his sight. If she so much as touched him, he would angrily push her away.
Then the next moment, he would be arguing with Dongfang Mu over her, even threatening him and vowing to support his cousin’s plot to seize the family property, all while appearing to defend her with his life.
Why was Gu Jing so contradictory? What did he understand?
Qiao Yin had many thoughts on her mind, but now was not the time to interrogate Gu Jing.
She could only sit down with Lu Yanxi for now, eating absentmindedly, and occasionally looking at Gu Jing.
Gu Jing and Dongfang Mu had also sat down by them. They quickly realized that Qiao Yin would occasionally glance at Gu Jing.
Gu Jing looked at Dongfang Mu proudly: “See? She’s not interested in you at all, why don’t you hurry away?”
Dongfang Mu felt uncomfortable deep down, but a gentle smile lingered on his handsome face: “So, is Young Master Gu suggesting that she’s interested in you?”
“Isn’t it obvious?”
“If she’s interested in you, why doesn’t it look like you have any intention of dating her?”
Gu Jing was rendered speechless: “I-”
“Young Master Gu was not this cautious about his relationships before, right? I remember you eagerly pursuing whichever girl you liked and sleeping with her in no time, before moving on to the next one.”
“You’re talking nonsense, I never did that!”
“No? Then what are your plans with Qiao Yin? Are you planning to pursue her formally? I doubt it.”
“Why does how I treat her concern you? I should be the one asking you this question: how do you intend to treat Qiao Yin? Haven’t you already arranged to marry Cui Shuqian? You’re about to get married, and yet you still want to play around with others?”
