Chapter 121: Chapter 121: He is Someone She Cannot Afford to Climb
“But Qiao Muxue…” She still cared about Qiao Muxue and didn’t want to be involved with her anymore.
“Qiangwei, I’ve told you, Qiao Muxue and I have nothing to do with each other, you don’t have to mind her.”
Listening to his words, Gu Qiangwei seemed to remember something, and her expression suddenly turned dark.
“Mochen, about what you said last time—”
“I’ve said you don’t need to hurry with your answer, give it to me in a month.” He was afraid, once her answer came out, she would drift further away from him, become even more estranged.
Gu Qiangwei remained silent. Towards Shen Mochen, she really only had the pure friendship from their university days, nothing more than that.
“Get in the car, I’ll take you to the company first.” He opened the car door for her, very gentlemanly.
Looking at the time, indeed it was getting late, without overthinking Gu Qiangwei got into the car.
At eight forty, they arrived at the entrance of Shengtian Entertainment Company.
Gu Qiangwei got out of the car, “Thank you.”
“No need to be polite with me, I’ll take your things to my apartment first, then pick you up after work in the evening.”
“No need, just give me the address, I can take a taxi myself.”
Once in the downtown area, she wouldn’t worry about not being able to find a taxi.
“I’ve already said, don’t be polite with me.” His gaze was sincere.
He insisted, so Gu Qiangwei didn’t say anything more. It seemed that even if he didn’t give her the address to his apartment, even if she could take a taxi, she wouldn’t be able to go there.
“Then I’ll go in first.”
“Okay.”
After watching her enter the company building, Shen Mochen drove away.
Gu Qiangwei’s new job was as an assistant stylist; being new, she was somewhat flustered.
Finally, after struggling through the morning, she could take a break.
For some reason, she suddenly took out her cell phone and looked at it.
It seemed that Qin Sijue would usually call her, but today her phone was unusually quiet, with no activity at all.
Lighting up the screen and looking at the familiar wallpaper with no incoming call display, Gu Qiangwei felt a sudden sense of loss.
Wait, what was she feeling sad about?
After leaving, she had nothing to do with Qin Sijue anymore!
But…
Would leaving without saying anything be too rude? Should she send a message to tell him?
Thinking this, Gu Qiangwei clicked on the familiar name and typed a text message.
[Sorry, I can’t wait for your return…]
Uh, that doesn’t sound quite right.
Delete, start over.
[Qin Sijue, I’m leaving, goodbye…]
No, no, his grandfather said that she shouldn’t see him again, he is beyond her reach—
Suddenly, as if she realized something, Gu Qiangwei looked up, her gaze becoming distant.
In her ears echoed the words of Qin Guozhong: “My grandson, you absolutely cannot reach him…”
Yes, he was someone beyond her reach. Since she had already left, why bother troubling herself again?
With that thought, the cellphone in her fingers was tightly clenched in her palm.
She and Qin Sijue would no longer have any involvement with each other.
…
While still lost in thought, the door to the makeup room was suddenly pushed open.
Regaining her composure at the sound, she turned her head and saw a tall woman walk in, with a bandage wrapped around her forehead.
“Are you Gu Qiangwei?”
Gu Qiangwei stood up, clearly noticing a hint of hostility in the woman’s eyes.
“Mhm.”
“Pretty impressive, huh? A person with no acting experience at all, to just take away my role like that?”
Gu Qiangwei was slightly stunned.
Taken away her role?
