Chapter 4 It's Too Late

It was late in the evening and many stories were playing out quietly. Su Qingtian, Su Mumu's father, did not see Su Mumu at the dining table. He frowned and looked at Zhang Yanhua. "Where's Mumu?"

Zhang Yanhua was stunned at first then revealed a decent smile. "There may be some delay. Maybe she's eating outside."

Su Qingtian nodded and instructed. "Remember to call her. Ask her to come back early tonight."

Zhang Yanhua replied with a smile and gave Su Qingtian a piece of braised pork. Su Qingtian's face softened a lot. Su Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes impatiently. She was also the daughter. If she didn't go home, her father wouldn't even ask. Could Su Mumu be given preferential treatment just because her mother was dead?

Su Wenyuan watched everyone quietly, especially observing his elder sister. When he saw the dissatisfaction on Su Xiaoxiao's face. He cursed in his heart. What a fool.

Zhang Yanhua smiled at her son, Su Wenyuan, who was the only one who comforted her. Her daughter could not hold her temper. Although she was Wenyuan's elder sister, she was immature and did not know how to restrain herself. On the contrary, Wenyuan knew how to keep a low profile, which was very important in a large family.

At six o'clock the next morning, Gu Chen had arrived at Su Mumu's villa. After he knocked at the door, Su Mumu quickly came out to open the door. She was very energetic and was completely out of touch with what she looked like yesterday. The corner of Gu Chen's mouth twitched. Was this woman's recovery ability so strong?

"Why are you here so early? Is there anything urgent?" Su Mumu asked curiously.

A thin layer of sweat formed on Gu Chen's forehead. Su Mumu handed him the towel. Gu Chen was stunned for a moment before he caught the towel and wiped the sweat. There was a faint scent on the towel. Gu Chen coughed awkwardly. "Have you seen my phone?"

"No. But don't worry. I can help you find it." Su Mumu smiled and continued to ask. "When was the last time you saw your phone?"

"When I sent you here yesterday, I took it out to have a look. When I went back, it was gone." Gu Chen was a little depressed.

"Ah? I remember now." Su Mumu gave Gu Chen a weird look. "Did you leave your phone in the bushes?"

When Gu Chen heard this, his face darkened and he hurriedly ran out to look for his phone. Sure enough, he saw his phone in the bushes. Gu Chen picked it up and looked at it. There were more than a dozen calls from Xiao Qing on it. Oh no, was Xiao Qing looking for him for something very important?

"By the way, Xiao Qing came last night. Your fiancee is very beautiful and she's a good match for you." Su Mumu heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Gu Chen had found his phone.

"Did she tell you why she looked for me?" Gu Chen was puzzled. Since Xiao Qing could come here to look for him, why couldn't she go to his house to find him? It's not like she didn't know the way to it, was it?

"No, it's just a small talk. Xiao Qing praised you for being a romantic man." Su Mumu replied.

"She's going abroad today. What gift do you think I should give her?" Gu Chen looked at Su Mumu and asked.

"Nothing would be better than you accompanying her abroad." After pondering, Su Mumu gave the answer.

"I suggested the same thing, but Xiao Qing refused. She's very kind and doesn't want to affect my development in China." Gu Chen said with a sigh.

"Since Xiao Qing is your fiancée, why don't you give her a ring? Isn't that a way to express your feelings? It's also very meaningful." Su Mumu thought for a moment and found that the ring was a very choice. Last night, she couldn't figure out why Xiao Qing didn't wear an engagement ring since they were engaged.

"Xiao Qing is just my girlfriend. I was going to..." In fact, he planed to propose to her last night. Gu Chen didn't finish the sentence, for he didn't want Su Mumu to feel guilty.

Su Mumu was stunned. She did not expect Xiao Qing would lie to her. After a pause, Su Mumu said. "Since that's the case, then prepare a ring. It's not too late to rush to the airport."

"Can you come with me?" Gu Chen suggested.

"Ah? It is not appropriate?" Su Mumu didn't want to cause Xiao Qing's misunderstanding.

"Just do me a favor. Let's talk about it on the way." Gu Chen dragged Su Mumu into the car without hesitation. Su Mumu took Gu Chen's sunglasses and put them on.

"What are you doing?" Gu Chen looked at Su Mumu gloomily. He felt like he had found a teammate who was stupid like a pig.

"Come on. I'm the daughter of the Su family. I don't want to get involved in the gossip." Especially when her stepmother was fixing her eyes on her. Su Mumu muttered a few words of dissatisfaction.

"Ahem, time is running out. I'll send you back later." Gu Chen started the car as he spoke.

On the way, Gu Chen asked shyly. "Well, Xiao Qing is leaving. You think what should I say? Besides, will she agree to my proposal?"

"She should agree. I can tell that Xiao Qing loves you very much." Su Mumu leaned back and closed her eyes.

"You can see that?" Gu Chen looked at Su Mumu in surprise. He thought Su Mumu was just a spoiled young lady.

"You can't fool people with your eyes." After saying this, Su Mumu stopped talking.

Along the way, Gu Chen was like a young boy in love who kept asking questions. Su Mumu felt that she had become a real big sister and kept cheering on Gu Chen.

Fortunately, it wasn't too far from the airport. They would have arrived in an hour. Otherwise, Su Mumu would have felt her ears were covered with calluses.

Looking at Su Mumu who came with Gu Chen, Xiao Qing's heart ached. Did he have to take Su Mumu to see her off? Moreover, Su Mumu obviously didn't have time to get changed. She was wearing a cartoon outfit and a pair of sunglasses, which made her feel weird. Waited. The sunglasses were Gu Chen's!

Thinking of this, Xiao Qing could not help but shed tears. She rushed forward and hugged Gu Chen, as if Gu Chen would disappear in the next second.

"If you don't want to go, you can stay. I'll support you." Gu Chen reached out and wiped Xiao Qing's tears.

Not leaving? Didn't she sacrifice in vain last night? After adjusting her emotions, Xiao Qing smiled at Gu Chen. "I just can't bear to part with you. You must wait for me."

Gu Chen thought of not answering the call and could not help but ask. "Qingqing, you called me a dozen times last night. Was there something urgent?"

"Nothing. I just miss you. I'm leaving. Wait for me." After saying that, Xiao Qing let go of Gu Chen and left with her luggage.

Gu Chen's heart gradually turned cold and he nodded. "Have a safe journey. Be careful."

After Xiao Qing left, Gu Chen's face darkened. Su Mumu cautiously glanced at Gu Chen and turned her head. What's going on? He was so touched just now. But in an instant, he became so depressed now.

After getting in the car, Su Mumu asked curiously. "Why not propose?"

Gu Chen sneered. "I could smell a man's perfume on her."

Su Mumu was shocked. She thought it was a big deal. So she waved her hand and comfort him. "Isn't it just perfume? There are so many people at the airport that it's possible to bump into someone else. It's just normal."

Gu Chen sneered. "I also saw the hickey marks on her neck. It seems that the sex was extremely intense. There were even blood scars and teeth marks on her." Despite all his dedication, what he only got was a lie. Gu Chen felt his heart had been torn apart and he was suffocating from the pain!
