Back Then, I Adored You Chapter 222 Not His Wife 2

Gu Yusheng kept stroking the edge of the phone with his fingers. After a long while, he put the phone away, then tilted his head to look at the light drizzle outside the window, as if he was pondering over something very seriously. After a moment of losing himself in thought, he raised his hand and waved at Miss Zhang, his secretary who had came to England with him for the business trip, and whispered to her.

“Right now?” said Miss Zhang. She tilted her head in confusion and looked at Gu Yusheng, thinking that she might have heard wrong.

“Uh-huh,” responded Gu Yusheng.

Miss Zhang hastily took her phone out and started working on something. After about five minutes, Miss Zhang turned her head to Gu Yusheng, saying, “Master Gu, I’ve already called a car for you. The train ticket has also been booked. It will depart at 1:40 p.m. and arrive in Paris at 3:40 p.m.”

In Beijing, that’s 10:40 in the evening. An hour and twenty minutes will be left before her birthday ends.

That’s not too late…

Gu Yusheng thought about the time arrangements, then pulled the coat hung over the chair off and expressed his regret in English to the person sitting next to him. He asked Miss Zhang to attend the afternoon’s meeting for him, then left the restaurant.

The car that Miss Zhang had arranged for him was parked by the entrance of the restaurant. The restaurant was located in the shopping mall, with a luxury department store right across the street.

Gu Yusheng hesitated for a second before he got in the car. He then apologized to the driver to wait for him for another moment, then walked across the pavement and into the department store.

Gu Yusheng had never bought any gift for a girl. This was the first time. He was unsure while looking at various kinds of sparkling objects in front him.

He looked over the luxurious objects for a long while, but still couldn’t decide what to get for her. At last, he simply searched on the internet what he should give to a girl for her birthday, and the first prompt was jewelry, so he walked directly into a shop of an internationally famous brand.　　

When Gu Yusheng searched for what gifts to buy in the browser, he also saw another prompt: Pick expensive gifts for girls. The more expensive, the better. This is never wrong.

While he saw that, he sneered subconsciously.

Squandering money is so lame. Only bumpkins and the nouveau riche do that!

It’s the thought that counts the most. Thus, Gu Yusheng strolled around the shop carefully and picked the most beautiful necklace. When he paid for it at the checkout, he finally noticed its price… was the highest.

The CSK Live Broadcast lasted for an entire hour. After it ended, Qin Zhi’ai took a half-hour rest with Zhou Jing. After, she attended a commercial shooting. It was already four o’clock in the afternoon when everything was done.

Apart from an evening party that night, no other activities were left for Qin Zhi’ai to attend.

There were four hours left before dinner. Qin Zhi’ai’s phone was out of power, and the charger was in the hotel, which was only about fifteen feet away from the shooting site. Zhou Jing had a lot of things to do, so Qin Zhi’ai told her that she would wait for her in the hotel and left.

After about seven or eight minutes, Qin Zhi’ai made it to the entrance of the hotel.

When Qin Zhi’ai had just gone through the revolving door and was about to walk to the elevator, from a great distance, she saw the one person she thought she couldn’t possibly have met there.

Gu Yusheng.
