"But, she clearly..." Jian Xi said with some concern.

Shen Qingli told Jian Xi what had just happened.

After finishing speaking, Jian Xi glanced at Tang Youyou.

She didn't believe that a person could let go of his previous prejudices just because someone saved his life. That would be too naive.

Lili was still too kind and actually believed what Tang Youyou said.

This was a misunderstanding of Shen Qingli. She just felt that she would leave the entertainment industry in the future and would have less contact with Tang Youyou.

She would be wary of Tang Youyou, but it wasn't that obvious.

At this time, Qiao Jinnian came after hearing the news.

He was covered in dust and looked anxious.

When he saw that Shen Qingli was safe and sound, his tense nerves immediately relaxed.

God knows, when he saw the news about the pervert being arrested at the event venue, he was so scared that he couldn't even hold his phone.

He instantly thought that Shen Qingli was still there after he left.

If anything happened to her, it would be his fault.

It was all his fault. He didn't stay and let the bad guys succeed.

"Qingli, are you okay?"

Shen Qingli heard the voice and slightly turned sideways.

When I met Qiao Jinnian's worried eyes, I felt a little touched.

She curled her lips and smiled: "I'm fine, sorry to make you worry."

"If I knew that person was there, I would never leave..."

Gu Peisi put his arm around Shen Qingli's waist, with a hint of possessiveness in his eyes.

He said to Qiao Jinnian provocatively: "Mr. Qiao, my wife is under my protection."

"Ahem, Jinnian, Youyou is here too." Shen Qingli stretched out her hand to block her cough.

She pretended to cough to remind Qiao Jinnian to stop talking.

Just now, Gu Peisi was still suspecting that she was with another man.

She thought it was troublesome and didn't want to explain.

What's more, Tang Youyou is still here, so we should be more careful.

When Qiao Jinnian met her eyes, he immediately understood what was going on.

When he heard her mention Tang Youyou, he turned around and looked at Tang Youyou.

"Youyou, so you are here."

Ever since Qiao Jinnian came in, Tang Youyou had been observing him.

Sure enough, in his eyes, there was only Shen Qingli.

If Shen Qingli hadn't mentioned that she was here, he probably wouldn't have noticed.

The worry on his face was so obvious, but he only showed ordinary concern for her.

Tang Youyou felt a pang of pain in her heart. When she heard Qiao Jinnian asking her, she was stunned for a moment before she spoke with a hint of bitterness in her voice. "Brother Jinnian, I've been here all the time."

When Qiao Jinnian heard this, he paused, with an embarrassed look on his face as if he had been exposed.

"Youyou, I..."

Tang Youyou raised the corner of his mouth with a bitter smile, "Brother Jinnian, I'm very tired. I'm leaving first."

If she didn't leave now, she was afraid of hearing words that would be hard for her to accept.

Besides, what happened today made her feel physically and mentally exhausted. At this moment, she just wanted to leave early.

Tang Youyou left, leaving a lonely back to everyone.

Remembering his mother's instructions, Qiao Jinnian turned to look at Shen Qingli and chased in the direction of Tang Youyou.

Outside on the street, Tang Youyou couldn't help but shed tears thinking about what had just happened.

"Youyou, I'll take you back."

Qiao Jinnian's voice sounded behind her.

Tang You You didn't want him to see her like this, so she quickly calmed down and pretended to be relaxed: "You must be tired tonight, my car will be here soon, so I won't bother you, Brother Jinnian."

As soon as she finished speaking, a black nanny car appeared in front of her.

Tang Youyou turned around and looked at him quietly, as if she wanted to remember his appearance at this moment.

"I'm leaving, Brother Jinnian."

It wasn't until Tang Youyou left that Qiao Jinnian realized that this was the first time she had rejected him.

Before, she always pestered him to accompany her.

After Tang Youyou and Qiao Jinnian left, Shen Qingli also planned to leave.

But Gu Peisi didn't seem to have any intention of letting go of the hand on her waist.

Shen Qingli nudged Gu Peisi with her elbow and said, "Okay, they're all gone, Gu Peisi, stop acting."

From the moment Qiao Jinnian came in, he acted like he loved her very much.

If she didn't know that he didn't love her, she would have been moved by his affectionate look.

Gu Peisi grabbed her arm and kneaded it gently, causing Shen Qingli to get goose bumps.

She only heard him say in her ear: "Shen Qingli, how do you know I was acting?"

These words were a bit strange, and didn't seem like something Gu Peisi would say.

Shen Qingli looked at Jian Xi for help. Jian Xi received her hint and coughed lightly.

"Li Li, the event is over, why don't you come to my place?"

Gu Peisi seemed to suddenly realize that Jian Xi was still here, and said coldly: "No need, she wants to go back to Jinyuan."

"Gu Peisi, when did I say I wanted to go back to Jinyuan?" Shen Qingli was immediately angry.

The dress she was wearing was borrowed from Jian Xi, and she had to return it to her.

What's more, she didn't want to go back to the place where she had no good memories. Once she went back there, she would think of the silly self she used to be.

Gu Peisi guessed that she would say that, and he stopped her with one sentence. "Have you forgotten? You promised me that you would cooperate with me and hide the matter of Grandpa."

Grandpa, just keep talking about grandpa. For a moment, Shen Qingli felt a little depressed.

"I promised you, but grandpa is not here..."

For some reason, she just didn't want to follow his wishes. It was his own decision.

"That's not up to you!"

Without waiting for Shen Qingli to react, Gu Peisi bent down and picked up Shen Qingli.

"Ah!" Shen Qingli's heart was in her throat as her body was lifted into the air, fearing that she would fall. She held Gu Peisi's neck tightly with her arms.

"Why are you screaming like an idiot? I won't make you fall." Gu Peisi said these words with disdain, but his arms were holding Shen Qingli's entire body.

Thinking that Jian Xi was still watching, Shen Qingli slapped Gu Peisi, "Gu Peisi, put me down."

Gu Peisi stared at her with his pair of dark eyes. This oppressive look made Shen Qingli swallow the rest of her words.

Even with someone in his arms, Gu Peisi's body was still as steady as a rock.

After staring blankly at their figures going away, Jian Xi finally realized that her good friend had been taken away by Gu Peisi again.

The two returned to the car, and Shen Qingli was pressed by Gu Peisi to the passenger seat and fastened with a seat belt.

There was no room for maneuver after going to Jinyuan, so Shen Qingli could only accept her fate.

She took out her cell phone and sent a message to Jian Xi.

[Shen Qingli]: Xixi, I will send the dress to the dry cleaner tomorrow and send it back after it is cleaned.

Jian Xi's assistant drove the car in front of her. As soon as she got in the car, she received a message.

I clicked on it and saw it was from Shen Qingli.

[Jian Xi]: Lili, this dress is not expensive, so I’ll give it to you.

When Shen Qingli saw the message, she quickly refused.

[Shen Qingli]: How can that be possible? Just tell me how much this dress costs and I will buy it. Don't worry, I have money now.
