Flash Marriage with My Ex-Boyfriend’s Nemesis - Chapter 8.2

“My number is 159…” Ning Qingqing was about to report her number when she seemed to remember something, she quickly took out her phone, clicked on the message Gu Youchen sent her, and one digit at a time, she typed her phone number.

Clicking send, she raised her tiny face: “Sent!”

“Alright.” Gu Youchen looked at her screen: “You should save my number.”

“Oh.” Ning Qingqing nodded, and in where the man could see, she copied his phone number and added it to her contacts.

While entering his name, she yawned, her fingers instinctually typing: “Tiramisu-loving joker”.

Gu Youchen looked at this title, and the corners of his lips twitched.

He said to her, “Go home early and take care of your safety.”

Ning Qingqing yawned again and nodded, “Oh, okay, bye~.”

As she spoke, she pulled Qiao Xiaomian, who was still in a daze thinking about asking Gu Youchen to tell a few jokes, and left together.

When the two of them reached the door, Gu Youchen had already followed them there.

“”

The whole way there, he was walking behind the two until they entered the neighborhood. After confirming that the neighborhood was safe, he turned around and returned to the pub.

“Wow, Brother Chen is awesome. Just now, were you sending the girl home?”

“Brother Chen, did you get her number? Did you also just give the girl your number? It couldn’t be that you actually fell for that girl, right?!” The group of people didn’t dare to get too close earlier, so they couldn’t hear their conversation.

“Didn’t you guys see clearly? That girl was super beautiful! But why does she look a bit familiar, like I’ve met her somewhere before?”

“Hold up, isn’t she Shen Zhiqian’s girlfriend? Once at a party, I saw Shen Zhiqian bring her with him. I heard that they have been together since high school…”

Everyone couldn’t help but look at Gu Youchen.

Gu Youchen’s face no longer had any expression, but his eyes were cold: “Where there’s no marriage, no one can say for sure!”

…

The next day, Ning Qingqing arrived at the company right on the dot.

Fortunately, the alcohol she drank wasn’t strong, so she didn’t get the headache you would get when hungover.

As soon as she turned on the computer, she received Kenny’s email. Together, they needed to revise the details of several sections.

Ning Qingqing spent the whole morning trying to finalize the contract with the other party until Kenny finally agreed to all the terms.

After submitting the contract to the legal manager for review, Ning Qingqing didn’t have time to relax at all, because a lot of terms also needed to be discussed and confirmed for another project she worked on earlier.

If it wasn’t for the urgency of Si Luoqing’s matter, normally she would’ve worked on that project first.

“Qingqing, the contract with Kenny has been approved, but you will have to make a trip to their company.” A colleague from the public relations department sent over the signed contract:

“It’s because Si Luoqing is participating in a fashion event at 8 o’clock tonight, and she’s flying to Haicheng early tomorrow morning. The contract would deliver too late even if we used express delivery, so I can only trouble you.”

Ning Qingqing checked the time after hearing these words, it was already five o’clock in the afternoon.

She asked, “What time are they leaving the company to attend the event?”

The colleague took a moment to confirm, and replied, “they said that they will depart at 6:30; you should make it on time if you leave now. But it’s the rush hour now, so it’s best to take the subway to avoid the congestion.”

Ning Qingqing agreed, and after double-checking that each page of the contract was signed, she put the contract in a briefcase and departed from the company.

After taking the subway and making her way to Si Luoqing’s company lobby, it was already six o’clock in the afternoon. Ning Qingqing took out her phone and gave Kenny a call.

However, no one picked up the first time, and the second time the call was about to automatically end before the other side finally picked up. Listening to the noise in the background, he was clearly outside: “Miss Ning.”

Ning Qingqing had a bad premonition: “Mr. Kenny, I’m here to hand the contract over to you, and take your signed contract with me at the same time.”

Kenny seemed to just remember this matter: “I’m sorry, Miss Ning, how could I have forgotten, it’s all my fault! Now we’re in trouble, we have already left for the event. Luoqing’s signature stamp is here with me. Even if you rush over now it’ll be too late. How about this, why don’t you wait at the company for a while, and I will try to get back as soon as possible?”

Ning Qingqing took a deep breath and suppressed all emotions: “Okay, I will put the contract with the lady at the front desk of your company. After you finish, stamp it and send it to the inbox in our company’s lobby.”

Kenny obviously didn’t expect her to do this, he hesitated for a few seconds and said, “Well, wait for me in our company, I’ll send Luo Qing to the scene now, and when she gets there, I’ll rush back right away. ”

Ning Qingqing could only agree: “Okay.”

However, Kenny’s so-called “right away” was to make her wait from 6 in the afternoon to 9 in the evening.

With the signature finally stamped on, when Ning Qingqing took the contract from Kenny, she met the man’s condescending gaze.

“Miss Ning, what I said to you that day, did you finally fully understand after today?”

Ning Qingqing knew what he meant. Kenny was only hinting to her that this contract was finalized so quickly only because of Shen Yeyuan’s personal instructions. The Shen family’s intentions were self-evident.

“I do understand.” Ning Qingqing looked him directly in the eyes: “I will remember what happened today.”

Another day, she will get it back.

Ning Qingqing walked out of the building only to find that it was raining heavily outside.

She stood at the door of the building and opened the ride-hailing app, but no one took her request.

She raised the price, and finally, someone took the request, but the car was still seven or eight kilometers away.

“”

And when she looked at the map, the road was all red, it was obviously quite congested.

Ning Qingqing glanced at the subway station that was more than 100 meters away, gritted her teeth, and ran into the rain.

At this moment, a bright black car passed by Ning Qingqing’s side, and because of its speed, it splashed all the rainwater from the ground onto Ning Qingqing’s body.

She turned her head sharply, only to see the car flicker its lights on purpose like it was humiliating her!

Without the time to vent, Ning Qingqing could only prevent the kraft paper bag in her hand from getting wet by running all the way into the subway station.

At this moment, her phone rang, and it was a video call from Shen Zhiqian.

The author has something to say:

Well, Qingqing will finally directly ask Shen Zhiqian about the marriage subject tomorrow, so the emotions of breaking up are continuing to build up and will erupt soon!

Gu Youchen: I got my wife’s phone number ~ My wife is so sweet after drinking~

Qingqing: What happened last night? What on earth is “Tiramisu-loving joker”? I don’t recognize this, got to delete it!

Gu Youchen:  …
