“What is it?” Gu Shaoting frowned.
“I’m at my hotel now. I think someone was following me when I came back just now. I’m so scared. Can you come over?” Tong Fei told him her reason. She spoke very softly because she was afraid.
“You should call the police or go to the hotel front desk.” Gu Shaoting suggested. He didn’t want to get himself into any trouble.
“Shaoting, on account that we’ve known each other for years and that we’re still engaged…” Tong Fei tried to appeal to him emotionally and rationally.
“Where are you?” Gu Shaoting asked. Since she said that, he might as well make things clear with her.
Tong Fei was secretly delighted. She knew that he would come. After giving him the address, she called a reporter she knew.
Tong Fei picked out a strappy silk satin nightie. It was as thin as a veil and barely covered her body.
She then sprayed some perfume behind her ears and practiced her seductive look in the mirror.
The hotel she was staying at was not far away. After all, they were at the most prosperous area of France.
Gu Shaoting arrived very quickly. When he arrived, he looked around and didn’t see anyone suspicious. He then called Tong Fei, told her that he was there and asked her to come downstairs for a chat.
Tong Fei was fully prepared for this. She gave Gu Shaoting all kinds of excuses and invited him to talk in her room. After all, she was a celebrity, and it would be inappropriate for her to meet a man in the middle of the night. It would become an issue if the media caught her on camera. She was still somewhat famous in France.
Gu Shaoting thought what she said made sense. He also wouldn’t be able to explain himself if Shu Pan saw him in any of those photos.
So, Gu Shaoting went along with Tong Fei’s suggestion. He smelt a sweet scent as he entered her room and couldn’t help but frown.
“Tong Fei, I’m very sorry, but I wasn’t joking with you before. I was serious when I said that I wanted to cancel our engagement. I’ll compensate you as long as it’s within my ability.” Gu Shaoting said seriously.
After all, he was the one who suggested the annulment. He hoped to talk things out like adults and avoid any kind of fallout.
“Shaoting, did I do something wrong?” Tong Fei sat next to Gu Shaoting and rested her slender hand on his thigh.
Gu Shaoting immediately shifted his leg and Tong Fei’s hand missed.
Gu Shaoting got a little impatient with her behavior and said, “It wasn’t anything. I just feel that we are not suited for each other, and I don’t want to hold you back.”
He didn’t look to his side and turned a blind eye to the sexily dressed Tong Fei.
No matter how Tong Fei teased him, Gu Shaoting was as apathetic as a robot.
If not because Tong Fei had seen Gu Shaoting in love, she would have thought that he wasn’t into women.
“It’s getting late, and I must go. But I hope that I won’t hear you call yourself my fiancée again. This is my fault, so I’ll let you announce the annulment of our engagement.” Gu Shaoting thought that it would be better for her reputation. After all, he was the one who suggested the annulment and he wanted to make it up to her.
Gu Shaoting then opened the door to leave.
But Tong Fei suddenly held his hand without a care for the thin nightie she had on. People not in the know might think that they were parting as a couple after a night of passion.
“Tong Fei, I hope that we can part on good terms and remain as friends.” Gu Shaoting flung her hand away.
He then turned his eyes away from Tong Fei and strode out.
Tong Fei watched him leave, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up.
A figure in a corner gave her an “OK” gesture..
