With that, Chen Chen wanted to leave.

Gu Qian’s emotions finally stirred. He looked up and said, “Alright, I know your feelings for her. I respect your choice. But what I’ve decided has never changed.” With that, Gu Qian left before Chen Chen did.

Chen Chen stood there and finally knew what it meant to have mixed feelings.

From then on, he had been avoiding Gu Qian and taking care of Hu Wan silently. He did not think about these things anymore.

Gu Qian could not let go of his pride and did not pester him, but he could not control his emotions. He often silently protected Chen Chen’s safety. The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time.

At this point, Chen Chen sighed.

“I don’t know what Gu Qian told you or mentioned about Hu Wan, but what I said is the entire truth.”

“I know. I let him down. I was the one who stirred his heart first, but we had our own tacit understanding and did not disturb each other. At Heavenly Lake, I saw him at the filming location. On the one hand, I did not want you to misunderstand. On the other hand, I did not want to have any contact with him, so I left!” Chen Chen explained to Bai Ran.

Bai Ran was also surprised. She did not expect Chen Chen to hide from Gu Qian like this from the beginning to the end.

“Are you lying to me again?” Bai Ran thought about it and replied in disbelief.

“Silly, would I make up such a thing to lie to you? Furthermore, I said it in such detail. Am I that shameless in your eyes?” Chen Chen was instantly angry and smiled.

Bai Ran nodded in thought and said, “That’s true!”

With her understanding of Chen Chen, although he was quite bad at times, he was loyal and sincere to his friends. He would not lie like this.

“Speaking of Gu Qian, he even saved my life at the bottom of the Heavenly Lake Yunwu Mountain that day. I wonder when I can repay him,” Bai Ran said thoughtfully.

“I came to save you too. Why don’t you remember? Look, I haven’t recovered yet,” Chen Chen replied coquettishly. “You still dare to say that?! At that time, you actually misunderstood us… Our…” Bai Ran said unhappily.

She and Gu Qian had stayed at the bottom of the hole for the entire night and almost lost their lives. They had even used their clothes as rope to escape.

At that time, Chen Chen had misunderstood that they were alone and naked. They must have been fooling around.

“Don’t be angry. I was just anxious. Who wouldn’t feel anxious when they see their wife lying with another man wearing so little?” Chen Chen explained shyly.

Bai Ran glanced at him and said word by word, “We haven’t registered our divorce yet, but we’re already prepared to get a divorce. Please don’t call me that anymore, okay?”

Chen Chen asked for a rebuff and changed the topic. “Okay, okay. Let me ask you. Are you saying that Gu Qian saved you from the bottom of the hole that day?”

Bai Ran nodded in thought. “Not only did he save me, but he also almost lost his life. I’m not familiar with him. Now that you mention it today, I understand!”

“I knew it. Why was he so skilled? So many of you couldn’t find me, but he found me. Besides, the hole was so deep. It’s unbelievable that he could bring me out! Do you know? He was so tired that his hands were trembling, but he didn’t let go of me. Sigh, I wonder if I have a chance to repay him…” Bai Ran said to herself. She had been really touched that day.

When Chen Chen heard this, he was disappointed and frustrated, feeling mixed emotions.

Over the past few days, he had been avoiding Gu Qian and did not want to talk to him anymore. Gu Qian was also very tactful and did not pester him.

However, when it came to life and death, he would still rush out and save him at all costs.

He even loved her and saved the woman he loved!

He really had to repay this kindness!

Chen Chen was in a dilemma. He did not hate Gu Qian, but he really could not accept his feelings.

“Wait!” Bai Ran suddenly thought of something

She had heard of Gu Qian’s name as soon as she entered this industry and knew that he was a model who had become famous at a young age. Furthermore, she had heard that he was a business genius in private.

Later on, they even worked together. She would not remember wrongly.

“What’s wrong?” Chen Chen asked curiously. Bai Ran asked suspiciously, “Are you lying to me again? Gu Qian has been a model since he was young. He became famous at a young age, and everyone in the industry knows that. I heard that he’s a businessman in private and has a lot of influence. Are you saying that he became a mercenary when he was young?”
