Thomas's eyes gradually darkened. He was sad, but he also understood Cheng Qingyun.

How could a woman who had been hurt by love easily walk out of her pain?

But it didn't matter. Thomas would be waiting silently by the side. He believed that one day, this gentle and beautiful woman would let down her guard and accept his love.

Cheng Qingyun actually liked Mr. Thomas very much. He was young, devoted, and most importantly, powerful. However, Cheng Qingyun would not let Thomas get her love easily.

She was too good at controlling men's thoughts.

The more unattainable a woman was, the more men would be tempted.

She would slowly make Thomas fall in love with her, unable to extricate himself. One day, she would step on Thomas'shoulders and climb to the peak of power, leading a life of wealth that everyone envied.

Song Chen, Gu Manxi, Cheng Qi, Cheng Kaiyuan, they weren't even worthy of carrying her shoes!

She would make everyone who had ever hurt her pay a bone-piercing price!

"Mr. Thomas, I'm a little tired.

" Cheng Qingyun hid her monstrous ambition. Her beautiful eyes were gentle and fragile, like a delicate butterfly swaying in the wind and rain.

Thomas quickly held her hand.

"Okay, I'll bring you back to rest.

"

Thomas maintained his gentlemanly manners and brought Cheng Qingyun out of the hotel.

——

On the other hand, Gu Chu had already packed up her bags and headed to the airport, preparing to board the plane to return home.

In the VIP Lounge, Gu Chu turned on her phone and video called Gu Manxi.

"Mommy, Chuchu is going home soon.

" Gu Chu smiled sweetly.

"Mommy, you have to do well at work. Keep yourself healthy and don't get sick.

"

Gu Manxi smiled.

"Our Chuchu is so sensible. You already know to care about Mommy.

"

Gu Chu tilted her little head. She pouted and acted coquettishly.

"I've always cared about Mommy. Mommy is working so hard. Oh right, I bought you a nice-looking handbag in America. I asked Brother Cheng Qi to send it to you.

"

"Thank you, Chuchu.

"

"You're welcome. When I grow up, I'll definitely earn a lot of money for Mommy.

" Only in front of Gu Manxi, would Gu Chu become a pure and innocent child.

The atmosphere between the mother and daughter was warm, loving, and happy.

It was not until the flight back to China was ready to depart that Gu Chu hung up the phone reluctantly.

There were some changes on this trip back to China. There were four people when they came, and five when they went back -- there was an additional Lin Xiaozhou.

Lin Xiaozhou greeted everyone awkwardly,

"Hello everyone... let's go back to China together.

"

Gu Chu was quite surprised.

"Brother Xiaozhou?

"

Lin Xiaozhou glanced at Zhao Yan from the corner of his eyes. He suddenly turned his head guiltily and sat down next to Gu Chu. He turned on his chatterbox mode and chatted with Gu Chu. The plane set off. Throughout the entire journey, Lin Xiaozhou did not say a word to Zhao Yan. He only cared about chatting with Gu Chu.

Cheng Qi was the most upset one.

He wanted to be alone with Gu Chu...

However, this Lin Xiaozhou was thick-skinned. Throughout the entire journey, he stuck to Gu Chu like glue. Cheng Qi gritted his teeth in secret. He was helpless.

Luckily, Lin Xiaozhou did not move out of Zhao Yan's apartment.

After returning to the capital, Lin Xiaozhou carried his luggage and quietly ran up to the second floor. He closed the door and made himself comfortable.

On the other hand, Zhao Yan, who was shut outside the door, actually had a hint of a smile on his usually expressionless, cold and handsome face. Gu Chu became more and more curious. What exactly did Zhao Yan and Lin Xiaozhou talk about that afternoon?

The atmosphere between the two of them right now.... was extremely peculiar.
