Chapter 298: Song Ling is Jealous

Translator: _Min_ |

Gu Dai, unsure if it was due to her past memory loss, genuinely couldnt recall much about her campus life.

She honestly replied, I dont remember.

Gu Si almost ground her teeth in frustration. She couldnt believe someone would forget their past boyfriends, a.s.suming Gu Dai was just brus.h.i.+ng her off.

Frustrated, yet trying to maintain her composure, Gu Si forced a laugh, Maybe there were too many chasing after you, so you cant remember just now.

Gu Dai had no interest in discussing such personal matters with Gu Si and simply nodded, giving a non-committal response to end the conversation.

While both Gu Dai and Gu Si didnt take the matter seriously, Song Ling dwelled on it.

He speculated that given Gu Dais attractiveness, many must have pursued her, and her current claim of not remembering might just be about how many relations.h.i.+ps she had.

This thought led Song Ling to imagine Gu Dai with various men, which darkened his mood further. He became more withdrawn and aloof.

Failing to gain much ground with Gu Dai, Gu Si was in a somewhat sour mood. Eager to establish a connection with Song Ling and add him to her network, she was so focused on her goal that she failed to notice Song Lings gloomy expression.

With a smile, Gu Si spoke, trying to engage Song Ling, I remember reading in a magazine that President Song also studied abroad. Given your remarkable abilities, the school you attended must have been exceptional too.

Song Ling, upon hearing overseas, blurted out, I never dated anyone during that time.

Gu Si was taken aback, as she hadnt asked about his romantic life.

Gu Dai, surprised by Song Lings misunderstanding, briefly glanced at him, finding it unusual for the business-savvy Song Ling to misinterpret a conversation.

Realizing the attention focused on him from both Gu Si and Gu Dai, Song Ling suddenly became aware of what Gu Si had just asked and his own response. A flicker of embarra.s.sment crossed his face, but he quickly regained his composure, masking the brief moment of awkwardness.

Gu Si, seeing Song Lings unaffected demeanor, complimented, President Song has always been upright, no wonder youve achieved so much with the Song Corporation.

Gu Dai, hearing this, couldnt help but think that Gu Si was determined to latch onto Song Lings influence.

Song Ling showed no reaction to Gu Sis flattery.

Used to being admired wherever she went, Gu Si was finding it difficult to maintain her grace after repeatedly hitting cold walls today.

Gu Dai, noticing Gu Sis discontent, couldnt help but let out a quiet laugh.

Song Ling, hearing her laughter, relaxed slightly and asked, What are you laughing at?

Gu Dai, not wanting to openly mock Gu Si, covered it up with another topic instead, Im just happy about the virtue youre being praised for.

Song Ling, noticing that Gu Dai was no longer treating him coldly, felt a surge of joy inside. However, this feeling quickly turned to dismay upon thinking about Gu Dais past relations.h.i.+ps. In a cold tone, he said, You dont need to be happy for me. If you wish, you could be the same.

Gu Dai felt speechless.

As Gu Dai reflected on how Song Ling had remained faithful to Jiang Yue, as well as his attentive and almost unfaithful-like behavior towards Jiang Yue during their marriage, she felt repulsed.

After a long silence, she quietly said, Id rather not.

Rather not? Did Gu Dai mean she couldnt let go of those men?

Realizing this, Song Lings expression darkened, and a cold aura began to emanate from him.

Gu Si rubbed her arms, feeling gooseb.u.mps from the chilly atmosphere, especially sensing something akin to jealousy from Song Ling.

The thought that Song Ling, such an outstanding individual, could possibly have feelings for Gu Dai seemed absurd to Gu Si. She shook her head, dismissing the idea as a mere illusion.

In her mind, a man of Song Lings stature would prefer a gentle, virtuous partner who would pamper and care for him in all aspects of life, not someone with a cold and difficult temperament like Gu Dai.

Regretting her own timing, Gu Si couldnt help but wish she had been born two decades later. If she were of similar age to Song Ling, she could have used her charms to attract him and marry into the wealthy Song family..
