Chapter 524: Uneasy For Some Reason

Some waves had formed in her calm heart.

Much less Qin w.a.n.ge.

When it came time for her to meet with the Chief Instructor, the trio prepared to leave the mall.

Since Qin w.a.n.ge was going to bring Qi Yuefeng to eat, Gu Qingjiu left from there.

While Qi Yuefeng was away in the toilet, the two of them stood outside. Qin w.a.n.ge tugged at Gu Qingjiu’s arm as she asked, “Sister Qingjiu, do you know Ye Henyu?”

She felt uneasy and panicky.

“Sister w.a.n.ge, is there a problem?”

Gu Qingjiu was also planning to make things clear with Qin w.a.n.ge. She saw that there wasn’t anger and only a peaceful calmness in Qin w.a.n.ge’s eyes. “I’m just curious why you want to hide it from my older brother. Sister w.a.n.ge, your family background isn’t simple, right?”

Others could detect certain problems from one’s mannerisms.

Gu Qingjiu had a pretty good impression of Qin w.a.n.ge. She could sense that Qin w.a.n.ge was treating her and Qi Yuefeng with sincere concern.

It was why Gu Qingjiu was so calm about it.

“I…”

Qin w.a.n.ge lowered her head that it made her appear panicky and helpless. There also was a hint of sorrow in the depths of her eyes. “I have no idea how to tell your older brother about such matters. I’m afraid he…”

“You’re afraid my older brother will overthink this? You don’t have to.”

Gu Qingjiu sighed. “I know my older brother well. He’s not a person who will give up on liking someone because there’s some disparity between the two of you. I feel that he likes you very much.”

Back then, when he spoke of his girlfriend in front of Gu Qingjiu, there was fondness written in his eyes.

“Of course, this is between you and my older brother. It’s up to you to decide if you want to be honest about this, Sister w.a.n.ge. Even now that I’m aware of it, I won’t interfere. Because this is between the two of you.”

Gu Qingjiu expressed her stand very clearly. “He is my older brother, so I don’t wish to see him be hurt, but this is part of growing up. If it’s hard for you to tell him because of your family background, I can understand this. But if something were to happen in the future, things will become complicated. The longer you hide it from him, the deeper the hurt will be. My older brother won’t have an opinion about your family background, but he will be sad that you hid it from him.”

Gu Qingjiu was aware that her family was an ordinary one, and she also understood how someone’s mind, with the likes of Qin w.a.n.ge, worked.

One had to consider a problem from different angles.

Like how Gu Qingjiu wouldn’t rebut Qin w.a.n.ge’s thinking just because she felt her older brother wasn’t inferior to anyone.

But if such a matter was kept hidden, it would undoubtedly result in dreadful consequences.

“Sister Qingjiu…”

Qin w.a.n.ge’s face was pale, perhaps from shame.

She hadn’t expected Gu Qingjiu to see things even more clearly than her after guessing what her situation was.

Also, she could empathize with her. But the more she did, the more guilty Qin w.a.n.ge felt.

She felt ashamed that she couldn’t even see things as clearly as an 18-year-old girl.

“I’ll repeat the same thing I said.” Seeing that Qi Yuefeng was coming out of the toilet, Gu Qingjiu said one final thing. “I won’t tell my older brother about this because you need to tell him this yourself. Just know what you need to do, Sister w.a.n.ge. As a younger sister, there’s only so much I can say.”

And then, Qi Yuefeng appeared before the two of them.

With a doting smile, she asked, “What were the two of you chatting about?”

Qin w.a.n.ge’s pale countenance made her feel uneasy for some reason.
