Like everyone else, Xia Yangyang reflexively looked towards the door.
The person who arrived was none other than Lu Haotian.
Lu Haotian also noticed Xia Yangyang.
Just now, Gong Xue’er had called him, asking him to join them at their classmates gathering. He wasn’t eager to, but Gong Xue’er said that Xia Yangyang was there too.
Therefore, he ended up here.
Of course, deep down, Lu Haotian knew that Xia Yangyang would likely never forgive him.
However, after such a long time without seeing her, he just wanted to see her again.
Upon seeing Lu Haotian, Xia Yangyang’s brow furrowed slightly. She should have anticipated it. Given Gong Xue’er’s uncommon generosity today, she was obviously trying to agitate her.
Gong Xue’er had already stood up and walked to the door, intimately hooking her arm around Lu Haotian’s. She introduced him to everyone, “This is my boyfriend, Lu Haotian.”
All the people present were from news and media backgrounds. Lu Haotian, the Crown Prince of Lu Group, was a gentleman from a famous family. Many young celebrities yearned to get to know him. His affairs would sometimes make the headline on entertainment news. However, he once publicly clarified to the media that he had a childhood sweetheart as a girlfriend.
No one expected that the childhood sweetheart of the Crown Prince was Gong Xue’er.
Yet, Lu Haotian’s gaze was still fixed on Xia Yangyang. Gong Xue’er shook his arm, “Haotian, these people are my classmates from the news club, greet them.”
It was as if Lu Haotian was brought back to reality. He calmly detached his arm from Gong Xue’er.
Then he walked towards Xia Yangyang.
“Yangyang, are you okay?” Lu Haotian abruptly asked.
Everyone there looked surprised. Since Lu Haotian arrived, he hadn’t even glanced at his girlfriend much, but instead warmly greeted Xia Yangyang.
From the very moment Lu Haotian had appeared, Xia Yangyang had started to feel down.
Someone gossiped from the side, “Young Master Lu, you know Yangyang too?”
At this moment, Gong Xue’er walked over with a big smile, hooking her arm around Lu Haotian’s and said, “Me, Haotian, and Yangyang, we grew up together, we’ve been friends for many years.”
Everyone made a look of understanding. Xia Yangyang and Gong Xue’er were already known to be close friends.
So, it wasn’t surprising that Xia Yangyang would know Gong Xue’er’s childhood sweetheart, especially since Xia Yangyang is a rich young lady herself.
But Xia Yangyang said nothing, picked up her purse, and bid everyone goodbye, “I need to leave first.”
Xia Yangyang quickly left the room. Lu Haotian wanted to follow her, but Gong Xue’er held on to his arm tightly.
Gong Xue’er whispered into Lu Haotian’s ear, “If you run after her now, and if rumors start swirling around Yangyang, I promise you, Yangyang will hate you even more.”
Lu Haotian turned back to take a look at Gong Xue’er. She was still smiling widely, her voice gentle, “Haotian, you’re so good to me, even accompanying me despite how busy you are.”
The crowd looked at the handsome man and the beautiful woman in front of them, feeling a sense of envy.
After leaving, Xia Yangyang started to feel a deep pain in her heart.
Unexpectedly, Xia Yangyang found herself missing Gu Qichen.
Is he still working late tonight?
Would he return to Maple Villa?
Just as Xia Yangyang hesitated to make a call to Gu Qichen, she saw a message from him.
[New York, three days]
A wave of intense disappointment flooded over Xia Yangyang. Gu Qichen was going on a business trip again.
Xia Yangyang returned directly to Maple Villa. The villa was enormous and overlooked to be incredibly empty.
The magazine featuring Gu Qichen’s interview was released.
The video of Gu Qichen’s interview was also uploaded to the campus video website.
For a while, the A University website traffic surged due to that one interview video, causing it to crash temporarily..
