Chapter 568

~8 min read 1,426 words

Good friend.

The more casually Gao Zhan said these three words, the colder Liang Shishi's heart felt.

And Shen Ci sat upright in her seat, looked at Liang Shishi, and said with a smile: "Hello Liang Shishi, Gao Zhan often mentions you to me!"

Of course, he hadn't mentioned her. Shen Ci said this on purpose.

Because if Gao Zhan often mentioned another person of the opposite sex to his girlfriend, it proved that the other person had no special place in Gao Zhan's heart. If it were some childhood sweetheart or white moonlight, a normal man would definitely avoid talking about it in front of his girlfriend.

However, as a woman herself, Shen Ci had no hostility toward Liang Shishi, and she was only acting as Gao Zhan's one-day girlfriend today.

But even as a one-day girlfriend, she had to be fully committed to be worthy of Gao Zhan's trust. So Shen Ci could clearly realize at this moment that, from the perspective of her current status as Gao Zhan's official girlfriend, this girl named Liang Shishi would definitely not give her any good looks.

Sure enough, as soon as she opened her mouth, Liang Shishi looked over with cold eyes.

But her lips were smiling, and her entire expression carried aggression.

Liang Shishi raised her eyebrows slightly, releasing a cold sneer with her expression: "Oh? Is that so? What has he told you?"

Liang Shishi thought her aggressive look could intimidate Shen Ci, making her understand that it wasn't her turn to interrupt when she was talking to Gao Zhan.

And no matter what Shen Ci's answer was, she could use a remark like "That's right, we've been childhood sweethearts, and our relationship has always been deep" to reclaim the main stage.

But Shen Ci just gently tucked the stray hair behind her ear and responded softly: "Just some trivial matters. I wasn't very interested, so I didn't take them to heart and don't remember them."

Her tone seemed gentle, but in reality, the aggression inside was stronger than Liang Shishi's.

Liang Shishi was also a clever girl and immediately heard the meaning in Shen Ci's words, her face darkening.

But she didn't give in and turned to look at Gao Zhan: "I didn't expect you to mention our past to your girlfriend."

"There's nothing that can't be mentioned, just idle chatter," Gao Zhan said calmly: "She wanted to know about my past and wanted to understand me better."

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Shen Ci. Shen Ci also raised her eyes to look back. The two of them looking at each other was exceptionally well-matched. Gao Min, who was opposite, saw this and couldn't help but put her hands together in front of her chest, completely crazy about the couple!

"Is that so? Then I don't know if your girlfriend understands you better, or if I, your 'good friend', understand you better?" Liang Shishi deliberately emphasized the stress on the three words "good friend," and then glanced at Shen Ci with contempt: "Do you know Gao Zhan's blood type and zodiac sign?"

Shen Ci raised her eyebrows and nodded as a matter of course: "Type A, Aries."

Liang Shishi: "Do you know what he doesn't eat?"

Shen Ci: "He doesn't eat celery, large intestines, or durian. For fish, he only eats sea fish."

Before Liang Shishi could continue asking, Shen Ci continued on her own: "He likes cats but is allergic to cat hair, and he likes to eat soft peaches but is also allergic to peach fuzz."

"When he was little, he stuttered and got carsick. Both of these problems healed themselves when he was ten."

"He likes green and blue, and doesn't like red and yellow..."

As she spoke, Shen Ci pointed to the goose-yellow cashmere coat Liang Shishi was wearing today: "Just like the yellow you're wearing."

Liang Shishi: "..."

Her face had already turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Gao Min listened to Shen Ci finish saying all this in one breath and was even more crazy about the couple.

Gao Zhan just stared straight at Shen Ci as she handled the sudden situation with ease, shocked in his heart that she had actually remembered all the information related to him.

"Is there anything else Miss Liang would like to ask about my boyfriend?" Shen Ci asked with a smile, her eyes cold.

"Alright," Gao Zhan said, raising his hand to interlock his fingers with Shen Ci's, looking at Liang Shishi and saying softly: "A-Ci definitely understands me, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to be with me."

The implication was that he was the one who pursued her.

Liang Shishi felt jealous, but she softened her expression and attitude on the surface because she knew what occasion it was today.

She shrugged: "I'm your childhood friend, it's inevitable to ask a few more questions when seeing your girlfriend for the first time, no other meaning."

Since the other party softened first, Shen Ci naturally wouldn't continue to be aggressive.

Gao Zhan didn't speak, but silently took a milk candy from the small plate in front of him, peeled off the wrapper, and sent it to Shen Ci's lips: "You just recovered from being sick, I guess we'll have to wait a while for the banquet to start, eat a candy first."

Shen Ci opened her mouth to take the candy and smiled at Gao Zhan.

She had originally thought that with his personality, acting out such a scenario today would be very stiff, but she didn't expect him to be so good at it. Many of his little expressions of affection and his unabashed display of love were done extremely naturally.

Seeing this, Gao Min wished she could scream on the spot. What was acted in idol dramas was weak; the live version was the real deal!

And the looks of her brother and Sister A-Ci were more pleasing to the eye than the actors in the drama, especially Sister A-Ci. This face was too authoritative; she was directly fainting from the excitement!

"Brother, I want to eat candy too!" Gao Min said deliberately.

Upon hearing this, Gao Zhan raised his hand and pushed the plate of candy directly in front of his sister: "Eat whatever you want!"

"Why did you only peel the candy wrapper for Sister A-Ci?" Gao Min curled her lips: "I want one too!"

Gao Zhan said expressionlessly: "Then go find a boyfriend yourself."

As he spoke, he stood up and took Shen Ci's hand, his tone softening directly: "My dad and grandfather should be arriving soon, let's go to the gate to welcome them!"

Shen Ci nodded and let Gao Zhan lead her toward the main gate.

Liang Shishi sat there watching their backs. Even if she didn't want to admit it, they really looked like a perfect match.

She had always felt that no one was worthy of Gao Zhan except herself, but today, seeing his girlfriend, she was truly too beautiful—so beautiful that even she had to admit it.

"They're such a perfect match, right, Sister Shishi?" Gao Min's voice drifted over faintly.

Liang Shishi withdrew the look in her eyes and pretended not to hear, taking out her phone to fiddle with it.

"Are you okay?" At the main gate, Gao Zhan said apologetically: "Her personality has been quite strong since she was a child, don't take it to heart."

The scene just now was a completely sudden situation. Gao Zhan felt Shen Ci was very innocent and shouldn't have to endure Liang Shishi's hostility and embarrassment for his sake.

But Shen Ci smiled gently and didn't care much: "It's okay, she just likes you, and she didn't do anything wrong."

"It's just that I don't have a personality that lets myself be taken advantage of, so if she's polite to me, I'll naturally be polite to her. Conversely, if she makes things difficult for me, I won't just sit and wait for death!"

Gao Zhan looked at her face and could clearly see the starlight jumping in her eyes—confident, transparent, and dashing. Those qualities hidden beneath her beauty were clearly perceived by him at this moment.

He had never thought Shen Ci would be such a special person.

?? Recently traveling in Xinjiang, more than half of the time every day is spent sitting in a car on the road, and the time arriving at the hotel is relatively late, so I can only finish writing one chapter before midnight.

? Another chapter later.
