Chapter 110: Are You Unloved?

The group entered the private room and began to take their seats one after another, all of them instinctively keeping their distance from Gu Tingyan; his aura was simply too overwhelming.

Eating with President Gu was too stressful; no one dared to pick up any food.

Everyone knew that Gu Tingyan and Chu Sheng were in an ambiguous relationship and that they might be boyfriend and girlfriend, so they subconsciously left the main seats for the two of them and eagerly helped them find their places.

Chu Sheng looked at Qin Shu with a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes, her face beaming; she loved it when others flattered her like this.

Especially after Gu Tingyan arrived, the crew members were even more cautious about how they treated Chu Sheng, terrified that offending her would lead to trouble.

Facing Chu Sheng's provocation, the expression on Qin Shu's face remained faint; she simply found a random seat to sit down as soon as she entered, far away from Gu Tingyan and Chu Sheng.

Gu Tingyan swept a faint glance at Qin Shu without a word, then sat next to Director Chen, chatting and laughing.

To his left was Director Chen, and to his right was an empty seat that no one dared to take.

Everyone tacitly assumed that the seat beside Gu Tingyan was reserved for Chu Sheng.

After all, Chu Sheng was the girlfriend at the very tip of President Gu's heart, as well as his "white moonlight" from their school days.

Chu Sheng clicked her high heels and walked toward the seat beside Gu Tingyan with her head held high.

She had been fuming after seeing the news online, and the gloom of the entire day finally dissipated at this moment.

Wearing a high-fashion dress and carrying a handbag worth hundreds of thousands, Chu Sheng sat down beside Gu Tingyan with grace.

Once the dishes were ordered, there was a lull while waiting for the food.

After Chu Sheng sat down, Gu Tingyan glanced at Qin Shu out of the corner of his eye; she was looking down at her phone, her face devoid of expression.

No jealousy, no anger.

She appeared completely indifferent.

Gu Tingyan's expression faltered, and his gaze turned a bit more distant as he turned his head to talk to Director Chen about entertainment industry projects, investment returns, and the subsequent selection of advertisers and collaborations.

The dishes were all served.

Chu Sheng naturally took the bowl from Gu Tingyan's hand to serve him soup, her voice gentle and delicate, appearing every bit the virtuous woman.

"You love this pork rib and corn soup the most; let me serve you a bowl."

Chu Sheng smiled as she served him a bowl of soup and placed it in front of him on the table.

Su Tuantuan was furious and fired off a message to Qin Shu: "Damn, this dead green tea is truly shameless."

"Seduced your husband right in front of you."

"It makes me so mad; no wonder she's the daughter of a mistress, she loves being a mistress too!"

Qin Shu: "Don't be angry, it's not worth it."

Seeing the interaction between the two, the group in the private room immediately pricked up their ears.

They hadn't expected that Gu Tingyan, this diamond bachelor, had truly been captured by Chu Sheng; the relationship between the two was far from ordinary.

Gu Tingyan looked at the bowl of soup on the table with a faint gaze, then looked up and swept a casual glance in Qin Shu's direction.

Qin Shu happened to look up and meet his eyes, but she quickly looked away.

She didn't care at all who Gu Tingyan slept with or how many women he had outside.

When the heart is dead, this is likely what it feels like.

No matter how much she had loved him before, she now found him just as disgusting.

Qin Shu wished Chu Sheng would lure Gu Tingyan away, preferably so infatuated and bewitched by her that he would never think of Qin Shu again for the rest of his life.

Qin Shu might even have to thank her for snatching Gu Tingyan away.

The woman's gaze was very indifferent, with not a shred of her former love in her eyes, not even hatred.

She was as calm as if Gu Tingyan were a complete stranger to her.

A dense, prickling pain surged in Gu Tingyan's heart; it felt as if a large hole had been torn open in his chest, and cold wind howled through it, making his whole body tremble with chill.

Qin Shu no longer cared about him.

A self-deprecating, half-smile curled the corners of Gu Tingyan's mouth, and a sense of powerlessness rose within him for no reason.

This was what he had originally hoped for—hoping that Qin Shu could forget the past and not hate him too much.

That the two could reconcile.

But when Qin Shu truly stopped hating him, he felt panicked instead.

Not hating meant not loving anymore.

In her eyes, he, Gu Tingyan, had no weight at all; whoever he slept with probably wouldn't stir even the slightest emotion in Qin Shu right now.

At the thought of this outcome, Gu Tingyan felt a slight suffocation, and his heart ached intensely.

Xie Jin sat next to Qin Shu and saw their exchange, his eyes darkening slightly.

He was all too familiar with the way Gu Tingyan looked at Qin Shu; that was the look a man should only have for a woman.

Xie Jin reached out and tugged at Qin Shu's hand, handing her something; Qin Shu took it and looked down: "For me?"

There was a piece of chocolate in Qin Shu's palm.

Xie Jin nodded: "This brand of chocolate is quite good; my second uncle brought it, try some."

Qin Shu peeled off the chocolate wrapper, ate a small piece, and gave a small piece to Su Tuantuan.

"It really is good."

Su Tuantuan tasted it and praised it sincerely; she looked at Xie Jin, her eyes flickering slightly.

When it came to matters of the heart, she was much more sensitive than Qin Shu; she could sense that Xie Jin liked Qin Shu.

If Huahua divorced, she felt that if these two were together, they would definitely be very happy.

While eating, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Chu Sheng kept serving food to Gu Tingyan as if to deliberately provoke Qin Shu.

And Gu Tingyan did not refuse.

Su Tuantuan was furious; she had never seen such a shameless mistress.

Su Tuantuan looked at Xie Jin with a bright smile: "Xie Jin, my Huahua likes braised pork; could you pick a piece for her?"

Qin Shu paused, feeling that Su Tuantuan was holding back a big move.

Xie Jin raised an eyebrow, picked up the serving chopsticks, and placed a piece of braised pork into Qin Shu's bowl.

The man was also very savvy; without needing Su Tuantuan to instruct him further, he served dishes to Qin Shu one after another, appearing gentle and considerate.

Xie Jin was handsome and had a mysterious background; having been in the entertainment industry for so long, the paparazzi had not dug up even a shred of his background, and once Director Chen's movie was released, he became a well-deserved top-tier star and superstar.

To have such a person serving you dishes was indeed very prestigious.

Chu Sheng had once tried to show favor to Xie Jin, but Xie Jin ignored her entirely, being indifferent and cold in his attitude.

She said that because she was beautiful and had a good family background, there was no man who wouldn't pay attention to her.

So it turned out he had taken a fancy to this little bitch, Qin Shu.

Chu Sheng looked at Gu Tingyan's dark, gloomy face, curled her lips into a faint smile, and looked at Xie Jin: "Xie Jin, do you like Qin Shu?"

"I feel like you treat Qin Shu very differently, unlike how you treat the rest of us."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people at the table fell silent.

Director Chen looked up and gave Chu Sheng a bland, indifferent glance.

Gu Tingyan's expression also turned cold abruptly, and he looked toward the two of them.

Hearing these manipulative, tea-like words—he had seen plenty of such women back at the Nangong Family—Xie Jin raised an eyebrow faintly: "Isn't it very normal to like her?"

As soon as this was said, everyone at the table gasped; Xie Jin's manager nearly exploded, as this was his career's rising period, and if this got out, it would be a disaster.

Xie Jin made a sharp turn and smiled faintly: "I see that President Gu and Director Chen also like her very much."

Everyone: "........."

He cast a cold glance at Chu Sheng: "What? Is no one loving you? Are you looking for attention everywhere?"
