Boss Mo's Predestined Love Brought by Surrogacy Chapter 709 - Hope is rekindled

Chapter 709 Hope is rekindled

“All right, don’t think about it. I’ll handle it.”

Qi Changfeng did not know how to console Gu Manman, but instead of comforting her and making her feel that she had really failed, he chose to help her solve the problem and get through this crisis.

“How can you handle it?”

Gu Manman did not believe his words. This was not something that Qi Changfeng could help with just because he wanted to. Although she knew that he had always played an omnipotent role since they were kids, this matter was not an external one but a problem in her heart. She knew that Qi Changfeng wanted to help her, but how could he make it work?

She was very grateful for his kindness, but deep down, she did not believe that he could handle this sort of matter, which he obviously was not familiar with. When it came to designing, he was totally an amateur, so how could he help her?

She felt suspicious in her heart, and she did not hesitate to express her doubts. However, as soon as she said it, she felt that the meaning of her words did not sound like what she wanted to express. Qi Changfeng kindly wanted to help her, but she sounded like she did not appreciate it and suspected him instead. Gu Manman regretted it a little right after she said that, but there was no way for her to take back her words.

“I have my own way. You don’t need to worry about it. You just need to trust me.”

Qi Changfeng just smiled and kept Gu Manman guessing. He didn’t explain too much to her because he knew that with her character, she would definitely say no if she knew what his plan was. He wouldn’t watch her miss such a good opportunity and knew that Gu Yan was talented and capable, who could guide Gu Manman.

Therefore, Qi Changfeng didn’t think much about the meaning behind Gu Manman’s words at all. He was her omnipotent cousin, and there was nothing he couldn’t do. He believed that all Gu Manman needed to do was to wait patiently.

“Humph, forget it if you don’t want to say it.”

Gu Manman’s hope was rekindled in her heart. Seeing Qi Changfeng’s confident look, Gu Manman was quite relieved, but she still felt a little uncertain. However, at this time, she had no better idea. If he had a solution, she just had to wait according to his plan.

“Why did you refuse to ask Gu Yan for help? No matter what, she is considered one of the best in the industry. Why didn’t you ask your boss to help handle your problem?”

Qi Changfeng still wanted to test Gu Manman. He did not know what he should do if Gu Manman refused to cooperate when Gu Yan agreed to help him.

“I don’t want to. Wouldn’t asking her for help mean that I’ve admitted defeat? I don’t want to lower my head before her.”

Gu Manman could not help feeling resistant at the thought of Gu Yan. If she went to her now, wouldn’t that mean that she had lost? If Jiang Jingcheng found out about it, what would he think of her? Gu Manman did not want to give him another reason to look down on her.

Qi Changfeng was speechless when he heard Gu Manman’s childish reply. “That could be considered a reason?” he questioned it in his heart.

However, looking at Gu Manman’s relieved look, Qi Changfeng didn’t want to say anything more. He thought that although Gu Manman didn’t want to ask Gu Yan for help, he could go to Gu Yan himself. “This stubborn girl clearly wants to ask her for help, but she refused to yield,” he thought.

Qi Changfeng was not as relieved as Gu Manman. He had more things on his mind than hers.

However, would Gu Yan help him? Qi Changfeng felt quite uncertain about that. Although this matter was related to her business, it could also be considered his personal matter from a certain point of view.

Since it was his personal matter, Gu Yan was not obliged to help him. However, Qi Changfeng knew her character and considered that she would repay his kindness. When Mo Yichen was in trouble, he helped the couple, and Gu Yan must have definitely remembered it.

Qi Changfeng had helped Mo Yichen not just because of Gu Yan, but also because of his brotherly relationship with Mo Yichen. Even if it were not for Gu Yan, Qi Changfeng still would have helped him out a great deal. But at the same time, Qi Changfeng was very clear that Gu Yan would definitely find an opportunity to repay him.

Just like before, he helped Gu Yan with her business. So, no matter how much she disliked the idea of pulling strings, she still allowed Gu Manman to enter her studio. Even though she was very dissatisfied in her heart, she chose to turn a blind eye to it. If it weren’t for Gu Manman’s disappointing performance, Gu Yan wouldn’t have brought this matter up in the public.

Furthermore, since Qi Changfeng had helped Mo Yichen before, it could be counted as a huge favor. Qi Changfeng knew that Gu Yan would definitely find an opportunity to repay him, and this matter now would be a good chance for her to return his favor.

Qi Changfeng felt some bitterness inside. It was precisely because Gu Yan had handled everything so seriously that it proved the relationship between her and Qi Changfeng was clear. Each time, she would draw a clear line between them. What she did expanded the s.p.a.ces between the two of them.

The s.p.a.ces were huge and there was a clear distinction between them that made Qi Changfeng feel heartbroken.

Thinking of these things and the cause and effect within, Qi Changfeng’s interest suddenly faded. He checked the time on his mobile phone, and found that it was almost the time for him to leave. Now he felt that Gu Manman’s problem was within his control, so he didn’t want to hear her cry about it anymore.

However, Gu Manman had drunk several gla.s.ses of wine after all, and he would never leave her here alone. So Qi Changfeng called the waiter to pay the bill, but Gu Manman was still drunk and refused to leave. He widened his eyes and glared at her. Seeing him like this, she had no choice but to quiet down and listen to him.

Gu Manman hung her head like a little kid who had done something wrong and followed Qi Changfeng obediently. When he saw her like this, the sadness in his heart dissipated a lot. What was the point of thinking so much? If he could help Gu Manman with his plan, it would be enough, wouldn’t it?

As for whether or not Gu Yan wanted to draw a clear line between herself and Qi Changfeng, that was another matter, which was not within his scope of consideration.

Qi Changfeng sent Gu Manman home. Although his auntie did not express her displeasure, Qi Changfeng himself felt a little guilty. How many times had he sent Gu Manman home after she had drunk? If this happened a few times more, his auntie would probably stop him from entering her house.

It was all Manman’s fault. Although Qi Changfeng said that and blamed her, but in his heart, he didn’t really mean to blame her. Qi Changfeng just felt sorry for Gu Manman. Although he knew that she used to like to drink and go out to play, it was a different matter.

Although at that time, Gu Manman was better at causing trouble than now and always liked to ask him to deal with the aftermath for her, at least she was happy then. Qi Changfeng liked her better when she was simple-minded and high-spirited.

Although Manman was much more sensible than before, there was a price to pay for being sensible. She had fewer and fewer smiles on her face, and the troubles she caused became less and less. However, Qi Changfeng was not happy to see Manman like this.

He did not know if his decision to make Gu Manman pursue Jiang Jingcheng relentlessly was right or wrong. If it was right, then why was she still unhappy?

But if it was wrong…
