Union Of Enemies Chapter 22

In the morning Peng Cheng Gui walked into the studio and she saw Gu Jing sat in front of the coffee table. On the coffee table were squashed hot buns and a spoon dug into a bowl of soup nonstop. Half of the bowl of soup splattered onto the coffee table.

‘Why are you a messy eater like a child? Are you done eating? If you are then I’m throwing away the food on the table,’ Peng Cheng Gui said.

‘Um,’ Gu Jing said.

Peng Cheng Gui cleared the coffee table, but she noticed the untouched bowl of congee.

‘Oh? Are you sick? You didn’t touch the bowl of congee,’ Peng Cheng Gui said.

Gu Jing held her spoon and she sat on the sofa dazed.

Peng Cheng Gui stood in front of Gu Jing. ‘What’s wrong? Why do you look lost? What happened?’

Gu Jing saw a shadow in front of her and it broke her daze. ‘Huh? Why are you standing too close to me?’

Peng Cheng Gui sat on the sofa next to Gu Jing. ‘Confess. Did you meet a good man on your blind date yesterday? Is that why you look like you lost your soul?’

‘Yesterday…’ Gu Jing said.

Gu Jing remembered the hot atmosphere in Zhen Lang’s car and she immediately wanted to stop thinking about him.

Gu Jing remembered Zhen Lang’s smile and he whispered shady words in her ear. She felt like his eyes absorbed her soul and she felt like his body wanted to challenge her body.

Gu Jing slammed the coffee table and she laid powerless on the sofa.

Gu Jing knew Zhen Lang’s eyes were seductive since high school, his eyes seduced many young girls back in high school. In college his eyes seduced many young ladies. But yesterday when he smiled and whispered in her ear, she saw his seductive eyes and she forgot to resist. In that moment she thought his eyes were beautiful and she forgot about the preservation of her virginity.

Peng Cheng Gui held Gu Jing’s shoulders and she shook Gu Jing’s shoulders. ‘Um. Hurry up and tell me about your blind date yesterday.’

‘Yesterday…’ Gu Jing said. She fisted her hands. ‘I swear I’m never going on another blind date again!’

‘Then today your acting strange isn’t because of your blind date but because of someone else?’ Peng Cheng Gui asked.

Gu Jing stared at the ceiling and she thought about the question Zhen Lang asked her in his car.

Zhen Lang asked Gu Jing if she wanted to know if he was a virgin then why didn’t she inspect his body herself. She wanted to ask him how she was supposed to inspect his body to see if he was a virgin. Then she thought perhaps he wanted to tell her what was between his legs was fake.

Peng Cheng Gui poked Gu Jing’s forehead with a finger. ‘Gu Jing, are you thinking about a man?’

Gu Jing thought perhaps Zhen Lang was a man so she didn’t deny she was thinking about a man.

Peng Cheng Gui pinched Gu Jing’s cheeks and she smiled. ‘Little Jing, look at me. I want to see if you love him so you need to answer my questions honestly.’

Gu Jing looked into Peng Cheng Gui’s eyes and she felt like she was under hypnotism.

‘Firstly, when you think about him do you feel like your heart is full of sweetness and thinking about him makes you smile?’ Peng Cheng Gui asked.

Gu Jing shivered and she scoffed. ‘Smile? More like cry.’

‘Secondly, when you think about him do you think his smile is beautiful?’ Peng Cheng Gui asked.

Gu Jing swatted Peng Cheng Gui’s fingers away from her face. ‘Beautiful? As if.’

‘Thirdly, when you think about him does your heart melt?’ Peng Cheng Gui asked.

‘Melt?’ Gu Jing asked. She glared at Peng Cheng Gui. ‘I think about killing him. Tell me, does that count as my heart melting?’

‘Fourthly, when you think about him immediately you want him to appear in front of you and if you don’t see him for a while you miss him?’ Peng Cheng Gui asked.

Gu Jing sat upright on the sofa and she slammed the coffee table. She glared at Peng Cheng Gui. ‘I want him to never appear in front of me again. If he appears in front of me and I see him smiling then I will stomp on his smiling face to powder form.’

Peng Cheng Gui sighed. ‘Oh! Are you telling me the man who took away your soul for the whole morning is Zhen Lang?’

Gu Jing leaned her back against the sofa.

Peng Cheng Gui held Gu Jing’s shoulders. ‘You finally toward him-’

‘I finally don’t need to hold back with him,’ Gu Jing said. She jumped off the sofa. She held her waist and she cackled. ‘Did you know I finally repaid what I owe him? From now on if he provokes me I don’t need to hold back anymore.’

Peng Cheng Gui sighed and the excitement in her eyes disappeared. She turned her head away from Gu Jing, but her ears couldn’t escape Gu Jing’s cackle.

Peng Cheng Gui knew it was dangerous to be too hopeful otherwise she would be frustrated to death, and her future husband would be a pitiful young widower.

Gu Jing happily kicked and punched mid-air.

Peng Cheng Gui knocked on the coffee table. ‘Wait! What did you say to me a while ago? Didn’t you say you wanted to go on blind dates because you wanted bigger b.r.e.a.s.t.s?’

Gu Jing nodded her head. ‘Um.’ She looked down at her flat chest and she sighed. ‘If I’m not going to go on blind dates anymore then what am I going to do about my chest?’

‘You actually went on blind dates because you wanted bigger b.r.e.a.s.t.s? After you have bigger b.r.e.a.s.t.s you want to flaunt your big b.r.e.a.s.t.s in front of Zhen Lang?’ Peng Cheng Gui asked.

‘Um,’ Gu Jing said.

‘Are you certain a twenty-five year old woman’s b.r.e.a.s.t.s will grow bigger?’ Peng Cheng Gui asked. She scoffed. ‘At your age unless you undergo plastic surgery for breast implants then your b.r.e.a.s.t.s won’t be bigger.’

‘Is that true?’ Gu Jing asked.

‘Of course! You’re a woman living in the modern era and you went to college too. How is it possible you didn’t know about human body growth and you didn’t think about plastic surgery options?’ Peng Cheng Gui said.

Gu Jing’s hands swept down from her flat neck and pa.s.sed her flat chest. ‘So even if my b.r.e.a.s.t.s naturally grows a little bigger it won’t be enough… and Zhen Lang will mock me for the rest of my life, right?’

Peng Cheng Gui sighed. ‘Are you certain he will mock you?’

Gu Jing nodded her head and she gritted her teeth. ‘Not only does he mock my flat chest, yesterday he also said I’m a virgin no one wants!’

Gu Jing thought about Zhen Lang’s strange smile in his car for a whole night and day and she realised his strange smile meant he was mocking her that no one would want to marry her.

‘Cheng Cheng, I’ve made a decision,’ Gu Jing said. She looked out a window then she looked down at her flat chest. The sunlight shone through the window and through her flat chest. ‘I want breast implants!’

Peng Cheng Gui fell onto the floor and her head hit the sofa. ‘Why are you speaking crazy nonsense?’

‘Cheng Cheng, each person has something they are determined to achieve. He always mocks my flat chest. I need to show him my chest won’t be flat for the rest of my life,’ Gu Jing said.

Peng Cheng Gui opened her mouth wide and she couldn’t believe Gu Jing’s words.

Peng Cheng Gui knew Gu Jing didn’t honestly answer her questions before. But she wanted to ask Gu Jing a fifth question – ‘Are you this crazy because Zhen Lang said something careless to you and you took it to heart?’

Peng Cheng Gui didn’t ask her fifth question because she knew the real answer.

Peng Cheng Gui thought Gu Jing wasn’t the only crazy person in the studio. Gu Jing’s prince Zhen Lang who she used to think was a sane person, decided to appear in front of the crazy Gu Jing.

Peng Cheng Gui looked at the clock on the wall, it was ten in the morning. She turned her head around and she looked at Zhen Lang. ‘You’re here early. Don’t you have anything to do at the hospital?’

Zhen Lang glanced at Gu Jing. She flew to him and she looked into his eyes. ‘Don’t a.s.sume I don’t know what you’re thinking. I won’t give you an opportunity to mock me.’

Gu Jing fixed her fringe to cover the bruise on her forehead and she strode out of the studio.

Peng Cheng Gui watched Gu Jing left the studio then she looked at Zhen Lang and she smiled sweetly. ‘Are you in a mood to talk about a business transaction?’

Outside the studio Gu Jing crazily searched for the best plastic surgery practice in the city and she booked a breast enhancement consultation with one of the best plastic surgeons in the city.
