Chapter 2285 - You Have an Ambition
Chapter 2285: You Have an Ambition
“Come on, can’t you see they are on a date? You’ll be the third wheel.” Han Chenglin rolled his eyes at Chu Peihan.
In order to get rid of him, Chu Peihan went to interrupt Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting’s date. Was he that hateful? He was a handsome young man, couldn’t Chu Peihan see that?
Actually, precisely because Chu Peihan had a different attitude to him, he was attracted to her. If Chu Peihan easily lost herself in his handsome face and aspired to be his girlfriend, he would stay away from her.
When Han Chenglin saw Leng Shaoting, he was greatly surprised. He knew Leng Shaoting, but wasn’t sure whether Leng Shaoting knew him.
He got to know Leng Shaoting by coincidence and learned about Leng Shaoting’s family background.
Even though he recognized Leng Shaoting, Leng Shaoting didn’t know him, so he said nothing. Otherwise, it would be strange. However, Han Chenglin still didn’t forget his manners and gave Leng Shaoting a friendly nod.
Leng Shaoting stayed cold, but it didn’t mean that he was rude to other people, so he also nodded at Han Chenglin in acknowledgment. Strangers who didn’t know him might think he was arrogant.
Han Chenglin had heard about Leng Shaoting’s character, so he didn’t think his expressionless face meant arrogance. And even if Leng Shaoting was really arrogant, his status allowed him to be.
“Um…”
Chu Peihan finally realized that she just bothered Gu Ning when she tried to get rid of Han Chenglin.
“It’s fine. He can also join us. It’s not a big deal,” said Gu Ning. She was talking about Han Chenglin.
Gu Ning wasn’t helping Han Chenglin. She simply felt that it wasn’t right to chase Han Chenglin away. She was reluctant to do that, and also wanted to stop Chu Peihan from doing that.
She did that mainly because Han Chenglin was kind to Chu Peihan and he wasn’t hateful.
“Ningning.” Chu Peihan couldn’t believe her ears. How could Gu Ning say that?
However, she didn’t think it was a bad idea. In fact, she had already stopped pushing Han Chenglin away, but she just couldn’t help arguing with him.
Han Chenglin’s face lit up when he heard Gu Ning’s reply. He knew that Gu Ning wasn’t really helping him. She simply felt it wasn’t right to chase him away.
Anyway, it was exactly what he wanted.
Since Gu Ning said that, Chu Peihan didn’t insist. Most importantly, she didn’t really mean to chase Han Chenglin away.
“Alright.” Gu Ning patted Chu Peihan’s hand to comfort her. She could see that Chu Peihan didn’t hate Han Chenglin as much as she seemed to. If she really hated Han Chenglin, she would have beaten Han Chenglin up and wouldn’t give him the chance to argue with her.
Due to Gu Ning’s involvement, Chu Peihan said nothing. She just gave Han Chenglin a glare to show her dissatisfaction.
Han Chenglin shrugged. Actually, he had never been so persistent before!
When they were walking around, Gu Ning introduced Leng Shaoting and Han Chenglin to each other.
Because Han Chenglin pretended that he didn’t know Leng Shaoting, he acted as if this was their first meeting when Gu Ning did the introduction.
After that, Chu Peihan and Han Chenglin joined Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting along the way. The four of them were very pretty, so they attracted a lot of attention.
Gu Ning and Han Chenglin had great fame, so they were unavoidably recognized by other people.
People who recognized them only greeted them and took some photos of them. However, they didn’t stop them and ask to take photos with them. They actually wanted to, but didn’t dare to. Leng Shaoting had an air of authority, so other people didn’t dare to approach him.
“Jesus, I didn’t expect to meet Goddess Gu here. I’m so lucky today.”
“Right, the man next to her should be her boyfriend, right? He’s so handsome and tall, but looks a little cold.”
“He’s simply very proud. I think he should be very gentle to Goddess Gu.”
“You’re right.”
“Oh, look, it’s Han Chenglin! He’s very good-looking too.”
“I think the other man in their group is more handsome than him.”
“Anyway, I still prefer Han Chenglin. He’s my dream guy.”
“Is he Goddess Gu’s friend?”
“It’s not surprising. Although Han Chenglin is just a star and isn’t very popular yet, his family is very rich.”
“I’ve heard of it. Is his family the famous Han family?”
“I believe so.”
“…”
Hearing their discussion, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning felt nothing, while Han Chenglin was a little awkward. He admitted that he wasn’t as handsome as Leng Shaoting, but it was embarrassing when other people made that judgment publicly.
“Oh, I’m surprised by your family background.” Chu Peihan said to Han Chenglin in astonishment.
Even though Han Chenglin’s family was very rich, she didn’t change her attitude towards him. Leng Shaoting’s family was much more influential than Han Chenglin’s, so Chu Peihan stayed calm.
However, hearing Chu Peihan’s words, Han Chenglin was displeased. “It’s not important. It’s my parents’ wealth, not mine. I’ll build a career by myself.”
He never wanted to rely on his family to become successful. He hoped that he could gain success on his own.
“Great, you have an ambition.” Chu Peihan approved of Han Chenglin’s ambition, so she complimented him.
When Chu Peihan complimented him, Han Chenglin felt quite pleased. Anyway, he was indeed very ambitious. After graduating from university, he stopped asking his parents for money. He began to spend his own money which he earned by himself.
Although he had a lot of help due to his family background, he had the ability and he won approval from the audience through his own abilities instead of his family background.
…
People didn’t stop talking about them.
“Is that girl Han Chenglin’s girlfriend?”
They were talking about Chu Peihan. Because Gu Ning walked with Leng Shaoting, while Chu Peihan walked with Han Chenglin, they looked like two couples.
Chu Peihan wanted to talk with Gu Ning, but Leng Shaoting was by Gu Ning’s side. So she felt a little timid and didn’t dare to bother Gu Ning. She had to walk with Han Chenglin.
Upon hearing that, Han Chenglin put on a vague smile, but Chu Peihan frowned.
“I don’t think so. Han Chenglin just started a career, he can’t have a girlfriend.”
“Right, I agree with you.”
“…”
After they were gone, Chu Peihan complained. “Do a girl and boy have to be a couple when they walk together?”
