Chapter 313 The Hardest One to Coax Has Arrived
Jiang Zhouzhou followed silently behind Gu Nanfeng. He remained silent, his shadow elongated in the dim light.
Passing through the alley, you arrive at the main banquet hall, brightly lit, where a cacophony of sounds gradually rises.
"What are you thinking about?"
Gu Nanfeng suddenly stopped and turned to look at the quiet Jiang Zhouzhou.
His expression remained unchanged; he did not show jealousy in front of her like Yin Yue did, nor did he appear as heartbroken as Zhou Xian when he turned to leave.
His calm demeanor made it difficult to guess what was going on in his mind.
Jiang Zhouzhou asked honestly, "What is Brother Nanfeng thinking?"
Gu Nanfeng smiled and said, "I was just thinking that the pastry chef hired by the Han family made some really delicious cakes. I'll bring them to you to try when we get back to the banquet hall."
The unexpected answer made Jiang Zhouzhou stop in her tracks.
At that moment, Gu Nanfeng took a step closer to her, and she heard her barely audible voice, "I thought Brother Nanfeng was angry."
A warm hand landed on her head, and a very soft sigh came from above.
“Zhouzhou, I hope you can pay more attention to your own feelings instead of only thinking about others.”
Gu Nanfeng knew what she was struggling with inside. She was reluctant to hurt this person, but also unwilling to hurt that person. In the end, she exhausted herself both physically and mentally, and fell into deep internal conflict.
"You need to know that your own thoughts are the most important. Caring too much about other people's feelings will make you very tired."
"Liking someone is not a burden. I hope you feel relaxed and happy when you are with me, instead of having to consider my feelings and making yourself unhappy."
So... don't think about anything else.
"Or when you're in my presence, it's enough if you only think about me."
His calm voice seemed to carry warmth, making Jiang Zhouzhou feel a sense of comfort.
She lowered her eyes. Nanfeng said that people should care about their own feelings, but every word he said... always put her feelings first.
My nose feels a little sore. "If that's the case, is Brother Nanfeng very tired?"
The hand that was about to touch her ear paused for a moment before its fingertips gently brushed across her cheek.
In the dim light, the man's profile was outlined in a way that was exceptionally striking, especially his eyes, which were filled with intense emotions that seemed to solidify into ink, silently surging within his dark pupils.
“I’m different from other porridges. The choice is in your hands. I’ll be happy if you choose me. But if you don’t choose me, then I haven’t done enough.”
He didn't want to put pressure on the girl in front of him, after all, those despicable rivals had already given her enough trouble.
Too much pressure makes her prone to escapism.
At this time, he needs to play the most understanding role and guide her through her feelings.
"By the way, weren't you planning to set up a studio? How's the progress?"
Gu Nanfeng suddenly changed the subject.
Jiang Zhouzhou's lips moved slightly, realizing that Brother Nanfeng wanted to use the studio to distract her.
I suggested that instead of worrying about relationship problems, she should focus on her career.
Jiang Zhouzhou nodded: "The materials are ready and waiting for approval. The guild's cooperation has saved me a lot of trouble."
The studio is located at the guild headquarters. Cheng Zhengxun is very capable; he recruited a professional planning team in a short period of time and is waiting for approval before launching a major operation.
However… mentioning the guild, Jiang Zhouzhou’s eyes darted around, and she tentatively asked, “Brother Nanfeng, do you know who our guild owner is?”
As expected, Gu Nanfeng replied, "Yes, I know."
Jiang Zhouzhou: "..."
Seeing that she suddenly stopped talking, Gu Nanfeng saw through her little thoughts at a glance, "Whether he is the guild owner or not does not affect my support for you in the live broadcast room. Even if you are in another guild, it is the same for me."
Moreover, being in Zhou Xian's guild would also save her a lot of trouble.
As her fame grew, she faced a lot of negative comments and slander online, which the guild always had to handle for her.
If it were another guild, they definitely wouldn't have put in this much effort.
Gu Nanfeng: "If you encounter any problems after the studio is set up, remember to let me know."
Investing in intangible cultural heritage is not a simple matter. In addition to the necessary financial expenditure, some places also require dealing with the local government.
They walked and talked until they returned to the main banquet hall.
Jiang Zhouzhou tasted two delicate little cakes, and they were indeed delicious, but she seemed distracted the whole time…
She returned to her apartment after the banquet ended.
She didn't show any surprise when she saw the man squatting alone at the door.
His hair, which was always combed back, was now completely drooping. He hung his head, and the sparse ends of his hair covered his deep eyebrows and eyes. When he saw her return, he suddenly looked up, and a bright light flashed in his almost broken eyes.
"Jiang Zhouzhou, I've been squatting here for an hour, wondering every minute if you'll come back tonight?"
Zhou Xian's voice was a little hoarse, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red.
As she approached him, he grabbed her legs like a large, fierce dog, pressing his head against her body. His soft white wool coat carried the warmth of her body, a comforting touch.
He said sullenly, "I'm afraid you'll really leave with another man, leaving me a homeless dog."
"You promised me you wouldn't leave me, but looking at this tightly closed door, I realize I don't even have the right to go in."
"I can only wait for you to come back, like a homeless dog, all alone and pitiful, while enduring the torment of the possibility of being abandoned by you."
Jiang Zhouzhou listened quietly to his accusations. In his words, she didn't seem like a bad woman who played with emotions, but rather like a bad owner who abandoned her pet.
She raised her hand and gently touched his head.
"Zhou Xian, let me register your fingerprint! You won't have to wait outside anymore."
Zhou Xian: “…”
Is this all he wanted after all that?
When other men get jealous, she patiently coaxes them.
When it was his turn, he was simply asked to provide his fingerprints.
He tightened his grip on her arms slightly, his high nose rubbing against her body through his coat. "Jiang Zhouzhou, I can't be so magnanimous as to see another man kissing your face and pretend nothing happened."
He freed one hand to hold her slender white fingers. "You're good to Gu Nanfeng, and good to another man, but you're so unfair to me... Jiang Zhouzhou, can't you be nicer to me too?"
As Jiang Zhouzhou listened to his incessant complaints, she knew that the most difficult person to appease was about to arrive.
