4746 Never Too Late to Love (153)
“Enough already.” Gu Chengze was about to die of laughter at Yueyao’s obsequious look. “Which hotel are you staying at?”

“Hilton.”

“When are you going back?” As soon as Gu Chengze finished speaking, Bai Sheng suggested, “Why don’t we have dinner together later?”

Mu Yueyao hurriedly shook her head. “Forget it, it’s fine.”

“Come on!”

“Aiya, I have to be at the airport for a pick up later!”

“Pick-up!?” Bai Sheng looked at Gu Chengze blankly and was confused. “This… what does this mean?”

Gu Chengze said, “She has something on later. I’ll treat you and Jing Yang to dinner tomorrow!”

“Okay, alright.” Mu Yueyao quickly retreated.

Bai Sheng looked at her back view with a curious expression and asked, “What’s going on? She seems to be very shy.”

Gu Chengze appeared a little embarrassed. “Yes… because I really never had a chance to inform her that I got married.”

“It was indeed done in a hurry! Moreover, wasn’t our marriage considered a secret initially? I didn’t tell my friends and colleagues. So you wouldn’t expect your friends to know about it. You don’t have to look so guilty about it.”

Gu Chengze broke into a smile. Suddenly, he looked at her mysteriously, with some playfulness in his eyes. “Your reaction just then seemed quite strange.”

“Strange? In what ways?”

Bai Sheng felt inexplicably guilty as he looked at her intently.

Gu Chengze’s gaze deepened. He lowered his head and asked in a voice that only she could hear, “That look in your eyes when you saw me hugging another girl… it seemed like you were jealous?”

“I…” Bai Sheng was so taken aback that she almost bit her own tongue. She stuttered, “I… I wasn’t jealous! It’s just… I was just a little surprised!”

“Is it so difficult to admit that you were jealous?” Gu Chengze pinched her nose lovingly. “Tell me, were you jealous?”

“…” Bai Sheng held her breath and puffed up her face. This feeling of being busted was really embarrassing! She never wanted to be a petty wife. However, when she saw her husband hugging an unfamiliar girl, her first reaction was indeed not to find out who that girl was, but to be jealous! She just found the scene to be an eyesore.

Like a child who had made a mistake, Bai Sheng lowered her head silently and said, “Would you be upset… if I was jealous?”

Gu Chengze raised his eyebrows. “Why would I? I’d be very happy if you were jealous.”

“Why?”

“Because… I’d think that you must care about me very much, to be jealous.” As Gu Chengze spoke, he gently kissed her cheek. “Sometimes, I wish you’d be more petty.”

Bai Sheng turned even redder when she heard this. She pursed her lips and finally admitted, “I was a little jealous just then. It sort of stung…”

“Hahaha!” Gu Chengze suddenly chuckled. His voice was especially pleasant, clear as untainted spring water.
Bai Sheng’s face started to burn.

Vaguely, she could hear him asking, “Have you found the eye shadow you want?”

“Yes… here’s the ticket…” Bai Sheng lowered her head and passed the slip of paper to him.

The man said to her, “Wait for me here. I’ll foot the bill.”

“Okay.” Bai Sheng kept her head lowered as she secretly sized up Gu Chengze’s back view, feeling her affections growing within.
