Chapter 198 Adding fuel to the flames
Since Gu Fanxing has decided to use Gu Qingyue to deal a fatal blow to Jiang Chengjun, Fang Wenwen and Jiang Xue, the next step is to add fuel to the fire for Gu Qingyue.
In the cozy coffee shop in the center of the bustling city, the air is filled with the rich aroma of coffee, and soft music flows like a gurgling stream in every corner. People's laughter and joy are intertwined in it, creating a lively and comfortable atmosphere.
Gu Fanxing was wearing a simple and elegant white dress and sitting by the window.
She seemed to be concentrating on flipping through the magazine in her hand, but in fact, her eyes always inadvertently swept towards the entrance of the cafe, like a cheetah waiting for prey, quietly waiting for Gu Qingyue to appear.
Soon, Gu Qingyue appeared at the door, with a hint of melancholy and fatigue in her eyes.
The failure of her plot against Fang Wenwen some time ago caused her to turn from love to hate for Jiang Chengjun, and the shadow of the past has not yet dissipated. At this moment, she is in an extremely gloomy mood.
When Gu Fanxing saw Gu Qingyue walk into the cafe, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing an imperceptible smile. She put down the magazine, stood up and greeted her enthusiastically: "Qingyue, what a coincidence!" Her voice was full of surprise.
Gu Qingyue turned around when she heard the voice and saw that it was Gu Fanxing. A hint of surprise and indifference flashed in her eyes: "Sister Fanxing, you are here too."
Gu Fanxing walked over and wanted to hold Gu Qingyue's hand, but Gu Qingyue avoided him calmly.
Gu Fanxing was not embarrassed and continued to smile and said, "Long time no see, how have you been lately?"
Her eyes seemed full of concern, but in her mind she was quickly calculating how to make Gu Qingyue fall into the emotional trap she had set.
Gu Qingyue frowned slightly and said in a cold tone: "I'm fine, is there anything wrong, Sister Fanxing?" She didn't want to have too much entanglement with Gu Fanxing, she just wanted to leave this atmosphere that made her a little bored as soon as possible.
Gu Fanxing smiled gently, but a hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes: "I've been really annoyed lately. You know, Jiang Chengjun and I should have been very sweet together, but now..."
She deliberately hesitated to speak and secretly observed Gu Qingyue's expression.
Gu Qingyue's heart moved, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised an imperceptible arc, which was an expression of gloating, but she quickly concealed it: "What's wrong? Did you quarrel?"
Gu Fanxing sighed deeply: "We haven't quarreled, but he has been particularly cold to me recently. In the past, he always made time to accompany me, and would send me messages and call me no matter how busy he was. But now? I often don't see him for several days, and he takes a long time to reply to my messages, and sometimes he doesn't even reply."
She frowned and looked aggrieved.
Gu Qingyue was secretly happy in her heart, but pretended to be indifferent on the surface and said: "Maybe he is really too busy recently. There are so many things going on in the Jiang Group, he must be under a lot of pressure."
Gu Fanxing smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Busy? So busy that he doesn't even have time to spend with me? It's not like I don't understand that he's busy with work, but this change is too big. Besides, I always feel like he's deliberately avoiding me."
Gu Qingyue's eyes flashed with curiosity, but more of it was indifference: "Is he avoiding you on purpose? Why? Sister Fanxing, are you overthinking it?"
Gu Fanxing bit her lip and said, "I also hope that I am overthinking it. But there were a few times when I had made an appointment to meet him, but he canceled it due to something unexpected. But I later found out that he didn't have any work that he had to go to, but was with a woman."
Gu Qingyue sneered in her heart. She was almost certain that the woman was Fang Wenwen, but she didn't want Gu Fanxing to see her thoughts: "With a woman? Who?"
Gu Fanxing's eyes flashed with anger: "I didn't see clearly, I just know that she was a woman with a good figure and dressed very fashionably. They were talking and laughing in the car at the time, the speed was too fast, and it was a bit far away, so I couldn't see clearly.
Gu Qingyue clenched her fists, and her hatred for Jiang Chengjun and Fang Wenwen deepened. But she said calmly, "Sister Fanxing, have you tried to talk to him? Ask him what's going on."
Gu Fanxing shrugged helplessly: "Talk? He doesn't give me a chance at all. Every time I want to have a good chat with him, he avoids me with the excuse of having something else to do. I really doubt now whether he is tired of me or has other intentions."
Gu Qingyue's anger was burning in her heart. She wanted to question Jiang Chengjun and Fang Wenwen immediately, but she held back and said coldly: "Sister Fanxing, don't be too anxious. Maybe there really is some misunderstanding. You can observe it for a while."
Gu Fanxing nodded slightly: "Well, I also hope it's a misunderstanding. But this feeling is really bad. I feel like a fool, being kept in the dark by him. And, you know what? I keep hearing some rumors recently, saying that he is very close to a certain woman and their relationship is very unusual. I really don't know what to do."
Gu Qingyue felt a little happy about what happened to Gu Fanxing, because Gu Fanxing also experienced the feeling of being hurt. "Sister Fanxing, you have to make your own decision on this matter. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, she left the cafe without looking back.
Gu Qingyue was walking on the street, the hatred in her heart towards Jiang Chengjun and Fang Wenwen surging like a raging tide.
She thought of her past love for Jiang Chengjun, the pain of having a wholehearted crush on him that was not reciprocated, and her eyes became even colder.
Because her secret love is bitter.
In Jiang Chengjun's eyes, Gu Qingyue might just be one of the many people he had met. They had never even had a real conversation, let alone physical contact, as if they were strangers.
But the appearance of Fang Wenwen made Gu Qingyue's already difficult secret love even more painful.
One day, Gu Qingyue unconsciously caught a glimpse of a different kind of light in Fang Wenwen's eyes as she stared at Jiang Chengjun. It was an undisguised interest and admiration, even filled with a vague ambiguity.
Jiang Chengjun also did not hide his passion for Fang Wenwen. The two chatted enthusiastically and were inseparable.
Gu Qingyue watched from the side, and her heart felt like it was hit hard. An emotion called jealousy began to spread in her heart.
In the following days, Fang Wenwen always showed her charm to the fullest, skillfully surrounding Jiang Chengjun, talking to him in her sickly sweet voice, throwing him a wink from time to time, like a couple in love, her behavior was full of ambiguity.
Fang Wenwen is like a lingering ghost, appearing in Jiang Chengjun's life at will.
Gu Qingyue could only watch silently in the corner. She felt like a person forgotten by the world, and Fang Wenwen was the one who took away all her light.
Every time Jiang Chengjun was present, Fang Wenwen would always appear in various gorgeous poses, making Jiang Chengjun completely fascinated.
As time went by, the relationship between Fang Wenwen and Jiang Chengjun seemed to be getting closer and closer, and all kinds of rumors also reached Gu Qingyue's ears.
Some people said that they saw them coming out of a club together late at night, and some said that they were discussing something secretly. Every rumor was like a knife, stabbing Gu Qingyue's fragile and sensitive heart.
Jiang Chengjun's preference for Fang Wenwen made her anger and hatred towards the two of them penetrate deep into her bones.
Gu Fanxing looked at Gu Qingyue's departing back, with a slight smile on her lips. She knew that Gu Qingyue was already filled with anger and hatred, and she would become the sharpest knife in her revenge plan.
Gu Fanxing is like a behind-the-scenes manipulator, taking advantage of Gu Qingyue's emotions and leading her step by step into the trap he has set, waiting for the right opportunity to deal a fatal blow to Jiang Chengjun, Fang Wenwen and Jiang Xue.
