Chapter 2098: I knew you were waiting for me on purpose

nting swept her gaze over the crowd and began her introduction, “This is our new assistant, Zheng Mengyao. She will be working with Xu Xiaoxiao to share the responsibilities of the design department.”...Hou Shao couldn't figure out why Gu Liechen would do this.

Was he setting everything up to recreate the past, or was he trying to make her remember it

Gu Liechen looked at her with his lowered eyes, and in a low voice, he said, "We're here to spend a day off."

After a few seconds of silence, Hou Shao nodded her head. "Okay."

Since he said he was here on vacation, she might as well enjoy it. It seemed like it had been a while since she'd truly relaxed and rested, being confined to the room by Gu Liechen; she didn't consider that restful at all.

Hou Shao walked to the table and stretched out her hand, gently touching the surface. The tabletop was smooth and round. She pulled over a chair and sat down.

She propped her cheek up with one hand, her eyes fixed on Gu Liechen as she inquired curiously, "Since it's a vacation, what are we going to do next"

Gu Liechen casually pulled over a chair beside him and sat down, his dark eyes fixed on her as he smiled and asked, "Do you still remember the scene when we first met"

When asked, Young Master Hou was slightly taken aback, his eyes flickering about.

Gu Liechen looked at her, his handsome face a little lost, "Forgot"

"Listening to the receding waves, lying on the beach, watching the stars, eating barbecue." Hou Shao slowly recalled, that was their first meeting place, that night was deep and beautiful, how could she easily forget it

"Yes." Gu Liechen nodded with satisfaction and continued, "I remember you were wearing a chiffon half-skirt back then, the skirt was very long, you couldn't see your feet. When the sea breeze blew, the gauze floated gracefully behind you. You had a woven brown straw hat on, which accidentally fell off and I picked it up for you."

Gu Liechen recalled the first time he met Hou Shao, the scene was deeply imprinted in his mind, described clearly.

Hou Shao thought about the scene at the time, she didn't say anything.

That place held the most beautiful moment when he and she met, but it was also a carefully designed plot that she had devised to meet him.

Including her long dress, including her brown-yellow straw hat, only the wind was an accident, their first conversation also an accident.

"I know you were waiting for me on purpose that time," Gu Liechen chuckled wryly, his voice low.

At that time, his first encounter with Young Master Hou was unplanned. He had no idea that everything was carefully orchestrated.

By the time he regained consciousness, Hou Shao had already left him, vanished from his world.

He used a lot of connections to inquire about Hou Shao's whereabouts, and the truth gradually surfaced.

If he hadn't fallen for her that time, perhaps they would have chosen a different path, and perhaps Hou Shao would have been replaced by another girl.

Fortunately, he fell for her and they spent a beautiful time together.

Although for a period of time afterward, Gu Liezhen truly hated her, he couldn't help but admit that the image Hou Shao left in his heart was something he couldn't shake off no matter what.

When the thought of seeing her became greater than his hatred, Gu Liechen knew he had fallen in love with her.

This woman, who he both loved and hated, her feelings for him remained complex even now.

He was very eager to investigate the organization behind her, but he knew all too well that once he came face-to-face with this woman, they would both inevitably fall into a different kind of state.

Before that, at least, he wanted to spend another wonderful night with her, to be together without any extra thoughts.e's been staring at them for these few days.""Huh" Su Han opened his mouth in surprise, a little disbelief clouding his face."He has been working diligently for the past few years, so why did he sudde...
