Chapter 1767: Chapter 640: White Moonlight VS Substitute (Part 5)

"Childish!"

Qin Anran also has Gu Hong’s private phone number, so she saw the post on his Moments.

Actually, even if Qin Anran didn’t see it, some of her friends and girlfriends would madly message her to alert her.

"Anran! Anran! Gu Hong actually proposed to a mere staff member!"

"Oh my, Anran, you should check out Gu Hong’s Moments, he, he’s actually ’officially announced’ it!"

"Anran, what exactly is going on? You, you and Gu Hong—"

"...Anran, Gu Hong has gone too far, he always said he couldn’t forget you, and now that you’re about to return to the country, he pulls this stunt!"

Qin Anran’s WeChat was practically about to explode.

Looking at the new messages on the page, she was somewhat headache-stricken.

Regarding these people’s concerns or schadenfreude, Qin Anran was too lazy to reply one by one.

She simply posted a message in a group where most of them were, "I already know about Gu Hong’s engagement, so you don’t need to keep tagging me!"

"Also, I broke up with Gu Hong years ago, we’re just friends, not lovers anymore."

Thus, whether Gu Hong is getting engaged or married, it has nothing to do with Miss Qin.

Qin Anran didn’t send a voice message, but her words were imbued with a sense of freedom and indifference.

Everyone then realized that Qin Anran truly didn’t care about Gu Hong.

Come to think of it, it was Qin Anran who proposed the breakup; after she went abroad, she quickly found a foreign boyfriend, showing off their love countless times on her Moments.

It’s Gu Hong who can’t stop thinking about Qin Anran, not Qin Anran who can’t let go of the past.

Knowing Qin Anran’s stance, a group of wealthy second-generation folks ceased discussing the topic and began asking—

"Anran, have you booked your flight?"

"When are you coming back? I’ll go to the airport to pick you up!"

"A welcome party! We must have a grand gathering, to have a proper reunion!"

Qin Anran was more inclined to answer these questions.

She held her phone and replied one by one.

Just then, her phone suddenly rang.

When Qin Anran saw the caller ID, she felt a bit of a headache.

But, she still pressed the answer button.

"Hello, Mom—"

Before Qin Anran could finish greeting her real mother, she heard the woman’s voice on the other end, talking non-stop like a machine gun.

"Anran, I heard from your cousin that Gu Hong got engaged to some girl from god knows where?"

"Didn’t I ask you to sweet talk Gu Hong? Have you contacted him at all?"

"How much does Gu Hong like you? He still hasn’t forgotten you after all these years! But you, you just had to mix with those foreigners!"

"What’s the use of them being handsome and capable of romance? Can they help solve our family’s crisis this time?"

"Anran, our family’s business is really in deep trouble, without Mrs. Gu’s help, we’ll be bankrupt!"

"...you, you quickly call Gu Hong and talk to him properly. After all, it’s just a verbal engagement, Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu might not even be aware."

"If they knew, they surely wouldn’t agree... Aiya, Anran, did you even hear a word I said!"

Qin Anran: ... You’re shouting so loudly, of course I heard.

The problem is, did you even give me a chance to reply?

Secretly making a small complaint, Qin Anran didn’t show impatience towards her real mother.

"Mom, I don’t love Gu Hong, and I don’t want to marry him. I’ve already made this clear to Gu Hong!"

Qin Anran tried her best to convey her thoughts to her mother calmly.

Mrs. Qin exploded, "What? You’ve talked to Gu Hong already? And told him this?"

"You, this child, are really going to drive your dad and me crazy!"

"What love? Can love fill your stomach?"

"Our family is on the verge of bankruptcy, and you’re still here talking about love?"

Mrs. Qin only felt it’s absurd, with an intense feeling of powerlessness.

Anran, their daughter, has truly been spoiled by them, unable to distinguish priorities!

However, Mrs. Qin quickly realized.

Judging from her daughter’s words, Gu Hong still has feelings for her; it’s the daughter who turned him down.

So, Gu Hong suddenly posted on his Moments, announcing the engagement.

Ugh, this whole affair seems like a joke; he’s clearly just teasing their daughter.

Gu Hong must still be deeply in love with their daughter, otherwise, he wouldn’t do this!

With such a speculation, Mrs. Qin grew increasingly urgent, "Anran, listen to me, you quickly—"

This time, it’s Qin Anran who interrupted her real mom.
