After Being Marked by a Powerful Love Rival

Chapters 11-20

Chapter 11 – We can be friends

Song Yi knew a friend who worked in the editing phase of dramaland. He was a very smart and diligent guy. For some reason, he went on a trip to Macau with someone. When he came back, he had already picked up some bad habits. He took loans with high-interest and gambled the money everywhere else. The loan shark brought his people to see that guy and beat him until he was half dead.

Although the relationship between Song Yi and Gu Xingchuan was so tense now, they were both high school classmates after all. Song Yi couldn't bear to watch Gu Xingchuan fall into the vortex of loan sharks.

After taking a shower, Gu Xingchuan put on a loose nightgown, casually tied a belt around his waist. With a wide neckline, it revealed a stunning waist packed with muscles as he sat, crossing his legs on the sofa opposite Song Yi.

Song Yi almost went blind. He turned his face and looked away, coughing to ease his embarrassment. "I want to talk to you about our relationship."

"Huh?" Gu Xingchuan tilted his head, his half-dried hair messy. "What is our relationship?"

Song Yi smiled calmly and seriously answered, "We are classmates and colleagues. Brushing aside Shen Li, I think we can also be friends."

Gu Xingchuan stared at him for a few seconds, then pointed to his chest. "You want to be friends with me?"

Song Yi immediately wore an earnest expression, appearing rather sincere and saying with heartfelt belief, "Xingchuan, being classmates, we understand each other's personality. Although there is a misunderstanding between us, it is not impossible to resolve this misunderstanding. We only need open communication."

Gu Xingchuan smiled and eyed Song Yi. "Fine. Since you want to have an open communication with me, kneel down and apologize to me first."

Song Yi cursed to himself, Little bastard. I will not only kneel down for you, I can also give you incense. Beautify you till death, let the smoke suffocate your face. "Xingchuan, I hope you can be more serious, we have to eliminate the anger and biases we have towards each other."

"Song Yi, are you playing with me here?" They were both self aware. How could Gu Xingchuan not know what kind of person Song Yi was.

Song Yi blinked a few times, bearing an innocent look on his face. "Calm down, I'm serious. I really want to be your friend."

Gu Xingchuan leaned forward. He gazed at Song Yi and smiled wickedly. With a clear voice, he said, "My friends are not like you. Aren't you tired of bending to my will like this every day?"

Song Yi pretended not to understand. He smiled happily, "Xingchuan, thank you for your concern. You see, we are very suitable to be friends, you have begun to care about me, this is the first step in our friendship."

Gu Xingchuan gave an angry puff of laughter. He half-squinted his eyes in warning. "You have gotten better at playing word games with me here."

When Gu Xingchuan was angry, Song Yi felt very happy. But this time, the purpose was not to anger Gu Xingchuan. He pinched the bridge of his nose and said smoothly, "There are many friends, many roads; many enemies, many walls. Such a principle, you must be well-aware with your smarts. Why should we continue being like this?"

Gu Xingchuan looked at him without saying a word. Song Yi seized the opportunity to fan the flames. "Our biggest conflict is Shen Li, but affection can only be a fair competition. Arguing and fighting will not provide any help, it will only affect the progress of our work. This is not worth the loss."

"You came to me because of this?" Gu Xingchuan's face sank, and his dark pupils were icy.

Song Yi couldn't figure out which sentence made Gu Xingchuan become crazy again. He immediately changed the topic, putting on a big brother appearance, and went, "Let's just chat casually. Are you short of money recently? Just tell me, I will definitely help you."
