Sonata: Fleeing to Avoid an Arranged Marriage(Hiatus)

Chapter 25.2

“Oh, let me see.” Xiao Wang took the camera and smiled at Xiao Gu with a smile, “Boss Xiao, why don’t I take a picture of you and Sister Rongrong.”

Xiao Gu wasn’t fond of taking pictures very much, so he shook his head: “No need.”

“Oh, don’t be shy, it’s rare to visit such beautiful scenery.” Xiao Wang insisted, and pulled Lin Jingrong to Xiao Gu. She arranged them standing next to each other and got ready to take pictures, “Smile.”

Lin Jingrong smiled up at Xiao Gu: “Let’s just take one.”

Xiao Gu said nothing, Xiao Wang winked at Lin Jingrong and pressed the shutter.

After the picture was taken, she walked away holding her camera: “I’ll go and take pictures over there, you two have a nice chat.”

Lin Jingrong watched her drift away. After thinking for a while, she glanced at Xiao Gu next to her: “It’s going to be New Year soon. Would you like to go to my hometown this year for fun?”

Lin Jingrong looked a little embarrassed. She pursed her lips slightly and smiled, “Don’t get me wrong, I have no other meaning, watching you staying here alone every year …”

Lin Jingrong was silent for a while, and then smiled: “I know.” She looked up at Xiao Gu and excused herself, “I’ll go to Xiao Wang over there.”

Xiao Gu nodded and strode towards the other side.

 The group played in the mountain until noon, and after eating some biscuits to fill their hunger, they went down the mountain. Going down the mountain was faster than going up, but it was still a little late when they returned to the villa. Fortunately, the restaurant was still serving lunch. Everyone ate a meal and took a short break. It was only after five o’clock that they started their return trip to City A.

Their seats were previously assigned when they came, but before driving, Lin Jingrong squeezed into a minivan carrying employees. Although Chen Shishi was in the dark, the thought of Mi Qing and Xiao Gu riding in one car prompted her to also cram into another van.

Mi Qing: “…”

She also didn’t want to be left alone with Xiao Gu for more than two hours, but the two vans couldn’t squeeze in any more, and everyone refused to let her in.

Xiao Gu’s Land Rover honked behind Mi Qing, and Chen Shishi urged her naughtily: “Go, go, the boss’s car is yours alone.”

Mi Qing: “…”
