Chapter 158: Here For the First Time
Those that had called Gu Qingmo were his old cla.s.smates, and they were also his childhood friends.
Now they were studying in various cities around the country, it was only during New Year’s Time that they could gather together.
Over ten guys and girls in their twenties were there. When Gu Qingjiu saw this, she felt glad that Yu Bao’er didn’t come as well.
At the dining table, Gu Qingmo and this bunch of old cla.s.smates had a great time talking.
As for Gu Qingjiu, she quietly sat by his side, eating her own food. She would only speak up a word or two if someone spoke to her.
Gu Qingmo rarely brought Gu Qingjiu along to such events, so even some of his old cla.s.smates had no idea Gu Qingmo had a younger sister.
Seeing Gu Qingmo’s younger sister was so pretty, they kept heaping praises on her.
Gu Qingjiu was getting really sick of hearing it, though.
At that moment, she was only wondering when they were heading to the KTV.
It was because she had never been to such a place before, that Gu Qingjiu wanted so badly to go.
After being bound for too long, there were many places Gu Qingjiu wanted to visit.
This group of people ate from five in the afternoon and all the way to nearly eight in the evening.
The skies outside had completely darkened.
With the night scenery as a backdrop, the colorful neon lights drenched the city in a glamorous glow.
One would feel dazed standing amidst such lights.
The instant they stepped out of the hotel, Gu Qingjiu felt chilly.
There was a heater inside the hotel and after staying inside for a long while, the outdoors felt extremely cold. The contrasting temperatures were difficult to bear for some.
Most of them had their necks shrunk. They stomped their feet, saying they ought to get to the KTV as soon as possible to sing.
The group of over ten people booked several cabs online and headed to their destination.
On the way there, Gu Qingjiu called Yu Bao’er.
Other than the driver, there were four people in the car. Gu Qingjiu, who sat in the front pa.s.senger seat, noticed that other than her cousin and older brother, another girl followed them into the car and was seated right next to Gu Qingmo.
She had long and flowy hair, wore a beige-colored coat, and appeared intellectual and gracious. She had exquisite-looking eyes, and with her long legs crossed, her black stockings gave off a somewhat seductive vibe.
She was probably the kind of girl regarded as a G.o.ddess by guys.
And she was seated beside Gu Qingmo.
When Gu Qingjiu called Yu Bao’er, she kept hearing this girl chatting with Gu Qingmo, seemingly casually asking him about how he was doing lately.
One could sense that this G.o.ddess regarded Gu Qingmo as different from others.
Gu Qingmo had a das.h.i.+ng appearance and had been a popular and influential person in school since young.
Basketball, piano, guitar, and stuff like that were easy to him; also, he always had stellar academic results.
He was the person Gu Qingjiu admired most in the world.
She considered herself extremely lucky to have such a person as an older brother.
But because of her inferiority complex, the past Gu Qingjiu never revealed his brother’s existence to anyone.
Gu Qingjiu wasn’t surprised that her older brother was popular.
Hence, it didn’t strike her as unusual to see a G.o.ddess-like girl hitting on Gu Qingmo.
Gu Qingmo perhaps could tell, but he had answered the questions she asked graciously.
But it was merely out of politeness, and he hadn’t implied any other meaning. Whether the G.o.ddess would misunderstand depended on her level of comprehension.
The bored Yao Yanshen played on his phone beside them throughout.
When they reached the KTV, everyone got out of the car.
When Gu Qingmo got out, he pulled Gu Qingjiu’s arm and then walked in with the rest.
