Qin Qian was the first to greet Gu Ningyi, "Hi, Mr. Gu, long ti no see."
Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes lifted slightly, giving Qin Qian a glance, he responded faintly. Seeing Mr. Gu, other classmates also gathered around to greet him.
He seed to be in a good mood today; although his expression was indifferent, he still responded to everyone who greeted him.
Dong Xin Yan pursed her lips, took a deep breath, clenched her hands slightly, and then spoke in a low voice, "Mr. Gu."
However, while he responded to everyone else, when she called him, it was as if he didn’t hear her at all—he didn’t even glance at her, causing Dong Xin Yan’s heart to sink instantly.
She had held onto a small bit of hope, thinking that after a few days, Gu Ningyi’s anger might have subsided a little, but now it seed not at all!
Dong Xin Yan’s delicate brows furrowed involuntarily. What to do?
Seeing this, Qin Qian also frowned, then raised her hand slightly, nudging Yuan Shen beside her with her elbow, signaling him to think of a way.
Yuan Shen was not entirely clear about the conflict between Gu Ningyi and Dong Xin Yan. However, since childhood, the two had been at odds, constantly bickering, but there was no deep-seated hatred between them. Actually, it would be good if they could reconcile.
Moreover, if he helped Dong Xin Yan this ti, it would be easier to call in a favor when he needed her help in the future.
Having calculated this, Yuan Shen imdiately put on a sincere face, looking like a peacemaker, and said to Gu Ningyi, "I say, Mr. Gu, you and Xinyan have grown up together since childhood. Even if Xinyan did sothing to upset you, be the bigger person and don’t hold a grudge against her, alright?"
"How about this, Xinyan, you toast Mr. Gu, and we’ll just consider the past as erased like chalk on a board, okay?"
As he spoke, Yuan Shen discreetly picked the smallest glass, filled it with wine, and handed it to Dong Xin Yan.
Dong Xin Yan took the glass, held it with both hands, looked at Gu Ningyi, summoned her courage, and said softly, "Mr. Gu, I was wrong about that matter, I’m sorry."
After speaking, Dong Xin Yan raised her head and downed all the wine in the glass in one gulp.
Unfortunately, Gu Ningyi remained languidly seated there, his face expressionless, his dark eyes deep, showing no emotion.
Instantly, the entire scene turned awkward.
Yuan Shen awkwardly scratched his head; even his brother didn’t give him face. It seed he needed to escalate the situation!
He thought for a mont, then said, "Well, one glass of wine might be a little too little, why not drink a whole bottle instead?" Saying this, he directly pushed a bottle of wine on the table in front of Dong Xin Yan.
Qin Qian’s eyes widened imdiately, and she kicked Yuan Shen hard under the table.
Yuan Shen took the kick from Qin Qian with a bit of grievance; he didn’t want to be the villain here, but the conflict between these two spanned eight years, eight years! The Anti-Japanese War only lasted eight years! How could they reconcile without such a gesture?
"Mr. Gu, if Xinyan drinks this whole bottle, don’t hold it against her, alright!"
This ti, Gu Ningyi did show so reaction, his dark eyes lifted slightly, giving Yuan Shen a glance, but still, he said nothing.
Yuan Shen felt there might be a chance, and quickly gave Dong Xin Yan a look, signaling her to drink up.
Dong Xin Yan looked at the large bottle of wine in front of her, her hands trembling slightly.
