Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack! Chapter 336 - 335: Liberation

This winter break, Gu Xiaoqing plans to go ho.

It’s the New Year, and most of Gu Xiaoqing’s work is settled. The office’s business license has been processed completely, and the staff are on track. The company no longer requires Gu Xiaoqing to be present in order to operate smoothly.

Gu Xiaoqing is eager to return because there has been a phone call from ho long ago.

Originally, her sister Gu Xiaoying’s wedding was scheduled for May, but to accommodate Gu Xiaoqing’s schedule, it was pushed to the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month.

How could Gu Xiaoqing delay it?

Nothing is more important than her sister’s wedding.

Gu Xiaoqing specifically prepared a wedding gift for Gu Xiaoying.

The plane ticket is booked for the ti when the break starts, leaving the arrangents for the shop to Guo Donghua. With more than a dozen shops needing holiday breaks, salary paynts, and personnel arrangents, it all needs leadership, so it’s up to Guo Donghua, the boss, to oversee it.

For this, Guo Donghua gave Gu Xiaoqing plenty of side-eye, expressing absolute dissatisfaction because he was hoping to attend Gu Xiaoying’s wedding too.

Now that everything is almost settled, even taking the plane to return ho seems rushed and may not make it in ti.

Gu Xiaoqing said many nice words to get a good face from Guo Donghua.

Gu Xiaoqing’s plane arrives at noon, and she had already called Gu Ruhai in advance; every ti, it is her dad who cos to pick her up.

This ti is no exception. The airport is in the suburbs, and Gu Xiaoqing, carrying luggage, genuinely needs soone to pick her up.

Exiting the airport, Gu Xiaoqing unexpectedly sees Fang Shaohan but doesn’t see her dad behind him.

No need to say, her dad has sold her out.

With a sigh, Gu Xiaoqing braces herself and heads over. She owes Fang Shaohan a favor anyway, so she cannot keep a cold face.

"Fang Shaohan, why are you here? Where’s my dad?"

Fang Shaohan naturally takes the suitcase from Gu Xiaoqing’s hand, "Uncle Gu has urgent matters today, simply can’t spare the ti, so he sent ."

Gu Xiaoqing frowns, wondering what’s so urgent that her dad didn’t spare ti for her, the first ti it’s happened.

Following behind Fang Shaohan to the parking lot, Fang Shaohan still drives that black cross-country business car. He opens the trunk to place the suitcase inside, while Gu Xiaoqing wants to open the back car door to sit in, but obviously, Fang Shaohan’s actions are faster than Gu Xiaoqing’s.

In almost two seconds, he arrives by Gu Xiaoqing’s side and opens the passenger seat door, pushing Gu Xiaoqing to sit inside.

The idea of maintaining distance clearly fails.

Fang Shaohan starts the car.

Neither speaks; Gu Xiaoqing keeps gazing out the car window at the bustling streets, wondering what happiness or sorrow each pedestrian might be experiencing in their life.

Gu Xiaoqing feels a bit absent-minded.

"Heard your milk tea shop has opened many chain stores, developing very well."

Fang Shaohan’s voice breaks Gu Xiaoqing’s daydream.

Turning back, she sees Fang Shaohan’s profile. Today, he looks sowhat different, in a sophisticated suit, with a tall figure, sharply defined thin lips, and a handso nose.

Gu Xiaoqing’s heart races uncontrollably, this man is increasingly charming in the mature masculine way.

Feeling guilty, she turns away, replying sullenly, "Yeah, not bad. Always thought about running my own business."

"Do you have issues with ?"

Gu Xiaoqing is startled, turning her head to et Fang Shaohan’s gaze.

"How could I?"

Even if she did have issues, she wouldn’t admit to it.

"You find it difficult just to look at . I’m interested in you, isn’t it excessive that we can’t even be friends?"

Fang Shaohan’s bluntness leaves Gu Xiaoqing defenseless, directly tearing away the facade to lay things bare.

Gu Xiaoqing sheepishly replies, "It’s not that, actually, I really hope we’re friends, but inside, I might be uncomfortable."

Since Fang Shaohan isn’t afraid, why should she be worried?

Fang Shaohan smiles, saying, "Actually, you don’t need to feel burdened. Liking you is my intention, which may cause you psychological burden. But I feel my affection for you, if it can be asured, then I can restrain my heart; but I’m just an ordinary person."

Faced with Gu Xiaoqing’s current state, Fang Shaohan is equally troubled.

He can handle many difficulties and challenges, but with Gu Xiaoqing, it’s hard to manage.

Initially, he was disliked by many for this; after all, affection from his brother’s beloved is bound to be criticized. However, emotions are the hardest to explain in this world.

It’s not sothing that moral, theoretical, or conventional restrictions can address.

This is difficult.

Fang Shaohan has considered giving up, especially since there’s Fang Shaonan. Fang Shaohan doesn’t want to cause his brother any harm.

This ti, opening up honestly is because Fang Shaohan doesn’t want this incongruent and awkward interaction to continue, with Gu Xiaoqing avoiding him whenever possible.

The distance between them is so great that, even with Fang Shaohan trying hard to fix things, it’s indeed too difficult.

With only one person’s cooperation, this difficulty is imaginable.

This conversation is sothing Fang Shaohan has thought over; Fang Shaonan has graduated this year, and upon returning, he won’t be leaving again.

The family is already arranging work, Fang Shaonan’s interest in Gu Xiaoqing has existed since youth, and if Fang Shaonan can genuinely live happily with Gu Xiaoqing, Fang Shaohan is willing to let go.

Gu Xiaoqing feels a bit touched, "Fang Shaohan, actually I should apologize. I know your feelings, but I’m concerned about so many things I fear—I can’t face many things and challenges, so I can’t face you.

You’re a good man, with many qualities that should make you the ideal husband won dream of. But we’re not ant for each other."

These words need clarity, even though there was a mont of emotional stir, Gu Xiaoqing remains calm and rational above emotional inclination.

"I understand, so I specifically ca to pick you up this ti, to clarify that we can be friends from now on. You no longer need to feel burdened, freely pursue what you want to do, boldly love whom you want to love, and I’ll be there supporting you."

Fang Shaohan tightly grips the steering wheel, knowing deep inside how much it hurts to say these words.

"I also wish you to find your happiness."

Gu Xiaoqing sincerely says.

It seems everything is liberated.
