Chapter 191 - 191 She's My Girlfriend

"Hey, can I take a picture with you?" A girl in a green dress with a caramel-colored cardigan said shyly as a suspicious blush crept on her cute face. Her eyes showed the shyness of an infatuated girl but was filled with determination.

Behind her were other girls, her friends to be exact. She was the one that was pushed forward to speak this little request of their's. 

"Sure, anything for such a cute girl like you." Ma Rong coolly said this with a gentle smile on her pretty face. She then swiftly took that girl's hand and kissed it. His movements were fluid and natural, as if he had done this a lot of times. Also, there were no awkwardness in her actions.

The girls squeeled in excitement. They were drawn into the cool and gentle presence of Ma Rong. Since they got their permission, they soon started to crowd around Ma Rong and started to take a lot of pictures. All of their faces were rosey. 

It would have been fine if it were only a few girls, but then it got a lot more crowded than before. Ma Rong also did not expect this to happen in this busy street in the heart of the city. She was treated as if she was some sort of an actress or model. 

What was more was that they were starting to pull on her hard. It was starting to hurt her but she still had to remain her gentle smile in front of these ladies who was vying for her attention. She cursed herself silently for her own mistake.

This was the scene that Gu Chen came upon as he was on his way back to his restaurant. 

'This...what is happening? Why does it seem to be that when he sees her, she would always be in some sort of trouble?'

"Stop the car." Gu Chen said to the driver while closing his laptop at the same time.

The driver was startled and was not sure if he had heard his young master wrong. "Master? You want me to stop here?"

"Yes. Stop the car right here." He said, his eyes still glued on the tall figure at the center of the crowd. Was he being nosy? But he just could not ignore her and left her there surrounded by those girls. Also, he can't just leave the girl he was interested with troubled like this.

"Yes, young master." The driver then turn to the side and the car gradually stopped. 

Gu Chen immediately climbed out of the car and went straight to the crowd. He only had his eyes on the girl who had on a gentle smile that did not change over time even if she was being pulled by the girls.

He smiled defeatedly. He must be out of his mind. He had already gotten rejected once during that day and yet here he was still approaching her like this. Well, this muct only mean that he had already fallen for her real hard. 

With his hands shoved, he strode over the crows with great momentum and an air of confidence. He stopped as soon as he had reached the crowd. He took a deep breath and a serious look was then on his handsome face.

Ma Rong was in a bind. She does not know when this swarm of ladies will stop. She was really not good with declining anything from them and now this happened. 

'Shit. Just my bad luck! Should I call Berry to help me? Uh, no. She's away in her honeymoon. Mother Song? No, I also can't call her because the head of the Song family is definitely spending time with her. Can someone come save me right now?' 

"I'm sorry everyone. Could you let me through?" Gu Chen said this in a voice loud enough for the crowd of ladies to stop and look at him with bewildered eyes. Unconsciouly, the ladies parted for Gu Chen to walk through. 

They were all wondering that this hot guy was doing here? However, wasn't this also good? He was also such a fine man with great looks with a gentleman's atmosphere. 

It was at this moment wherein she saw the figure of someone she did not at all expect to some. Her eyes sparkled for a moment as her heart skipped a beat in her c.h.e.s.t. Somehow, she was relieved and hope emerged in her. 

She looked at him unblinkingly walking closer to her until their they were already a foot away from each other. She had to crane her neck up to look at his face that. Their eyes locked.

'Was he always this tall? I'm already tall and did not notice this when we danced last time.' Her eyes was still on Gu Chen, openly staring at him with a baffled expression. But then she remembered that she was in fact wearing heels at that time when they were dancing.

"Wha--" Ma Rong was about to ask what he was doing here when she was cut off by the next action Gu Chen made. "Ah-!"

She let out a small cry of surprise when Gu Chen suddenly pulled her waist toward him. She had actually hit his hard c.h.e.s.t. They were too close...too intimate for comfort. 

Her mind went blank while her face turned crimson red. She felt getting dizzy.

"What is this?"

"OMG! What are they doing?"

Immediately, whispered broke out from the crowd. 

"I'm sorry ladies but I have to get my girlfriend back. We still have a date to go to." Gu Chen said this with a sweet bright smile as he swept his gaze at the crowd. His smile widened even more when he saw the incredulous looks they had as they had just realized that the man they were goshing about a while ago was in fact a...woman. 

'Girlfried?! Since when?' Ma Rong's eyes went wide. 

They looked at Ma Rong from head to toe a second and then third time. She was wearing an over-sized white shirt and ripped jeans. Her hair was tied in a bun loosely and a black cup. They did not thought much about it for they thought that she was cool about how simple yet had this bad boy air in him. 

Then their eyes stopped on her c.h.e.s.t area. Although it was not that big, there were definitely bumps on them, indicating her b.r.e.a.s.ts. 

"So he was a girl? A woman?" 

"Eh? Why did she not tell us about that just a moment ago?! We've been deceived."

"Right, right. How awful of her to make a fool out of us."

"But...don't you think that she still looked cool? I really don't mind if he was a guy or girl. She was really nice and gentle while talking to me." 

"Yes. She even acted so sweetly to me, kissing my hand. No one had ever did that to me before." 

"What? You don't mind that she had deceived you?" 

"Why? Does it really matter?"

"Isn't it just because those boyish clothes suits her really well and that she looked cooler with it than other guys?"

"I agree. Why make a fuss about this?"

The crowd started argue about it. Ma Rong and Gu Chen was also left speechless with this turn of events. This was not at all in their expectations. Unconsciously, Ma Rong's hand that was on Gu Che's c.h.e.s.t clenched tightly, crumpling Gu Che's shirt in the process. 

Gu Chen, noticing the sudden shift of emotion on Ma Rong, looked at her from his peripheral vision. He pulled her even closer to him in worry making her look at him, startled and blushing. 

He felt like his heart just got shot with a love syrum. It felt like his heart got squeezed yet felt sweet. 

'Ah~! Unfair. This is so unfair. Why is she looking at me with such watery eyes and mesmerizing face?

"Well then, ladies. If you'll excuse us, we will now go to our date." He said and turned to walk away with Ma Rong in his arms. 

At one of the cafe shops that was adjacent to the area of the crowd, there sat a woman in luxurious clothes, with a coffee on her had and a smile full of contempt plastered on her well-done face. 

"My, my. Big sister Rong, I did not expect to know that you are back?" She chuckled and sipped her coffee. In a split second, her eyes flashed a dark glint full of contempt and hatred.
