Chapter 825: Pretending to Be My Girlfriend
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Wen Chi brought Ling Lin around and saw that it was almost time. He made up an excuse to say that he had to deal with some matters at the hospital and sent Ling Lin home.
Actually, Ling Lin knew that he was just making an excuse, but she couldn’t say anything.
When Wen Chi returned to his own residence, it was already past five in the afternoon.
He suddenly remembered something and immediately called Gu Huanhuan.
Gu Huanhuan was exercising on the treadmill at home when she was startled by the sudden phone call.
“Who is it?” Gu Huanhuan asked politely. Actually, she was waiting at home for news of the last audition. It had been two days, but there was still no news. She could only wait until Monday.
“It’s me. You didn’t save my number?” Wen Chi’s calm voice came from the other end of the phone.
Gu Huanhuan could tell at once. It was strange. She seemed to have saved his phone number previously.
“Uh, yes...” Gu Huanhuan suddenly stuttered.
“Do you have time? Didn’t you want to pay me back for the car repair? Shall we have dinner together later?” Wen Chi invited her.
“Okay, sure. Then let’s go to the usual place.” It was safe and convenient there.
When the boss took the menu and went to prepare it, Gu Huanhuan finally remembered what was important.
“Dr. Wen, you haven’t told me how much the repair fee is,” Gu Huanhuan asked anxiously.
“Well, there’s no rush. I want to discuss something with you. Then, we’ll be even. You don’t have to pay me for the repair.” Wen Chi looked at her seriously.
Gu Huanhuan’s heart skipped a beat. What happened? Why was he so serious?
“Well, it’s like this. My mother was urging me to get a girlfriend, and your commercial happened to be playing. Then, I pointed at it and told my mother that you were my girlfriend.” Wen Chi was still a little embarrassed when he said that.
Gu Huanhuan was dumbfounded.”What? Girlfriend?”
“Fake girlfriend,” Wen Chi quickly explained.
“You’re using me as a shield?” Gu Huanhuan was speechless.
“I’m sorry. I was in a hurry at that time. Moreover, you hit my car and I didn’t even hold it against you. You shouldn’t hold it against me for this matter, right?” Wen Chi carefully observed her expression.
Gu Huanhuan looked conflicted. She asked, “Then what do you need me to do?”
Wen Chi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. He said, “Just come home with me for a meal. I’ll tell my mother in the future that we’re not suitable for each other and that we’ve broken up.”
“Isn’t that lying to the elderly?” Gu Huanhuan frowned.
“That’s a white lie.” Wen Chi had a helpless look on his face. Actually, he didn’t want to, but there was nothing he could do.
