Chapter 2056 - 2059: Reserved and Shy Beautiful Lady

In that instant, the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui froze. Not only did her beautiful eyes stare at Shen Qiang in astonishment, but that trace of disbelief in her gaze almost seemed solid.Looking at her in a daze, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Don't be surprised. If you don't want to respond, then don't say anything about this kind of thing. But I'm very clear-headed right now. I know who I am, I know where I am, I know what I'm saying, and I'm also very sure about what I want."

Seeing the seriousness in Shen Qiang's eyes, the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui blinked, then hesitated and said, "You're serious?"

Shen Qiang nodded and said, "Yes. You don't have to respond, but I think I have to tell you."

Hearing this, the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui stared at Shen Qiang without blinking. Her expression suddenly turned charming; not only did her movements become inexplicably reserved, but a faint blush also rose on her pretty face. Her beautiful eyes dodged Shen Qiang's gaze, and she murmured softly, almost to herself, "What nonsense. You've got so many stunning beauties around you, and you say you like me. Only a ghost would believe that."

Shen Qiang was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.

If an average clueless kid heard this, he'd definitely take it as a rejection from the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui.

If he really thought that, then he'd be stupid to the core, the kind who deserves to stay single for life.

Because women, you know, have to be reserved, have to be virtuous, so saying one thing and meaning another is practically their patent.

On the surface, what she said sounded like a rejection, but in essence, what it really expressed was just that she felt a bit insecure, that she couldn't quite believe Shen Qiang meant what he said.

That's all.

Rejecting him?

Not happening!

"I'm serious. I like to joke around usually, but when it comes to feelings, I'm very serious."

Hearing this, the fair-skinned, charming young madam Gao Hui not only had a faint blush rise on her pretty face, but her expression also turned playful. Then, when she noticed Shen Qiang staring straight at her without blinking, she couldn't help giving a sly smile. Her beautiful eyes lit up as she teased, "All right then, tell me what you like about me, so I can change it."

Shen Qiang instantly burst into a smile.

What do you like about me? I'll change it.

Another line with a hidden meaning. It sounds like she's saying, I'm going to fix all the things you like about me so you won't like me anymore, and then we won't have to be together.

But the real focus is actually the first half of the sentence: what do you like about me.

In the whole sentence, there's still no word that clearly means rejection.

If you're dumb enough to retreat the moment you hear this kind of line,

then your Emotional Quotient is explosively low. Forget about flirting with women—just go home, tidy up, and spend time with your girlfriend on the hard drive. At least you won't walk away empty-handed.

Not only that.

Between men and women, in this kind of situation, there's a Skill to how you answer.

An Ordinary clueless kid, even if he realizes that what the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui wants now is just for Shen Qiang to keep confessing, when he's in full-on cute-but-ignorant mode, he'll probably just babble on like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube—about her figure, her looks, her abilities, her heart, her temperament, even some trivial little thing.

There's nothing wrong with saying it like that.

But the pity is, the human heart is complicated. A lot of the time, once you get specific and point to one trait or one thing she did, because your perspectives are different, you'll have different ideas. After all, Shen Qiang will never be Gao Hui; he'll never know which sentence is the one she actually wants to hear and agrees with.

So Shen Qiang smiled slightly and said, "Every bit of you."

In an instant, the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui's eyes curved in a smile as she scolded playfully, "I don't believe you."

But right now, her eyes were bright; not only did her delicate face gain a bit more allure, her eyes were full of affection, and that teasing little smile on her lips somehow made her look even more charming. Her soft pink lips looked seductive, and under the light, her pearly white teeth gleamed crystal clear.

Watching her radiant, not giving a direct answer but for some reason looking all coy and cute.

Shen Qiang smiled and gestured for the waiter to pour wine for the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui.

Then, after the waiter left, Shen Qiang looked at Gao Hui with a smile and said, "People are smart and know how to control themselves, but the one thing we can't control is our feelings. Sometimes, even when you know you shouldn't like someone and that it's not good for you, you still rush toward them like a moth to a flame."

The gorgeous young madam Gao Hui blushed and pressed her lips together in a smile as she said, "So you see yourself as the moth?"

Shen Qiang chuckled and said, "Sometimes people know very well that being together, living a simple, ordinary life is real happiness. But once they're together, no matter how much they lecture themselves in their heart, they just can't fall in love."

"That's too philosophical, I don't get it," the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui said teasingly.

Shen Qiang raised his glass with a smile and said, "You don't need to understand all that. You just need to know that I like you, and that's enough. That's more important than any sweet talk."

The gorgeous young madam Gao Hui couldn't help but giggle, then she said coquettishly, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Talk about something else. I heard from Jing Xiangwei that in a few days, some important people are going to the Heshenghe Mountain Villa—one is called Qin Yurou, one is called Pan Meiqing—both of them are super beauties."

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Jing Xiangwei really doesn't keep anything from you."

"I asked her," the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui said.

Shen Qiang laughed. "If you like, you can go to the Mountain Villa anytime and stay as long as you want. If you're willing to make that your home, I'd probably be so happy I'd jump for joy."

The gorgeous young madam Gao Hui pursed her lips in a smile and said, "No way. It's too far from the shop, way too inconvenient. Right now I'm renting an apartment in the complex across from the bun shop. It's really convenient—five minutes to the shop. When my kid comes back on weekends, it feels really warm and homey too."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang smiled, looked at her seriously, and said, "I think you're working too hard right now. Maybe you should hire a few more people at the shop; that way you'd have it easier."

At that, the gorgeous young madam Gao Hui said sweetly, "No way. The shop carries the future life of me and my child—I don't feel safe handing it over to other people. And don't worry, I'm still young; I can handle the work. When I can't anymore, we'll talk about it then."

Shen Qiang smiled, picked up his glass, and said, "All right. Since you feel this is the only way you can feel at ease, I won't ask you to change. Cheers. Here's to booming business at the bun shop."

The gorgeous young madam Gao Hui smiled until her eyes curved and said with a double entendre, "Cheers. I wish you great success in your career and that all your wishes come true."

Hearing this, a surge of joy rose in Shen Qiang's heart, and he couldn't help but fix his gaze on the gorgeous young madam's face, already flushed even before drinking. The moment their eyes met, seeing that look in Shen Qiang's eyes that seemed to see right through everything.

The gorgeous young madam Gao Hui suddenly became shy. Her whole body turned flustered and nervous again.

"He's so handsome, so outstanding. He understood what I meant, didn't he?"
