Cutting In and Crashing – Is This Your Driving School Instructor? 50

Chapter 50: Qiuya’s Wedding, and You’re Here Singing and Dancing

Xia Xiangsi considered herself a sensible girl. She had a dinner date with Gu Yin, but while she was in the restroom, he was sitting with other people, and didn’t even greet her upon her return.

She could understand; Gu Yin was probably mindful of her celebrity status, trying to protect her…

But she waited for a long time, and this guy still didn’t come over. Wasn’t that a bit excessive?

If she hadn’t truly couldn’t take it anymore, Xia Xiangsi wouldn’t have disregarded her celebrity status, or Gu Yin’s face in front of his friends, to come and question him like this.

“How much longer do I have to wait?”

The girl’s tone was cold. The only emotion clearly audible in her words was a trace of resentment towards Gu Yin. However, from the perspective of onlookers like Tong Liang and Jiang Yun, hearing her say this felt like…

A boyfriend made his girlfriend wait a long time, and the girlfriend was filled with resentment.

But… that wasn’t right!

If it were an ordinary girl, any girl on the street, questioning Gu Yin with such a resentful tone, they could accept it.

But this person, the one they had been gossiping about since they arrived, was the big-name celebrity Xia Xiangsi!

Why would such a high-profile female star come and say this to Gu Yin?

Could it be… that she was the one having dinner with Gu Yin?

Could it be… that she was the “significant other” Gu Yin had mentioned?

“Damn!” Tong Liang wasn’t a refined person to begin with, and under the shock, he couldn’t help but swear.

This was too shocking!

After years of not seeing each other since high school graduation, their ordinary high school classmate from their small county was involved with that top-tier female celebrity, and they even had a dinner date together?!

Listen to this, is this even Chinese?!

If this hadn’t happened in real life, Tong Liang wouldn’t believe it even if he were beaten to death!

“Slap!”

An invisible, loud slap echoed in the air. Just now, Tong Liang had been constantly implying that Gu Yin was flirting with Xia Xiangsi, that Gu Yin was offending Xia Xiangsi. Now it seems, their reactions were because they actually knew each other!

Instead, he looked like a fool…

Qiuya’s wedding, and he was here singing and dancing.

Tong Liang’s expression was unsightly. Do you think Jiang Yun looked any better?

She was equally shocked, staring at Gu Yin and Xia Xiangsi. Even though she had some doubts about Gu Yin’s earlier statements, she never imagined that Gu Yin actually knew Xia Xiangsi!

In short, Gu Yin’s two “old classmates,” who were so certain of their assumptions, were completely speechless.

Gu Yin was quite satisfied with their expressions. He chuckled, smiled at Xia Xiangsi and said, “Sorry, sorry, ran into classmates, chatted for a bit. You go back first, I’ll be right there.”

His expression was natural, his tone relaxed, and for some reason, Tong Liang and Jiang Yun seemed to hear a hint of… intimacy in his tone.

It was as if his relationship with Xia Xiangsi was unusual.

And it seemed… it really was unusual!

Perhaps from shock, perhaps from disbelief, the two forgot that their mouths were for more than just eating…

The short-haired girl standing before them gave them a look, perhaps out of politeness, even though she was cold towards Gu Yin who had kept her waiting, she still politely nodded to Tong Liang and Jiang Yun, slightly pursing her lips, revealing a polite smile.

The dim lighting of the Japanese restaurant fell on the girl’s exquisite face. Even a slight smile seemed like the warmest sunshine in winter, instantly illuminating the hearts of the onlookers.

While she greeted them, Xia Xiangsi didn’t invite them to dinner. The girl raised her slender, fair hand and gently adjusted her fluffy hair, then said to Gu Yin, “Then hurry up, I’ll order first.”

“Okay, you order first, don’t worry about me,” Gu Yin casually replied.

“Don’t worry about you?” Xia Xiangsi slightly frowned, “Don’t you have dietary restrictions, you don’t eat sashimi, right? Aren’t you afraid I’ll order all sashimi?”

“Haha…” Gu Yin laughed, “Since you say that, you definitely won’t.”

“You…” Xia Xiangsi couldn’t help but shake her head at his words, and after giving Tong Liang and Jiang Yun another greeting-like glance, she turned and went back.

The girl’s back gradually disappeared behind the beaded curtain of the small compartment, but her appearance and demeanor were still imprinted in Tong Liang and Jiang Yun’s minds.

Recalling Xia Xiangsi and Gu Yin’s “flirty” conversation, both Tong Liang and Jiang Yun felt like they were “dreaming.”

Jiang Yun even secretly reached out and pinched Tong Liang’s leg hard…

“Ouch!” Tong Liang gasped, “Why did you pinch me?!”

“Does it hurt?” Jiang Yun’s answer was irrelevant.

“Of course it hurts!” Tong Liang’s mouth twitched.

“It’s not a dream…” Jiang Yun looked dazed, staring at Gu Yin for a long time, opening her mouth several times, but failed to utter a complete sentence.

She didn’t know where to begin asking!

“Okay, you guys eat first.” Gu Yin clapped his hands, finished with the show, “People are waiting for me, I’ll go over there.”

“Ah, okay…” Tong Liang nodded blankly, subconsciously standing up, as if seeing off a superior, he wanted to see Gu Yin off.

“No, no, no need to see me off, you guys eat.” Gu Yin cooperated with Tong Liang’s actions like a superior.

Under Tong Liang’s polite farewell, he finally escaped this maelstrom…

He left, but Tong Liang and Jiang Yun’s moods were still like turbulent waves!

“No, what’s up with Gu Yin?” Tong Liang scratched his head, “Didn’t he say he was a driving instructor back home? How could a driving instructor know a female celebrity?”

If being a driving instructor could get him close to female celebrities, he would quit his job and become a driving instructor too!

“Idiot.” Jiang Yun mercilessly criticized him, “He’s been keeping a low profile from the beginning. It’s only you, with a little bit of money from your family, showing off to everyone, not knowing your place…”

“I…” Tong Liang was speechless. He wanted to retort, but recalling the scene where Gu Yin had slapped him in the face, he couldn’t say anything.

Thinking back, the way he had acted so superior in front of Gu Yin seemed rather presumptuous.

Looking at Gu Yin walking into the compartment to rejoin Xia Xiangsi, recalling how Gu Yin hadn’t said anything about Tong Liang’s earlier show-off, Jiang Yun couldn’t help but think:

“Gu Yin truly doesn’t show his hand…”
