Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?
Chapter 178 Ice Cream

Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Ice Cream

Huishi has its own media company, they know how to control the narrative. Even if Gu Jiahui exposes them and the two families start a public opinion war, Gu Jiahui might not win.

After all, there are too many secrets in these mansions; no one’s household is perfectly clean. If they really fight, both will suffer.

"Alright."

After sending the message, she put down her phone. Not long after, she received a message from Gu Shiting.

"I know where the ice cream shop you mentioned is, let’s go after school." Gu Shiting said.

During noon, Sheng Tang shared a post on her Moments, being forced by Jiang Baocu because the post was written by Jiang Baocu herself.

Jiang Baocu might be bored lately; she’s hooked up with a marketing company on Weibo and now started writing for a public account.

She has quite a talent for this; every article she writes is good, and the readership is quite decent.

Of course, she would also pressure her close classmates to help share her posts, like Sheng Tang.

"That place..." Sheng Tang hesitated for a moment.

She’s not really keen on eating ice cream, especially since it’s so cold now.

Gu Shiting immediately followed up with another message: "Is that okay?"

He really wanted to stick close to Sheng Tang after school.

From his words, Sheng Tang could tell how much he anticipated it. Reluctant to disappoint him, she agreed: "Okay, let’s go together."

When Gu Shiting put down his phone, a smile appeared on his lips, looking very happy.

But upon arriving at the ice cream shop, they found it unusually crowded.

Gu Shiting and Sheng Tang sat in the car, looking at the long queue, both a bit surprised.

"...I heard this shop bought a lot of marketing; it’s probably just popular these days." Sheng Tang said, "Maybe there will be fewer people in a few days. Who would come here every day just for desserts?"

Gu Shiting responded with a hum.

Sheng Tang then asked: "Shall we go home?"

But he really wanted to treat Sheng Tang.

He thought Sheng Tang really wanted it. Since she wanted it, he should naturally fulfill her wish.

"I’ll go queue." Gu Shiting said.

Sheng Tang: "..."

The young master is most afraid of crowds.

Such a long line, he didn’t hesitate to say he’d queue, really showing his dedication.

Sheng Tang held him back: "I’ll join you, you stand in front of me, okay?"

He could keep some distance from the person in front, while Sheng Tang stayed behind him to prevent anyone from bumping into him.

This should be a bit better, right?

She didn’t refuse his offer either because boys do have their pride.

"Sure." Gu Shiting agreed.

They went to queue.

The line was indeed very long, but it wasn’t noisy; many people were just looking at their phones, and occasionally someone spoke in a low voice.

They queued for a full twenty minutes before it was their turn.

Then, Sheng Tang ordered two bowls of ice cream, and together they took them back to the car to eat.

While Sheng Tang was eating, Gu Shiting sat quietly beside her.

They talked as Sheng Tang ate.

When she was almost finished, the young master handed his bowl over: "For you."

Sheng Tang: "You eat, I’ve already had one bowl."

"I worried you might not have enough."

Sheng Tang: "Such a big bowl, how could it not be enough? Are you trying to feed a pig, young master?"

Gu Shiting chuckled softly.

He’s not particularly fond of sweets, and seeing Sheng Tang genuinely didn’t want it, he took a couple of bites and put it down.

He simply enjoyed the time spent with Sheng Tang.

During the queuing, he hardly noticed the people around him, only cared about Sheng Tang. He felt a bit anxious but didn’t have the urge to flee.

With Sheng Tang by his side, he gradually got used to having someone nearby, alleviating his social anxiety a bit.

"Tangtang, I have something I want to ask you." Gu Shiting said while sending Sheng Tang home.

"What’s up?"
