The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 635

Chapter 635: Chapter 631: A Personal Trip This Afternoon

"Jiaojiao, make yourself at home."

Zhu Wanqi led Gu Jiaojiao into the house and gestured to a nearby sofa chair for her to sit down.

The two of them sat down and exchanged a look—one was calm, the other awkward.

Gu Jiaojiao was the calm one.

Although she had come to ask Zhu Wanqi for help, she was only trying her luck. If it really didn’t work out, she would just let it go.

Zhu Wanqi was the awkward one.

Just yesterday, Zhang Tianming had told her not to approach Leng Yuan.

Besides, Lu Yuanbin’s situation was rather thorny, and there was truly nothing she could do to help.

That was why when they looked at each other, Zhu Wanqi was both awkward and sheepish.

Gu Jiaojiao was the one who had helped her with her skin, and now that Jiaojiao had finally asked for a favor, she couldn’t help in the slightest.

Gu Jiaojiao didn’t read too much into it. She turned, about to take out the face masks she had brought, but Zhu Wanqi suddenly stood up. "Let me go wash some fruit for you."

Before Gu Jiaojiao could say anything to stop her, Zhu Wanqi had already disappeared into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Zhu Wanqi took her time washing the fruit and then poured two glasses of water.

When she couldn’t stall any longer, she finally went back out.

Gu Jiaojiao had already placed the face masks on the table. Ordinarily, Zhu Wanqi would have been ecstatic to see them, but thinking of the favor Gu Jiaojiao was about to ask, she couldn’t feel happy at all.

However, Zhu Wanqi wasn’t one to beat around the bush. She took two sips of water and decided to address the issue head-on.

"Jiaojiao, I know why you’re here, but I really can’t do anything about this."

Gu Jiaojiao was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Zhu Wanqi to know why she had come. Still, she felt a pang of disappointment at such a direct refusal.

She had been about eighty percent confident, so she was surprised to be turned down before she could even say anything.
