Chapter 730 Asking for a snub

Looking at Gu Manman’s face, Jiang Jingcheng couldn’t help shivering when he felt that it was about to freeze. Otherwise, how would there be a saying that a woman’s heart was like a needle at the bottom of the sea? The change in Gu Manman’s attitude during this period had perfectly confirmed this saying.

In the past, she had greeted him with a smile every day and used to confess her love and speak sweetly to him. But now, her attitude had changed so quickly that he didn’t even know when he had offended her.

To think that he had done so many things for her. To keep her in the studio, he had put in a lot of effort. However, judging from the way she looked, it seemed that she was not grateful at all.

It was her own business whether she appreciated his kindness or not. As he had done what he should do, he had a clear conscience. Although her attitude made him upset, he suppressed the displeasure in his heart and handed the document he had prepared to her.

Jiang Jingcheng was feeling a little proud in his heart. Although Gu Manman was heartless, what he had done before was enough to uphold the code of friendship. Now, he was imagining her ecstatic look after she flipped through the document he had prepared.

Gu Manman was puzzled. “What’s he up to now? Why is he being so secretive? What does he want to do?”

Although Gu Manman was suspicious, she still took the document handed over by Jiang Jingcheng. When she took it and flipped through it, her face immediately changed.

Jiang Jingcheng had been paying close attention to the changes in the look on her face. Now that he saw that her expression had changed so thoroughly, the pride in his heart could not help expanding to his face. He could not help expressing his innermost thoughts through his expression.

Gu Manman was fuming with anger. “What exactly does Jiang Jingcheng want to do with this? Could it be that he just can’t bear to see me in a good state?” Looking at Jiang Jingcheng’s face, Gu Manman wanted to punch him. However, she knew very well that she couldn’t do that, but she just couldn’t hold back her anger.

She had never suffered so much wrong ever since she was a child. This time, she suffered it all from Jiang Jingcheng.

She felt a little sad in her heart. Was it because she liked him that he felt free to trample on her sincerity? In her eyes, what he had done now was no longer as simple as ruining her sincerity. She regarded what he had done as a complete insult to her character.

This was something that she could not accept. If this matter were to come to an end like this, she would look down on herself.

“So what do you mean with this?”

Gu Manman felt utterly furious. Her usually fair and clean cheeks were now flushed red with anger. She glared at Jiang Jingcheng angrily and questioned him from the bottom of her heart. She had wanted to scold him, but when the words came to the tip of her tongue, she couldn’t bear to say them.

“What do I mean? This is for you. Take a good look at it.”

Jiang Jingcheng found it strange. “Isn’t Gu Manman usually mischievous? Why can’t she tell what I mean? Could it be that she’s too excited that she doesn’t even know what I mean?” Jiang Jingcheng couldn’t help feeling amused and thought that Gu Manman looked a little cute while she acted this way.

“No need!”

Gu Manman refused what he offered. Her attitude was even worse than before. She pointed at him, her lips trembling, but she couldn’t say a complete word. As Jiang Jingcheng talked, he looked up from her trembling fingers and saw that her face had turned red with anger, and there seemed to be tears on her long eyelashes.

No matter how stupid he could be, he had now realized that something was wrong. “What’s wrong with Gu Manman? It’s like she has eaten some gunpowder. What did I do?” Thinking about it carefully, Jiang Jingcheng couldn’t remember at all what he had done that would have made Gu Manman dissatisfied.

He had doubted her ability before, but it was clear that she was a newcomer in the workplace. Was it inappropriate for him to suspect her? His moderate doubts were also to encourage her to improve. Was it really because of this matter that she had argued with him?

He felt that it was strange, but whoever got scolded for no reason would not be in a good mood. Especially in this period, he had been staying up all night to come up with this design work for Gu Manman. It could really be said that he worked day and night. He felt that he had made a lot of effort for her.

But what Gu Manman was doing right now truly upset him. He did not expect her to be grateful. He had helped her so much, but she did not thank him and even got furious with him. What was she trying to do now?

Thinking of that, his face suddenly darkened. From beginning to end, he did not even say a word, but his expression grew colder and colder. Was she expressing her dissatisfaction with him by acting like this?

Could it be that she was still brooding over the fact that he had doubted her ability before? He felt unconvinced. Not to mention Gu Manman, if it were anyone else, he would question them whenever he should. He would never shut his mouth because of any interpersonal relationships.

Although he had doubted Gu Manman’s ability before, on the one hand, he was afraid that she would ruin the studio and make everyone suffer with her, on the other hand, he was actually doing this for her own good. If she ruined such an important thing as a newcomer who had just entered the industry, what would others think of her?

If she did it, it would make it impossible for her to establish herself in the entire industry. However, her current behavior made him feel that his sincerity had been trampled hard.

He also felt that it was ridiculous. He had finally changed his opinion of Gu Manman and felt that there were still quite some good qualities in her. However, she had done such a thing as making a scene with him. She really couldn’t change her temper. Jiang Jingcheng’s face suddenly became cold.

“Since she doesn’t know what is good for her, why do I have to suck up to her? Won’t it be asking for a snub?”

Jiang Jingcheng took back the document from Gu Manman’s hand and looked at her eyes coldly. Then, he left without looking back.

Of course, she did not miss his final glance. She got the disappointment and indifference in his eyes. For a moment, she felt a little wronged. It was him who thought that she had messed up this matter and came to mock her. Why did he make it seem as if she was the one in the wrong?
