As She Wished

Synopsis:

Fu Jing was brought to a bar by her good friend to look for some romantic luck.

When she walked in, amid the shifting light and shadows, she saw a beautiful woman sitting by the window. Her aura was cool and aloof, and she held a glass of whiskey as if she might drink it—or might not. Her features were stunning.

—The legendary face of the place, Gu Qingci.

With just one look, Fu Jing’s heart skipped a beat. She began asking around everywhere about how to pursue her.

She heard that the beauty liked sweet, adorable girls, so she smiled sweetly, protected her at every turn, and practically threw herself into her arms.

She heard that the beauty liked gifts, so she swiped her little cards until presents piled up all over the booth.

Later… it seemed like the pursuit was going pretty well?

The beauty smiled whenever she saw her.

Fu Jing was taken to a dinner party. Her mother pulled her over to greet an investment tycoon she had only managed to connect with after much effort.

“This is your Auntie Gu. She bought you toys when you were little. Do you remember?”

Fu Jing looked as if she had been struck by five bolts of lightning.

She did not call out for a long time. Her mother anxiously tried to smooth things over from the side. “Oh dear, this child has been slow since she was young!”

But the woman reached out and pinched Fu Jing’s cheek. The cold indifference she had worn all night suddenly vanished, and she smiled with deeper meaning.

“It’s fine. I don’t think she’s slow. She’s quite cute.”

Fu Jing: “……………”

She ended this failed pursuit, waved the white flag, and prepared to retreat.

This woman was far too scheming. Sure enough, she was a cold moon Fu Jing could never reach, even if she climbed a ladder to the heavens.

But why…

After Fu Jing kept her distance, Gu Qingci moved into her home under the excuse of staying temporarily.

When Fu Jing studied, Gu Qingci made her late-night snacks. When Fu Jing published a paper, Gu Qingci opened a bottle of red wine to celebrate.

When Gu Qingci was showering, Fu Jing blushed and handed her clothes through the crack of the door.

But Gu Qingci hooked her wrist and refused to let her leave, her tone aggrieved.

“Kid, why aren’t you saying you’ll pursue me anymore?”

#How am I supposed to pursue you? You’re richer than my whole family combined.#
#I wanted to flirt with you, but you turned out to be my Auntie Gu…#

Gu Qingci’s perspective:

#You were so close to winning me over, and now you want to pat your butt and leave?#
#Let’s see where you think you’re going.#

A story about a wealthy, talented young physics major who wanted to use money to flirt with a girl, only to accidentally pursue a true rich woman.
