As She Wished (GL)

Synopsis:

Fu Jing was taken to a bar by her good friend to find romance.

Inside, the lights flickered, shifting between bright and dim.

She saw a stunning woman with a cool demeanor sitting by the window, holding a glass of whiskey, seemingly contemplating whether to drink it. Her features were exquisite.

—The legendary “face of the establishment,” Gu Qingci.

At just one glance, Fu Jing’s heart fluttered. She inquired everywhere about how to pursue her.

She heard the beauty liked amiable people, so Fu Jing maintained a sweet smile, was attentive, and threw herself into the pursuit.

She heard the beauty liked gifts, so her credit cards were swiped until gifts piled up in the booth.

Later… it seemed the pursuit was going pretty well?

The beauty would smile as soon as she saw her.

Fu Jing was taken to a dinner party. Her mother pulled her over to greet a powerful investor whom she had gone to great lengths to connect with.

“This is your Aunt Gu. She bought you toys when you were little, do you remember?”

Fu Jing’s expression was utterly thunderstruck.

She hesitated to greet her. Her mother anxiously tried to smooth things over, “Oh, this child has always been a bit slow!”

But the woman reached out and pinched her cheek. Her usual cold demeanor from the entire evening suddenly vanished, and she smiled meaningfully, “It’s fine, I don’t think she’s slow at all. She’s quite cute.”

Fu Jing: “……………”

She ended this failed pursuit, waving a white flag, ready to retreat.

This woman was too cunning; she was indeed a cold moon that Fu Jing could never reach, even by climbing a ladder to heaven.

But why… after she distanced herself, Gu Qingci moved into her house under the pretense of a temporary stay?

Gu Qingci made supper when Fu Jing was studying, and opened red wine to celebrate when Fu Jing published a paper.

When Fu Jing was showering, she blushingly handed clothes through the crack in the door,

only to have her wrist grabbed, preventing her from leaving. Gu Qingci’s tone was aggrieved:

“Kid, why aren’t you saying you’re going to pursue me anymore?”

#How can I pursue you when you’re richer than my entire family combined?# #I wanted to hook up with you, but you’re my Auntie Gu…#

From Gu Qingci’s perspective: #You’re almost caught, and you want to just walk away?# #Let’s see where you go.#

This is a story about a talented rich second-generation woman from the physics department who tried to flirt with someone using money, only to accidentally pursue a truly wealthy woman.
