Chapter 1043 Why Didn’t He Treat Qiao Mianmian Better Before?

"I promise, she won't dare to fight back."

Qiao Mianmian stared at him blankly, and after a long while, she asked in confusion: "Mr. Gong, what are you doing..."

She never expected it.

Gong Zeli would appear at this time.

Moreover, he helped her slap the woman.

Is he standing up for her?

However, their relationship is not good enough for her to want him to stand up for her.

Thinking of the rumors about them on the Internet, Qiao Mianmian frowned.

She and Gong Zeli had just had a scandal.

If someone took a picture of the scene just now and knew that Gong Zeli stood up for her, I'm afraid there would be new scandals.

By then, it would be difficult to clarify.

If it was a scandal once, it was also a scandal twice, and it would still be a scandal three or four times.

Especially since Gong Zeli was not a person who liked to meddle in other people's business.

If it had nothing to do with her, would he stand up for her again and again?

Even she herself couldn't explain it, let alone others.

Qiao Mianmian was not sure if the people around her recognized her.

The woman just now deliberately shouted her name loudly, and she didn't know if anyone had recognized her.

"Even if it's because of my relationship with Asi, I can't let others bully you." Meeting her doubtful eyes, Gong Zeli's eyes flashed, and for a moment he felt a little guilty.

He didn't dare to look at her again.

He was afraid that she would see through his mind.

So, he used his relationship with Mo Yesi as a shield.

But he knew best why he helped her.

He helped her, and it had nothing to do with Mo Yesi.

He helped her because of the secret in his heart that could not be told.

The secret that only he could know.

Qiao Mianmian was stunned for a few seconds, and the doubts in her eyes gradually dissipated.

That's right.

Although she and Gong Zeli didn't have much friendship, he and Mo Yesi were good brothers after all.

Seeing his brother's wife being bullied, he couldn't just pretend not to see it and do nothing.

Even though, he didn't like her.

At this time, he still had to stand up and help.

"Thank you, Mr. Gong." Qiao Mianmian wanted to return the slap, but since Gong Zeli had already helped her return it, she didn't plan to slap her again.

Moreover, the woman was already trembling with fear from Gong Zeli.

When she said thank you, Gong Zeli frowned.

Her polite and somewhat distant attitude made him feel very uncomfortable.

He could feel that she was deliberately keeping a distance from him.

Was it because of the rumors about them on the Internet?

Or was it because he had treated her too badly before, leaving a very bad impression in her heart, so she didn't want to get too close to him?

No matter what the reason was, it was enough to make Gong Zeli upset.

He regretted it now.

Why didn't he treat Qiao Mianmian better before?

It would be fine if he was not good, but he treated her so badly...

Now he knew all the truth and wanted to treat her well and make up for her, but it seemed that there was no chance.

Even wanting to be ordinary friends with her is so difficult.

"Nothing to thank you for." Gong Zeli felt uncomfortable and a little depressed. He looked around and asked casually, "Where is Asi? Isn't he with you?"

"Well, I had dinner with a friend. He just finished dinner and he is coming to pick me up now. He should be here soon."
