The Billionaire's Priceless Darling: 33 Days of the CEO's Pursuit - Chapter 219 - I'm Not Just Evil in Thought 4

His arm circled her waist. Gu Xiaoai turned her head in silence, gazing out at the city’s nightscape-bustling and lively. Couples with roses in hand walked together along the street, leaning into each other, whispering from time to time, sometimes breaking into laughter together…

That was what real couples looked like.

Not like them-two people sitting so close, yet with entirely different thoughts.

A mistress and her financial backer could never be called a couple, for what tied them together was money, not hearts or feelings, only a cold and transactional relationship.

“Not just handsome, he’s rich! Look at what they’re wearing-it’s all from E.S I couldn’t afford even a single sock from that brand if I sold my whole family!”

“E.S? Ugh, I hate it when people flaunt their wealth. It’s the worst.”

“Flaunting both wealth and looks… What kind of crazy luck does that woman have?!”

“At least she’s prettier than you… Look at her aura, the way she walks-can you compare?”
