Chapter 234 I Don’t Think So

Wang Yuanling's consciousness became increasingly confused by the alcohol.

Gu Zhou???

"Mr. Gu...why are you in my car?"

Gu Zhou raised the corner of his lip and said, "Go down and check the license plate."

Wang Yuanling's breathing stagnated.

Finally reacted.

I got on the wrong bus.

Her delicate features were shrouded in embarrassment. "Sorry, Mr. Gu, I, our cars are the same, so I was mistaken."

Gu Zhou smiled: "Really? What a coincidence."

She jumped on tiptoe to reach her shoes in a panic.

But only one was reached.

Where's the other one?!

She lowered her head to look for her shoes, her long hair hanging down. She lifted it behind her shoulder with one hand and looked around anxiously: "Excuse me, Mr. Gu, have you seen my shoes?"

Gu Zhou glanced at the stiletto heel that was now lying on the inside of his leg and hit his calf: "No."

Wang Yuanling was even more embarrassed: "Sorry, I'll look for it again."

She searched everywhere.

But it just isn’t there!

While she was frantically looking for her shoes.

Gu Zhou looked at her embarrassment calmly and nonchalantly.

Wang Yuanling had never been so embarrassed in his life.

Gu Zhou glanced at her, biting her lips nervously and her ears red as if dripping blood.

I feel like playing.

"Can't find it?"

Wang Yuanling felt his face burning: "I didn't find it..."

He raised his eyebrows and said lazily, "What should I do? I have something urgent to do and I don't have time to ask you to find shoes."

Wang Yuanling's skin was burning hot all over. "Sorry, I won't look for you anymore. You can go and do your work first."

She got out of the car on her own accord.

But that barefoot foot couldn’t be left hanging in the air, nor could it be left down.

Suddenly stepping on the other shoe.

Gu Zhou glanced at her dazzlingly white instep, the corners of his lips curled up even more, and he said insincerely, "I'm sorry, President Ling."

Wang Yuanling forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry for wasting your time."

Gu Zhou said casually, "Goodbye."

Wang Yuanling suppressed his inner embarrassment and tried his best to smile: "Goodbye..."

The car door closed automatically.

Isolating the people inside.

But the curve of her lips remained unchanged as she watched the rear end of Gu Zhou's car disappear from her sight.

She was busy searching everywhere.

Just then I saw the car in the corner, which was exactly the same model and color as Gu Zhou's.

She was disheveled in the wind.

He quickly lifted his feet back and jumped forward on one foot with great effort.

She had drunk some wine and was feeling a little dizzy.

I was so breathless after jumping these few steps.

Seeing that he was only a few steps away, he jumped to the parking lot.

Suddenly, there was the sound of an accelerator from behind.

She turned her head blankly.

I was blinded by the bright headlights.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and saw the car coming through the slit. It was Gu Zhou's car.

Followed by the sound of brakes.

The electric door slowly opened.

Gu Zhou's lazy face appeared again.

The next second, her stilettos were thrown to her feet.

"My shoes?"

Did he find it?

She looked up, thinking that Gu Zhou was kind enough to return the shoes, and was about to thank him.

But she suddenly caught the playful glint in his eyes: "Boss Ling has a strong jumping ability."

Wang Yuanling was stunned, and his slow brain finally reacted.

She frowned slightly, and her gentle face was filled with anger.

Look at her reaction.

The problem has been discovered.

Gu Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly and interrupted her with a quiet tone: "No thanks."

The door closed automatically again.

The car sped away.

Wang Yuanling took a breath of exhaust gas.

Later she realized that she had been teased, and the humiliation made her chest rise and fall slightly.

He was so angry that he cursed at the rear end of the car: "You bastard!"

From the very beginning, the man was inexplicably unfriendly to her, taking advantage of her eloquence.

He managed to get his place back.

What a bad man with a bad character!

In the nanny car.

Gu Zhou stared through the rearview mirror at the figure that was getting smaller as the distance got closer.

What didn't diminish was the resentment that didn't dissipate at all even from a distance.

He curled his lower lip idly and asked Assistant Qin, who was also looking in the rearview mirror, slowly: "Is she scolding me?"

Qin Tezhu was caught off guard by the question.

He quickly looked away.

Consider: "Uh... probably not."

Gu Zhou said lazily: "Really? Why does the shape of his mouth make it seem like he's calling me a bitch?"

Special Assistant Qin didn't dare to say a word.

After a long while, he finally said, "Should be, it shouldn't be. This lady is known for her gentleness and elegance. She shouldn't curse."

"Gentle and elegant?" Gu Zhou chewed on these four words.

Thinking of how she looked gloating and trying hard to hold back her laughter when she saw me choking.

And just now, when he realized that he had tricked him, he reacted like an angry little beast, wanting to pounce on him and bite him.

He scoffed, saying meaningfully, "I don't think so."

-

When Mu Yuan woke up, it was already dark.

She quickly threw back the quilt and ran to the wardrobe to pick out clothes.

I wanted to take a rest.

Unexpectedly, I slept from the afternoon to the night.

Zhao Keqiong should have woken up, and she had to go back to take care of her.

She was taking out a shirt.

There was the sound of a doorknob being opened behind me.

She stopped moving and turned her head to look.

It was Huo Min, holding a glass of juice.

The moment he looked at her, tenderness spread in his eyes: "Awake?"

Mu Yuan held the shirt in her arms: "Well, I just woke up, I'll change clothes and go back to the hospital."

Huo Min walked over, raised his hand, and took the shirt from her hand.

as a replacement.

He stuffed the juice into her hand.

"Don't go over tonight. Mom wants you to rest at home. Drink this freshly squeezed juice."

Mu Yuan gripped the cup tightly, frowning slightly: "No, how can I leave my mother without anyone to take care of her?"

"Don't worry, there are nurses."

Mu Yuan's lips moved, obviously still disagreeing.

Huo Min lowered his head helplessly and clicked on the voice message sent by Zhao Keqiong: [Ah Min, let Yuanyuan get a good night's sleep at home. You don't have to come over to Mom's tonight. Running back and forth is really tiring. I see Yuanyuan doesn't look well today. Maybe she was scared enough by me yesterday and didn't sleep well. You don't have to come over. Just stay with her and rest.]

He said calmly: "Mom also asked you to rest at home."

Mu Yuan hesitated: "But I'm worried."

"Come." Huo Min hugged her and led her to the bed.

Then he gently held her shoulders and pushed her to sit on the edge of the bed.

He then half-covered his lower body, his dark eyes fixed on her.

Mu Yuan was surprised: "What's wrong?"

Huo Min placed his warm palm against her face, and his slightly rough thumb stroked the area under her slightly blue eyes. "You have dark circles under your eyes, why don't you get some rest? You are not allowed to go anywhere except home tonight."

"I'm fine. I slept for a long time in the afternoon." Mu Yuan pulled down his hand and held it between her hands, her almond eyes still showing hesitation.

Seeing this, Huo Min's eyes darkened and he kissed her.

He kissed me too suddenly.

It drove away all the thoughts in Mu Yuan's mind.

The juice on my hands almost spilled.

She was so frightened that she quickly gripped the cup tightly and shrank her neck back, "Don't, the juice is sweet and it will be hard to deal with if it spills."

She grabbed the fabric on his shoulders and applied a little force.

He tore open his collar, revealing the small wound where she had bitten him.

Mu Yuan's eyes were stunned.

Huo Min followed her gaze downwards, his thin lips curled slightly as he consoled her: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt much."

Of course Mu Yuan didn't believe it.

She bit herself, how could she not know how serious it was?

After all, I was too angry at that time and bit too hard.

She knelt up and gently rubbed circles around his wound with her slender fingertips, feeling regretful. "Let me apply the medicine again. You just washed off the medicine from the hospital."

Huo Min stared at the worry on her cold face, his heart boiling, and he couldn't help but tilt his head and kiss her soft lips.

After kissing for so long, Mu Yuan's lips felt a little sore, and then they were let go.

The juice in her hand was taken away by Huo Min at some point and placed on the bedside table.

She was held in his arms.

Feel his vigorous heartbeat.

Huo Min gently rubbed her shoulders, lowered his head and kissed her, then leaned back and looked at her with lowered eyes: "There is a bidding meeting tomorrow, I have to attend, so I can't have lunch with you."

Mu Yuan's eyes moved slightly, curious: "Bidding meeting?"

Huo Min's dark eyes flickered, and his voice was filled with hope. "Yes, it's the piece of land that Wang Yaozu and I competed for before. The bid will be finalized tomorrow. Do you want to go and take a look?"
