Chapter 304 What a coincidence

There was a row of children standing in the reception room.

Seeing them coming, he said in a childish voice: "Welcome everyone!"

One or two of them were dark, skinny and skinny.

He looked timid and nervous.

He was wearing clothes that looked like new clothes with the tags just cut off.

I don’t know if they have new clothes to wear, and I don’t know how much of the donated money will actually go into the pockets of these children.

And now.

They have to be dragged out and exposed in front of the camera to show their financial difficulties and low status.

To contrast the "good intentions" of the sponsors.

It's all a show.

No wonder Gu Zhou thought this would be redundant.

Just thought so.

Wang Yuanling was slightly stunned.

Just fine.

Why did I think of him?

She clasped her hands in front of her, waiting aside, watching the two elders pass by the group of children, receive their handwritten thank-you letters, and encourage them with kind eyes: study hard, and say: they will read these letters carefully and write back.

As soon as this fake, ad hoc show is over.

Rushing to the luxurious banquet specially prepared by the organizer.

Wang Yuanling finally escaped.

I returned alone to the trash can at the corner of the reception room door.

She bent down and picked up the letters from the trash can that Old Lady Wang had quietly thrown away because they were disgustingly dirty. She patted the stains on the surface, put all the letters into a plastic bag, and was about to put it in her bag and then go wash her hands.

I noticed something out of the corner of my eye.

Her heart was pounding and she looked back immediately.

Gu Zhou leaned against the railing, his crisp suit was wrinkled, and his half-rolled cuffs revealed his forearms with blue veins.

He twirled his lighter nonchalantly, the corners of his lips twitching slightly as his voice drifted over with the breeze: "What a coincidence, Mr. Ling."

Her brain froze for a few seconds.

I didn't expect him to appear here at all.

Didn’t Special Assistant Qin say he wouldn’t come?

But he found out that it was him.

Not the kids who wrote those letters themselves.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

He adjusted his expression as quickly as possible, a polite smile on his face: "Boss Gu, why are you here too?"

Gu Zhou stood up and suddenly put some distance between his body and the railing.

He walked lazily, stepping on the sunlight reflected on the ground.

Until he stood in front of her, blocking out the light in front of her eyes, his dark eyes lazily lowered, and he pursed his lips: "Why, I can't come?"

She smiled softly, her face gentle. "Of course not. I just heard from Special Assistant Qin that you never attend meetings, so I was a little surprised to see Mr. Gu. Sorry, I lost my composure."

He glanced lazily at the pile of letters in her hands and said lazily, "If this is something I need to apologize for, then the scope of my apology should be larger than the earth."

Wang Yuanling quickly put the letter into her bag, fearing that he would ask her why she was picking up trash the next second.

She spread her hands, forcibly diverting his attention, and squinted her eyes: "Mr. Gu, thanks to you, my hands are much better now. Thank you."

Gu Zhoulian saw that her palm had returned to its normal pink color, raised his eyebrows, and reached out to hold it.

Wang Yuanling was caught off guard and his hands were held.

Her eyes were filled with surprise: "Boss Gu, my hand is not yet..."

She wanted to say she hadn't washed it yet.

But it came to an abrupt end.

Because I was worried that he would ask, what trash did you just pick up?

Gu Zhou seemed to know what she was going to say, and he exerted a little more strength without paying much attention.

Although it is much better.

But it still hurts a bit when being held so tightly.

Her brows were slightly furrowed.

Gu Zhou then let go of his hand, his eyes cold and indifferent: "Isn't Mr. Ling a little too confident? I don't think he's much better."

Wang Yuanling choked.

Meeting his almost 'contemptuous' gaze.

After a few struggles in her mind, she said with a hint of dissatisfaction, "I can already lift heavy objects."

It’s better not to say it.

One theory.

She felt that Gu Zhou's gaze towards her was getting colder and colder.

She swallowed softly, feeling inexplicably weak. "I've been spraying the medicine on time, and it's much more effective than the medicine I usually use. So, Mr. Gu, please rest assured. I'll be back to 'health' soon."

What does it mean to be much better than the usual medicine?

Is she often beaten?

Gu Zhou's dark eyes flashed with deep meaning without any expression, and he mocked: "Then I will wait and see."

Wang Yuanling opened her lips slightly, trying her best to prove that she was really healthy and told him not to worry about it.

The organizer's enthusiastic voice came from the front: "Hey, Mr. Gu, you're here! Welcome, welcome."

Wang Yuanling pursed his lips, which had just been opened.

Automatically took a step back.

Leave space for the organizer to get closer to Gu Zhou.

Gu Zhou glanced at her with his dark eyes, then looked back at the organizer who was smiling and reaching out to shake his hand. "Long time no see."

He reached out to shake hands with it, but within three seconds, he let go.

Organizer: "Yes, it's been a while! You are so busy, I thought you wouldn't be able to attend our thank-you party this year."

Wang Yuanling stood aside, watching them chat with a polite smile.

But I don't want to.

As soon as Gu Zhou opened his mouth, he turned the topic to her.

He drawled, "My partner, Mr. Ling, took time out of his busy schedule to come, so how could I not come?"

Wang Yuanling was surprised to meet his playful gaze: "?"

The organizer then quickly followed his gaze and looked at Wang Yuanling, who had been ignored since the two elders appeared, and jokingly said, "Then I have to thank Mr. Ling for helping me invite Mr. Gu, this great Buddha."

Wang Yuanling put her arms behind her back, intertwined her fingers, and smiled awkwardly: "You're joking."

The organizer said: "Mr. Gu, since you are here, I will call the cameraman over. Since it is a rare visit for you, I will definitely ask them to take more photos of you and promote you vigorously."

He had just finished speaking.

Gu Zhou looked lazy and said, "Let's talk about it later. I'm hungry. I rushed here without having breakfast. Can I eat now?"

The organizer was stunned for two seconds, then quickly said, "Oh, of course! They've all moved to the banquet, so I'll take you there right away."

Gu Zhou looked at Wang Yuanling: "Do you know where it is?"

Wang Yuanling was confused and didn't understand why he suddenly asked this.

But he still replied in a gentle voice: "I know."

Gu Zhou glanced lazily back at the organizer: "Then I won't bother you to lead the way. I still have work to discuss with Ms. Ling. She will take me there later."

The host glanced between them and said with a smile, "Well, you two go ahead and do your work. I'll go to the banquet first."

Gu Zhou responded indifferently: "Yeah."

Wait until the organizer's back disappears from sight.

Wang Yuanling was puzzled: "Boss Gu, what kind of work do you want to discuss with me?"

Gu Zhou pursed his lips: "Can't you hear the excuse? Do you like taking those hypocritical photos?"

Wang Yuanling's expression froze.

Then he asked casually, "Did you just eat at the banquet?"

Wang Yuanling shook his head: "Not yet, I'm just coming out for a while, but I have to go back."

Gu Zhou spoke slowly and lazily, "Even without looking, I know it's a commonplace luxurious meal. I have no appetite at all."

Wang Yuanling paused, pondering his words, and asked tentatively, "Mr. Gu, do you want to go out for dinner?"

He didn't respond directly, but asked: "Are you not tired of eating such delicious food?"

She understood.

He not only wants to go out to eat.

Also, take her along.

What is this for?

So that I could use her as an excuse when asked where I was going?

Just like I replied to the organizer just now, 'they have work' to discuss.

We talked so much that we forgot to eat and sleep, and even forgot to eat...

This reason is indeed quite sufficient and does not arouse any doubt.

She pursed her lips slightly, her eyes filled with hesitation. "My grandparents are here. They're both at the banquet."

Gu Zhou sneered: "Why? You still have to feed your grandparents?"

Wang Yuanling choked slightly.

How she feels.

When mentioning the two elders.

His reaction was particularly cold?
