Chapter 377 Impossible

[Impossible, there is no way she could possibly...] A wave of bitterness and shock surged in Gu Zhou's heart.

She has always been moderate.

Giving red roses is an exaggerated act that is unlike her.

Chen Guan: [How could it be impossible! It's true! I was also surprised. Although there are many cases of women giving red roses to men, I felt something different when the person was the gentle and graceful Ling Zong. Love can make people crazy. The power of love is truly great.]

He had just finished speaking.

Gu Zhou suddenly hung up the phone.

I immediately called Tan Wenzhou.

Tan Wenzhou: [Hello? Ah Zhou?]

Gu Zhou brushed his lips with his palm. "I heard that all the reservations for the exhibition are fully booked. I guess everyone came here to see you perform. Is everything going well?"

Tan Wenzhou smiled: [It went smoothly, don't worry.]

Gu Zhou was silent for two seconds, then tried to probe: [I saw a photo of you holding roses on your Moments. The roses were pretty. Were they sent by your fans?]

The joy in Tan Wenzhou's voice came through the microphone: "No, it was from Yuan Ling. I was also surprised. Speaking of this, I really want to thank you. It was you who gave me the opportunity to perform, so I had the chance to receive the roses from her. Thank you, Azhou."

The confident tone in his words seemed to be declaring that he had succeeded, and he had obtained the sense of confidence that Wang Yuanling liked.

It was like a stone weighing several tons crushing Gu Zhou's heart.

It hurts and is numb.

His hand on the phone slipped.

The surging resentment and regret overwhelmed his rationality like a tidal wave.

a long time.

Gu Zhou uttered a heavy, regretful sound: "Fuck."

-

Assistant Qin, who hadn't seen anyone come back for a long time, came to look for him.

But there was no trace of Gu Zhou.

He grabbed a passing colleague and asked, "Have you seen Mr. Gu?"

Colleague: "Mr. Gu? He left. He seemed to be in a hurry. Maybe something important happened?"

Special Assistant Qin:? ? Is there anything more important than receiving a big client?

-

Wang Yuanling finished dealing with the matter.

Just took the elevator to the parking lot on the underground first floor.

I was about to drive to the city exhibition hall.

"grumble."

Suddenly, there was a sharp sound of tires screeching on the ground at the entrance.

She looked in the direction of the sound.

She saw a Land Rover rushing towards her with great momentum.

The dazzling headlights shone directly into her eyes.

That's too fast.

Her spine suddenly stiffened in shock.

He stood on tiptoe and was about to hide to the side.

The speeding car suddenly stopped.

The next moment.

Then Gu Zhou walked out from the driver's seat.

When I met those eyes that looked even darker in the dimly lit basement.

She panicked a little but gradually calmed down.

"Boss Gu, what happened?"

Her eyes fell on his left hand in a cast, and she was surprised: "Why don't you let the driver help you drive? Can you drive with one hand?"

"Bang." The sound of the door closing echoed in the quiet basement.

He walked towards me against the light.

The visible light in front of my eyes was suppressed by his broad shoulders, and a feeling of oppression came over me.

Her fingertips curled slightly as they hung down her legs.

Tinkering with my mind.

Trying hard to keep a smile on your face.

"Mr. Gu?"

He stopped, and the wind brought by his movement carried the scent of the car's incense and blew towards her face.

She was forced to look up and meet his lowered gaze: "Where are you going?" he asked in a low voice, skipping over her question.

Wang Yuanling laughed dryly: "I just finished my work and was about to go to the city exhibition hall."

Gu Zhou said in a deep voice, "No need to go, I have something to talk to you about."

Her eyes paused slightly, and she probed: "Is there a problem with the budget?"

A hint of deep meaning flashed across Gu Zhou's eyes: "Yes."

At the end, he said meaningfully: "A lot of questions."

Wang Yuanling looked thoughtful and decided, "Then Mr. Gu, let's go upstairs and discuss it in my office."

The elevator goes up.

She quietly looked at Gu Zhou beside her.

His face was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with an indelible sternness.

It looks really... serious.

She invited him to the office.

Gu Zhou is very outgoing.

As soon as he entered, he walked to the sofa and sat down directly, folding his long legs, resting his right elbow on the armrest, supporting his face lazily, and staring at her with his dark eyes without blinking.

Wang Yuanling's smile remained unchanged: "Mr. Gu, would you like tea or coffee?"

"Did you make the tea?" he asked casually.

Wang Yuanling pondered for a few seconds and smiled faintly: "Mr. Gu, do you want to drink the Dahongpao that day? I just happen to have a box in my office. If you want to drink it, I'll make it right away."

"Thank you, Mr. Ling." He said bluntly.

Wang Yuanling looked at him with his lazy eyes, walked to the desk, bent down to take out a few bags of tea from the cabinet, and picked up the tablet on the table.

While waiting for the water to boil.

She had already opened the budget and handed it to Gu Zhou with both hands: "Boss Gu, what's the problem?"

Gu Zhou held the tablet with his big, bony hands.

Throw it lightly to your side.

The tablet bounced on the sofa. Wang Yuanling's lips parted slightly, and she looked at him with a puzzled look in her eyes.

Gu Zhou's eyes were relaxed, and he raised his chin towards the tea set in front of her: "No hurry, drink tea first."

Wang Yuanling chuckled and explained, "Okay, I just wanted to show you the electronic version first so I can point out the specific problem later."

Gu Zhou was calm and composed: "No need, I can remember it."

Wang Yuanling narrowed her eyes and said, "Boss Gu has a really good memory."

Gu Zhou said indifferently: "Yeah."

Steam lingered in the air, and the aroma of tea filled the air.

Gu Zhou's dark eyes fell directly on her, who was elegantly brewing tea with a dignified and very attractive demeanor.

The complex emotions in his eyes grew more intense.

From the corner of her eye, she could see his gaze fixed on her face.

Just pretend you didn't notice.

As she raised her eyelashes, she made a gesture of invitation: "Mr. Gu, please."

Gu Zhou didn't respond. He leaned forward, took the teacup and took a sip.

He finished drinking.

She poured it.

Back and forth.

When half of the boiling water in the kettle is gone.

She chuckled: "Mr. Gu, it seems that this tea is very much to your liking. When you go back later, take it all back."

Gu Zhou finally spoke, his voice dark: "Why, I just sat here for a short while, and Boss Ling wants to kick me out?"

She laughed: "Mr. Gu, you're joking. How could that be? I'm just glad that my tea suits Mr. Gu's taste."

Gu Zhou lowered his eyes: "More than just tea."

He spoke quietly.

She really didn't hear clearly, and was puzzled: "Huh? Mr. Gu, what did you just say?"

Gu Zhou raised his dark eyes again and said casually, "Nothing."

He grabbed the tablet beside him and swiped the screen with his slender, beautiful fingertips.

Wang Yuanling sat patiently.

Until he handed over the tablet: "These ones are a bit expensive."

"Let me see." She took it with both hands.

He lowered his eyes and read through them one by one.

The tension in my heart gradually turned into silence.

Aren’t these all minor issues?

But this was just a complaint in her heart, and she did not show it on her face.

I just patiently explained each item one by one, except for a few that really needed adjustment.

The report was completed in a few minutes.

She shifted her gaze from the tablet to face him: "Mr. Gu, besides these, do you have any other questions?"

Gu Zhou stared at her with a dark and unclear look in his eyes and said, "Yes."

"What other questions do you have?" she asked.
