Chapter 17: The Greedy Secretary, Scumbag of the CEO (17)

Gu Yanqing glanced over coldly, and said in a low voice: "If you don't want to stay any longer, I don't mind asking the security guard to come and ask you to leave."

Gu Yanbei spread his hands with a grin: "It's just a joke, I hope my sister-in-law doesn't mind?"

Sister-in-law...

Knowing that Gu Yanqing would not marry Su Yu, he still called her that. It seemed like a sarcasm, but also like a coercion, forcing Su Yu to recognize her own identity.

Su Yu didn't say anything.

Gu Yanqing glanced over coldly and gave him a warning look.

"Well, I have to stop talking."

Gu Yanbei shrugged, stopped making trouble, and lowered his head to play with his phone.

Su Yu also lowered her head to look at her phone. Gu Yanqing slowly withdrew his gaze and concentrated on reading the documents. The office became quiet for a while.

Only the system knows what Gu Yanbei and Su Yu are doing. I feel sorry for the male protagonist.

——Call me Brother Yan Bei again.

Su Yu bit her lips lightly, raised her eyes and glared at him silently.

——This is the company.

And Gu Yanqing is still here.

Gu Yanbei sneered.

——You knew it was a company, but you still messed around with my brother? Tell me, what did you two do in this office? Did you sleep on this sofa?

Su Yu's face turned slightly red, and she looked embarrassed and angry.

——No! Don't talk nonsense!

Gu Yanbei chuckled.

——Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let me ask you, when are you going to break up with my brother? Don't tell me that you are going to take my money and hang me while you are still entangled with my brother. There is no such good thing in the world.

Su Yu bit her teeth lightly and tapped her fingers on the screen, not noticing Gu Yanqing's sidelong glance at her at all.

——I will break up with him, please give me some more time.

"Su Yu." Gu Yanqing suddenly spoke.

Su Yu was startled, her hands shook, and the phone fell on her legs.

She looked unnatural: "What, what's wrong, Ayan?"

Gu Yanqing had a blank expression on his face, his eyes slightly cold: "Send this document."

Su Yu quickly took it and responded: "Oh, oh okay."

As she walked out the door, the panicked expression on Su Yu's face disappeared.

[How about it, did I show it clearly enough this time? ]

The system confirmed: [There is something fishy going on. When you two were chatting, the male protagonist first looked at Gu Yanbei, then at you. His eyes were cold and he was obviously suspicious.]

Su Yu: [That’s good, otherwise I would really think he was blind. ]

When she returned to the office, Gu Yanbei was no longer on the sofa. Su Yu subconsciously looked around and suddenly met Gu Yanqing's calm gaze, and shuddered.

Gu Yanqing said calmly, "Who are you looking for, Gu Yanbei? How come I didn't know when you two became so familiar with each other?"

He even stopped calling him "big brother" and just called Gu Yanbei by his name.

The man's indifferent expression was like a flat surface of ice. One didn't know whether stepping on it would be like walking on flat ground or fall into an icy cave.

Su Yu's eyes dodged and she explained in a trembling voice: "No, no, I'm just curious. I was here just now."

Gu Yanqing remained noncommittal.

"I let him go." Gu Yanqing said calmly, raising his hand towards Su Yu: "Come here."

Su Yu walked over with a nervous look on her face, but suddenly she lost her balance and fell into the man's arms. A pair of strong arms embraced her.

Su Yu exclaimed softly, but the sound was blocked back between her lips in an instant. She was surrounded by a cold and aggressive breath. The man pinched her waist as if to declare his sovereignty and took over her.

Soon, Su Yu felt that she couldn't breathe, so she clenched her fists and pressed them against his chest, beating weakly.

“Let go… I can’t breathe…”

Just when Su Yu thought that the male protagonist had discovered her affair with his brother and was so angry that he wanted to suffocate her, the man slowly let her go.

Su Yu lay in the man's arms, breathing heavily.

A man's low and indifferent voice came from above: "Su Yu, are you hiding something from me?"

It’s here, it’s finally here.

Will Su Yu admit it? Of course not!

She froze and forced a smile: "Why are you asking me this all of a sudden? What could I be hiding from you?"

"Okay, I believe you."

Su Yu was stunned, raised her head, and there was deep confusion in her eyes.

Gu Yanqing's eyes were deep: "Since you said no, I believe you."

I hope you don't lie to me, otherwise...

Gu Yanqing said silently in his heart.

Su Yu: ???

[No way, the male protagonist isn't angry? He doesn't doubt it? 】

[I know this question!] The system has experience: [Host, you don’t understand this. The hero will only be jealous of the heroine. Other women are not important. Unless he sees you and Gu Yanbei in bed with his own eyes and feels that his dignity as a man has been challenged, he will break up with you in anger and turn to the heroine.]

Su Yu frowned and thought: [That makes sense. ]

Her eyes lit up: [How about I arrange a scene for the male lead to catch an adulterer? It would be best if the female lead takes him there, and after he finds out that I am a fickle, wicked woman, the male lead gets hurt, the female lead comforts him, and then the two of them get the marriage certificate right there! ]

The system advises Su Yu to be cautious: [Aren’t you afraid that the male protagonist will kill you on the spot? ]

Su Yu rubbed her chin: [That’s right, I’ll think about it again. ]

but……

[By the way, was it the male lead who made me fall just now? I was walking fine, and I felt someone tripped me, and then I fell into his arms. There was no one else in the whole office except him. It couldn't be a ghost, right?] Su Yu suddenly changed the subject.

Su Yu was angry when she got the system's affirmative answer.

【This man is really scheming! 】

The spacious office was silent. Su Yu leaned stiffly in the man's arms, not daring to move, like a toy. Upon closer inspection, her face was full of guilt.

Looking from afar, there is a warm and affectionate atmosphere.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Yanqing spoke again: "Su Yu, come with me to a place tomorrow."

"W-where?"

Su Yu was horrified: [Could it be that my poor acting skills have finally been seen through, and the male lead couldn't stand it anymore, so he decided to take me to the wilderness to kill me and dump my body? ]

The system is silent: […Host, your imagination is very good, but I suggest you stop imagining it for now. ]

"You'll know when you get there," said Gu Yanqing.

Su Yu was in tears, but she looked very well behaved: "Oh."

After waiting till the next afternoon with great difficulty, Su Yu sat into the passenger seat of Gu Yanqing's car with trepidation, fear and a pounding heart.

The black Maybach slowly accelerated, and the scenery outside the window gradually receded. Su Yu tightly grasped her phone, making sure she could call the police immediately if something went wrong, and then...

...The car stopped.

The car stopped?!

Su Yu was confused. Did it take five minutes from the time the car started to the time it stopped?

The building outside the car window is towering into the sky, and what comes into view is a luxurious club located in the same CBD business district as the Gu Group.

Walking into the magnificent hall, Su Yu took Gu Yanqing's arm and avoided the gazes of no less than ten young men with casual manners and bad intentions.

Su Yu was shocked: [Could it be that the male boss wanted to sell me to a place like this? ]

System: [Friendly reminder, the situation described by the host does not exist and cannot be approved. The hero is a law-abiding, kind and upright citizen.]
