Xu Zhixu's explanation was so reasonable that Bai Lan and Gu Jiju couldn't find any fault with it.
Bai Lan also nodded in agreement. The two of them spoke one after another and their understanding was perfect.
"Yeah, I haven't seen him very often. I don't even know Mr. Xu..."
"Yeah?"
Gu Jiju asked knowingly, and even smiled at the two of them with a conspiracy that he had long planned.
"I heard that you two had met privately before. I thought you two knew each other, but it doesn't matter. Maybe they were mistaken."
As soon as the words fell, the two people who had smiles on their faces instantly froze their lips.
Somehow, even though Gu Jiju didn't say anything harsh, Bai Lan and Xu Zhixu felt like they were hit by a blow.
This obvious feeling of surprise made Bai Lan feel uncomfortable all over.
Xu Zhixu was even more concerned and even took the initiative to ask:
"This... who did Mr. Gu hear this from? Isn't it a bit too outrageous that Bai Lan and I met privately? After all, Bai Lan and I are not familiar with each other. It seems that Mr. Gu cares about Bai Lan very much and is concerned about her affairs."
Xu Zhixu wanted to take the initiative and directly interrupted Gu Jiju's next words.
However, Gu Jiju didn't fall for it at all, and even played Xu Zhixu around.
"It's just a rumor. I didn't go to get any evidence. But don't think too much about it. I know you two have nothing to do with each other. The more anxious you are to explain, the more it seems that you care about this matter."
Xu Zhixu's next words suddenly stopped.
The man frowned and couldn't help but take a breath.
But Gu Jiju looked relaxed and was about to turn around and leave to continue making arrangements at the scene.
Bai Lan did not follow behind him, but instead exchanged glances with Xu Zhixu.
After Gu Jiju left, Xu Zhixu gave Bai Lan a look, and the other party immediately understood.
The two of them walked quietly to the other side of the corridor. Their conversation was very secretive, and they didn't want to be seen by Gu Jiju at all.
Xu Zhixu even had his back to the scene, and from a distance it looked as if the two men had no connection at all.
But the sound continued.
"Has Gu Jiju always been like this?"
Bai Lan was a little confused by Xu Zhixu's question.
But looking at Xu Zhixu's disdainful eyes, Bai Lan probably understood what he meant.
Gu Jiju was indeed a little strange today.
First he was particularly concerned about himself, and now he says some irrelevant things.
The most important thing is that Gu Jiju's previous test made Bai Lan doubt whether he knew something.
"Gu Jiju has always been very strange, not just today. Have you noticed it after spending a few days with Gu Jiju? But I'm telling you, don't talk nonsense later. I'm afraid Gu Jiju will cheat."
Xu Zhixu naturally knew that it was better to be cautious.
Not only that, the relationship between Bai Lan and Gu Jiju is too fragile.
If it was really because of him that the relationship between the two broke down, I'm afraid Xu Zhixu wouldn't be able to explain it even if he wanted to.
"I see, but what exactly is Gu Jiju's purpose for this banquet? He invited so many familiar people to come, and I just saw... there were reporters at the scene."
"Gu Jiju said he wanted to record it."
At first, Bai Lan thought Gu Jiju was sincere.
But now that I think about it, things don't seem that simple.
Gu Jiju is definitely not someone who can do things casually.
Everything he did should have its own reasons.
Just like this time.
"Record?"
Sure enough, Xu Zhixu beside him was a little suspicious.
The man looked around and found that several of the reporters were familiar to him.
Xu Zhixu had called him to work before, and now that he appeared at the scene, Xu Zhixu always felt something was wrong.
Everyone at the scene was an acquaintance, but it gave Xu Zhixu a feeling of unease.
"I don't know if I'm overthinking it, but I always feel it's a little strange."
Bai Lan curled her lips and said nothing.
But she actually thought so in her heart.
"Forget it, I won't get involved in your affairs with Gu Jiju, but as an old classmate, I still want to remind you that Gu Jiju is a seasoned man. If you are with him, you are like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth."
Bai Lan knew Gu Jiju's character very well from the beginning.
The woman pulled the corners of her mouth together and smiled helplessly.
At the same time, I also expressed my understanding of Xu Zhixu's words.
I really should think carefully about the strategy between myself and Gu Jiju.
"That's true, I know it in my heart, but I have wanted to be with Gu Jiju for a long time. Now that the final push has come, I will definitely not give up."
While they were talking, a figure suddenly ran over from a distance.
The other person was still calling Bai Lan's name.
This frightened Bai Lan so much that he trembled all over and reflexively looked towards the source of the sound.
Gu Jiju's assistant came to Bai Lan without stopping, and Xu Zhixu was so scared that he immediately turned around and left to make room for the two of them.
"Miss Bai, come with me, Mr. Gu is ready."
Bai Lan followed the other person without hesitation.
This scene is what Bai Lan has been looking forward to for a long time.
Marrying Gu Jiju had been her dream for several years.
Now it has finally come true...
Following the pace of his assistant, Bai Lan took every step with great confidence.
But just as he was about to approach Gu Jiju, Bai Lan looked back and saw Soder's figure.
The two looked at each other from a distance of several meters.
Sode's eyes were filled with disappointment, which made Bai Lan slow down his pace.
"What's wrong?"
The assistant walking in front suddenly noticed that something was wrong with Bai Lan and immediately stopped to ask.
