Chapter 87 CEO, would you like some milk tea?
Lu Fengqing, holding her phone, followed Gu Suixing out of the hot pot restaurant. Gu Suixing, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped, and Lu Fengqing bumped into him.
Gu Suixing reached behind her and grabbed her waist in time, preventing her from falling backward.
Lu Fengqing peeked ahead in confusion and saw her best friend standing in front of a roadside stall, holding two sesame seed cakes in her hands. She first looked at Gu Suixing and Huo Huai'an, then peeked out from behind Gu Suixing, and finally looked at the sesame seed cakes in her hands and the hot pot restaurant behind them.
"..."
Lu Fengqing immediately pulled her head back.
The next moment, Huo Huai Sui came running over.
"Oh, so you guys came out for hot pot without me!"
Lu Fengqing, Gu Suixing, and Huo Huai'an: "..."
Huo Huai'an rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache, and said to the two people beside him, "You two go back first."
His silly sister is so persistent, it's already past ten o'clock, so I won't take up any more of their time.
Gu Suixing pulled Lu Fengqing and turned to leave.
Huo Huai Sui didn't dare stop Gu Sui Xing, and watched them leave with a face full of anger.
Huo Huai'an pinched her cheek and turned her head back, "What are you doing out so late?"
Huo Huai Sui replied angrily, "I'm hungry!"
Huo Huai'an: "Is there nothing to eat at home?"
"The nanny's child is sick at home, so she took the afternoon off to go home." Huo Huai Sui slapped Huo Huai An's hand away and angrily questioned, "Why didn't you invite me when you came out to eat hot pot? Why, why, why!"
Huo Huai'an: "...It was a coincidence that we ran into each other."
Huo Huai Sui didn't believe his nonsense. "You've just forgotten about me!"
Huo Huai'an scoffed, "You're not my wife, why would I care about you?"
Before Huo Huai Sui could speak again, Huo Huai An said, "Shut up and I'll take you to eat a hamburger. If you keep babbling, you can keep eating your pancake."
Huo Huaisui chose to keep quiet.
But after a short while, Huo Huai Sui couldn't hold back any longer and said, "I just saw that scumbag Tang Xing Zhou."
Huo Huai'an asked casually, "What's wrong with him now?"
“Nothing much,” Huo Huai Sui said. “He’s with Gu Weiwei, and Gu Jingdong too.”
Huo Huai Sui grew up abroad and has not been back in City A for very long, but she has met quite a few people. Apart from the Xie family, who are always low-key and rarely attend banquets and events, she has met almost all the young masters and ladies from the other families.
Huo Huai'an raised an eyebrow.
Gu Jingdong's mother is Tang Xingzhou's aunt, and his father is Gu Weiwei's second uncle. In other words, Gu Jingdong is Tang Xingzhou's cousin and Gu Weiwei's cousin. It's not surprising that they would go out to eat together, but I'm afraid it's more than just having a meal.
Huo Huai'an: "You're allowed to have an extra serving of fries."
Huo Huaisui: "...Thank you."

The nights in big cities are always particularly lively for a long time. Even after 10 p.m., the streets are still bustling with traffic, the shops on both sides are still open, the lights are bright, and the noise of people is deafening.
Lu Fengqing stared at the street vendors on both sides of the street, looking somewhat dazed.
Looking back now, it seems that she and Gu Suixing haven't had a proper shopping trip together since they returned to City A. University should have been the most carefree time, but they were always held back by one thing or another, and they spent far less time together than they did in City S.
Lu Fengqing looked down at their intertwined hands.
During the nearly six years they were apart, she had thought about many things. She thought he had fallen in love with someone else, and she thought she would marry another man. But what she never thought was that she and he could still hold hands and walk together like this.
There are too many love stories in this world that end in failure. Time is the hardest chasm for couples to cross and the most grueling test. She was prepared to give up, but she never expected that they could still get back together.
Although there is still a possibility of separation.
"What are you thinking about?"
A deep male voice came through.
Lu Fengqing looked up and met his gaze for a moment. "I want to drink milk tea."
I threw away the cup I hadn't finished in the afternoon.
Gu Suixing: "Aren't you afraid you won't be able to sleep at night if you drink it?"
Lu Fengqing said, "I can go to work tomorrow and then sleep."
Gu Suixing raised an eyebrow. "You told your boss you were planning to slack off at work tomorrow?"
Lu Fengqing thought to herself, "I've been touching you all day, and you even had someone buy me snacks to support me. What are you pretending for now..." But she didn't say that.
Lu Fengqing rolled her eyes slightly and suggested with utmost sincerity, "You can dismiss me."
Working seriously interfered with her shopping sprees and her ability to make stunning appearances at various banquets and parties. Three months was too long, and she wanted to quit her job early.
"Don't even think about it." Gu Suixing looked around and found a milk tea shop not far ahead, so he immediately took her there.
Most of the customers at the milk tea shop are young girls. As soon as the two entered, they immediately attracted the attention of many young girls. Some even took photos with their phones after they came to their senses.
"What would you like to drink?" Gu Suixing asked, her head slightly lowered.
His appearance, which was already extremely attractive to women, softened when he looked down at Lu Fengqing, and his expression became extremely gentle and patient.
The girl sitting by the floor-to-ceiling glass almost screamed, then quickly covered her mouth.
Lu Fengqing glanced at the menu and finally ordered a fruit tea. After ordering, she enthusiastically asked the man next to her, "Mr. CEO, would you like some milk tea?"
The domineering CEO said he wouldn't drink.
After leaving the bubble tea shop, the two did not linger and drove straight back to Xingheli.
Back at the hotel, Lu Fengqing lay on the sofa with a cup of fruit tea and her laptop, stretching out her long, white legs and placing them on Gu Suixing's lap. She plugged her headphones into the laptop and continued watching her drama.
Gu Suixing still had a lot to do. He had a laptop in front of him. After finishing a video conference with the senior executives of his companies and handing over the matters that required his decision-making and arrangements, he started to work on Gu's Group's affairs.
Assistant Fang spoke first about today's events: "Manager Wei has already collected the evidence and sent it to the legal department. Attorney Sun will deliver these materials to the police station tomorrow morning when he starts work."
Gu Suixing hummed in agreement, and after Assistant Fang finished reporting on her work, she suddenly asked, "Is the new company's office ready?"
Assistant Fang nodded. "It's all set up as you instructed, and it's ready to use anytime."
"Understood. Have the renovation company come to Xingheli tomorrow." Gu Suixing gave the order in a calm voice and hung up the video call.
Gu Suixing sat quietly on the sofa for a moment, closed his laptop, turned to the side and took the earphones out of Lu Fengqing's ears, "Go to sleep."
Lu Fengqing blinked and stretched out her hands to him.
Gu Suixing picked her up and carried her to the bedroom. "If you're really tired tomorrow, don't go to the company."
“That won’t do,” Lu Fengqing said.
So many people watched her being taken away by the police. If she doesn't show up tomorrow, people might think she's being held in police custody.
She not only had to go, but she had to go in style.
Lu Fengqing asked, "What do you think of me wearing that fuchsia dress to work tomorrow?"
“Sure,” Gu Suixing agreed. “How about we lay out a hundred-meter-long red carpet for you in front of the Gu Group building?”
Lu Fengqing hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "If it's not too much trouble... it's not impossible."
Gu Suixing chuckled, "No trouble at all. I can call over a hundred more reporters to take pictures of you. You might even get a free trending topic and have the whole nation watching your young lady charm."
Lu Fengqing: "..."
That's a bit of an exaggeration.
Before going to bed, Gu Suixing suddenly said, "Aunt Wan and the others have gone back to City A. When I called Uncle Xie tonight, she asked about you. I'll take you to meet them in a while."
Lu Fengqing: "Oh."
