Chapter 43 Lin Shu is out of control
the next day.
A coffee shop located diagonally across from the Gu Group Building, with an elegant and private environment.
The air is filled with the aroma of freshly ground coffee and soothing piano music.
Lin Shu sat upright in the corner booth by the window.
Her makeup was exquisite, and every strand of her hair was meticulously groomed. A cup of latte sat before her, and her fingertips unconsciously stroked the wall of the cup, revealing that her inner thoughts were not as calm as she appeared.
Several high-end luxury endorsements that she had worked so hard to secure were suddenly and without warning shelved by the brands for various vague reasons.
When the news reached her, she immediately smelled a familiar hand: Gu Chengyu.
Instead of being flustered, she smiled with satisfaction.
Sure enough, he still couldn't let her go.
Last time in the backstage passage, she rejected him firmly, which made him hit a snag. Considering the pride of this prince, I'm afraid he has finally been completely enraged?
Now you're using this method to force her to submit?
Haha, man.
Although playing hard to get is old-fashioned, it is extremely effective.
Although she felt a little nervous about stopping the endorsement, it also meant that she had made a good move and she had become different in his heart.
Lin Shu picked up the cold coffee, took a sip, and the bitterness spread on the tip of her tongue.
She chose this place closest to him, sent him a message to ask him to meet, and planned to reconcile with him.
You should be humble, but not too low.
She wanted him to know that she, Lin Shu, was not a plaything that could be summoned and dismissed at will.
She was worth his effort.
The door of the cafe was pushed open and the wind chimes made a crisp sound.
Gu Chengyu walked in.
He was wearing a dark gray suit with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, outlining a perfect inverted triangle silhouette.
His tie was tied meticulously, and his handsome face was expressionless, except for his deep almond-shaped eyes, which showed impatience.
He glanced around casually, finally landing on Lin Shu, and walked over with his long legs.
He didn't sit down, but just crossed his arms, looked down at her, and said in a calm voice: "What's the matter?"
Lin Shu felt a pang of suffocation at his distant attitude, and the opening remarks she had prepared were stuck in her throat.
She took a deep breath, forced herself to smile brightly and appropriately, and pointed to the seat opposite: "Cheng Yu, sit down? Let's talk."
Gu Chengyu didn't move. He lowered his eyes, raised his hand, glanced at his watch, and said indifferently: "I'll give you five minutes."
The smile on Lin Shu's face froze for a moment, then she tried hard to maintain it.
She put down her coffee cup, leaned forward slightly, and lowered her voice with just the right amount of grievance and stubbornness: "The endorsement for me...wasn't it you who did it?"
Gu Chengyu raised his eyebrows and said nothing: "Then?"
"Cheng Yu..."
Lin Shu looked at him, her beautiful eyes filled with complex emotions, including admiration, unwillingness, grievance of being offended, and a hint of forced pride.
"I know. Last time backstage, I was too impulsive."
"I admit that I still have you in my heart. But you use this method..."
She paused, her voice accusing. "Isn't that too much? Do you know what those endorsements mean to me?"
Her voice was gentle, full of affection and accusation.
If it were in the past, Gu Chengyu might have been aroused by her love-hate, reluctance-to-rejection attitude and a desire to conquer her.
But at this moment, listening to her accusations and admiration, another picture flashed uncontrollably in Gu Chengyu's mind: the little figure wearing a gray T-shirt and bulky glasses.
She was forced to guard Lin Shu's costumes, sweating profusely...but she would still hold the script in the shade of the tree and read it attentively.
Disgust replaced all possible emotions.
After she scolded and made things difficult for his Qianqian, he no longer had any good feelings towards her.
Even the pretentious look in front of him seemed particularly hypocritical and glaring.
Lin Shu continued to speak, trying to impress him with her old feelings: "...Cheng Yu, does it really have to come to this?"
"Can't we just talk about it? You know, I've always..."
"Are you done?" Gu Chengyu interrupted her sentimental remarks coldly, without any emotion in his voice.
Lin Shu was interrupted by him and looked up at him in surprise.
Gu Chengyu's gaze fell on her carefully dressed face.
He opened his thin lips slightly, his voice low but unquestionable: "In half a month, Yunque will have a private meeting. You will accompany me."
Lin Shu's heart skipped a beat.
Was he...giving her a way out? Hinting at reconciliation?
She just knew it!
He really still cares about her!
She suppressed the ecstasy and pride in her heart, but tried to maintain a bit of reserve and pride on her face, and raised her chin slightly: "Cheng Yu, it's not impossible for you to let me go. But this time..."
She wanted to say, you haven’t apologized to me for this incident yet, so you should at least return the endorsement to her first, right?
And she can't lower herself so quickly, she has to get Joe.
However, Gu Chengyu's patience had obviously run out.
He had no interest in hearing what she said next.
There was only indifference in the man's eyes.
"Go, or don't go."
His voice was low and oppressive, "Go to the bureau, in front of everyone, admit your mistake, and say you want to reconcile."
He leaned forward slightly, closing the distance a little, looking at Lin Shu's face, but the words he said made her feel as if she was falling into an ice cave: "Don't go, or if you go, don't do it..."
"Just go back to being your bartender."
After saying that, Gu Chengyu stood up.
He no longer looked at Lin Shu's face, which had lost all color and was filled with shock and humiliation. He turned around without hesitation, took long steps, and left the cafe calmly, just like when he came.
The doorbell rang again, as if mocking Lin Shu's self-conceit and calculation.
Lin Shu froze in place, her fingertips cold.
The sense of complacency just now was instantly overwhelmed by embarrassment and fear.
He wasn't giving her a chance.
Are you really tired of it?
how so?
She had been with him for so long that she knew him a little bit.
This shouldn't be the case!
what to do?
Want her to wag her tail and beg for mercy like a dog in front of everyone?
The key is that you can’t get any benefits?
Will you be banned if you don’t do it well?
Gu Chengyu, you are so cruel!
Things got out of control and she got out of control.
What went wrong?
