Chapter 125: Why does true love need to be shown off?

After comforting Bai Yue, Zhao Chen looked at Lu Jiajia, "The rest of us haven't contacted President Gu and Jian Yao recently. It would be a bit too rash to disturb them. Why don't you add Jian Yao to the group and ask where they are."

Seeing that everyone was almost there, Lu Jiajia took out her cell phone and prepared to add Jian Yao to ask.

I don't know whether she logged into QQ after she went back home yesterday. I forgot to tell her the box number last night.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I opened QQ, I received a friend request, and the note was Jian Yao.

She looked delighted and immediately nodded her agreement.

Jian Yao: "We are already at the door, where are you?"

Lu Jiajia tapped her fingers, "We are in Chunshui Pavilion."

Putting away her phone, she looked up and smiled, "They are already at the door, they will be here soon."

After hearing what Lu Jiajia said, everyone present sat up straighter and looked towards the door.

Bai Yue quietly took out a mirror and tidied her hair, then applied some lip gloss to make herself look more pure and innocent. She adjusted her sitting position so that she faced the door at the most beautiful angle.

Although she was not sure whether Gu Zhiyan would come today, in order to overwhelm Jian Yao, she carefully selected everything from her hair to her shoes, just to show her best side to Gu Zhiyan.

There was silence in the room for a moment.

The redwood door opened, and a waitress in cheongsam came over to invite us in. "This private room is Chunshui Pavilion."

The man and woman who came were handsome and beautiful, a perfect match. The girl gently took the man's arm and nodded slightly to thank the waiter. The extremely simple white shirts made the two of them look dignified and self-respecting.

One of them is bright and charming, the other is cold and abstinent.

They had never thought before that these two people would end up together.

Even though I had seen it on the trending searches, I always felt it wasn’t real. But when I saw the real person today, it was surprisingly consistent.

As if it was meant to be this way.

Although Lu Jiajia had seen the two of them being affectionate yesterday, she was still dazzled when she saw them wearing the same outfit and appearing in the same frame today.

"Jian Yao, Mr. Gu, you two even wore couple outfits!"

Lu Jiajia joked with a smile.

I don't know which word pleased Gu Zhiyan. Gu Zhiyan, who was distant and cold to Lu Jiajia yesterday, rarely smiled at a girl. "It's not a couple outfit, it's just a coincidence."

He is telling the truth.

Jian Yao wears a shirt simply because other clothes can't cover it.

But he smiled with such smugness on his face that others felt that the two of them were a romantic couple.

Zhao Chen was the first to react, "This shows that Mr. Gu and Jian Yao are in tune with each other."

Zhao Chen squeezed past Lu Jiajia and stepped forward, extending his hand toward Gu Zhiyan, "Boss Gu, I'm Zhao Chen. I used to be the monitor of the class, and now I'm the project manager of Feiyuan Technology."

When Gu Zhiyan heard him calling Jian Yao by her full name, the smile on his lips turned cold. When he saw him directly squeeze past Lu Jiajia to chat with her, he raised his eyelids to look at him and said coldly.

"Oh, sorry, it's been a while, I can't remember."

Zhao Chen's smile froze, but when he thought of Gu Zhiyan's identity, he immediately adjusted his mood and forced a smile, "We haven't seen each other for so long, it's possible that I can't remember clearly."

He stepped aside to make way for the main seat, "Everyone is almost here, so please take a seat, Mr. Gu."

There are still two empty seats in the direction of the main seat, which can be seen at a glance that they were reserved in advance.

When Bai Yue saw Gu Zhiyan looking at her, she immediately smiled reservedly at him, stood up and prepared to speak.

Gu Zhiyan glanced past her and looked at Lu Jiajia below him.

She sat in the lower seat, which was near the door, but there happened to be a boy on the other side.

He raised his chin and told the waiter, "Please add two seats here for me."

Bai Yue stood there awkwardly, not knowing whether to speak or not.

Zhao Chen forced a smile, "Boss Gu, how can I let you sit there?"

Lu Jiajia was also a little overwhelmed by the favor.

Of course, she wasn't stupid enough to think that Gu Zhiyan was interested in her.

She knew that she was sitting here because she had a good relationship with Jian Yao and because she was too lazy to deal with Zhao Chen.

But her seat here is not very good, which makes it a bit inconvenient when serving the dishes.

"Mr. Gu...this position."

Gu Zhiyan didn't care much, "It's okay, we are all classmates, it doesn't matter where we sit."

He deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "classmate", implying that they would not discuss official business today.

Jian Yao also let go of Gu Zhiyan's hand and pulled Lu Jiajia to sit down in the seat that had just been rearranged.

"It doesn't matter where you sit."

After that, she leaned over to Lu Jiajia's ear and whispered, "Besides, I want to sit with you."

Lu Jiajia smiled shyly, and her tense heartstrings immediately relaxed.

Gu Zhiyan sat down next to Jian Yao. Before the others could react, the boy on the other side of him trembled with fear.

He glanced sideways.

Looks a little familiar.

It seems that he had spread rumors about Jian Yao before and was beaten by him.

When he glanced at him, the man immediately lowered his head and avoided Gu Zhiyan's sight.

The meal was a bit awkward at the beginning because of Zhao Chen's incident, but then the atmosphere finally eased when we saw Gu Zhiyan, the president of a listed company, sitting at the serving table, helping the waiters serve the dishes and adjusting the position of the dishes without any airs.

Even the man next to Gu Zhiyan relaxed a lot, and during the meal, he bravely picked up a glass of wine.

"Mr. Gu, I made a lot of mistakes when I was young. Please don't mind."

Gu Zhiyan curled his lips and picked up the teacup on the table, "You drove here, so you want tea instead of wine?"

He was willing to drink because he was giving her face. How could a man dare to be picky about the tea he drank? He raised his head and drank the wine in his glass. "As you like."

Seeing that Gu Zhiyan and Jian Yao were talkative, others also started to strike up a conversation.

"Mr. Gu, when did you develop a crush on Jian Yao?"

"Yeah, we didn't see it at all in high school."

Everyone just asked casually, and didn't expect him to answer seriously.

They share Bai Yue's view that the two of them are together as a business marriage.

I think they will most likely get a very official, literary-sounding answer.

Bai Yue on the opposite side couldn't even suppress a hint of a sneer on his face.

She has had a crush on Gu Zhiyan for many years. She knows better than anyone whether Gu Zhiyan and Jian Yao have had any contact, and she is absolutely sure that there is no love between them.

Things like live streaming of games, treating people to dinner, and couple outfits are just old tricks used by the wealthy circle to build their personalities.

Why does true love need to be shown everywhere?

But there are also sensitive people who have already connected Gu Zhiyan, Jian Yao and Lu Chengze.

But I'm still hazy and can't sort out my thoughts.

Unexpectedly, Gu Zhiyan put down the cup and looked at Jian Yao deeply.

Jian Yao looked into his deep eyes, and in an instant she was brought back to the carriage on the way back after playing Truth or Dare.

This is how he looked at her when she asked him why he kept the bottle of soy milk.

Gu Zhiyan didn't say anything for a long time.

Just when everyone was feeling a little awkward and wondering whether to change the subject, Gu Zhiyan spoke slowly.
