Chapter 99: The insignificant 1.39 million

Everything around seemed to be quiet at this moment.

Through the receiver, Jian Yao could clearly hear that after she said this, the faint sounds of Gu Zhiyan's typing on the keyboard and clicking of the mouse fell silent.

If you listen carefully, you may hear low calls and laughter.

Gu Zhiyan's voice was filled with undisguised lightness and laughter, "Since the Madam invites me, of course I will go."

Jian Yao glanced at the time and tightened her grip on the steering wheel. "Then I'll drive to pick you up?"

"It is a great honor."

This time, the screams from over there were even louder.

Jian Yao realized there were other people around him and her face turned red.

As soon as Gu Zhiyan finished speaking, Jian Yao hung up the phone at lightning speed.

She knocked her head against the steering wheel in embarrassment, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into!

The people over there must have heard it!

So embarrassing.

The phone vibrated, and Jian Yao looked up and clicked on the message from Xu Sixin.

Xu Si: "Progress bar?"

Jian Yao breathed a sigh of relief, "I've already made an appointment with her."

Xu Si: "Agreeing to the invitation is half the battle. Remember what I said, don't rush, take your time."

Xu Si: "Think about the methods used by those green tea girls. Appropriately showing weakness and asking for help may be more effective!"

Xu Si's tone was like that of a scammer who was trying to trick her into filling in her password.

Jian Yao: …

It turns out that the city is full of tricks!

Jian Yao: "Having you is my blessing."

Yaoguang Conference Room.

Gu Zhiyan, who was sitting in the main seat, leaned casually on the back of the chair, playing with his mobile phone in his hand, with a happy smile on the corner of his lips.

"Sorry, my wife called and delayed everyone's time."

A group of executives in the conference room shook their heads.

"Don't delay, don't delay. My sister-in-law's matter is a big deal."

"Yes, yes, let's hurry up and don't let my sister-in-law wait for too long."

Gu Zhiyan didn't say anything and continued looking at his phone.

Assistant Xu observed Gu Zhiyan's movements and coughed lightly. "Actually, this meeting doesn't have to be held. Hasn't the general direction of the revision been decided? You just need to check the remaining details with President Pei."

As Gu Zhiyan's right-hand man, Assistant Xu often says the same things that Gu Zhiyan said.

Everyone understood it almost immediately.

"Assistant Xu is right. It's the same as what President Pei reported. It's the same."

"General Manager Gu has just made it very clear. Our department guarantees that we can complete the task."

"It's a small matter, Mr. Gu, you don't need to use a butcher knife to kill a chicken."

"Yes, my sister-in-law is here. How about you go and greet her first?"

Gu Zhiyan was twirling his phone in his hand, feeling quite good. Hearing everyone's discussion, he said reluctantly, "Since everyone has come to this point, I will respectfully obey your orders. If you have any questions, please email me."

He stood up slowly, adjusted his cufflinks, and nodded slightly to everyone, "You guys continue."

Ten minutes later, at the gate of Yaoguang University.

Gu Zhiyan stood there tall and slender, his eyes fixed on the direction of the intersection, scanning every passing car.

If he turned around and looked carefully, he would find that every window of every floor within Yaoguang's sight was filled with heads.

The red Ferrari that Jian Yao drove today was one of the betrothal gifts given by the Gu family. It is a top-of-the-line sports car and is particularly cool.

Gu Zhiyan recognized it almost at first sight.

The car stopped beside him, and Jian Yao's fair cheeks were revealed through the lowered window.

She put on makeup today and looked more radiant and beautiful than usual. When she looked at me from the side, she was pretty and charming, with a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes that looked lively and energetic.

"Mr. Gu, please get in the car."

The car door opened, and Gu Zhiyan looked at the flowers and gift box left by the co-pilot, his eyes warm, "For me?"

Jian Yao held the steering wheel and felt that this scene was so familiar.

She asked the same question when Gu Zhiyan went to pick her up.

How did he answer at that time?

Jian Yao recalled Gu Zhiyan's tone and expression at that time, and said in a teasing tone, "Do you think there is a third person here?"

Gu Zhiyan raised his eyebrows slightly, and a chuckle escaped from his Adam's apple, "You still hold a grudge."

Jian Yao raised her chin and said, "Of course."

In the car, Gu Zhiyan sat in the passenger seat and looked at the road ahead, his nose filled with the rich scent of roses.

"Why did you think of inviting me to dinner?"

The reason is also quite subtle.

It's almost the same as the one he held to celebrate the opening of the Pei family.

Jian Yao bit the soft flesh on her cheek, trying to make her expression look more natural.

"You helped me so much with Lu's matter, so it's not worth mentioning that I'm just treating you to a meal."

Gu Zhiyan raised the latest Patek Philippe in his hand. If he remembered correctly, it cost 1.39 million.

The insignificant 1.39 million...

He said "Oh" in a meaningful tone, turned his head and looked at Jian Yao's profile seriously, "Is there no other reason?"

Jian Yao is really not good at talking nonsense, especially under Gu Zhiyan's gaze, it seems that all her little thoughts are exposed.

But, this usually gentle man seemed to be determined to get to the bottom of things today.

Gu Zhiyan: “Hmm?”

Jian Yao coughed lightly, "Hmm."

Gu Zhiyan's lips curled slightly, and his smile spread. "Well, is there or not?"

Jian Yao's cheeks were flushed, and she was somewhat glad that she had put on makeup, so the blush wasn't noticeable due to the foundation.

"have."

Gu Zhiyan's eyes swept over Jian Yao's red ears, his eyes were dark and misty, he just curled his lips and didn't say anything else.

Along the way, Jian Yao's face was flushed. Fortunately, the western restaurant she booked was really close to Yao Guang.

It will be here soon.

She booked a private room.

In the room, Jian Yao kept Xu Si's reminder in mind.

Appropriately ask for help and show weakness.

She was just about to ask Gu Zhiyan if he could help her pull out the chair.

Gu Zhiyan had already stepped forward and adjusted her chair.

Jian Yao: Okay, I’ll find another opportunity later.

When ordering food, Jian Yao remembered the cream mushroom soup and seared steak that Gu Zhiyan made last time, and thought that Gu Zhiyan might like them, so she ordered one for each of them, and then handed the menu to the person opposite her.

When Gu Zhiyan saw the two dishes that Jian Yao selected, he raised his cold eyes and looked at Jian Yao.

She tilted her head, as if looking at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

But Gu Zhiyan noticed her clenched fingertips at a glance, and a hint of smile flashed across his eyes.

"Then add another serving of foie gras steak."

He ordered the food and handed the menu directly to the waiter.

Jian Yao turned around and asked, "Can I drink?"

Gu Zhiyan sat upright and said, "Don't drink while driving, and don't drive after drinking."

"Ms. Jian Yao, your idea is very dangerous."

Jian Yao was a little disappointed, "Okay, I forgot."

I originally wanted to drink some wine to relieve my tension, and forgot that I drove here.

Gu Zhiyan saw that she was wilting in an instant, "Actually, it's not impossible..."
