☆, Completely Bad
Chu Yaofeng gently lowered his legs from the dining table, adjusted his posture, and stared straight at Gu Ziqian, whose breathing was slightly rapid. His unfathomable dark eyes suddenly flashed sharply, and a mysterious smile appeared on his lips. "Gu Ziqian, I've always thought you were a good-for-nothing. It wasn't until today that I realized you're quite cunning. You've waited until now to take revenge. Ha, but with your little tricks, you can only deal with Chu Tianze. You're not qualified to deal with me."
Gu Ziqian's fingers tightened on his lap under the table, but he smiled slightly and said innocently, "I don't know what you're talking about?"
"Dare to do it but not admit it?" Chu Yaofeng curled his lip. "Do I have to invite the media that broke the LB scandal to your face for a confrontation before you'll admit it?"
“Not bad.” Gu Ziqian pursed his lips, his eyes revealing a murderous intent. “I was the one who had someone leak the information. I was just stating the facts. Even if you want to sue me, the judge won’t convict me of defamation. If Chu Tianze hadn’t been incompetent, I wouldn’t have had the chance to make such a big deal out of it, would I?”
Chu Yaofeng nodded, deeply agreeing with Chu Tianze's incompetence. Raising an eyebrow, he gave a wicked smirk, "I didn't have to do anything, just reaped the benefits of taking over LB's branch in B City. All thanks to you. I'm a person who clearly distinguishes right from wrong, and I hate owing favors. You helped me this time, and I'll keep your mouth shut for you. Gu Ziqian, you're a bit clever, but you're not ruthless enough for big things. If it were me, I would never leave any future troubles for myself. And let me remind you again—no offense intended, just for the sake of the deceased Gu Xiaoai—you can't fight city hall. This time it was me, but next time you'll be sitting down to chat, the person you're talking to might not be as easy to talk to as me."
"You and Xiao Ai still have feelings for each other?" Gu Ziqian frowned, looking quite surprised.
Ignoring the surprise in his eyes, Chu Yaofeng said nonchalantly, "Just a little bit."
Gu Ziqian clenched his fist tightly, then slowly relaxed it. What's the point of worrying about these things now that the person is dead?
He didn't care, but someone else did, cared a lot. Gu Li's face turned ashen as he ground his teeth, his long nails almost digging into his heart. He was extremely annoyed. This bastard was shameless, even slandering the dead. He was utterly wicked.
Having said all that needed to be said, Chu Yaofeng naturally saw no need to stay any longer. He would throw up if he were asked to eat with Gu Ziqian. He stood up tall and straight, and answered the phone casually when it rang.
"President, Miss Gu is looking for you everywhere. She injured A-mei, found out your whereabouts, and is on her way to XX Restaurant."
"Okay, I understand." After hanging up the phone, Chu Yaofeng's handsome face was gloomy, and his sharp eyes shot towards Gu Ziqian like arrows. Just thinking about how that willful and capricious woman dared to lay a hand on his subordinate made him extremely irritable. "Also, keep an eye on your sister and tell her to stop pestering me. I have no interest in her." After saying that, he walked away with heavy and fast steps.
Gu Ziqian closed his eyes, rubbing his temples as if he felt a headache and weakness. He wondered if his Gu family had owed the Chu family something in a past life; one of his sisters had already been killed by the Chu family, and the other was recklessly jumping into a fire pit—he couldn't stop her.
"Mr. Gu, are you alright? I'll take you to the hospital." As soon as Gu Li walked over, she smelled a faint tobacco scent. She knew that Gu Ziqian was allergic to tobacco, and that excessive smoking could be life-threatening.
High-end restaurants like this are non-smoking, and she couldn't think of anyone else besides Chu Yaofeng who would be so arrogant as to knowingly violate the rules.
If it were someone else, their older brother would definitely have stopped it. It was him, it must have been him, he did it on purpose.
Chu Yaofeng, you are truly wicked and deserve to die.
"It's alright," Gu Ziqian smiled slightly and stood up. "Ms. Gu, I'm flying to New York tomorrow. Would next week be suitable for the interview?"
"Whatever, I'm not in a hurry."
"Then I'll be going now, this meal is on me."
"No way, I promised to treat you." Gu Li hurriedly took out his wallet.
Gu Ziqian saw how serious she looked and genuinely found her interesting and unique. She was the first girl to insist on paying the bill when they ate together, and she was also the girl who left a very, very deep impression on him after only their second meeting.
His large hand gently touched the back of her hand, stopping her from taking money out of her wallet. "Next time, I'll be your boss from now on, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to treat me."
