Chapter 276 There is no such thing as a free lunch
Gu Zhou looked at her with dark eyes.
This face.
Sure enough, she looks better when she smiles sweetly.
He pursed his lips slightly, his dark eyes darkening. “Businessmen are always cautious, especially when faced with something that falls from the sky.”
Wang Yuanling's eyes moved slightly.
Is he explaining?
Unsure for a moment, she seized on his unclear words and extended them, "Mr. Gu already said it was a pie in the sky. Then why didn't Mr. Gu think about it? Why didn't others eat such a good pie themselves? Why did they have to give you most of it? Isn't this act of making concessions a form of genuine sincerity?"
He kept saying "Mr. Gu" on the left and "Mr. Gu" on the right.
Nicknames are respectful.
The rebuttal was full of thorns.
Watching the color gradually returning to her face, her eyes, when she glared at me, were like a pool of vast and lively water.
Gu Zhou raised his eyebrows casually: "Pies often appear near traps."
Wang Yuanling's expression paused, and her eyes grew even colder. "Then Mr. Gu should stay away from the pie. Let others pick it up."
Her lips were tightly drawn and her fair cheeks were stained with obvious anger.
Gu Zhou's lips curled up slightly, but his voice was extremely obscure and deep: "No one has ever dared to pick up the pie prepared for me."
She looked up in confusion and met his black eyes which were darker than the night.
The sound of loud singing, muffled by the walls and doors, could be heard from the corridor one after another.
Lively, joyful and relaxing.
But the relaxed feeling they had while singing did not reach this corner that was forgotten by the hustle and bustle at all.
Obscure, mysterious and quiet.
There are incomprehensible emotions surging.
Wang Yuanling was confused and heartbroken: "Boss Gu, what do you mean?"
"Azhou?"
at the same time.
Chen Guan called out in confusion.
He saw from a distance that Gu Zhou had his back to him, and it seemed that there was a woman hidden in his arms?
He initially thought he was seeing things.
Take a closer look.
It’s true.
I was instantly drawn forward by this big melon.
His eyes, which were filled with gossip, froze when he saw Wang Yuanling's gentle and beautiful face.
"Ling, Mr. Ling? Why are you here?"
Wang Yuanling glanced at Gu Zhou, who had not yet put down his hand.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across her watery eyes.
She quickly pushed his hand away and stepped out of his arms.
He gave Chen Guanyang a polite smile: "Hello, Mr. Chen, I came here with a client tonight, and it just so happened that..."
As she spoke, she unconsciously glanced at Gu Zhou.
The laziness was made even worse by the dim yellow light overhead.
He looked at her with a half-smile as she explained.
Wang Yuanling pursed her lips a little and said vaguely: "I happened to meet Mr. Gu, so we chatted for a while."
Chen Guan glanced at Gu Zhou, feeling somewhat suspicious.
Although he still looked as nonchalant as ever.
But why does it feel like this guy seems a little more energetic than just now in the private room?
At least he didn't have that kind of cold and indifferent feeling that was so daunting just now.
Chen Guan: "I was wondering why you had been out for so long and hadn't returned yet. Turns out you were chatting with Mr. Ling."
Wang Yuanling hurriedly explained, "Yes, we just happened to meet, so we chatted for a while. Mr. Chen, Mr. Gu, I'll be leaving first. My client is still waiting for me."
Chen Guan immediately said: "Okay."
Gu Zhou raised his eyebrows: "Are you going back?"
Hidden in that voice was the incomprehension that she was asking for trouble.
Wang Yuanling met his dark eyes and smiled meaningfully, "They are all important clients of mine. Who knows, they might even become partners in my new projects. I've been out for too long, and it's not good for them to just sit around waiting. Sorry, I have to excuse myself."
Gu Zhou pulled his lip, his meaning unclear: "Really?"
Chen Guan was straightforward and explained for her: "What nonsense are you asking? She came here with a client, and the client hasn't left yet, so how can she leave?"
Wang Yuanling's eyes curved slightly, and her smile was polite yet distant: "Then you guys play, I'll be leaving first."
Gu Zhou stared at her with his dark eyes without saying a word.
Chen Guan responded quickly: "Okay."
Before Wang Yuanling left.
He glanced at Gu Zhou quietly again.
I saw him leaning against the wall with his back, lost in the light and shadow, and I couldn't see the expression on his face.
There was a trace of thought in her eyes.
The sound of Gauguins stepping on the floor was lost in the blanket.
Wait until you can no longer hear the sound of her shoes.
Gu Zhou put his hands in his pockets and straightened his body casually.
She raised her eyes and looked directly at Chen Guan, who was standing with his arms folded and a look of suspicion on his face.
He said lazily: "What?"
Chen Guan narrowed his eyes, his gaze examining the subject: "No, do you two need to be so close to each other when chatting?"
He was staring at me.
Gu Zhou didn't even lie or react unnaturally: "Then should I sit on the left wall and she on the right wall, and talk across the aisle? Do you think she has a loud voice, or do you think I have super hearing?"
Chen Guan was left speechless.
The sounds here are indeed mixed.
If you stand too far away.
I really can't hear it clearly.
But Chen Guan just felt something was wrong.
However.
Gu Zhou didn't give him the chance to ask more questions.
He stretched out his long legs and headed straight back towards the private room.
-
Wang Yuanling returned to the private room.
Mr. Xue has disappeared.
"Mr. Xue said he had something to do at home, so he went back first."
Wang Yuanling understood.
What do you mean by "something happened at home"? It's obvious that he is too guilty to stay.
But it’s good to see him again.
She would get nauseous.
Her inner thoughts didn't affect her gentle smile at all. "Sorry everyone, I have some matters to attend to at the group. I've asked them to put the order on my account. Please feel free to play as you please."
Everyone said, "Thank you, Mr. Ling.", "Oh, what a shame. We were hoping to hear Mr. Ling sing."
Wang Yuanling said politely, "I'll show off my ugliness to you all again next time I get a chance."
She picked up her bag and walked out of the private room.
All the way along the corridor.
Walking and walking.
I always feel a chill on my back.
She frowned and turned around.
But I only saw a waiter carrying a fruit plate.
Is she overthinking it?
Why does she feel like someone is following her?
Her watery eyes were filled with confusion, and she quickened her pace, waiting for the elevator door to open.
She stepped in quickly.
The moment the elevator door closed.
Gu Zhou, who had been hiding in the private room, walked out slowly.
Looking at the closed elevator door.
He took a deep breath of the cigarette he got back from the private room. The smoke lingered and a deep thought flashed across his dark eyes.
-
As soon as you get on the bus.
Wang Yuanling kicked off her high heels, pressed her pink fingertips against her forehead, and sank deeply into the car seat with exhaustion.
Three days have passed since the day I left Gu Zhou's office in a state of suspicion and pretended to be angry.
This guy is really patient.
No one came to see her.
Looking at this project from all angles, the biggest beneficiary is Gu Zhou.
If it were an ordinary person.
I've been bewildered for a long time.
But Gu Zhou has a complicated mind and is extremely scheming.
So tonight.
She deliberately didn't resist.
I just wanted to see if this person still had any empathy that a human being should have.
She tried to exploit his empathy and create an opportunity for them to meet.
The results also proved that although this person has a black heart, he at least has some humanity.
When she thought about how she had endured and not resisted tonight in order to create an opportunity to talk to Gu Zhou, she was touched a few times by the dirty hands.
She extremely disliked herself at this moment.
I wanted to rush back and wash myself from head to toe.
"It's so annoying." She complained softly.
I'm tired of being harassed.
Fan Gu Zhou is a difficult person to understand.
He was harder to understand than anyone she had ever met before.
She was still too confident and thought everything would go according to her plan.
Anyway.
Tonight she succeeded in making her statement.
If you, Gu Zhou, don't want this project, I will find someone else to cooperate with.
But as to whether Gu Zhou would fall for this provocation...
Everything is still uncertain.
She was thinking about what plan B to adopt if this method didn't work.
"Ding Dong." A new message came in on the phone.
Who is sending a message at this time?
She held the phone with a soft grip, the screen half tilted.
Wait to see the sender's name.
She sat up like a carp, and the half-tilted screen straightened up in an instant.
The light from the screen made her watery eyes appear even brighter.
Gu Zhou: [Tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, at the company?]
