Chapter 314 Are you sure it wasn’t you who offended anyone?
When my shoulder bumped into his for the umpteenth time.
Wang Yuanling quietly moved a little further outside the umbrella.
But it just moved.
Gu Zhou's lazy voice came from above: "Are you dissatisfied with this outfit and planning to buy a new one if it gets wet?"
Wang Yuanling smiled wryly and said politely, "No, I'm just worried that Mr. Gu might be squeezed by me."
Whether Gu Zhou accepted her courtesy depended on his mood.
But now.
He was obviously in a bad mood.
"There's no need to worry too much."
"Okay, Mr. Gu." Wang Yuanling moved back honestly.
300 meters ahead.
Finally saw the dessert shop.
Wang Yuan's spiritual energy was smooth.
Finally, I don't have to squeeze under a small umbrella with him and have endless physical contact. It's so embarrassing.
They sat by the folding window.
As soon as Wang Yuanling sat down, the hem of her short skirt shrunk to her legs. She quickly grabbed the bag of wet clothes and covered her legs with it, while using her other hand to pull the hem of her skirt down.
But it can cover the front, but cannot cover the large white area on the sides.
She was in distress.
Gu Zhou opposite suddenly stood up.
Wang Yuanling's attention was successfully diverted to him.
He picked up the stool with one hand and sat down beside her, his long and strong legs spread apart, blocking her completely.
at first glance.
She even seemed to be trapped in his arms.
Wang Yuanling paused.
I looked at Gu Zhou in surprise as he sat down and flipped through the menu aimlessly.
"The rain splashed on my face." He raised his eyes, turned the menu in his hand and faced her: "I'll drink Qingbuliang, what do you want?"
I simply gave the explanation for why I sat down.
Wang Yuanling's heart ached when he saw his lazy and careless face.
"I'll take Qingbuliang as well...Thank you."
Now you don’t have to worry about your skirt showing.
But sitting so close to Gu Zhou.
Instead, she has to worry about this issue...
After Gu Zhou finished placing his order, he handed the menu back to the waiter.
To avoid the embarrassment of eye contact.
She quickly cut to the point, "Boss Gu, in your opinion, what is the purpose of the people following us?"
Gu Zhou leaned back in his chair, his lazy eyes scanning the innocent look on her face: "In my opinion?"
She was busy all the time.
Gu Zhou raised the corners of his lips and said in a drawn-out tone, "I don't understand."
Wang Yuanling waited anxiously for a reply: "?"
Receiving her questioning gaze, Gu Zhou did not feel guilty at all. Instead, his eyes were filled with amusement: "I'm not his inner worm, how can I know his purpose?"
You don't know his purpose, why did you call me out?!
It also got wet in the rain.
Wang Yuanling was disheveled in the wind.
Even though he cursed Gu Zhou in his heart.
But on the surface, he tried his best to maintain peace.
Seeing her fake smile, she was hiding her desire to bite him to death.
Gu Zhou's eyes were filled with interest, and he changed the subject: "But if you analyze it from my perspective."
Wang Yuanling's complaints suddenly stopped.
Pay close attention and listen immediately.
Gu Zhou stared at her.
The tip of his tongue slowly licked the inside of his mouth, and an ambiguous laugh escaped from between his lips, like a hunter admiring prey struggling in a trap: "I want to ask, Mr. Ling, did you really not offend anyone? I always feel that person is coming for you. After all, I have been here countless times and have never encountered such a situation."
His suggestive tone made Wang Yuanling's heart beat faster and his mouth dry.
The rain outside is getting heavier.
The slanting raindrops bounced against the window and splashed on her face.
Cold.
It repelled her hot heart.
A world of ice and fire, increasing anxiety.
"Mr. Gu, what you said is really interesting. Who could I possibly offend?" She suddenly chuckled, her side braid brushing against her swan neck. "I've only just taken over Wang's company. I don't even know many people, let alone offending them."
Gu Zhou leaned his hands on the edge of the table, tapping the glass layer on the table with his long fingers. The cool fragrance of pine and cypress on his body suddenly approached with the wind.
She felt as if she was being suffocated by layers of surroundings.
"Really? I'm just overthinking it?" He spoke lazily, his meaning unclear.
Wang Yuanling narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm afraid so."
She glanced sideways at the waiter who had brought over a bowl of sweet soup and took the initiative to end the conversation: "Since J's side said it was a misunderstanding, perhaps we really are overthinking it. There are so many people in this family, so the sweet soup should taste good."
She smiled.
She gently pushed the sugar water that the waiter had brought to her first according to the principle of ladies first in front of him.
Meeting his deep black eyes, she smiled gently, "Mr. Gu, you go first."
Gu Zhou stared at her without blinking, smiling faintly: "Thank you, President Ling."
"You're welcome."
The topic ends.
This means they came out in the rain just to drink sugar water.
Wang Yuanling quietly observed his nonchalant appearance and did not find anything unusual.
This made it hard for her not to be suspicious.
This person was deliberately looking for excuses to trick someone into coming out to drink sweet soup with him.
She is the first choice as a big victim.
She lowered her head and drank the last sip of the sugar water, thoughts welling up in her eyes.
This time I wanted to take advantage of the situation and lure the opponent into a trap, but it seems I failed.
The old man's power was still too great. Even though he was caught following someone, he was able to let the person go so nonchalantly without exposing his identity at all.
Never mind, she was just being too hasty.
She was lost in thought, caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye, and looked sideways.
The waiter was clearing up the leftovers from the guests at the next table.
He had a rose tattooed on the back of his hand.
She had also seen people with tattoos on the back of their hands when she was a child.
Although I didn't see what that person looked like.
But she still can't forget the tattoo pattern, which is a roaring tiger head with bared teeth, and it appears in countless of her nightmares.
"Have you finished eating?" Gu Zhou's casual voice brought her back to her senses.
She shifted her gaze back to his face.
Her eyes curved slightly: "Well, I'm done. I'll go pay the bill. After we pay, we'll go back."
"I've bought it." Gu Zhou said lazily.
Wang Yuanling paused. Had she bought it before? She hadn't noticed when.
But it’s just a bowl of sugar water, so just accept it.
She smiled lightly: "Okay, thank you Mr. Gu for treating me to some sugar water."
Gu Zhou remained silent.
The rain is still falling heavily.
Water began to accumulate in the low-lying areas, forming small puddles.
"The rain is still heavy..." She looked up, and the rain formed meteor-like streaks under the reflection of the street lights.
Even with an umbrella, you will still get soaked.
So she said, "Let's walk under the shop awning first. When we reach the end and there is no road, we can walk out of the awning. At least we can get less wet." She turned her head to look at Gu Zhou and suggested.
Gu Zhou smiled and said, "Guess how many seconds it would take us to get soaked if we walked back now?"
Wang Yuanling was silent for two seconds, then glanced at the commercial street next to him and asked tentatively, "Then let's go shopping again? Let's wait until the rain subsides."
Gu Zhou raised his lips casually: "Since Mr. Ling wants to go shopping, then I will accompany you."
Wang Yuanling: "...", raised a gentle fake smile: "Okay, thank you for troubling Mr. Gu."
Gu Zhou nodded casually, without the slightest bit of politeness, and accepted her thanks frankly: "Shopping is quite troublesome, but I can't go back now, so it's okay to accompany Ling Zong for a walk."
Wang Yuanling's teeth were almost broken as he smiled forcefully: "Please, Mr. Gu."
Gu Zhou's eyes held a lazy smile: "You too, Mr. Ling."
If I could go back half an hour.
She would never agree to come out and drink any sugary drinks!
But now.
There's no use regretting it.
Gu Zhou in front was walking slowly past the shop with his hands behind his back.
She was reluctant but had to follow.
Until she saw the shop, her eyes lit up.
Gu Zhou followed her gaze and raised his eyebrows.
