Chapter 374: Love Grows Over Time
A strange feeling arose in Tan Wenzhou's heart.
He looked at Gu Zhou, who was still in a carefree state, and the inquiry in his eyes became deeper and deeper.
Gu Zhou did not dodge, but looked at him calmly.
Chen Guan, standing by, was completely unaware of the invisible undercurrent between the two of them. He spoke frankly, "Honestly, Ms. Ling is the most courageous, careful, and kind-hearted girl I have ever met. She is truly special. Wenzhou, I understand why you have liked her for so long."
Gu Zhou's cold, dark eyes instantly glanced at Chen Guan, and he pursed his lips, saying in an inexplicable tone, "Why? You like it too?"
Chen Guan was furious: "What nonsense are you talking about? How can I like what my brother likes? I just admire it, pure admiration."
His shouting made the atmosphere even more tense.
Tan Wenzhou's eyes flickered behind his glasses, and he asked, "So what happened next? How did the Yuanling help you? You were drugged, so your consciousness must have been blurred, right?"
There was something else behind his words, a temptation hidden in them.
Gu Zhou's dark eyes flashed with sternness: "No matter how blurry my consciousness is, I can still distinguish between what I should do and what I shouldn't do."
Tan Wenzhou's tense nerves finally relaxed imperceptibly.
"Yuan Ling didn't say how she found out someone was trying to drug you?"
He was asking, but he was looking at Gu Zhou.
Gu Zhou said lazily: "Don't you know that she has always been smart?"
Chen Guan interrupted: "Yes, President Ling is really smart. He discovered the clues early and made preparations to catch them red-handed, but..."
"But what?" Tan Wenzhou looked nervous.
Chen Guan tutted his words, "Boss Ling is too soft-hearted. He said those two women weren't the masterminds, they were forced to do this, and later on, it seems he even funded them. That's probably the case. Ask Ah Zhou, he knows better than me."
Meeting Tan Wenzhou's gaze.
Gu Zhou's eyes were distracted: "Just as he said."
Tan Wenzhou couldn't see any flaws in his lazy expression, so he asked half-jokingly, "What do you think of being rescued by a beauty?"
Gu Zhou didn't even blink, staring at the boiling grilled fish in front of him, and said slowly: "Ideas?"
The ending tone is very long.
He suddenly raised his dark eyes and fixed them precisely on Tan Wenzhou's behind his glasses. There was no trace of distraction in them, only a calm sharpness. "What do you think I could think of?"
Chen Guan didn't understand the twists and turns between them and stumbled upon them: "Pfft, you don't even know what he could be thinking. I even teased him the other day, saying that even in this situation, you can still remain calm. Look at Boss Ling, he offered a helping hand without any concern for the status of a man and a woman, disregarding his own safety. He held on until I arrived, and Boss Ling left. So Boss Ling and Ah Zhou really have a pure revolutionary cooperative friendship."
Tan Wenzhou frowned slightly and fell into thought.
But his attention was quickly drawn back to Chen Guan's voice.
Chen Guan: "Hey, it's boiling, come on, let's eat. I specially asked the store to put a few more candles to burn underneath, so this boiling pot is no different from eating in the restaurant."
The three of them sat on the sofa, taking turns eating bites, and finished the grilled fish.
Gu Zhou started to lose interest as he continued to pick up the food.
Pick it up yourself.
trouble.
He gradually reduced the number of times he picked up fish, and later simply put down his chopsticks.
Once you are full.
Chen Guan slumped backward, but his mouth was not idle either. He started a small talk: "Hey, Wenzhou, I haven't asked you how your contact with Ling Zong has been lately. I see that you post on your Moments quite frequently."
Tan Wenzhou smiled bitterly: "I mentioned this to Azhou when I came here. It seems that Yuan Ling treats me as just an ordinary friend."
Chen Guan immediately said: "Pfft, I see, we are no longer just ordinary friends."
Gu Zhou stared at him with dark eyes.
Tan Wenzhou was confused: "Xiao Guan, what do you mean by this?"
Chen Guan laughed: "Last night, Ling Zong asked me what I like. This clearly shows that she is interested in you and wants to know your preferences."
After being surprised, Tan Wenzhou looked delighted: "Really?"
Chen Guan: "Tsk, how could I lie to you? If you don't believe me, ask Ah Zhou, he knows about this too."
Tan Wenzhou immediately looked at Gu Zhou, his face showing uncontrollable surprise.
Gu Zhou's lips gradually straightened, and his voice was relaxed: "She just wanted to express her gratitude for seeing you perform for the first time. I suggested that she send you flowers."
Chen Guan was puzzled: "Huh? How do you know that human spirits always think this way?"
Gu Zhou glanced at him lazily: "If she didn't say that herself, did I make it up?"
The surprise on Tan Wenzhou's face gradually turned into disappointment, and the light in his eyes dimmed.
Seeing his lost look, Chen Guan nudged Gu Zhou with his elbow and condemned him with his eyes: What are you doing? Why are you stabbing your brother in the heart?
Gu Zhou looked at him lazily, with a nonchalant look on his face.
Not a bit of guilt.
Chen Guan couldn't bear to watch it anymore and patted Tan Wenzhou on the shoulder: "Wenzhou, don't worry, I'll help you."
Gu Zhou looked at Chen Guan with a cold gaze: "How can you help?"
Chen Guanli said: "It's not that simple. Just create an opportunity for them to be together. Feelings are something that accumulate over time. As long as they spend more time together, they will fall in love."
Chen Guan was very quick to act. He pulled out his phone and said, "Isn't there a new American movie coming out recently? I told Ms. Ling that a friend gave me some movie tickets and I need someone to help warm up the crowd. I can't find anyone else right now. Ms. Ling is so kind, she'll definitely help me. After this, I won't go. I'll let you two watch the movie alone. The dark environment is perfect for cultivating relationships."
Gu Zhou said coldly: "She can't go."
Chen Guan and Tan Wenzhou were both stunned.
Chen Guan was confused: "Why?"
Gu Zhou said slowly: "She is busy giving me the budget for Health City recently, so she is busy."
Chen Guan tutted his words and complained to him: "You are the stumbling block on the road to the sublimation of their relationship."
Gu Zhou said lazily: "I will invest billions in this project."
The air is quiet.
Chen Guan: "Okay, okay, the project is important. We've invested so much money, so we really need to speed up the progress. Once the budget is ready, remember to tell me. I need to help Wenzhou make an appointment with Mr. Ling."
Tan Wenzhou smiled and said, "Forget it, Xiaoguan, I'll just make an appointment with Yuan Ling myself."
Chen Guan had no choice but to give up: "Okay, anyway, just remember, more contact, only then there is hope. If she is not free, you can go find her. Oh, by the way, isn't Azhou her neighbor? You might as well move in with Azhou's house. Anyway, Azhou has to be hospitalized recently and can't go home."
Gu Zhou smiled: "You are quite good at making arrangements."
Chen Guan teased: "You are not so stingy that you would not be happy to let your brother stay at your home for a while, right?"
Gu Zhou's dark eyes flashed with coldness, and the corners of his lips raised a cold arc: "If you have nothing to do, go to work, and stop giving bad advice all day long."
Chen Guan was dissatisfied: "How is this a bad idea? Love grows over time, don't you understand? Only by seeing each other every day can there be a chance."
Gu Zhou pursed his lips: "If she doesn't want to, have you ever thought that this is considered harassment?"
Chen Guan's confidence instantly waned, after all, what he said made some sense.
Tan Wenzhou smiled helplessly: "Thank you, Xiaoguan, but I want to take it slow. Ah Zhou is right. If she doesn't want to see me voluntarily and I disturb her too often, I'm afraid she will be disgusted with me."
Chen Guan scratched his head: "Okay, love matters really can't be rushed."
"Sizzle."
Gu Zhou's phone vibrated.
He lowered his eyes and saw the sender's name. He subconsciously pressed down the screen of his phone and glanced at the two people who didn't notice his action.
Unlock.
I saw the message from Wang Yuanling: [Mr. Gu, is there anything you'd like to eat for breakfast tomorrow morning? I'll bring it over.]
