Chapter 427 You Have to Make an Appointment
“Knock knock.”
The sudden knock on the door woke up the silent and ambiguous approach.
Wang Yuanling leaned back almost reflexively, his back hitting the back of the chair. A hint of imperceptible panic was revealed in his light voice: "Please come in."
Unlike her big reaction.
Gu Zhou leaned back slowly, then stood up straight and turned around calmly.
He met An Zhu who looked stunned.
He just went to the bathroom and came back to find an unexpected guest in the office. Shocked, An Zhu asked, "Gu, how are you, Mr. Gu?"
Gu Zhou nodded casually, his voice lazy and condescending: "It's not lunch time now, do you have anything else to do?"
Even if he had something to do, he would report to Wang Yuanling.
Now he was stunned by Gu Zhou's attitude of taking the initiative.
He vaguely felt that Gu Zhou seemed somewhat dissatisfied with his appearance.
Wang Yuanling quickly glanced at Gu Zhou, suppressed the ripples in his heart, and calmed himself down: "An Zhu, what's the matter?"
An Zhu wanted to report, but his eyes fell on Gu Zhou who was standing beside him in a leisurely posture, and he hesitated. After all, it involved internal affairs of the company, and it was not convenient to speak directly in front of "outsiders".
Gu Zhou seemed unaware of his concerns and sat down on the sofa with his long legs crossed and his body leaning back slightly. His sharp jawline was even more distinct in the light and shadow.
Those deep black eyes swept over Anzhu, revealing a hint of teasing: "Why? Did I disturb you?"
Although he expressed his worry, his expression and posture showed no sign of moving, and he was as relaxed as if he was in his own living room.
Wang Yuanling's heart was slightly moved, but his face remained calm, and his voice was gentle: "It's okay, Mr. Gu is not an outsider, you can speak."
An Zhu glanced at Gu Zhou. After hearing Wang Yuanling's words, the faint smile on the corner of his lips suddenly deepened a little. He was silent for two seconds before reporting the work to be handled in the afternoon.
It still involves matters that were originally under the jurisdiction of other senior executives.
After listening to them, Wang Yuanling gave solutions one by one.
After receiving the reply, Anzhu said: "Okay, Mr. Ling."
His eyes once again drifted uncontrollably towards the man on the sofa who had a powerful aura and looked contented as if he was patrolling his territory.
It seems like there are thousands of words stuck in my throat.
Wang Yuanling immediately asked: "Nothing else?"
Yasuke: “No more…”
Wang Yuanling smiled and said, "Okay, then you can go out first."
An Zhu said: "Okay."
Before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at Gu Zhou again quickly.
This glance unexpectedly met Gu Zhou's sidelong gaze.
That gaze was deep, sharp, and had the ability to see through everything, as if it had already caught every one of his previous glances, and was now silently and with a hint of amusement, firmly locking onto him.
An Zhu's heart skipped a beat, a chill ran up his spine, and he almost instinctively looked away, quickly closing the heavy office door in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
After closing the office door.
Anzhu took out his cell phone.
I opened the chat box with Anzhe, and the chat content was still lingering on Anzhe's words: [Take good care of her. Tell me immediately if anything happens.]
He was struggling over whether or not to tell An Zhe about Wang Yuanling's current deliberate attempt to get close to Gu Zhou.
But when he thought about what Wang Yuanling had specifically told him not to tell An Zhe.
He locked the screen again in agony.
In front of him, it seemed as if Gu Zhou's deep, oppressive gaze, as if he had control over everything, appeared again.
He felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart.
Mr. Ling... can you really control a dangerous person like Gu Zhou?
If only he knew the true purpose of Lingzong approaching him.
An Zhu's expression gradually became solemn.
Inside the office.
Gu Zhou's slender fingertips touched the side of his face from time to time, and the curve of his lips was quite dark: "Your assistant seems to be reluctant to see me in your office."
Wang Yuanling took a seat, stroking the hem of her skirt. Her eyelashes fluttered as she heard this. She explained, "No, Xiao An has been with me for a long time. He's very dedicated. He was probably surprised that Mr. Gu came without an appointment in advance. He was just a little taken aback."
Gu Zhou pondered this sentence and spoke lazily: "So from now on, if I come here, I have to make an appointment in advance?"
Wang Yuanling smiled politely, "Boss Gu is very busy, so it's a good idea to ask in advance. What if I need to go out at the last minute? Wouldn't that make Boss Gu's trip in vain?"
Gu Zhou's deep gaze stayed on her face for two seconds, as if he saw through something, but also seemed to be bored. He pursed his lips slightly, then nodded in understanding, and said in a long tone: "Okay."
He raised his hand, his eyes glancing over the priceless platinum watch on his wrist. He then stood up casually and looked at her from above. "The doctor told you to get more rest. You can sleep for an hour from now until 2 o'clock. I'll be back soon, so I won't disturb your lunch break."
He really comes and goes as he pleases.
Wang Yuanling's lips parted, then he stood up and smiled at him, "Okay, thank you for making this trip, Mr. Gu."
Gu Zhou replied lazily, "Yeah."
As soon as he finished speaking, he said, "That's right."
He lowered his head, took out a thin blue invitation from the lining of his suit, and handed it over.
"Engagement party invitation."
"Ah..." She sighed softly, took the invitation with both hands, and smiled faintly: "Thank you, Mr. Gu."
The invitation was foldable, and her eyes quickly swept over the normal words on it.
Finally, it falls at the end, on the eye-catching and somewhat deliberate handwritten lines.
【Gu Zhou】Sincerely invites 【Wang Yuanling】
She had received other people's engagement party invitations before.
Even writing the name of the invitee.
But it is rare that the names of the host and the invited guests are written in the same row.
And it was specially written by hand.
At first glance, I thought they were the protagonists of the engagement party.
Realizing what she was thinking, she felt a surge of inward turmoil.
A hint of uneasiness flashed across her watery eyes.
He quickly closed the invitation.
Facing his deep smile.
She pursed her lips slightly and showed a polite and gentle smile: "I will attend on time."
Gu Zhou smiled casually, his voice lazy and he said, "I'm looking forward to seeing you, Mr. Ling."
She smiled in response.
Follow him to the door.
Gu Zhou's bony hand was still on the door handle. He suddenly stopped and looked at her sideways: "Just send it here, you go back and rest."
Wang Yuanling said politely: "It's okay, there's still plenty of time. I'll take Mr. Gu downstairs."
Gu Zhoulan said to her: "Didn't President Ling just say that I'm one of his own? There's no need to be so polite."
Wang Yuanling choked slightly.
"Then Mr. Gu...take care."
Gu Zhou's voice was soft and coaxing, "Well, go to bed."
After he said that, he walked out and closed the office door.
Facing the closed door.
Wang Yuanling's watery eyes paused slightly, and her fingertips gently stroked the invitation in her hand.
His eyes dropped again, landing on the line that had both of their names written side by side.
I always feel like he did it on purpose.
Gu Zhou, who was standing outside the door, walked leisurely to the Anzu table with his hands in his pockets.
The light in front of my eyes dimmed.
An Zhu looked up blankly and met Gu Zhou who seemed to be smiling.
