Chapter 416 Why are you unwilling?
At this time, Gu Hanye came to the edge of the stage and held Jiuyao's hand: "What are you daydreaming about?"
Su Jiuyao quietly crumpled the note in her other hand and said, "I'm a little tired and want to go home."
The gloom in Gu Hanye's eyes mostly dissipated. He smiled and smoothed her hair. "Okay, let's go now."
Then he helped her take the flowers, took her back to the booth, said hello to Ouyang Zheng and Shi Chenyuan, and left the club.
In the VIP booth, Chu Lingfeng watched the two people leave and tightened his fingers.
Xiao Jiu was not in a hurry to see him, which was within Chu Lingfeng's expectations. After all, she was with Gu Hanye at the moment and would not come to look for him rashly.
But she didn't play that piece for him?
He also clearly saw that Jiuyao had crumpled the note into a ball, which surprised Chu Lingfeng greatly.
Could it be that she rejected him because of Gu Hanye?
"Young Master, who do you plan to have as your female companion to go to Mr. Zhong's banquet on the sixth day of the first lunar month?" Qiao Mang stood beside Chu Lingfeng with his head lowered. His tone was steady, but his eyes were always observing the young master's expression.
Chu Lingfeng tapped the marble table with his fingers, his eyes dark.
Mr. Zhong's banquet was grand and solemn. His original plan was to get rid of Gu Hanye before the New Year, bring Xiaojiu back personally, and then let her attend the banquet formally as the future hostess of the Chu family, and take the opportunity to announce to everyone that Xiaojiu was his, Chu Lingfeng's, woman.
Unfortunately, the assassination attempt on Gu Hanye was thwarted, and Xiaojiu seemed to be getting further and further away from him.
He lit a cigar, took a puff, and said, "Go tell Mu Ying to get ready."
He still had to attend Mr. Zhong's banquet. As for his female companion, he didn't want to have unnecessary entanglement with any daughter of a big family, so he decided to choose someone from his own family.
To the outside world, Mu Ying is just his personal nurse. In fact, she is his most capable intelligence officer and one of the people he trusts the most.
If Mu Ying had not secretly assisted him, it would probably take him several more years to overthrow his uncle and take back the Chu Group.
Mr. Zhong’s banquet is very important. Since it is impossible to bring Xiaojiu to attend as planned, Mu Ying is the best candidate. At least there will be no mistakes.
On the way back, because Gu Hanye had drunk some wine, Su Jiuyao took the initiative to drive.
Both of them remained silent. After arriving home, Jiuyao went straight to take a shower.
Seeing her casually hang her coat on the armrest of the sofa in the master bedroom, Gu Hanye helped her take it to the cloakroom and hang it up. He also checked her pockets to see if there was anything left in them.
As he reached into his pocket, his hand paused, and then he took out the little thing.
It was a crumpled little ball of paper.
He hesitated for a moment and opened the paper ball.
On it was the blessing that Chu Lingfeng wrote to her, and his hope that she would play the song "Sound of Slience".
Gu Hanye still remembers that song. The day Jiuyao came back from Switzerland was also her first time to Canglan Garden. After she finished touring the house, it started snowing outside, so she played a song for him in the study, which was this one.
It turned out that it was a song that she and the young master had shared memories of.
Thinking of this, Gu Hanye felt a little sad, but then he raised his lips slightly.
Tonight, Jiuyao did not agree to her young master's request to play for him. Could it be that the balance in Jiuyao's heart has already tilted towards him?
Afterwards, Gu Hanye used another bathroom. When he finished taking a shower and went to bed, Jiuyao had already lay down and turned off the lights.
He lifted the quilt and crawled in, wrapping his arms tightly around her soft waist from behind.
"Asleep?"
