Chapter 12: Substitute Literature
Lin Zhiwei was stunned for a long time.
Ming Zhao, this idiot... is so bold.
He actually started writing substitute literature right under people's noses.
The corners of her lips were stiff, and she picked up the wine glass and took a sip without saying a word.
I can't imagine what would happen if Zhou Tingyun found out...
I couldn't help but glance at Gu He again and again. Listening to him racking his brains to talk to Ming Zhao in a dry voice, I felt very uneasy.
Why doesn't this guy leave?
Ming Zhao was also a little impatient and interrupted his meaningless polite greetings.
"What do you want to say?"
The man was silent for a few seconds, then spoke in a low voice.
"sorry."
He always owed her an apology.
When he was young and energetic, his inferiority complex made him full of thorns. He had too strong self-esteem and used it as a way of self-protection, but he didn't realize that it was the most hurtful weapon.
Hearing this, Ming Zhao nodded indifferently.
"Oh, nothing."
Now that she has apologized, what else can she say?
Don't accuse her of being unreasonable later.
Thinking of this, he also asked with concern, "By the way, is your childhood sweetheart okay?"
Gu He's heart sank.
"Zhao Zhao, she and I... have nothing to do with each other. I was just entrusted by my parents to take care of her. I..."
Lin Zhiwei curled the corners of her lips, a typical scumbag trilogy.
I'm sorry, she and I have nothing to do with each other. I love you.
I laughed when I heard it.
"Zhao Zhao, I have transferred the money back to you," his throat was dry and he moved his lips.
"Can we..."
restart.
"No need to return it." Ming Zhao didn't believe him at all and interrupted him casually, "We each take what we need."
She used to like his face.
As for his personality, it’s pretty good.
But what kind of person is she?
If I had known that he and his childhood sweetheart had such a close relationship, I would never have spent money on them.
Not only did he not tell her that he liked someone, but he also accepted her help with an attitude of forbearance, feeling extremely humiliated in his heart.
Not only did she spend money but she also had to bear the stigma of using her power to break up a couple, which was really unlucky.

On the other side, on the second floor of the mansion.
"Master Zhou," Chen Zhou casually clinked his glass, "Miss Fang from Tongsen Group is here, don't you want to go meet her?"
Chen Zhou is the CEO of Yuanfeng Technology. He has a partnership with Huayu Group and focuses on emerging industries such as new energy and artificial intelligence.
I met Zhou Tingyun in the business world, and we became more familiar with each other after a few interactions.
"No need." Zhou Tingyun said.
The man tutted his tongue twice, "Are you going to become a monk?"
"I don't need to explain the benefits of a marriage between Huayu and Tongsen. The world is full of people seeking profit. How come you have no desires after taking this position?"
Zhou Tingyun glanced at him calmly.
"If you want to marry Tongsen, you can try to get it yourself."
Chen Zhou shrugged and fell silent.
He was just saying it casually. After all, if the two of them could get along so well, they must have the same values. Sacrificing marriage for profit was not his style.
I just think Zhou Tingyun doesn't have anyone he likes, so it wouldn't hurt to meet him. Maybe he'll be right for her...
The next second, I accidentally glanced at his phone screen.
In Xiaoguai's chat box, Zhou Tingyun asked the other party what he was doing and whether he had eaten.
“…”
A perverted sister complex.
He looked away speechlessly, but paused when he saw something not far away.
Hey, isn’t that Mr. Gu from Lianfeng Technology?
Lianfeng Technology has been in the limelight in recent years, with its stock price and market value rising steadily.
Recently, we are competing with Yuanfeng for the same artificial intelligence project.
After watching for a while, he couldn't help but whistle and sigh.
"I never thought that Mr. Gu, who has a spine so strong he could kill someone, would be so servile."
He poked Zhou Tingyun, who was groveling, with his elbow.
"Hey, whose daughter is that? I don't think I've ever seen her before. She's really awesome."
"Look at Gu He like that. I can't stand it anymore."
Zhou Tingyun was not interested at first until he heard Gu He's name.
He looked up.
His good sister, who had never replied to his messages, suddenly appeared in the mansion.
Chatting animatedly with others.

"Is it because of your brother?"
Ming Zhao was stunned when he heard the person in front of him suddenly mention Zhou Tingyun.
Zhou Tingyun did express his dislike for him and had harshly forced her to break up.
But isn't he the one who is essentially wrong in this matter?
How can you still be so confident...
Ming Zhao was speechless. "What does it have to do with my brother? It was obviously you who started it first..."
Gu He's mind was full of the discussions he had just heard, and his expression became increasingly ugly.
That old man must have tricked her.
He stepped forward, interrupted her coldly, and asked.
"You think it has nothing to do with him, but what about him? Does he think so too?"
Ming Zhao was startled by the man's sudden aggressiveness and suddenly tightened his lips.
What is this guy doing all of a sudden?
But she refused to lose her temper and held on without retreating.
He pulled back Lin Zhiwei, who was about to step forward to protect his child with a cold face, and glared at him fiercely.
"It's inexplicable, get out of the way."
It is a sign of losing temper.
Gu He paused, then quickly chose to go along with the situation and soften his attitude.
"Zhao Zhao, I don't mean anything else." He comforted her.
"I just want to say, don't you think you two are too close?"
?
You're crazy.
What does it have to do with him whether she and Zhou Tingyun are close or not!
Ming Zhao originally felt that Zhou Tingyun was deliberately keeping a distance from her, and Gu He's words perfectly hit her sore spot.
"What do you care?" She was so angry that her cheeks turned red.
Seeing the girl like this, Gu He became anxious.
"But you two are not kissing!"
Another landmine.
What she hated most was the fact that they were not related by blood, and Gu He even mentioned it to her face. If it weren't for the inconvenience of the dress, Ming Zhao would have wanted to kick him.
"So what!"
The man couldn't believe it, and his voice unconsciously rose.
"Zhao Zhao, do you know what they are saying now?"
Her anger was interrupted and she was stunned, full of confusion.
"say what?"
"Speaking of you and Zhou Tingyun——"
The conversation ended abruptly here.
?
Ming Zhao not only loves to listen to other people's gossip, but also never misses his own gossip. He frowned and asked, "What is it?"
Gu He's face turned ashen.
What is he doing?
Are you going to be their tool for breaking the window paper for free?
The man's voice returned to calm, "Nothing."
? ?
I hate people who only say half the words!
Ming Zhao was about to curse his credit card limit when a low, mellow, pleasant voice rang out.
"Zhao Zhao."
Gentle and calm, with no emotion to be heard.
Ming Zhao felt a little nervous and looked over subconsciously.
Not far away, a man with calm features and a tall, straight figure stood out from the crowd, naturally exuding the steady aura of someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
The hand holding the wine glass has slightly raised light blue veins, with distinct veins and a vague sense of control.
Meeting the dark gaze, Ming Zhao bit his lip, looking very weak.
I just told her last night not to associate with Gu He, but now she has been chatting with him several times.
The cold and indifferent gaze made her fingertips curl up and tiny goose bumps appeared on her skin.
The place on her cheek where light finger marks had been left behind was now burning faintly like a brand. It felt like she was being pinched again, neither too hard nor too light, and a gentle voice was used to question her why she wasn't obeying.
