Chapter 9: Midsummer, You Still Need to Apologize
He had already done that with Bai Yinyin, yet he still wanted her to be Mrs. Gu. Was he trying to use her as a shield for the two of them so that Bai Yinyin could continue to develop in the entertainment industry for a few more years?
The cell phone rang. It was Fu Xiaoer calling.
"Baoer, how about it, did my brother agree to cooperate with you?"
Shengxia recounted what had happened before. While Fu Xiaoer was scolding Gu Huaizhou, she couldn't help but speak to her brother.
"My brother shouldn't be that kind of person."
Midsummer is silent.
Fu Xiaoer said apologetically: "I can't help you."
"It's okay. There will be other work to come. If I don't get it, it's my fate."
Fu Xiaoer felt relieved to see that Shengxia had recovered, but she still felt bad.
Shengxia comforted her: "Don't think too much, I'm going to work."
"good."
The next morning, she went to the company.
Xiao Meng took the initiative to come over and report: "Mr. Sheng, there was a delivery before you came. I put it on your desk."
"good."
Seeing that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, Shengxia asked, "Anything else?"
"Mr. Chen from the Chen Group invited you to dinner tonight. Did I... withdraw?"
Mr. Chen from the Chen Group is not a good person. He often takes advantage of women. Of course, Shengxia didn't know this at first. The two of them got along very well, and Mr. Chen was a very good pretender.
Later, as we got to know each other and heard from others, I finally understood what kind of person Mr. Chen was.
She tried her best to avoid meeting him, but after all, it was in the early days when she had few orders that Mr. Chen gave her orders and helped her get to where she is today. It would be awkward to always refuse.
"No, just reserve a seat for me."
Xiao Meng was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay."
Shengxia picked up the express on the desk and opened it. Seeing that there was a scar removal cream inside, she knew who sent it.
Shengxia threw it directly into the trash can.
The cell phone rang, and Shengxia saw that the caller was Gu Huaizhou. She was about to hang up without thinking, but then she remembered something and picked up the call.
"Did you receive the scar cream?"
"When are we getting divorced?"
Shengxia did not answer, but asked directly.
"Yinyin has already told me that she doesn't need your apology, but you did something wrong first, so I think you should still apologize."
Shengxia didn't say anything.
"I hurt you in a hurry last night. It was my fault. Giving you the scar cream is my apology.
We still have to get along with each other in the future. If you really don't want to apologize, you can come back and take care of her for a while, and this matter will be offset."
Shengxia was so angry that she laughed.
"Gu Huaizhou, do you want to listen to what you said? If you are here for something else next time, don't call me. I will only answer your call when you go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with me to get the marriage certificate."
Just hung up the phone.
When Gu Huaizhou heard the sudden interruption of the voice, his face darkened.
Remembering that I had something else to do, I called her again, but Shengxia didn't answer.
Gu Huaizhou could only send a message: Grandpa has come out of the temple, let's go back to the old house tomorrow.
Shengxia still didn't reply, but in Gu Huaizhou's opinion, if her forehead was not really hit badly and he hadn't been tormented all night, he wouldn't have called her and talked to her properly.
He really gave her face!
By the way, he actually forgot to ask her about the 10 million.
Shengxia was so bold that she spent ten million on him without even asking him.
…
Before leaving for Golden Bay, Shengxia saw a message from Gu Huaizhou. "Grandpa Gu?" He was probably the best person in the Gu family to her.
It was indeed a while since she had seen the old man, and she should go see him, but not with Gu Huaizhou.
According to the address Xiao Meng sent her, Shengxia went directly to Jinhai Bay.
When she walked in, she saw that the seat Xiao Meng had booked for her was pretty good.
This is not a private room, but the environment is very good and Mr. Chen can't find any fault with it.
Golden Bay is a place for eating steamed seafood. Shengxia can't stand the fishy smell of seafood, but Mr. Chen likes it, so she forces herself to accompany him.
Mr. Chen was enjoying his meal and suddenly grabbed Shengxia's hand.
"Boss Sheng, I've heard everything about you. People like us are completely different from Boss Gu. He doesn't want you, but I do."
Shengxia quickly took her hand away: "Mr. Chen, you've had too much to drink."
"I'm not drunk, I'm sober. As long as you're with me, I will definitely..."
Mr. Chen came directly towards her, and Shengxia stood up immediately.
"Mr. Chen, please respect yourself."
She grabbed her bag and said, "Mr. Chen, I'll call your assistant later and have him pick you up. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Where are you going?"
Mr. Chen simply pulled her skirt down.
Although I was wearing safety pants, I could see the area below from the second floor, and there was already a lot of noise here, so everyone looked over.
Shengxia was extremely embarrassed.
"Mr. Chen, don't go too far."
Mr. Chen stood up and was about to come over. Shengxia was about to lift her skirt, but Mr. Chen didn't give her a chance and moved towards her.
Shengxia couldn't escape, nor could she stay, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
Suddenly, a person's clothes were wrapped around her waist and she was lifted up sideways.
"Mr. Fu."
Mr. Chen stopped pretending to be drunk and immediately stood up straight and called for help.
Noticing that Fu Beicheng was looking at the skirt in his hand, Mr. Chen immediately handed it to him.
"The skirt is for you."
"Throw it away, it's dirty!"
Fu Beicheng directly carried Shengxia out.
Mr. Chen stared blankly. It's over! What's going on with Fu Beicheng? Could he like Shengxia?
The reason why Mr. Chen dared to do so before was because the whole city knew that when Gu Huaizhou was getting married to Shengxia, he was called away by the mistress.
Although there was no news of divorce later, it was obvious that Gu Huaizhou did not take Shengxia seriously at all.
He had long had his eyes on Shengxia, and if it weren't for Gu Huaizhou, he would have taken action long ago.
But what's going on with Fu Beicheng?
Aren't they mortal enemies?
I heard that this time Fu Beicheng got a new cooperation, and Shengxia went to talk to him in person, but he didn't even give her a chance. How could he have saved Shengxia?
But on second thought, Fu Beicheng was just being a gentleman. After all, he took action because he saw that there was no hope of saving the person and it might affect him.
It won't affect Mr. Chen at all.
Shengxia was about to be sent to Fu Beicheng's Altkaman car, but Shengxia stopped him.
"Thank you, Mr. Fu, for saving me again. I will go back by myself."
Fu Beicheng glanced at her lower half: "How are you going back?"
Shengxia's cheeks turned red. She really couldn't go back wearing safety pants. She didn't know what the scenery would be like along the way.
"Don't worry, I won't retaliate against you for what you said to me that day. I'm just helping my sister take care of you."
Shengxia glanced at him and said nothing.
Along the way, neither of them spoke.
Shengxia felt that she should speak first.
"I must have misunderstood you during the day. I'm sorry."
Fu Beicheng drove the car while looking at her with a faint smile.
"Oh? What's the misunderstanding?"
"If Mr. Fu didn't want to cooperate with me, he wouldn't have cooperated with me even if Gu Huaizhou didn't say it. I was just too angry when I heard Gu Huaizhou say that, and I didn't think it through. I'm sorry."
Fu Beicheng laughed out loud: "Mr. Sheng, you shouldn't let love get in your head when doing business."
It doesn’t sound nice, but it’s true.
"Mr. Fu is right. You really shouldn't be obsessed with love when doing business. I will think about this carefully in the future."
Fu Beicheng glanced at her, seeming a little surprised.
Shengxia also noticed that he wanted to say something but hesitated, but since he didn't say it, she didn't ask.
They were almost at her home, and Shengxia turned her head.
"Boss Fu, let me treat you to a meal. I just want to thank you for saving me twice. We won't talk about work."
