Back in her office, Gu Fanyan immediately called Lin Guangchen and asked him to go to a bar together that evening.
Lin Guangchen was taken aback. "Have we been meeting up a bit too frequently lately?"
Gu Fanyan then learned that her mother had actually called Lin Guangchen, asking him to go to the resort with her in three days.
"My mom is much more eager to get married than I am," Gu Fanyan said somewhat awkwardly.
“Auntie is afraid that I won’t have time to give a last-minute notice,” Lin Guangchen said gently. “Auntie is very thoughtful.”
Gu Fanyan pursed her lips: "Do you mean you can't come with me tonight?"
"Your call came at a good time. I was supposed to be on duty, but my colleague switched shifts with me."
Oh, that is quite a coincidence!
After hanging up the phone, Gu Fanyan felt a pang of guilt.
Lin Guangchen is such a gentle person, yet she was ruthless in using him.
But when she got to the bar that night, she changed her mind.
It's okay to be a little harsher on someone like Gu Zheng.
He actually invited Lin Zhibai.
Lin Zhibai's legs still can't touch the ground, and he's in a wheelchair. No matter what he does, he needs someone to take care of him.
As soon as Gu Fanyan arrived, Gu Zheng said in front of everyone, "Representative Gu, you are familiar with Young Master Lin. He has come to support us tonight, so he is in your care."
Everyone's eyes swept over Gu Fanyan, their expressions revealing a variety of emotions.
Gu Zheng did it on purpose.
He wanted everyone to think that she was able to take charge of such a large project because of her background.
He, on the other hand, climbed up step by step on his own merits.
Gu Fanyan pretended not to notice anything, and replied frankly with a "okay," then sat down next to Lin Zhibai.
He sneered inwardly, knowing the show was about to begin.
"Have the arrangements for the resort been made?" Lin Zhibai asked.
Gu Fanyan hummed in agreement, then turned to look at Lin Zhibai, "Given your situation, are you capable of going to the resort?"
Lin Zhibai shrugged: "If we can come here, why can't we go to the resort?"
Gu Fanyan was slightly taken aback. Oh, so there was another reason he came here today.
"Gu Zheng is highly valued at Gu's Group and is very popular with his employees?" Lin Zhibai looked ahead and saw Gu Zheng standing in front of the big screen, surrounded by a group of employees singing.
Gu Fanyan suppressed her displeasure: "The Gu family has always produced talented people."
She didn't tell Lin Zhibai the truth.
Lin Zhibai glanced at her, but didn't bring up the rest of the conversation.
"You didn't bring your assistant?" Gu Fanyan asked.
"Can't you take care of me, Sister Fanyan?" he asked back.
"No." Gu Fanyan stood up and walked out.
"Representative Gu!" Gu Zheng's voice suddenly came from the microphone, and the entire private room could hear it, "Where are you going? You'd better take good care of Young Master Lin today!"
Gu Fanyan smiled at him: "I'm going to pick up a friend, I'll be right back."
Gu Zheng was slightly taken aback; there was a hint of danger in her smile.
Gu Fanyan left the bar and was greeted by Lin Guangchen.
Lin Guangchen guessed something: "Are there many of your friends inside?"
Gu Fanyan nodded, "They're all colleagues from the company."
Lin Guangchen was stunned for a moment, and his steps unconsciously stopped.
Gu Fanyan asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
She pretended so well that Lin Guangchen couldn't discern from her expression whether she knew about his relationship with Gu Zheng...
Lin Guangchen stammered, "Your colleagues probably don't even know I exist..."
"Won't we find out when we meet?" Gu Fanyan pursed her lips awkwardly. "Besides, they know I'm here to pick them up. You're not going to change your mind at the last minute, are you?"
Lin Guangchen suddenly smiled, as if he had suddenly realized something, "How could that be? Don't I have even this basic sense of contractual obligation?"
Gu Fanyan and Lin Guangchen walked into the private room together.
"Wow!" The employees immediately cheered in the private room.
Gu Fanyan stared intently at Gu Zheng's face.
Gu Zheng was taken aback for a moment, his face turning ashen, then he forced himself to look away, suppressing his anger.
He had to suppress his anger so hard that the veins on his forehead were bulging.
Gu Fanyan felt a little reluctant, but then she thought that Gu Zheng had started the trouble first, so she didn't need to act like a saint.
"Miss," an employee asked, "who is this? Aren't you going to introduce her to everyone?"
Gu Fanyan smiled and said, "His name is Lin Guangchen, a medical expert, and my boyfriend."
The boisterous cheers and jeers rang out again.
"Young Miss has such good taste," the employees praised one after another. "A good-looking academic genius, everyone wants one!"
Gu Fanyan pulled Lin Guangchen to sit down on the sofa.
Lin Guangchen said something, but it was too noisy in the private room for her to hear clearly. Instinctively, she leaned closer to him and asked, "What did you say?"
Lin Guangchen leaned even closer, his voice right next to her ear: "Young Master Lin is very hostile towards me."
Gu Fanyan turned to look at Lin Zhibai, and sure enough, he was drinking while staring at Lin Guangchen, his gaze sharp enough to pierce a person to death.
"Does he have feelings for you?" Lin Guangchen asked.
“He has a girlfriend,” Gu Fanyan replied.
Moreover, it was acknowledged by Lin's mother.
Gu Fanyan didn't want Lin Zhibai to get involved, so she took out her phone and sent her location to Sheng Xin.
"Don't worry about him, the people who will take care of him will be here soon." She turned her gaze away and looked at Gu Zheng again.
Gu Zheng stopped singing and sat in the corner drinking.
Suddenly, he put down his wine glass, got up, and walked over here.
This means something is about to happen.
Gu Fanyan had been waiting for this moment.
She moved closer to Lin Guangchen and placed a plate of lychees in his hand. "I want to eat these. Can you peel them for me?"
Lin Guangchen was slightly taken aback, but did not refuse.
With his hands accustomed to scalpels, peeling lychees was a piece of cake. In no time, he had peeled a clean, white, and glistening lychee.
“I’ll feed you,” he said.
Gu Fanyan looked at the lychee in his hand.
For couples, it's quite a normal thing to bend down and eat lychees at this moment.
But they weren't actually a couple.
Even when it comes to acting, Gu Fanyan couldn't have acted to this extent.
But Gu Zheng's gaze remained fixed on her. He had disgusted her so many times, why couldn't she disgust him even once?
Gu Fanyan steeled her heart and was about to lower her head...
"Smack!"
"oops!"
A considerable commotion suddenly broke out in the private room.
Everyone turned around and saw that Lin Zhibai had accidentally broken a bottle of foreign liquor on the ground.
Shards and liquor splashed onto several people nearby.
Lin Zhibai looked at everyone apologetically: "I'm sorry, my leg is injured."
"It's alright, it's alright." Everyone was very understanding.
After all, apart from Gu Fanyan, no one present dared to criticize Lin Zhibai.
"Young Master Lin, your foot has been cut by the shards!" Suddenly, an employee noticed something was wrong.
The employees all gathered around Lin Zhibai.
“It really got cut, and there’s more than one wound.”
"Some of the wounds are quite deep!"
In short, while the situation is not serious, it is definitely not simple either.
“Representative Gu,” Gu Zheng said slowly, “isn’t your boyfriend a doctor?”
