Chapter 626: Foster Brother (28)
After quickly finishing breakfast, Wen Wan got into Gu Liu's car. The driver didn't say anything when he saw her. Gu Liu fastened his seatbelt, and Wen Wan quickly followed suit. Then she took out her snacks and started eating. The best way to ease awkwardness is to have something in your hand and something to eat. This is Wen Wan's usual method. No matter what, food is always a source of security.
After eating all the way, Gu Liu couldn't help but wonder, does this thing have two stomachs?
They ate quite a lot for breakfast, yet they still managed to stuff so much food in their mouths. They really have a huge appetite.
Won't it be too much?
Wen Wan said that snacks don't count as meals, so she can keep eating all day long. Wen Wan would occasionally glance at the male lead next to her and the more she looked at him, the more she thought his face was amazing. It was the kind of face she could never have imagined when she was writing novels. If she could spend her whole life with this face, she felt that... it wasn't impossible. She would even feel that it was a blessing.
Beautiful women are treasures in a world obsessed with appearances.
When they arrived at the company, Wen Wan followed Gu Liu, which all the employees saw and were quite surprised.
Wasn't it said that the young lady and President Gu had a bad relationship?
The way Mr. Gu and Miss Gu were chatting and laughing didn't seem like it at all. Could it all just be a rumor?
Only a few senior executives knew about Liu Qianqian and Gu Liu's marriage; it was never leaked to outsiders, so the employees were unaware of it and even thought the two were still adversaries.
Wen Wan also met the rumored female lead, Zhao Ke, for the first time.
Her appearance is the kind that's pleasing to the eye, but not particularly outstanding. However, when I saw her, I couldn't control my expression for a moment, and even a flash of disgust crossed my face.
Indeed, it would be strange if the female lead had feelings for her. After all, it was Liu Qianqian who kicked her mother out of the Liu family and made her leave, which made her life difficult afterward. She even suspected that Zhao Ke had ulterior motives when he applied for the job as her assistant.
Gu Liu watched as Wen Wan casually lay down on the sofa and began reading the script.
It has to be said that the young lady really loves acting. She used to be only interested in things for a short time, but she has persisted in acting for quite a long time.
System: [Host, why are you lying down? You should be doing something!]
Wen Wan: "What should I do? They're working, I shouldn't disturb them, should I?"
System: [Then why don't you pour Gu Liu some tea or buy him some coffee? Show some authority as the rightful wife, or the female lead will steal your home.]
Wen Wan: "If he likes the female lead, nothing I do will matter. If he likes me, I don't need to do anything."
system:【……】
What kind of twisted logic is this?
The system just wants to slack off.
Wen Wan looked at the script, then started playing the game again.
Gu Liu looked up at the game sounds and said, "Miss, if you're bored, I'll have Assistant Chen take you for a walk."
Wen Wan: "I'm not bored!"
Gu Liu: "..."
Zhao Ke left quickly, but gave her a complicated look before leaving. Wen Wan pretended not to see it. After all, it was the original owner of this body who was targeting her, so what did it have to do with her? She wouldn't target the female lead in the future anyway.
Moreover, if she remembered correctly, after Liu Qianqian drove Zhao Ke and her daughter away, she gave them a sum of money as compensation. It was with that money that the female lead was able to attend the best university and receive the best education.
Therefore, the original novel's claim that the female lead suffered because Liu Qianqian forced her to, is really a bit far-fetched.
However, Liu Qianqian is definitely not a good person.
Wen Wan's stomach growled. Looking at Gu Liu, who was still engrossed in his work, Wen Wan thought for a moment but decided to interrupt, "Brother, it's noon."
Gu Liu: "Are you hungry? Then wait for me to finish organizing this information, and then we'll go eat."
Wen Wan nodded. "I'm not in a hurry, you go ahead with your work."
Within five minutes, Gu Liu began packing his things, and then the two left the office. "Where should we eat? There are quite a few restaurants near the company."
Wen Wan: "Doesn't the company have a cafeteria? Why go through all that trouble? It's so much easier to just go to the cafeteria."
Gu Liu: "You want to eat in the cafeteria? Didn't you say it was dirty?"
Wen Yan: "..."
She didn't; it was Liu Qianqian herself.
The Liu Group's cafeteria is very large, and the benefits are really good. The employee meals are very cheap, so most employees eat in the cafeteria. Gu Liu sometimes doesn't have time to eat, so he also eats in the cafeteria.
However, it's quite rare to see President Gu and Miss Gu appear together.
What would you like to eat?
Wen Wan took Gu Liu's card and ordered two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and a bowl of rice before going to reserve a seat.
The employees next to her stared at her, and Wen Wan smiled gently, "You guys eat quickly, this food smells delicious."
What are your names?
During the few minutes that Gu Liu was getting his food, Wen Wan struck up a conversation with the employees around her, even learning their names and departments. She then asked Gu Liu to order more stir-fries so she could treat everyone to a meal.
I bought milk tea again.
Gu Liu came over and frowned. "Don't drink milk tea with your meal."
Wen Wan: "I won't drink it. I'll drink it after I finish eating."
Gu Liu: "..."
Wen Wan began to enjoy the food, exclaiming as she ate, "This braised pork is amazing! It's not too fatty or greasy, just right. Brother, you should try a piece."
Gu Liu: "..."
Mr. Gu prefers vegetarian food.
This was something all the employees knew, but they still saw President Gu actually take a piece from the young lady's plate and put it in his mouth.
"How about it?"
Gu Liu: "Not bad."
Then Wen Wan put several pieces into Gu Liu's bowl. Since they were going to do something, they might as well start by sharing. The fact that Wen Wan could share food could only mean that the other person really liked them.
Wen Wan suddenly noticed that the expressions of the employees around her were a little strange. She looked over with a question in her eyes, and then all the employees quickly buried their heads in their food.
Wen Yan: "..."
"Don't tell me the male lead has mysophobia, right?"
System: [Didn't I say? The male lead has severe mysophobia.]
Wen Wan wished she could chop off her own hand. She leaned close to Gu Liu's ear and whispered, "Should I reprint one for you? I forgot you're a germaphobe."
Gu Liu: "I don't have obsessive-compulsive disorder."
"real?"
Gu Liu: "Hurry up and eat."
Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the character's persona wasn't very accurate after all. She then started recommending Gu Liu's delicious dishes while eating. After finishing the meal, Wen Wan felt incredibly full.
"I'm so full! This cafeteria food is really good, just as good as what the cafeteria lady makes."
Gu Liu nodded.
While cleaning up the trash on the table, I watched the young lady start drinking milk tea again. Looking at her slender waist, I really couldn't understand where she stored all those things, or where there was even room for them.
After finishing their meal, Wen Wan and Gu Liu returned to the company. Gu Liu continued working, while Gu Liu continued to slouch.
After lounging around for a while, I got really bored, so I went out for a stroll and went shopping.
She bought a bunch of snacks and then her manager blocked her at the company entrance. Wen Wan quickly explained, "I bought these for other people, definitely not for myself. You have to believe me."
