Chapter 52 You are so mean!
"Mr. Fu, no one told you," she said, her eyelashes trembling as she looked up, "If you keep being so sharp-tongued, will no woman like you?"
He suddenly leaned over, and the woody fruity scent mixed with his body temperature pressed down.
"Why is the owner of this dress..."
The mirrored elevator wall reflected her suddenly constricted pupils.
"Aren't you disgusted by me now?"
As he stood up, he pressed the number keys.
"Manager Gu," he suddenly said as the metal door opened, "Do you think..." He glanced back at her white knuckles, "that I've been a monk for the past five years?"
The elevator door slowly closed, and the last frame was him adjusting his cuffs.
so…
Does he also whisper sweet words in other people's ears in that hoarse voice?
Did he treat her with special care?
Gu Xiangsi didn't dare to think further. Her heart felt like it was being pricked by a needle, causing a sharp pain.
The elevator suddenly fell silent, and then there was a "dong" sound, and the elevator door opened.
"Huh? Si Nian? Why are you here?"
Zhou Wanrong raised her eyes and saw the person inside. Her gaze then fell on Gu Xiangsi's clothes and her eyes turned.
People have already walked in.
When Li Xiaoyao saw this, his heart started beating fast. Oh no, will this ruin the young master's plans?
He quickly followed her into the elevator, carrying his shopping bags.
Gu Xiangsi moved further into the corner.
Zhou Wanrong's eyes were burning as she stared at the corner, and Gu Xiangsi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at.
Fu Sinian moved to the side, just blocking Zhou Wanrong's view.
"Mom, have you finished shopping?"
Zhou Wanrong withdrew her gaze. This dress... was obviously Si Nian's.
He is so obsessed with mysophobia, how could he be willing to give his windbreaker to a girl?
She just caught a glimpse of the scratches on the girl's face and asked tentatively, "Si Nian, your friend?"
"yes."
"no."
The two spoke at the same time, their voices colliding.
Zhou Wanrong looked surprised.
Fu Sinian coughed and was about to speak, but Gu Xiangsi had already heard from their conversation that this was his mother. Feeling that she should explain, she spoke first.
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Mr. Fu's assistant. I had a disagreement with someone today. Thanks to Mr. Fu for helping me."
"Oh, the assistant."
Zhou Wanrong nodded thoughtfully. "So assistants are all so good-looking. What's your name?"
She was about to ask more, but Fu Sinian interrupted her, "Mom, where's my brother? Have you found the girl he was hugging?"
This really diverted Zhou Wanrong's attention, and she immediately said, "Don't mention it. Ask your brother, he's such a blockhead that he'll insist he's not familiar with that girl.
But the two of them are so affectionate in the photo, I must ask him to bring him over to me to see."
Once the subject was changed, Zhou Wanrong's mind fell on Fu Jia's matter. She started talking about Fu Jia and asked about the relevant situation.
Gu Xiangsi listened and was surprised. Could that girl be Qin Shiwei?
"Ding." The elevator door opened.
Just as Gu Xiangsi was about to step out, Zhou Wanrong seemed to suddenly remember something, reached out and pressed the close button, then pressed the button for the third floor.
"I think it's almost time, and I'm hungry. Why don't we go to the Italian restaurant on the third floor?"
As she spoke, she looked at Fu Sinian.
"good."
Zhou Wanrong then turned to look at Gu Xiangsi in the corner and asked with a smile, "Miss, what should I call you?"
"My last name is Gu, so you can just call me Xiangsi."
"Xiangsi, that's a nice name."
Zhou Wanrong nodded and invited enthusiastically, "Xiangsi, do you mind having lunch with us?"
Gu Xiang was about to refuse, but before he could say anything, Zhou Wanrong sighed, "You youngsters, just sit with me. Qi Nian and his two brothers are busy with their own things all day long. I, an old woman, feel so pitiful. I have no one to keep me company."
The refusal was on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed it back in the end.
PAPER MOON is an Italian restaurant in Hong Kong, specializing in fine Italian cuisine. Its biggest highlight is its outdoor seating with a 270-degree view of Victoria Harbour.
Several people sat down at the outdoor terrace, and Zhou Wanrong first ordered a few signature dishes and desserts.
She was just about to ask Gu Xiangsi what he wanted to eat when Fu Sinian took the menu and said, "I'll do it."
He ordered a few dishes, including appetizers, staple foods, and main courses. When he handed them to the waiter, he pointed out the handmade buffalo mozzarella with vintage tomatoes and added, "This one has a bit more sweet and sour taste."
The waiter nodded in agreement.
Zhou Wanrong looked at Fu Sinian in surprise, then glanced towards Gu Xiangsi.
Gu Xiangsi had tidied her hair when she got out of the elevator just now, but the beige clothes underneath were wrinkled and dirty, and she was still wrapped in Fu Sinian's coat.
The waiter brought the juice, Li Xiaoyao quickly took it and filled everyone's cups.
Zhou Wanrong took a sip and her eyes fell on Gu Xiangsi's face. The more she looked at him, the more she liked him.
This girl has a cool and pure temperament, especially her almond-shaped eyes, which are so clear that people can't take their eyes off them.
She couldn't help but ask, "Xiangsi, how old are you? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Fu Sinian, who had just taken a sip of juice, darkened his eyes when he heard this, and suddenly coughed a few times, as if he was choked.
Gu Xiangsi glanced at him.
"Auntie, I'm 24 this year. I was in a relationship, but we broke up."
When Fu Shinian heard the word "break", his hand holding the cup tightened unconsciously.
"Hey, why did such a good girl break up?"
Zhou Wanrong said regretfully, "That guy must be blind. Don't be sad. I'll find someone better later."
Gu Xiangsi almost choked on the juice she had just drunk.
She subconsciously looked at Fu Sinian, who was looking at her leisurely.
She felt extremely guilty.
Zhou Wanrong thought of something, "Xiangsi is so beautiful, it would be great if she were my daughter. What's the point of having two sons? Daughters are more caring, like a little cotton-padded jacket."
Gu Xiangsi was so stunned by the words that she couldn't respond and her heart was pounding.
How dare she say that the person she was dating was your son? And she was the one who broke up first?
She had no choice but to respond, "Auntie, your son is very handsome, and most importantly, I am also beautiful."
"My two boys look like me." Zhou Wanrong smiled happily when she was praised for her good looks.
Fu Sinian scoffed at the side, his tone a little disapproving: "You're the only one who knows how to flatter."
Zhou Wanrong raised her hand and gently tapped the back of Fu Sinian's hand with her chopsticks, saying angrily, "You're the only one with a sharp tongue!"
She looked at Gu Xiangsi with a sincere expression, "How about, Xiangsi, you be my goddaughter."
"no."
"Can't."
The two of them spoke in unison again.
Fu Sinian's face had turned cold. "Mom, you've only known her for a few minutes, and you're just randomly claiming her as your goddaughter."
Li Xiaoyao didn't dare to breathe a word. If the lady recognized Miss Gu as her daughter, she and the young master would be brother and sister.
Oh my god…
Gu Xiangsi also embarrassedly explained, "Madam, this is not appropriate."
Gu Xiangsi felt complicated when she saw the interaction between Fu Sinian and her mother.
She suddenly missed her mother very much.
My nose feels a little sour for some reason.
The waiter brought the main courses, and Fu Sinian naturally placed the bowl of handmade buffalo cheese with extra sour and spicy flavor and vintage tomatoes in front of Gu Xiangsi.
Zhou Wanrong raised her eyebrows and said nothing, but when she looked at Gu Xiangsi, the smile in her eyes became even more intense.
"Si Nian, you are not allowed to bully Xiang Si in the company."
She said, "When I look at Xiangsi, I feel that we are destined to be together."
"You can eat yours first," Fu Sinian said calmly. "Every day when you go out, you say you're destined to meet every girl you see. If you really want to adopt a goddaughter, I'm afraid the line of people will stretch from Victoria Harbour to the villa area."
"Look at what you said." Zhou Wanrong was unhappy, "I don't like everyone I meet."
