Chapter 234: Mr. Gu, Let’s Talk
In the CEO office of Gu Group, Gu Zihang received Sheng An’ning’s call at noon.
He took out his phone and saw the name displayed on the screen. There was a strange look in his sharp eyes.
It was her!
Although they had met only once, Gu Zihang had a deep impression of the girl who looked like Su Wan.
In front of him, the girl called Sheng An’ning didn’t seem to hide her intentions but instead said they were not enemies and could be good allies.
They were indeed allies. He wanted to make up with Su Wan, while Sheng An’ning loved Jiang Xuecheng deeply.
Weren’t they each taking what they needed?
A sarcastic smile appeared on Gu Zihang’s face. Unconsciously, he held the mobile phone tighter. After a burst of confusion, he finally answered the call.
Gu Zihang looked down and his smile became colder. “It’s been a few days since we last met. I thought you’ve forgotten me.”
“How could I forget such a handsome and talented man like you, Mr. Gu? I’ve promised to give you a treat. Are you free this afternoon?”
The female voice on the other end of the phone was gentle and as pleasant as the sound of nature.
Gu Zihang’s eyes deepened. He took in a breath softly. It was such a coincidence that he had no appointments this afternoon...
Had Sheng An’ning asked someone about his schedule?
Sheng An’ning’s abilities should not be underestimated in view of how she knew his schedule in advance...
In fact, Gu Zihang’s appointments had always been tight. Since the day he divorced Su Yurou, many families with daughters of the right age had been treating him to lunch.
Of course, these people’s intentions were self-evident.
Although Su Yurou had discredited Gu Zihang, she couldn’t change the fact that Gu Zihang was handsome and rich. After she was no longer Mrs. Gu, there were many more women wanting to be the young madam of the Gu family.
Seriousness flashed through his eyes but his voice was very calm.
“With a date with a beauty like you, Ms. Sheng, I’ll take some time out even if it means I’ll have to reschedule my original appointments.”
When Sheng An’ning heard how Gu Zihang put up an act, her face remained stoic. When they met outside the washroom of Weiyang Restaurant the other day, Sheng An’ning could sense Gu Zihang’s dislike for her.
To be more accurate, it was detestation.
Sheng An’ning found it strange that he detested her. Putting aside how similar she looked with Su Wan, she was a pretty girl.
Sheng An’ning had always been confident with her looks. Even if she was a little more straightforward, how could Gu Zihang hate her just because of this?
Curious, Sheng An’ning did a search on Gu Zihang’s background and understood why Gu Zihang didn’t like her. He was exactly like how the saying goes, ‘once bitten, twice shy’.
Huh, she was afraid that when Gu Zihang saw her, he thought of his ex-wife, Su Yurou, who was gentle and pretty on the outside but venomous within.
However, she was different from Su Yurou, who was fickled-minded. They were absolutely different in nature!
Since she was young, Sheng An’ning’s heart could only accommodate Jiang Xuecheng and no one else! To Sheng An’ning, only she could stand side by side with Jiang Xuecheng!
As for Su Wan...
Su Wan had been lucky in the perfume incident but Sheng An’ning believed she could separate Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng before their wedding ceremony in October.
How could she bear to see someone other than her being Jiang Xuecheng’s life partner?
Sheng An’ning snorted coldly but her voice was still as sweet as a warbler. “Let’s meet at Aloes Tea House on North Second Street at 1 pm. I hope you won’t miss our appointment.”
When Gu Zihang heard the venue, his heart shook and he nearly dropped his phone!
There were so many places in S City for discussions, did Sheng An’ning pick this venue on purpose?
Gu Zihang remembered that when Su Wan just returned from abroad, he and Su Yurou had asked her to meet them at Aloes Tea House.
At that time, Su Yurou had used Su Wan’s parents’ cause of death to lure Su Wan. It was impossible for Su Wan not to attend. Of course, it was a bad ending that day.
Now, the woman, who had once called him Zihang gently and admired him, had become a complete stranger.
That day’s incident might have jarred Su Wan and pushed her to marry Jiang Xuecheng all of a sudden.
That day, if he and Su Yurou had been nostalgic, perhaps his situation with Su Wan could be less tense.
The scene of Su Wan leaving after slamming the door was still fresh in his mind...
Gu Zihang clenched his fists. His heart sank and after taking a deep breath, he started speaking.
“Alright. See you at 1 pm at Aloes Tea House.”
After Gu Zihang ended the call, he was exceptionally agitated. He kept the business proposal on his desk and walked towards the window.
What plan did Sheng An’ning have?
If she were thinking of hurting Su Wan...
Gu Zihang pursed his lips. Since his experience with Su Yurou, he suddenly realized that Su Wan had been kind to him in the past. No matter what, he would not want to hurt Su Wan anymore.
Gu Zihang stared at the scenery outside the window and his eyes landed on a gothic-style building.
Gu Zihang lit a cigarette. With smoke lingering in the air, he calmed down gradually. He snuffed out the end of the cigarette and threw the cigarette butt into the bin.
It looked like it was time to meet Sheng An’ning.
A silver Pagani drove out of the underground car park through the center of S City and toward the suburbs to Aloe Tea House on North Second Street...
Gu Zihang held the steering wheel steadily. Seeing that he was about to reach his destination, there was a little impatience in his eyes.
After some thoughts, Gu Zihang lit another cigarette. He took a light puff and parked his car beside the road.
Gu Zihang puffed up the smoke ring before walking through the green garden toward the wooden building in the middle.
A melodious sound of guqin entered his ears. Gu Zihang raised his head and saw the sign reading ‘Aloes Tea House’ before walking in.
A tall and beautiful waitress in cheongsam greeted Gu Zihang. “Hello sir, do you have an appointment?”
Gu Zihang nodded faintly.”My friend is here, she’s in Room Six of the third floor.”
“Okay, would you like me to bring you up?”
Gu Zihang shook his hand, “No, thank you. I’ll go up on my own.”
As Gu Zihang spoke, he walked toward the corner stairs. He walked along the long corridor and saw Room Six at the end of the corridor.
His eyes deepened and finally pushed the door.
As soon as the door was pushed open, Gu Zihang could see a looming figure behind a curtain of light pink beads.
Before Gu Zihang could enter, the curtain was lifted and Sheng An’ning was staring at him smilingly.
“Mr. Gu, you’re very punctual.”
