Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 663 A Bouquet of Red Roses Every Day (3)
Chapter 663: Chapter 663 A Bouquet of Red Roses Every Day (3)
Lu Wanwan had limited interactions with him, which basically consisted of his vehement pursuit and her unequivocal rejections.
However, she could tell that Jiu Li wasn’t a bad person by nature; perhaps because he was the youngest in the family, he had been quite pampered since childhood and didn’t carry many burdens or responsibilities.
As a result, aside from having fun, there wasn’t much for him to do.
It became especially evident after she had arrived at the MG headquarters and met the real person in power, the eldest son of the Jiu family, Jiu Rong. She could clearly feel the difference.
Probably all the burdens of the Jiu family rested on Jiu Rong’s shoulders, since he seemed more reliable!
"There, it’s all good now." Jiu Li walked back with a bright smile on his face, as if bathed in the spring breeze, "Now, even if there is a misunderstanding, it involves only him."
"...Vice-President Jiu, thank you," Lu Wanwan enunciated each word clearly, her teeth clenched.
It’s just that there hadn’t been any help a moment ago, if anything, it had gotten worse.
Jiu Li seemed completely unconcerned, his arms folded and a boarding pass tucked between his fingers, "I came back to see my mom, and I heard from my brother that you’ve been doing well in your job. It just so happens we’re both going to the film festival, it’s nice to have someone watch your back, right?"
"Vice-President Jiu, I’m going there to work, which is different from formally attending the film festival like you are."
With his extremely good fortune with women, Jiu Li was never short of beautiful women around him. Coupled with his family’s entertainment company, MG, he was well-acquainted with the entertainment industry.
Events like the film festival were routine for him.
"But you won’t have much work, I’ve secretly checked," Jiu Li said with a grin, feeling no shame at all in admitting his sly act, "mostly, you’ll have free time. I’m thinking... where should we go for fun..."
"Vice-President Jiu, I’m not here to have fun..."
"I know, I’m not here for that either, but we can still go out for some entertainment and relaxation. You know I usually stay in the United States, I’m not familiar with this place and don’t really have friends here. Although you’ve been transferred to the headquarters, I’m still technically your BOSS, so this is a work necessity. You can’t expect that chubby guy to go out and have fun with me, right?"
His reasoning was sound, leaving her torn between laughter and tears.
"Vice-President Jiu, I seriously and earnestly tell you, my work does not include accompanying for fun!"
"Then may I invite you as a friend?" Jiu Li teased leisurely, "I remember on our fifth meeting you said we were friends. Are you going back on your word?"
Lu Wanwan: "..." That was just because he had advanced the relationship too quickly, so she had reminded him that they were just ordinary friends.
"What do you say? Let me think... why don’t we go to nearby Gale Island, I can book the whole place," Jiu Li was already planning in his mind.
Previously, his older brother had seriously warned him that he could pursue anyone but her.
Jiu Li had no choice but to reluctantly give up, especially since he thought she was Bai Lingyun’s woman and didn’t want to get involved in such matters.
A few days ago, when he had come to Manchester, he overheard a phone call between his brother and Bai Lingyun where his brother told him to focus on his acting career and continue being the golden bachelor. He immediately sensed that his chance had returned.
So he checked behind his brother’s back and today his casual encounter was successful.

Eager to get to Xigang as soon as possible, Mr. Gu was unusually strict with the timing this time.
When boarding the plane, Zhao Chen habitually checked the entertainment news.
To his surprise, he found that Miss Lu had appeared on the same page as Miss Shu.
Only the video mentioned in the article couldn’t be opened in several places, leading to speculation that it might have been taken down through bribery.
But if they hadn’t deleted it, who else could have?
