MTL - All Over the World To Save My Wife-Chapter 104 Upstart President and Down and Out (10)
====================================
After listening to the rumor in the tea room, Gu Zhong was exuding low air pressure all afternoon, which made the employees under his hands even more trembling.
The original source of these words could not be inquired from the mouths of the two tongue-tied employees. Even if the whole company was cross-examined one by one, no one would tell the truth very honestly.
The purpose of looking at her is to hinder her career and sow discord.
In terms of interests, Ling Yan holds a huge group, but the home court is not on Hong Kong Island.
Such a huge investment is extremely unwise for a successful businessman, because he may not be able to get the desired return, unless Ling Yan really does not want to be a country but only a beauty.
From a rational analysis and speculation, Gu Zhong does not believe that Ling Yan would be such a person, nor does she believe that she has been planning for a long time for a woman.
However, judging from a series of recent behaviors of Ling Yan—Yao Zhong was the only company she got her hands on, but she left it to Gu Zhong at will, without paying attention, and even more concerned about Gu Zhong. A huge sum of 100 million was put on the back.
No matter how you look at it, he really has the qualifications to play the princes for the sake of a smile.
—It’s just a baseless rumor after all.
After a long struggle between reason and emotion, Gu Zhong said to himself.
Although she didn't get along with Ling Yan for a long time, Gu Zhong always had an unexplained trust in her.
—Miss Gu, it’s time to get off work.
The pager vibrated twice, and a text message jumped out. Ling Yan was the only one who called Miss Gu so familiarly.
After putting aside today's doubts and worries for a while, he leaned on the wide leather swivel chair with care and moved out of the space between the desks.
When I turned my head, it happened to be the clear glass that was polished and the white blinds were pulled high, allowing the outside light to shine in without reservation.
Unconsciously, the bright light of the sun has become dim, leaving only a blurred halo, barely dotting the sky full of red clouds.
A crescent moon can't wait to gradually climb up and wants to replace it.
In normal hours, it is indeed time to get off work.
Gu Zhong stood up, walked to the window and looked down, and saw a familiar white car with a familiar figure leaning against the car.
The blinds were closed with a swipe, and Gu Zhong picked up his bag and walked out of the office.
"Director Gu—"
The employees who came and went greeted her with a little surprise, as if she was a little surprised that she left the company so early.
After all, during this period of time, plagued by rumors, it is obvious to all to see how much he loves work and overtime.
"Miss Gu, did you get off work so early today?"
In the lobby, I happened to meet Li Lin who came out of the VIP elevator, and he asked everyone the same doubts.
"Mr. Li, I have an appointment with a friend, so let's go ahead."
Gu Zhong paused and responded politely and distantly.
"Oh? The beautiful woman has an appointment? Unfortunately, I was thinking of inviting Miss Gu to a light meal."
Li Lin squinted his eyes, looking like a sincere regret.
"That's a pity. Next time I have time, I'll invite President Li to dinner."
He also had a smile on his face, and Gu Zhong also spoke politely.
The two walked out of the revolving glass door and said goodbye to each other with a false feeling. Before leaving, Li Lin glanced in the direction where Gu Zhong was walking, with a clear expression.
"Miss Ling, why are you here today?"
"Miss Gu, don't you usually go to dinner after get off work so late?"
The moment they met, the two ladies asked questions at the same time, which caused Yu Fang to be stunned, and then laughed heartily.
"Let me answer your question first, Miss Gu.
I went to the SAR government today to do business. I thought I had never cared about your work situation for so long. "
Ling Yan took the lead in explaining that because the two of them were indeed busy with their careers, except to meet at Ling Yan's villa at night to say good night, they hadn't gotten along well for a long time.
"Also, I don't have as much time to talk about my relationship with Miss Ling as my work partner."
Having never refuted her words, Gu Zhong followed Ling Yan and said, pretending to be wronged, but it made Ling Yan feel more guilty, as if he really did something heinous, Apologize again and again.
"I really didn't have dinner, I wonder what compensation Miss Ling has?"
Gu Zhong always finds a way to turn against customers in front of Ling Yan, and boldly asks to be his girlfriend. Every time he inadvertently makes Ling Yan feel at a loss.
"Everything follows Miss Gu's arrangement."
Making a gentleman's bow, Ling Yan opened the door for Gu Zhong and said softly.
"Ms. Ling should have a good look at the city's real appearance, right?"
Tilt his head, Gu Zhong suddenly asked.
—
To replace all the suits full of capable professional atmosphere with loose sweaters and slacks, and sit beside the table table that is full of pyrotechnics and can't clean the oil stains, Ling Yan can't react.
It was nothing like the first official date she envisioned.
The expensive Mr. Ling traveled all the way to Hong Kong Island, just to eat a bowl of beef brisket noodles that is not clean or hygienic.
"This noodle is very good, Miss Ling, try it?"
Gu Zhong smiled and handed the wooden chopsticks to Ling Yan, looking at her expectantly.
But it's full-bodied and fragrant.
Speaking of which, Ling Yan has never had such an experience, whether in the previous life or in the past few lives.
Not in high-end restaurants, or royal restaurants that were sealed by the royal pen, the food was not a Manchu and Han banquet and jade plate delicacies.
Just sitting at the small table on the side of the road, looking at each other with Gu Zhong, ignoring the dust raised by the passing cars, the dirt on the ground, and the floating soot.
It seems that the aloof gods really fell into the mortal world, and actually experienced the taste of this mortal world.
I took the chopsticks with some disgust, and under Gu Zhong's gaze, Ling Yan reluctantly picked up a few soft noodles and sent them into his mouth.
The rich aroma instantly swayed the whole mouth, and the extremely fresh taste filled the taste buds, making people instantly appetizing.
This was reluctantly smoking, and she began to eat this roadside stall that she despised at twice the speed of the usual meal.
“Delicious?”
Seeing her demeanor, Gu Zhong laughed and asked.
It was too late to respond, Ling Yan took the time to give a thumbs up with her left hand in affirmation, Gu Zhong smiled, and moved his chopsticks slowly this time.
"I didn't expect that Miss Gu could find such a delicious shop that squatted in the market."
After swept away the bowl of noodles, Mr. Ling, who regained his elegant posture, took out the paper towel that he brought with him and carefully wiped off the butter stained on his lips before speaking.
"Most people would be surprised."
With a chuckle, Gu Zhong raised his eyes to look at the surrounding vendors, his eyes full of nostalgia.
"After all, the Gu family won't let you come to places like this."
Ling Yan is well aware of the habits of these wealthy families, even the dishes cooked by Michelin chefs at home have to worry about food safety, not to mention the roadside stalls that they think are very unclean .
"It's true, but there are always accidents in life. I once came here to eat beef brisket noodles once when I was a child, and I remembered it."
Gu Zhong understated that past incident, thinking it is irrelevant.
"After I came back, no one stopped me, so I occasionally ran out to eat such a meal. Fortunately, the boss has not changed it for so many years, and it is still the original taste. Otherwise, I would not know Where can I find the taste of this world-"
"Miss Gu doesn't look like a wealthy and charming lady. Compared with the ones I've seen recently, there is a lot more firework - or should I say humane."
Different from those high-ranking celebrities who claim to be superior, Gu Zhong can truly integrate into the ordinary without appearing abrupt, as if no situation can affect her mood and self Generally, you can deal with it calmly.
Gu Zhong in each life has a different style, her own cuteness, and the shadow of her original body everywhere.
Although Ling Yan knew that this was not her original concern, it did not prevent her from truly appreciating these qualities.
"Does Miss Ling feel that it does not meet her expectations?"
Suddenly stopped the hand that wiped the corner of her mouth, looked straight at her, and asked a very fatal question in a serious relationship.
How many people fall in love at first sight are all defeated by the daily truth.
However, the relationship between the two is not that simple, and it is fortunate that Ling Yan did not have any pre-set expectations for Gu Zhong, so he could give a negative answer with a clear conscience.
"Miss Gu attracted me for no reason at first, and I didn't set any framework. It's just that the more you get along, the more attractive you will be."
"Speaking of which, I wonder if Miss Ling has been concerned about some trends in the company recently?"
The conversation changed, and Gu Zhong jumped his thinking to another topic.
"Huh? Rumor?"
Thinking about it for a moment, Ling Yan thought of the rumors that had been widely circulated and even reached her ears recently.
"Yeah—Miss Ling, your girlfriend is deeply involved in peach scandals, are you indifferent?"
Looking at Ling Yan pretending to be resentful, Gu Zhong said with a very hurt look.
"Sorry, Miss Gu, it was my negligence, but Mr. Li's matter is really tricky—I recently had two friends from the same industry come from the inland, maybe we can talk about cooperation? "
Because of letting Gu Zhong get caught up in the scandal, Ling Yan felt very uncomfortable. However, the prejudice of people's hearts, the more they are suppressed, the more they will rebound, and they can only speak with strength.
"Actually, Miss Ling, there is another emerging rumor—"
Randomly fiddling with the chopsticks in his hand, Gu Zhong casually mentioned.
