Xuxu seduces him

Chapter 22: Fellow People
The arrogant temper refers to what she said in the casino a few months ago, so arrogant that she dared not recall it; being good at disguising means that after having an arrogant temper, she pretended to be quiet in front of Gu Zhengchen, trying to confuse him.

To sum up, these two words are the bottom line and no more can be added.

……

Before getting off the car, Liang Jingwan walked past the front of the car and carefully observed that the license plate in front of her was different from the consecutive license plates she had seen before. She pondered the relationship between the last four digits in her mind.

He took out his cell phone, turned the screen sideways to avoid Gu Zhengchen seeing it, opened the browser, and slowly loaded the information. Ten seconds later, he got the answer.

The last four digits of the license plate are the stock code of Zhongrong Pharmaceutical listed in Hong Kong. Zhongrong Pharmaceutical is one of the core strategic business units of Zhongrong Group Co., Ltd. and is also the first wholly-owned subsidiary to be successfully listed after Gu Zhengchen took over Zhongrong Group. It is of profound significance.

For a moment, Liang Jingwan was extremely disgusted with her husband Liang’s license plate number, wedding anniversary, Ms. Su’s birthday, etc. In two words, tacky!

Gu Zhengchen looked at the ever-changing expression of the person beside him. The expression was lively and childish, with a little bit of the cuteness unique to little girls. He couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, and a feeling of pleasure swept over his body.

Liang Jingwan had no idea that her expression had been seen by everyone else, and she was very curious whether the boss had signed a lucrative contract to be so happy.

Liang Jingwan looked through the menu. There were many things she wanted to eat, but it was getting late. If she ate everything, she would probably suffer from indigestion. So she selectively picked the dishes she wanted most and closed the table. But when the dishes were served, she realized that the whole table was filled with her favorite foods.

The meal was a great success for both the host and the guests, but Liang Jingwan noticed that Gu Zhengchen didn't eat much and couldn't help thinking that the food was not to his taste, so she gave up the idea of ​​packing a dessert.

When they went out, before Liang Jingwan could reach out to push the heavy glass door, Gu Zhengchen had already helped her move away, and she smiled and thanked him.

After getting in the car, Liang Jingwan took out her cell phone from her bag. Unlike Gu Zhengchen's non-stop phone messages during the meal, the screen of her cell phone was often black, and no one was looking for her. She finally found an APP on the desktop and saw a small red dot in the upper right corner. After clicking on it, she still saw a phone bill reminder.

She pursed her lips, and then realized that Gu Zhengchen had not gotten into the car yet. She lowered the window and stuck her head out to look for him. She happened to see Gu Zhengchen walking towards her with a take-away box in his hand. The Jiangnan Bank logo was printed on the outer packaging.

The incandescent light in the underground garage was too bright, so Gu Zhengchen's facial features were not clear. A halo surrounded him, and it seemed as if he was coming with the light.

It was not until Gu Zhengchen opened the car door that Liang Jingwan calmed down and realized that she had to put her head back into the car. As they looked at each other, Gu Zhengchen reached out and handed over the box in his hand.

The dessert smelled familiar and was exactly what Liang Jingwan wanted to take away. Joy flashed in her eyes, but she suppressed her smile and could only pretend to thank him in a serious and reserved manner, "Thank you, Director Gu."

"I saw you finished all the dumplings at the table. I guess they suit your taste." Gu Zhengchen observed carefully. The only dish on the table that had been finished was the rice dumplings with glutinous rice wine.

Liang Jingwan didn't say anything else, because she felt... something seemed wrong, but she couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

The Maybach stopped at the bottom of Building 11 in Bodhi Bay.

Liang Jingwan bowed to thank him and said "good night."

She originally thought that Gu Zhengchen would leave soon, but after Gu Zhengchen nodded, he put his left hand on the lowered car window, with a cigarette between his index finger and middle finger. Judging from his posture, he seemed like he would not leave until he finished the cigarette.

Liang Jingwan could only walk into the building first, blocking Gu Zhengchen's sight.

Liang Jingwan casually threw off her flat shoes, put on her slippers, stretched out her hand to pull the curtains, and looked downstairs. The Maybach was still there. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that Gu Zhengchen was looking at her from more than ten floors away. Her heart tightened, and Liang Jingwan closed the curtains neatly, covered her face with her hands, rubbed them back and forth a few times, and finally sighed.

……

The next day.

Liang Jingwan went downstairs sleepily. After taking a few steps, she opened her eyes wide and looked at the person in front of her in disbelief, "How do you know I live here?"

Li Zhaoning raised his head. "Didn't I ask you about your home address when I was taking your statement yesterday?"

Liang Jingwan suddenly realized, but she asked curiously, "Then what are you doing here?"

"Didn't you miss dinner last night? So I thought of treating you to breakfast." Li Zhaoning walked around the front of the car and helped Liang Jingwan open the door.

Liang Jingwan clicked her tongue twice, "Is it rare that you can get up?"

"You too." Li Zhaoning replied. The two smiled at each other and recalled their student days at the University of Chicago.

Liang Jingwan and Li Zhaoning met in London two years ago. They studied the same major - psychology. Li Zhaoning was graduating that year and Liang Jingwan had just arrived at the University of Chicago. The two met for the first time in a famous professor's class. She was attending the class for free, and the entire classroom was full, with only one seat vacant next to Li Zhaoning. She asked Li Zhaoning to move aside, but Li Zhaoning questioned her and said she was not a student in this class. The quarrel was too loud, and Liang Jingwan did not want to attract other people's attention, so she had to walk out of the classroom.

Even though she later learned that Li Zhaoning was reserving a spot for another Chinese student who was studying and working, Liang Jingwan never had the slightest fondness for him.

The second time was at a gathering of international students. Li Zhaoning had a great time chatting with several Japanese female classmates, but she didn't have a good face towards the Japanese. Later, she heard from several Chinese female classmates that Li Zhaoning never refused anyone who came to him, so Liang Jingwan silently labeled him a playboy in her heart.

The gradual familiarity that followed was due to... being late.

It was still a class taught by the same professor. Liang Jingwan overslept and tried to sneak in through the back door with a hunched back. She went from the front to the back and Li Zhaoning went from the back to the front. The two of them happened to meet at the back door, and the thought that flashed through their eyes was... it turned out that they were fellow travelers.

Later, her mind gradually changed because the reason Li Zhaoning was late that day was because he was helping a Chinese student who was working and studying to work the night shift. She also learned from that classmate that Li Zhaoning would often help him, both in his studies and in life.

However, less than a year later, Li Zhaoning returned to China first, and she went from being late with everyone to being the only one late.

Liang Jingwan looked at the scenery outside the window. The wind blew up the fallen leaves, which swirled in the air, danced in the air, and then fell quietly. The left side was yellow, and the right side was green. Half was autumn and half was summer. She opened the calendar and looked at the date, only to realize that time had passed in a flash.

The two found a breakfast shop near the law firm. It was already late and people who bought breakfast took it away and left in a hurry.

The table and stools were not very clean. There was still dirt on them after wiping them with a tissue. Liang Jingwan didn't care, but Li Zhaoning still took off his coat and handed it to Liang Jingwan. Liang Jingwan reached out to take it, but did not put it under her body. She just lifted her handbag and placed it on top.

Liang Jingwan bought a portion of wontons, scooped it up lightly, and steam filled the air.

After finishing breakfast, Liang Jingwan took out her cell phone from her bag. The time was just right, neither too early nor too late. She waved to Li Zhaoning and stepped into the building.

I walked into the coffee shop on the first floor and was about to speak when I saw someone familiar.
