When Gu Ruochu heard Huo Nanchen's words, she slowly turned her head.
At that moment, she froze on the spot and pursed her lips.
She didn't expect Huo Nanchen to appear unannounced at the filming location.
His black car was parked across the street. Li Tezhu was standing outside the car as if he was waiting for someone. Suddenly, Huo Nanchen rolled down the window and caught Gu Ruochu's gaze.
However, he did not get out of the car.
It was as if he was just waiting for his prey to fall into his net.
Gu Ruochu hung up the phone and spoke to the person next to her before walking towards the car.
"If you're not here for a divorce, please tell me what you want quickly because I still have work to do." Gu Ruochu raised her hand and gestured at her watch.
Huo Nanchen's hand suddenly leaned against the car window, and his body leaned towards her.
Gu Ruochu turned her face away from his gaze. Huo Nanchen looked at her sentimentally. He could not believe that she was treating him so coldly.
"Don't get so close when you're talking."
"Why, am I affecting you?"
Gu Ruochu would not admit it, and she continued avoiding his gaze.
Huo Nanchen had no intention of backing away. Suddenly, he remembered how happy Gu Ruochu had seemed as she chatted with Gu Zexi at the restaurant.
The lingering anger in his chest almost exploded.
"What else do you want?" Gu Ruochu closed her eyes. She could not bear to look him in the eye. "I don't have much time."
Huo Nanchen's lips curled into a scowl. "You say that you've been busy, yet you still had time to have lunch with that man!"
Gu Ruochu was startled.
She recalled that she had gone out for lunch with Gu Zexi.
How had Huo Nanchen known?
"You're not going to let anyone stare at me, are you?" Gu Ruochu finally looked at him. "Are you following me?''
When Huo Nanchen saw that she was unable to contain her anger, he scoffed, "If I don't keep tabs on you, are you sure that you won't cause a huge ruckus?"
He was afraid that she would act rashly in an attempt to force him into agreeing to a divorce.
"Young Madam, the boss arrived at noon. He's been waiting for you here for a long time." Li Tezhu could not help but interject.
Gu Ruochu fell silent. She did not know why, but her feelings were hurt.
Why was Huo Nanchen behaving so brashly?
Gu Ruochu felt that she could not trust him anymore.
She could not believe that he was now spying on her.
Gu Ruochu tried her best to suppress the sourness in her heart as she stared into the distance.
"We should have done this over the phone. If I knew that you were following me, I wouldn't have come out."
Abruptly, Huo Nanchen got out of the car and hugged her tightly. His strong aura shrouded over Gu Ruochu's head as he addressed her in a cold voice.
"Ruochu, can't you see that I'm already restraining my limited rationality?" He hugged her even tighter, and his voice became extremely hoarse. "I've given you time to think about the divorce. During this time, you don't have to be too close to me, but you can't be far away from me either. More importantly, don't go out with other men."
"It was just a meal. I don't think there was anything wrong with that."
"You're a married woman, yet you're so intimate with other men. There are so many paparazzi here. Aren't you afraid of being targeted by these news-hungry reporters?"
