Gu Zichen's eyebrows rose, and his expression as he looked at Wen Mian was particularly keen.
While they locked gazes, Gu Zichen offered a second option.
"I can withdraw the investment, but if you insist on a replacement, you'll have to pay a hefty breach-of-contract fee. As soon as the penalty is paid, I'll leave for sure," he said.
As his words fell, Wen Mian also prepared herself to give up.
Paying a breach-of-contract fee to avoid Gu Zichen seemed somewhat unwarranted.
But observing Gu Zichen's serious demeanor, Wen Mian was somewhat astonished.
"This is the only way; weigh it yourselves," he stated.
During their conversation, a familiar figure happened to pass by the entrance.
There stood Du Weizhe not far away, watching Wen Mian and Gu Zichen having lunch together and inevitably feeling a twinge of doubt.
Wen Mian had rejected his affections not long ago.
And now, to his dismay, she seemed to get along well with Gu Zichen. Wasn't she disregarding him entirely?
