Gu Xiaoer frowned and couldn't help but emphasize, "I only agreed to attend the banquet, but I never promised it would work out. Better keep in mind that if it doesn't, don't blame me."
"Okay, okay, I won't blame you. Are you hungry? Eat something first, it'll be even harder to get food once we get busy." Gu Xiaoer noticed that tonight, Gu Zhengjin was especially easy-going, and Lin Kexin had been quietly sitting on the sofa playing with her phone, not bothering her much. Could it be because she had some utility to them that they were being so polite?
But without thinking too much about it, Gu Xiaoer chose to eat. If things turned sour later, at least she would have the energy to run away.
As night fell, it descended completely.
Gu Zhengjin and Lin Kexin had long since left.
Gu Xiaoer was left alone in the private room, her eyelids heavy, struggling to stay awake.
Was the air conditioning in this private room broken? It was so hot.
She staggered to her feet, looking for a bottle of ice water. Pushing open the door of the private room suite, she was surprised to find a luxurious KING-SIZE bed inside.
So tired...
Gu Xiaoer murmured one last time and flopped onto the bed without even taking off her shoes...
At the door of room 1208.
President Wei was instructing his silly son over and over again.
Wei Hao, with an imposing figure, was biting his finger, saliva dripping continuously, nodding with half-understanding and a touch of excitement.
President Wei patted his son's head with satisfaction and urged him to hurry in.
Although unconventional methods were used on the girl inside, if it was for his son, he was willing to do anything. Despite his successful career, no decent family's daughter wanted to marry into his home.
This time, he finally found someone suitable, and he couldn't let her slip by.
Gu Xiaoer, don't blame others; blame your unfortunate fate for having such a father!
When Han Luoli arrived at the Haoting Hotel, Wei Feng was there to meet him at the entrance. They took the VVIP elevator directly up to the private rooms on the upper floors.
Wei Feng had already confirmed that Gu Xiaoer was on the 12th floor in one of the private rooms, but had not managed to determine which one by the time Han Luoli arrived.
"Wei Feng, let's search separately."
"Yes, Boss!"
The formidable man strode through the hotel corridor.
Their sweeping search frightened the wait staff and guests.
After searching room by room, Han Luoli had lost his patience.
Until the eighth room, 1208.
The man kicked open the door with one foot.
The sturdy and solid luxury sensor door, under the force of Han Luoli's kick, shattered and broke open.
There was no one in the living room; Han Luoli quickly moved into the suite.
Under the faint light, he saw the room's situation in a glance and his brain went blank for a moment.
Wei Feng, who had followed, also looked inside, instantly terrified.
The girl shivering under the blanket was Miss Gu!
Wei Feng instinctively looked at his boss's imposing silhouette, cool and long with a touch of weariness. He seemed to be looking at the bed too, but remained composed and still, only emitting a formidable aura that silently froze the air around him, making it increasingly suffocating.
...It's over!
Could the boss be misunderstanding Miss Gu? He detests unchaste women the most in his life!
Wei Feng knew the importance of that girl to his boss, so he would report any of her movements to Han Luoli. Countless times he had left high-level meetings, even billion-dollar deals, just for a word from Miss Gu.
As the boss's assistant, Wei Feng was both happy and worried; he only hoped that the two of them could get along well and avoid repeating the incident from four years ago!
He had thought that Miss Gu was just simply attending the banquet, but he hadn't anticipated his boss seeing this scene!
