After a while, Gu Chu went to the small lounge to take a shower.
She smelled the delicious aroma of food as soon as she came out.
She touched her stomach and realized that she was hungry.
Feng Jia opened the lunchbox and said to her, "I bought this from your favorite restaurant."
"Nice." Gu Chu walked up quickly and took a chair to sit down.
As he ate, he looked at her inquisitively. "Are you looking for me for something?"
Yes, he was extremely sharp.
She had put on perfume and slept with him for no reason. She did not look like she had just left the house in anger this morning.
She rolled her eyes. "I just figured it out. I think it's better for the two of us to talk things out."
"You only figured it out now?" Feng Jia raised an eyebrow. "In the past half a month, no matter how many times I called you, you didn't pick up."
Gu Chu pouted. "You didn't come to me."
"I'm overseas."
"Oh, your fiancée was quarelling with you, and you still have the mood to work?"
"How can I support you if I don't earn money?"
"I can. I can support myself."
"But, you often use my card."
"..."
Ah? She used his card again?
She had so many cards in her bag, and she took any one of them. How could she have known that she had accidentally taken his?
She rummaged through her bag and found an unfamiliar card. She handed it to him. "Here, I'll return it to you."
He grabbed her hand and pulled her in front of him. With the sudden movement, she flipped the bag over.
Gu Chu looked at the things on the floor and glared at him. She threw the card on the table and bent down to pick up the things.
At this moment, someone knocked on the office door. He replied, "Come in."
It was his assistant. "Mr. Feng, Miss Gu wants to see you."
Miss Gu? Wasn't she here?
A thought flashed through her mind. Oh, it wasn't her, it was Gu Wan!
She quickly gave Feng Jia a look.
He understood what she meant and said to his assistant, "Let her in."
"Okay."
Feng Jia sat in his office chair while Gu Chu squatted by his feet, still picking up things. He asked, "What are you doing?"
"Nothing. I'm just curious about your friendship. What can she talk to you about?"
That's right, she wanted to eavesdrop openly.
Feng Jia sighed. "Sure."
Other than spoiling her, what else could he do?
After Gu Chu put the things in her bag, she carried it and hid in the space under the desk.
At this moment, Gu Wan pushed the door open and entered.
"Mr. Feng," She called out with a smile.
Feng Jia nodded. "Miss Gu."
"Are you eating? Sorry to bother you. I'm here to return your things. I'll leave after I'm done."
As she spoke, there was a sound of something being placed on the table. Gu Chu heard Gu Wan's voice again, "Your cufflinks were left at my place. Do you remember? It was when we were at the hotel in M Country."
Gu Chu listened to every word. She held her breath. What did she mean by that?
Hotel in M Country?! Wasn't he on a business trip?!!
They actually met at the hotel!
Then, what else did they do?!
The more Gu Chu thought about it, the colder her heart became.
Feng Jia replied flatly, "Thank you."
Gu Wan laughed. "You're welcome. You can continue eating. I'll go back first."
Feng Jia stood up politely and said to her, "I'll get my secretary to send you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he frowned.
That's right, it was Gu Chu. She was pinching his calf!
Feng Jia lowered his head to look at her. She was the first to complain. "You are stepping on my bag."
Then, she stood up.
A trace of shock flashed across Gu Wan's eyes. "Gu Chu, why are you here too?"
"Yeah." Gu Chu flipped her hair. "I'm having lunch with him. Have you eaten?"
Gu Wan put on a fake smile. "I have."
Gu Chu's gaze fell on the cufflinks on the table. She seemed to have seen them before.
She looked at them playfully and then said to Feng Jia, "Look at you. Why are you so careless? I bought them for you. What if you lose them?"
Her tone was coquettish. Feng Jia looked at her.
Gu Wan spoke softly for Feng Jia. "CEO Feng didn't lose it on purpose. Don't be angry at him."
Gu Chu asked, "Can you tell me how he lost them?"
Gu Wan was stunned for a moment before she continued, "Perhaps he wasn't careful."
Gu Chu pursued the question relentlessly, "How?"
Gu Wan said, "I think he dropped it by accident. I happened to see it. When I picked them up and was about to return them, he had already gone far away."
"Oh," Gu Chu said, "I see."
"Yeah, Chu Chu, you might have misunderstood," Gu Wan said with a smile.
Gu Chu: "..."
How could I not misunderstood what you said in the beginning!
Gu Wan said again, "Chuchu, you haven't been home for more than half a month. It's mom's birthday in two days. You must come back."
After that, she added, "We can't let outsiders see us as a joke."
The corners of Gu Chu's mouth curled up. "Okay, I'll definitely go back."
"That's good. If there's nothing else, I'll go now."
After saying that, she slowly left.
Heh, Gu Chu looked at her back and sneered in her heart.
She wasn't blind. Didn't she see that there were two bowls and two pairs of chopsticks on the table? She even said those misleading words.
She really was scheming.
At this moment, Feng Jia asked, "Why didn't I know that you bought these for me?"
They weren't important, so he didn't really care.
Gu Chu snorted. "Why didn't you tell me that you met her in country M?"
"It was just a coincidence. There's no need to tell you," He replied indifferently.
Ha!
Gu Chu was so angry that she lost her appetite instantly. She placed her chopsticks on the bowl. "You don't tell me anything. How do you think I would feel when I heard about you from another woman?"
Feng Jia listened to her words and said as if he understood her. "You're beating around the bush. Do you want my schedule?"
Then, he continued, "I'll ask my assistant to send you a copy in the future."
Gu Chu was so angry by his words that she stood up. She couldn't be bothered to say anything to him. She took her bag and was about to leave.
He thought that she was going to check up on him!
Feng Jia saw her stand up and frowned. "You're not going to eat anymore?"
Gu Chu rolled her eyes at him, slammed the door and left.
Feng Jia, who saw her leave, frowned even more.
Gu Chu walked out of the Feng building in a huff. She turned around and looked at the golden signboard. It looked so high and mighty that it made others feel intimidated.
She had to admit that Feng Jia was indeed an eligible bachelor who was coveted by many.
However, this did not mean that she had to compromise.
Whatever. Gu Chu planned to go back to her apartment. However, she remembered that her mother's birthday was coming up.
So she took a taxi home.
