Feng Jia looked up. "Sky Garden project? The one from the Lin Corporation?"
Mr. Gu said, "That's right."
Feng Jia looked at Gu Chu with an inexplicable expression.
Gu Chu ignored him.
After signing the contract, Mr. Gu and Feng Jia chatted for a while before walking out of the meeting room.
Gu Chu waited outside and kicked the corner of the wall with the tip of her shoe. When she saw them coming out, she retracted her foot.
Mr. Gu said, "Chu Chu, take Feng Jia to the restaurant first. I'll be right there."
Gu Chu expressionlessly gestured for him to come over.
She took two quick steps and pressed the elevator button. She said coldly, "CEO Feng, you refused to give the project to me. Instead, you gave it to my sister to pave the way for her. You've really put in a lot of effort."
Feng Jia looked straight ahead. "The Sky Garden project is the most important project for the Lin Corporation in the first quarter of next year. He's actually willing to give you half of it?"
Gu Chu snorted. "CEO Feng, you really have deep feelings for my sister."
Feng Jia sneered. "The Gu and the Lin family really have a good relationship."
At this moment, the elevator arrived. With a ding, the two faces that were unhappy with each other were reflected in the elevator.
In the elevator, no one looked at each other. The narrow space was filled with a dull feeling.
After exiting the elevator, Gu Chu did not wait for him. She walked in front of him in a hurry.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got!
Gu Wan had the position of vice director the moment she entered. Her identity made people speculate. If she did not have any outstanding results, her subordinates would definitely not be convinced by her. They would think that she had entered through the back door.
But now, Feng Jia handed the project to her! Now, who would not be convinced?!
Wasn't he f * cking helping Gu Wan?!
F * cking man! Instead of helping his fiancée, he actually helped his fiancée's sister!
What the F * ck was he thinking?!
It was lunchtime. This area was a business center, and several corporate buildings were there. All the employees came out to eat, and the road was filled with people all of a sudden.
Gu Chu walked in front angrily, and Feng Jia shouted from behind her, "You're walking so fast in high heels? Did you forget that you sprained your ankle last time?"
She stopped in her tracks.
At this moment, Gu Wan caught up with her. "CEO Feng, Chuchu, why are you walking so fast? I almost couldn't keep up."
Gu Chu did not respond.
Gu Wan looked around and pointed in the opposite direction. "Isn't dad talking about that restaurant?"
Gu Chu said directly, "You guys go and eat. I..."
Before he could finish, Feng Jia interrupted her. "Lead the way."
Gu Wan" "Okay."
Gu Chu turned around and wanted to leave, but Feng Jia grabbed her wrist and forcefully dragged her over.
Did he really want her to have this meal?
Gu Chu struggled for a while but did not manage to break free. However, she did not want Gu Wan to laugh at her, so she reluctantly followed her.
The restaurant was near the company. It was a high-class restaurant.
Mr Gu's secretary had already reserved a table. The manager of the restaurant was waiting at the door, personally leading the way for them.
Before entering the private room, Feng Jia suddenly received a call, so Gu Chu and Gu Wan went in first.
The manager handed the menu to Gu Wan, who took it and placed it in front of Gu Chu. "Chuchu, you can order. When dad comes, we can ask them to serve the dishes."
Gu Chu sat down and said nonchalantly, "You're so outstanding. Ordering a dish is a piece of cake, so go ahead and order."
Gu Wan retracted her hand and pursed her lips. "Chuchu, do you mind that I signed the project? Actually, I can explain."
Hehe, who was she pretending to be?
Gu Chu was really annoyed by her behavior. She said directly, "Of course not. It doesn't matter who signs it."
After that, she put on a fake professional smile.
After that, she said, "What did you want to talk to him about on the night of mom's birthday party?"
A trace of panic flashed across Gu Wan's face. "No, nothing."
Gu Chu put on a fake smile. "Is that so? I heard from Feng Jia that you were the one who looked for him. We came over before we could say anything. That's why I wanted to ask you. What did you want to talk to him about?"
Gu Wan was stunned. She pursed her lips and said, "I just wanted to ask him something."
It was really her who took the initiative to look for Feng Jia.
She wondered why Feng Jia was so energetic. He had just slept with her and then went to look for Gu Wan?
She said, "You should ask me instead of him. What do you want to know?"
Gu Wan was not that stupid. She immediately understood that she was trying to trick her. She smiled calmly. "CEO Feng knows what I want to ask. You should ask him instead of me."
Gu Wan was even playing the "this is our secret" game in front of her.
Gu Chu narrowed her eyes and was about to say something when Feng Jia came back from the phone call.
Mr. Gu also came in. He asked, "Chuchu, have you ordered?"
Gu Wan answered, "I'm waiting for you."
Mr. Gu nodded and looked at Feng Jia. "The braised pork with preserved vegetables is good. Do you want to try it?"
Feng Jia replied warmly, "Sure."
Mr. Gu ordered the dishes while chatting with Feng Jia. Mr. Gu was also a very talkative person. He could chat about anything. Feng Jia would occasionally reply to him, so it was not awkward.
Gu Chu was not interested in what they were saying. She lowered her head and swiped her phone. No one knew what she was looking at.
She suddenly remembered what he had just said about spraining her ankle.
That happened last autumn.
Feng Jia and his friends had invested in a resort villa. On the opening day, they went there to check it out.
The villa was close to the mountains. The scenery was excellent. It was a good place to hike and get some fresh air.
At that time, they were in high spirits. They had planned to watch the sunrise together the next day. That was why they had gotten up at three or four in the morning. However, they did not expect the mountain to be so high. They had walked for almost two hours and still had not arrived.
Gu Chu was about to give up, but when she looked up, she saw a ray of golden light rising from the horizon.
It could not be described with simple words. Without seeing it with one's own eyes, it's hard to imagine. Therefore, she wanted to hold on to the ray of light and ran up with all her might.
On the hillside, there were weeds growing everywhere. She was not paying attention, so she stepped on it and missed. Just like that, she sprained her foot.
When they went down the mountain, Feng Jia carried her on his back.
Gu Chu still remembered the warm wind that day. The sunlight shone through the mottled leaves and dripped onto his face. Even the air was filled with the scent of fresh herbs. She leaned on his shoulder, seeing a small mole behind his ear and fell asleep.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, he found that she had fallen asleep. He carried her on his back all the way to her room.
When she woke up, she smiled at Feng Jia. "So you are quite lovable when you're affectionate."
Gu Chu's chest felt a little stuffy when she thought of this. She realized that she was not only lustful towards him, she had unknowingly fallen in love.
But what about Feng Jia?
It seemed to be just lust.
He was never moved.
Gu Chu didn't like to become so fragile. The more she thought about it, the colder the expression on her face became.
At this moment, Mr. Gu noticed that she hadn't opened her mouth, so he said, "Chuchu, why aren't you talking to Feng Jia? Did you have a fight?"
Gu Chu said lazily, "I saw that you guys were having a good chat, so I didn't want to disturb you."
Mr. Gu looked at her with some displeasedly. The Feng Corporation just got a share of the project this time, so why are you still quarreling with him?
Gu Chu said helplessly, "Alright, I'll talk to him."
Although she said that, she thought in her heart, "What is there to talk about between us? Besides, didn't he have something to talk to Gu Wan in private? Why didn't he talk to her?"
She looked up at Feng Jia and asked directly, "Why did the Feng Corporation invest in Wang Tai Group?"
Then, she added, "I thought you just wanted to work with them"
Feng Jia looked at her and didn't say anything.
He didn't answer.
This angered Gu Chu again.
Bastard, you won't speak, right? Then don't ever speak!
What's so great about it!
Feng Jia saw that her eyes were filled with anger, then, he said unhurriedly, "Wang Tai Group previously claimed that they had sufficient funds and that the Yangchang project did not require any investment. But now that they suddenly want to cooperate with the Feng Corporation, people will definitely guessed that they are short of funds."
When Gu Chu heard that, she immediately understood, "The injection of funds can be seen as the Feng Corporation being optimistic about Wang Tai Group's future development. This way, the Feng Corporation and Wang Tai Group's stock prices will continue to rise, and the Feng Corporation will also be able to participate in the Yangchang project. Wang Tai Group will still be able to tide over the financial crisis and kill three birds with one stone."
Feng Jia nodded in satisfaction, "Mm."
Gu Chu snorted, "You're so shrewd."
When the waiter served the dishes, Gu Wan interrupted their conversation. "Dad, Mr. Feng, Chuchu, hurry up and eat."
Mr. Gu also sensed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between them, so he said to her, "Chuchu, give Feng Jia a bowl of soup."
Gu Chu pursed her lips and picked up the spoon, wanting to serve him the soup.
However, a hand reached for the spoon before her. "I'll do it."
