Zuo Hancheng raised his eyebrows.”Oh? Miss Gu Shishi is interested in Zuo?”
The color on Gu Shishi’s face could no longer be described with a single color. Anhao liked her colorful appearance very much.
Mrs. Gu also did not expect Gu Anhao to still have such an indomitable and irritating personality after so many years. She really hated that she did not directly beat her to death back then. Now, she had allowed this little girl to stand on top of her and her daughter.
Mrs. Gu said straightforwardly,” It doesn’t matter if our Shishi is interested in Mr. Zuo or not. But Gu Anhao is an awkward illegitimate daughter. I’m afraid she’s not worthy of someone like you. Mr. Zuo, whether your marriage is real or fake, you have to think twice.”‘
Gu Shishi snorted and turned her head away proudly.
“Mrs. Gu, you’re worrying too much. Anhao and I are in love. Even if she’s just a poor student with no family background, she’s still the one I love.”
As Zuo Hancheng spoke, he patted Anhao’s shoulder gently. His eyes were indifferent, but his tone was serious and unquestionable.
Mrs. Gu looked at Anhao unhappily as she was protected by Zuo Hancheng. However, she was more afraid that her daughter Shishi would make a big fuss and embarrass herself in such an occasion, so she held Gu Shishi’s hand and whispered, “”Shishi, your Auntie Yan is still waiting for me to go over and discuss something. Let’s go first.”
He was looking for a reason to retreat?
Didn’t the mother-daughter duo rush over just now as if they wanted to bury Gu Anhao into the ground?
Was he so weak in front of Zuo Hancheng?
Anhao looked at them calmly. She was sneering in her heart, but her mouth was full of smiles.”Take care, I won’t send you off.”
Zuo Hancheng’s smile was cold, and his gaze was distant and cold. He had no intention of continuing the conversation with them.
“You…”
Gu Shishi turned around and wanted to say something, but Mrs. Gu pulled her away forcefully.
After they left, Gu Shishi said indignantly,””Mom, even if Zuo Hancheng isn’t someone that can be easily provoked, I’m really going to die of anger when you see Gu Anhao like that! What right does she have!”
Mrs. Gu said worriedly,”Shishi, I don’t know what’s going on in City A recently. There have been endless incidents and pressure on us in the military, political, and business worlds these past two days.”
“This Zuo Hancheng is not an ordinary person. It’s best if you don’t provoke him! In addition, I’ve been feeling uneasy recently, so I’ll just put up with it for now. It’s impossible for Gu An to really marry Zuo Hancheng, but they should still have some relationship. Bear with it and wait until things in the city calm down..
“But, but she…’
Gu Shishi hated Gu Anhao and Zuo Hancheng so much when she thought about how they were so close to each other.
Then, he suddenly thought of the two people who were kissing on the balcony just now. They seemed to be very loving…
Gu Shishi’s heart was instantly blocked.
The figure from before was Zuo Hancheng! And the corner of the dress of the woman he was hugging and kissing was Anhao’s dress!
Could it be that the two of them were really…
The more Gu Shishi thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. She turned her head and glared in Anhao’s direction, only to see Zuo Hancheng holding up the man’s suit jacket on Anhao’s shoulder. The degree of care he gave her was obvious.
He might as well not look back!
Gu Shishi was so angry that she felt her teeth itch.
How could this be! How could this be! How could he let that b * tch be so smug in front of him! Absolutely not!
The banquet had just started, but Anhao was already full from eating cake.
Until the start of the charity event, Anhao had been sitting quietly beside Zuo Hancheng. She was drooling over the various delicacies and wines on the table, but she hated herself for being in such a hurry to eat the cake in the first place.
There was not much space in her stomach now, but she still tried her best to secretly pick up some delicious food when everyone occasionally moved their chopsticks.
However, this kind of occasion, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business, business
Only Anhao’s attention was on the table.
He looked at the red lobsters on the table, glanced at the crabs on the plate in front of him, and then looked at the other delicate-looking dishes. He took a little when no one was paying attention, and then took a little when no one was paying attention.
In the end, she was full and in a good mood.
Gu Shishi and Mrs. Gu would occasionally turn her head to look at them when she saw them sitting at the table not far away from them. Anhao continued to eat calmly and ignored Gu Shishi’s murderous gaze.
Zuo Hancheng glanced at Anhao.’”‘Don’t eat too much and hurt your stomach.
Have you forgotten about the injection at the hospital last time?”
“Oh, I won’t get hurt today. Just now, it was just some cake. It’s so sweet that it’s easy to feel full, but in fact, I didn’t eat much.”
As she spoke, she opened the crab with a smile. She slowly chewed on the crab leg while looking at the various people on the stage.
“The items auctioned at this kind of charity event are all expensive. Where will the final donation go?”Anhao asked casually.
Zuo Hancheng did not answer her. He merely glanced at her and said,””Eat quietly and don’t ask questions.”
Alright then…
Actually, she also knew that the so-called donation to Project Hope was not certain. Zuo Hancheng must have known the inside story, so he was too lazy to participate or answer such a question.
Since Big Boss Zuo had told her to eat quietly, she would just be a good baby who only knew how to eat and not talk tonight.
It was not until the boring charity auction ended that everyone picked up their chopsticks more frequently, and an especially beautiful and luxurious dance floor had been arranged in the banquet hall.
Anhao was already full. She sat in her seat and watched the men and women dancing on the dance floor while drinking champagne.
Looking at the various people coming and going in front of her, all of whom were upper-class people, Anhao sipped her glass and looked at the dance floor in the distance. She thought of her childhood in the Yi family and later in the Gu family. After so many years, she seemed to have not left the so-called upper-class class, but she had never really integrated into it.
It was her first time attending a banquet like this. She felt great when she thought about how Gu Shishi and Mrs. Gu were so angry that they wanted to explode but did not dare to retort.
Just as she was thinking about it, the wine glass in her hand was suddenly snatched away. She turned her eyes abruptly and saw Zuo Hancheng snatching the wine glass from her hand and placing it on the table. Anhao smiled and suddenly leaned her head on his shoulder..
