Chapter 82: Putting On a Show for Him
Gu Chu was in a good mood as she ate the shrimps he peeled. From the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the person sitting at the next table.
She chose a seat that was close to the CEO of Shengyan so that he could hear their conversation.
Initially, when he heard her calling him “brother-in-law” he was surprised and glanced over. Later, when he found out that it was fake, he shook his head and laughed.
Gu Chu asked, “What’s the update on Shen Shan? As long as I don’t find out his background, I won’t feel at ease. You have no idea how scared I was that day, but when you showed up at the police station, I suddenly felt like I wasn’t scared anymore.”
Feng Jia didn’t fall for her tricks. “Really? Your father told me that you were brave and want to go back to the apartment alone?”
Gu Chu: “…”
Did he not get that she was trying to be flirt?
She was speechless for a long while before she regained her composure. “Although we’re engaged, we’re not married yet. I can’t stay at your place.”
She suddenly suggested, “How about we stay at your place on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and mine on the remaining?”
Feng Jia did not answer her question. Instead, he answered the previous one. “The police have found a doctor to do a psychiatric evaluation on Shen Shan. They’re currently deciding whether he was sane when he attacked you.”
“Oh.”
She actually did not care about the matter. She continued to ask relentlessly, “Feng Jia, what do you think of my suggestion just now?”
Feng Jia ignored her again. “I’ve checked his route from the capital to Haicheng City. I might find something.”
“Feng Jia!” Gu Chu was upset and shouted angrily.
Feng Jia peeled the last shrimp for her, put it into her bowl, and took off the disposable gloves, he felt that she was a little strange today. “People who know about our relationship won’t care if you stayed in my house or not. You can just ignore the others. Instead of thinking about all this nonsense, why don’t you think about how you’re going to explain the problem to your father on Monday?”
Gu Chu: “…”
She wanted to show off their love, but she didn’t expect him to be so tactless.
She glanced at the CEO of Shengyan who was sitting nearby. He should have heard her calling Feng Jia by his name just now.
She whined, “It’s all because of you and Gu Wan. Previously, CEO Li thought that you two were a couple. If I don’t ask you out tonight, people will really think that you two are a couple.”
Feng Jia raised his eyebrows. “Why don’t we go to the Civil Affairs Bureau now?”
Gu Chu was annoyed. “Who wants to get married to you so rashly? In short, as long as you and Gu Wan don’t clarify things, I won’t marry you. Besides, it’s easy to get married, it’s hard to get a divorce. Don’t tell me that if we can’t get a divorce, we’ll have to go to court?”
Feng Jia had always been cold and emotionless. Seeing that she was being pretentious, he asked, “Everything won’t do. What do you want?”
She didn’t want outsiders to hear this, so she lowered her voice and said, “Then tell me about your relationship with Gu Wan.”
Feng Jia replied directly, “I have nothing to do with her.”
Gu Chu chuckled, “A ghost would believe that.”
“You’re not a ghost.”
Gu Chu pursed her lips. “Don’t think that by saying that, you’re off the hook.”
Feng Jia raised his eyebrows. He thought that she had gone a overboard tonight.
He did not expect that she could go even further in the next second.
She stretched out one hand and three fingers. She looked like a child with a serious expression. “Unless you swear to me.”
Feng Jia’s eyes flashed with a hint of a smile. Just as he was about to raise his fork, he turned around and stuffed the fork into her mouth. “Eat your shrimp.”
Gu Chu: “…”
She chewed, looking at him with dissatisfaction.
This bastard. Every time she mentioned Gu Wan, he refused to say anything.
Could it be that she really owed him in her past life?
Gu Chu suddenly looked at him in annoyance. She had enough of the acting. She removed the napkin from her lap and said, “I’m going to the washroom.”
Feng Jia nodded.
Gu Chu got up and left their table. Just then, a waitress walked up to her. Her eyes flashed. She turned her body to avoid the waitress in an exaggerated manner, but she slipped and rammed straight toward the next table!
She fell onto CEO Sheng Yan, who was drinking wine. The wine in his glass spilled all over his body!
