Heyday Love: A Heaven-sent Husband

Chapter 167 - To Solve the Problem Together



Chapter 167 To Solve the Problem Together

At the time, their foods are served. Gu Luan pours a glass of champagne and passes it to Xia Ning, saying: “Cheers.”

Xia Ning pauses for a while. Then, she clinks her glass with Gu Luan’s.

When Xia Ning hears the clink, she is suddenly shocked.

She wonders whether what she is doing with Gu Luan is a normal communication of business.

She didn’t tell Yi Yunrui frankly about this. If Yi Yunrui knows about it…

“Are you thinking about Commander Yi?” Gu Luan is aware that Xia Ning is silent with the glass in her hand. He gently smiles.

Xia Ning is stunned. She nods and puts down the glass.

Gu Luan’s eyes flash. He gives a sigh: “Director Xia, it is time for dinner. We are just having normal communication. Commander Yi will understand.” Gu Luan pauses here, “I believe that he also had a lot of dinners like this.”

Xia Ning’s heart tightens. She tries to put on a smile and lowers her head to eat the food.

The sole fish fillet is very delicious. However, this kind of dinner, she will have once but never.

Because she feels…bad in her heart.

During the dinner, Gu Luan keeps talking with her about interesting things. Xia Ning tries hard to keep smiling as responses. It may seem to be a very harmonious romantic dinner to others, but Xia Ning doesn’t want to stay here even for a while.

She remembers that she will need to work overtime later and feels very bad.

Gu Luan notices Xia Ning’s uneasiness so he doesn’t want to force her. He symbolically eats some food and wipes his mouth: “Let’s go to another place. I want to talk to you about something.”

Xia Ning frowns: “Aren’t we going to work later?”

“Yes, we are.” Gu Luan puts down the tissue, “Because of this issue, we are to work overtime.”

Xia Ning has experienced the Yin Jingsi issue. She instinctively refuses and shakes her head: “Director, you are my boss. However, if you don’t tell me clearly, I am afraid that I am not going with you.”

Xia Ning is so decisive, which is beyond Gu Luan’s expectation.

Xia Ning looks around and sees that there are not many people around and other seats are quite away from them. She says: “Director Gu, actually this is quite a nice place. Why don’t we talk here? It is better for both you and me. After all, we have to avoid some rumors.”

Gu Luan thinks for a while and understands what Gu Luan is concerned about.

“OK.” Gu Luan says but he is reluctant to tell.

Xia Ning waits patiently. She wants to finish the talk with Gu Luan and goes home.

Yi Yunrui said that he would wait for her at home.

Gu Luan thinks for quite a while and then he lifts his eyes to stare at her. He says word by word: “I know what happened between Yin Jingsi and you.”

Hearing this, Xia Ning loses her color. She asks at once: “What do you know?”

“Don’t worry.” Gu Luan comforts her, “I happened to find out this. At that time, you were drunk and Yin Jingsi called…I really knew it by chance. Sorry.”

Xia Ning stares at Gu Luan blankly. After quite a while, she closes her eyes and gives a sigh, asking: “Did you see the photos?”

Gu Luan hesitates for a while: “I realized the strange tone of Yin Jingsi when she spoke, so I had an investigation. I saw the photos of Ou Yixuan and you.”

Xia Ning turns pale: “Where did you see the photos?”

“I checked your phone.” Gu Luan responds honestly.

“…” Gu Luan checked her phone!

God. As to the confidentiality of privacy, Gu Luan knows better than anyone else.

How could he check her phone without her permission?

Gu Luan is aware that Xia Ning is angry. He explains at once: “Ning, sorry. At that time, I was really worried about you when I heard Yin Jingsi threatening you. I felt anxious so I checked your phone. I am really sorry…”

“Then what you are doing now is to apologize to me?” Xia Ning darkens her face, “Good. Now, you have done it. Can I leave now?”

“Wait a minute.” Gu Luan stops Xia Ning who is going to leave, “Actually I ask you to come out today to discuss how to deal with the problem.”

Xia Ning is just going to respond but she suddenly changes her mind. Today, Yin Jingsi said that someone was protecting her. Is that Gu Luan?

“It was you solving the problems for me these days?” Xia Ning tentatively asks.

Gu Luan nods: “Yes. It was me. Ning, now, you have something kept in Yin Jingsi’s hand, she would not give you a break. Does Commander Yi know anything about the photos?”

What he asked hits the weak point of Xia Ning.

“No, he doesn’t.”

“What are you going to do? Are you going to tell him frankly?”

Xia Ning feels her heart aching: “No. I am not going to tell him.”

Being aware the uneasiness of Xia Ning, Gu Luan feels a little anxious: “If you have not figured out the solution, do you like to discuss with me about how to deal with it perfectly?”

Xia Ning curls her lips. Generally speaking, it is not a problem to get a third person involved.

Not to mention that Gu Luan is a man, which may cause misunderstanding to Yi Yunrui.

Gu Luan sees that Xia Ning is hesitating. He continues: “Do you think that Commander Yi will forgive you if he knows what happened?”

Well…If Yi Yunrui knows, will he forgive her?

Xia Ning thinks for quite a while and she shakes her head: “I don’t know…”

“Since you are unsure and don’t have any idea about that, why not get some help from another person? Ning, I am your supervisor and friend.”

Gu Luan stares at Xia Ning intensely. Xia Ning feels moved. However, this is not an issue to be known by a third person.

Gu Luan is a man. Not to mention that his attitude towards her is so ambiguous.

Thinking of this, Xia Ning makes up her mind.

“Director Gu, thank you for your consideration. However, this is my personal issue. I don’t want to get you involved. We talk about it this evening. And I hope this is the end of this issue. If there isn’t any other thing, I may leave now. My husband is waiting for me at home. Excuse me.”

Xia Ning deliberately emphasizes the word “husband”, which makes Gu Luan feel painful.

Gu Luan sees Xia Ning is going to stand up and turn to leave. He catches up with her: “You didn’t drive your car here. I may drive you home.”

Xia Ning slightly pauses: “Then, please send me back to the parking of the company and I will drive home myself.”

Xia Ning says decisively. Gu Luan frowns but has to agree: “OK. I will drive you back to the parking.”

They walk out of the restaurant. At the time, in a booth inside the restaurant, An Zeyou strokes his forehead, “What is Mrs. Yi doing with that Master Gu here? To have a romantic dinner?”

An Zeyou finally gets some time to enjoy his dinner here. Unexpectedly, he sees Gu Luan and Mrs. Yi having dinner together here, while Mrs. Yi seems unhappy.

Romantic dinner? Shit. How dare Mr. Gu seduce his sister-in-law publicly?

No way. If there can be any seducing, he, An Zeyou should take the priority. It can’t be the turn of that seemingly intelligent Mr. Gu!

Thinking of this, An Zeyou turns his eyes and lifts his lips. He puts on an evil smile. Then, he takes out his phone and calls Yi Yunrui: “Hello, Brother Yi…”
