The waiter was taken aback for a mont, it was the first ti they had co across soone ordering like this.
They speculated that it was probably a couple who had had a disagreent, and the man was trying to cheer his girlfriend up.
The waiter quickly acknowledged them and left, giving space to the two people.
Lu Wanwan had been staring at her phone the whole ti, waiting for a ssage from Little Momo when she heard Gu Annan speak, she didn’t even lift her eyelids.
Just thinking about what had just happened, she couldn’t describe how she felt.
Her heart was beating wildly, but when he kissed her, she didn’t feel the irresistible urge that she used to.
Instead, this intimate contact made her want to push him away imdiately.
She was perplexed by this extrely contradictory state of mind and could only vent through her rage.
Now that she had cald down, she still felt a hint of confusion.
Maybe she had just grown accustod to believing she still loved this man over the past six years, but in reality, her feelings for him were no longer the sa...
The vibration of her phone snapped her back to reality, "Mommy, we’re preparing to go ho on our own, do your work well!"
Lu Wanwan’s nose tingled.
The two Little Naibaos missed her so much that they had gone through so much trouble to find her, but she couldn’t et them, and they had to go ho disappointed.
She was failing terribly as a mom.
"Gu Annan," she stood up, holding her phone, and put both hands in her pockets, "Thanks, but I really can’t eat. I still have so work-related matters to attend to..."
The man sitting across from the table glanced at the difficulty and absent-mindedness on her face, "Do you really think I have ti to slowly dine with you here?"
She raised her eyes, wasn’t that his intention?
He had specifically asked for her to co over but had hardly ntioned any work.
The half-threatening dinner, she didn’t understand what he was actually thinking.
His initial desire to never see her again was very clearly his own request.
Gu Annan raised an eyebrow slightly, "Eat slowly by yourself, I have to rush back for a eting."
Her frown deepened. If he needed to hurry back for a eting, what was the point of dragging her out to dine?
Lu Wanwan didn’t believe it until she actually saw Gu Annan leave.
The sullenness she had felt monts ago suddenly vanished.
The over thirty dishes ordered by Gu Annan, did they still count? Were they paid for? Could she call the Little Naibaos over to eat together?
Before making a call, Lu Wanwan went to the private room’s entrance, intending to poke her head out to have a look and ask a waiter.
As soon as she opened the door and peered out, her head bumped into the chest of a man who had returned.
Gu Annan, who was about to open the door, looked down at her, "Can’t bear to see go? Shall I stay, then?"
"...I wanted to ask if the bill was paid." She rubbed her forehead and glared at him, "I don’t have that kind of money to eat over thirty dishes alone!"
Gu Annan curved his lips into a smile, walked in, and picked up the folder he had left on the table.
"The bill is paid, but I rembered I forgot sothing." He held up the proposal before leaving, "Let’s discuss how to modify this tomorrow."
Lu Wanwan rolled her eyes, "That’s not my responsibility."
He stopped and ca closer, "What if I insist on you taking charge of it?"
"Sick!" she squeezed out two words after a mont, speaking irritably.
The smile on the corners of Gu Annan’s mouth carried an intentionally provocative curve as he pulled open the door, and as a final reminder said, "I will request Mr. Ji to talk to your team. If they can’t see you, my people will convey the ssage. If this cooperation falls through due to your non-cooperation, your team will be disbanded."
"Do you even know what it ans to separate personal and professional life, Gu Annan?!" she said through clenched teeth, "With a CEO like you, how has Gu Corp not gone bankrupt yet?"
