Chapter 5 Your Senior Is Back
- Gu Annuan's face fell and she gave the invitation back to her. “Chuchu, take it back. I don't want to affect your relationship with Huo Chengyun.”
- “Nuan, what am I to Huo Chengyun? We aren't related at all. He's getting married and I'm pissed at that fact, so this is my revenge. Nuan, you'll help me, right?”
- Gu Annuan immediately knew what was going on. The Huo family must be thinking of introducing Huo Chengyun's fiancée at the charity dinner tomorrow, hence Chuchu was pissed off.
- “Chuchu, thank you.” Gu Annuan took the invitation, “I'll keep it. Take care.”
- Qiao Chuchu broke into a smile, “Don't worry, I'm still his sister officially. He can't hurt me.
- Gu Annuan could only smile awkwardly at her. Qiao Chuchu was Huo Chengyun's stepsister. Although he was decisive and merciless, he wouldn't do anything to hurt his stepsister.
- “Eh? Nuan, Lu Xiuran should also be invited to the charity dinner tomorrow. Won't he bring you along?” Qiao Chuchu sobered up a little and asked in confusion.
- Something pricked at Gu Annuan's eyes. She couldn't bring herself to say that he already had a date. Instead, she chuckled and said, “Xiuran left on a business trip this morning and couldn't make it in time for the dinner tomorrow. The invitation is with him. Actually, he wanted to bring me there but he really wasn't free to.”
- “Oh, I see. I thought you two had a fight!” Qiao Chuchu chortled and continued drinking.
- Gu Annuan could feel an ache expanding in her chest. After texting Huo Chengyun secretly, she stood up and said, “Chuchu, I need to leave now.”
- “No! How can you leave so soon? Nuan, how can you do this to me?” Qiao Chuchu pursed her lips, “Lu Xiuran isn't at home. Why do you need to hurry back? To meet your secret love? Oh, by the way, do you know that our senior from college, Fu...Senior Fu is back!”
- “Chuchu, stop joking.” Gu Annuan put on a stern front. She was brought up very strictly. The Gu family wasn't bothered about money, but they cared about their reputation the most. Words like “secret lover” were a taboo to them.
- Qiao Chuchu dropped her smile, “Nuan, I'm sorry. I must be drunk.”
- Gu Annuan could see that her cheeks were flushed red. She was afraid something might happen to Qiao Chuchu, so she stayed with her until a tall figure strode toward them. The man was obviously Huo Chengyun. She immediately grabbed her bag and left.
- Meanwhile, a Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked in front of Sultry Night.
- The secretary, Shen Yue who was in the driver seat turned and asked the man seated behind. “Mr. Fu, Mr. Huo just left the car. Should we return to the villa now?”
- Fu Siye was seated on the cozy, slate-gray sheepskin seat with his legs crossed. Half of his face was hidden by the newspaper in his hands. His gaze was focused on the familiar license plate outside the window and the figure who was walking toward it.
- When he heard Shen Yue's voice, his fingers that were clutching the newspaper tightened slightly. The man snorted and wound up the window immediately.
- Gu Annuan was still wearing the smoky gray suit she put on that afternoon. In her hands was a bright red invitation card.
- Fu Siye's lips curled up in a smile and his gaze darkened slightly. He put down the newspaper and told Shen Yue, “Get a bouquet of roses from Roseonly for Miss Bo. Invite her to the charity dinner tomorrow as my date.”
- “What?' Shen Yue was shocked. But Mr. Fu's official image is that of a man who is out of touch with reality and women? What is he going to do now?
