Chapter 354: 354 Call Out ’Husband’ and Listen (3)_1
When Eleven saw Lin Qiang, she suddenly remembered something else from last night.
She quickly dialed Gu Liancheng’s number.
As soon as he picked up, he teased, "You’re calling me so soon?"
Eleven wasn’t in the mood for jokes, checking to ensure nobody was around before covering her mouth with her hand and whispering, "About last night — were you in a meeting?"
She could hear others talking on his end, seemingly deep in discussion.
"Go ahead."
"About what happened with Xiao Man last night, you aren’t going to question her, right? Can you pretend not to know?"
There must have been a man in there. Xiao Man wouldn’t have flung herself at the door and torn her own clothes. Looking back, it was quite embarrassing. She had mistaken the vigorous physical collision in the throes of passion for fighting!
It definitely was not Gu Liancheng, but as for who it was, Eleven didn’t care to inquire.
"I promised her yesterday not to mention it. Can you keep her secret too? Otherwise, I will feel sorry..."
She didn’t want to disclose it, but she had erroneously assumed that Gu Liancheng was the man in the room. Talk about a huge misunderstanding!
"Who do you think I am, asking about people’s private affairs for no reason?" She was worrying unnecessarily. Hearing her comment amused him so much he had to leave the conference room to avoid others hearing the conversation about ’private affairs’.
"It’s good if you won’t ask..."
They are in a good relationship, aren’t they?
There doesn’t seem to be any romantic feelings between him and Shang Muxue, just years of guilt and obligation towards Cute. So, she figured, his real love must be Xiao Man? They make a handsome couple.
She accidentally misspoke yesterday. If he were to question Xiao Man about who the man was, wouldn’t that show it was her who let the cat out of the bag?
Men usually get upset when such things happen to their girlfriends, right? Much like her and Jin Xiangbei.
As for her and the famous star Xiao Man, they only had a brief encounter and a couple of conversations. However, she wouldn’t resort to such a low move.
"Shang Qianxun, what makes you think I would go and ask Xiao Man these questions?" Gu Liancheng leaned against a wall with a hand in his pocket. When a female employee coquettishly greeted him, he simply responded with an expressionless nod. Once she passed by, he chuckled, "Do you think our relationship is so good that I have an obligation to care about this matter?"
Eleven felt a pang of nervousness, checked her surroundings, and said, "Don’t shout my name! What if someone hears?"
"I’m at the company. Don’t worry, you aren’t so famous that everybody knows you. Even if I shout your name a thousand times, no one would know it’s you. Why worry? I just like the name; it’s nice to say out loud."
Qianxun, it’s a nice name.
Eleven, what a creative idea she came up with!
However, all her current identification documents bear the name Fang Eleven. If she wanted to revert to Qianxun, she would need to change her name on all her documents.
"I don’t care what you do, but remember to keep this secret for me, or else—"
"Or else?"
"Or else I’ll spread the news about your future wife and see who ends up being embarrassed."
"Do as you please." He replied indifferently.
In a flash, Eleven pictured Jiujiu shrugging. Like father, like son!
"..." She hung up!
She really couldn’t care to talk any further.
After putting her phone away, she pondered over his words... What did he mean?
If she reversed his statement, did it mean that his relationship with Xiao Man was not so close that he needed to concern himself with who she was sleeping with?
