Chapter 247: Chapter 250: Who to et
Halfway through drying his hair, there was a knock at the door. He glanced at the door and walked towards it.
The door opened, and Qiao Rui stood at the entrance. Upon seeing him open the door, he imdiately showed a smile, "Uh, the docunts. The person discussing the project this ti."
Gong Shaoyu pulled the docunts from his hand, ready to close the door. Qiao Rui quickly stepped forward to block his action.
"What’s the matter?" he asked coldly.
Qiao Rui shrank his neck and timidly asked, "Who are you eting tomorrow?" Judging by his tone on the phone, it should be a woman, right? Otherwise, why would he speak like that?
Could it be the woman who’s been staying at the Gong Family these past few years? He’d always heard that there was a woman living with the Gong Family, but unfortunately, Gong Shaoyu’s security was too tight, and all his efforts to find out had failed.
This ti, as soon as he arrived, he made a call and even used such a gentle tone.
The word "gentle" being associated with Gong Shaoyu was almost impossible. Usually, his deanor in front of his subordinates was, honestly, unspeakable...
When Gong Shaoyu called Ye Xinluo, Qiao Rui was standing nearby and was almost shocked out of his wits.
But wasn’t that woman supposed to be in Arica? How could she be in Z City?
Gong Shaoyu glanced at him sidelong, kicked his knee, catching Qiao Rui off guard. His knee tingling, he couldn’t help but step back a few paces.
At that mont, Gong Shaoyu, without hesitation, slamd the door shut with a "bang."
Qiao Rui stood dumbfounded at the door for quite so ti before turning back to his room.
Gong Shaoyu took the docunts back to the bedroom, flipped through them casually, and shortly after, his lips curved into a faint, enigmatic smile.
...
The next morning, Ye Xinluo was tidying her apartnt. Her phone vibrated on the bedside table, and she walked over to pick it up and take a look.
It was a ssage from Gong Shaoyu.
「Two o’clock in the afternoon, Sofie Cafe near Z University.」
Sofie Cafe?
Ye Xinluo thought for a mont, roughly pinpointing the location in her mind, then tapped twice on the screen.
「Okay, see you then.」
After sending the ssage, she put down the phone and continued tidying up.
At twelve-thirty, Ye Xinluo changed her clothes and got ready to leave. The place was quite far from Z City, so she needed to leave a bit early.
She arrived at the cafe and glanced at the ti, which was one fifty. She walked into the cafe and found a seat by the window.
The afternoon sun stread through the window onto Ye Xinluo, warm and not too bright. A waiter approached her and asked, "Ma’am, what would you like to drink?"
Ye Xinluo thought for a mont before replying, "Two coffees, please."
The waiter nodded and walked away. Once he was gone, Ye Xinluo leaned back in her seat, closing her eyes to enjoy the sun.
At exactly two o’clock, a black Bentley pulled up in front of the Sofie Cafe. The person in the passenger seat got out and opened the back door, making a gesture of invitation.
A few seconds later, a pair of polished black custom-made leather shoes appeared in view. Patrons in the café having their afternoon tea were also drawn to the scene, turning their heads and murmuring.
The gaze moved upwards, and the black suit pants wrapped tightly around a pair of long, straight legs. When Gong Shaoyu appeared in everyone’s view, they collectively gasped in surprise.
"Who is he? Is he a celebrity?"
"I don’t know, he doesn’t quite look like a celebrity. If he were in showbiz, he’d probably captivate countless young won! With looks like that, it’s a sha not to be in entertainnt..."
