CHAPTER 171: CHAPTER 171: SHENG QIANCHI, WHY WON’T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE?

Mo Jun followed closely behind Gu Jiayin and entered the elevator with her.

Arriving at the top floor, he politely invited her into Sheng Qianchi’s office to wait. "Miss Gu, Young Master Chi is in a meeting. Please sit here and wait for a moment."

Gu Jiayin didn’t speak, she sat down as instructed, casually observing Sheng Qianchi’s office.

Spacious, bright, displaying understated luxury everywhere.

Mo Jun brought in a cup of tea and then left.

Gu Jiayin waited quietly, cursing Sheng Qianchi ten thousand times in her heart. A haunting presence that won’t go away!

She thought they had parted ways, each starting a new life, but he kept watching her every move, even knowing the exact times she attempted to retake Twilight Manor.

Is she really going back to him?

This time, there was no reason for him to sleep on the floor. Without claiming her, there’s no way he would give her Twilight Manor.

Thinking about that possibility, Gu Jiayin felt her future was shrouded in fog, uncertain.

But no matter what, she had to get back Twilight Manor, at all costs.

...

Gu Jiayin didn’t know if Sheng Qianchi was deliberately making her wait. After more than an hour, he still hadn’t returned.

She couldn’t wait any longer.

She stood up and walked out.

Mo Jun was still guarding the door, as respectful as ever. Upon seeing her, he immediately bent slightly, "Miss Gu, Young Master Chi is still in the meeting."

"How much longer?"

"About another two hours."

Gu Jiayin, "..."

"Go tell him, I want to see him now."

Knowing he couldn’t afford to offend her, Mo Jun obediently went and returned shortly after, smiling apologetically, "Miss Gu, Young Master Chi says today’s meeting is very important, he doesn’t have time to see you. If you don’t want to wait, please go back."

Gu Jiayin, "..."

She was sure, he was definitely doing this on purpose to torture her.

She pushed Mo Jun aside and strode toward the meeting room.

With a bang, she pushed the meeting room door open in a very unfriendly manner.

In an instant, the dozens of people in the meeting room all turned their heads, focusing their dozens of eyes on Gu Jiayin.

Today, she wore a red suit, her long hair styled into a bun, her delicate face puffed with anger, and her cheeks were blushing.

Enchanting, stunning.

The large meeting room fell silent, the supervisor presenting the PPT was frozen at the moment before Gu Jiayin opened the door.

This woman had such nerve to barge into a meeting with Young Master Chi.

However, no one dared to say anything because they all saw Mo Jun respectfully following behind her, and when she rudely pushed the door open, not only did he not stop her, but he also shielded the door from bouncing back to avoid hitting her.

Looking at Sheng Qianchi, he showed no sign of anger, sitting quietly at the head position, gazing at the woman at the door, with a faint smile on his lips.

Everyone here was shrewd, knowing how to read expressions.

So, the meeting host immediately stepped forward to quietly ask, "Young Master Chi, should we pause the meeting?"

"Hmm." Sheng Qianchi responded faintly.

The host immediately announced, "Meeting paused, adjourned."

No one dared linger to watch the story of Young Master Chi and his woman, everyone swiftly packed up and dispersed completely.

Mo Jun carefully glanced at Sheng Qianchi and also left, leaving only Sheng Qianchi and Gu Jiayin in the large meeting room.

He sat calmly, as picturesque as ever, while she stood at the door, her gaze sharp.

They stared at each other for a long time.

Suddenly, she walked over, grabbed a pen from the table, and threw it to vent her anger.

Sheng Qianchi elegantly tilted his head, dodging the black pen aimed at his face, his lazy voice laced with amusement, "Be nicer to your man, if you hurt his face, how will you take him out in public?"

"Shameless!" Gu Jiayin spat out through gritted teeth.

Sheng Qianchi smiled softly, glanced at his watch, "What do you want to eat for lunch?"

Gu Jiayin ignored his question, directly asking, "What will it take for you to give me Twilight Manor?"

Sheng Qianchi was already getting up to leave, brushing past Gu Jiayin, "Let’s eat first."

Gu Jiayin, in anger, grabbed a notebook from the table and threw it at Sheng Qianchi, "I’m not interested in having lunch with you!"

Sheng Qianchi glanced down at the notebook on the floor, then stepped forward, pinching Gu Jiayin’s chin, "Jiayin, although I love you and spoil you, I really don’t like being refused, hmm?"

He lowered his head and kissed her cheek, "Acting out now will only make getting Twilight Manor harder."

After saying this, he turned and opened the meeting room door to walk out.

Gu Jiayin, "..."

Would he really give her Twilight Manor so easily if she didn’t act out?

Of course not.

If she didn’t act out, wouldn’t she be at a loss?

So, she had to act out, until he broke down emotionally.

When Gu Jiayin caught up to the office, Sheng Qianchi was already seated in the large luxurious office chair, organizing the things on the desk.

He had a smile on his face, his eyes calm, seemingly assured of getting what he wanted from her.

Gu Jiayin walked over, slapped the desk with a "bang," "Sheng Qianchi, what exactly do you want?"

Sheng Qianchi remained calm, not pausing his actions, "You always knew what I wanted."

Yes, she knew, he wanted her.

But...

Gu Jiayin sulked in silence for a few seconds, then opened up resentfully, "Sheng Qianchi, why are you such a haunting presence? I told you, I don’t want to be your woman."

"Hmm, I’m not forcing you." Sheng Qianchi grabbed his car keys, preparing to leave, "If you don’t want to, then leave, I’m not stopping you."

His demeanor seemed calm, yet it was arrogantly overwhelming, as if he was certain she would eventually walk into his trap.

Gu Jiayin turned, glaring at the man’s back, seething with anger, stepped forward to catch up, and kicked at the man’s calf.

Sheng Qianchi turned just in time to avoid it, watching her, "Gu Jiayin, you’re getting more and more audacious in front of me."

Meeting her just now, she’d attempted to hit him several times, truly spoiled by him.

But Gu Jiayin was far from appeased, looking at the man’s infuriating demeanor, she couldn’t control her temper, stepped forward, grabbed his wrist, and bit down.

Sheng Qianchi, "..."

This woman could bite, surprising even her; why didn’t she just use her nano-tube silk? Ha!

However, he didn’t stop her, allowed her to act, even looked down leisurely watching her.

Gu Jiayin bit down until she tasted blood.

Her anger was released.

She looked up at him with a mix of resentment, lacking the previous intensity, "Can’t you just let me go with some grace?"

Sheng Qianchi’s eyes darkened, her resentful kitten-like demeanor made him feel all his blood rushing to one place.

Suddenly, he felt parched, craving relief.

He suddenly gripped her wrist, pulled her close, and lowered his head to kiss her.
