CHAPTER 133: CHAPTER 133: IMPRESSIVE TACTICS

The former master was as sad as Gu Heng’s expression is awkward now.

The evils he once sat down with have finally blossomed today.

Gu Ningyue admired her expression, then her slender fingers held the fork, slowly delivering a cut steak into her mouth.

Her actions of chewing were extremely graceful, seemingly very satisfied with the food this time.

She knew that this time, she wouldn’t need to say anything; there would be someone to stand up for her.

Sure enough, Ling Tianyou’s fingers knocked on the table again: "Chairman Gu, what do you mean by this? I didn’t know Ning Yue was always subjected to such grievances at home."

Gu Zheng’s hand holding the wine glass stiffened slightly, "It’s all things from long ago. Children playing around, now that Xiao Heng has grown up, he certainly won’t do such things again. Rest assured, President Ling, if it happens again, I will personally send Xiao Heng over to apologize."

Ling Tianyou smiled at these words, but the smile did not reach his eyes: "What Chairman Gu said is a bit strange. Ning Yue is gentle and considerate, understanding others. Even though we’ve been together for just a few months, I feel it’s my honor to marry Ning Yue. At home, I don’t want her to suffer any grievances. But how come when it comes to Chairman Gu, Ning Yue suffers such grievances, and yet you don’t feel any heartache?"

Gu Zheng was taken aback, his expression became even more embarrassed: "Naturally, it hurts me, it’s just that so much time has passed. Bringing it up now would only add more gaps between the two children."

Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but sneer at these words.

After this sound, Ling Tianyou seemed to realize something, looking at Gu Zheng and said: "Chairman Gu is truly a person who understands the situation, unlike me. If it were my daughter who suffered grievances, no matter what, I would ask about the situation at the time. All are your own children, how can you be partial?"

Gu Zheng knew that Ling Tianyou came with Gu Ningyue today just to prevent her from being wronged.

But he thought, based on Ling Tianyou’s character, he wouldn’t say much.

Yet he underestimated Gu Ningyue’s position in Ling Tianyou’s heart.

Seeing Gu Zheng being reprimanded by Ling Tianyou, Gu Wanwan spoke again: "President Ling, please don’t be angry. It’s indeed Xiao Heng’s fault in this matter. There’s no arguing about it! But today, on account of my finally getting engaged, please don’t hold it against Xiao Heng. I believe he will certainly change in the future."

Gu Ningyue sized up Gu Wanwan’s face, her eyes were pleading and seemed sincere.

It’s rare she didn’t show that innocent, pitiful expression to Ling Tianyou.

Well, she’s sensible.

Knowing that Ling Tianyou now only has eyes for her and couldn’t accommodate another woman, Gu Wanwan wisely refrained from provoking and causing annoyance.

Ling Tianyou glanced at her lightly and then fell silent again.

Gu Ningyue inwardly wanted to laugh, suppressing it for a long time before lifting her head to put on a cold face and leisurely said: "Indeed! On such a good day, let’s talk about happy things! Tianyou, I heard your project with Mr. Chen’s company has started successfully, right?"

As Gu Ningyue spoke, she glanced at Gu Zheng.

The new project of Ye Family has been open for investment, but Gu Zheng probably knew this project was not viable, so he would rather put up fifty million for the dowry than get involved with it.

For this matter, Gu Family and Ye Family must have negotiated quite a bit.

Just looking at Gu Zheng’s expression, it’s clear Ye Family still wants to cooperate with Gu Zheng.

Ling Tianyou nodded, "However, recently we are short-handed, and the company wants to recruit some professionals in this area."

Gu Zheng looked at Ling Tianyou thoughtfully: "Nowadays, Mr. Chen rarely collaborates with others."

Could this project really be profitable?

Ling Tianyou responded, "Yes! Even if this project doesn’t go well, it won’t lose much money. If Chairman Gu is interested, you can talk to Mr. Chen. I have no issues on my side."

Ling Tianyou’s words suddenly brought a touch of joy to Gu Zheng: "Is this project still lacking partners?"

Ling Tianyou curved his mouth slightly: "Originally not lacking, but if it’s Chairman Gu, naturally it’s a different matter."

Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou calmly, well done, a slap and a sweet date - what a move.

These two discussed business, and the meal afterward was relatively calm.

When everything was almost discussed, Ling Tianyou stood up ready to take his leave.

Gu Ningyue followed suit: "I’ll see you out."

Ling Tianyou showed a gentle smile, completely different from the earlier cold smile that contained a hint of chill, like a spring breeze, pleasing to the eyes: "It’s rare that you learned well, let’s go!"

Gu Ningyue clinging to his arm, affectionately left the villa.

Behind them, Gu Wanwan and Gu Zheng watched this scene, their emotions varied.

"Sister, is Ling Tianyou crazy? Why is he treating Gu Ningyue, this lunatic, so well?"

"Food and lust are natural! With this face, what man can’t be enticed?"

"I think she’s just like that, Lu Qingqing is prettier!"

"Lu Qingqing? You’re still in contact with Lu Qingqing? Dad said, don’t play with fire and get burned!"

"Alright, sister, take care of your own affairs first, don’t worry about mine!"

"I’m doing this for your good, mom is still in the hospital, if you don’t..."

"Alright, alright, sister, you’re getting more and more annoying, Young Master Ye must be annoyed to death!"

"I don’t care if he is annoyed. Anyway, you must not contact Lu Qingqing again. I don’t want to clean up your messes anymore..."

"..."

Outside the villa, Ling Tianyou’s hand rested on Gu Ningyue’s shoulder.

Under the moonlight, the warm lips were captivating.

"Remember to miss me, okay?"

He slowly caressed her lips, his voice slightly hoarse.

Gu Ningyue leaned against the car door, one hand holding Ling Tianyou’s waist: "I know, don’t worry."

Ling Tianyou chuckled softly and heavily kissed her lips: "Then I’ll leave?"

Gu Ningyue nodded: "Okay, go back! Take care on the road."

Ling Tianyou replied, but his hand still reluctantly let go: "Wait..."

Gu Ningyue asked puzzled: "What is it?"

Ling Tianyou thought for a moment and said: "Why didn’t you fight back when you suffered so many grievances at the Gu Family?"

Although Ling Tianyou hadn’t personally seen Gu Ningyue skill, he was aware of it.

Could it be that after enduring such grievances, she was still enduring?

Gu Ningyue smiled, someone had asked this question before, so she was not flustered: "Before, I still had expectations for the word family. Now, I don’t anymore!"

Ling Tianyou reached out to rub her head: "That’s good."

Gu Ningyue smiled, "Alright, quickly go back! It’s very late."
