The next day.
Xu Wan came to the front desk of Gu’s head office and took the food delivered by the old house’s driver.
"Mrs. Gu, I'll show you the way." The receptionist naturally knew Xu Wan and said enthusiastically.
"Thank you for the trouble." Xu Wan nodded slightly.
I saw that all the employees in the company were in a hurry, as if something was following them.
Xu Wan came to the door of Gu Huaizhi's office and knocked on the door.
"Come in." A familiar male voice came from inside.
Xu Wan pushed open the door and walked in quietly.
Gu Huaizhi was sitting at his desk, processing documents with his head down, without looking up at her.
Xu Wan walked in carrying a lunch box.
Hearing footsteps that were different from Lin Shu's, Gu Huaizhi looked up, his expression paused slightly, then lowered his head and continued to read the documents as if nothing had happened.
"Why are you here?" he asked coldly.
"It's time for lunch. I'll bring you food!" Xu Wan raised the thermos box in his hand.
"Lin Shu will naturally arrange my lunch, so you don't have to worry about it."
Xu Wan: “…” In fact, she didn’t do it voluntarily.
"Is that so? Then I'll leave?" Xu Wan said as he was about to walk out.
"Wait!" Unexpectedly, she left as soon as she said so. Gu Huaizhi looked up and called her.
"Hmm?" Xu Wan turned and looked at him with raised eyebrows.
He just stood up with a solemn look and walked towards the rest area, "Eat."
Xu Wan curled his lips, followed him, put the thermal box on the table, and laid out the dishes one by one.
Looking at the familiar dishes, Gu Huaizi looked at Xu Wan inquiringly, "What is this?"
"This was prepared and sent over from the old house's kitchen. For the next period of time, I will come to supervise you to eat well." Seeing that he had no idea about this matter from the beginning, Xu Wan explained.
"Oh." He responded, his tone becoming much colder.
It turned out that it was her grandmother who asked her to come.
Xu Wan picked up the chopsticks and started eating, while observing Gu Huaizhi. He saw that he was just eating, occasionally taking a bite of meat and vegetables.
"Don't just eat! Is the food not to your taste? I'll ask them to cook whatever you want."
Gu Huaizhi raised his eyes to look at her, "No, I just don't have much appetite."
"You have no appetite at such a young age? That won't do. You should eat more of this meat!" Xu Wan said as he picked up several pieces of braised pork for him.
"You should eat more of this dish as well." Xu Wan continued to serve him some food.
Xu Wan didn't stop until the meat and vegetables in Gu Huaizhi's bowl had overflowed.
She looked at the man expectantly, "Eat!"
The man looked at her, and the coldness in his eyes faded a lot. "You eat too."
"Okay, okay, I'll eat too." Xu Wan lowered his head and continued eating.
As expected, the food is cooked by the chef in the old house. It’s so delicious. Xu Wan puffed up her cheeks and felt so happy.
"Mr. Gu, there are some details we need to discuss here." A high-pitched female voice sounded.
A woman in professional attire pushed open the door and walked in, exuding a noble and elegant demeanor.
When Yao Ruoshui saw the two people eating, his expression paused.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were having lunch. I was thinking of inviting you to lunch and discussing the details of the project." She apologized quickly, a little embarrassed.
"It's lunch time now, go eat first." Gu Huaizhi said calmly.
"Okay, then I'll come over in the afternoon." Yao Ruoshui nodded generously.
But before leaving, his scrutinizing eyes couldn't help but fall on Xu Wan.
Xu Wan also responded with a scrutinizing look.
Gu Huaizhi looked at her and couldn't help but say, "The company recently took on a holiday island project, and she is the project director."
"Yeah, it's good." Xu Wan nodded indifferently.
Although they were in a cooperative relationship, the fact that she pushed the door open without knocking proved that she often did this. Gu Huaizhi didn't care and even invited him to dinner, which showed that the situation just now was very common for them.
In other words, if she hadn't come today, Gu Huaizhi should be having dinner with her and discussing the project details together.
For some reason, Xu Wan felt inexplicably unhappy.
She took the chopsticks, poked the last piece of braised pork hard, and put it into her mouth.
"I'm so sorry for disturbing you and others from having dinner." Xu Wan said with a wry smile, and there was no apology in his words.
"No, I didn't intend to agree to it." Gu Huaizhi said lightly.
"Oh." Xu Wan picked up the water beside him and took a sip.
Gu Huaizhi looked at her, and the gloom in his heart for the past two days finally faded a little.
"How's your company going?" he asked.
“We just started working, so it’s a bit busy, but the situation is pretty good.”
"Well, you didn't run into any trouble?"
"currently there is not."
"If you need help, come to me anytime."
"it is good."
Only then did Xu Wan realize that Gu Huaizhi, who was usually taciturn, had said so much at once, and his bowl was not even empty.
"Stop talking for now and eat your meal! Don't accuse me of affecting your work!" Xu Wan urged.
"Yeah." He responded indifferently, and finally under Xu Wan's supervision, he finished his meal.
Xu Wan looked at the empty thermal box and nodded with satisfaction. He was very satisfied with this achievement.
"I'll come again tomorrow. I'm going back to the company first." Xu Wan stood up and said.
"I'll take you there." Gu Huaizhi also stood up.
"No need. It only takes half an hour by subway and we can get there directly." Xu Wan said.
"Subway? Where's your car?" He was a little surprised.
"How much does it cost to drive? The subway is only two dollars, and there's no parking fee!" Xu Wan said immediately.
This is downtown! She can't afford the parking fee.
"I'll take you there." Gu Huaizhi was choked by her, but still insisted.
"Then let's go." Xu Wan did not refuse.
Gu Huaizhi and Xu Wan walked out side by side, attracting a lot of attention and whispers from people.
The woman had a slim figure, and beside her was a burly man who was half a head taller than her. They looked a perfect match walking together.
"That's Xu Wan, right? She looks better in person than in her live broadcast!"
"Wow! Do you think Mr. Gu's features seem to have softened a lot?"
"Really? I hope it's not an illusion. These past two days have been really horrible!"
"Could it be that Mr. Gu's bad mood is due to Mrs. Gu?"
"Mrs. Gu rarely comes to the company. She's so beautiful!"
……
Xu Wan heard a lot of compliments from people and was in a very good mood.
As soon as I arrived at the company gate on the first floor, I met Yao Ruoshui.
"Have you finished eating?" She came up to me with a smile. "You are Mrs. Gu, right? Nice to meet you. My name is Yao Ruoshui, and I'm the project director of Anxin Real Estate."
"Hello." Xu Wan smiled and shook her hand back.
"Mrs. Gu, please take care. I need Mr. Gu's help. I have some urgent things to offer." Yao Ruoshui said with a smile.
