Mr. Gu's wife is a little naughty

"Since that's what you said, then let's just leave it at that." Long Haisheng no longer paid attention to the unsportsmanlike Lin Tao and turned to look at Jiang Lai. "I came here hastily today. I will definitely prepare a generous gift and go to the Tian family in person to apologize and ask for marriage someday."

Jiang Lai smiled gracefully again and nodded. Long Haisheng clasped his fists towards Tian Zhenyuan and Li Toyota who had spoken up for him, said goodbye, and left with his men.

It wasn't until Long Haisheng and the others disappeared from the hallway that Jiang Lai's expression slowly lost its deliberately maintained calmness, replaced by a deeper indifference. She let go of Tian Zhen and Yuan Hebo's hands, and her eyes involuntarily fell in the direction of Lin Tao and Tian Tian.

Seeing this, Tian Tian, ​​far from expressing any gratitude, unabashedly rolled her eyes in response, her gaze filled with unvarnished indifference and hostility, as if the very air was thick with unresolved grudges. Her reaction completely disregarded the subtle affection Jiang Lai had for not revealing the truth; all that remained was a cold confrontation and silent provocation.

Lin Tao appeared unusually calm, his large sunglasses like an invisible barrier, cleverly hiding all his emotions. As long as they couldn't see his expression, he could pretend to ignore any of their expressions and hatred.

After Jiang Lai rolled her eyes at them, she gave Tian Zhenyuan a meaningful look before leaving the venue with Tian Mengmeng. Tian Mengmeng originally had a little dissatisfaction with Tian Tian in her heart, and wanted to follow Jiang Lai's example and use the rolling eyes as a silent protest. However, when her eyes inadvertently swept across Tian Tian and the shadowy Lin Tao, an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart - was it guilt, fear, or a subtle mixture of the two, which made her instantly restrain all her edge. She lowered her head, tightened Jiang Lai's hand, and did not dare to make any more provocative moves, so she had to hurriedly follow Jiang Lai's pace and leave.

"Oh no! The show is over, there's nothing left to watch."

Lin Tao stretched his body leisurely, and after a long and contented stretch, he slowly stood up.

Hong Momo and Li Jingrui walked towards them with light steps.

"Why didn't I see you guys just now? It seems you were hiding here to watch the fun?"

There was a hint of teasing in Li Jingrui's words, and a cunning light flashed in his eyes. He looked at Lin Tao and Tian Tian with a smile on his lips.

Upon hearing this, Tian Tian immediately put on a pitiful look, smiled and took Li Jingrui's arm, shaking it gently, and said coquettishly, "How dare I! I was so scared just now, I'm just timid!"

Her voice was so soft, and her deliberately delicate posture made Li Jingrui laugh so hard that the smile in the corners of his eyes widened.

Hong Momo raised the corner of her mouth slightly, with a gentle smile, and gracefully stroked the air with her fingertips, pointing to Lin Tao behind her, her words full of gratitude, "Tonight, I really want to thank our Mr. Gu. He has been consulting with us for a long time just for your matter."

"Oh?" Tian heard this, a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes, and then she turned lightly, her eyes falling on Lin Tao curiously.

Seeing this, Lin Tao grinned naively, "I can't let anyone bully my little assistant."

"Boss, are you so nice?" Tian Tian winked playfully, raised the corners of her mouth and smiled mischievously at Lin Tao.

Lin Tao felt a little embarrassed by the stares and scratched his head innocently. "I was just expressing my thoughts, but the two ladies' superb acting skills really opened my eyes."

Several people laughed.

"Tian Tian, ​​can I have a few words with you?"

Tian Zhenyuan's voice rang out, and he slowly approached, his eyes intertwined with complex and unspeakable emotions, as if carrying thousands of words, but unable to speak them for a moment.

The smile on Tian Tian's face vanished instantly, replaced by a faint confusion and subtle determination. Her gaze lingered on Tian Zhenyuan for a moment, then quickly shifted away, her tone carrying a subtle hint of determination and distance.

"I have nothing to say to you."

"Tian Tian!"

"Let's go somewhere else! It's not fun drinking here." Tian Tian said to Li Jingrui and Hong Momo before Tian Zhenyuan finished speaking. "Would you please do me a favor and have a few drinks together?" Tian Tian turned to look at Lin Tao.

Hearing this, Lin Tao's gaze lingered on Tian Zhenyuan's slightly embarrassed figure, then quickly glanced at Tian Tian and her group. Finally, he sighed softly and declined politely.

"No, I have an appointment to discuss something tonight, you guys just go and have fun."

A trace of regret flashed across Tian Tian's face, a subtle hint of disappointment flickering across her eyes, but she quickly concealed it with an elegant smile. Her left hand naturally rested on Li Jingrui's shoulder, while her right hand gently held Hong Momo's arm. "Since someone isn't that lucky, let's go have some fun together, sisters."

However, no one noticed the slight hesitation on Hong Momo's face, which was quickly concealed by her smile.

"Tian Tian!" Tian Zhenyuan's voice unconsciously rose a few degrees, with a bit of urgency.

There was no change in Tian Tian's expression. She was still excited as she pulled her two best friends towards the door of the hall.

Tian Zhenyuan wanted to get up and chase after him, but his steps were gently stopped by Lin Tao in an instant.

"What do you mean?" Tian Zhenyuan frowned slightly, his eyes full of confusion.

Lin Tao smiled faintly, "Chairman Tian should know Tian Tian's temper. There is no need to rush this matter. There is still a long way to go!"

Tian Zhenyuan looked at Lin Tao carefully, his eyes showing curiosity and a hint of indescribable meaning.

"Then I wonder if I, Tian, ​​would be lucky enough to have a chat with Mr. Gu?"

Lin Tao looked around the hall, then shrugged slightly apologetically, "I'm sorry, Chairman Tian, ​​I have an appointment to discuss something, so I'm afraid I can only apologize tonight."

Tian Zhenyuan's face was filled with a smile again. "No problem. Didn't President Gu just say that? We have a lot of time to come!"

Lin Tao chuckled along.

As they walked out of the hall, a fresh evening breeze blew over, and the three girls closed their eyes comfortably, enjoying the smell of the free air.

"I won't be able to play with you guys later." Momo said softly to the two people beside her with a hint of barely perceptible regret in her voice.

When Tian Tian heard this, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes. She turned to look at Hong Momo, with a tone of confusion and concern, "Are you going to look for your fiancé Beichen?"

Jing Rui frowned slightly upon hearing this. She didn't seem to have much affection for the name Beichen. She opened her red lips slightly, revealing a hint of disdain in her words, "It's strange to say, what is so outstanding about Beichen that makes you miss him so much? He's just a playboy. Is he worthy of your love and affection?"

Hong Momo raised a bitter smile and sighed, "I'd like to go find him, but he might not want to see me right now. I have an appointment with someone else to discuss something, which was already scheduled before the banquet."

Tian Tian gently took her hand, her eyes full of pity, "Okay then, but no matter what happens, I believe the sisters will stand by you. If that Beichen really bullies you, just tell us, and I will definitely help you get rid of this evil."

Upon hearing this, Li Jingrui nodded firmly in agreement.

Hong Momo smiled and nodded to them, "Okay, have fun."

Li Jingrui's driver arrived at the gate. On the side of the car, Li Jingrui's driver, the handsome young man Lin Tao had casually mentioned to Tian Tian in the lobby, swiftly jumped out of the car, his movements revealing a sense of competence and grace. He quickly circled around to the back of the car, opened the door like a gentleman, and waited for the two beauties.

Tian Tian's eyes were instantly attracted by the driver, with a girl's unique light flashing in her eyes, and she couldn't help but exclaimed softly again

"Xiao Ruirui, your little brother is so handsome!"

Hearing this, Jingru shook her head helplessly and dotingly, patted Tian Tian's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, stop being such a nympho, let's get in the car and stop making fun of ourselves here."

Li Jingrui finished speaking and quickly pushed Tian Tian into the car, completely ignoring her subtle protests. As she was about to get in, her eyes inadvertently swept across the driver's face, a look that was intertwined with a hint of disgust and a touch of contempt.

The driver appeared unusually calm. He carefully closed the car door, then turned and gave Hong Momo, who stood quietly beside him, a warm smile. He then returned to the driver's seat. The car slowly started, eventually disappearing silently into the night, beyond the dim lights of the club.

Hong Momo remained calm throughout, watching these little episodes unfold until the end. After the car had gone into the distance, she slowly exhaled a long breath, and her gaze gently turned to the other side of the club.

After Beichen left, she had no intention of meeting Mr. Gu, but she couldn't bear to give up any small hope of helping Beichen, so she decided to meet Mr. Gu in person to see how he wanted to cooperate with Beichen.

After the three girls left the hall, Lin Tao did not stay for too long. After a brief conversation with Liu Liu, he went alone to the private room he had booked in advance. He expected that Beichen would not come, but Hong Momo would definitely come, and this was what he wanted.

Almost at the moment when Lin Tao entered the private room, Hong Momo knocked on the door. Facing the dangerously shy Hong Momo standing at the door, Lin Tao just smiled indifferently and then stepped aside to make way. Hong Momo only thought for a moment before stepping aside to walk into the private room.
