“You may leave first. ” He paused for a moment, his eyes still deep. “I promise you, alright? ”

“Alright. ” Gu Ruochu felt much more at ease after getting the answer she wanted.

However, as long as she got even a little closer to him, he would back away.

This look of wanting to avoid him did not make her lose heart. Instead, it made her feel more and more like she wanted to conquer him.

As long as he could spare some time to accompany her, she would actually be satisfied.

“Actually, I can accompany you to eat. ”

“Do you think that I want you to accompany me to eat? ” His tone sounded very cold. He seemed to be a little irritated as he pulled his tie off. He then tugged at his tie, “Gu Ruochu, don’t push your luck. ”

Even he himself did not understand why he had agreed to accompany her for a day. He clearly knew that she had ulterior motives and she had already crossed his bottom line.

However, he was actually able to endure it and did not push her away.

He felt a little uneasy as he grew more and more unfamiliar with himself.

The air-conditioner was very suitable for the temperature of the room but for some reason, there was an irreconcilable temperature.

He gritted his teeth as he said this, but Gu Ruochu was not afraid at all.

She had been like this when she first met him.

Now, she actually found it quite interesting.

Stuffy.

It was as if something was suppressing him, wanting to break free from some restrictions.

Everything had originated from this woman who had provoked him in front of him.

“I should think about it. ”

He was suddenly amused by these words, but he did not have much of a reaction or expression. “You should go back first. I’ll call you when I’m free. ”

“Who knows when you’ll be free and when you’ll call me? ”

“Very soon, ” he said patiently. Thinking of how much more tolerant he was towards her, he turned around. “Isn’t your movie starting shooting in three days? I’ll call you on this day. ”

“You said it. ”

Gu Ruochu was finally at ease now that she had received the confirmation date.

She smiled and stepped forward. “Then I’ll wait for President Huo’s call. Don’t make me wait too long. ”

Gu Ruochu was very close to her at some point. Her breath was almost on the back of his ears, but he could clearly sense it. “Is that right? ”

Someone’s heartbeat suddenly became erratic. Gu Ruochu took a few steps back when her fingertips touched his shirt and returned to her desk and chair.

“You may leave. ”

The male secretary finally appeared at an appropriate moment and politely extended his hand, “Miss Gu, I’ll escort you out. ”

“Alright. ”

Gu Ruochu stopped teasing him. For some reason, she felt amused when she saw Huo Nanchen’s back facing her.

They had a date in three days. She wondered if she should use a simple and crude method to make him take responsibility for her?

After all, he still seemed to have a good impression of her.

With this condition, perhaps it could work?

Gu Ruochu thought about it and considered whether she should try this method.

After leaving his office, she thought that it would not be too late to go to the bathroom first.

Her mood was much better today.

After the male secretary sent her off, he returned to his office and saw that Huo Nanchen was still standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He replied, “BOSS, Miss Gu has left. ”

When he saw the scene outside, he really thought that Huo Shao was going to make a move on Miss Gu.

After all, Huo Shao was not a man with a good temper.

There was a scene where Huo Shao lost his temper. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have walked over and looked like he was going to strangle someone to death. Fortunately, he mediated later.
