She quickly walked out of the locker room. Alice's surprised exclaim came from outside the door, obviously filled with happiness. "When did you come over?
"No, let's go!" Fu Yi's voice was still filled with magnetism.
Even without personally seeing it, Chu Mengyao could already imagine that scene. They smiled at each other and then snuggled close together as they left.
Chu Mengyao didn't know how she walked out of the locker room, but when she raised her head and saw Wu Haoran, he felt very tired and didn't want to talk.
Seeing her expression, Wu Haoran could not help but frown. He looked around the locker room and did not find any clues. Standing in the doorway, he could still hear a woman's voice in the locker room.
The two prepared to leave the clubhouse, so they would naturally pass through the main hall on their way out. Fu Yi and Alice were coincidentally sitting and chatting in the hall. When Chu Mengyao walked into the hall, she immediately saw Fu Yi seemingly saying something to him, and then, Alice started laughing.
Her heart aching, Chu Mengyao immediately retracted her gaze and walked to the door.
Just then, Wu Haoran put his hand on her shoulder, embraced her and walked out the door.
As he was driving back, Wu Haoran saw that Chu Mengyao was not in a good state, so he played the music. Listening to those passionate love songs, Chu Mengyao's mind was filled with the scene of Fu Yi and Alice together. He became more agitated and switched off the music.
"Don't you like it?" Wu Haoran raised his eyebrows in surprise, "I remember that you don't like this type of song?"
"It's a bit noisy." Chu Mengyao explained in an indifferent tone.
Wu Haoran did not say anything more, but after a while, he opened his mouth and asked, "Do you know President Fu from the KO Group?"
"I don't know him." Chu Mengyao answered very quickly, as if she was hiding something.
"His girlfriend is pretty pretty, she looks like a half-breed." Wu Haoran's expression looked very casual.
After that, Wu Haoran slightly smiled, and said with a light voice, "I never thought that President Fu would be so cold, and yet be so gentle and considerate towards the one you love. "You really didn't see how he passed water and towels to his girlfriend. It's really unexpected."
felt chills throughout his entire body, and did not want to hear another word about Fu Yi at all. He coldly spoke, "Are you very familiar with him? "Why do you always mention people you don't know?"
Hearing Chu Mengyao's displeasure, Wu Haoran did not get angry, and pulled her hand, "Then talk about us."
No one tried to pretend to be grateful to him, but Chu Mengyao shook off his hand.
"…" Wu Haoran didn't mind, he looked at Chu Mengyao with deep emotions, yet also looked wronged, "You've always been absent-minded today. What are you thinking about, can't you tell me? You are too repulsive to me, and my heart hurts. "
Seeing that Chu Mengyao did not have any intention to be moved, Wu Haoran probed, "Mengyao, do you know another man?"
"You worry too much. I'm just thinking about my job. "Because of you, all my work has been delayed today. I think I'll have to go back to work overtime later." Chu Mengyao found the most reasonable reason to explain her absent-mindedness.
Just then, Wu Haoran's phone rang, "I'm with Mengyao now, send her back to the company later … "What?"
His voice rose a little as he looked at Chu Mengyao with a troubled expression on his face, "Alright then, we'll be there in a bit."
After hanging up, Wu Haoran explained, "It was my father who called just now. He told us to go over and have dinner together. There will be a driver to pick up Aunt later. We have to discuss the engagement tonight. "
Hearing the word engagement, Chu Mengyao could not help but frown, "You suddenly announced the marriage ceremony, does your family know? To disagree or to agree? "
However, Wu Haoran smiled, "My parents haven't even had time to be happy, how can they object?" In reality, he did not understand why Wu Ruming insisted on cancelling the marriage between him and Chu Mengyao when there was a problem with the Chu's at first, but now, he suddenly changed his opinion of Chu Mengyao. Her evaluation of her was very good.
Wu Ruming chose the Drunken Immortal Tavern for this meeting, it was a famous restaurant in H City.
When they rushed to the hotel, Wu Haoran's parents were already there waiting.
"Uncle, Aunt, long time no see. Sorry for disturbing you." Chu Mengyao had a fitting smile on her face as she greeted politely.
Wu Ruming was not as cold as before, as he smiled and nodded at her.
Shen Baiqing had always liked Chu Mengyao so much. She pulled her hand and said with a face full of smiles, "I'm very happy to see the two of you walk together again."
Chu Mengyao didn't know what to say, and only felt awkward.
Fortunately, at this time, the driver had already sent Chu Zhiruo to the restaurant, and after she was pushed into the room by the waiter, Shen Baiqing started to enthusiastically chat with her.
Chu Mengyao immediately felt relieved.
"Recently, your Chu's has developed quite well. I never thought that Mengyao had such talent in business." Wu Ruming opened his mouth seemingly carelessly.
Chu Mengyao did not know how to respond to this, and could only smile.
Hearing that, Shen Baiqing rolled her eyes at her husband, "Women sure work hard doing this! How long has it been since we last saw Mengyao? She's lost so much weight already. "
After she finished speaking, Shen Baiqing looked at Chu Mengyao. "When the two of you get married, you can just be taken care of by Haoran himself. You're going to learn flower arranging from me and go to Paris to see a costume show if you have nothing else to do. That's the kind of life a woman should be living. "
Before Chu Mengyao could speak, Chu Zhiruo had already followed up, "After the marriage, we shall see what Mengyao's intentions are!"
Hearing that Chu Zhiruo was a little unhappy, Wu Ruming looked at him unhappily, "Young people nowadays cannot be compared to the past, there are not many who want to stay at home. It's better for Mengyao to go to work. "
"Why do you need to work so hard? After marriage, you should naturally have a child. Haoran is no longer young."
They would never get married if they pretended to be engaged for the sake of their aunt's body. But now, why did they even start to discuss the life after marriage? Looking at Wu Haoran, he realised that he was listening with interest.
His aunt, on the other hand, had an indifferent expression, clearly not interested in the topic at hand. Chu Mengyao sighed, hoping that his aunt's body would recover quickly. This way, she would be able to tell his aunt the truth, without having to work so hard for a lie.
Chu Mengyao took their conversation very rationally, and she didn't want to get involved.
Hearing that his wife's words were getting more and more outrageous, Wu Ruming's expression became even uglier, "What do you know?"
Shen Baiqing was furious at her husband for mercilessly reprimanding her, but she had no choice but to endure it. On one hand, she didn't want the party to end unfairly. On the other hand, she didn't want others to realize that her so-called blissful marriage was just an illusion.
"After marriage, it's better if I help you manage your Chu's. Haoran and Mengyao are too young and we should spend some time together. " Wu Ruming's tone was very normal.
"The current state of your Chu's isn't too good. Wouldn't it be too troublesome for you if this were to happen?" Chu Zhiruo said politely, but in her heart, she felt that this Wu Ruming had really planned something well, to actually want to take the opportunity to swallow her Chu's. The current situation with the Chu's was not good, but there was still a foundation. "Mengyao is young, and this way, we should train for a bit, and increase our experience."
However, Wu Ruming laughed, "We'll be family soon, there's no need for trouble. In the future, it would all be under the control of their young people. Sooner or later, these businesses will all belong to them, and Mengyao is going to help our family to grow leaves and branches, how can she work too hard? After marriage, you will still have to come to our Wu's to work. At that time, I can give the entire PR Department to her. With her ability, it definitely won't be a problem. "
Public Relations? Chu Zhiruo sneered inwardly, it really was a good department! Chu Zhiruo did not want to be entangled with this topic anymore, "Let's talk about it in the future, it's still a little early to talk about it now. The current situation with the Chu's is still not good, the billions of banks that are owed are still rushing us! "
"The swindler still hasn't been found?"
"That's right!"
Hearing Chu Zhiruo's reply, Shen Baiqing's expression became a bit ugly. She glanced at her husband, and her entire person was no longer as attentive as before.
"Zhiruo, Mengyao is still young. With such a heavy burden on her, it's too heavy for her. Have you ever considered switching hands with your Chu's? "
How could Chu Zhiruo be willing to sell her Chu's? This was something that the clan had painstakingly built up with great difficulty, and it was also something that she had worked hard for. Although they currently had huge debts, they had land, textile factories and other assets.
Thinking about it, Chu Zhiruo opened her mouth, "Let's take a look first!"
"The shopping mall changes very quickly. It might be worth over 100 million today, and tomorrow it will be devalued to a worthless level." Wu Ruming glanced at Chu Zhiruo.
"No matter how bad it is, it won't be worse than now. Let's take a look first." Although she understood the meaning behind Wu Ruming's words, Chu Zhiruo intentionally pretended to be sloppy, "Besides, Mengyao is currently discussing about cooperation with the Hua Mei Group, maybe this is the vitality of the Chu's?"
Hearing that, Wu Ruming looked at Chu Mengyao with praise in his eyes, "Mengyao did very well, she is quite capable!"
Chu Mengyao only laughed, and did not speak.
"Xiao Tian from the Hua Mei Group, what is your relationship with him?" Wu Ruming remembered that Chu Mengyao was sitting right next to him at the time. Although her Wu's had developed smoothly over the years, she still did not have the chance to sit at the main table in City H.
"I've only seen him twice, so I'm not very familiar with him." Chu Mengyao replied softly.
Wu Ruming did not pursue the matter further. Instead, he asked as if it was a casual manner, "Have you recently had any intentions of cooperating with the Hundred Great Guilds?"
How would he know? Chu Mengyao was a little puzzled, this was only a negotiation stage, and there was no contract yet, even at the Chu's, it was a secret, "Yes, we are currently discussing."
Wu Ruming slightly probed, "Are you very familiar with the KO President Fu? The last time I went to the party, I saw you guys in the hallway having a nice chat, "he said.
Corridor? At that time, she and Fu Yi were embracing and kissing. Did he see it? Chu Mengyao became wary, and at the same time, she felt extremely awkward.
