After the first round of probing attacks ended, Zheng Yuan evidently did not get the desired result. Her evaluation of Wu Yuexi, from start to finish, was always confused or uncertain, but she was certain of one thing, that Wu Yuexi seemed to be secretly being controlled and led by Gu Shaoqiang by her side the entire time. Even with regards to the handling of the cheque, Wu Yuexi had already raised her head several times, hoping to receive clear instructions from him.

He had felt the same way before, but it was something that happened a long time ago. The things changed, the heart he relied on didn't change, and the person he relied on didn't even know where he was …

Zheng Yuan's gaze now casually fell on Wu Yuexi's face. Other than more sweat, her lips which had already turned red due to the spiciness, and her helplessness from sucking in a large mouthful of cold air, Wu Yuexi had basically not changed at all. Even when they looked eye to eye, there was not the slightest hint of timidness or guilt.

"We seem to have met the Miss Wu somewhere before, right?"

Zheng Yuan asked somewhat suspiciously.

"Of course Miss Zheng has seen me. I'm still your junior, but I haven't contacted her for so long after graduation. I'm afraid Miss Zheng doesn't remember that we acted together in Germany."

Wu Yuexi was probably feeling much better after drinking a little bit of alcohol and the cheque of $3 million that was in her bag.

Zheng Yuan looked at Wu Yuexi, as if she remembered something, and finally laughed.

"I remember, I remember. I was wondering why it looked so familiar, so it was a school friend."

Wu Yuexi had already changed the topic too far, if she wanted to come back to the topic, she would have to spend a lot of effort. Gu Shaoqiang put down his chopsticks, smiled and said to Zheng Yuan.

"Your esteemed head, Tifan Group's Chairman Wu Haotian, has always wanted to pay a visit to Chairman Zheng. This time, we will never get to know each other without a fight. Furthermore, the two of you are alumni, I wonder if Miss Zheng can arrange something for us."

Zheng Yuan's gaze suddenly fell upon Gu Shaoqiang's face as he said this with a strange smile.

"My dad's health hasn't been too good recently, the company's business has always been represented by my brother and me. If Chairman Wu has any cooperation matters to discuss, you can discuss it with me directly."

"I'll discuss it with you directly … "Hur hur, alright."

Gu Shaoqiang laughed helplessly and said softly.

Zheng Yuan pursed her lips and laughed, her legs crossed as she looked at Gu Shaoqiang with suspicion.

"Then where might the Mr. Gu be located at?"

"It's hard to say if he is, but he works under the Tifan Group's jurisdiction."

Gu Shaoqiang knew that if he did not quickly tell Zheng Yuan what he wanted to know, this meal would go on endlessly.

Zheng Yuan suddenly laughed and looked at Gu Shaoqiang seriously.

"Gu Shaoqiang... Good name! Come to think of it, it's a coincidence, I have an old friend with the same surname as Mr. Gu! "

"Oh!" "Such a coincidence! I wonder where Miss Fang's old friend is right now?"

Gu Shaoqiang asked casually while picking the chicken, he was not surprised at all.

Zheng Yuan still looked at Gu Shaoqiang blankly, and her voice became powerless.

"..." I don't know where he is right now, but I'll wait for him to come back! "

Gu Shaoqiang's heartstrings had inexplicably been pulled, and even the chopsticks in his hand had paused on top of the chosen chicken for a long time. He couldn't be more familiar with such emotions, this tone of voice, even if it was so distant and unfamiliar now that he recalled it.

The furthest distance in the world is not between life and death. It is when I am right in front of you, yet you cannot see me …

This sentence was something that Gu Shaoqiang thought to be forced and uncultured in the past, but now that it was interpreted so clearly and thoroughly, he suddenly did not know what kind of emotion or method he should use to face this woman who had betrayed him.

Women seemed to be very sensitive towards emotional matters. A dull woman like Wu Yuexi seemed to have become more intelligent.

"Since you love him so much, why didn't you go look for him? If I had someone I love, I would definitely let him know …"

When he said his last sentence, Wu Yuexi's voice had obviously become very soft. Out of the corner of his eye, he secretly glanced at Gu Shaoqiang, but he still didn't understand why he would have such a strange thought towards this man.

Zheng Yuan retracted her gaze from Gu Shaoqiang's hand. After drinking the wine in her cup, she stood up and laughed.

"So what if I find him? If I had a choice, I would rather keep my feelings to myself than to be so close to him …" Alright, since I don't want to disturb the two of you, I have some matters to attend to. I will be taking my leave first.

Only now did he realize that he actually wasn't very good at disguising himself. At least in front of Zheng Yuan, he was very capable of being calm and collected.

When Wu Yuexi stood up, she originally wanted to struggle free from Gu Shaoqiang's grasp, but it felt weird holding onto his hand for a while. However, Gu Shaoqiang's forceful hand that was like an iron pincer didn't move at all, after struggling for a while, Wu Yuexi could only helplessly give up. Gu Shaoqiang suddenly picked up a tissue on the table, at this time, he should have politely shook hands with Zheng Yuan and said his goodbyes.

At such a close distance, Gu Shaoqiang could not take his eyes off Wu Yuexi. His gentle smile and handsome and mature face suddenly stunned Wu Yuexi, and he recalled that night when Gu Shaoqiang also kissed him at such a distance, but now … Restaurant in broad daylight... This man wouldn't do the same thing again, right?

When she thought about it, Wu Yuexi subconsciously took a step back. However, Gu Shaoqiang had already raised his hand to wipe the corner of her mouth, and said gently.

"Look at you …" How old are you? You can even make food all over the place, don't move! I'll wipe it clean for you! "

At this moment, Gu Shaoqiang's eyes could only see himself, this was how Wu Yuexi understood things, in fact, it was true, she had never seen a man so focused on a woman, so deep and careful, so much so that even after Zheng Yuan laughed lightly, she still turned to leave, but Gu Shaoqiang did not see him, maybe he did not want to see him at all.

Only after Zheng Yuan's back figure disappeared at the door, did Gu Shaoqiang slowly lower his hands and frantically search for a cigarette. It was just like his current state of mind, and it was actually hard for him to calm down.

"You know her!"

The cigarette at the corner of Gu Shaoqiang's mouth fell to the ground.

"I... "Of course I know her. She's the young miss of the Zheng Family's Venture Capital Corporation, how many people don't know about her?"

Gu Shaoqiang took out another cigarette and laughed.

"NO!" You knew her before, and you know her well! "

Wu Yuexi lifted her head and looked at Gu Shaoqiang calmly.

After taking a deep breath, Gu Shaoqiang took an excuse to button his collar. It looked like he had underestimated Wu Yuexi.

"Why are you so sure I know her well?"

Gu Shaoqiang lit up his cigarette and asked without much confidence.

"Sixth Sense!" This was a woman's natural sixth sense! Don't say that you don't have any scientific basis, but you are indeed very practical. I can feel that the relationship between you and her is very special, as if you are purposely provoking and injuring her today … And you're still using me to do that, you... Did you love her before? "

It was difficult for Wu Yuexi's current appearance to be associated with the stupid woman in her memory. It seemed that when it came to emotional matters, women were naturally more sensitive than men.

Gu Shaoqiang caressed his chin and laughed casually, attempting to conceal the panic in his heart. After all, if others were to discover the truth in his heart, it would not be an easy matter.

"Why do I feel sore listening to you? Do you think you will feel uncomfortable if I were to be a little flirtatious with other women?"

Wu Yuexi was most afraid that it would be this kind of evil smile and disapproving expression from Gu Shaoqiang. Towards this kind of action, she didn't seem to have any ideas, so she didn't say anything for a long time with her mouth open. She did think a lot about rebuttal, but under this man's aggressive gaze, she couldn't say a single word.
