Hearing Xiang Yinghao's question, Gu Tong finally reacted. Her actions just now had been too emotional. Immediately, her face turned red from embarrassment.

However, she did not explain any further. Instead, she took the chance and said, "I think this dessert is very delicious. I want to have another serving. Do you want it?"

"No need, I already have enough. Eat it yourself."

Xiang Yinghao politely rejected Gu Tong's suggestion, before calling over the waiter to help her order the dishes.

Gu Tong just sat there in a daze, waiting for Xiang Yinghao to order and the waiter to send her the dishes.

After the dessert was served, he continued to eat it with his spoon without taking a single bite. He was still paying close attention to the movements of Si Yicheng.

Finally, just as Gu Tong thought she was about to vomit, she saw Si Yicheng stand up and walk towards her direction, which was the direction of the door.

Perhaps it was because she felt uncomfortable in her heart, but she wanted to purposely brush away her feelings of existence. The moment she saw Si Yicheng stand up, Gu Tong quickly stood up from her chair and said to Xiang Yinghao, "Director Xiang, I've finished eating. Please send me back!"

"Alright!"

Xiang Yinghao did not say anything else, simply replying as he stood up right after.

The two of them immediately walked toward the door, shoulder to shoulder.

Actually, when she first came in, the two of them had been walking back and forth just to avoid any suspicion. Now that Si Yicheng was here, Gu Tong felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. That was why she had purposefully left with Xiang Yinghao.

"Director Xiang, do you still remember where I live?" It's where you sent me last time. Last time I got you to send me off, and now you're sending me off again. I'm really sorry. "

As they walked, Gu Tong purposely spoke loudly. She had heard a person's footsteps getting closer and closer behind her. Furthermore, the footsteps were getting closer and closer.

"You're too polite. It's my honor to be able to send a beauty like you home. If you're willing, I can send you home everyday …"

"There's no need to trouble yourself. I'll take care of my people myself."

Before Xiang Yinghao had finished speaking, Gu Tong's long-awaited voice finally rang out. At the same time, Gu Tong felt a familiar scent enveloping her.

She immediately turned her head to look at Si Yichen's expression, wanting to see if he was truly nervous or not. However, the first thing she saw was Lin Anya who was behind him.

"Gu Tong, who is this?"

Xiang Yinghao looked suspiciously at Si Yicheng, curiously asking Gu Tong.

"Her fiancé."

Before Gu Tong could say anything, Si Yichen impatiently introduced himself. His tone was full of pride and boasting, as if he were a child showing off his toys.

Hearing this, Xiang Yinghao smiled faintly, "And here I always thought that you were a single girl!" Now that you have such a good fiance, I can finally relax a bit. There's someone by your side to protect you. "

Xiang Yinghao's calmness and magnanimity instantly reduced the childish Si Yichen to slag.

Feeling the threat, Si Yicheng immediately turned even more unfriendly towards Xiang Yinghao and said, "I will naturally protect my fiancée. It's not the place for outsiders to worry about her."

"Enough!"

Si Yicheng's provocative words finally pushed Gu Tong to the limit of her endurance. Gu Tong struggled free from his grasp and shouted at him.

Even if this wasn't enough, Gu Tong still looked up and asked Si Yicheng in dissatisfaction, "What are you doing? I'm just having a meal with a friend. They're just asking you for your identity. Don't you think it's too much, too childish? "

"I'm being excessive? I'm childish? " Si Yicheng asked in disbelief. Then, he felt very innocent as he explained, "I saw that this fellow had ill intentions towards you, that's why …"

"Bad intentions? How do you know he's up to no good? Do you know who he is? Do you know what kind of relationship they have with me? That's how you talk about people? "

"Besides, if you really want to say that you have ill intentions, no one can compare to the person beside you, right? Her intentions towards you are well-known! "

Gu Tong had always had a problem with the presence of Lin Anya and Si Yicheng here. Now that Si Yicheng was not making a ruckus without reason, she became a little angry and couldn't help but point at Lin Anya and ridicule her.

Lin Anya, who hadn't spoken for a long time, unexpectedly explained anxiously to Gu Tong's taunts, "Gu Tong, you've misunderstood me. Director Si and I are here today just to discuss work."

After hearing that Gu Tong had misunderstood Lin Anya and himself, Si Yicheng quickly followed up with an explanation, "That's right, the two of us didn't do anything shameful. We were really just discussing work."

"Work?" Gu Tong snorted and pointed at the restaurant, "There's a proper job to talk about, why not a quiet company that wants to come to this kind of crowded restaurant? It's confidential enough. Or is it that the atmosphere is so good that the two of you can take the opportunity to cultivate your relationship? "

"Also, weren't you two the most hostile people in the past? Why did you suddenly say the same words with such tacit understanding?

As she thought of how Si Yichen had agreed with Lin Anya, Gu Tong felt her heart clogging up.

He had clearly disliked Lin Anya in the past, so why would he suddenly be able to eat with her?

Why did he suddenly vent his anger on her?

Could it be that they would fall in love in two days?

Gu Tong deeply sized up Si Yicheng. She suddenly felt that he was a bit unfamiliar. She felt a burst of bitterness in her heart.

Si Yichen was somewhat panicked by her gaze. Therefore, he raised his hand, wanting to grab hold of her and give her a proper explanation.

However, just as he raised his hand, Gu Tong dodged him by taking two steps back.

His heart grew increasingly flustered. Once again, he moved closer towards Gu Tong. This time, Xiang Yinghao had suddenly appeared and blocked his path.

He immediately ordered with a darkened face, "Get out of the way!"

Facing his fury, Xiang Yinghao persuaded him neither angry nor angry, "Mister, Gu Tong is currently in a very bad mood and doesn't want you to get close to her. Just let her calm down for a while." When she calms down, the two of you can have a good chat. "

His kind words of advice annoyed Si Yicheng to the core, so he shouted even more impolitely, "Scram!"

"You're too much, too barbaric. I don't want to see you."

Gu Tong was thoroughly disappointed by this Si Yichen. She shouted at him, turned around, and ran away without looking back.

"Little Tong —"

Si Yichen shouted, wanting to chase after her. However, with Xiang Yinghao blocking his way, he could only helplessly watch as Gu Tong left.

If not for Gu Tong's previous words of protecting Xiang Yinghao, he would have knocked Xiang Yinghao down a long time ago.
