Chapter 184: Chapter 184 He Just Wanted to Taste the Medicine in Her Mouth (4) Chapter 184: Chapter 184 He Just Wanted to Taste the Medicine in Her Mouth (4) “He just wants to take advantage of me!” Xu Yuan slammed her finger down on the table, furiously accusing.
As soon as she finished speaking, the waiter serving the dishes and several people at a nearby table all looked her way simultaneously.
At another table near them, hidden by a screen,
The man who had just sat down reacted to the sentence he had just heard and was fuming!
The handsome man sitting opposite him immediately gave a slightly disdainful look.
The man rendered speechless by anger was none other than Shao Zhixing. His hands, which he had placed on the table, quickly clenched into fists, and his expression twisted as he gritted his teeth fiercely and lowered his voice, “This despicable woman…”
“Sir, here is the menu.” The waiter came over with the menu, trembling a bit in his voice after seeing the expression on Shao Zhixing’s face.
Their restaurant having two stunningly good-looking men was originally a good thing, but it seemed their tempers were quite bad.
Initially, he thought the aloof one would be the hardest to talk to, but this one looked murderous at a glance.
No matter how attractive the appearance, it was chilling to the core.
“No need, go away!” Shao Zhixing still lowered his voice, though there was some distance and the restaurant had music playing; he still didn’t want to risk being noticed.
Him, the true heir to a conglomerate, secretly coming to listen to two women chatting and venting?
“Hold on.” Gu Annan, who had been dragged here reluctantly, took the menu and started looking at it seriously.
“You’re still in the mood to look at the menu?” Shao Zhixing’s face turned pale.
Gu Annan’s cold, handsome face now showed a hint of amusement, his thin lips slightly curved, “Yes.”
Right, the one without mood was him, Shao Zhixing.
What did Gu Annan care, Lu Wanwan hadn’t called him a jerk.
The reason he had insisted on bringing him to dinner was so that if he had to show up, he could at least make it clear he wasn’t there intentionally to follow Xu Yuan, but was having dinner with a friend and happened to bump into her.
Choosing Gu Annan as the person was quite scheming, as his other buddies wouldn’t have this kind of leisure.
Of course, Gu Annan was even less inclined to leisure, but luckily, Xu Yuan had asked to meet Lu Wanwan.
The voices of the two women, oblivious to others, continued to emanate from behind the screen.
“Is it that horrible? This is the first time I’m actually relieved that my editor-in-chief is a woman. Actually, I always hoped that my boss would be a good-looking guy with a nice personality, how fun work would be every day.”
Gu Annan’s hand, which was flipping through the menu, paused, and his expression darkened.
‘But Xu Yuan, you’re not someone who can be easily taken advantage of, right?”
“Ah, you don’t understand. He’s not bad either. Of course, the main point is that he’s the BOSS, and I can’t go too hard on him—I still want my salary…”
Upon hearing ‘he’s not bad’, Shao Zhixing couldn’t help but smug a little.
The reason behind it made him irate again.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore, anyway, it’s really annoying; society is so dark.”
Shao Zhixing almost crushed the teacup!
Complaining about how dark society is when you’re pulling in three times the bonus others get? Who’s the real piece of work here?
“Let’s talk about you, how does it feel to be Gu Annan’s fiancée?” Xu Yuan got excited.
Lu Wanwan didn’t respond immediately, seemingly pondering.
This silence left the usually calm and composed Gu Annan without turning a page of the menu for a long while.
After a long pause, the voice came through, “How to put this… I can only sum it up in one sentence, my fiancé is such a jerk!”
Shao Zhixing couldn’t help but burst out laughing loudly, only to be glared back into silence by Gu Annan’s icy stare.
Before he had finished laughing, he heard Xu Yuan’s follow-up question, “A jerk in bed, or a jerk out of bed?”
