Chapter 200: Chapter 200: Thrilling! (4) Chapter 200: Chapter 200: Thrilling! (4) “Mr. Gu, we haven’t had a chance to meet since Japan.” Bai Lingyun said with a smile curling at the corners of his lips.
Gu Annan’s piercing gaze swept over him, “Where is she?”
Lu Wanwan’s heart nearly leaped into her throat.
Would Bai Lingyun betray her? Would he?
Seizing the moment, Xu Yuan quickly pulled out her phone and stepped away, “Hello, Wanwan, where are you? I can’t find you anywhere. Ah? You’ve already gone downstairs? Okay, I’ll be there soon.”
Gu Annan slightly raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
On his strikingly handsome face was an expression that was hard to read.
His cold gaze fell on Bai Lingyun, who finally spoke, “If you’re talking about Miss Lu… she already got what she wanted and left. She really ran fast, true to her job as a journalist.”
“Thanks,” Gu Annan had nothing more to say.
“You’re welcome. I’ve been quite popular lately, thanks to her too.”
Gu Annan’s thin lips curved into a cold smile, and he spoke lightly, “I’ll take that on her behalf.”
Bai Lingyun: “You’re really not polite.”
“Anyway, it won’t hurt you to be photographed.”
On the other side of the door, Lu Wanwan, who had been anxious, was stunned by Gu Annan’s words.
By the time she came back to her senses, it had already quieted down at the door.
When the door was twisted open again, she was startled.
“Shh!” Xu Yuan gestured for her to be quiet, “It wasn’t easy to ditch Shao Zhiheng, quickly come with me.”
The two of them bolted from the break room as soon as they were out.
“This elevator is for the audience of the live broadcast, it doesn’t go through our company’s channel and the exit isn’t the company’s main door.” Xu Yuan panted, “I won’t go down. After you leave through this door, find a place to ‘run into’ Gu Annan again.”
“Thanks,” Lu Wanwan said, clutching her chest.
“But speaking of which,” Xu Yuan said curiously, “Gu Annan didn’t seem to forbid you from taking photos.”
“It’s my job, of course he wouldn’t forbid it,” she wiped the sweat from her forehead, “But if I had come out of the room with Bai Lingyun, and my clothes were torn… imagine how many staff members in the hallway, who are attentive to Bai Lingyun, would turn this into a scandal for the Gu family.”
“So there’s all this fuss, it’s really troublesome.”
“The elevator’s here, bye!”
Lu Wanwan entered the elevator and pressed for the first floor.
She let out a long breath.
Fortunately, it was a close call; it was all caused by a lack of experience.
She absolutely must not be in a private room again, especially not when there are so many people around afterward.
“I forgot to take the photo!”
Lu Wanwan pinched her brow, regretting.
She was so startled that she forgot the main task.
A false alarm, and she had wasted all that time for nothing.
As she left the elevator, Lu Wanwan walked towards the road, pondering that Xu Yuan hadn’t mentioned Gu Annan in the fake phone call, so she should not know that Gu Annan was here.
Thinking this, she decided to hail a taxi to go back on her own.
A few minutes later, failing to hail a taxi, a sleek black Bentley slowly approached and stopped next to her.
The window was down, and the driver was Gu Annan.
Besides him, there was no one else in the car.
“What a coincidence…” Lu Wanwan said, ‘shocked’ as she looked at the man inside the car.
“Aren’t you getting in?” Gu Annan spoke faintly, his tone hard to decipher.
Taking a deep breath, she got into the car and was the first to speak, “How come you are here?”
“Pretending you didn’t know I was here?” Gu Annan didn’t look at her, his fingers hooked on the steering wheel as he quickly turned the car around.
