Chapter 274: Chapter 274 BOSS is Heartbroken (6) Chapter 274: Chapter 274 BOSS is Heartbroken (6) “Of course, this medicine doesn’t have to torture people; she didn’t intend to torture Gu Annan’s body, it’s just that Gu Annan chose self-torture.”
He spoke mysteriously, leaving Xu Yuan somewhat unclear.
But she could be sure of one thing–it was no legitimate medicine!
This green tea bitch really had the guts, actually giving Gu Annan an aphrodisiac!
“I heard that his head was busted open at the time, because the pain would keep him somewhat clear-headed.” Shao Zhiheng said somberly, “He ended up in the hospital for a night afterwards.”
“What happened afterward?” Lu Wanwan asked anxiously.
Shao Zhiheng smiled brightly, “How would I know, I wasn’t even in the country at the time.”
Lu Wanwan was silent for a long while, she didn’t know any of what Shao Zhiheng had just told her.
But she remembered the last time she saw Gu Annan, when she moved out of the Gu Mansion.
At that time his head was wrapped in gauze, she saw it, but didn’t even ask a word.
“Xu Yuan, you mustn’t tell Lu Wanwan about this matter.” Shao Zhiheng advised earnestly, “Because someone has forbidden it.”
“Why forbid it? Isn’t it sick not to clear up something ?”
He gently raised his eyebrows, pondering, “Based on my understanding of him, it’s probably because he is too proud. He’s never been one to waste words on explanations… Alright, actually, who knows what he is thinking. It could also be that he was irritated by all the overwhelming rumors.”
He really didn’t understand, Lu Wanwan’s jealousy clearly showed that she cared about him, so why didn’t Gu Annan explain, just calling off the engagement like that?
It didn’t make sense, the only possibility was that there must be some other misunderstanding.
Lu Wanwan let go of her wine glass and got off the stool, “I have something else to take care of, let’s talk another time, goodbye.”
After going outside and catching a breath of fresh air, she felt a bit more clear-headed, with an indescribable mix of emotions in her heart.
How could things have come to this?
She had misunderstood, but it took her so long to find out the truth.
After saying so many angry words that day, she hadn’t seen Gu Annan since then.
Throughout the past half-month, not a day had gone by when she didn’t feel down; she had been listless and lacked the will to do anything, while constantly telling herself that her decision was the right one.
But what should she do now?
In the distance, a black sedan parked, with half of the passenger side window rolled down. The man watched her forlorn figure for a good while before he walked toward the subway station.
“Boss Gu.” Zhao Chen hesitated, “Boss Shao didn’t have you come just to see Miss Lu’s retreating figure, did he? It’s quite unsafe at this hour, should I go and call her back?”
“No need,” two cold words came from beside him.
But Boss, you specifically took a detour here, don’t say you didn’t know beforehand that Miss Lu would be here, don’t say you came because of Boss Shao!
“Miss Lu’s solitary figure looks a bit pathetic. I heard that November 11th is some kind of Singles’ Day, which is fast approaching. I wonder if Miss Lu will be ‘celebrating’ this festival.”
Gu Annan turned his head to look at his ceaselessly chattering assistant.
“Cough, just rambling, Boss Gu.”
A moment later, watching until Lu Wanwan had completely left, Gu Annan rolled up the car window, “Let’s go.”
Driving away with a sense of loss, Zhao Chen really missed the days when Miss Lu was around Boss Gu. Lately, the whole company had been groaning under a heavy workload that seemed endless, probably no one knew it was because the Boss was heartbroken.
“How are the arrangements you were told to make coming along?”
“Almost ready, several major projects are nearing completion with the relentless overtime work recently. Mr. Arthur should be here in about a week to take over the duties from you, Boss Gu.”
