39: Chapter 40 You Kissed (4)
Huangfu Jue gave a light nod.
Despite having met Qiao Liang only once, his keen observation skills and experience in dealing with people told him that this man was no simple character.
Being a man himself, he understood men, and from the way Qiao Liang looked at Gan Yuan, Huangfu Jue knew that this man had ulterior motives towards her.
He had never been in love, nor pursued anyone.
However, the saying that love is like a battlefield could be found both in books and movies.
“The Art of War” states, know thyself, know thy enemy, and you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles.
Since it was a battlefield, it was of course necessary to understand how many enemies he was competing with and who they were.
The assistant continued, “Regarding Gan Tang, I couldn’t find much other information.
His teachers say he is very talented, especially at drawing.”
Huangfu Jue pressed on, “What about Gan Yuan?”
“She joined the company a year and a half ago, initially hired as a customer service representative; it only took her a year to rise to the position of guest room director.
Li about her, and he said she has a strong work capacity.
In the hotel, she doesn’t seem to have any particularly close friends, other than Qiao Liang, and it seems she has no other suitors.”
Huangfu Jue, passing his empty cup to him, lifted his hands to support himself on the railing.
“Book a flight and hotel for three days from now, and cancel all engagements within the next ten days.
prepare a gift to be sent to her office first thing tomorrow morning.”
Holding the cup, the assistant stood still, “Duke, what gift should I prepare?”
As this was the first time their master was pursuing a woman, the assistant naturally didn’t dare to show any neglect.
One question left Huangfu Jue at a loss for words.
This was also a first for him, naturally he had no concept of it, as his life experience revolved more around rejection.
“How about a bouquet of flowers?” the assistant suggested.
Several suggestions from the assistant were ruthlessly rejected by him.
“Forget it,” he raised his hand to stop the assistant’s next suggestion, “I’ll tell you tomorrow morning.”
Morning arrived as scheduled, and the mother and son had a simple breakfast before descending the stairs one after the other.
Seeing the backpack slung over the little one’s shoulders, Gan Yuan immediately remembered the drawing she had hidden under her pillow and the children’s book.
After descending the stairs and getting into the car, she started the engine while casually striking up a conversation.
“My son is getting more handsome, more and more…
Mentioning his father, the little guy’s eyes immediately lit up.
“Do I really look like Dad?”
“Of course,” Gan Yuan glanced at the rearview mirror, noting the black sedan following at a close distance, “he was tall, handsome, with a great figure…
He had such strength that he could lift you high with just one hand…”
“What color is his hair?” Gan Tang asked excitedly.
“Hair…” Gan Yuan bit her lip, “just like yours, of course.”
“The eyes…” The image of Huangfu Jue’s sea-blue eyes flashed before her; she couldn’t bear to lie to her son anymore, “They’re blue, the most beautiful kind of blue.
Under the sunlight, they are brighter than the sky, and at night, they’re as profound as the deep sea…”
“Just like Uncle Huangfu’s?”
Gan Yuan took a deep breath, “No, even more beautiful than his.”
“Is he as tall as Uncle Huangfu?”
“Is he as handsome as Uncle Huangfu?”
“Even more handsome!”
what about his personality?
Is he like Uncle Qiao, or like Uncle Huangfu?”
