Chapter 363: Chapter 363 Overbearing Female CEO VS Commoner Xiao Baihua (14) Chapter 363: Chapter 363 Overbearing Female CEO VS Commoner Xiao Baihua (14) After this banquet at the Xia Family’s, gossip about Fourth Master Xia and the president of Long’s, Long Tianruo, began to spread throughout the upper circles of A City.
Ironically, neither party showed any intentions of stepping forward to debunk the rumors, which only made them intensify.
It was unclear whether Xia Wanjun was orchestrating something behind the scenes, but Xia Ziqing didn’t bother Gu Shengyin again.
However… Gu Shengyin looked at the two people fussing on the street, feeling utterly helpless: the plot was indeed mighty. Without that life-saving incident, Wang Zhenzhen and Xia Ziqing still ended up together.
It appeared Xia Ziqing had accidentally bumped into Wang Zhenzhen, and judging by Wang Zhenzhen’s lively and kicking demeanor, she probably wasn’t hurt.
The two started arguing because of this, and Gu Shengyin could only think of the most cliched scenario: the rich young master acting arrogantly, trying to solve an accident by throwing money; the proud and unwavering common girl, fighting for her dignity with reason.
Considering the nature of this world’s storylines, Xia Ziqing would likely be attracted to a girl as unique as Wang Zhenzhen, followed by all sorts of misunderstandings and confrontations, a cycle of love and hate, before they would eventually live happily together…
Gu Shengyin scoffed: I just won’t let you get your way.
She watched from the sidelines until the two seemed to have a big fight, after which Xia Ziqing left a cheque and stormed off angrily.
Wang Zhenzhen sat on the ground crying, with quite a few passersby pointing and gossiping around her.
After some thought, she got out of the car and walked over to Wang Zhenzhen.
“Are you okay?” she asked, bending down.
Wang Zhenzhen, amidst her tears, was startled by the sudden question and reflexively looked up at Gu Shengyin.
To her shock, she forgot to cry upon seeing her.
“You, you, you… President?” Wang Zhenzhen blinked at Gu Shengyin, and then it dawned on her that she was no longer an employee at Long’s. She blushed and lowered her head.
Gu Shengyin handed her a wet tissue: “Wipe your face, your makeup has smeared from crying.”
Only then did Wang Zhenzhen remember her current state, and she quickly took it and wiped her face.
“Thank you, President… Miss Long,” Wang Zhenzhen said softly.
“No need to be polite, I was just passing by. After all, you were an employee of mine.” Gu Shengyin spoke gently.
“Eh? President, you actually remember me?” Wang Zhenzhen exclaimed in surprise, reverting to her former way of addressing her.
Gu Shengyin nodded calmly: “I recall we have met before, once by the elevator.”
Wang Zhenzhen never expected that Gu Shengyin would remember an encounter from so long ago.
The president wasn’t as aloof as the rumors suggested. She thought, looking downward.
“Are you planning to go home looking ?” Gu Shengyin observed the scattered bags on the ground containing clothing and some snacks, clearly showing that Wang Zhenzhen was on her way home from shopping.
Wang Zhenzhen nodded: “I was going to take the subway.”
Gu Shengyin thought for a moment: “How about I give you a ride home? Meeting here must be fate.”
Wang Zhenzhen obviously wanted to refuse, but Gu Shengyin’s stern expression reminded her of the authoritative boss back at the company, so she obediently got into the car.
“Why would the president come to this place?” Wang Zhenzhen chatted nervously from the passenger seat, trying to find a topic to talk about.
Gu Shengyin thought to herself that of course she came because she knew the two of them had met.
She replied indifferently, “I just remembered I needed to pick something up from around here.”
