At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins?

Chapter 470: Chapter 439 An Unavoidable Outing

Chen Qiao was silent until he left Ideal Paradise.

He had never felt such a sense of defeat, not from any aspect.

Ideal Paradise was even more formidable than he had imagined. Other than the influence Shengda had accumulated over the years in Modu’s business circles, there was almost no aspect where it could beat Ideal Paradise.

If he weren’t the chairman of Shengda Group, he would even think that Ideal Paradise was the leading internet company in Modu.

“Was I wrong?” Chen Qiao turned his head, looking at the people still celebrating at the entrance of Ideal Paradise, and for the first time doubted his own way of handling things.

After muttering to himself for a while, he got in the car and left Ideal Paradise.

“He’s gone.”

Qin Shan, who was eating cake, caught sight of Chen Qiao getting into his car and nudged Pu Tongren with her elbow.

Pu Tongren took a sip of red wine, watched Chen Qiao’s black sedan disappear at the corner, shrugged indifferently, and said, “Let him go. I reckon we’ve dealt him quite a blow.”

“After all, nearly a third of our company’s employees are poached from Shengda Game.”

He said with a mischievous smile.

Qin Shan too had a wicked grin. Ever since Gu Yu had warned them about Chen Qiao, they had run background checks on everyone sent by Shengda, and in the end, they decided not to antagonize these people openly.

Instead, they assimilated them with Ideal Paradise’s lucrative offers, digging them out from Shengda Game.

The fact proved that this tactic was indeed effective.

They had turned an enemy into one of their own.

“Alas, the company is getting better and better, but it’s a pity that Laosi can’t see this flourishing scene; I don’t know when he will come back.”

Suddenly, Pu Tongren sighed.

Although Gu Yu had only been gone for a little more than ten days, they felt as if he had been away for several months.

They used to be inseparable in their dormitory, and now with one person missing, something didn’t feel right.

“It’s early days yet. Laosi said he, at the earliest, would take two months to come back. Right now, who knows which country he’s touring!”

Yu Shutong came over and patted the big guy’s shoulder.

“Laosi is out doing something big this time!” Pu Tongren nodded.

Meanwhile, at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Chittagong, Bangladesh.

Gu Yu suddenly awoke from a two-hour nap.

“Xinyue!”

He bolted upright in bed, looked around, and did not see Lin Xinyue.

The panic set in immediately, and he threw off the covers, ready to go out and look for her.

Just then, Lin Xinyue, holding a powder puff, ran out of the bathroom in a fluster. “What’s wrong? What’s wrong! You’re awake!”

Seeing that Gu Yu was fine, she let out a sigh of relief.

But Gu Yu walked over and wrapped his arms around her so tight that he almost got the makeup powder from the puff all over himself.

Lin Xinyue, struggling to keep her hands from touching him, laughed helplessly, “What’s gotten into you today? You’re so nervous!”

Gu Yu said nothing, just held her tight.@@novelbin@@

“I’m running out of breath here.” Only when Lin Xinyue said this helplessly did he let go.

“I’m so glad you’re all right!” Gu Yu looked at Lin Xinyue, whose face had turned flushed from the lack of air, and he breathed a sigh of relief with a sentence that sounded completely nonsensical to her.

“Of course, I’m all right, but if you had kept hugging me like that, I wouldn’t be.”

Lin Xinyue rolled her eyes at him and then dipped the powder puff into some powder and patted it on his nose.

Seeing her playing around with him, Gu Yu’s anxiety finally diminished.

He didn’t dare tell Lin Xinyue that he had just had a nightmare where she was kidnapped and killed by bandits…

“Since you’ve had your nap and seem to be all right now, let’s go out and have some fun, shall we?”

Lin Xinyue applied makeup while speaking to Gu Yu in front of the mirror.

It was then that Gu Yu understood why she wanted to put on makeup.

He opened his mouth, intending to refuse subconsciously, but seeing her seriously applying makeup made it difficult to reject.

“Mhm,” he nodded.

As long as he was careful, that kind of thing should not happen.

“We’re going out with Wu Shaohan and Grandpa Dai! You should tidy up your appearance too!”

She reminded Gu Yu.

Gu Yu looked at his wrinkled clothes from sleeping in an awkward position and went to the adjacent walk-in closet to tidy up his attire.

If Lin Xinyue said that Old Dai and Wu Shaohan would be joining them,

then he felt even more reassured.

With so many people together, nothing should go wrong, right?

“I’m all set! Just waiting for you!” Lin Xinyue, who was ready, appeared behind Gu Yu and said with a smile, while staring at his back.

Gu Yu hurriedly picked up the pace and quickly straightened out his clothes.

He turned around to look at Lin Xinyue, who became even more charming and intelligent after putting on makeup, and a smile appeared on his face.

Lin Xinyue walked up to him, fastened the button of his collar, and then took his hand, “Let’s go!”

As they reached the door, with his hand on the doorknob, Gu Yu suddenly turned his head to Lin Xinyue and said, “Promise me, no matter what happens today, you must stick close to me!”

Seeing Gu Yu’s expression becoming a bit tense again, Lin Xinyue smiled sweetly, “Okay! I will definitely follow my dear husband closely!”

Gu Yu was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red at breakneck speed.

“Cough, then you must be obedient, dear wife!” he said with a flushed face.

“Yep! Let’s go out!” Lin Xinyue, now like a gentle and well-behaved little wife, clung tightly to Gu Yu.

Gu Yu felt much better.

Opening the door, they were met face-to-face with a group of people.

“What the heck, what are you guys doing!” Gu Yu instinctively stepped back with Lin Xinyue as he saw the three old men and Wu Shaohan staring at them.

The three old men wore sly smiles as if seeing a teachable young pupil.

Wu Shaohan too had a faint smile, like someone who had stumbled upon some juicy gossip.

Obviously, the sickeningly sweet conversation he and Lin Xinyue had just had at the door had been overheard by this bunch!

“Not bad, not bad, haven’t had afternoon tea yet, but the dessert is already in the tummy,”

Wu Shaohan said, laughing.

“You two really make people envious, a lucky pair of mandarin ducks!”

Dai Zhengguo was grinning from ear to ear, and the other two old men were nodding in agreement.

Coming out for medical assistance and bringing along a beautiful, adorable fiancée was truly enviable.

“Hey, where do you guys plan to go? I think it’s better not to go too far, just stay near the hotel!”

Gu Yu quickly changed the subject, steering everyone to stay close to the hotel.

He was afraid that being too far from the hotel, security wouldn’t be able to assist them promptly if something happened.

Having the results of the auspicious and ominous prediction, he was exceedingly cautious in everything he did, earnestly trying to avoid the prophecy from occurring.

Yet, to this moment, he couldn’t understand.

Why that scene would be “auspicious”!

Could the system have made a mistake?
