Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Can’t You Dress More Properly Like Miss Lu?

“How difficult is it to put on pants? Does it have to take until tomorrow to be considered quick?” Gu Annan inexplicably glanced at her and walked straight to the door.

Lu Wanwan touched her own flushed face and also felt that her question was a bit silly.

Watching him continue to act cool, as if nothing had happened, almost like a completely different person from the passionate one from moments ago.

For a moment, she was in a daze, feeling as if what had just happened was a dream.

“How long are you planning to stand there? Hurry up,” Gu Annan stood at the door, speaking with barely concealed impatience.

His mood was still riled from being interrupted, but after all, this was a collaboration partner, and it wouldn’t be proper to simply leave the person hanging without care.

“Right away.”

Lu Wanwan hurried over and closed the door behind her.

The Garden Restaurant at the hotel had been fully reserved by Kiyohara Noji, who had cleared the place out.

Gu Annan had not yet arrived and he was already fidgeting with anxiety.

With an awkward attempt at Chinese he carefully inquired, “Will Mister Gu really grace us with his presence?”

Kiyohara Aiko, standing beside him with red-rimmed eyes, worried about what to do if Mister Gu didn’t show up!

Zhao Chen let out a few awkward laughs, “He will come, but how long Mister Kiyohara has to wait, I don’t know. When I called Mister Gu just now, he was with his fiancée… cough! He was probably not too happy to be interrupted.”

Kiyohara Noji regretted it even more, feeling blue with remorse.

If he had known that Mister Gu was so inclined at midday, he wouldn’t have rushed over here after receiving his daughter’s call.

Thinking of this, he looked reproachfully at Aiko once more and sighed heavily.

With his daughter’s beauty and family background, he was very supportive of her desire to win over Mister Gu.

But who would have known, Mister Gu had gotten engaged without their knowledge.

Soon, his information arrived—it was the investigation he had ordered on China before heading to the hotel.

He frowned at the results.

Turned out, the engagement was confirmed just a week ago, to the daughter of a Manchester media tycoon. It seemed she wasn’t the kind of messy woman Aiko had described.

Her social status and background were not bad at all!

He handed the results to Aiko, who hadn’t yet given up. She snorted coldly and turned her head away.

“Mister Gu,” Zhao Chen saw the two approaching from the garden and just as he was starting to relax, he noticed Gu Annan was still in his pajamas.

Mister Gu, do you really have to make it so obvious that you’ve just gotten out of bed?

Wouldn’t it be better if you dressed as properly as Miss Lu?

Zhao Chen suddenly remembered how not long ago he had been asked to have all the clothes in his closet washed…

“Mister Gu, thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule.”

Seeing him appear, Kiyohara Noji immediately bowed at a ninety-degree angle, maintaining the posture for several seconds before standing up straight again.

His old face was filled with regret and guilt.

Mister Gu was still wearing his pajamas, and coupled with the coldness on his face…

As a man, Kiyohara Noji understood this kind of mood all too well, so he regretted his choice of time even more.

“Aiko, why haven’t you apologized to Mister Gu and Mrs. Gu?”

Lu Wanwan was still not used to being called Mrs. Gu.

“Actually, I am not even…” She hadn’t finished speaking when she felt the icy, warning gaze from the side.

She wisely closed her mouth.

Recalling Gu Annan’s earlier scolding about not losing face, she immediately put on a frosty countenance, “If apologies worked, what would we need the police for?”

Kiyohara Noji was taken aback.

Shouldn’t people at least offer a polite word or two and let the matter go?

Just how upset was Mrs. Gu!

“I am very sorry!” Aiko bowed reluctantly.

“Miss Kiyohara must have heard,” Gu Annan said with a cold laugh, “If it’s just a verbal apology, she does not accept it.”
