Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 282 - 275: What a Stark Difference

At the entrance of a high-end neighborhood, a black Mercedes slowly came to a stop. Wu Chengzu looked at Bai Qianyu beside him, "We’re at your place."

Bai Qianyu glanced outside, then turned to Wu Chengzu, leaning in closer, "Are you really not planning to take me to your place?" After speaking, Bai Qianyu shyly bit her lip, "Or a hotel works too."

Bai Qianyu batted her eyes at Wu Chengzu, her lips slightly parted, thinking she must look stunningly seductive right now.

Little did she know, to Wu Chengzu, she appeared utterly repulsive.

Wu Chengzu maintained a gentlemanly smile, his tone urbane, "I have things to do tonight."

Hearing Wu Chengzu’s indirect refusal, Bai Qianyu’s expression turned aggrieved, "What kind of things do you have to take care of at this hour~?"

Bai Qianyu’s coy voice sent shivers down Chen Bei’s spine from the driver’s seat. Chen Bei couldn’t help but admire his boss for putting up with this flirtatious woman all night, from dining to shopping, spending quite a sum in the process. After shopping, there was another round of drinking at the bar, her intent clearly to get the boss drunk.

Wu Chengzu didn’t bother explaining what his nighttime affairs were to Bai Qianyu. Instead, he got out of the car, walked around to open the passenger door for Bai Qianyu, "It’s late, you should rest early."

Seeing the door open, Bai Qianyu reluctantly got out. Chen Bei fetched several shopping bags from the trunk, standing beside Bai Qianyu.

"There’s so much stuff, Chen Bei, help Qianyu carry it upstairs." Wu Chengzu suggested.

Upon hearing this, Bai Qianyu’s face turned awkward. She quickly waved her hand, "No need, I can go up myself."

Wu Chengzu gave Bai Qianyu a deep glance, smiling faintly as he said, "Alright then."

Chen Bei placed the items at Bai Qianyu’s feet and turned back to the driver’s seat.

"I’ll be going then."

Wu Chengzu nodded slightly at Bai Qianyu, ready to get into the car when Bai Qianyu grabbed his jacket.

Bai Qianyu leaned forward, lips slightly pursed, eyes half-closed, with a pleading expression.

Wu Chengzu’s eyes flashed with intense disgust as he gently pushed Bai Qianyu away, "Qianyu, what’s wrong with you?"

Bai Qianyu felt a bit awkward. Didn’t he understand she was hinting for a kiss?

"Uh... nothing..." Bai Qianyu unwillingly stepped back, her eyes filled with grievance as she looked at Wu Chengzu.

Wu Chengzu smiled, "Then, see you next time."

After speaking, Wu Chengzu got into the car, shut the door, and drove away.

Bai Qianyu stood at the entrance, watching Wu Chengzu’s car leave, feeling waves of disappointment. "Damn man, playing hard to get with me!"

The neighborhood security guard came out, looking at Bai Qianyu and the pile of stuff on the ground, politely asking, "Miss, may I know which unit you’re in, do you need help carrying your things back?"

With the guard’s inquiry, Bai Qianyu felt embarrassed. This wasn’t her home at all. She had assumed she’d be staying at Wu Chengzu’s place tonight, but Wu Chengzu insisted on bringing her back. She didn’t want Wu Chengzu to know she lived in a shabby place, so she casually claimed to live in this upscale neighborhood. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Bai Qianyu looked at the guard, already frustrated by Wu Chengzu’s rejection, and now, the guard’s question made her explode, "Who needs your help, just go about your business!"

The guard was stunned, having been good-heartedly scolded, glared at Bai Qianyu, and returned to the booth.

Bai Qianyu looked at the pitch-black sky, unable to find a single cab this late at night. How was she going to get home?

Through the rearview mirror, Chen Bei watched the earlier scene, "Boss, that woman is still standing there."

Wu Chengzu didn’t speak, gazing calmly ahead.

"She brought this on herself, clearly doesn’t live there but still tries to save face." Chen Bei had no sympathy for such women like Bai Qianyu.

Only then did Wu Chengzu chuckle and casually remark, "There’s such a vast difference between her and her sister."
