Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 134 - : Forgot Your Own Identity?
Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Forgot Your Own Identity?
Lu Wanwan stood in place, waiting for a moment, her heartbeat involuntarily quickening.
But she didn’t receive a single response before she saw Gu Annan head upstairs as if she didn’t exist at all.
This outcome made her feel that her earlier thoughts were indeed ludicrous—Gu Annan had agreed to her becoming his fiancée only due to his parents’ pressure, and as he had said, he could call off the engagement anytime.
If she ruined Lu Kexin’s engagement and then Gu Annan quickly retracted his agreement, letting the Lu Family’s alliance fall through, the consequences were unimaginable.
At the very least, her father and Lin Yu would never forgive her.
She bit her lip, her complexion growing ever paler.
Her grandmother’s surgery hadn’t been performed yet, she was still in the hospital—she couldn’t afford to become the thorn in the Lu Family’s side at such a time!
“Miss Lu, why haven’t you stayed here lately?” Aunt Li greeted her warmly with a smile. “After all, you and the young master are already engaged, it’d be more convenient to stay here.”
“I… I’ve been quite busy with school and work recently.”
“I see.” Aunt Li looked a bit disappointed. “Do come back to stay after you’re less busy; the house is too quiet otherwise. Oh, the second miss sent back an engagement gift; it’s still in your room. You haven’t come back, and the young master has been away on business, so it’s just been left there. Go up and have a look!”
Lu Wanwan, preoccupied with the matter over the phone, absentmindedly said, “Okay.”

Upstairs in the study.
Gu Annan stood by the window on a phone call, his other hand in his pocket.
“Were those two journalists expelled by Bai Lingyun’s people?”
On the other end was Zhao Chen, who had done some probing, “Yes, Bai Lingyun’s people took action when they found the journalists and even gave them a beating. But it was done covertly; the journalists probably have no idea it was Bai Lingyun’s people who interfered.”
“Where did they get the information?”
“Still looking into it, probably anonymous tips, which makes it more troublesome. Magazines like theirs get a lot of information from anonymity. But it’s strange that they would attach photos to such blatant fabrications.”
“Send the photos over, keep investigating.”

Gu Annan ended the call and turned around, only to see Lu Wanwan standing at the half-open door.
“If you need something, come in and speak.”
Lu Wanwan pushed the door open, staring somewhat dazedly at his divine yet ice-cold countenance.
She had no idea what the phone call was about, but it seemed to have made his aura even more formidable.
Was this really the same person who had held her hand at the airport just earlier?
“It’s nothing.” Seeing Gu Annan slightly furrow his brow, she thought he was getting impatient, “It’s just that Aunt Li mentioned your sister sent a gift, it’s in the room I used to stay in. Do you want me to bring it to you?”
If it were on the plane, she might have said it outright.
But now, facing this expressionsless Gu Annan, she held back, feeling it wasn’t a good time.
“No need, you open it yourself.” Gu Annan tossed his phone onto the desk.
“Then when can I… go back to school?” she asked, her heart pounding.
He knitted his brows and lifted his eyes, “Did I agree to you going back to school?”
“…”
“Have you forgotten your current status?”
Their engagement had been quite low-key, hadn’t it?
Although many media outlets had reported the heir of the Gu Family getting engaged, they didn’t even know who this mysterious heir was, let alone his fiancée.
Even her father’s company hadn’t dared to release specific details.
Gu Annan, watching her puzzled contemplation, frowned deeper in annoyance, “You said, go to your house tomorrow?”
