Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 586: The Ex-Wife Arrives (7)
Chapter 586: Chapter 586: The Ex-Wife Arrives (7)
Gu Annan himself had an aura that one could not ignore, even a calm and orderly pace exerted a compelling pressure with every step.
"Sir, may I ask if you are..."
This small hall at the corner of the second floor was actually not in use, and the lights inside were dim.
Even the ceiling light on the balcony had just been turned on.
Standing in the dark, his eyes as profound and distant as the night itself, exuded a chilling indifference that blended seamlessly with his expression.
Despite several meters of distance, Mo Yuan could distinctly feel the stern warning conveyed by that gaze.
"Sorry, we’re conducting an interview here," Mo Yuan said, as Gu Annan did not speak.
This was a public place, after all, and they had no right to send anyone away.
Besides, it was apparent that this man was no simple character.
Lu Wanwan’s lips were tightly pursed, her heartbeat intense.
She hadn’t expected Gu Annan to follow her persistently; had he been waiting for her outside the restroom earlier?
"This is where you’re conducting an interview?" he walked to the edge of the balcony. The light falling from the ceiling lamp intensified the sternness of his face. "One would think something shady was going on here, if they didn’t know any better."
Mo Yuan heard his tone was quite unfriendly but dared not show any anger.
Having struggled in the entertainment industry since childhood, he was neither naive nor arrogantly foolish.
After a deep glance at Lu Wanwan, who stood silently by his side, he eventually conceded, "It’s really just an interview, but it’s getting late. I’ll take my leave now. Miss Lu, perhaps another time."
Mo Yuan felt merely standing there made it hard to breathe under that man’s imposing presence.
He had done nothing wrong, yet the feeling this man gave him was as if he had committed some unforgivable crime, deserving to have his hands chopped off.
At this thought, a chill ran down his spine.

Gu Yunsi watched as Gu Annan entered an unused hall, then a man emerged from inside, his forehead slick with sweat.
"Wait, is there someone inside?" she asked.
Mo Yuan, just having breathed a sigh of relief, saw the demanding tone in the woman before him and casually replied, "Yes."
He was about to leave but decided to caution her, "Don’t go in, it’s not good to disturb."
What exactly would be disturbed, he had some guesses, and he believed the woman understood his meaning as well.
Having witnessed various dealings in the entertainment industry, he couldn’t imagine other possibilities.
Gu Yunsi frowned, "Is there another woman inside?"
Mo Yuan gave her a perplexed look; wasn’t that obvious? freēwēbnovel.com
"Is it a woman wearing a black tube dress?"
He nodded, lacking the patience to entertain such questions, and then descended the stairs.
Gu Yunsi felt uneasy. Her cousin hadn’t been involved with a woman in years. She had thought that even if her cousin didn’t particularly like her cousin Man, as long as he wasn’t opposed, things would eventually work out over time.
Given the family pressure and the impossibility of remaining single all his life, even if it was a marriage of convenience, her cousin Man was the only option left.
Grandmother had even mentioned that at the grand birthday in two months, she would formally pressure Gu Annan. Yet, at such a time, he seemed to have taken an interest in someone else.
Gu Yunsi found this inappropriate and immediately went downstairs to consult her cousin.

Lu Wanwan, seeing that Mo Yuan had just walked away, felt anxious and regretful. She turned to leave as well.
"Stop."
