Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 587: The Ex-Wife Arrives (8)

Two simple syllables struck her heart like a heavy hammer.

Lu Wanwan suddenly stopped in her tracks, her brows furrowing as she decisively turned around.

"What do you want?" she asked, lifting her head to meet his gaze without any fear.

Six years had passed, and he had hardly changed.

This favored son of heaven seemed to be untouched by time, without a single imperfection left on his body.

Instead, with the maturity that came with the years, he had gained a depth and charm that only mature men have.

As always, he was dazzling, commanding a strong presence wherever he stood.

Gu Annan’s gaze was like a blade as it fell upon her face, "Is this how you behave now, casually allowing others to touch you? To grope you?"

"What are you talking about? Mind your language, please," she retorted.

His first sentence had already angered her.

The emotions she had accumulated over the past two days, not knowing how to properly face him, finally exploded after this formal opening statement, causing her to tear away all pretense.

"Don’t pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about!" Gu Annan’s eyes hardened, and he stepped forward, closing the distance between them.

Originally, he was just annoyed at her lack of self-respect, but now he was truly furious over her distant use of the word "trouble."

Lu Wanwan had no room to retreat, her back against the balcony railing, right at a ninety-degree corner.

This body that she had always been unable to resist moved forward, and she was helplessly trapped within his domain.

She found it ridiculous, looking up at him and laughing out loud.

"Mr. Gu, are we familiar? What I do is none of your business, and it seems to me you have no right to dictate my actions."

Her jaw ached, and her laughter froze in the night breeze.

His long fingers tightened around her, his eyes cold as ice.

"Do we really need to ask how familiar we are?" he questioned.

"Mr. Gu, please let go of me," she said through clenched teeth.

A sneer played on Gu Annan’s lips, "Others can touch you with impunity, but I’m not allowed?"

"What on earth are you talking about." Lu Wanwan ground her teeth, each word deliberate, "If you have a problem, you can just say it. There’s no need to insult me like this."

No sooner had the words left her mouth than pain shot through her chest.

And with the pain came an uncomfortable, tingling sourness.

His hand had actually touched the edge of her chest wrap and pressed down.

The forceful yet indifferent glide of his fingers sent an embarrassing blush to her face immediately.

Before she could speak, she heard his mocking voice, "If you had been just a little later, can you say that his hand wouldn’t have landed here?"

Embroiled in shame and anger, Lu Wanwan pushed against him with all her might.

She didn’t manage to push him away, but fortunately, she did push away his hand.

"Only you would be so dirty, so handsy with everyone you meet!" Lu Wanwan erupted in rage, her face flushed with embarrassment and urgency, "Judge others by your own wicked standards!"

"And that man downstairs, did he keep his hands to himself?" he pressed, his anger barely contained as if he wanted to devour the woman who dared to call other men gentlemen.

She looked up sharply, her cold eyes confronting him, "Mr. Gu, was I not clear enough just now? My affairs are none of your business. If you show too much concern, I might misunderstand."

She had not forgotten the woman who had been with him downstairs earlier.

As a member of the media, even if she intentionally tried to ignore his scandals, she still roughly knew about the news that the heir of the Gu family might be planning a second marriage.

So she had been much more composed than Xu Yuan was in his outrage yesterday.

"You think now that you’re just my ex-wife, scandals won’t be associated with the Gu family?" Gu Annan’s hands pressed down on her shoulders, his dark eyes as profound as the sea, "This mark, you will never be able to rid yourself of it in this lifetime."
