Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 614: The Big Secret Discovered by Little Momo (5)
Chapter 614: Chapter 614: The Big Secret Discovered by Little Momo (5)
Gu Annan was dressed in a black suit, his expression cold and solemn.
The warm glow of the crystal chandelier fell on him but could not conceal his chilly presence.
Lu Wanwan withdrew her gaze and smiled at Meng Qin, "Let’s go outside, the wedding is probably about to start soon."
Meng Qin was dazzled by her smile—he had scarcely seen her smile since they met a few hours ago. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
He thought she seemed somewhat cold, even began to wonder if she was too proud or had too high standards, which was why she didn’t have a boyfriend.
He prided himself on being a very eligible bachelor and it seemed she was quite satisfied with him.
"Sure, wherever you want to go is fine."
Lu Wanwan had just turned and taken a few steps when a dark figure blocked her path.
Gu Annan was lazily pocketing one hand in his trouser pocket, while in his other hand, he held a wineglass with rich red wine, looking down at her with barely concealed scrutiny.
She was thinking that this time he had no reason to say anything; Meng Qin wasn’t a celebrity, and even if he was a rich second-generation, he typically had nothing to do with the media.
Plus, there were no paparazzi here; she didn’t believe there could be any issue regarding the Gu family’s reputation.
She proudly lifted her head, only to hear his indifferent voice, "Where’s Xu Yuan?"
Meng Qin recognized the man, "You’re Gu Annan?"
Gu Annan gave him a cold glance, not bothering to utter a single word.
"Xu Yuan and her boyfriend have wandered off somewhere, are you asking, Zhiheng?" she replied lightly.
"Mm," Gu Annan responded and took a light sip from his glass.
"I’ll pass the message when I see her later."
Gu Annan didn’t speak nor did he walk away.
But Meng Qin wasn’t about to let this opportunity slip, "Gu Annan, I didn’t expect to have the chance to meet you. I’m Wanwan’s boyfriend."
He had clearly seen the contempt and disregard in this man’s eyes. Recalling his introduction to Xu Yuan as Lu Wanwan’s boyfriend when he arrived, he thought this could be a chance to bridge the distance between them.
Gu Annan’s dark eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of amusement, "Really?"
"Yes, although we haven’t known each other for long, I consider it my luck to be her boyfriend," Meng Qin said, turning towards Lu Wanwan. Finding she did not object, his eyes filled with adoration.
A scoff suddenly broke the silence.
Gu Annan, inscrutable as ever, with his sharp gaze and casual tone said, "So this is your taste now."
Meng Qin’s face froze; he hadn’t anticipated Gu Annan to be so blunt.
Lu Wanwan, seeing Shuman approaching, laughed and took Meng Qin’s arm, "Your taste hasn’t improved much either, Gu Annan. Actually, life is about being happy. As long as I’m willing, even if I were destitute, I’d still be content."
Meng Qin suddenly felt bitter. He had always considered himself a good catch, but in her eyes, it seemed he was no different from someone with nothing to his name.
"Does your boyfriend know you’ve been married before?" Gu Annan asked slowly, his fingers tightening around the stem of the wineglass.
Meng Qin was startled, "Divorced?"
"It seems he doesn’t know. You might want to reconsider," Gu Annan said, his lips curving in a cold smirk as Shuman came over. Wrapping an arm around her, he turned and left without another word.
Lu Wanwan, whose budding romance had just been maliciously snuffed out, now felt a strong urge to hurl her champagne at him.

Outside the venue, two "Little Naibaos" had successfully infiltrated.
The staff checking invitations generally did not pay much attention to children running around everywhere. After all, the place was booked for the event, and the guests were all either rich or noble.
Moreover, these two children had an exceptional air and dressed fittingly, clearly not from average families.
