<h4>Chapter 322: Eat Whatever You Want. I Can Afford It. (2)</h4>
Xu Wei quickly whispered, “Gu Yu, why don’t you call Assistant Lin? Have hime over and pay the bill for us!”
Gu Yu sat there indifferently,pletely unperturbed by the situation. As if he found Xu Wei’s reaction very cute, his face broke out in a smile.
Xu Wei felt exasperated. How was he in the mood to smile? If they couldn’t pay for their meal, they’d be sent to the police! What a huge embarrassment that would be for the high and mighty CEO! She couldn’t wait to see if he’d still be smiling then!
After approximately three seconds, Gu Yu finally opened his mouth and said, “Xu Wei, is the card with you?”
Card? What card was he talking about?
Xu Wei smacked her head with her hand as she recalled the ck card that Gu Yu had given her as a New Year’s present. Because it was so valuable, she hadn’t dared to leave it lying around. She wouldn’t be able to afford to pay for it if it went missing. As a result, she kept it with her at all times.
“Yes, it is!”
Feeling like she’d found an oasis in a desert, Xu Wei quickly picked up her purse, unzipped it, and pulled out a red packet from within. Opening the red packet, she took the ck card out.
Gu Yu lifted his chin and bluntly told the manager, “My wife will be footing the bill!”
The manager scoffed inwardly.
This man had domineeringly dered moments ago that he could afford to feed the woman. In the end, he wasn’t the one who was feeding her. Instead, she was feeding him!
This was the first time he hade across a man who was so shameless and unabashed about relying on a woman!
Indeed, it was bing unreliable to judge a man by his looks!
As the manager took the ck card to settle the bill, Gu Yu’s cell phone soon chimed loudly. He nced at it to find a message from the bank notifying him of the charge.
As the corners of his lips turned up in a smile, the expression in his eyes became especially gentle.

The view from the restaurant on the hilltop was stunning, but the winds were very strong. As soon as Xu Wei walked out, the gust of wind blew over. Even though she was wearing a coat, she still shivered from the cold.
Gu Yu noticed and it reminded him of thest time he saw her wearing Lin Yuhan’s jacket.
As a result, he took off his jacket without a second thought and draped it over Xu Wei’s shoulders. Xu Wei was stunned. The next second, Gu Yu took her hand in his and led her toward the parking lot.
Xu Wei looked at the singleyer of clothing that Gu Yu was wearing, As she then looked at the jacket on her shoulders that was still warm from his body, a smile grew on her face.
The couple did not notice a car parked by the entrance of the restaurant, nor did they notice the person seated at the back whose eyes were following them the whole time. More urately put, the person’s eyes followed Gu Yu until both he and Xu Wei entered the car and drove off.
The individual sat silently in the car for a long while before finally pulling out a cell phone and dialing a call.
When the call connected, her gentle voice rang out, “Let’s meet, Chunchun.”
–
Upon returning to the apartment, Gu Yu headed directly into the study to continue with his never-ending pile of paperwork.
Xu Wei returned to the bedroom and took a shower. Aftering out, she thered body lotion all over herself and began her skincare routine. Even after she was done, she still didn’t see Gu Yu return to the room. She had no idea how much longer he had to work.
He was so strict when it came to making sure she rested adequately while working. Why couldn’t he apply the same to himself?
Indeed, rules were only meant for themon folk and not the upper ss!
Having eaten a lot for dinner, Xu Wei felt a little bloated. She was about to find something to aid in her digestion when she saw Gu Yu’s jacket thrown on the couch. She walked over to pick it up, intending to ce it in theundry basket.
She first checked the pockets to ensure nothing was left inside, and her hand came in contact with something.
Instinctively, Xu Wei pulled the object out. Her eyes widened upon seeing what it was.
