The day after next.
Such a fast pace action to announce their rtionship once he was discharged from the hospital.
The corner of Xu Wei’s lips curled up. “Sure, why not? As I said, I will perform ording to your instruction.”
“Alright, it’s settled then.”
After Xu Wei hung up, she lost the mood to unpack her things at that moment and walked out of the room. Her eyes lit up a tiny bit when she saw the balcony.
She uncontrobly walked over to the balcony. At the balcony, she saw that the potted nts she left behind were very well taken care of. The branches trimmed and there were no signs of dehydration or wilting. So, they should have been watered regrly.
Perhaps, her Big Boss got someone to take care of these potted nts after she left.
She just did not expect that... someone that appeared to look so gentle to everyone but whose heart innermost being could not be touched actually had this side to him. A person who liked flowers and nts would always have a soft spot in their heart.
Xu Wei stared at the potted nts, thousands of emotions shed through her eyes.
–
The cocktail party was to start at eight o’clock in the evening.
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Zuo An walked towards Xu Wei’s desk when he was out from his office. His dark eyes fell on her. “Let’s go,” he said softly as he knocked his fingers lightly on her desk.
Xu Wei looked up in surprise. “It’s still early.”
“It’s time to set out. You... will need time.”
She will need time? What time did she need?
Zuo An didn’t continue. Instead, he lifted his feet and left after he muttered, “Follow me.”
What could Xu Wei do other than closed the documents and got up? She carried her bag and went after him.
Qiao Chu was already waiting for them with the car parked at the entrance of the office building. After Zuo An got into the back seat, Xu Wei instinctively pulled the door of the front passenger seat. “Wei, you’re my femalepanion today, not my secretary.” Zuo An’s soft elegant voice came to her ear.
Female Companion.
Xu Wei understood what he meant, she abandoned the front seat without any hesitation and went to the backseat to join Zuo An.
The car started once she settled in.
About half an hourter, the car stopped at the entrance of a personal fashion house.
Xu Wei was not unfamiliar with these personal fashion houses as Gu Yu brought her here before as well. However, she did not expect Zuo An’s arrangements to be so thorough.
She had initially prepared her attire and was nning to do the makeup herself.
She turned to Zuo An and smiled, “Boss, are you doing this for your image, or so that I can steal Zuo Si’s limelight with my beauty?”
Zuo An answered her frankly, “Both.”
Everyone in the elite world knew that Xu Wei was Gu Yu’s ex-wife. Now that Gu Yu wanted to announce his marriage in front of Xu Wei, he would be confirming his reputation as the man who left his wife.
In the world of the elite, a couple would still maintain their facade of a loving family despite their infidelity in the shadow as image and reputation were extremely important for people of their ss. Once their image copsed, their influence in the world would be affected too.
He could no longer stop the marriage between Gu Yu and Zuo Si. In that case... he could only add fuel to the fire and let it burn brighter.
Since Gu Yu had made his move, he had to counter-attack.
Embarrassment would be inevitable for Xu Wei on such asions. However, for the sake of the bigger picture, a sacrifice would be required. He could only try to make her fall more dignified.
Xu Wei certainly understood this logic too. She would have been mentally prepared for this when she agreed to attend.
