1258 I’m Still An Innocent Young Man

Qiao Xi sized up Gu Zheng. He really did not seem to know that she was the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor!

She calmed down for a moment and asked softly, “Ah Zheng, you want to invite her to restore the painting?”

Gu Zheng nodded and said, “Yes, I heard that the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor’s skills are outstanding. I’ll be relieved to have her take charge.”

Qiao Xi instantly felt slightly smug. Gu Zheng was worried about handing it to others, but he believed in her ability. This man had good taste!

However, Qiao Xi still had another question. She asked tentatively, “Ah Zheng, don’t you think that the name Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor sounds very childish and silly?”

Gu Zheng lowered his eyes to hide the smile in them. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he said gently, “No, she sounds like a little fairy.”

A cold male voice entered her ears. Qiao Xi abruptly raised her eyes to meet his smiling eyes, and the smile on her face instantly stiffened.

Qiao Xi: “…”

As expected, this b.a.s.t.a.r.d was lying to her. He clearly knew about it long ago, yet he still pretended not to know.

“Actually, whether the name is nice or not depends on who the person is. If it’s a fairy-like young lady, the name is very suitable. Any name for her will be beautiful.”

Gu Zheng slowly said sweet words, and Qiao Xi’s heart thumped. Her fair cheeks were instantly dyed red, and the man’s smile was imprinted in her starry eyes.

The two of them looked at each other deeply, their ambiguous feelings drifting between them. Gu Zheng’s hand that was holding hers gradually moved up and landed on her shoulder. He suddenly pulled her into his arms.

Qiao Xi was already in a daze and was not prepared at all. She was shocked by his sudden embrace and abruptly leaned forward. The two of them fell onto the soft sofa at the same time.

Gu Zheng quickly reached out to protect her head and pulled her into his arms. Even if she really fell, she would not be injured.

Qiao Xi lay on Gu Zheng’s body and smelled the faint sandalwood scent emitted from his body. Her expression was slightly dazed as she lay in Gu Zheng’s embrace. After a moment, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside.

Gu Yao and Song s.h.i.+jing seemed to be discussing something. Song s.h.i.+jing said anxiously, “Second Young Master, tell the president yourself. I wonder what the He family is up to.”

“I don’t f*cking know either, so I came to ask Gu Zheng. He’s so smart. He’ll definitely be able to guess the He family’s scheme! The He family suddenly gave me so many benefits. I was almost scared to death!”

Song s.h.i.+jing said, “Young Master, you’re a person of status now. Watch your words.”

“Watch my words, my *ss! My *ss is already burning now. I can’t calm down at all! What is that old fart, He Weinian, trying to do? He’s also interfering in the collaboration between Xia Corporation and the Luo family. Now, he’s giving up benefits to the Gu family’s company. Everyone knows that Gu Zheng owns Gu Corporation. He shouldn’t care about the Gu family’s company at all. Why is this old fellow suddenly giving up so many benefits? Is he crazy?”

“Everyone is praising the He family for being loyal. Although they left Li City and stopped contacting the president during that period of time, they’ve been treating the president so well since coming back. It means that they want to reconcile with the president,” Song s.h.i.+jing said.

“Reconcile, my *ss! Dream on! Don’t I know what He Weinian is thinking? He doesn’t do things that are not worth his effort. Moreover, since Gu Zheng decided to cut off all contact with the He family back then, he must have had his own reasons. Now that the He family is doing all this and Gu Zheng doesn’t reconcile with the He family, he’ll be known as an ingrate who doesn’t care about past relations.h.i.+ps. That family is really good at moral coercion!”

Gu Yao’s indignant voice came from outside the door. Qiao Xi looked at their current posture and struggled to get up, but her palm that was on the sofa suddenly slipped. She fell into Gu Zheng’s arms again.

At this moment, Gu Yao and Song s.h.i.+jing had already walked to the door. Their faces were filled with anger. Gu Yao was thinking about how to tell Gu Zheng when he suddenly pushed the door open. He was about to reprimand the He family for their inhumane behavior, but before he could say anything, the words in his mouth were stuck in his throat.

Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi were hugging each other in an ambiguous posture on the sofa. The anger in Gu Yao’s heart instantly dissipated. His eyes were filled with disdain as he said helplessly, “Can the two of you pay attention to the occasion? Why am I always b.u.mping into you two like this?! I’m still an innocent young man. This kind of thing will leave a deep impression on me. Why are you so anxious to be with each other?”

The room was silent. The blush on Qiao Xi’s face instantly spread to the back of her ears like a delicate rose.
