Chapter 63 - Collaboration II (1/2)
Even she and her father would take that role in the future she must not let it be shown to the others. Their party was not strong enough to topple the old man.
Guan Gao Huan smirked inwardly as he saw the panicked came to Wuyue. He was there when this sparrow tried to act like a phoenix. Her greedy eyes could not escape in his eyes. This kind of person coming to him had only one purpose- that was to curry his favor and use him.
But why would they let him? Coming to him was akin as coming to the lion's den.
Besides, this greedy girl looked like she wanted to steal the position of his fiance.
And what his fiances have. Was his.
Can anyone take it away from him?
He was not that kind of person.
”Ms. Xiong, don't be polite of me. I'm in the wrong.” He apologetic said.
Wuyue was sweating now. How could she answer? If she accepts it, the conversation would be finished but the elders had ears. They would undoubtedly hear about this exchange per word. She would be reprimanded for representing the whole Xiong family. But if she denied it, this sly man would surely take this conversation long and would refuse to let her go.
'Ahh! I thought he is a dumb man! '
But she was wrong. This man could not be played. There was only one thing left now. If they could not use him, maybe a collaboration could suffice.
”Wuyue, would not dare. The buyer only came from the second branch. I'm here not just to greet young master Gao Huan. Could master Gao Huan did not remember me?” Wuyue takes a step forward as she gave him her best smile.
”We are in the same class in preschool. Unfortunately, you left Paris before we enter grade school. And I never have seen you after that time until now.” Wuyue looked at Gao Huan up and down. Then back at his face.
”You really changed. Not only your behavior at that time, even your appe--”
”Young miss Wuyue must miss those times. Why not I invite you for a drink and reminisced that past?” Gao Huan smiled gently. As his eyes flashed darkly.
Wuyue did not notice it. She was confused for a moment as she studied Gao Huan closely.
But when she heard they would talk privately she was escalated.
She knew it! Using their acquaintance in the past could carry his favor.
She answered immediately.
”Of course. There's no reason for me to decline. It is good to talk about our childhood memories.” Wuyue smiled as she was lead by Gao Huan to the farthest table.
It was true that Wuyue and Gao Huan were in the same class in preschool. Wuyue remembered it correctly since his father always told her to befriends those who had an exceptional background. And Gao Huan as a Guan was of course noticed by her. She tried to befriend him a few times but the timid and shy young boy was aloof.
Wuyue furrowed her brows as questions after questions filled her mind. Her attention at that time was in the two boys who had Chinese blood and could be heirs in the future. So she watched their every move and have a little understanding of their behavior.
But the Guan Gao Huan standing before her...
How could a person change so much?
It must probably ten years ago. But could eyes change color? Wuyue remembers correctly that his eyes were only light brown close to golden...but not that golden.
She was about to ask it when Gao Huan gestured to the seat in front of him.
”After you.”
Wuyue smiled sweetly and sat.
She began to open her mouth for her scripted pleasantries when Gao Huan beat him to it.
”So what Ms. Wuyue wanted to talk about? I know you just not come to me to talk about the past, aren't we?” Gao Huan said as his usual smile was gone.
He who had acted gentle in front of others had his own bottom line.
Do not touch his past.
He was a little annoyed someone knows that Gao Huan.
And it was a miscalculation in his part that this greedy girl knew him.
'Let's see what this girl has on her sleeve...'
Wuyue's smile faltered a bit. She did not expect this guy to change 180°. Since he wants to be direct what's the need to act for?
So Wuyue drops her smile and rereachesor her pouch.
The original plan was to befriend this guy and have a private meeting for another day. She even planned to seduce him. But unfortunately, he was not what he was before. She was good playing at that timid and shy guy, not this kind of man who was two-faced and unpredictable.
' Never mind...as long as we come to this. '
She gave him a piece of paper.
