Chapter 152 The Miss Whom the Gu Family Doesn’t Want
Jiang Li came very quickly. Before Su Huai had finished eating, he caught a glimpse of a figure sitting down opposite him.
The man's eyes were fiery, his elbows resting on the table, his upper body leaning forward, his eyeliner raised in a bold and thin line.
The makeup that is difficult for ordinary people to pull off appears particularly harmonious on this person.
"Doctor Su, the internet has been abuzz with discussions about you lately, and you're still in the mood to come see me."
Then, her voice became ambiguous: "Do you like me that much?"
To be honest, Jiang Li is beautiful, with a mature and gorgeous beauty.
But the beauty she displayed was different from that of Gu Yu. Gu Yu's mature beauty was the unique charm exuded by women in the workplace. She was gorgeous yet gentle, and strong yet gentle.
She seemed to be born with a strong and bold personality, whether in her dressing style or her conversation.
"Whether I like Miss Jiang or not, doesn't Miss Jiang know it herself?"
Pushing away her hand on his wrist, Su Huai raised his eyes and put down the chopsticks in his hand.
Their eyes met, but no sparks flew.
Maybe it was just Jiang Li's one-sided flirting, and it was destined to be a one-man show for her.
"Have you finished eating?" Jiang Li concealed the disappointment in his eyes, and when he looked up again, his eyes were full of smiles. "Come to my office and talk after you finish eating."
Feeling the inquiring gazes from all around him, Su Huai nodded in cooperation.
Following Jiang Li all the way up, she discovered that the Japanese restaurant actually had a second floor.
It’s really a big deal. The shopping mall is located in the center of Yongdong Central District. It can rent two floors here, and the area is not small. The amount of money must be not low.
The second floor is not used to receive guests. When going up the stairs, Su Huai saw a sign hanging on the handrail.
It says: No entry for non-staff members.
She was a little curious for a moment. It’s just a Japanese restaurant. Does it need such a large office area?
Following closely behind Jiang Li, Su Huai was enveloped by the scent of cologne, which was neither strong nor weak.
If my guess is correct, it should be the HERMES model.
She didn't know much about perfume, but she had a particularly deep memory for the scent of cologne.
"Please sit down, Dr. Su. Would you like something to drink?"
Jiang Li acted like a host welcoming guests and opened the refrigerator. Su Huai could see clearly through the gap in her arm that there were a wide variety of drinks inside.
"Just plain water will do, thank you." Without looking any further, she sat down on the sofa.
Looking around, this is not an office, it is clearly a private living area.
There is a TV, a refrigerator, and of course, there is a desk, but it only takes up a very small part.
There was a piano placed near the floor-to-ceiling window. When Su Huai's eyes fell on the logo on the side of the piano, he was a little surprised.
It turned out to be a Steinway.
She had not carefully investigated Jiang Li's background before, so it seemed that Jiang Li should also come from a wealthy family.
Laughter interrupted Su Huai's thoughts, and a glass of ice water appeared in front of him.
The water droplets condensed from the cold air slid down the wall of the cup, but were blocked in the middle, and some of them flowed onto the slender white fingers.
Only then did she realize that Jiang Li was sitting next to her, holding a glass of water.
"Thanks."
Su Huai took the ice water and sipped it gently. The greasy feeling brought by eating salmon and tempura disappeared in an instant.
Before she could take a few more sips, Jiang Li's seductive voice rang out beside her: "Let me guess, what do you want to see me for today?"
"Is it because the police came after me last time, or is it because your wife found out about your infidelity and you want to pay me hush money?"
She tacitly did not mention the passionate feelings of that night, and Su Huai would not mention it either.
The surface of the water cup filled with ice cubes was covered with a thick layer of frost, and Su Huai's palms were frozen white. She had to put the cup on the small coffee table in front of her.
“What if I say both?”
"That proves my guess was correct."
The scent of cologne filled my nose, and the face reflected in my pupils was getting closer and closer.
But when it was about to stick to him, Su Huai dodged it without leaving a trace.
Seeing her hiding from him as if she were some kind of monster, Jiang Li couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
"What? We're already sleeping, are you still worried about physical contact?"
Hearing this, Su Huai smiled, but his eyes were distant and cold: "It's just a one-night stand. When the sun comes, of course we need to keep our distance."
"You're so heartless. You just throw it away after using it."
Jiang Li doesn't care about these things. Whatever she wants, she will never fail to get it.
But Su Huai was determined and failed again and again.
Finally, Su Huai couldn't stand it anymore and stood up from the sofa: "Miss Jiang, I'm already married."
The implication is that we can't have a future, and I won't abandon my wife for you.
After she finished speaking, Jiang Li showed sarcasm on her face. She raised her head slightly and looked at Su Huai with a playful expression.
"Really? The eldest daughter that the Gu family doesn't want?"
"I heard that it was the Gu family that saved your father's company that made you agree to marry Gu Yu. How can a marriage without emotional foundation be considered a marriage?"
As the subject changed, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Are you afraid of retaliation from the Gu family? It's just the Gu family."
His words were filled with disdain.
This made Su Huai curious, and she rolled up her sleeves that had slipped off her arms because of Jiang Li's movement.
The process was not long, but in Jiang Li's view, her every move seemed to be in slow motion.
Abstinence and temptation are everywhere.
Jiang Li didn't like the elegant beauty Su Huai. She liked the obedient younger man.
But when she saw Su Huai for the first time, it was as if she had been bewitched, and from then on, she could not stop.
She has a special locked album on her phone, and the protagonist of the photos is only one person——
Su Huai.
There is Su Huai sitting by the window swallowing food in small sips, her frowning face while chatting with Wen Cheng, and her lonely and thin back.
Because Su Huai would visit the Japanese restaurant from time to time, Miss Jiang, who loved to play and had a lot of money, directly bought the second floor and turned it into her own lounge.
She seldom came before, but since that fleeting glimpse, she has come every day, seven days a week.
Afraid of missing the opportunity to meet Su Huai.
Having a secret crush is always painful, no matter how high your status is.
Su Huai's cold voice brought Jiang Li back to reality from her memories, and her eyes immediately revealed a hint of bitterness.
Su Huai didn't care about that. "You seem to look down on the Gu family?"
Jiang Li nodded as if it was a matter of course: "He's just a chef who runs a restaurant. Is he that great?"
A company with a market value of hundreds of billions, but in her mouth, it became a chef who opened a restaurant.
Su Huai didn't know whether to say that she was ignorant, arrogant, or curious about the power behind her.
"No matter what, I'm just a small doctor. Going against the Gu family is like an egg hitting a stone."
Not wanting to say more to her, Su Huai changed the subject to the purpose of his visit today before Jiang Li spoke.
She had no interest and no time to care about Jiang Li's family background, and she didn't want to listen to boring nonsense.
“My wife found this in my car.”
"If I remember correctly, this should be yours, right?"
