Chapter 280 We Need to Talk (4)_1

"Tonight Lin Qiang has a dinner meeting and as her assistant, of course I have to go. I earn my own living, not as much as you, but it’s nothing to be ashamed of,"

The scent of tension in Eleven’s words was apparent, causing Gu Liancheng’s brows to furrow deeper, "What got into you?"

"Nothing," Eleven lowered her head and drank her porridge in one breath, "I’m finished eating, I’ll leave first."

Putting down her chopsticks, Eleven stood up and rushed toward the doorway.

Gu Liancheng put his chopsticks down in a serious manner, "Stop."

Viewing the reflection from the glass in front, he saw the figure behind him stop momentarily then proceeded to continue walking.

Gu Liancheng stood up, "Fang Eleven! I told you to stop!"

It can be tough to hold your head high when you’re beneath someone else’s roof.

There was no choice, Eleven could not afford many quarrels with him.

She stopped at the door, sensing that Gu Liancheng was slowly walking towards her.

She could feel his authoritative aura enveloping her. His voice was cold yet enraging, "Fang Eleven, your behavior lately has been increasingly inappropriate."

Eleven turned her head to see his enchanting face, she wanted to respond but stopped herself.

Looking at her face showing a hint of defiance, Gu Liancheng swallowed his upcoming words, "You are not allowed to go to Ye Fei’s house tonight, call me once you’re done with work, we need to have a talk."

Eleven didn’t respond, once perceived he let her go, she put on her shoes and ran out.

So be it, let’s talk, she’s not scared!

The worst that could happen is divorce, that must be what he wants to talk about tonight, right?

Watching her run away without looking back, Gu Liancheng was not particularly amused.

Such a nuisance early in the morning!

"Sir... did you have another disagreement with your wife?"

"Do we often have disagreements recently?"

Aunt Fang nodded, "Yes, indeed. It’s been an eventful autumn. In the past few years, despite the occasional scandals, your wife never took them to heart. She always said she trusted you and you wouldn’t do anything inappropriate. But lately... "

"What has she been doing at home these days?"

"Nothing much, she’s just been bringing loads of work home and working overtime. Oh, I understand now. She must be upset because of work-related stress and is bringing it home."

"Fine, you can go back to your duties now."

Is she venting her anger on him?

...

At seven o’clock in the evening, Wanhe Restaurant.

Eleven got out of the nanny car before Lin Qiang, surveying the surroundings.

Although the outing was kept low-profile and did not attract media attention, it was still necessary to be cautious.

"Sister Qiang, I’ve checked everywhere, there’s no paparazzi, we can go in."

...

At eight o’clock in the evening, Wanhe Restaurant.

Everyone was getting out of their cars. Gu Mengmeng was the first to jump out, "Oh yeah! We all get to have a big meal together tonight! Grandpa, Grandma, Mom and Dad, Uncle.... so many people!"

Turning her head, she saw a face as black as coal, which scared Gu Mengmeng into retreating.

Everyone was happy, only Mr. Gu had a gloomy face!

No matter, it was time to eat!

...

"President Zhang... I really can’t drink..."

As Lin Qiang is allergic to alcohol, everyone turned to pressure Eleven. She could handle a few small drinks, but feared it wouldn’t stop at just a few. And it was red wine. Once she drank it, she would surely get drunk tonight.

"Are you disrespecting us? Lin Qiang, you’ve chosen a great assistant."

Even the normally tolerant Lin Qiang furrowed her brows, "Just drink one glass, you can’t disrespect President Zhang!"

Eleven tried her best to evade, but ended up gulping down the full glass of red wine. All of a sudden, it felt like her throat was on fire and her stomach was churning.
