President Daddy, let go of my mommy

Chapter 723 Warm Invitation

Before going to bed, Gu Qiqi yawned leisurely, walked into the bedroom with unhurried steps, and saw Zhan Mingxi leaning on the sofa holding a document in his hand, frowning slightly. Flicking through page after page.

Gu Qiqi, who was thinking of pranks suddenly welling up in his mind, looked at the man with a hint of slyness in his eyes, and when he was about to walk to him, he deliberately lowered the sound of his footsteps, and tiptoed around to Behind him, he opened his hand and covered his sight.

"Then, guess who I am?" The deep and hoarse voice resounded in Zhan Mingxi's ears, but he didn't immediately pay attention to Gu Qiqi who was standing behind the sofa, instead he subconsciously closed the booth The document opened in front of him was conveniently stuffed under the pillow beside him.

What is he trying to hide?
The slightly rising smile remained at the corner of his mouth, Gu Qiqi, who silently took a panoramic view of his series of movements, swept away the mood of wanting to tease him before, and lowered his hand with a gloomy expression.

"It's so late, you should go to bed too."

The big warm palm tightly wrapped around her cool little hand. If it was the past, maybe Gu Qiqi could vaguely feel a little sweetness, but now as long as he thinks about his subconscious behavior just now, there will be a trace of mixed feelings. Emotions lingered in her heart, making it impossible for her to keep smiling brightly at him.

"I want to accompany you for a while, and when the pointer reaches eleven o'clock, I will go to bed obediently." Gu Qiqi, who pretended to be relaxed, pointed to the clock hanging on the wall not far away, with his left arm around his neck, He glanced at the black document under the pillow.

"Well, take your time, or I'll tie you up to the bed later." The seemingly threatening words didn't make Gu Qiqi feel the slightest bit of fear, but he still followed his will, calmly He responded with a sound.

The two of them were speechless for a while, and the silence gradually engulfed their surroundings.

Eager to find a topic to break the silence, she suddenly remembered the gossip that Jing Xin had told her in the Zhan family.

After thinking for a while, she still hesitated to ask Zhan Mingxi whether the founder of the Zhan Group was not from the Zhan family.

"Where did you hear that?" Zhan Mingxi, who didn't expect Gu Qiqi to suddenly ask about this, suddenly turned cold.

After all, he didn't think that in Gu Qiqi's current circle, someone would say such things to her inexplicably.

"That's right, I overheard other people's gossip, and then I overheard it." The embarrassed Gu Qiqi didn't reveal Jing Xin's name.One must know that Zhan Mingxi's complexion is darker than the bottom of a scorched pot.

"I can only tell you that the real founder of the Zhan Group died in a car accident a long time ago. It seems that your work in the gallery is too easy, and those who are free can gossip about such things. I advise you, It’s best not to get too involved with that kind of person.”

Zhan Mingxi turned his head, stared solemnly at Gu Qiqi's slightly startled face, and warned.

Didn't I just mention it out of curiosity, I didn't expect him to respond to her with such a serious expression.

Gu Qiqi, who pursed her lips at the moment, swallowed involuntarily, and could only explain with a dry smile that she heard it in the elevator when she went to Zhan to deliver documents one day.Directly in front of his face, he wiped out his colleagues in the gallery.

"Some past days, I don't want to mention them again, you'd better not go too far into the past." Zhan Mingxi rubbed his temples with his fingertips, stood up abruptly, and walked out of the bedroom.

Gu Qiqi, who was still standing behind the sofa, waited for Zhan Mingxi's figure to disappear in the corridor before silently looking away.However, she subconsciously glanced at the black folder, and became more and more curious about what was printed in black and white.

However, when her fingertips were about to touch the folder, she paused for a moment, and after a faint sigh, she still took it back.

It is said that curiosity killed the cat. Instead of being a person who knows everything, it is better to be simple. Her head can't hold such a mess.

Gu Qiqi shook his head, secretly suppressing the concern in his heart.

Although she didn't know why, she didn't pay much attention to it afterwards.

The next morning, Gu Qiqi took the private car that Zhan Mingxi had prepared for her as usual, and went to the gallery to go to work.

As soon as she was seated, she put the handbag on her arm by the table, and after looking around vigilantly at the surrounding environment, she turned around and raised her hand to pat Fu Sisi who was working.

"Sisi, I heard that Xue Wancheng went to your place last night?" Gu Qiqi, who deliberately lowered his voice, leaned on the back of the chair with one hand, and raised his eyebrows at her with great interest.

You must know that men and women are in the same room in the middle of the night, and those who have a little feeling for each other before will not accidentally shoot each other.After her and Zhan Mingxi's assists last night, I believe they should have settled their suspicions before.

"Going, so what?" Fu Sisi held the ballpoint pen in her hand and tapped on Gu Qiqi's head with a blank expression, "I know what's going on in your head right now, but I can be very rational. Let me tell you, there is no future between me and him."

There will be no future.She seemed to have made up her mind, and she stared at Gu Qiqi with some firmness in her eyes.

Gu Qiqi frowned slightly, but he did not express his opinion on this matter in front of Fu Sisi.

Zhan Mingxi had told her over and over again that if they could not get involved in their affairs, then they should not get involved.So until now, she just sometimes couldn't help but mention it to Fu Sisi, but the final decision was still in the hands of the other party, and she had no right to interfere.

"Since you have figured it out, then I have nothing to persuade you." Gu Qiqi, who felt relieved about this matter, nodded her head to express her understanding.

Although she always felt that Fu Sisi and Xue Wancheng were a couple who cherished each other, it was a pity that they would not go through those ups and downs hand in hand, but chose to live well separately.

Tonight, the Jiang family held a special dinner.As the eldest lady of the Jiang family, Jiang Jiayue excitedly took the invitation card and went to the Zhan Group to look for Zhan Mingxi that afternoon.

"Ms. Zhan, Miss Jiang said I have something to ask you." Zhan Mingxi, who was working at his desk, glanced at Jiang Jiayue who was walking in from the outside, and raised his hand to signal his assistant to leave. bring.

"What's the matter?" Zhan Mingxi, who lowered his eyes and continued to review, ignored the fiery eyes that fell on him from the beginning to the end, but devoted himself to his busy work.

Recently, the Zhan Group has been actively looking for partners overseas, and naturally there will be another mountain of documents on his desk.

"I don't know, did my dad call you to say that Jiang's family held a banquet tonight, and the daughters of the young masters from all walks of life have received invitations one after another. I want you to go too, so I specially left one and rushed over to give it to you " Jiang Jiayue's eyes were shining brightly, and she put the invitation in her purse on the corner of the desk as she spoke.

"Actually, Dad also said that he hasn't seen you for a long time. He wants to take this opportunity to catch up with you. If possible, come as soon as you can." Jiang Jiayue, who was afraid that Zhan Mingxi would reject her, subconsciously moved her father Come out and talk to Zhan Mingxi.

After all, she felt that the weight of an elder was enough for him to seriously consider participating in the banquet tonight. As for herself, she didn't have anything better to say.

The golden border set off the festive atmosphere of the wine red tone, and there was a line of characters written in the center of the invitation card. Zhan Mingxi didn't look at it carefully, but just glanced over one by one, and then fell into a short thought.

If it was his intention, of course he would not hesitate to take advantage of his busy work to reject this hypocritical dinner, but Jiang Jiayue is not a simple woman.He was afraid that if he did this, if he offended her, he might vent his anger on that stupid woman, Gu Qiqi.

Most importantly, he was afraid that Gu Qiqi would make her angry again because of the matter between them.

After weighing the two, Zhan Mingxi reluctantly put the invitation in his hand, and responded to her expressionlessly: "Dinner, I will go. If there is nothing else, maybe Miss Jiang can left."

Zhan Mingxi, who ordered Jiang Jiayue to evict him openly and secretly, didn't even look at Jiang Jiayue standing in front of him.

Jiang Jiayue, who inevitably looked a little disappointed, lowered her eyes and looked at her well-dressed makeup and clothing today.I thought that Zhan Mingxi would see a brand new self and her eyes would shine, but the reality often made her bitter.

"Okay, then Mingxi, see you tonight." Jiang Jiayue hastily cleaned up her dissatisfaction, smiled at him, stepped on ten centimeter high heels, and disappeared into the huge office.

She believed that as long as Gu Qiqi could completely disappear in their world, one day Zhan Mingxi would turn around and return to her obediently.

As the sound of the high heels and the ground gradually faded away, the office fell into silence again, and the "rustling" sound of the pen scratching the paper could be vaguely heard.

It was such a quiet environment that made Zhan Mingxi, who was a little irritable, calm down again, and deal with one document after another carefully.

"Hey, if you are free now, help me go to the mall to buy a dress and high heels. In the evening, I will take Qiqi to the Jiang family's dinner party."

I thought that he would solve the problem by agreeing to the banquet in front of Jiang Jiayue.

But he, who was worried about Gu Qiqi's emotions, chose to take Gu Qiqi to Jiang's dinner party tonight.

This way, Jiang Jiayue could understand that there was no possibility between him and her.Secondly, he also wanted Gu Qiqi to have a sense of security in his relationship with her.
