Mr Gu s First Doting Marriage

Chapter 768: Chapter 769: I Just Can’t Stand Others Bullying You

Of course, Xia Yangyang was not oblivious to Gu Qichen’s intentions.

It was merely a warning to Lin Yuanyuan, making clear that he was her backer.

However, Xia Yangyang felt that this approach could backfire.

Xia Yangyang rose, lifted her wine glass and said to Gu Qichen, “President Gu, I toast to you.”

Gu Qichen simply smiled, clinked glasses with Xia Yangyang, and finished his wine in one gulp.

Everyone at the table saw.

President Gu was really giving face to Xia Yangyang.

Earlier, every time someone initiated a toast, President Gu merely sipped his wine, but when Xia Yangyang made the toast, he drank the whole glass!

Moreover, such an important task as conceiving the promotional copy was given to her.

While it was undeniable that Xia Yangyang was impressive as an overseas student, she was still a newbie at the television station.

Wouldn’t snagging such a big project be like gaining a windfall from heaven?

Everyone could see that the Director’s face had darkened.

It seemed that Xia Yangyang was going to be in trouble again.

After dinner, everyone began to take their leave, one after another.

Xia Yangyang had intended to leave with the others.

However, Gu Qichen had firmly seized her hand.

Xia Yangyang quickly withdrew her hand, glancing around. Fortunately, no one had seen.

A smirk appeared on the corners of Gu Qichen’s mouth.

But, Lin Yuanyuan had witnessed this scene.

She clenched her fists.

It was evident that Gu Qichen was still intensely interested in his ex-wife.

However, Lin Yuanyuan was not certain if Gu Qichen was acting on a sudden impulse or trying to toy with Xia Yangyang.

Regardless, the way Gu Qichen was eyeing Xia Yangyang was certainly aggravating.

Lin Yuanyuan intentionally walked up to Xia Yangyang: “Xiao Xia, you can’t drive after drinking. My driver is outside, let’s go together. I’ll have him drop you off.”

Just as Xia Yangyang was about to decline.

Gu Qichen spoke up, “Director Lin, you go ahead. Miss Xia and I need to discuss the promotional copy.”

Gu Qichen sounded very casual, as though he really wanted to discuss work.

However, who would believe that?

Now it was already nearly ten o’clock, and he wanted to stay alone with Xia Yangyang to discuss work?

However, if Gu Qichen had set his mind on Xia Yangyang, with the intention of sleeping with her, she, Lin Yuanyuan, was powerless to intervene.

Although she felt annoyed, Lin Yuanyuan still took her leave.

Soon, only Gu Qichen and Xia Yangyang were left in the private room.

Xia Yangyang sighed, “Why do you do this?”

Gu Qichen had drunk quite a bit. Although his alcohol tolerance was good, a slight flush had appeared on his face, like a blush induced by slight intoxication.

When such a man looked up, he was like the poppy blooming in the night, exuding lethal attraction.

Gu Qichen sat there, pulled Xia Yangyang into his arms, and let her sit in his lap.

His face buried in the nape of Xia Yangyang’s fair and swan-like neck. His voice carried a hint of wine and childlike innocence: “I just can’t stand it when others bully you.”

Gu Qichen’s lips moved lightly around Xia Yangyang’s ear.

Xia Yangyang only felt a ticklish sensation, her ears turning red.

However, she couldn’t help saying, “Do you know your actions will only make my situation more complicated? Lin Yuanyuan won’t be deterred by you protecting me, instead, she will try even harder to thwart me, as it would remind her of past grievances. She is my superior, she can easily make life difficult for me.”

Gu Qichen’s voice was hoarse, but he didn’t seem to care: “If she dares to give you a hard time, I’ll have her removed from her position. Or, I could get you a higher position in the TV station, so that you could be the one in charge of her. Try learning how to make life difficult for others. It seems as if you lived too cleanly in your past life.”

Gu Qichen, what kind of thinking is that?

Xia Yangyang was both amused and exasperated.
