From the moment she called Jiang Yuan at the club, Xu Qingyao knew that this matter could not be hidden from Gu Peiran.

She puffed up her face and pretended not to hear him.

Just at this moment, Xu Qingyao's taxi also arrived. She hurriedly prepared to get in the car, but was pulled directly out by Gu Peiran.

"You haven't finished speaking yet. Where are you going to run to?"

"Mr. Gu, it's getting late now. As a single woman, I have to go back quickly. If anything happens, we can talk about it when we meet next time." Xu Qingyao raised the corners of her lips and showed her signature fake smile at Gu Peiran.

She bent down to get into the car again, but was pulled out by Gu Peiran again.

"If you and I are done with each other, close the car door if you don't want to get in the car!" The online ride-hailing driver was shaken twice and couldn't help but get a little angry.

"Sorry, she can't leave now." Gu Peiran replied politely.

He took out his wallet from his pocket and handed the driver five hundred yuan in cash, which was regarded as a high compensation for the breach of contract fee for canceling the order.

The driver changed his face on the spot, happily took the money, stepped on the accelerator and left.

Xu Qingyao was a little dumbfounded by Gu Peiran's silky banknotes.

She is the one who took a taxi...

Why didn't the driver ask her if she agreed?

Now that the car has driven away, Xu Qingyao has no choice but to stand on the side of the road and continue to listen to Gu Peiran's nonsense.

Gu Peiran saw that Xu Qingyao rolled her eyes and almost rolled her eyes to the sky, so she raised her hand and poked her forehead, "Miss Xu, I am not satisfied with the meal today, so..."

"Your repayment of 10,000 yuan is void."

"What?!" When Xu Qingyao mentioned money, she immediately became furious.

"Didn't I agree that if I have a meal with you, I can repay 10,000 yuan?!"

Gu Peiran spread out his hands calmly, "You said you were 'accompanying me' for dinner. Do you think you were able to accompany me tonight?"

"..." Xu Qingyao looked away guiltily.

Every time she couldn't speak up to Gu Peiran, she would start pretending to be dumb.

"But I don't want to embarrass you." Gu Peiran said, "As long as you accompany me to another place, I will count 10,000 yuan into your repayment."

"Okay! Then keep your word!"

After Xu Qingyao agreed, she followed Gu Peiran to the entrance of Juexing Hotel.

Xu Qingyao had an interview here before, but was questioned by Gu Peiran, who thought she was following him.

And now Gu Peiran personally led Xu Qingyao back here.

Of course Xu Qingyao would not naively think that Gu Peiran wanted to revisit his old place. She stopped at the door of the hotel and looked at Gu Peiran warily.

"You asked me to accompany you to another place, didn't you just want to trick me into booking a room with you?"

Gu Peiran glanced at her sarcastically, and said sarcastically, "You are dressed in such a sloppy way, do you think I can still be sexually interested in you?"

Xu Qingyao looked down at her sweatpants and slippers, and reluctantly felt relieved.

When she was still in the Gu family, as long as she didn't put on makeup and put on loose clothes, she would be immediately disliked by Gu Peiran.

Therefore, she needs to remain refined at all times and become the most beautiful lady in the villa.

Sometimes, Xu Qingyao felt that the nannies and aunties were more comfortable than she was.

I wonder if Zeng Yan would be like her when she was with Gu Peiran, worrying about her appearance and preparing for pregnancy every day.

Xu Qingyao's expression obviously darkened a bit.

Seeing that she was thinking about some messy things again, Gu Peiran suddenly asked, "Do you remember Qiao Yuanjia?"

"Remember...we have met several times before."

After receiving Xu Qingyao's affirmative reply, Gu Peiran didn't make any further detours and directly stated the purpose of bringing her here.

"Today is Qiao Yuanjia's birthday. He has booked the activity room here to hold a birthday party."

"I received the invitation a month ago and he asked me to take you to participate."

Xu Qingyao was still a little embarrassed, "I didn't prepare a gift, so I went directly to attend. Wouldn't it be good... How about you go by yourself..."

"I have already sent gifts." Gu Peiran replied calmly.

This time on Qiao Yuanjia's birthday, he donated two sets of shares in the tourist city in the names of Xu Qingyao and himself.

After receiving the gift, Qiao Yuanjia had been smiling for several weeks, wishing that he and Xu Qingyao could be treated as ancestors.

After all, the market value of the two groups of shares is estimated to be as high as 10 million yuan.

Xu Qingyao didn't know these things, but she still felt a little uncomfortable, so she chose a pair of diamond-encrusted cufflinks in the boutique of the Star Hotel.

Gu Peiran's eyes flashed across the cufflinks in the gift box, and he frowned slightly.

The hotel's activity room is on the top floor, including a swimming pool, billiards table, KTV and other recreational facilities.

Qiao Yuanjia also specially invited one of the top 100 foreign DJs to play DJs by the swimming pool.

The scene was crowded with beauties wearing swimsuits and sexy skirts, and the atmosphere was lively and hot.

When Xu Qingyao and Gu Peiran arrived, he was hugging a short-haired beauty and drinking very happily.

"Brother Gu! Sister-in-law! You are finally here!" Qiao Yuanjia let go of the beauty and came forward with a smile.

Gu Peiran nodded, responding to his greeting.

Xu Qingyao couldn't imitate his cold demeanor and hurriedly handed the gift she had prepared to Qiao Yuanjia.

"Yuanjia, I wish you a happy birthday."

Qiao Yuanjia was stunned for a moment, and did not reach out to pick it up immediately. Instead, he looked at Gu Peiran's reaction first.

Gu Peiran stood aside with a cold face, as if he acquiesced to Xu Qingyao's behavior.

Only then did he show his signature smile, and while accepting the gift from Xu Qingyao, he winked and said, "Thank you sister-in-law for the gift~"
