Chapter 98: He Came to Pick Her Up
Lin Yu said he would be back on Friday evening, and and that he would her the details then, so Gu Chu invited him to dinner and offered to pick him up from the airport which he agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Chu thought about it and called Feng Jia.
He was in the middle of an online meeting, listening to a report. When he saw Gu Chu’s call, he muted the video.
The manager continued speaking, unaware that Mr. Feng had already muted him.
“Chuchu.” Feng Jia turned his back to the screen and answered the phone.
Gu Chu asked, “Are you free tonight? I remember that you are a member of Jia Ren Club, there seems to be a party tonight and I am quite interested, can you take me there?”
She paused for a moment and added, “Of course, if you’re not free, it’s ok, I’ll go ask my dad.”
Feng Jia pinched his brow and asked, “If I go, will you come back with me tonight?”
Instead of answering, Gu Chu asked, “If I say I won’t, then you won’t take me even if you’re free?”
Feng Jia smiled, “I have a condition.”
“Say it.”
“I choose the dress.”
“Okay, send it to my apartment.”
Gu Chu left work early at five o’clock, then went back to the apartment and took a shower. At about six thirty, the dress was delivered.
She had to admit that she liked his taste.
The plum-colored halter dress had a deep V-neck, was backless and the front was adorned with sequins. After wearing it, one would look sexy and flashy.
She put on makeup, curled her hair, and at 7:30 p.m., he came to pick her up on time.
Gu Chu opened the door, Feng Jia was wearing a dark blue suit standing at her doorway. Their eyes met.
She stopped and winked at him.
Feng Jia’s expression was always cold, but she still caught a glimpse of amazement in the bottom of his eyes.
He opened the box in his hands, and inside lay a pair of sapphire earrings.
He took them out, placed the box in her hand, and put the earrings on her.
Under the light, they glittered.
He whispered in her ear, “I stopped at three shops before I picked these, they really suit you.”
Gu Chu was a little surprised: “You went to pick them out yourself?”
“Yes.”
He picked out the pair of earrings among the dazzling array jewelry. T
The corners of Gu Chu’s mouth curved lightly. Indeed they looked good.
The requirements to become a member of Jia Ren Club were high. All members had to be referred by existing members.
When Gu Chu just returned to the country, she wanted to join and applied for their membership, but because she did not meet the wealth standard, she was rejected.
He drove the same Mayback as he always did.
The driver was waiting by the car. Gu Chu was about to lift hem of her skirt when Feng Jia bent down and did it for her.
When they got into the car, he asked, “Why are you interested in the party?”
Gu Chu said honestly, “Because Chairman Wang will also be there.”
There is nothing to hide, after all, he would know when he sees him there.
Feng Jia’s eyes sank. “This is the second time you’re using me.”
Gu Chu felt guilty for a moment but soon she said righteously, “If you do well tonight, I’ll come back with you.”
Recently in Haicheng City had been raining at night, and tonight was no exception. It was drizzling just as they arrived.
The waiter greeted them with a black umbrella, “Mr. Feng, Miss Gu, good evening.”
Gu Chu raised her eyebrows, it was not surprising for them to know Feng Jia since he was a member, but how did he know her?
Were they so professional that they knew her because she was with Feng Jia?
It can’t be because she’s the “flower of Haicheng City” as Meng Lang said, right?
Feng Jia held Gu Chu with one hand and took the umbrella with the other, reminding her, “Be careful when you walk.”
Gu Chu nodded.
The place was elegant. It was an old mansion hidden in a quiet and deep alley.
The black lacquer door and the two lanterns hanging under the eaves seemed inconspicuous at first glance, but it was different the moment one stepped inside.
There small bridges, fountains, nine curved corridors, with rockery and trees.
It was supposed to be late autumn when trees withered, but there was lush greenery here. It was clear that the gardener put a lot of effort into it.
