Chapter 15: Blinded His Eyes
"Oh, he's here too." Lin Yue'er asked casually.
"He is Ai Jiang of the Second Department, so the Second Department will definitely bring him along! Oh right, I heard that General Manager Gu will also be coming later."
Lin Yue'er's footsteps paused, "Gu Wangchuan? Is he coming too?"
"Yes." Yang Liu nodded, smiling and winking at her, "He's here, the minister is overjoyed! With President Gu as our patron, our minister can keep his wallet safe this time."
As soon as she heard that Gu Wangchuan was coming, Lin Yue'er's previous hesitation disappeared, and she stood at the entrance of the hall, hesitating and not wanting to go in.
She remembered very clearly that when she first joined GL, Gu Wangchuan had sternly warned her that even if they met in the company, she should obediently take a detour to avoid dirtying his eyes.
It's not that she dislikes meeting people, but she sticks to her own business and usually just stays in the research department, never going out casually. Like yesterday's encounter in the elevator, it was just bad luck, and there's nothing she can do about it.
"Xiao Yue, what are you doing standing there? Why don't you go in?" Yang Liu had no idea what was on her mind, and pulled her along as they walked inside. "I scouted ahead for you earlier, and the number of demons who like Zheng Yuhao is few. You'd better behave yourself and not always put on that 'don't come near me' expression! If you scare off this high-quality man, I don't think you'll find another one as good!"
The hall was filled with people, and as the main character of today's event, none of the first-year students were absent. The rest were from other departments, chatting in twos and threes. As Lin Yueer walked further in, she became more and more withdrawn, and whenever she thought of Gu Wangchuan's face, she didn't have the mood to face anyone.
She pulled Yang Liu, "Yang Liu, I suddenly remembered, I still have something on, I can't..."
"Stop!" Yang Liu turned back and gave her a fierce glance, "This is a big deal, you have to put it aside!"
"I..." Lin Yue'er was about to make another excuse, when she saw a tall and handsome man walking towards her from afar, smiling as he greeted her, "Xiao Yue,"
Zheng Yuhao smiled and gazed at the girl in front of him, who looked pure and innocent. In this grand hall, she was not the most beautiful, but she was the one who caught his eye the most.
He also couldn't tell why, maybe it was because of her clear and bright eyes like a spring; or maybe it was because of her beautiful face that shone without makeup. Anyway, since she first entered the company, he had been captivated by this quiet girl's appearance.
Yang Liu's eyes lit up, and she turned her body to bump into her, "Xiao Yue? So affectionate? You little girl, when did you make progress without saying a word, making us worry for nothing!" Then, she deliberately said loudly, "Xiao Yue, I'll go over there to get something to eat, you guys chat."
Excitedly winking at her, Yang Liu quickly flashed away, leaving Lin Yue'er standing helplessly in place.
"Xiao Yue, you look... really beautiful today." Zheng Yuhao's handsome face turned slightly red after he finished speaking.
"Thank you," Lin Yue'er smiled lightly at Zheng Yuhao, her entire being exuding a calm and gentle aura, like a lotus flower emerging from the water, purely beautiful and touching.
Zheng Yuhao's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly became a bit more restrained, but his eyes grew even more ardent. "I'll go get some food for you to eat, wait a minute, I'll be right back."
He left, and Lin Yue found a quiet corner to stay as unobtrusive as possible, hoping that she could remain there until the party ended, which would be for the best.
