Li Yu walked to Jiang Ling’er’s side and looked at him gently and dotingly.
“What is it?” Li Yu asked.
“CEO Li, long time no see. You’ve grown taller again, haven’t you?” Jiang Ling’er said mischievously.
Li Yu was speechless. What was Jiang Ling’er planning?
Gu Hanhan was speechless, and she suddenly had a bad feeling. What kind of relationship did Li Yu and Jiang Ling’er have? Boyfriend and girlfriend? However, they didn’t seem that way! Were they brother and sister? That doesn’t look like it, either!
Jiang Ling’er glanced at Gu Hanhan and said, “Miss Gu told me that the Li family and Gu family have a marriage alliance. I wished for her to enter the Li family as soon as possible. Other than that, Miss Gu told me that my engagement before this was already broken off, and that I should stay away from being so close to the Li family’s son to avoid any misunderstandings.”
Jiang Ling’er deliberately paused for a moment and continued, “However, the person closest to me right now is you, Li Yu. If you’re Miss Gu’s marriage partner, it’s indeed inappropriate for me to be so close to you. So I wanted to ask, are you the person who is going to marry her?”
Li Yu directly said, “Of course not,”
The onlookers were in an uproar, and Gu Hanhan’s face turned pale.
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “That’s for the best. If any misunderstandings happen, then I won’t be taking the blame. Alright, the problem is solved. CEO Li, you can go and do your own things.”
“I’m fine as long as I’m by your side,” Li Yu said with a frown.
“Miss Gu, do you have any objections?” Jiang Ling’er asked as she glanced at Gu Hanhan.
“CEO Li is always so free. How could I have any objections?” Gu Hanhan said awkwardly.
Li Yu looked at Gu Hanhan coldly and said, “At the dinner party, you deliberately approached me and asked someone to take photos from an angle. That was how the marriage between the Li and Gu family was confirmed. This time, should we find another angle to take photos and continue with the news?”
Gu Hanhan said nervously, “No, I…”
At this moment, she felt very awkward. In front of so many big shots and celebrities, Jiang Ling’er and Li Yu had exposed her like this.
“Please don’t misunderstand, CEO Li,” Gu Hanhan said. “Those photos and evidence were done with malicious intent. It had nothing to do with our Gu family.”
Li Yu still said coldly, “In that case, Miss Gu, you must think twice before you speak. Don’t just say things casually. Otherwise, others will laugh at you. If that happens, the Gu family will be the one to lose face.”
At this moment, Gu Wu walked over and looked at Li Yu apologetically. He said, “I’m very sorry, CEO Li,” Gu Wu said. Our Hanhan drank too much and got a little muddle-headed. Please excuse us.”
Wen Nuan askedin confusion, “Huh? She drank too much when the banquet had just started?”
“Maybe she can’t handle alcohol,” said Jiang Ling’er with a smile.
“Even if you drink too much, you still should keep your mouth shut,” Li Yu said coldly. “I have a bad temper. Don’t wait for me to make a move before claiming that I’m going overboard.”
Gu Wu replied, “Don’t worry, CEO Li. This will never happen again.”
“It’d be best if there isn’t.” Li Yu nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he looked at Jiang Ling’er. He asked, “Boss, are you satisfied with how I handled this matter?”
The crowd was in an uproar again. CEO Li actually called Jiang Ling’er ‘Boss’? What was going on?
Everyone immediately looked at Jiang Ling’er.
Shelooked at the puzzled gazes of the people around her, finding them funny. However, in order to avoid misunderstandings, she nodded cooperatively. She replied, “Yes, you did well. You have to deal with issues like this as soon as possible in the future. Don’t wait until one pops up first before you deal with it. After all, things can easily worsen.”
“Understood,” Li Yu said solemnly. “I’ll follow your instructions.”
Jiang Ling’er nodded and replied, “Alright, that’s all. You can leave now.”
Li Yu raised his eyebrows and said seriously, “As a qualified security guard, I can’t stay far away from you. I was a little distant just now. If Miss Gu makes a move, I won’t be able to protect you in time.”
Jiang Ling’er felt a little awkward. What was he planning?
She replied, “Then I’ll just give you a night off today,”
Li Yu immediately answered, “But I want the Full Attendance Award, so I don’t want a night off,”
She replied seriously, “Don’t worry, I won’t deduct this from your attendance,”
“Boss, I’m worried about leaving you alone,” Li Yu said with a smile.
The corner of Jiang Ling’er’s mouth twitched. She thought to herself, ‘If I continue to nag, I’ll have to deal with Li Yu even more.’
Wen Nuan wanted to laugh when she saw the two of them like this. She knew that Jiang Ling’er didn’t want others to misunderstand their relationship, but if the two of them continued like this, it would definitely arouse everyone’s suspicion..
