Arrogant CEO Bullies His Wife - C284
Gu Ruoyun listened to the music with boredom. Looking at the dancing posture of those people, she smiled lightly and looked at the wounds on her arms. Although they were covered up with foundation powder, the scars still showed faintly.
“Miss Gu Ruoqing, can I buy you a drink?” At this moment, a well-dressed man sat beside Gu Ruoqing. He placed a glass of red wine in front of her, his hoarse voice magnetic and low. It was obvious that he had long heard of her name.
Gu Ruoqing raised her head slightly. When she saw him, she was a little surprised. It was obvious that he was a foreigner, but he spoke Chinese fluently. At first, she thought he was Chinese.
“You are …” Gu Ruoyun was a little surprised. She seemed to have seen him somewhere before, but she couldn’t recall where. It seemed like a long time had passed, but also seemed like a short time ago.
“Miss Gu is really forgetful, we’ve met before, my name is George.” George wasn’t surprised that Gu Ruoyun didn’t remember him. He and Gu Ruoyun had indeed met once, so perhaps she didn’t notice his existence at that time.
Back in Europe, he was the one who ordered Gu Ruoyun to be kidnapped. A month had passed since then, and he believed that Gu Ruoyun had already forgotten about it.
“I’m sorry, I don’t have a good memory.” Gu Ruoyun didn’t try to get close to him. She only felt that his gaze was a little strange, with a pair of bright and spirited eyes that made people frightened upon seeing it. Especially his deep eyes, which had some complex emotions within, which made her want to escape.
She had no impression of him, not even when he came to talk to her. He allowed his intuition to tell him that this man had not come with good intentions, even in a situation like this.
A trace of craftiness flashed past Gu Ruoyun’s eyes. She stood up and bowed her head towards him, “However, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
She drank a cup of wine while George looked at Gu Ruoyun’s refreshed appearance. The corners of his mouth slightly curled up as he watched her finish the red wine in the cup. However, he lightly sipped on it.
“Excuse me.” She turned around and left with large strides. Her steps were somewhat anxious, as if there was someone chasing after her from behind.
She did not swallow the red wine in her mouth. On a certain corner of the balcony, she spat out all the other wine in her mouth. The moment she turned her head, she spat the wine on top of her dress.
The smell wasn’t right. Although this medicine didn’t have any scent, Gu Ruoyun was much more sensitive than the others. The man suddenly spoke up, although he didn’t remember who he was and the aura on his body told her that this person would definitely harm her.
“How is it?” At this moment, Ruo Zi Xuan looked at Gu Ruoyun’s departing figure. She walked over from a corner and stood shoulder to shoulder with George. The two of them pretended not to know each other. She had her back to George as they chatted.
George elegantly held the wine cup, his deep eyes staring at the kiss mark on her neck. He pursed his lips and smiled sinisterly, “Drink.”
Ruo Zi Xuan looked towards the direction Gu Ruoyun was heading in. He smiled lightly as he drank the red wine in his cup. He turned around slightly and noticed that there was no one in the crowd. However, he did not see Leng Liancheng.
“Go take a look at Nangong Yan and Leng Liancheng. Watch their actions tonight and don’t let them spoil my plans.” Ruo Zi ordered her in a low voice. George’s appearance tonight was also one of her plans.
As long as they obstructed her happiness, all of them would disappear. Gu Ruoyun’s arrival tonight had obviously surprised Ruoxing, but it hadn’t stopped her from carrying out her plans.
“Yes.” George looked deeply in the direction Gu Ruoyun had walked in. He turned around and continued to chat with some of the famous people around him whom he liked, but his mind was not on this.
He felt mixed emotions as he looked in the direction Ruo Zi Xuan left in. This woman started to play with him, but he developed true feelings for her, and as he watched her turn into someone else’s person, no matter how sexy and alluring the woman in his arms was, it couldn’t compare to even a thousandth of the woman Ruo Zi Xuan was holding in his arms.
Ruo Zixuan walked with graceful steps and nodded to the crowd. Some of the men approached her, but she politely refused them all.
“Miss Ruo, long time no see. Who would’ve thought that today’s meeting will be even more beautiful than before.” Nangong Yan suddenly appeared beside Ruo Zixuan, preventing her from moving forward.
Ruo Zixuan watched as Nangong Yan suddenly appeared. She was clearly a little surprised. Just a moment ago, she hadn’t even seen Nangong Yan, but now, he had already appeared in front of her.
Facing Nangong Yan or Leng Liancheng, there was an irresistible charm in them that made it impossible for her to reject them.
“Nangong Yan? I haven’t seen you for five years, how are you doing? ” Although she was surprised that he appeared in front of her, she still had to be polite.
She and Nangong Yan could be considered old friends. Because of Leng Liancheng, they had become friends.
“How about, a dance?” Nangong Yan looked at her somewhat anxious expression. The normally polite and elegant Ruo Zi Xuan rarely revealed such an expression. He only pretended not to understand as he stepped forward to block her path.
Even though she was in China now, she could not forget to be polite. Furthermore, every move she made now meant that she would make a headlines and she must not let her family lose face.
“What is it? Not giving face? ” Nangong Yan was a little disappointed. Seeing that Ruo Zi Xuan did not move, his tone became a little more serious.
She could not understand what Nangong Yan was trying to do or why he would appear at this critical juncture. He was a little unhappy in his heart, but he still pretended to be excited. Putting his red wine cup to the side, he walked onto the dance floor together with Nangong Yan.
Ruo Zixuan frowned. The two of them were on the dance floor, while the other dancers all opened up a path. Nangong Yan hugged Ruo Zixuan’s slender waist, looking a little absent-minded.
Leng Liancheng sat on the sofa at the side and watched Nangong Yan and Ruozi dance. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly. Before Gu Ruoyun arrived, he had already discovered her figure and did not go forward to ask.
Controlling his emotions meant that there were many things between him and her that he could no longer return to. Gu Ruoyun choosing to appear together with Nangong Yan made him much calmer. He sat by the side and drank alone. Many famous figures from the society came to tempt him, but they all left him unmoved.
“Go, ask Miss Ruo Zixuan to come over.” At this time, Leng Liancheng saw a waiter carrying some fruit juice over. He raised one of his hands and flicked his finger. The moment the waiter saw that it was Leng Liancheng, his expression changed slightly and respectfully replied. He then moved to the side.
It just so happened that Ruo Zi Xuan had just finished dancing with Nangong Yan and was walking out of the dance floor, when a waiter walked up to her and said, “Miss Ruo, please, Master Leng.”
