My Mr. Gu is Courting Death Again - Chapter 685

Chapter 685: Would You Even Understand What Love Is? (1)

Xu Weilai was smart and rational. Moreover, she had one of the most fatal advantages… she had the ability to unknowingly worm her way into your heart. She would already have her place in your heart before you even knew it.

It was not the fact that she wasn’t a good woman, but one should not get too close to her before they got to know her background and intention.

However, from what Qiao Chu witnessed tonight, Mr. Zuo had let his guard down around the drunk Xu Weilai. This was extremely bad.

It would be fine if she had come to his side sincerely, but what if she wasn’t?

He only hoped that Mr. Zuo really knew what he was doing and would always be alert and clear-headed like he had said. That was because…he could not afford to lose.

–

The next morning.

Xu Weilai woke up with a splitting headache.

She stared blankly at the ceiling and was in a daze for quite a while as she waited for the memories from the previous night to return. She suddenly sat up from the bed and scratched her hair in frustration.

Oh my god, what has she done?

Although she would get drunk occasionally, as long as she was not too drunk, she would not blackout. Now that she recalled what had happened last night, she wished she a blackout instead. Else, she would not be so embarrassed and ashamed.

She still had to work together with her Big Boss from time to time. but how could she faced him after she flirted with him and even made him put on her shoes when she was drunk. She had also spouted nonsense.

If she was given a second chance, she would definitely go straight back to her apartment and slept through the night when she got drunk. Then, she would not have had such a drunken fit.

However, even if she was in extreme regret over what she had done, she couldn’t turn back time. Things that were done could not be undone, and there was no point crying over spilled milk. She could only face the reality.

She would have to act dumb all the way in front of her Big Boss and pretended that she could not remember anything. That would be the best way to avoid embarrassment.

After that, Xu Weilai got up went for her wash up. She took her breakfast and then left for work.

The incident at the cocktail party yesterday was already in the morning news with the headline, “Gu Yu in Love with Zuo Si, the Gu Corporation and Zuo Corporation Marriage Alliance Confirmed, the Ex-Wife Xu Weilai Got Drunk From Broken-Hearted”.

There was even a photo of her with tears trailing down her face. That was the photo of her standing quietly at the corner with a drop of a crystal-clear tear falling. She wasn’t crying bitterly, but this single drop of tear, coupled with her pitiful appearance, was enough to gain sympathy.

Although the newspapers did not criticize Gu Yu’s behavior, there were already waves of disapproval on Weibo. The Weibo post that Gu Yu had previously made was once again “favorited” by the netizens, and the number of comments sky-rocketed.

Gu Yu’s image plummeted, and even the stock price began to fluctuate in the stock market.

Yesterday’s drama was still effective. At least Gu Yu would not be announcing his marriage with Zuo Si in the meantime. Otherwise, if he were to make the announcement and if that caused the stock price to plummet, he would not be able to answer to the Board of Directors unless he tendered his resignation.

Xu Weilai arrived at the company and sat at her desk. She glanced towards Zuo An’s office and saw that he was already inside. If the incident from the previous night never happened, she could still go in and share the good news with him. But now…she was not prepared to face him yet.

Well, she would delay it as long as she could then.

The internal phone line rang in the very next second. Xu Weilai spontaneously picked it up. Zuo An’s gentle and elegant voice came from the other end, “Weilai, bring me a cup of coffee.”
