“That, Cough.”

Su Rui tried her best to maintain an expression on her face.

“I misunderstood.”

“Because the purpose of the previous meeting was with the intention of a blind date. So, I thought that since you came, you had marriage in mind.”

“In the previous encounter, I thought that you were not bad so I decided to try to get to know you better.”

As he heard what Su Rui had said, Gu Yu Cheng was stunned for a moment and his eyes flashed with surprise.

Looking at Su Rui who was in front of him with an expression of seriousness, Gu Yu Cheng’s adam apple bopped and wanted to speak.

“Sorry, I…”

“No No, it is just a misunderstanding. You don’t have to feel sorry.”

When Su Rui heard what Gu Yu Cheng said, she thought and adjusted herself, and replied, “Regarding this misunderstanding, actually, it is sort of embarrassing.”

“If I have troubled, disturbed, or caused you trouble in this period of time, I’m very sorry. I hope you will understand.”

“In addition, regarding this situation, it could be a misunderstanding between the parents. When I return home, I will inform my mother properly. For Mrs Gu, it would be better if you explained to her. If you need me to explain, you can look for me as well.”

Su Rui voiced out what she thought in her head.

It wasn’t because she didn’t want to give Gu Yu Cheng a chance to speak .

But it was because Su Rui didn’t dare to stop, she was scared that once she paused, the words that were in her head wouldn’t be expressed clearly.

After she had said it, Su Rui raised her head and looked at Gu Yu Cheng in front of her.

Other than being a little surprised and stupefied, Su Rui didn’t manage to see through Gu Yu Cheng’s expressionless face, and she just thought that he agreed tacitly.

After she thought about it, what she had just said should be clear, and nothing should have been left out. Su Rui looked at Gu Yu Cheng.

“Then,” she paused and continued, “that would be all then. I wouldn’t want to delay Chairman Gu’s work. Goodbye.”

At this moment, Su Rui has changed Gu Yu Cheng’s address to “Chairman Gu”

As for goodbye[1].

Heh-heh.

Su Rui would love to not meet him again.

It’s mainly because it’s too embarrassing.

Su Rui sort of experienced what Tang Xiao mentioned at the banquet. It was regarding the blind date, especially when the blind date was a failure, and why she had an expression like she had met a creditor.

After she had said it, Su Rui nodded towards Gu Yu Cheng, immediately by-passed him and left without turning back.

“…” As Gu Yu Cheng saw Su Rui’s back, he wanted to say something to stop her.

But, Su Rui’s words kept repeating in his head.

It appeared that what she said wasn’t wrong.

Gu Yu Cheng pursed his lips and looked away.

It was just that his heart felt like something had left, and it was rather empty.

Su Rui walked calmly and gracefully.

Of course, if you didn’t see her facial expression that was showing that it was so embarrassing till her grandma’s house[2].

When she stepped out of the main door, she guessed that Gu Yu Cheng wouldn’t see her expression, Su Rui then changed from walking briskly to jogging back.

“What’s wrong, Miss Su?” As the driver that was waiting outside saw Su Rui running out of the company with a rather bad expression, the driver asked worriedly.

He thought, was Miss Su wronged by the young master just now?

“Nothing.”

“Erm, please drive me back to the Su house.”

“Alright.” The driver didn’t ask anymore questions after hiding his suspicion and started the car.

That’s it?

As Gu Yu Cheng saw that Su Rui left without turning back, Gu Yu Cheng’s heart felt a trace of oddness.

Obviously, according to Gu Yu Cheng’s knowledge, he didn’t think that Su Rui would leave so easily.

But, that girl is all the while different from other girls, isn’t she?

Gu Yu Cheng’s eyes turned dim, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.

Just then, Wang Zhou walked quickly towards Gu Yu Cheng.

“Eh? Miss Su has already left?” Wang Zhou looked at Gu Yu Cheng, then the direction of the main door and asked.

“What’s the problem?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.

“Oh, it’s nothing much. It’s just this. I saw that it was left on the Chairman’s desk and I wanted to ask Miss Su whether she could take it back on the way.” Wang Zhou said.

As Gu Yu Cheng heard it, his eyes were on the vacuum flask, and his eyes moved.

“Pass it to me. I will bring it back.” After saying, Gu Yu Cheng took the vacuum flask from Wang Zhou’s hands and walked quickly towards the outside of the company.

However, when Gu Yu Cheng carried the vacuum flask, Su Rui had already left in Gu’s family car.

After a while, when Wang Zhou saw that the chairman carried the barrel back, he subconsciously asked, “Miss Su has already left…”

As he was halfway, Wang Zhou froze and didn’t dare to continue asking.

Because he found out that their chairman is in a bad mood now?
