Gu Anxi herself twisted open a bottle of water and slowly drank it. Qin Han and Wang Keru couldn’t guess what she was thinking. Wang Keru, in particular, was very uneasy and said softly, "Anxi, this time Mom is sincerely inviting you to a meal. It’s your 20th birthday, after all. If you don’t come back, people will say the Qin family treats you harshly."
Gu Anxi chuckled, "Uncle Qin treats me well! There’s nothing wrong. I won’t say a single bad thing about the Qin family to outsiders." (Author’s whisper: The little one only acts and doesn’t boast!)
She paused for a moment, a faint smile playing on her lips, "And an eight-tier cake, can it fit at home?"
Qin Han, as expected from his experience in the business world, calmly said, "This time was a bit rushed, but rest assured, Anxi, once things between you and Siyuan are settled, Uncle will definitely host a hundred-table banquet. The spectacle will only be grander than yesterday’s."
Gu Anxi spat out a mouthful of water.
Wang Keru was also stunned. Hadn’t Qin Siyuan and Shen Wanqing already slept together? Although in the past she had Anxi try to win him back, now that it was a foregone conclusion, she wouldn’t let her daughter have someone else’s leftovers, would she...
So she tugged Qin Han’s arm. But Qin Han’s thinking was very cunning and worldly-wise. Verbal promises can be recanted at any time, so why take them seriously! Of course, if Gu Anxi truly had value, Siyuan would definitely choose Anxi.
As he was making such calculations, Feng Mian, who was standing to the side, felt his eyes had been opened. This maneuvering is outrageously slick!
After last night’s incident at Zhenyuan, everyone knew Gu Anxi had someone backing her, but no one was sure of the relationship. Bo Xichen, who always kept a low profile, naturally wouldn’t step forward. This Qin Han truly had guts and a meticulous mind; he was even willing to sell out his own son.
Just as Feng Mian was about to speak, Bo Xichen came out from the laboratory. He had already changed into a sharp black suit. He looked stylish and chic; his broad shoulders, slim waist, and long legs made him stand out wherever he went.
Wang Keru dared not look down on him anymore. What the nurse had mentioned the other day about hundreds of hospitals belonging to this Dr. Bo might be true. Perhaps last night’s grand spectacle was also his doing...
As if sensing the meaning in her gaze, Bo Xichen sat down gracefully and smiled faintly, "I wasn’t the one who set off fireworks and arranged the helicopter for Anxi last night. That person and Anxi only share a passing acquaintance; it’s not what you imagine."
His gaze was gentle, devoid of any sharpness. He even looked at Qin Han with a faint smile as he said, "Mr. Qin, Gu Anxi is just an ordinary intern by my side, with a monthly salary of fifteen thousand. If she doesn’t perform well, I’ll have to make deductions. Just now, she shot her boss a look... By the way, regarding that influential figure—Elder He knows him. He’s from Beicheng and has a fiancée, so it has nothing to do with Gu Anxi. It was just a young master from a prestigious family acting on a whim. Mr. Qin, you really don’t need to take it so seriously. It would be better if Young Master Qin were a bit more devoted. Being too fickle isn’t a good thing. Don’t you agree, Mr. Qin?"
He really showed him some respect by using the formal ’you’, but that didn’t necessarily mean there wasn’t any mockery in his tone!
Feng Mian almost burst out laughing. Dr. Bo is incredible! All he had to do was mention Gu Changqing to easily dispel Qin Han’s ideas. Young Master Gu is so useful! However, why did Bo Xichen’s words sound so tinged with jealousy, so full of possessiveness?
His words indeed had an effect, and Qin Han believed him. This belief stemmed from Gu Anxi’s appearance; indeed, any man who saw her would want to make her his own.
