Chapter 230 - Dinner with Gu Siting
Chapter 230: Dinner with Gu Siting
On the outskirts of the West Capital, evening had come.
There was a luxurious European-style mansion that stood out clearly against the evening glow of the sun.
In the study, Gu Siting had been sitting there for over an hour, watching two videos that played repeatedly on the computer.
One of the videos was of Gu Weiwei ballet dancing in school and the other was her playing the piano against Zhou Linna.
The butler knocked at the door and asked, as he stepped in, “Sir, Miss. Ling asks when the dinner shall start?”
Gu Siting checked the time. “They are not here yet?”
“They just called and said that they are on their way.”
Gu Siting nodded without saying anything more as he continued to watch the videos.
The butler asked out of curiosity, “What are you watching, Sir?”
Gu Siting let out a long sigh as he watched the girl playing the piano.
“I don’t know what I want to find from her.”
The butler did not ask anything more and went to check on the dinner preparations instead.
Half an hour later, Kuroda Shio brought them into the mansion and came to the study.
“Sir, the guests are here.”
Gu Siting switched off the video on his computer, got up and left the study to go downstairs.
Gu Weiwei was sitting in the living room anxiously. The familiar environment had made her distressed and anxious.
She had not even noticed that Gu Siting had come downstairs.
Gu Siting smiled and said, “Miss. Mu, I don’t mean any harm. I am just apologizing for what I did yesterday.”
“Mr. Gu, you have already expressed your apology.”
Gu Siting said, “But you did not use the check.”
Fu Shiyi turned an astonished look at the girl next to him.
What on earth had happened between her and Gu Siting?!
Why was he asking her to dinner and giving her a check?
And, that bodyguard even told her to join Yaoshi Media!
Damn, this Gu person was not trying to steal her from his brother, was he?
“It was just a misunderstanding.”
Gu Weiwei looked calm and peaceful.
The moment she walked into the room, she realized that nothing about her remained.
Most of the things were now Ling Yan’s.
Any old traces of her living here previously had been removed, just as if it had always been Ling Yan who had lived here all along.
After she had finished speaking, Ling Yan came downstairs wearing a plain-looking dress and took the seat next to Gu Siting.
“Nice to see you again, Miss. Mu.”
The butler and the servants started to serve the dishes, each of which were all exquisite French food made by highly skilled chefs.
“Miss. Ling said that I look like your best friend Gu Weiwei, where is she anyways?”
Gu Weiwei showed a light smile, concealing all of her hidden emotions.
“She…” Ling Yan’s smile stiffened.
“Eat first, the food will taste bad if it gets cold.”
Having said these words, Gu Siting picked up his knife and fork and started to eat.
Gu Weiwei and Fu Shiyi exchanged a look and picked up their knives and forks too, hoping that they could leave as soon as the food was finished.
Gu Siting picked up the red wine and sipped it as he asked, “Miss. Mu, have you ever thought about starting a career here in A Land?”
“Have you asked me for permission before you try to steal her away?” Fu Shiyi snorted.
Gu Siting raised an eyebrow as he asked Gu Weiwei, “Boyfriend?”
Gu Weiwei sipped on the wine without saying a word.
If she nodded, Fu Hanzheng would be displeased.
If she shook her head, Gu Siting would easily understand that she was related to Fu Hanzheng in some way, especially when Fu Shiyi became so anxious about his behavior.
Gu Siting sized up the two of them, seemingly believing that she was Fu Shiyi’s girlfriend after all.
“Miss. Mu plays the piano quite well.”
Gu Weiwei pursed her lips – it seemed that she had been investigated.
What was he up to anyways?
Gu Siting swirled the wine in the glass slightly and said, “Could you play one song for us here, Miss. Mu?”
