Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me
Chapter 316 - Chapter 316 Chapter 316 You Say Its Over Just Like That (4)

Chapter 316: Chapter 316: You Say It’s Over Just Like That? (4) Chapter 316: Chapter 316: You Say It’s Over Just Like That? (4) Linda was absolutely the most shocked upon hearing Lu Wanwan’s admission this time, because she had not expected Lu Wanwan to say such a thing in front of Gu Annan.

She sneakily glanced at the BOSS, and his expression seemed very subtle.

“You mentioned a former fiance last time,” Linda suddenly remembered her saying that Bai Lingyun was her former fiance’s cousin.

“Not exactly,” Lu Wanwan said dismissively, “You don’t know him. Let’s go.”

Gu Annan’s face suddenly froze into ice, and his gaze unreservedly fell upon her.

She instantly felt like a sieve, struck by a cold arrow.

Thinking back to her words, she hadn’t said anything wrong.

Her mother had indeed arranged an engagement for her before she passed away, and although it was always treated as a joke, she saw no harm in using it now.

It would at least keep Linda from incessantly bringing up Bai Lingyun in front of her, and might help to put that rumor to rest.

Just as Lu Wanwan was about to walk past Gu Annan, she tilted her head slightly, looked at him, and smiled brightly, “Mr. Gu, enjoy the holiday. I’m heading back now, goodbye.”

Even the chill that struck her heart when their gazes met did not cause her to retreat.

She admitted that, besides wanting to dispel the rumor, she did indeed have an ulterior motive.

Perhaps it was a thought that came to her when he was presumed to be single?

Lu Wanwan, with her bag on her back, arrived on the first floor. Clutching her phone and staring at Gu Annan’s name on the screen, she was uncertain whether to call or send a text message.

She leaned against the wall, rubbing her hair, feeling a bit worried.

If she were to send a text message, she didn’t even know how to start, so she eventually pressed the lock screen button.

She decided to go back and prepare first, then try giving him a call later.

Before she could leave, the elevator doors on the first floor opened, and a figure with a stern stride stepped out.

Listening to the footsteps, she lifted her head.

Gu Annan, seeing that she hadn’t left, was taken aback for a moment, then his face returned to its cold composure as he strode forward.

“Gu Annan,” Lu Wanwan thought he would just take a cold look at her and walk away. Just as she was about to say something, she didn’t expect him to close in directly on her.

He firmly grasped her wrist and, without a word, dragged her to the corner.

“What are you doing!” Her wrist hurt intensely from his grip, and she cried out in pain.

“I’m just concerned about how the boyfriend of a person who has recently been in a scandal with her boss feels,” he said coldly, his gaze burrowing into her, unsearchable depths in his clear pupils.

Lu Wanwan’s eyebrows tightened. “What does this have to do with you? Gu Annan, by what right do you meddle in my private life? Are you planning to use whether I graduate as leverage again?”

He tightened his grip on her and said, word by word, “You don’t actually believe that an engagement can simply end because you say it’s over, do you?”

“But you acquiesced, didn’t you?” she said, wide-eyed. “You said it yourself a few days ago, what is our relationship! This indicates that we have no relationship now.”

Watching the gaze that seemed ready to devour her, Lu Wanwan felt that Gu Annan might be on the verge of anger.

“Gu Annan,” she rushed to explain, “About engagements, there’s also a matter of who came first. I’m sorry, but I just remembered a few days ago that I had been engaged a long time ago. I’m a person of my word. Unless the other party breaks the engagement, I won’t marry someone else.”

Gu Annan’s eyebrows gradually knitted tighter. The initial purpose on her face was not completely missed by him.

But now, she seemed to be telling the truth.

“My father might not know about this,” she added. “So, our engagement can be said to be invalid.”
