Chapter 139: Repeated Temptations
Lin Jiayi just didn't have anything to say to Jiang Gu, so she said it casually, and she was also shocked when she heard his answer, but she drank the wine in the cup without showing it on her face.
"Hopefully, we will have other opportunities to work together in the future." She said.
Jiang Gu smiled slowly, "There will be." ”
Lin Jiayi nodded, and glanced at Jiang Gu, who was very outstanding in both appearance and temperament, and the worry in her heart was even worse. A person like Jiang Gu is the object of competition by women wherever he is placed, Zilin and her ...... Is it really possible not to be impressed by him?
When her thoughts diverged, her arm was suddenly lightly touched, and then Jiang Zilin's voice reached her ears: "Who is your male companion tonight?" ”
"I'm coming alone." Lin Jiayi said strangely: "What's wrong?" ”
Jiang Zilin's chin tapped in the direction of the center of the hall, "Zuo Hao has been looking at you for a long time. I thought you were all together. ”
"Oh." Lin Jiayi glanced coldly in the direction she was looking in, and quickly retracted her gaze, "He asked me a few times, but I didn't go." ”
Jiang Zilin reminded in a whisper: "He's here." ”
Lin Jiayi glanced at it again, and saw that Zuo Hao really walked towards her, frowned, and got up, "I'll go get busy first, you guys have fun by yourself." ”
She walked away with an empty wine glass and deliberately walked to the crowded self-service table and pretended to get something to eat.
As soon as she picked up a small cake, Zuo Hao's voice sounded behind her: "You have been busy lately?" ”
Lin Jiayi twisted her eyebrows, and a smile regained on her face in just a moment. She turned around and glanced around, and sure enough, she noticed that there were a lot of eyes cast at her, with gossip and curiosity in them. She smiled formulaically and nodded, "It's quite busy." ”
Seeing her smile, Zuo Hao only felt a little dazzling, but still asked, "Are you free tonight?" ”
Lin Jiayi didn't seem to expect him to ask this sentence here, so he was not prepared for a while, so he didn't answer immediately. When she raised her eyes, she saw his female companion Gu Zhen coming over.
"Mr. Zuo, people have been looking for you for a long time, so you are here." Gu Zhen gracefully grabbed Zuo Hao's arm and glanced at him.
Zuo Hao ignored Gu Zhen, didn't even respond to her words, his eyes were still locked on Lin Jiayi, and he said in a deep voice: "Is Director Lin not sure?" ”
"I'm sorry." Lin Jiayi looked at him and quickly opened her mouth this time.
Gu Zhen on the side slowly frowned. Lin Jiayi's words were short, so she couldn't guess what they were talking about before.
Zuo Hao has been rejected several times in a row during this time, and he is not annoyed, he only nodded lightly, and then left with Gu Zhen.
The two walked a few steps, and Gu Zhen suddenly turned his head and looked at Lin Jiayi meaninglessly.
Lin Jiayi raised her eyes as if she felt something, and looked at her quietly.
The corners of Gu Zhen's lips hooked, and the hand holding Zuo Hao's arm tightened slightly. She had heard of Lin Jiayi before, a career-oriented strong woman, aged thirty-five. But no matter how well she is maintained and her makeup is exquisite, can she compare to her youthful self?
Thinking about it like this, her mood suddenly improved, and she only felt that she was thinking too much. She retracted her gaze, talked to Zuo Hao coquettishly, and walked farther and farther.
Lin Jiayi stared at the backs of the two with a plate. It wasn't that she didn't see Gu Zhen's provocative gaze just now, and it wasn't that she didn't know the meaning of her eyes. It's just ridiculous, she and Gu Zhen have the same idea, and feel that the woman Zuo Hao chooses in the end will definitely be the young and beautiful type, so she is not angry at all.
The other side.
Gu Zhen was taken by Zuo Hao to meet with several business partners, and he felt more and more that the other party valued him, and the desire to get close to him that had been deliberately suppressed in the past gradually manifested himself at this moment.
"Mr. Zuo, it's not good to drink too much, I'll get you a glass of juice." She laughed.
Zuo Hao sat on the sofa and said "um" faintly.
The smile on her face grew brighter when she received his answer, and she graciously brought a glass of his favorite orange juice.
She leaned limply next to him, trying to bring the cup directly to his mouth, but he stopped her hand as soon as it reached mid-air.
He glanced at her, took the cup, and his eyes suddenly looked down the hall.
Gu Zhen's smile froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered, and said tentatively: "Mr. Zuo, I have a TV series finished next Tuesday." The crew has prepared a finale banquet, can you accompany me? ”
Zuo Hao didn't seem to hear her words, and his eyes were constantly searching for something in the distance.
Gu Zhen followed his gaze, probably guessed something, pursed his lips and remained silent.
Suddenly, Zuo Hao opened his mouth: "What time?" ”
Gu Zhen was overjoyed and hurriedly repeated, "Next Tuesday, the finale banquet of my latest play." ”
Zuo Hao took a sip of juice, turned his head, and looked at her with a rare soft look: "I should also congratulate you on the completion of your new play." ”
Gu Zhen thought that he had promised to go, and smiled more and more happily.
Zuo Hao stared at her face for a while, then turned his eyes away uncontrollably and looked into the distance. Lin Jiayi stood in the hall near the door, talking to someone, the smile on her face was the same as when she saw him just now, polite and detached.
He was sure she had seen him just now, but he didn't expect it to pass by coldly after just a slight glance.
Gu Zhen grabbed Zuo Hao's arm again, and said very obediently: "Then I'll send you the invitation letter tomorrow." ”
"Invitation?" Zuo Hao finally came back to his senses.
Gu Zhen looked at him: "You ...... just now"
"What I just meant was that there would be a gift." Zuo Hao said.
A smile condensed on his lips, and Gu Zhen's body stiffened for a moment.
Zuo Hao pulled out his arm indifferently, and suddenly stood up after putting down the cup.
Gu Zhen subconsciously got up, but seeing that he didn't call himself, he just took a step forward and stopped.
Lin Jiayi sent a guest away, stood outside the hotel and woke up for a while, and when she turned around, she saw Zuo Hao walking towards her.
"Let's talk?" He said.
Lin Jiayi raised her eyebrows: "What does Mr. Zuo want to talk about?" ”
Zuo Hao spoke directly: "Why do you always reject me during this time." ”
"I said I'm busy." Lin Jiayi said perfunctorily. In fact, the real reason is that she has been conditioning her body during this time, but she doesn't want Zuo Hao to know, "Isn't there a newcomer by Mr. Zuo's side?" She laughed, "Gu Zhen is very good." ”
Gu Zhen?
Zuo Hao stared at Lin Jiayi, his eyes sank instantly, and he was noncommittal.
Lin Jiayi raised her leg and wanted to leave.
As she passed by, Zuo Hao suddenly stretched out her hand, and her slender knuckles forcefully clamped her arm.
Lin Jiayi stiffened and bowed her head.
Zuo Hao's deep voice instantly knocked on the air beside him: "Why are you so afraid that others will know about our relationship?" ”
As soon as the words came out, he regretted it a little - to put it bluntly, they were just bed partners, and there should be no other superfluous emotions except sex.
