Her Clingy Husband

Proofread By Yu Bing

With a snap, Su Ni turns off the computer, her face gloomy and dark, “You’d better explain Gu Lang’s behavior today!” Su Ni spends almost the whole afternoon watching half of Gu Lang’s interview videos for the past two years. Just as what the news says about him, he is by nature a Bohemian and will not make decisions according to conventions. What is even more surprising is that Gu Lang’s fans love Gu Lang’s style, and they will applaud for every decision he makes and the way he behaves on any occasion. Accordingly, the companies begin to spoil Gu Lang more and more and willingly accept the way he is. Su Ni contains herself. Just then Qin Yue puts newspaper reports on the table in front of Su Ni. These newspapers all showered him with over-the-top compliments and cheesy but positive messages. Su Ni takes a quick look, and it is consistent with what she already knows: that he is well received and widely acclaimed for that unconventionality.

“Actually, Ms. Su, you don’t have to worry too much about Gu Lang. I have investigated into him. Although he seems unconventional and unruly, he is very dedicated. So far, there is no word spreading out that he doesn’t treat his job seriously.” “Maybe I am too nervous.” Su Ni reluctantly squeezes out a smile and leans slightly backward against the back of the chair to relax herself. She realizes that the very sight of Gu Lang showing up around her makes her nerve system collapse, and a little incident can make her very furious. “Go to the advertising department and tell them to give Gu Lang some necessary guidelines. As to the specifics, it is left to Gu Lang to decide and play the rest.” After watching Gu Lang’s interview videos, Su Ni feels a little relieved. Now that Gu Lang has already signed the contract, she shouldn’t resist him like she usually did in the past.

“I see.” Qin Yue purses her lips, smiling, and then says, “Assistant Luo is already waiting for you downstairs in the lobby.” “I will go down immediately.” Su Ni suddenly remembers that there is still an important dinner date tonight. She can’t afford to show up late, so she quickly takes a bath and changes to a light blue skirt suit. She makes her hair come down to her shoulders and goes downstairs. At the door, Luo Qing greets her by nodding slightly. She opens and closes the car door for her respectfully. Su Ni sits in the back, flipping through the files in her hand, and asks casually, “Which dinner am I going to attend today?” Luo Qing says, “I only know I should send you to Ban Cheng Hotel. I don’t know anything else.” Su Ni raises her eyebrows as if suddenly realizing something, so she doesn’t ask more questions. At the Ban Cheng Hotel. As soon as Su Ni gets out of the car, she hears Luo Qing say: “Mr Gu is coming.” Su Ni turns around and sees an Audi slowly approaching, with several Nancheng celebrities inside. Su Ni puts on a smiling face and greets them with a smile. Gu Zechen frowns when he sees Su Ni is dressed in a light-colored dress. In this suit, she looks more energetic, younger and much prettier than ever before. “This is Director Zhang, and this is President Li.” Su Ni steps forward and greets them one by one. After shaking hands with them politely, she stands beside Gu Zechen. Then she hears Gu Zechen whispering in a low voice, “Why do you dress like this?” Su Ni looks down. The neckline is not exposed, and the skirt reaches below the knees. There is nothing inappropriate, then she asks, “Is there any problem?” Gu Zechen looks forward, his lips pressed tightly, and does not answer Su Ni’s question. When Su Ni walks past Luo Qing, she asks, “Is there any problem with my dress today?”

Luo Qing raised her eyes also, carefully examining Su Ni. As a woman, she also does not find anything wrong. Su Ni sighs slightly. This man’s mind is really hard to read. When Su Ni goes in, Luo Heng is greeting the other guests. Someone in front of him reminds him that Mr. Gu is coming, and then he quickly goes to the door to meet him. “Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu, Director Zhang, Mr. Wang…” Luo Heng is twenty-eight years old and has been in Bancheng city for nearly five years. He can remember all the celebrities in the city who have come here to eat. At this time, without any hesitation, he calls out everybody’s name. Gu Zechen nods slightly, without looking at him, enters the reserved room quickly. Su Ni’s eyes meet Luo Heng’s briefly, but quickly Su Ni looks away without any trace and follows Gu Zechen into the room. The moment Director Zhang takes his seat, he burst into laughter and says with an energetic voice: ” Mr. Gu, you are really not very sincere. Mrs. Gu used to work with me, but you didn’t tell me the relationship between you two in advance, which almost put me in a very awkward situation.” “Director Zhang, you are joking. I just do not want to interfere with her business. So I don’t think it necessary to tell you that.” Gu Zechen says in a business-like manner, civil, polite and restrained. Director Zhang repeatedly says yes, but secretly he says to himself. “You will not interfere with her business, then why are you here tonight?”

Today, because Gu Zechen is the host, everyone gives him enough face. They let out a laugh, and the matter is over. “I have heard about this also, but now, the story of Mr and Mrs. Gu has spread throughout Nancheng city, and everyone knows it. There is no way for Mr. Gu to hide it anymore.” Director Wang, who sits next to Director Zhang, wipes his hands and says gently, “My wife and her friends have been dining in my ears about you recently. Mrs. Gu, why don’t you organize a party, so that I can have some quiet hours.” “It will be my pleasure.” Su Ni smiles slightly. Since last time Su Ni met those housewives on the party, she rarely has personal relationships with any of them after that. Qin Yue also mentions this to her, so Su Ni readily agrees. Su Ni, as a hostess today, knows her duty clearly. After exchanging courtesy and pleasantries, the banquet officially begins then the drink is served.

After that, a few more celebrities also arrive, Director Wang quickly gets up and introduces them one by one, even Gu Zechen’s expression becomes slightly solemn. He arranges his suits and waits for the three to be seated. “This is Liu, deputy director of the Foreign Investment Office, and this is Wang, vice director of the NanCheng city Investment Promotion Group. This is President Gu.” Director Zhang introduces them, and Gu Zechen greets them.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

After everyone takes his seat, Su Ni hears Gu Zechen asking Director Zhang in private: “Why doesn’t Director Sun come?” Director Zhang looks embarrassed. He casts a quick glance at the two deputy directors and lowers his voice: “Director Sun called to cancel at the last minute. It is a long story. You know that better than me.” Gu Zechen’s face frosty, apparently he is not pleased with such a reply. Director Zhang hurriedly says something to smooth things over. He lowers his voice and continues: “Don’t worry, you know how difficult it is to be a government official, and I will make another appointment for you next time.” “Director Zhang, I hear that Mo family also came to you this time?” Gu Zechen’s eyes narrow, revealing coolly calculating glint in his eyes. Director Zhang laughs. He straightens his body and looks directly at Gu Zechen, without denying it, “I do this job. It’s normal for Mo family to come to me.” Suddenly the conversation turns, Director Zhang says again: “And even Qidong also gets a foot in.” He deliberately lowers his voice and moves closer to Gu Zechen, in order to see more clearly Gu Zechen’s facial expression. Sure enough, Gu Zechen’s face turns dark, and the last trace of concealment disappears, and his eyes turn sharp. Su Ni doesn’t miss a word. She hears of this name before, this Qidong is just a distant relative of Gu Zechen. She hears An Rong talk about him before: how he leaves Gu’s home and set up his own business. In the past two decades, his relationship with Gu Zechen’s family is just on the surface, and his relationship with other Gu family is not much better.
