Xu Weilai was stunned by him suddenly referring to her as Mrs. Gu. She didn’t react in time.
Zhou Meiqi, on the other hand, burst into laughter. “CEO Chen, she’s no longer Mrs. Gu. CEO Gu has already divorced her.”
She would never allow Xu Weilai to use her identity as Mrs. Gu to attract President Chen’s attention and snatch away this interview!
Truthfully, this interview wasn’t an important piece of news, but Zhou Meiqi liked to compete with Xu Weilai. As long as Xu Weilai wanted to do something, she definitely had to snatch it away!
President Chen appeared as if he heard something utterly outlandish. Xu Weilai didn’t say anything, but he denied it first. “Impossible! How could CEO Gu divorce Mrs. Gu?”
Zhou Meiqi never expected that the person who refuted her was CEO Chen. Moreover, he said it with such conviction. She froze for a few seconds and quickly explained, “CEO Chen, I’m not lying to you. It’s true. It’s just that you were overseas and didn’t receive any news. Xu Weilai really…”
However, before she could finish her words, CEO Chen was already unwilling to listen any longer. He gestured to his secretary. The secretary understood and immediately came forward. She made a polite yet assertive inviting gesture. “Reporter Zhou, CEO Chen wants to accept an interview with reporter Xu. Please leave.”
“CEO Chen, I…”Zhou Meiqi couldn’t accept that she had been KO’d just like that. She still wanted to fight for it.
However, the secretary had already grabbed her arm and forcefully dragged her away.
Xu Weilai finally snapped back to reality. She cleared her throat, opened her mouth, and first admitted, “CEO Chen, I’m sorry. Gu Yu and I have indeed divorced. I’m no longer Mrs. Gu.”
CEO Chen raised his eyebrows in surprise. “You two really divorced? Unbelievable.”
He digested it for a full minute, then he said, “But CEO Gu loves you so much. Mrs. Gu, why did you divorce him? Last time, at such an important signing event like mine, he left the venue at the last minute because you were in danger. In the end, he even borrowed my private jet to rush back. You two actually separated?”
“…”Xu Weilai didn’t know about this, so when she heard it, her eyes narrowed slightly.
“The second time he flew over to sign a new contract with me, I accidentally saw your photo in his phone, and that’s why I recognized you. At that time, I even praised you for your beauty. CEO Gu proudly told me that you were his wife!”
CEO Chen still couldn’t believe it, so he even asked, “Is there some sort of misunderstanding between the two of you?”
Xu Weilai didn’t answer his question about Gu Yu. She simply smiled and asked, “CEO Chen, can we start the interview now?”
CEO Chen saw that she didn’t want to talk about it, so he didn’t continue. He nodded and said, “Then let’s start.”
The two of them went to CEO Chen’s lounge. Xu Weilai, with her professionalism, calmly finished the interview with CEO Chen. She politely declined his offer to send her back. She slowly walked towards the hotel entrance.
Only she herself knew that she wasn’t feeling that calm inside. Her mind was a mess because of what CEO Chen had said, and even her ears were buzzing.
As she walked forward in a daze, she suddenly saw a figure in a black suit walking out of the hotel entrance in front of her with his back facing her. It appeared so familiar…
Gu Yu?
He came here?
Before Xu Weilai’s mind could make a rational decision, she had already reflexively raised her feet and chased after him.
