My Mr. Gu is Courting Death Again Chapter 724 - The Ultimate Step (2)

Chapter 724: The Ultimate Step (2)

Xu Weilai pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Big Boss, is this really… your first time courting a girl?”

This question caught Zuo An off-guard as a hint of surprised flashed through his eyes, but still he gave her a serious answer, “Yes.”

“You seem to know a lot of love words and good in sweet talking considering that you had no previous experience. It came one after another.”

She would have given in to him if it she wasn’t mentally strong enough.

Her words stunned Zuo An. It took him a few seconds before he managed a faint smile, “I meant every word I said. They are not sweet talk.”

That certainly rendered her speechless.

Her Big Boss was probably one of the legendary person who flirt without realising he was flirting.

Xu Weilai felt she should not be in the same room with her Big Boss any longer as no women could withstand the constant attack of sweet talk and words of love and not give in. It was late into the night too. Being in the same room with him spelled danger.

Refusing to continue with the conversation, she s.n.a.t.c.hed the cup from Zuo An’s hand as she prepared to send him off. “Big Boss, drive carefully on your way home. Wonderful dream and see you tomorrow.”

It was indeed very late, even though Zuo An was reluctant to end the beautiful night.

He nodded, but still he requested, “Send me to the door.”

“Sure.”

Xu Weilai placed the cup on the table and walked Zuo An to the door. Then she opened the door and stepped aside. She raised her and waved him goodbye, “Take care.”

Zuo An lifted his foot to make his move, halted, then lifted another foot to make another move. Then he stopped again. He took the third step and went out the door of Xu Weilai’s apartment.

Xu Weilai could only pretend that she did not see his reluctance to leave and continued waving him goodbye, “You should get going.”

Perhaps Zuo An too realised that it was childish and funny of him to be showing the reluctance to leave. He chuckled as well, “Alright, I’m leaving.”

Still, he remained standing by the door with no intention to move even when he said so.

Xu Weilai had no intention to let him linger around and shut the door on his face.

Zuo An rubbed his nose and chuckled again and only left after five minutes.

Xu Weilai washed the two cups, then lay on her bed after she took her shower.

She stared at the ceiling with her hands placed underneath her head, cus.h.i.+oning her head comfortably. She replayed all the details of what happened tonight in her mind. It ended with Zuo An’s deliberate avoidance on the topic when he mentioned about his father.

Zuo An’s mother seemed to be his pillar of dependence, while he doesn’t appear to have much feelings towards his father.

Ironically, the reason he came to Gu Corporation was because of CEO Zuo’s instruction. CEO Zuo even suppressed Zuo Si because of Zuo An. In that case, did CEO Zuo value Zuo An over Zuo Si?

So, was that the reason for hatred in Zuo Si towards Zuo An?

Xu Weilai let her thoughts ran wild before she eventually fell asleep.

The following day was a weekend.

Even though Xu Weilai slept late the night before, her biological clock awakened her when the clock stroke seven sharp in the morning.

Xu Weilai kept tossing and turning on the bed. She couldn’t sleep in even though she badly wanted to. Thus, she decided not to go against her body’s calling and went to wash up in the bathroom.

Geared up in her sportswear, she went for a run around the neighbourhood. Then she went back home and had her breakfast before her grocery errand to stock up on her food and other daily necessities.

When Xu Weilai was walking back from her errand run, she vaguely felt that she was being tailed. She stopped and turned around swiftly, to find no one behind her.

She frowned slightly, then quickened her steps.
