Chu Ningwei seemed to have heard words that were unbelievable. He couldn't believe that his cousin, who was feared in business, would now say such words for a man.

His cousin really seemed to have fallen into Gu Bai's trap and was trapped tightly.

Since ancient times, heroes have struggled with beauty, but who knows that even Chu Zeshen can't escape.

"Cousin, in order to please a man, are you dedicating the efforts of generations of the Chu Family people? You..." Chu Ningwei couldn't think of any words of responsibility, and finally said, "I want to tell my uncle."

Like a kid who wants to sue someone if he is bullied too much.

Gu Bai looked indifferent at first, but he almost couldn't help but smile. He lowered his eyes to divert his attention and rubbed Mocha.

Chu Zeshen noticed Gu Bai's movements, raised his hand and scratched his chin, and said nonchalantly, "Don't disturb grandpa with such trivial matters. You are arranging me outside, and I don't mind if you say everything I said."

Of course Chu Ningwei would not say these things out loud, as this is related to their Chu Family's face. Those words he said before were all about Gu Bai's ill-intentioned marriage to the Chu Family and such small talk.

If Chu Zeshen's words were spoken out, not only as a casual conversation, but also as a topic on the stage, Chu Zeshen would represent Chu Family, and the whole Chu Family would be embarrassed.

Chu Zeshen looked at the time, it was already time to get off work.

"I don't care if you come to me to talk about personal matters during working hours this time. Your direct superior will know your abilities. It's an act of overstepping your authority for you to come to the office to see me. I hope there won't be a next time."

Chu Ningwei was slapped in the face in public, but he had nothing to say and could only acknowledge it silently.

"I know, there is no next time."

Chu Ningwei glanced at Gu Bai, without even looking at him, and finally left the office in a gray manner.

Chu Ningwei is just a trivial matter to Gu Bai. In his previous life, he had experienced Gu Family escorting a whole family into the office to look for him. Just like Chu Ningwei, they had lofty ideals and believed that their position was not worthy of him. They jumped over the hierarchy to find him and used kinship feelings to morally kidnap him.

Gu Bai leaned on the chair and watched them acting with great emotion. It would be a pity not to go on the big screen. Gu Bai felt sorry for him in his heart.

They played their part, Gu Bai watched the show by himself, and finally got off work on time, leaving a message for them: You can try eye drops next time. After crying for so long, there is no tear. You may have dry eyes. You are allowed to take time off to see a doctor in your free time, and pay attention to your health.

Gu Bai has long been accustomed to this kind of family troubles.

Chu Zeshen apologized and leaned over to touch Gu Bai's cheek. "I'm sorry to bother you with such a trivial matter."

Gu Bai smiled at Chu Zeshen, "Fortunately you didn't wake me up when I was sleeping, otherwise I would have taught your cousin a lesson for you."

Chu Zeshen said, "I won't bother you, I will teach him a lesson."

Gu Bai didn't have afternoon tea. Now it's dinner time and my stomach is a little empty.

"I'm hungry."

Chu Zeshen laughed, "Let's go have dinner now."

Gu Bai put the leash on Mocha, and the two of them and the dog walked out of the office.

The employees in the secretarial department were already ready to get off work, but they didn't dare to leave until their boss left.

Everyone watched the boss and his wife lead Mocha out of the office. They saw the boss suddenly stopped and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't just have to work overtime temporarily. You shouldn't do it when the boss lady is here.

Chu Zeshen said to Assistant Feng, "I have worked hard overtime recently, and the company will reimburse you for your dinner party later."

Assistant Feng responded, "Okay, thank you, Mr. Chu."

After Chu Zeshen and Gu Bai got on the elevator, everyone in the secretarial department breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't know what's going on. Mr. Chu has become a lot gentler now that Mr. Gu is here, but I still think Mr. Chu is very serious."

"It's normal, because Mr. Chu's tenderness is not directed at us."

"But I still hope that Mr. Gu will come to the company often, so that Mr. Chu will not be cold all day long, and at least he will have some human touch."

Everyone greatly agreed with this sentence and wished Mr. Gu could follow Mr. Chu to work every day.

Assistant Feng smiled as he listened to their conversation, and asked while cleaning up, "Can you guys discuss what we are going to eat later?"

Someone asked, "Did you get Mr. Chu's card?"

Assistant Feng took a card from the bag. "Swipe whatever you want."

Everyone cheered in unison.

Because they brought Mocha with them, they found a pet-friendly restaurant to enjoy dinner.

This was an unprepared date that was not considered a date because Chu Zeshen had not made a reservation in advance and there were no private rooms in the restaurant.

Gu Bai looked at Chu Zeshen who was not familiar with the dating process. It was obvious that this person was on a first date and did not use the assistant's help to book a restaurant.

It's rare to see Chu Zeshen forget something.

Gu Bai said, "A location near the window is also fine."

The location by the window is a semi-enclosed box, which is more friendly to their guests who bring pets.

When Gu Bai and Mocha go out, they always look for restaurants that allow pets. Mocha is used to eating out. He is a dog that has only seen the world, so he doesn't bark.

After Gu Bai sat down, he glanced at Chu Zeshen. He seemed unhappy that he had not reserved a seat in advance.

Yes, Chu Zeshen, a cold character, can also be depressed, but he will only show it in front of people he is familiar with and close to.

Unfortunately, the only person he was close to was Gu Bai, and although Gu Bai was indifferent to everything outside, the only one who could attract his attention was Chu Zeshen. He gradually became very interested in exploring Chu Zeshen.

For example, Chu Zeshen is not good at expressing his inner emotions, but if you observe carefully, some fixed small movements will indicate this person's inner emotions.

The pad of Chu Zeshen's thumb was rubbing his index finger. This was one of the few times Gu Bai saw it.
