Chapter 823: Chapter 408 This Night

PS: Still haven’t finished writing, sending it out first.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiaowei’s high school classmate, Wu Xuyan, was now thinking about Gao Jun.

Ever since the day she encountered Gao Jun, she had been thinking about clinging onto this "big thigh" (a metaphor for a powerful backer).

After all, she was too tired; having looked for several jobs post-graduation, none were to her liking.

She didn’t want to make an effort anymore.

So, Wu Xuyan came to Modu.

However, she did not seek out Ye Xiaowei, but contacted Gao Jun directly instead.

The two of them then went to a restaurant.

During that time.

The two of them did enjoy a candlelit dinner.

When Gao Jun’s deep gaze fixed straight on her, a hint of undisguisable unease flashed across Wu Xuyan’s face.

She quickly closed her eyes slightly, feigning a drunk and hazy demeanor, and leaned her body gently against Gao Jun’s broad shoulders.

Then, she whispered, "Gao Jun, I can’t possibly go home looking like this, and I’m so sleepy right now, I really want to sleep. How about we book a room in this hotel, what do you think?"

While speaking, she deliberately emphasized the words "sleep," her eyes revealing a suggestive meaning.

"Sure, luxury executive suite, no charge for the room," Gao Jun responded with a slight upturn of his mouth, replying unhurriedly.

"But... I didn’t bring my ID; what should I do?" Wu Xuyan quietly reached out, gently tugging at Gao Jun’s sleeve, tilting her head back slightly with a hint of expectation and slyness in her eyes.

Suppressing a smile, Gao Jun pretended to be serious and said, "No problem, I can have someone else book a room for you."

"You’ve also had quite a bit to drink, why not stay here tonight?" Wu Xuyan blinked, persistently continuing to ask.

"I have a driver," Gao Jun replied succinctly.

"This..." Wu Xuyan bit her luscious red lips, tip-toed slightly, and leaning close to Gao Jun’s ear, lowered her voice and said, "I’m wearing a set of particularly novel lingerie today, with lots of English words on it. My English isn’t great, I was hoping you could translate them for me."

"Oh? My English is so-so," Gao Jun said as he slightly raised his eyebrows, a glimmer of amusement in his eyes.

Wu Xuyan’s eyes twitched slightly, but she still shamelessly suggested, "How about... we study some English together tonight?"

"Xuanya," Gao Jun suddenly reached out, firmly grasping her slender waist.

Wu Xuyan’s body tensed suddenly, surprised and a bit nervous, she said, "I’m here."

She couldn’t help but fret internally: Could Gao Jun be angry? After all, he had said before that it was his freedom to choose whether to drive and which car to drive.

Opportunities to be alone with him like today were rare; most of the time, Lili was present. Now that she finally had such a rare opportune moment, wasting it without achieving anything made her feel emptier and restless.

"It’s getting late; I should take you home," Gao Jun’s tone softened.

"Okay... okay, I’ll go get my scarf," Wu Xuyan’s face paled instantly; even her walk was a bit unsteady.

She kept thinking: [Have I been too assertive with my repeated attempts? Will he start to dislike me because of this?]

She had only recently gotten Gao Jun to like her a bit; she didn’t want her impetuous actions to ruin everything.

When she returned to Gao Jun’s side, Wu Xuyan had already put on that snowy-white scarf and appeared to have carefully arranged her hair as well, her head lowered slightly, looking exceptionally docile and obedient.

However, the look of disappointment in her eyes was something she couldn’t conceal no matter what.

Gao Jun didn’t say anything more; he led her out of the banquet hall in silence.

The two walked along the long corridor towards the exit, left and right, turning here and there. After quite a while, they arrived in front of a luxuriously decorated elevator.

This area was particularly quiet, and it seemed that this was the only elevator nearby.

Gao Jun walked up to it and pressed the elevator button. Shortly after, the elevator doors slowly opened.

At this moment, Wu Xuyan was restless, preoccupied with the events that had just transpired and not paying much attention to the surroundings, simply following Gao Jun silently into the elevator.

Gao Jun nonchalantly took out a card from his pocket and gently swiped it in the elevator’s sensor area.

After a soft "beep," the button for the 25th floor lit up.

Soon after, they felt a slight lifting sensation as the elevator smoothly began its ascent.

Finally snapping back to reality, Wu Xuyan raised her head to view the rising floors on the elevator display, including the button for the top floor; she looked astounded and asked, "This is..."

Gao Jun did not answer right away but just watched her with a smile, his eyes revealing a mysterious hint.

Wu Xuyan swallowed hard as her heart started to pound intensely, like a frightened deer.

She knew what was on the 25th floor; the presidential suite was right there!

[Didn’t Gao Jun say he was going to take me back? What does this mean?]

"Ding!" As the crisp sound signaled their arrival, the elevator came to a gentle halt at the top floor, and the doors opened accordingly.

Without hesitation, Gao Jun took Wu Xuyan’s somewhat chilly hand and led her out of the elevator with strides.
