Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1144: Chapter 1158: It Must Be Like This

Gu Haoyu seemed not to hear the sound behind him, his eyes fixed on the little woman, ”What do you want to eat? I know a French restaurant that’s quite good, want to try it?”

”BOSS...”

Qi Wei was relentless, taking another step forward.

”Hmm,” Gu Haoyu finally heard the sound behind him, glanced at Qi Wei, ”Go book a table at the restaurant, we’ll head over shortly.”

Qi Wei looked hopelessly at the executives behind him.

The executives’ faces turned ashen one by one: Boss, can you really not see us standing here?

Lin Ruonan looked at the group of people behind Gu Haoyu and asked somewhat worriedly, ”Is it really okay? Why do I feel like they’re all waiting for you?”

The executives almost shed tears: Look at the boss’s wife, she’s really too considerate.

Gu Haoyu finally glanced at the people behind him, then wrapped his arm around the woman’s shoulder, not looking back as he said, ”The signing ceremony is postponed.”

The executives: ”...”

Not even military strategy compares to this, does it?

Inside the low-profile luxury Maybach, Gu Haoyu stared unblinkingly at the little woman beside him.

In a flash, it had been three months since he’d last seen her. Suddenly seeing the woman he’d been dreaming of, he felt a bit unreal.

Lin Ruonan felt her face heat up under the man’s gaze but had nowhere to escape in the confined space.

Gu Haoyu held the woman’s small hand in his palm, the real sensation preventing him from letting go.

”Nan, did you come to see Brother for something?”

Based on Gu Haoyu’s knowledge of Lin Ruonan, her sudden visit to the company must have been for some reason. Otherwise, this woman would likely hide forever rather than come out to see him.

Recalling that day, he realized he had been a bit too hasty. Yet, faced with a woman he’d loved for twenty years, he truly didn’t want to wait any longer.

But this had made the woman who had just accepted him run away.

And she had been gone for more than three months, her phone either off or unanswered when he called.

Though he knew her place wasn’t comparable to the outside world with their rules, these three months of zero communication left him longing and yearning.

”Hmm?” Lin Ruonan, while staring at Gu Haoyu’s hand, suddenly looked up, wondering why Grandpa hadn’t told him she’d be visiting today.

She remembered receiving countless calls from Grandpa asking her to return home, eventually shutting off her phone and refusing all calls.

Given Grandpa’s petty, vindictive personality, he must have thought she couldn’t accomplish the daunting task and purposely didn’t tell Brother, wanting to see her futilely bump her head here before returning home defeated, seeking him out again, then subjecting her to his re-education, soothing his three-month discomfort.

Hahaha, it must be like this.

Lin Ruonan increasingly felt her thoughts were correct, but would she really fall for Grandpa’s scheme?

Could something as trivial as getting the marriage certificate really stump her?

Gu Haoyu noticed the woman’s little face whitening then reddening, reddening then turning green, finally showing frustration as she rummaged her backpack.

”Brother, here’s my household registration booklet, take a look at it. I don’t know if you have yours with you. If not, it’s fine, I can accompany you to get it from home. I’ve come here without much issue today, just thinking if Brother has no objections, maybe we can go to the civil affairs bureau and get the marriage certificate. Oh, you mentioned having French cuisine earlier, are you hungry? If you are, I can accompany you to eat first.”
