Gu Yuzhi watched with wide eyes as Bao Gucheng invited Zuzi over and patted the spot beside his leg, asking her to sit down.

One really dared to say it! The other dared to sit!

Although Zuzi only sat lightly on the man’s knee, the level of intimacy seriously challenged generational boundaries.

"Bao Gucheng, you, you..." his voice was a bit shaky.

Bao Gucheng ignored him, but Gu Qiusha said with a smile, "Brother, come over quickly and help me make a decision. Bao Er, Xiao Man, come sit over here with me and watch."

Gu Qiusha completely treated the three girls as juniors to her and Bao Gucheng, not finding anything inappropriate about inviting them to squeeze in and sit together.

Gu Yuzhi reluctantly followed forward, discovering that a stack of documents was spread out on Gu Qiusha’s desk. It was the promotional plan for "Chang Er," with the signature line glaringly marked—CEO’s Office of Nangong Group.

"Isn’t Nangong Mo overstepping his bounds? Not to mention the previous kidnapping, now he’s daring to forcibly interfere in your career?" he said angrily.

Gu Qiusha coughed awkwardly, "Brother, he didn’t kidnap me. I’m just discussing with Mr. Bo whether to accept this promotional plan."

Gu Yuzhi’s frustration immediately doubled.

His Sha Sha was too naive; both Bao Gucheng and Nangong Mo were no good, yet she was welcoming a wolf at the front door and a tiger at the back, truly worrisome.

He glanced at Bao Gucheng, "Discussing with Bao Gucheng, are you sure?"

Only then did Bao Gucheng lightly respond, "I am the main investor of ’Chang Er,’ can’t the creator discuss with me?"

Gu Yuzhi: "..."

This man is really like a wolf, silent for so long, and when he opens his mouth, you choke.

Bao Gucheng turned to Gu Qiusha, continuing, "As an investor, I can have him forcibly kicked out, not allowing him near the ’Chang Er’ project. However, apart from being proposed by the CEO’s Office of Nangong Group, this plan is also drafted in the capacity of president of your fan club. Miss Gu, you only need to consider the fans’ feelings."

Gu Yuzhi frowned, objecting, "Bao Gucheng, you’re actually supporting Nangong Mo’s interference in Sha Sha’s career? Why consider fans? This is a principle that cannot be compromised!"

Bao Gucheng glanced at him calmly, "There’s nothing that can’t be compromised, sometimes even the law has to yield to human considerations."

"You have no principles!"

"Are you afraid of Nangong Mo?"

"What a joke, when have I, Gu Yuzhi, ever feared such a person!"

"If so, why are you agitated? We have the situation under control, he can’t stir up any waves."

"Who says? You don’t know the likes of Nangong Mo, on the surface he’s one way, secretly he has all kinds of schemes and motives. At the last fan meeting, he smiled on the surface but sent threatening texts behind the scenes..."

"What texts, brother?" Gu Qiusha vaguely heard Gu Yuzhi accidentally mention this a second time, and never had it clarified.

Bao Gucheng also casually said, "Threats? Need me to help investigate, just say the word. For Miss Zuzi and Miss Gu’s sake, I can help you this once."

Gu Yuzhi: "..."

Those words were really sharp!

"No need, just a prank, nothing significant."

Gu Yuzhi mumbled evasively.

The content of the text couldn’t be made public, family scandals shouldn’t be spread, especially in front of Bao Gucheng, who he couldn’t fully trust yet.

Since Gu Yuzhi didn’t say anything, everyone else didn’t take it seriously and continued to discuss Nangong Mo’s proposal.

When it was Zuzi’s turn to express her opinion, she just smiled and said, "If Xiao Chenger says it’s okay, then it’s okay."

Taking this opportunity, they could also observe Nangong Mo’s true purpose.

Xi Rubao and Wu Qianman immediately raised their hands in agreement, "Yeah, yeah, we also think Mr. Bo makes a lot of sense!"

Gu Yuzhi: "..."

Frustration, unwillingness, a sense of defeat... every time he met Bao Gucheng, he never won. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Bao Gucheng then pinched Zuzi’s little hand under the table, his face calm and composed.
