Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 145 - 145 Your Future Husband
Chapter 145: Chapter 145 Your Future Husband Chapter 145 -145 Your Future Husband She intentionally stuffed it with great force into the bottom of that stack of albums.
“Alright, let’s leave once you’re done packing,” Gu Annan said as he watched her childish act, not wanting to trouble her further.
Lu Wanwan sighed in relief internally, thankful that he hadn’t flipped to the back.
The photo, although a bit embarrassing, was just of a baby after all; it wasn’t something she couldn’t show people.
But there was one in the back that she absolutely couldn’t let him see!
Carrying a stack of albums downstairs, Lu Wanwan purposely took extra glances at Lin Yu and Lu Kexin, making them feel guilty.
Lin Yu could only keep a fixed smile on her face as she saw the two of them out.
Though Gu Annan hadn’t explicitly stated it, his attitude had been very clear; he did not want such incidents to happen again.
“Speak!” After Lu Wanwan left, Lu Jingtian’s expression darkened, “Were you the people Gu Annan mentioned just now?”
Lin Yu hedged, “There’s been a bit of a misunderstanding about this matter…”
“How can you say that, Dad? Gu Annan didn’t say he knew who it was,” Lu Kexin couldn’t help but retort.
“Do his intentions need to be clearer?” Lu Jingtian was very angry, “If it were usual times, it’d be fine, but now that she’s going to be the future Young Madam Gu, do you still dare to act this way?”
“But Dad, don’t you see? Whoever she becomes in the future won’t bring any benefits to the Lu Family,” Lu Kexin sobbed in aggrievance, “He’s good to my sister, but if she cared even a bit about this family, wouldn’t you be unable to even start a partnership conversation?”
“You… shut your mouth!”
Already feeling guilty, Lin Yu suddenly began crying, “Go ahead and scold, I never blamed Wanwan for causing my miscarriage back then; do you think I wanted to harm her for my own sake? Everything I’ve done was for you! She moved to the Gu Mansion even without being engaged, yet Gu Annan showed no intention of addressing the crisis facing your company. She’d rather let Gu Annan know she wants nothing to do with us even when coming for a meal…”
Lu Jingtian’s brow tightened as he listened to her.
“If she had such a backer, wouldn’t she be able to target the Lu Family easily in the future? You better not forget, if the past was dug up…”
“Shut up!” Lu Jingtian shouted sternly.
Lin Yu sobbed quietly, but seeing her husband’s reaction, she knew her words had struck a chord.

It was already evening by the time she returned to the Gu Mansion.
Gu Annan went to his study to handle some office work, where his computer received the investigative report he had requested.
Yi Cheng, a journalist from Zui Entertainment, had worked there for three years. Coming from a poor family, his parents had divorced early. His father had become an alcoholic after losing his job.
“Have this person removed from Zui Entertainment. Also, investigate the background of this news outlet for me.”
Lu Wanwan busied herself organizing the albums she had moved from the Lu Family, taking advantage of Gu Annan’s absence to reopen the album that Gu Annan had seen today.
Flipping to the last page, she found a photo of two children, one of whom was her, not yet three years old at the time, next to a boy only slightly older.
She only knew he was one of her childhood playmates, who had left Manchester afterwards and never seen again.
As for who he actually was, how could she remember something from so long ago?
But she vaguely remembered asking her mother who it was in the photo before she started elementary school, and her mother jokingly said it was her future husband set up for her.

The mention of “old man” made her disdain it completely, only repeatedly saying no, and then the photo was never brought out again.
Though many years had passed, to be safe, she absolutely couldn’t let Gu Annan see this kind of strange child betrothal.
