The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 771 - 786: Who Exactly Will You Choose?

Zhong Li also sat down at her own place, continuing to discuss the previous issue with Qi Shangyu, only this time she deliberately kept a bit further from him.

Qi Shangyu glanced at Zhong Li, taking a few seconds before he started working.

When everyone finished their tasks, it was already past ten o’clock. Zhong Li raised her hand to rub her neck, stood up from her chair, and prepared to go home.

"I’ll give you a ride."

Qi Shangyu’s voice suddenly rang out, and everyone in the conference room unconsciously looked at Zhong Li with surprised expressions, except for Assistant Wang, who had long since discovered their president’s little thoughts.

Zhong Li turned around and politely replied, "Thank you, President Qi, but my car is right downstairs."

"Alright, take care on the road."

Zhong Li just nodded and left, and everyone else followed her out.

While waiting for the elevator, Assistant Wang leaned towards Zhong Li’s ear and asked in a whisper only they could hear, "Who are you really choosing?"

"Are you bored?"

Zhong Li looked at Assistant Wang, truly feeling that his curiosity was beyond average.

"I’m just curious, have you, you know, with President Gu? Does our President Qi still have a chance?" Assistant Wang kept murmuring by Zhong Li’s ear.

With a "ding", the elevator doors opened, and Zhong Li went in with everyone. Just as the doors were about to close, Qi Shangyu also stepped in.

The chattering Assistant Wang instantly fell silent; he wouldn’t dare gossip in front of the president himself.

Exiting the elevator, Zhong Li just walked out of the lobby and saw Gu Nanxi not far away. He was leaning against the car door with a hand in his pocket, a scarlet flame flickering at his fingertips.

Gu Nanxi also noticed Zhong Li; he exhaled a puff of smoke, discarded the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out with his shiny leather shoe, and strode over.

He stopped in front of Zhong Li, slightly parting his thin lips, "Let’s go home."

That statement made it sound like Zhong Li was living with him.

The colleagues nearby hadn’t left yet, and Zhong Li was nearly infuriated. She smiled slightly and politely said, "Thank you for the offer, President Gu, but I’ll drive myself home."

Qi Shangyu stood right beside, the corners of his mouth curled in a barely noticeable smile.

Gu Nanxi reached out and grasped Zhong Li’s wrist, "Stop fussing, hurry up and come home with me." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Without giving Zhong Li a chance to speak, Gu Nanxi pulled her towards the car.

Getting in the car, Gu Nanxi leaned over to buckle Zhong Li’s seatbelt, then walked around the front of the car and got into the driver’s seat.

Standing at the company entrance, Qi Shangyu took a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, drew one out and lit it. Amidst the swirling smoke, his dark eyes were unreadable.

"You did it on purpose, right? What’s with ’let’s go home’, making it sound as if I’m living with you. Can’t you stop saying nonsense all the time?"

Zhong Li glared angrily at Gu Nanxi.

"Have some milk tea, I just bought it for you."

Gu Nanxi handed the milk tea to Zhong Li, then turned the steering wheel onto the main road.

Originally, he wanted to buy dinner for Zhong Li, but seeing a delivery person entering their company, he figured she must have eaten, so he bought her a cup of milk tea from the corner store instead.

"Were you waiting downstairs the whole time?" Zhong Li looked at the milk tea in her hand, feeling oddly less angry.

"Yes, I was worried it might be unsafe for you to go back alone."

"Did you have dinner?"

Gu Nanxi turned his head to look at Zhong Li in the passenger seat, "Not yet. I bought a lot of ingredients at the supermarket, planning for you to make dinner, but now I’m really hungry, maybe you can cook some noodles for me when we get back."
