The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 820 - 835: A Marriage in Name Only

Sitting across the desk, Zhang Kai (Qi Shangyu’s close brother) flicked his cigarette ash into the ashtray, raising an eyebrow as he looked at him: "It seems like this Zhong Li has really got you entangled. I should have taken a look at what she looks like just now."

"I’ll introduce you to each other when there’s a chance."

After speaking, Gu Nanxi picked up a cigarette from the desk, turned his head to light it, and casually flipped through the documents on the table with the hand holding the cigarette: "Let’s go to meet with President Wang first."

"Alright, let’s go."

Zhang Kai put out the cigarette butt in his hand, got up from the chair, and left the office together with Gu Nanxi.

The two had just come out of the elevator when they ran into Gu Haoyuan and Lin Yi, whose face was adorned with motherly kindness: "Nancy, when did you get back? Why haven’t you gone home?"

Gu Nanxi, with a cold face, didn’t even spare her a glance. He lifted his head and called out "Dad" to Gu Haoyuan before striding away.

Next to him, Zhang Kai greeted Gu Haoyuan and followed him out.

With so many people in the lobby, Gu Nanxi didn’t give her even a bit of face, although Lin Yi was fuming inside, she still had to maintain a smile, especially with Gu Haoyuan standing next to her.

Gu Haoyuan and Gu Nanxi’s mother, Li Mei, had divorced years ago. The two had long since lost feelings for each other and were only maintaining the facade of this marriage for Gu Nanxi’s sake.

They had agreed not to interfere with each other’s personal life until Gu Nanxi graduated from university. When the whole family came to the UK, they laid it all out for Gu Nanxi and proceeded with the divorce.

In truth, Gu Nanxi couldn’t exactly hate them since there was no point in being together without love, but accepting it was another matter.

So over the years, Gu Nanxi’s attitude towards them had always been lukewarm, and even now that he was back, he would rather stay in a hotel than go home.

......

Zhang Kai had already arranged in advance to meet President Wang at a private club, saying that Gu Nanxi had something to discuss with him in person.

The car soon stopped at the entrance of the private club, and Gu Nanxi and Zhang Kai got out and walked inside together.

When they opened the door to the private room, President Wang was already there. Gu Nanxi greeted him with a smile: "Sorry to keep you waiting, President Wang."

"No, no, I’ve only just arrived a little while ago. President Gu, please, have a seat."

Wang Wei stood up from the sofa and gestured for them to sit.

Gu Nanxi leaned down to sit in front of the sofa, placing his hands, folded, on his lap: "I came today mainly to discuss the shares in your hands. I’ve heard that Lin Yi has visited you more than once?"

Wang Wei had already guessed that Gu Nanxi was here for the shares he held, and he did not want to deny that Lin Yi had approached him: "Yes, Vice Manager Lin has visited me several times, wanting to buy my shares at a high price."

Gu Nanxi nodded: "I wonder what President Wang’s plans are?"

"I’m still considering it, but frankly, the offer from Vice President Lin is very tempting."

Lu Jinghan’s fingertips tapped on his leg, then he turned to glance at Zhang Kai. Zhang Kai nodded knowingly, took a document out of his briefcase, and handed it to Wang Wei: "President Wang, please take a look at these documents first."

Wang Wei accepted the folder, opened it, and his expression changed upon seeing the photos inside: "President Gu, what do you mean by this?"
