Chapter 747 - 755: I’ll go then.
"You all are here, so of course, we brought out the best materials. Right, Alan?" Shang Dongyuan smiled, also greeting Alan.
From the moment Alan entered Gambling Stone City, he had been looking around, seemingly searching for something.
Upon hearing Shang Dongyuan’s voice, he barely returned to his senses, nodding absentmindedly, "Mm..."
When Chu Xiaoge heard the commotion from the crowd, she curiously glanced toward the entrance and was stunned to see that the person walking beside Lou Xining was... Alan?
She felt as if she had been hit by some powerful spell, completely unable to move!
Alan... her once good friend, whom she had lost contact with for five years, suddenly appeared in front of her...
Chu Xiaoge was stunned for a long time, until Guo Qing found her.
"Miss Chu, Mr. Shang is looking for you." Guo Qing already knew about the relationship between Chu Xiaoge and Shang Dongyuan, but since Shang Dongyuan had not formally announced Chu Xiaoge’s status, Guo Qing couldn’t call her Young Madam.
Calling her secretary would also lack respect, so he could only temporarily address her as Miss Chu.
Chu Xiaoge suddenly snapped back to reality, not daring to wonder why Shang Dongyuan was looking for her, hurriedly preparing to leave, "I... I have something to do, I need to go!"
After saying that, she ignored Guo Qing’s surprised expression, put down her work, and prepared to leave through the back door.
Guo Qing naturally wouldn’t stop her, but unfortunately, if Guo Qing didn’t stop her, someone else surely wouldn’t let Chu Xiaoge leave so freely.
Murong Jialan had already approached, with Miao Miao following her, continuously flattering her along the way.
Alan had grown up being flattered, and was completely indifferent to Miao Miao’s behavior, even a bit repulsed.
"I’m thirsty, is there any juice?" Alan just wanted an excuse to send Miao Miao away.
Having someone like her around was truly uncomfortable!
Miao Miao didn’t notice the impatience in Alan’s eyes, and quickly nodded obsequiously, "Yes, Miss Murong, please wait a moment."
Of course, Miao Miao didn’t intend to get the juice herself. She quickly spotted Chu Xiaoge’s back and immediately rushed over to her, "Miss Murong wants juice, go get a cup right away."
"I have something to do." Chu Xiaoge said as she tried to leave, not daring to face Alan.
She felt she had no face to meet Alan...
Five years of separation, there were too many things to explain, she was really afraid she couldn’t explain it clearly.
Or to put it more bluntly.
She was afraid Alan would resent her for disappearing for five years without a word.
She had already borne the animosity of her parents, she feared her good friend would also come to resent her...
Chu Xiaoge wanted to leave, but Miao Miao wouldn’t let her go, glaring at her, "Don’t tell me you can’t even handle this small task? Evan personally brought you in, do you want to embarrass her by bringing a useless person into the company?"
"You! Evan has always been responsible. I’ll go." Biting her lip, Chu Xiaoge didn’t want Evan to be criticized because of her.
Ever since she came into Gambling Stone City, Evan had been taking care of her.
Leaving that remark behind, Chu Xiaoge quickly headed to the place responsible for cold drinks.
Miao Miao hadn’t specified what kind of juice to get, whether warm or cold. Chu Xiaoge glanced at the outdoor temperature, it was nearly thirty degrees and unbearably stuffy.
