Chapter 86: Sister-in-law, how did you chase after Brother Gu?

Was it because she was sitting there blocking his internet connection?

Or was it because her breathing interrupted his train of thought?

Jian Yao’s face clearly displayed the words “unreasonable and making a fuss.”

Gu Zhiyan helplessly shook his head, “Alright, it’s my fault! I lack self-control.”

She was just sitting there, but his heart was already in turmoil.

He had been sitting there for two hours, recognizing every word on the document, but he couldn’t remember them when they were put together.

He put down his pen, closed the document, and pressed his temples, as if he had finally decided to make peace with himself and stop tormenting himself.

He reached out and pressed the company’s internal line, dialing Xu Assistant’s number, “Inform everyone, we’ll finish work early and go for dinner.”

…

The hotel received Xu Assistant’s call and was already meticulously preparing. Their young master was treating his employees to dinner at his own place, so the banquet was naturally set up to the highest standard.

Therefore, although there were many people, the dishes were served quickly.

Gu Zhiyan’s table was filled with the leaders of various departments, but they were all relatively young and had high emotional intelligence, so there was no awkward silence.

Gu Zhiyan, as the host and their superior, usually scolded them like dogs during meetings. Now that they finally had a chance, with his sister-in-law backing them up, they took turns pouring him drinks.

Under normal circumstances, Gu Zhiyan wouldn’t bother with them, but he was in a good mood today, so he accompanied them for a few drinks.

Jian Yao was afraid he would get drunk, so she specially pinched a grape and poked Gu Zhiyan’s arm, whispering, “It’s for hangover.”

Gu Zhiyan lowered his eyes to see her slender white fingers holding a crystal clear grape, brought close to his face.

He didn’t reach out to take it, he directly lowered his head and bit the grape from Jian Yao’s fingertips, using his tongue to roll it into his mouth.

Jian Yao’s mind went blank, feeling an electric shock as she withdrew her hand, subconsciously rubbing her fingertips, her ears turning crimson.

Actually, Gu Zhiyan was very measured, he didn’t touch her fingertips at all, but she just couldn’t control her heartbeat.

She secretly glanced at Gu Zhiyan beside her, seeing that he didn’t show any unusual reaction, as if he didn’t take what just happened to heart, the light in her eyes dimmed.

However, Pei Yi, sitting opposite her, saw the change in Jian Yao’s expression, then looked at Gu Zhiyan beside her, who was so nervous that he almost crushed the cup, a hint of interest flashed in his eyes.

After dinner, someone suggested going to sing, so a large group of people went to a bar.

In the private room, Pei Yi glanced at Jian Yao who was sitting next to Gu Zhiyan, a smile in his narrow phoenix eyes.

“Sister-in-law, do you want to play Truth or Dare?”

It’s a classic drinking game.

The most important thing when going out to have fun is to be happy!

Jian Yao wasn’t someone who would spoil the fun, she gently nodded, “Okay!”

Pei Yi took an empty wine bottle from the table, as if he had a sudden idea, “Then how about we spin the bottle?”

As soon as he said this, the lively private room seemed to fall silent for a moment, everyone’s eyes turned to him.

Even Gu Zhiyan, who had been leaning against Jian Yao and closing his eyes, lifted his eyelids to look over.

Spinning the bottle is arguably the easiest drinking game, whoever the bottle points to after spinning, they receive a punishment, simple and mostly based on luck.

There’s nothing wrong with the game itself, the problem is with Pei Yi.

Spinning the bottle is his forte, he can almost always spin it accurately.

Every high-level executive present has been deeply affected by this, avoiding him like the plague.

Jian Yao thought Pei Yi was taking care of her, fearing that she wouldn’t know how to play if it was too complicated, she gratefully looked at him, and readily agreed, “Okay.”

Gu Zhiyan facepalmed.

He was being sold and still counting the money for the buyer.

Hearing Jian Yao’s agreement, Pei Yi’s eyes lit up, he immediately waved his hand for everyone to sit down, “Sit down, everyone sit down, I’ll go first.”

Everyone knew this guy was going to cause trouble, naturally no one would compete with him, they silently watched the show.

His slender white fingers gripped the bottle and spun it hard, the bottle spun several times, as if it had a built-in GPS, the mouth of the bottle pointed directly at Jian Yao.

Jian Yao was still wide-eyed, waiting to see the fun, but she was the one who became the fun.

Although the high-level executives present had already known this would happen, their eyes still widened like copper bells.

So direct?

Not even a buffer?

Pei Yi asked Jian Yao, “Sister-in-law, do you want to play Truth or Dare?”

Jian Yao pinched her fingers, “Truth.”

Pei Yi smiled with a friendly face, “Then I’ll ask a simple one.”

His fingertips unconsciously tapped on the bottle, a gossipy light flashed in his eyes, “When you and Brother Gu got together, who was the one who took the initiative?”

As soon as the computer industry bigwigs heard this question, they immediately pricked up their ears, curiously looking at Jian Yao.

Although they were looking forward to Jian Yao’s answer, they already had an answer in their hearts.

It must be President Gu!

He’s always been a low-key person.

He’s posting on Weibo, taking his sister-in-law to live stream, and he’s just short of carving the words “I have a wife” on his forehead.

Moreover, he’s throwing such a big party today, it’s almost like the company’s annual party.

He’s so awesome!

For Jian Yao, this question was indeed quite simple.

She pondered for a moment and decisively answered.

“It was me.”

“Ah?”

Except for Pei Yi, who knew the truth and looked at Gu Zhiyan with a smile, everyone else was so surprised that their jaws almost dropped.

Was it actually the wife who took the initiative?

They thought that Gu Zhiyan, a straight-laced man, would only be the one who fell in love and pursued others, and wouldn’t give anyone else the chance to pursue him!

Someone asked curiously.

“Then, Sister-in-law, how did you chase after Brother Gu?”

Gu Zhiyan’s identity and appearance were there, over the years, countless people had had thoughts about him, just the assistant in the president’s office had been changed several times.

Gu Zhiyan always had a “don’t touch me” attitude.

They were really curious how Jian Yao managed to win over the handsome man.

They were all a bunch of geeks who coded all day long, they could refer to this, maybe they could use it to chase after their wives in the future?

Recalling her own recklessness that night, actually, until now, Jian Yao didn’t know why Gu Zhiyan didn’t push her away, this drunkard.

Maybe, because they were old classmates?

Under the spotlight of everyone’s attention, Jian Yao nervously pursed her lips, her face flushed before she even spoke.

“I just… directly stopped him at the bar and asked him if he wanted to get engaged with me!”

Everyone looked at each other: ???

It felt like every word Sister-in-law said was so unfamiliar.

President Gu went to a bar himself?

Directly stopped him and asked him if he wanted to get engaged?

How fantastical!

Some people were still unconvinced and continued to ask, “Then what?”

Jian Yao innocently said, “Then we got engaged and got married!”

Everyone: …

So, all those women who couldn’t chase after Gu Zhiyan before, was it because they were too subtle?

Actually, Gu Zhiyan likes the wild type?

Everyone turned their heads in unison, looking at Gu Zhiyan.

It turns out that Gu Zhiyan looks serious on the surface, but he’s actually a reserved but secretly passionate type!

Gu Zhiyan faced everyone’s questioning gazes, his eyes narrowed slightly, and when his dark eyes swept over them, it made people involuntarily feel a chill down their spines.

A group of people immediately turned their heads.

The lights in this private room are good, they’re bright enough!

The sofa is also good, it didn’t collapse even with so many people sitting on it!

…

Because it was Jian Yao’s turn last time, so this time it was Jian Yao’s turn to spin the bottle.

Without Pei Yi, everyone else was at the same level, relying entirely on luck, and quite a few people made a lot of jokes because of the truth or dare.

When the atmosphere was at its most lively, the bottle landed in Pei Yi’s hands again.

The green bottle spun rapidly on the table, then the mouth of the bottle slowly shifted, slowly stopping in front of Gu Zhiyan.

Everyone stretched their necks: Wow!

President Pei is awesome!
