Chapter 72 Whose Man Was Stealed?

Looking at the girl's indifferent face, Gu Zhou chuckled.

"You don't believe me?"

Sheng Jiaoyang tapped her fingers lightly on the menu twice. "Did I say I didn't believe you?"

Gu Zhou raised an eyebrow, leaned forward, and said, "But your expression doesn't seem like you believe me."

Sheng Jiaoyang's lips curled up, and she gestured for the waiter to come and take their order. She didn't seem like someone who was eating here for the first time; her familiarity with the place was particularly surprising.

"You've eaten here before?" Gu Zhou looked at her with a hint of interest.

Some busybodies online had already dug up Xu Jiaojiao's elementary school. Apart from participating in the "Supermodel" competition, she hadn't done anything particularly special; she had always studied diligently, and apart from her good grades, she had no other outstanding qualities. Her present was a complete transformation from her past, a change from the inside out.

With Xu Jiaojiao's family's financial situation, they couldn't afford food at such a high-end restaurant, especially since Cloud Restaurant was considered the most upscale in the city, and even wealthy people couldn't eat there regularly.

"I've been here..." Sheng Jiaoyang's eyes darted around. "Yeah, right!"

Gu Zhou chuckled lightly, not dwelling on the issue. He changed the subject: "You and Lin Na haven't known each other for very long, have you? How come you're so close that such a scandal has arisen?"

"Who knows!"

"I've helped you so much this time, how are you going to repay me?" Gu Zhou looked at Sheng Jiaoyang expectantly.

"Isn't what you're helping the company?"

He steered the conversation back to the topic. Gu Zhou chuckled. This little fox who wouldn't take the bait!

Although young, she was incredibly shrewd. It seemed throwing a hook wouldn't work.

Gu Zhou cut to the chase: "Company matters are company matters. I have no obligation to help you with this. I'm only helping you because I hope you can paint a picture for me."

Sheng Jiaoyang narrowed her eyes. "There are plenty of famous painters in the world. You could easily get a famous painting. Are you just unwilling to spend the money?" After saying that, she looked at Gu Zhou suspiciously.

Gu Zhou was truly at a loss for words.

“If your work could be bought with money, you wouldn’t have refused me last time.”

Even Sheng Jiaoyang couldn’t maintain a stern face towards someone who loved her work so much. A smile played on her lips as she said, “A painting that can be drawn casually isn’t considered a work of art by a painter. A true work is painted with emotion and inspiration. That’s why it often takes a very long time to hold an exhibition, because a work requires sufficient inspiration and just the right amount of emotion.”

“If you just need a sketch of existing material, I can draw it for you right now.”

“I’m not asking you to give me one right now, but please consider me first when you have more work to do.”

Sheng Jiaoyang smiled, raising her glass for a toast. “We’ll talk about it when I have my own studio.”

“You’re not an adult yet, can you drink alcohol?” Gu Zhou looked at the glass in her hand. “Want me to give you some juice?”

The smile on Sheng Jiaoyang’s face vanished instantly. She gently swirled her glass, glancing at Gu Zhou: “Is there a law against me drinking alcohol?”

Gu Zhou laughed, seemingly having angered the little fox. But this girl’s flustered state was quite amusing.

Seeing the pleasant conversation on one side, the person secretly taking photos was having a blast, sending them back almost immediately after each set, giving the entertainment editor enough time to edit the text.

Soon, an entertainment news item immediately attracted the attention of many netizens.

[Gu Zhou dines with his junior sister, his facial expressions throughout are quite eye-catching.]

Clicking on the content revealed this: "

I was staking out Gu Zhou today, and then I saw (attached picture 1) (attached picture 2) (attached picture 3)..." Gu Zhou had a doting smile on his face the whole time, while the junior sister opposite him rarely smiled. It seems that Gu Zhou is the one taking the initiative in this relationship. So even male gods can pursue someone so passionately! This junior sister's charm is truly off the charts. She was previously ambiguous with international actress Lina, and now she's being pursued ardently by Gu Zhou. If I had even a tenth of her talent, I wouldn't be here eating dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).

The attached pictures clearly showed Gu Zhou's expressions and behavior; he basically had a smile on his face, some deep, some shallow.

Comments flooded in below.

["I'll drink this dog food!"] [

So, the male god confessed successfully?]

[So heartbreaking, so heartbreaking!]

[I was caught off guard and suddenly got a handful of dog food!]

...

Other gossip news followed suit one after another, just with different names and phrases.

After dinner, Sheng Jiaoyang went to the restroom while Gu Zhou paid the bill, but when she came out, she was "tied" to a private room on the top floor.

"Go in, the boss is waiting for you inside."

Sheng Jiaoyang rubbed her wrist, which was sore from being pulled, glared at the tall guy beside her, and cursed him in her heart that he would never find a girlfriend in his life!

When she pushed open the door, she heard a female voice from inside.

"...I don't care, you have to prove it to me, or don't expect me to give up." This was said in English.

Almost as soon as she pushed open the door, the two people inside looked at her.

Shen the Demon King, oh, Shen Zhining, sat there, his expression indifferent. Sitting opposite him was a foreign woman with gray curly hair, deep, captivating eyes, a high nose, and brightly colored lipstick—a true beauty, easily rivaling the pretty girl in looks.

Daisy Stanley?

She'd seen this girl at Andy's grandma's birthday party last year. Daisy was busy talking to Shen the Demon King then, which gave her plenty of time to talk to Andy's grandma. At the time, she'd quite admired Daisy; she'd actually put up with Shen the Demon King's unpredictable temper and dared to actively cling to him. Tsk tsk!

Daisy's gaze was like an infrared scanner, wanting to see every detail of Sheng Jiaoyang as she entered. Her eyes were now rather fierce, like a lioness defending her territory.

"Did I disturb you? Then I'll go out first—" Sheng Jiaoyang was about to leave.

"Come here!" Shen Zhining uttered two words.

Daisy looked at Shen Zhining, then at the slowly moving Sheng Jiaoyang. She pointed at Sheng Jiaoyang and questioned Shen Zhining, "You mean her?"

"Yes." Shen Zhining replied calmly.

Daisy stood up and walked towards Sheng Jiaoyang. Under Sheng Jiaoyang's wary gaze, she circled her once, then puffed out her chest and looked at her arrogantly, saying, "Bitch, do you know whose man you stole?" "

..." Sheng Jiaoyang was stunned.

"What does she have that I don't? She's ugly and has a bad figure!" Daisy turned to Shen Zhining, "Are you blind?"

"..." Holy crap, girl, you're amazing!

Sheng Jiaoyang silently gave her a thumbs up.

Wait, something's not right, wasn't that an insult?

Realizing this, Sheng Jiaoyang's temper flared.
