Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession

Chapter 547: Cheng Junnan’s Direct Approach

Gu Tiantian felt someone was looking at her and seemed to have been staring for a while.

Groggily opening her eyes, she saw a white expanse before her and then realized she was in Cheng Junnan’s hospital room. Cheng Junnan had gotten injured saving her and remained unconscious.

She was by his side watching over him, but unexpectedly, she fell asleep in the process.

A trace of annoyance flashed across her face as Gu Tiantian quickly lifted her head.

Facing Cheng Junnan’s gentle and doting gaze, Gu Tiantian froze all over and instinctively avoided his eyes, her voice slightly hurried.

"President Cheng, you’re awake."

Hearing Gu Tiantian’s address for him, Cheng Junnan frowned.

"Tian Tian, I’ve always thought, even if you resign, we should still be friends."

She and he were worlds apart. If it weren’t for her job at Haitian Entertainment, she and Cheng Junnan wouldn’t have any connection; how could they become friends?

"President Cheng, I"

"Call me Cheng Junnan, or would you prefer to call me Jun Nan?"

Gu Tiantian widened her eyes in astonishment, vehemently denying.

"How could that be possible?"

Seeing her eyes opened wide, her doll-like face full of seriousness and solemnity, Cheng Junnan burst into laughter, his expression growing even gentler.

"Then call me Cheng Junnan, no more compromises or I’m going to assume you want to call me Jun Nan and want me to call you beautiful!"

Gu Tiantian: "..."

Why hadn’t she noticed before that the always gentle and approachable President Cheng could have such a roguish side?

But considering Cheng Junnan’s identity, how could she possibly know the side of him that he didn’t want others to see?

Gu Tiantian looked somewhat embarrassed, not saying a word.

Even though Cheng Junnan spoke gently, his eyes were always observant of Gu Tiantian’s expressions, and upon noticing the self-mockery in her eyes, he just felt a bit unsettled inside.

"Tian Tian, I... just want you to know, I really"

She didn’t want to hear Cheng Junnan continue, worried that if she did, it would be awkward and embarrassing, difficult to advance or retreat, so she quickly interrupted.

"I understand, I’ll call you by your name, Cheng Junnan."

Though knowing Gu Tiantian was reluctant, Cheng Junnan felt that even employing a bit of a rogue method was harmless, wasn’t it?

He smiled softly, noticing Gu Tiantian wanted to withdraw her hand, Cheng Junnan tightened his grip a little.

He was careful not to hurt her while ensuring Gu Tiantian couldn’t easily pull away.

"Tian Tian, I’ve been looking for you all along."

Gu Tiantian subconsciously didn’t want to hear what Cheng Junnan was going to say, quickly changing the subject.

"Cheng... Junnan, let go of me first, I’ll call the doctor to come over and check if there’s any discomfort."

Cheng Junnan wasn’t just a newcomer to society but a company president, how could he not spot Gu Tiantian’s little thoughts?

"No need, Tian Tian, I feel that even if there’s any discomfort, as long as I can see you safe and sound in front of me, I’m comfortable everywhere."

Gu Tiantian: "..."

Her cheeks flushed red; she never imagined hearing Cheng Junnan speak to her so straightforwardly.

Seeing Gu Tiantian’s face turn white with red undertones, Cheng Junnan’s heart skipped a beat, holding her soft little hand, his voice gentler, seemingly like a lover’s whisper.

"Tian Tian, I know speaking this way might scare you, but I can’t help it; I’m truly... worried you can’t understand my feelings."

So, he’d rather abandon the originally planned gentle approach and cut straight to the point, leaving her no room to evade.
