Chapter 260: Confession Rejected
He wanted to see Gu Tiantian. He didn’t even wait for Jiang Meili to finish speaking and asked her to immediately call the receptionist to have Gu Tiantian come to him, using the president’s special elevator.
By making it so clear, he didn’t believe that Gu Tiantian wouldn’t understand his intentions.
However, Cheng Junnan misjudged Gu Tiantian’s emotional intelligence.
If it were Shen Yu doing this, she probably would get it quickly.
But Cheng Junnan...well...
Could she imagine a corporate bigwig who just slapped her not long ago, whom she barely had a few encounters with, would actually have thoughts about her?
Sorry, her imagination might sometimes be wild, but definitely not to that extent.
"Tian Tian, why didn’t you inform me when you were discharged from the hospital?"
Looking at Gu Tiantian, whose eyes were a bit puffy with dark circles, Cheng Junnan frowned.
To Gu Tiantian, this looked like it meant something else.
Was President Cheng annoyed she didn’t inform him about her discharge?
Was it because of the hospital bills?
Thinking about this, as well as the expenses on her grandma’s side, she immediately spoke up.
"President Cheng, how much were the hospitalization fees in total?"
Cheng Junnan was taken aback, not expecting Gu Tiantian to ask this question upon seeing him.
Instead of...whether he was tired from dealing with all the chaos caused by the company’s top actress?
Seeing Gu Tiantian’s pure and innocent eyes, Cheng Junnan suddenly felt a bit defeated.
What he thought was an incredibly straightforward confession, probably seemed like nothing to Gu Tiantian.
"Tian Tian, I like you!"
Suddenly, Cheng Junnan stood up, leaning slightly forward, getting closer to Gu Tiantian.
His breath almost entirely spurted onto Gu Tiantian’s face as he spoke, given the particularly close distance.
Gu Tiantian blushed, instinctively taking two small steps back to create some space between her and Cheng Junnan.
"President Cheng, have you been drinking too much?"
Otherwise, how could he forget she had appeared with Bai Chenyao before? There’s no need for her to explain their relationship; someone as experienced in business as Cheng Junnan couldn’t possibly not know, right?
So, the only answer was that the company’s bigwig, Cheng Junnan, had too much to drink.
Hearing Gu Tiantian’s words, Cheng Junnan was suddenly choked up.
What does it mean that he had too much to drink?
Trying to maintain a warm demeanor, Cheng Junnan leaned a bit closer to Gu Tiantian, even propping his hands on the desk, his voice low and pleasant.
"Gu Tiantian, it’s morning now, and I don’t have the habit of drinking first thing in the morning. However, in the evenings... there’s more drinking due to social engagements, but I always have control and never get drunk! So, I’m very clear about what I’m saying now."
"You must be curious why I’m suddenly confessing to you. Even I find it strange that I’m interested in a little girl I’ve only met a few times, and I can’t forget about it even if I try!"
If it’s so straightforward and Gu Tiantian still doesn’t understand, then she’d be an idiot.
Understood!
But she was dumbfounded!
The company bigwig confessing?
Isn’t that stressing her fragile little heart?
In a moment of clarity, Gu Tiantian decisively shook her head.
"President Cheng, I don’t like you. Of course, I am very grateful to you for saving me and my grandma at our home that day, thank you!"
Saying this, Gu Tiantian stepped back two more small steps, then gave Cheng Junnan a deep bow.
Cheng Junnan didn’t expect Gu Tiantian to refuse him outright without even considering it.
For someone who has always had smooth sailing in the business world, it was difficult to accept.
Staring straight at Gu Tiantian, watching her serious expression, Cheng Junnan felt like his heart was being punched pretty hard.
[Four updates finished. Enjoy reading, everyone. It seems like President Cheng hasn’t appeared for a long time, and as soon as he shows up, it’s this situation...looks like an unsuccessful move (covering face, runs away!)]
