Chapter 394: Chapter 396: The Feeling of Heartflutter
This kind of undisguised, direct gaze made Gu Tiantian very uncomfortable.
Her eyes flickered, and she quickly avoided Cheng Junnan’s gaze.
"Tian Tian, why don’t you dare to look at me?"
Cheng Junnan’s voice was gentle. All along, he had been a gentle person.
No matter what his true nature was, in the eyes of others, he was as gentle as jade, elegant in demeanor, speaking softly and gracefully, with a refined and charming posture.
But listening to his gentle speech made Gu Tiantian feel very uncomfortable.
An image flashed through her mind of him in his office, speaking to her with a cold face and harsh voice, even wearing a chilling expression.
His gentleness was nothing but a facade, as his true nature was completely indifferent.
If he even had a bit of humanity, he wouldn’t have given up his office to let Bai Chenyao have his way with her.
And after Bai Chenyao left, he even asked her what was going on!
Her time at the company hadn’t been long, but Gu Tiantian had already understood one thing.
People like her, little commoners, are nothing in the eyes of bigwigs like Cheng Junnan, at most just a plaything when the mood strikes.
Thinking of this made Gu Tiantian’s blood boil inside. She quickly reached out, grabbed the lemon juice in front of her, and bit on the straw hard, taking two strong sips.
As the sourness spread from her lips and tongue, she felt like her entire mouth was about to melt away. The anger she felt toward Cheng Junnan disappeared completely, leaving only full regret.
Damn...
Cheng Junnan had clearly chosen to be the bad guy; why not commit to it completely?
Especially when she was fighting with Zhang Yuexin, if he hadn’t suddenly appeared and kicked Zhang Yuexin away, her grandmother might have really passed away.
So... she bore with the anger in her heart and chose, self-destructively, to drink the lemon juice she hated.
Cheng Junnan initially wanted to use words to force Gu Tiantian to look at him, but when he saw her suddenly angry expression and grabbing the lemon juice to drink furiously, he was stunned.
Seeing her face change from cute and doll-like to a wrinkled old lady’s after two sips of lemon juice, a sudden joy he had never felt before surged in his chest.
If he wasn’t considering Gu Tiantian’s feelings, he might have burst into laughter.
Being young is great; look at this girl’s pure and candid actions!
And... she obviously had some grudges against him.
The scene of him hitting her in the office flashed in his mind, a shadow flickered in Cheng Junnan’s eyes, then disappeared quickly.
He even guessed why Gu Tiantian didn’t explode at him directly and instead suddenly embraced the lemon juice to drink it. Most likely, it was because last time he had helped her by sending her grandmother to the hospital.
Such a simple, straightforward, yet clearly principled personality was something that made him increasingly fond of her.
If his previous attraction to Gu Tiantian was purely because of her genuine nature and those bright, pure eyes, now Cheng Junnan noticed a subtle change in his feelings.
"What a silly girl!"
Cheng Junnan’s voice was almost indulgent, then he called out to the outside.
"Bring in a cup of warm plain water! Also, I want two servings of something sweet, very soft!"
Gu Tiantian felt a tingling sensation all over, not because of Cheng Junnan’s words, but because of the lemon juice that had invaded her mouth, tongue, and even spread throughout her body.
The lemon juice’s sourness was so unbearable that she didn’t even pay attention to what Cheng Junnan said.
