Chapter 315: Has His Sweetheart Returned? (Part 5)
Gu Han suddenly looked up, and only then realized that this was the elevator. Shengshi Group’s elevators were cleaned every three hours, practically as clean as glass. Sheng Jianan must have seen the reflection of the message on his phone.
Cold sweat immediately broke out on Gu Han’s back, and feeling guilty like a thief, he pressed down on the pocket holding his phone.
"Well...um...the weather’s really nice today, the birds are chirping, flowers are blooming, and it’s pouring rain."
Sheng Jianan casually withdrew his gaze. Gu Han quickly raised his hand as if to swear, "Bro, you can rest assured a thousand times over, I would absolutely never do something like try to steal someone’s girlfriend."
With a serious face as if making a vow, Sheng Jianan suddenly laughed, his trademark arrogance flickering across his eyes, mixed with a hint of contempt, "Steal someone’s girlfriend? You think you could?"
Gu Han: "..."
Damn, this is an insult to his charm as a man!!!
Gu Han opened his mouth to retort, but seeing the look on Sheng Jianan’s face and his inexplicable imposing aura, Gu Han silently closed his mouth.
Fine, when it comes to looks, he still seems to fall short.
Sheng Jianan raised an eyebrow, quite appreciating someone’s current look of defeat. Only insecure men fear rivals in love, and he doesn’t believe that with him around, that woman would still be interested in other men.
In a great mood, Sheng Jianan even hummed a couple of tunes as he exited the elevator. Gu Han looked terrified, wondering when his big brother even learned to sing?
However, Sheng Jianan’s good mood didn’t last long. As they walked out of Shengshi, Xiao Li respectfully opened the car door, and Sheng Jianan and Gu Han both got into the back seat. Xiao Li closed their door and returned to the driver’s seat. Just as he was fastening his seatbelt, he heard a phone ringing from the back.
Xiao Li didn’t pay attention, busying himself with what he needed to do.
Gu Han took out his phone from his pocket; it was a text message from Tang Yanqi replying to him: [You got this.]
Seeing those three words, Gu Han nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood.
"You got this?" What the heck does that mean?
Gu Han reached out, wanting to type a few words in reply, but suddenly felt a cold air coming directly toward him. Hesitantly, he glanced at the person next to him. Sheng Jianan’s eyes were half-closed, his fingers tapping the edge of the car window one by one.
His thin lips were slightly pursed, eyebrows slightly raised, looking a bit like a mafia boss from a TV drama, as if in the next second he might pull out a gun and shoot him.
Gu Han gulped and shifted in the opposite direction of Sheng Jianan. Weren’t they just fine? How did he manage to offend this big shot again?
Sheng Jianan’s other hand rested in his coat pocket, where others couldn’t see, his fingers rubbing slowly against his phone. He had just set his phone’s ring volume to maximum, with vibration mode on, but there wasn’t a peep from his phone.
Yet it was Gu Han’s side that received a message first.
Young Master Sheng certainly knew it didn’t count for much, but damn it, he couldn’t help feeling irked that the woman had replied to another man’s message first.
"Ding."
The temperature inside the car almost dropped to freezing, and even Xiao Li in the front shivered involuntarily. Sheng Jianan’s phone finally dinged, and almost immediately, he pulled out his phone to look at the message: [Hmm, nothing much.]
He had asked her if there was anything she had her eye on, as she hadn’t used her card, and she replied, "Nothing much." Sheng Jianan squinted his eyes again, and the phone rang once more.
