Chapter 497: Lu Yaoyao Runs

autious and meticulous. 。Shu Tinglan was busy with some finishing touches on Huahua La Entertainment's projects, while also preparing for new projects and running between Huahua La and Tingjing Financ...Lu Kuo didn't eat much throughout the meal. He and Gu Ruandong weren't close, but they had known each other since childhood, a relationship that had lasted until now. Before this, although Gu Ruandong's reputation was not good in the eyes of the public, Lu Kuo was unaffected because it had nothing to do with him. Therefore, he had always greeted Gu Ruandong with a smile, which was his way of dealing with people.

If Gu Ruandong dared to make a move on Lu Yao, that would be a different story. So he kept staring at Gu Ruandong throughout the whole thing, his eyes full of warning.

But Gu Ruandong didn't care at all. While introducing his family chef's signature dishes to Lu Kuò, he also poured him wine. Throughout the whole time, he didn't look at Lu Yaoyao or Gu Ruanruan, treating the two girls as mere background decorations.

"We should invite Mr. and Mrs. Zhuo today. I heard they got married, we should celebrate." Gu Ruandong mumbled to himself, his tone was cool, but his words seemed very familiar.

All in all, he is indeed a person who is hard to figure out.

Lu Kuo maintained a cold expression throughout.

Ruan Ruan was a little afraid of her older brother, so she didn't talk much. ;

Gu Ruandong likes to wear black shirts, but not in a neat and tidy way. He likes to roll up his sleeves two sections to expose his wrists, and the two buttons at the collar are always unbuttoned, revealing his neck and collarbone. It's just that kind of rogue charm, very much like a beast in fine clothes.

I don't know why, when Gu Ruandong said they should invite Mr. and Mrs. Zhuo, neither Lu Kuo nor Ruan Ruan spoke up. Lu Yaoyao actually felt a little sorry for him, like a child who desperately wanted a playmate, really wanting to fit into a group but couldn't.

Lu Yaoyao just suddenly felt this way from him, it was very strange. But the feeling just flashed past, she thought it must be her illusion.

As the host today, she couldn't let the atmosphere get cold. Since mentioning Zhuo Y uan, she followed up by asking

When is the game you guys are co-developing going to be released

"Almost there." Gu Ruandong replied leisurely.

"Oh, when it goes public, should we get a spokesperson What do you think about me I'm really popular right now, and if you guys ask me to be your spokesperson, I can give you a friend price."

Gu Ruandong finally raised his eyes to look at her, and without thinking, refused: "No, this game is a high-IQ challenge clearance game, you are not suitable."

He deliberately emphasized the phrase "high IQ challenge," saying it with force and without reservation.

Lu Kuo gave him a cool glance, smiling without warmth.

Ruan Ruan couldn't help but laugh.

Lu Yaoyao was struck in a sensitive spot and felt ashamed. She grumbled:

"What do you mean...you're asking me about my grades when I was in school"

Gu Ruanruan thought hard. She and Lu Yaoyao were in the same class back in elementary and middle school. At that time, Lu Yaoyao did seem to always be at the bottom of the class.

To ask her to say something insincere, she really couldn't bring herself to do it, so she just smiled and remained silent.

Lu Yaoyao angrily put down her chopsticks and glared at the two people sitting opposite her.

"Are you two ganging up on me Gu Ruirui, you're the only one with a brother, am I not allowed to have one Right, brother" She then turned to look at Lu Kuo beside her, hoping he would say something.

Lu Kuò didn't speak, too lazy to pay attention to her.

Opposite Gu Ruandong spoke again, it was unclear whether he was praising her or taunting her: “Our Yaoyao might not be very smart, but she’s got high emotional intelligence.”

Gu Ruandong could tell she was trying to curry favor with him. He spent the whole night racking his brain, trying to mend the relationship between himself and Gu Ruannuan. The truth was, he didn't have any real beef with Gu Ruannuan. It was just that his grandfather had told him to keep his distance from her when they were young, so their bond never truly developed.

It took almost two hours to finish the meal. When it was over, Lu Yaoyao felt a little conflicted. Should she ask Gu Ruandong to send Ruan Ruan home, or should she ask Lu Kuo She wanted to ease the tension between Gu Ruandong and Ruan Ruan, but she also wanted to create some time for Lu Kuo and Ruan Ruan to interact.

After some thought, I feel that my brother Lu Kuo has been quite stressed these days, so tonight I must prioritize spending time with him.

"It's so late, brother, can you take Ruanruan back to school"

Lu Kuo: “Didn't you say she's staying at your place for two days”

Lu Yaoyao rolled her eyes internally, "Talkative is the downfall of a single dog!"

"Ruan Ruan's school has something temporary, you don't have to send her, I'll send her myself later."

"Okay, got it. I'll send it." Lu Kuo agreed as if he had completed a task.

Then he shouted, "Teacher Gu, let's go."

Gu Ruirui greeted Gu Ruidong and, carrying her bag, followed Lu Kuo out.

Lu YaoYao tonight didn't think about her figure as usual, she ate a bit too much and was walking around the house to burn it off. Because she didn't need to go out today, she wore pajamas and had a cute butterfly hair clip in her hair. This was very different from the dazzling celebrity image Gu Ruandong usually saw, or perhaps very different from those glamorous women he usually interacted with.

She is now clean and refreshing, just like the feeling of a neighbor's little sister.

He had his chef and kitchen assistant clean the kitchen and dining room, then they came to report to him.

“Mr. Gu, is there anything else I can do for you”

Gu Ruandong shook his head, indicating they could leave.

"Wait, I'll go with you. I ate a lot, and I might as well run downstairs." She had changed into workout clothes at some point, wearing a hat that covered half her face.

Gu Ruandong nodded, said nothing, and walked into the elevator with her.

"Aren't you afraid of being recognized if you go out yourself" Gu Ruandong asked her from the other side of the elevator.

“The community is very safe; no one here cares who I am.” The residents of her apartment complex are all either wealthy or extremely rich. Who would have the time to care if you're a celebrity Last time, it was just an accident; she’s already complained to the property management.

"That's good." He said the three words, and then didn't speak again.

As the two people stepped out of the elevator, Lu Yaoyao was about to go for a run at the fitness area in their residential complex, which was just a short distance ahead.

I went for a run, see you later.

"Go ahead." Gu Ruandong stood beside a flower bed where smoking was permitted, said a word to her, and saw her run away before taking out a cigarette and lighting it.

The community is indeed quite good, with strict security measures making it very safe. The spot where he smokes happens to offer a view of the nearby sports field. On the field, that figure wasn't running anywhere—it was walking slower than a turtle, circling the track. Still, he had quite the perseverance, slowly making laps until the last one, when he finally picked up the pace and actually ran a full circle before returning.

When passed by Gu Ruandong, she was surprised, even a little pleasantly surprised, and smiled and asked.

“Haven't you left yet”

" " he replied calmly.

"Has the driver arrived yet"

"Almost there," he replied, still a little distant.

Lu Yaoyao actually really wanted to go home. She had "run" around a few circles just now and was very thirsty now.rt, and plus he has a long-term habit of fitness, so whether he is sitting in a wheelchair or leaning on a cane, he moves with ease, light as a swallow.This extreme sports experience center, after sma...
