C17 Her Likes That's All

As soon as the words left his mouth, everyone was shocked. The originally quiet crowd instantly became noisy, and the reporters' microphones once again hit their faces.

"Mr. Gu, you and Miss Shen are not boyfriend and girlfriend, so why are there still rumors?"

"Mr. Gu, is it convenient for you to reveal the truth?"

"Mr. Gu, are you protecting your lover's identity?"

...

Gu Chenming was used to seeing big waves and big waves. He had always ignored questions that he did not want to answer and questions that he did not need to answer. He gave Chu Heng a look and Chu Heng instantly understood. He immediately started to clear the place with his bodyguards.

After opening a path, Gu Chenming ignored the reporters' questions and walked into Luo Chen's group with vigorous steps.

Shi Xiaoxi saw him come in and was suddenly at a loss. Should she clarify things with the reporters or...

Before she could think of what to do next, she heard the noise at the entrance again. The reporters were in a huge crowd and broke through the bodyguards' blockade and entered the group's entrance.

Without a doubt, Gu Chenming was once again surrounded and the reporters continued to question arrogantly.

Shi Xiaoxi stood up. She had never seen such a scene before. She was quite frightened, but she roughly understood that the reporters today dared to be so arrogant. There must be someone behind them. It seemed like they did not want an answer. They were forcing Gu Chenming to get angry so that he could write an article and criticize them.

One. The higher a person stood, the more enemies they would have. Although Shi Xiaoxi did not understand the competition in the business world, she understood the reason behind it.

Gu Chenming's cold eyes turned cold. He did not say a word. He struggled to move forward. He did not reply to the reporters' questions.

Sometimes, silence was a response, just like how Gu Chenming did not like Shi Xiaoxi.

Shi Xiaoxi wanted to help Gu Chenming escape, but these reporters were too crazy. She did not have the chance to interrupt until the huge crowd rushed to her side. No one knew who pushed her, but her knee hit the edge of the tea table. Her body leaned forward, but she didn't manage to steady herself. Her head hit the corner of the coffee table. The people behind her also fell down. She became a cushion.

Hearing the movement, Gu Chenming looked back. He did not know why, but he saw Shi Xiaoxi at first glance. He stopped walking and frowned slightly.

The reporters saw that someone had fallen and the matter had blown up. They all shivered.

Gu Chenming originally wanted to go back to the office, but Shi Xiaoxi had fallen. He actually hesitated for a few seconds. He turned around and walked to the resting area. The few people on Shi Xiaoxi's body had already stood up, but she was sweating profusely as she supported herself on the ground and did not move.

Gu Chenming bent down and asked with an indifferent expression, "Are you hurt?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Shi Xiaoxi actually felt somewhat wronged. Tears were about to roll out of her eyes and she forcefully held it back. She lowered her head and replied, "I'm fine."

Her face was pale and there was blood on her forehead. Her exposed legs and knees were also bruised. How could this be called fine?

In that instant, Gu Chenming felt as if his chest was blocked by cotton. He stretched out his hands, but he could not help but recall what Chu Heng had said last night. She had a boyfriend, so he took his hand back. Then he told the receptionist at the side, "Send her to my office."

The receptionist blinked. What?" Oh, okay."

The reporters left one after another. Only then did Chu Heng squeeze in through the door. He anxiously asked, "Mr. Gu, are you alright?"

Gu Chenming cast a sidelong glance at him and instructed, "Go and investigate the identities of these reporters."

Chu Heng was slightly stunned. "Okay."

16th floor, CEO's office.

Gu Chenming pushed open the door and entered. He saw Shi Xiaoxi sitting obediently on the sofa, like an outstanding student listening attentively to a lecture.

This was the first time she came to Gu Chenming's office and did not expect this kind of scene. Seeing him enter, Shi Xiaoxi became even more flustered. Her eyes flickered slightly and she did not dare to look directly into Gu Chenming's eyes.

Gu Chenming stood at the door and looked at her for a long time before moving. "Why are you here?"

Shi Xiaoxi quickly looked up at him and smiled faintly. "I came here to talk about cooperation."

He did not respond. The atmosphere was a little awkward. Shi Xiaoxi stood up from the sofa. She held the shoulder belt of her bag and mustered her courage to say, "That... It is time. I will leave first."

Gu Chenming frowned. The little girl who said she liked her was not willing to stay with him?

Once the idea came out, he quickly rejected it.

She already had a boyfriend, so her love was only so-so.

Gu Chenming walked to the desk with wide steps. As he turned on the computer, he said, "Stay here if you're hurt. I'll ask Chu Heng to call the manager over. If there's any cooperation, we'll talk here."

Having a crush on Gu Chenming for eight years, perhaps the fear and inferiority she felt when facing him had long been deeply rooted in her bones. Shi Xiaoxi did not refute his suggestion, but sat back down on the sofa.

Perhaps it was because Gu Chenming was there that the cooperation was very pleasant. It ended in less than ten minutes.

After the manager left, Shi Xiaoxi mustered her courage and walked to the desk. She slowly opened her mouth and said, "Actually, I can make a statement. After all, it started because of me."

Gu Chenming was signing when he heard Shi Xiaoxi's suggestion. He tightened his grip on the pen and stopped moving. He looked up at her. After a while, he said, "Do you care what others think?"
