C4 Let's be a Couple

Tang Haochen was dressed in black and white, and his figure was tall and straight. He walked over leisurely. His gaze was indifferent and distant as he looked around, but when he approached her, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

"Director Tang." Gu Mian almost called out 'Little Uncle'. Realizing that the situation was not right, she immediately changed her words.

Tang Haochen was old master Rong's youngest son, Rong Xiu's little uncle. The reason why his surname was not Rong was because Master Rong had passed him over to a loyal comrade. Although his surname had changed, he still had the shares of Rong's Group. Moreover, he had five percent more shares than Rong Xiu.

Gu Mian looked behind him and said with a smile, "Why didn't Director Tang bring a female companion today?"

In her impression, this uncle had never appeared in such a public place, especially in an event organized by Rong's Group.

Tang Haochen's eyes were clear, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. "Manager Gu doesn't seem to have any male companions, so why don't we become a couple?"

Gu Mian was first stunned. She turned around and smiled. She lowered her voice and said. "I didn't think that Little Uncle would be so humorous."

Tang Haochen did not think much of it, "I did not mean to joke."

He smiled, but his eyes were firm.

Therefore, he was serious.

Gu Mian realized that something was wrong with Tang Haochen, but before she could think about it, there was a commotion at the scene.

She and Tang Haochen turned to look at the entrance at the same time.

The black, handmade suit was a birthday present she gave him last year. The white collar of the shirt and his black checkered tie complemented each other. An exquisite tie pin was placed at the most appropriate place. This was Rong Xiu. He was a king who came from a family with a golden key. Wherever he went, he would stir up a storm and attract the attention of everyone.

Didn't he say he wasn't going to attend? Why...

Thinking of this, Gu Mian suddenly noticed that Rong Xiu's arm was being held by another woman with delicate makeup. That woman was Qiu Li, who she found out had an affair yesterday. She was a good employee that she trained.

When she left Qiu Li in the Sales Department, it was really a wrong decision. It was already too late for her to regret now.

At this time, Qiu Li was smiling like a flower as she snuggled up to Gu Mian's husband and greeted all the guests present in place of Gu Mian.

"What is he messing around with again!"

With a low rebuke from Tang Haochen, Gu Mian thought that he was going to step forward to stop him and immediately reached out her hand to hold him.

"Forget it. Let him do as he pleases."

After so many years, was there not much news about him? She had long gotten used to it.

Tang Haochen wanted to say something, but found it meaningless. He lowered his head and looked at Gu Mian's hand holding his wrist. Her fingers were long and white, and the warm touch made him feel dizzy for a moment.

"Is he still the same to you now?" Tang Haochen could not help but ask.

Gu Mian let go of her hands and rubbed her arms that were slightly cold from the cold air. She lowered her eyes and smiled, "He is very good to me."

It was just that even she herself would not believe these words.

In the crowd, Rong Xiu coldly glanced over and saw Gu Mian holding a man's hand. Tang Haochen?

His eyes became increasingly cold.

The organizer's speech.

Gu Mian, as the chief planner, spoke on behalf of the Rong's Group. When the curtain was closed, someone suddenly asked her, "Ms Gu, as Mr Rong's wife, are you not going to express your opinion on Mr Rong bringing other female companions to attend the ceremony?"

The person who asked the question was Tang Haochen's assistant. The person who dared to ask such a question openly in front of Rong Xiu was obviously given permission by Tang Haochen.

Rong Xiu looked over without batting an eyelid. His eyes were focused on the man in black and white.

Tang Haochen, he remembered!

On the stage, where the spotlight was concentrated, Gu Mian still had a delicate and appropriate smile. She said softly, "I am the chief planner of the event. It is my duty to greet all of you. I do not have the time to be Mr Rong's female companion, so I arranged for our Sales Department employee, Qiu Li!"

The seemingly generous and proper words not only spoke for Rong Xiu, but also hinted at Qiu Li's identity. A small employee could not get on the stage and could not cause any trouble.

Rong Xiu did not think so. The reason he brought Qiu Li to attend was to agitate Gu Mian. Who knew that this woman did not understand the style at all. Not only was she not angry, but she also felt that it was reasonable.

He immediately shook off Qiu Li's hand and picked up his phone to call his assistant, "From today onwards, Gu Mian is not allowed to interfere in the planning of the event!"

The assistant on the other side of the phone had a look of shock. What was going on?!

Rong Xiu hung up the phone and went to the washroom. When he came out, he bumped into Tang Haochen. The two of them were walking towards the sink.

Tang Haochen glanced at Rong Xiu. The way he said it was to educate the younger generation. "Is it fun? Aren't you afraid that the old man will hear about this?"

"I'm afraid." Rong Xiu opened the valve and slowly washed his hands. He did not even look up. "So, is Little Uncle going to report me?"

Although he did not grow up in the Rong family, Tang Haochen knew his nephew's temperament very well. He ignored Rong Xiu's teasing and glared at him. "Do you deserve Gu Mian like this?"

Rong Xiu's hands paused and then turned off the water. He looked at Tang Haochen seriously, "Little uncle seems to be very concerned about my wife? What, do you like her?"

Thinking about the scene where Gu Mian held Tang Haochen's hand, Rong Xiu felt irritated.

When had she ever treated him like that?

He thought Tang Haochen would deny it, but he did not expect Tang Haochen to be so calm. He looked at him firmly. "If you continue to hurt her like this, I don't mind taking care of her for you."

If his surname wasn't Tang, but Rong, The one who married Gu Mian was Tang Haochen. Rong Xiu did not have the chance. He did not cherish the opportunity he got!

The two men did not speak again. They looked at each other for a while and then returned to the venue one after the other.

The banquet went on for two hours. Gu Mian wore 10cm high heels and sent all the guests away. She was exhausted all over and her feet were in extreme pain.

Rong Xiu brought Qiu Li away in advance and did not care about her at all.

On the other hand, Tang Haochen had always been by her side. Thinking of Tang Haochen's abnormal behavior, she wanted to refuse but could not say anything.

Tang Haochen was also a member of the Rong's, so it was only natural for him to stay and see the guests off. She had no reason to reject him.

She walked out of the hotel. When she walked down the stairs, Gu Mian's high heels were not firmly stepped on. She twisted her ankle and stumbled, landing right in Tang Haochen's arms. "Are you okay?"

In her panic, Gu Mian raised her eyes to meet Tang Haochen's deep gaze. Under the light, it was as warm as jade and dazzling.

"I'm fine." Gu Mian shook her head and steadied her body, pulling away from him.

"Are you going home?" she asked. I'll take you home." Tang Haochen's eyes were clear. He did not speak to her as coldly as the others.

"No need. My assistant has come to pick me up." Gu Mian shook her head again.

Actually, she did not call her assistant at all. She lied to reject Tang Haochen.

As for why she rejected him, she could not say.
