My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy

Chapter 90: 90 He Dug the Pit_1

For a split second, my mind raced with possibilities, and my hand unconsciously clung to my purse.

I thought that if he dared lay a hand on me, I would slam him in the head with my bag.

However, a few seconds later, he simply fastened my seatbelt for me and then started the car.

I finally breathed a sigh of relief, realizing he had no such intentions.

After all, having his own sweet young lover, why would he be interested in another woman?

Gu Yuanzhou is a very calm man.

His driving is steady, with impeccable manners on the road — never cuts lanes, overtakes, and always stays within the same lane until the very end.

Thus, anytime he was at the wheel when traveling with me and the kid, never once did we have an accident.

So, whenever he drove, I always felt safe enough to close my eyes and relax in his car.

This time was no different.

I fell asleep in the car.

When I woke up, the car had already stopped.

In the dimly lit space, Gu Yuanzhou was smoking, his eyebrows furrowed as if struggling with a heavy worry.

Only then did I realize we had arrived at the parking lot of the Binhai Restaurant and quickly uttered an apology,

“I’m sorry, I overslept.”

He didn’t blame me but looked at me with a meaningful gaze,

“Haven’t you been sleeping well these days?”

“Yes!”

“Why?”

“There have been many things happening lately, exceeding my knowledge! Have you been sleeping well recently, President Gu?”

I asked him back.

Actually, although I was lucky to remain by his side, I never had a chance to see him in sleep.

I wondered if he has nightmares?

If he feels unease?

Gu Yuanzhou did not hide, he directly gave me a three-word answer,

“Can’t sleep!”

His voice was a bit hoarse, inadvertently revealing a hint of tiredness.

Is he really not sleeping well?

Is he afraid his secret affair will be uncovered?

The lights outside the car window shined in, half of his face hidden in darkness, half of his face was highlighted by the light, making him look exceptionally gloomy.

In the interplay of light and shadow, I suddenly felt this man was unfamiliar.

I originally wanted to suggest, if you’re not sleeping well, I can recommend a doctor.

But his phone rang all of a sudden, he answered a call, and then said,

“Get out of the car, my friend is here!”

“Oh, okay!”

After Gu Yuanzhou left, my phone rang.

I looked at it, it was a call from Wenya.

“Ayun, are you free? I want to talk to you!”

“Hmm, a little later! I have something to deal with now!”

“Ah…..by the way, have you visited Ding Yinuo yet? Is he okay?”

“I did, he’s fine! Just suffered some superficial injuries.”

She suddenly asked, “What do you think of Ding Yinuo as a person?”

I walked into the restaurant while holding my phone,

“What, you’re in love with him?”

“I’m being serious, can you not joke around?”

I thought for a few seconds, actually, Yinuo and I have been acquainted since childhood.

Although he always messed with me, his values and character were all upstanding.

“Wenya, if you’re considering marriage, I think Yinuo is your best option. It would be more reliable marrying him than any other man.”

“Hehe, you think so highly of him?”

“Just stating the truth…why, are you interested in him?”

“Ah, it’s useless if I am, that bastard won’t fall in love with me.”

“Then why are you asking me? Are you just messing with me?”

“No, no, a friend of mine likes him, I just wanted to inquire…”

“Your so-called meetup, is it because of this?”

“Of course not, contact me when you’re free! It’s something else, I was just asking casually about the Yinuo thing.”

“Okay, we’ll be in touch later.”

After hanging up the phone,

I looked up to see Gu Yuanzhou standing in the private room, looking at me with a strange expression.

“What is it, President Gu?”

“Why did you order this?”

I curiously walked into the private room and saw that there was not only a man in the room but also two young women.

They were quite attractive, with fiery figures…

Clearly, these two women were there to accompany the guests, and after a while, I remembered that when I booked the private room earlier,

The front desk had asked if I needed any drinks service.

At that time, I thought they were talking about beverages and didn’t expect that two such services would also be included.

Although I had ordered it by mistake, it seemed like this could also be an opportunity to test Gu Yuanzhou’s love.

“Oh, President Gu, I heard that the drink companion service at this place is quite good, so I thought I should get you some dessert after drinking!”

Gu Yuanzhou didn’t seem appreciative of my good intentions.

“Send them away! Don’t order this again!”

“Don’t your friends need it?”

“No need!”

Gu Yuanzhou didn’t hesitate at all and directly refused.

Well, perhaps, he genuinely loves Ye Mengyan, so these superficial women did not catch his eye at all.

The two women were sent out…

Only then did the food start to be served.

Although the private room wasn’t big, it was decorated very elegantly.

Gu Yuanzhou removed his suit jacket and poured a drink for the man.

I had met this man before; his name was Ayu, seemingly, an old friend of Gu Yuanzhou’s.

They both came from lower-class backgrounds, but similarly worked their way up slowly.

However, this Ayu seemed to have followed a nefarious path, previously opening casinos, KTVs, nightclubs… He was wealthy, but exuded something ominous.

Therefore, I used to vehemently oppose him hanging out with Ayu.

Perhaps due to my opposition, Gu Yuanzhou rarely hung out with Ayu afterwards, probably not seeing him even once a year.

Now, maybe because he was not hindered by his wife anymore, Gu Yuanzhou seemed somewhat unrestrained.

Once seated, he started chatting and drinking with Ayu, reminiscing while drinking.

I was originally sitting next to the table, merely playing the role of an assistant.

Apart from keeping an eye on the food, I was engrossed in playing with my phone.

However, I didn’t know which nerve Ayu hit, he beckoned me over with his finger, “Come, sit here!”

I was confused, but still, I moved to sit opposite Ayu as he instructed.

Ayu’s scheming eyes scanned over me for a long time, and then he poured me a glass of red wine.

“Sister, how’s it going, working for your President Gu?”

I turned my head and glanced at Gu Yuanzhou.

After a few drinks, Gu Yuanzhou’s cheeks were tinged with a faint red.

Regarding Ayu’s actions, he seemed quite indifferent, as if he did not intend to take a stand for me.

“Um, President Gu is very nice, I think there’s a lot of potential working with him!”

“What do you think about him as a person?”

Ayu’s leading questions, I couldn’t guess his intention.

I smiled, played dumb, “Do you even need to ask? President Gu’s capabilities are among the top in the city. Additionally, he’s responsible, family-oriented, affable, I think he’s excellent.”

Ayu nodded, giving a thumbs up, “Then, if I were to make a request, and you need to sacrifice something for your President Gu, would you be willing?”
