Li Yan also frowned, looking at President Liu with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.
"Mr. Liu, it's not very nice of you to talk like that. It's our business if we don't cooperate. There's no need for you to make sarcastic remarks here."
Although her voice was soft, it carried an undeniable air of authority, somewhat like... Gu Tingyan's temperament.
Seeing Gu Tingyan and Li Yan's reactions, President Liu felt a little scared, but he still tried to remain calm.
"Hmph, Mr. Gu, you'll regret this. There are many people eager to cooperate on this project."
Li Yan was utterly speechless at President Liu's sarcastic remarks.
She glanced at Gu Tingyan and suddenly had an idea. She deliberately acted extremely close to Gu Tingyan.
Li Yan affectionately took Gu Tingyan's arm: "Ayan, what good projects could someone like him possibly have?"
Her voice was as soft and sweet as a docile kitten whining.
Gu Tingyan was taken aback at first, but then he understood Li Yan's intention. He cooperated with Li Yan, looking at her with affection and gently touching her hair.
"Okay, as long as you're happy."
When Mr. Liu saw this, he was so angry that his face turned red. He snorted heavily, then turned around in a huff and slunk away.
Gu Tingyan watched President Liu's departing figure, a disdainful smirk playing on his lips.
He turned to look at Li Yan, his gentle smile returning to his face.
"Mom, don't let this kind of person affect our mood. Let's continue eating."
Li Yan smiled and nodded, but she felt a little worried.
She didn't know if Mr. Liu would take any retaliatory actions because of this.
This scene was witnessed by Duan Yujing as he walked into the restaurant.
Duan Yujing wanted to come over and say hello, but he saw Li Yan and Gu Tingyan being so intimate.
His heart felt as if it had been struck hard, and a wave of bitterness washed over him.
Duan Yujing's eyes instantly dimmed, and his previously expectant face turned gloomy.
He bit his lower lip tightly, his hands unconsciously clenched, and he turned and strode out of the restaurant.
Duan Yujing returned home, with nowhere to vent his frustration.
He found his treasured wine collection, sat on the sofa, and started chugging it down.
After a while, his eyes became somewhat glazed over, and images of Li Yan and Gu Tingyan being intimate kept flashing through his mind.
Why did he fall in love with Li Yan?
Why didn't he meet Li Yan at the right time?
Why would God play such a cruel joke on me?
Duan Yujing kept asking himself this question, and with each sip of wine, the pain in his heart increased.
Meanwhile, Li Yan was in a great mood after seeing that President Liu had left in anger.
She was so happy that she ate an extra bowl of rice.
Li Yan's eyes sparkled, and a smug smile played on her lips, as if she had just won a battle.
After dinner, Gu Tingyu took Li Yan shopping at the mall.
The mall is bustling with people coming and going.
The store plays upbeat music, creating a pleasant shopping atmosphere.
Gu Tingyan was originally with them, but suddenly had to go aside to answer a phone call.
Li Yan wandered around the mall looking at clothes when her eyes were suddenly drawn to a red dress.
She immediately pictured Gu Suiwan wearing it; she must look absolutely stunning.
Slightly excited, Li Yan stepped forward, wanting to take it down and examine it closely.
Just as her hand was about to touch the clothes, another hand suddenly reached out and snatched them away first.
Li Yan was startled, looked up, and saw a young woman who had snatched her clothes.
