Soon, a video was shared in the group chat.
In the video, Gu Chenan and Liu Mingrui were pressed against the aquarium glass like children, watching various aquatic creatures swim back and forth.
At the end, Liu Mingrui gave Gu Chenan a gentle kiss on the lips.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the group chat became excited.
Solid proof, absolutely solid proof!
If they could have made excuses about holding hands at the aquarium, there was no way to explain away this kiss!
"Great, this is perfect! Now Ms. Su will definitely see Mr. Gu's true character!"
"Brothers, let's go together tomorrow to show this video to Ms. Su!"
"Yes, let's go together!"
...
Gu Chenan and Liu Mingrui were completely unaware of being secretly filmed, still immersed in their sweet atmosphere.
They walked along the aquarium, talking about their childhood memories.
Soon, as dusk approached, they left the aquarium.
"Are you hungry?" Gu Chenan asked.
"A little," Liu Mingrui paused before saying, "Should I cook for you at home?"
"Uh... let's eat out instead. Your cooking is delicious, but my body can't handle it," Gu Chenan said with an expression that clearly meant 'please don't.'
It wasn't that Gu Chenan was being picky, but Liu Mingrui's cooking consisted entirely of nutritional supplements.
Everything was either bull penis or sheep kidneys, making Gu Chenan constantly thirsty and overheated. If he kept eating like this, he'd eventually get a nosebleed.
"You're looking down on me!"
Liu Mingrui suddenly pouted and turned away, pretending to be angry.
"No, how could this be looking down on you?" Gu Chenan quickly moved in front of her and said, "I just don't want to trouble you."
"I don't believe you. You clearly despise my cooking," Liu Mingrui turned her head to the other side.
Gu Chenan moved to her other side and explained, "We've been walking for so long, we're tired and hungry. By the time we get home and you finish cooking, it'll be so late. Wouldn't it be better to just grab something outside?"
Hearing this, Liu Mingrui seemed to think Gu Chenan had a point, so she blinked and asked, "You really aren't looking down on me?"
"Of course not," Gu Chenan assured her, "I just don't want you to tire yourself out."
"Well... alright then, let's eat out," Liu Mingrui nodded.
"Phew~"
Good grief, Gu Chenan thought to himself. When Liu Mingrui was just his childhood friend, she wasn't this difficult to deal with. How did she become so challenging after becoming his girlfriend?
"What should we eat?" Liu Mingrui asked.
Gu Chenan looked around and spotted a restaurant in the distance, pointing at it, "That one - super spicy hotpot!"
...
Later that night, in the bathroom of Gu Family Manor.
Gu Chenan clutched his stomach, groaning in pain, "Damn it, I'm never eating that cursed super spicy hotpot again. It nearly gave me hemorrhoids!"
The next day.
At Caiying.
Su Qianmo came to work alone today, while Hoshino Kannon, Bai Yutian, and Liu Mingrui were all at the manor.
As the primary partner, Su Qianmo wasn't like the others who would get jealous or emotional over Gu Chenan's attention being divided.
She had absolute confidence in both herself and her place in Gu Chenan's heart.
This confidence didn't come from her appearance but from knowing her true worth to Gu Chenan.
"Ms. Su."
As Su Qianmo stepped out of the elevator in her high heels, she found several people standing outside her office.
Everyone nodded when they saw her.
Su Qianmo paused, frowning slightly in confusion, "Do you all have something to report?"
They exchanged glances, then nodded, "Yes, Ms. Su. Something important."
"Important?"
Su Qianmo blinked, suddenly curious.
With Caiying thriving so well, what could be so important that so many people needed to report it together?
"Come in."
Su Qianmo opened her office door and walked in, with everyone following behind.
Placing her bag on the desk, she sat down and looked at them, "One at a time, let me hear what's so important."
After exchanging looks, one person stepped forward.
"Ms. Su, we've obtained crucial evidence," they said, pulling out their phone.
"Hmm?"
These vague words left Su Qianmo completely confused.
What crucial evidence? Evidence about whom?
"What do you mean?" Su Qianmo asked, puzzled.
The person licked their lips, seeming hesitant, "Ms. Su, remember when we came to you before about the unclear relationship between Ms. Hoshino Kannon and Mr. Gu? Well, now we..."
Before they could finish, Su Qianmo's expression changed as she waved her hand angrily, "If you're here about this again, please leave right now. And from now on, anyone who brings this up will be fired!"
"Ms. Su..."
The person froze, unsure what to do, but others around them were quietly encouraging them.
"Go on, tell Ms. Su!"
"Don't be afraid, we're doing this for Ms. Su's own good!"
"That's right, Ms. Su will understand our good intentions once she sees the video."
Hearing these words, the person straightened up with a determined expression, as if ready to sacrifice themselves for a greater cause, "Ms. Su, this isn't just about that!"
They played the video on their phone and held it in front of Su Qianmo, "Ms. Su, Mr. Gu isn't just involved with Ms. Hoshino, he was also intimate with that young lady who came yesterday, and last night he took Ms. Liu to the aquarium where she even kissed him!"
Hearing this, Su Qianmo's forehead was covered in black lines as she was rendered speechless.
Good grief, she thought, I pay you to work, not to spy on my relationship!
Besides, did they really think she didn't know about all this?
Unbelievable.
Although Su Qianmo knew about everything, she couldn't just say it outright.
After all, if these people knew that Gu Chenan was involved with so many women, wouldn't they be shocked enough to jump out of their skin?
"Ahem."
Finally, Su Qianmo cleared her throat and said, "I'm aware of everything you're talking about. Now, please get back to work."
Then, her expression turned cold as she added, "And please focus your attention on your work, not on Mr. Gu's private life!"
Everyone was stunned by her words.
She knew everything?
Ms. Su knew about all of this?
But wait, Mr. Gu was essentially juggling multiple relationships at once?
How could Ms. Su show no surprise or anger?
Shouldn't the reasonable reaction be that even if she maintained her composure, there would at least be hints of fury, resentment, and anger in her expression?
What was with this calm demeanor?
Oh no!
Could it be... could it be that she really knew about everything all along?
