Chapter 147: Gu Chen’s Gentleness

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Gu Chen, who had just entered the room, heard her response and asked, “I really want to know why Miss Song stopped adding me as a friend after discovering it was me.”

Song Fan turned her gaze toward the door, feeling embarrassed for the first time in her life.

Gu Chen had just concluded a meeting and rushed over. He was still dressed in a suit, exuding an air of a corporate elite.

His stoic expression showed no surprise at Song Fan’s presence, which was characteristic of him.

Unbeknownst to others, Gu Chen was, in fact, quite astonished. Song Fan’s unexpected appearance meant one thing—she was the Sunflower from the game.

He had once considered recruiting this exceptional talent, but now it seemed improbable. Song Fan would likely want nothing to do with the Gu Family.

However, his curiosity about Song Fan was growing. Not only was she a skilled thief, but she also displayed impressive gaming talent. Her abilities piqued his interest.

Xu Yuan hurriedly seated Gu Chen and suggested, “Now that our entire team is here, we should toast to celebrate our victory.”

Xiao Lei chimed in, “Absolutely. Our performance in the game has made our name known far and wide.’

They attempted to lighten the atmosphere in the room, but Song Fan and Gu Chen remained reserved. Gu Chen was unsure of what to say, while Song Fan contemplated whether it was wise to leave now.

Song Fan was uncertain about how to face Gu Chen. She didn’t even know who Bluesea was in the game, which had led her to make several candid comments to him. Though she didn’t mention the name, Gu Chen undoubtedly knew who she was referring to.

Song Fan had never concerned herself with how others perceived her, and she hadn’t even realized that she treated Gu Chen differently. She simply felt embarrassed in the current situation.

Upon observing that all the dishes had been served, Qi Shuo swiftly encouraged everyone, “Don’t just sit there, start eating.”

Gu Chen sat beside Song Fan and used his chopsticks to prepare a plate of food for her. “This dish is your favorite. Give it a try.”

The comment sent shivers down Song Fan’s spine. She regarded Gu Chen warily, unsure of how he knew her culinary preferences.

Unbeknownst to her, Gu Chen had chosen a dish at random and used it to tease Song Fan. After all, the dishes at Phoenix Restaurant were all prepared by Duan Feng, and it was highly likely that she would enjoy them.

His curiosity toward Song Fan’s abilities and identities had reached a point where he couldn’t contain it any longer. He yearned to learn more about this intriguing girl’s abilities and identities.

Song Fan forced a smile onto her face and intentionally avoided that particular dish, opting to consume the other offerings. Gu Chen found her childish behavior almost amusing. He couldn’t help but think that despite Song Fan’s impressive capabilities, she possessed a somewhat childlike personality.

The others watched the pair with astonishment. They momentarily forgot about their own meals, wary of missing the actions and expressions of the two.

Unbeknownst to Gu Chen himself, his demeanor had softened considerably. While he still bore no smile on his face, the transformation in his overall disposition was evident. To those who had grown up alongside him, this newfound gentleness was palpable.

They exchanged glances, conveying their mutual surprise. If someone were to claim that Gu Chen harbored no feelings for Song Fan, they would be the first to disbelieve it.

Inside the private room, Song Fan hastily gathered her food, hoping to conclude the meal quickly.

Gu Chen diligently poured her water and handed her tissues as needed.

Throughout the entire meal, he displayed an unwavering level of tenderness and consideration. Even Xu Yuan, who was slow to catch on, recognized that Gu Chen treated Song Fan differently and decided to be more attentive to her in the future. It wasn’t every day that a brother developed a liking for a girl, so they couldn’t afford to let her slip away.

Upon realizing Song Fan’s discomfort, Xiao Lei initiated a conversation with her. Wary of making her feel self-conscious, he refrained from mentioning the recent rumors surrounding the two. Instead, he focused on discussing aspects of the game, which significantly helped Song Fan relax. She began discussing the game’s mechanics with him.

Just as the atmosphere in the room began to lighten, several identical cars slowly drove past Phoenix Restaurant.

The occupants of these vehicles stared at Gu Chen’s car as if they were attempting to engrave it into their memories.

“Don’t hesitate. Last time’s failure was a valuable lesson,” a voice, distorted by a voice changer, emanated from a phone.

The men in the cars nodded in agreement. “We won’t forget that..”
