Possessive & Addicted: The CEO Could Never Let Her Go

Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Mr. Gu Grows Suspicious

Gu Xiaozhan hadn’t looked over initially, but when he heard the rather arrogant voice of this ordinary citizen, his sharp eyes turned towards him.

What he saw was a tall, skinny, and youthful boy.

Short black hair covered his forehead, even partially hiding his eyes, while large black-framed glasses suggested a hint of dullness and erudition.

”Lift up your head!” His authoritative voice came through.

Mu Anhan definitely didn’t dare to meet his gaze; her eyes would betray her.

Although her familiarity with Gu Xiaozhan wasn’t the closest, they had shared the most intimate moments.

Moreover, with his naturally powerful aura, wherever he was, people couldn’t help but follow orders.

However, if she didn’t lift her head, wouldn’t it raise more suspicion?

Mu Anhan finally looked over, just with a touch more naïveté.

At this moment, everyone was scrutinizing her.

The others’ gazes were manageable, but Gu Xiaozhan’s was like the most intense X-ray, seemingly trying to see through her.

Thankfully, before coming, she had treated the lenses so that they were slightly blurred, making it difficult for others to see clearly the eyes behind the glasses.

”Mr. Gu, I am here to claim my reward.” She remained neither humble nor arrogant.

Gu Xiaozhan put down the pen in his hand, leaning back in a relaxed posture, yet still exuding an overwhelmingly oppressive atmosphere, enveloping her.

”Identity confirmed?” He directed this question at Mu Shaochen.

”Yes, Mr. Gu.” Mu Shaochen replied immediately.

Gu Xiaozhan didn’t ask further, ”Come over and get the check!”

Lie Huo, however, was worried, ”Mr. Gu, let’s search him first!”

What if he’s here to claim the reward but intends to assassinate?

”You go to Mr. Gu and get the check for me!” To Mu Anhan, this was the best solution.

Lie Huo turned around, went to Gu Xiaozhan’s desk, picked up the check for one billion, and handed it to Mu Anhan.

”Thank you, Mr. Gu!” Mu Anhan received it, bowed, ”Can I leave now?”

Seeing that Gu Xiaozhan had no intention of keeping her, Lie Huo nodded, ”You can go!”

Mu Anhan turned around and brought the one billion check to her lips and kissed it.

Great, today she earned a billion with her skills!

She took the elevator straight downstairs, a happy smile appearing on her lips.

”Wait—” Just as Gu Xiaozhan was about to resume the meeting, he suddenly said.

Everyone looked towards him.

”Didn’t you notice something strange?” Gu Xiaozhan looked at them with a composed expression.

Again, Lie Huo observed more keenly, ”When he kissed the check before leaving, his demeanor was entirely different. Before, it was dull and uninteresting, but in that final moment, it was vibrant and lively, indicating he had been in disguise, Mr. Gu. I’ll go chase...”

”Go!” Gu Xiaozhan nodded.

Lie Huo immediately rushed out and made a call to stop him at the security gate.

The security said he had already left, ”Brother Huo, he went to the café across the street.”

Lie Huo rushed to the café at the fastest speed, catching sight of his back.

On his table, there was a laptop, with slender and fair fingers typing on the keyboard.

Lie Huo’s large hand landed like a clamp on his shoulder, and the man operating the computer let out a cry and turned around to look, ”Who are you? Why are you hurting me?”

It wasn’t him!

Lie Huo saw that his computer was being used to play games and let go, ”Mistaken identity!”

Looking around, that sudden action had already alarmed the other café patrons, who all looked over in shock, not understanding what had happened.
