"I have a question."
"What is it?"
"Why are these people looking at me strangely?"
In the hallway, Hoshino Kannon followed behind Gu Chenan, noticing that everyone around was giving her odd looks.
Gu Chenan turned his head to look around, only to see Caiying employees staring at him and Hoshino Kannon with suspicious gazes, as if they'd caught them in the act.
This made him shrug and smile, saying, "Don't worry about it. They probably think you're my mistress."
Hearing this, Hoshino Kannon pondered for a moment before suddenly saying, "Aren't I?"
She suddenly linked her arm with Gu Chenan's and said in an exaggerated coquettish voice, "If Mo-jie sees us like this, won't she be angry? She doesn't know about all the things we've done behind her back, right?"
"Does she still think I'm your sister?"
The people around were shocked upon hearing this, immediately breaking into discussions.
"Wow, that's so brazen!"
"A mistress, definitely a mistress!"
"Mr. Gu even brought his mistress to the company, what's he trying to do, show defiance to CEO Su?"
"Shameless, absolutely shameless!"
Gu Chenan was completely stunned, his face showing both confusion and bewilderment.
"What the hell are you saying?"
Seeing Gu Chenan's confused expression, Hoshino Kannon gave a mischievous smile and pushed further: "What's wrong, Chenan? Oh no, I mean big brother, did I say something wrong?"
"I'm sorry, big brother, I was distracted in class. I shouldn't have said these things here. If Mo-jie finds out about us, she'll definitely be angry, right?"
Class? What class are you talking about?
Gu Chenan: ?
"Are you having a mental breakdown?" Gu Chenan blinked, completely unable to understand the situation.
But the Caiying employees around them were filled with righteous indignation upon hearing this.
"Class? This girl is still a student? Mr. Gu is such a beast!"
"Keeping a female college student as his mistress, huh? Damn, Mr. Gu is such a scumbag!"
"Pretending to be siblings in front of CEO Su, this is too much!"
Hearing the discussions around them, Hoshino Kannon smiled smugly and continued, "Big brother, you were so amazing last night, it hurt so much... Tonight, will you... mmph."
Before she could finish, Gu Chenan covered her mouth from behind and dragged her into the stairwell like a hostage.
The employees in the hallway were left looking at each other in shock.
"Last night?"
"Damn, we heard that Mr. Gu didn't go home last night, and CEO Su questioned him about it today. Mr. Gu said he went to some manor, but turns out this is what really happened!"
"This Mr. Gu is too much, deceiving CEO Su like this!"
"Scumbag, absolute scumbag!"
"Not only keeping a college student as his mistress but also pretending they're siblings in front of CEO Su, what does he take our CEO Su for!"
While the discussions continued in the hallway, in the stairwell...
"What are you doing? Are you crazy?"
Gu Chenan pushed Hoshino Kannon against the wall, holding both her arms up with one hand.
Looking at Gu Chenan's handsome face just inches away from hers, Hoshino Kannon smiled slightly and said, "Are you angry?"
"You!"
Looking at Hoshino Kannon's perfect beautiful face, Gu Chenan's anger subsided somewhat, but he still said seriously, "Kannon, this is the real world. People here have very high moral standards when judging others. I don't want to become that spoiled young master from the novel world again, understand?"
Hoshino Kannon blinked, wanting to say something, but swallowed her words and instead said, "I... I understand."
Gu Chenan released her hands and shook his head with a sigh, "Alright, come with me to the office."
As he turned to leave, Hoshino Kannon called out from behind, "I understand, brother Chenan~"
"Good grief, you just don't give up, do you?"
Gu Chenan turned around with his eyebrows twisted, his entire face expressing 'are you kidding me?'
Hoshino Kannon laughed carefreely and said, "I really understand, I was just joking."
Gu Chenan gave her a helpless look, took her hand and said, "Let's go."
Hoshino Kannon obediently followed Gu Chenan out of the stairwell, but her mind was filled with what he had just said.
—This is the real world. People here have very high moral standards when judging others. I don't want to become that spoiled young master from the novel world again.
If that's the case, doesn't it mean Gu Chenan can only have one girlfriend?
Earlier, when Gu Chenan explained the current situation to Hoshino Kannon, he mentioned that most people in Shanghai now know him as Su Qianmo's boyfriend.
So what about her?
Should they keep it secret?
No, that won't work!
Hoshino Kannon shook her head. They definitely couldn't do that. If they did, she would really have to pretend to be Chenan's sister in front of others forever.
Soon, they arrived at the office door.
"What are you thinking about?"
Gu Chenan turned back to ask when he noticed Hoshino Kannon hadn't spoken for a while.
Hoshino Kannon shook her head: "Nothing, let's go in."
"Okay."
Gu Chenan nodded and pushed open the office door.
In the office, Su Qianmo was still reviewing documents and hadn't noticed the door opening, while Liu Mingrui, who was sitting on the sofa scrolling through her phone, noticed the movement.
She looked up and saw Gu Chenan and Hoshino Kannon.
"Kannon?"
"Miss Liu." Hoshino Kannon raised her hand in greeting.
Hearing the voice, Su Qianmo also looked up, and upon seeing Hoshino Kannon, she got up and welcomed her: "Kannon-chan~"
"Miss Su."
Hoshino Kannon behaved extremely properly in front of Su Qianmo and Liu Mingrui, completely shocking Gu Chenan.
Sis, this isn't your usual personality, how did you suddenly become a different person?
Meanwhile, outside the office.
Seeing Gu Chenan take Hoshino Kannon into Su Qianmo's office, many people became indignant.
"He really went in?"
"Mr. Gu really brought that girl who's supposedly his sister but actually his mistress in there?"
"Damn, treating our CEO Su like a fool?"
"This is too much, does Mr. Gu not consider us human beings at all? So many of us heard what that girl said, and he still brings her to see CEO Su?"
"Hmph, we must let CEO Su see Mr. Gu's true colors, we can't let CEO Su be kept in the dark!"
"Right, well said!"
Everyone discussed heatedly, each face showing anger.
They didn't know Gu Chenan's true identity. In their eyes, Gu Chenan was not only living off a woman but also deceiving Su Qianmo by having an unclear relationship with another woman while doing so.
This was simply despicable! A scumbag among scumbags, a wretch among wretches!
