My Evil Genius Wife

Chapter 280: What a feast!!

” Should I buy new clothes? Or a...swimsuit?”

” Or....a new set of pajamas?” Xu Nuan’s eyes lit up at the thought of preparing for the upcoming trip.

” Ah, why can’t he tell me where we are going for a trip. Why is there so much mystery in this? ” Xu Nuan whimpered as she couldn’t figure out what to pack for the trip this weekend.

Two days back he dropped the bomb on her that he is taking her on a trip but didn’t tell her where. How is she supposed to pack her clothes now?

She is not sure if they’re going to a beach, mountains, or hell? She can’t pack her whole closet, can she?

She sighed in frustration.

” Hey Xu Nuan, everyone is going to see a movie this weekend. Do you want to join us?” Her classmate who was passing by her stopped in her way to ask her.

.....

She looked at the girl and shook her head, ” No. You guys go ahead. I have something going on this weekend.”

” Why? Are you going on a date?” The girl teased her.

” Yes.” Xu Nuan replied honestly, making the girl giggle.

” Then, all the best.”

–

These days, her college life is more peaceful than ever. No one asks about Xingren anymore. After the incident at the club the other night, no one dares to say anything rude to her.

Many of the classmates who were present at that time are still scared of her ‘Goodlooking-Boyfriend’. Well, they better be scared than create trouble for her.

She just wants to complete her college as peacefully as if it doesn’t exist.

No more drama now.

–

She looked at the time and gasped to see that she was getting late for work. She hurriedly went to the parking area where her car was parked. It’s the same car that Han Zihao has given her to use for commuting to college and work.

Thanks to this, she saves a lot of time and energy. Otherwise, the subway takes all of her energy and money.

However, as soon as she entered the parking area, she was startled to see a familiar face standing in front of her car, blocking her way.

A deep frown appeared on her forehead and her steps automatically halted in action. She hugged her books tightly as she stared at the man, who raised his head to look at her in interest.

The man was dressed in a black formal suit and was wearing a white shirt underneath. The man fixed his black tie before approaching her, ” Ms. Gu, It’s nice to meet you.”

She pursed her lips and looked at the man in wary.

The man frowned as something about this woman bothered him. Why is she looking at him as if she knows him?

Ignoring her glare, he introduced himself, ” You don’t need to feel scared of me. I am not here to harm you. ”

“I was waiting for you,” he said.

He pulled out his card from his wallet and handed it to her, ” Here is my card. I am Gu De. I work as the secretary to the Chairman of Jiang Corporations.”

Xu Nuan pursed her lips and took his card without saying a word. Hah! Of course, she knows him.

This man has been working by her grandfather’s side for years. First, his father worked as her Grandfather’s secretary and after he passed away, he took his position and served her Grandfather.

He is more loyal to her Grandfather than any royal guard to the King.

But why is he here? And that too, waiting for her in front of her car? Why?

There is no reason for him to meet Xu Nuan. There is no connection between them.

She gulped in nervousness and tried to keep a straight face while facing him. She doesn’t want to show much emotion to him and increase his suspicion.

” So? What should I do? I don’t know you nor your Mr. Chairman.”

” Also, isn’t it a bit rude to stand in front of someone’s car and block their way? And how do you even know that it’s my car? Are you stalking me?” She inquired coldly.

Upon seeing him looking at her indifferently, she glared at him, ” Please clear my way. I don’t want to talk to any stranger.” She said sternly and tried to pass by him, but the man blocked her way with his hand.

The man remained indifferent and said, ” I was waiting for you because the Chairman of Jiang Corporations wants to meet you and is waiting for you at the moment.”

” You have to come with me.”

Her eyes widened upon hearing this. Want to meet her?

” Why...why does he want to meet me? I don’t even know him. ” She stuttered in nervousness.

However, the man didn’t say anything and just stared at her mysteriously, making her even more confused and nervous.

***

” Ms. Gu, we’re here.”

Xu Nuan, who was sitting in the back seat of the car frowned when the car stopped in front of the hotel.

‘What the hell am I doing here?’ she cried inwardly. Even though she tried to ignore him, he was persistent as hell and somehow managed to bring her to the hotel.

In the end, she had to leave her car at the college’s parking area and came with him to the hotel.

–

” Sir is waiting for you inside.” Xu Nuan frowned and looked at the private room in front of her. He brought her to the restaurant of the hotel which has a private room facility.

” You’re not coming in?”

He didn’t say anything and simply gestured to her to go in. ????????nr????a????. ????૦m

‘What the....so she is meeting her grandfather alone? That’s the worst.’

She took a deep breath and hesitantly entered the room. She stood at the entrance and gulped in nervousness to see the old man who was waiting for her.

The room was spacious and the walls were painted in light-toned paint. There was a large round table in the center which had various dishes on it.

The whole table was packed with food.

‘What a feast.’ she wondered.

As she was admiring the luxuriousness of the room, she was startled when the old man looked over at her.

When her eyes met with his indifferent-cold eyes, she felt something pulling on her heart.

It’s been so long since she had seen him. She hasn’t seen him in more than a year. Forget about the accident, she didn’t get to see him before that either.

She pursed her lips to see his grey hair and wrinkled face. Although he was still wearing cold and indifferent expressions like before, something had changed in him that was making him look weak and tired.

She frowned when her eyes fell on the wooden stick beside him. He didn’t use the stick for support before but seems like....he is not as strong as before anymore.

She clenched her fists and took a deep breath to control her overwhelming emotions.

‘Just...Don’t cry here. Please.’ She bit her tongue as she tried to maintain her calm.

It was her first time seeing someone from her family and this feeling was very strange. She never tried to meet them as she doesn’t want to complicate things further and was hoping to spend the rest of her life as quietly as possible.

” Don’t stand there and come in.” The man said in an indifferent, stiff tone.

” Ah, Yes.” Xu Nuan nodded and went to sit opposite him.

The atmosphere was so heavy in the room that it was hard to breathe.

–

The old man stared at Xu Nuan, who was sitting in front of him, and pursed his lips. The girl was younger than Jiang Yue and there are no similarities between them, but...

Why does she feel strangely familiar to him, despite meeting her for the first time?

Xu Nuan pursed her lips and cleared her throat before speaking, ” Mr. Jiang, I don’t understand what is the meaning of this meeting? Your secretary suddenly comes to my college and forces me to come here.”

” Will you please enlighten me why am I here?”

The old man raised brows at her for speaking courageously to him. He was surprised at how unbothered she looked. Generally, people can’t speak clearly in front of him upon knowing his position and name.

Yet she was showing a familiar kind of rebellious attitude to him.

” Ms. Gu, words can wait for a while. First, let’s eat. You must be hungry, right?”

Xu Nuan frowned at seeing him dodging her questions like this. However, eating is a better way to avoid this situation.

She didn’t say anything but silently agreed to him.

Grandfather Jiang pressed the bell under the table and in a minute, the waitress came inside. The waitress bowed to him and started removing the lids from the dishes one by one.

” Please enjoy!”

After the waitress left, the old man looked at Xu Nuan and said, ” Please help yourself. No need to hesitate.”

.....

Xu Nuan stared at him suspiciously and wondered what he was planning. There must be a reason for this generous feast.

She drank a few sips of water from her glass and as she was about to put food on her plate, her hands halted in the air.

Her expressions turned pale as she couldn’t bring herself to pick any food on her plate.
