She had especially gotten this man to come with her just to show Gu Jingze that without him, there were still many men courting her. Among those men, the man before her was a pretty good specimen.
With the man on her arm, she smiled while walking a little closer to them. Gu Jingze frowned and instinctively walked a few steps forward as well.
Mo Huiling smiled at him. "Hey, Jingze. You came to attend the banquet too. Why didn't I see you earlier?"
Gu Jingze's eyes were fixed on the man beside her. He recognized this man.
They previously had an opportunity to work together as business partners. However, the partnership dissolved later on. The relationship between the two of them was not good.
It was likely that Mo Huiling was aware of this as well. At the time, they had gone to X Nation together and only gotten to know that man, Li Mingyu, then.
However, she was now unexpectedly standing together with him.
How could Gu Jingze feel comfortable with this?
Then, Li Mingyu even took the initiative to come over and greet Gu Jingze. "President Gu, long time no see. Oh, when did you meet this beautiful woman? Anyway, I totally understand. I have a beautiful woman by my side as well. Oh, I forgot. You two know each other too."
Mo Huiling stared at Gu Jingze. Suddenly, she saw a chill flash in Gu Jingze's deep eyes. She knew then that he was angry.
He could still get angry! A wave of hope rose in her heart all of a sudden. A surge of pleasure accompanied it; she was very glad that she was able to make Gu Jingze angry by being together with another man.
His anger proved that he still cared about her in the end.
Mo Huiling said, "Alright. Li Mingyu, don't joke around anymore. Right now, I'm just friends with Jingze."
She emphasized the word friends and stared unwaveringly at Gu Jingze.
Naturally, Gu Jingze was angry. He looked at Li Mingyu and did not speak a word.
Li Mingyu cast his gaze upon Lin Che. He was stunned when he looked at her.
He wondered when Gu Jingze had his mind straightened out to have actually found such a beautiful woman.
Lin Che merely watched from the side. Before she could even speak, Gu Jingze had already grabbed her and walked out.
"Hey, Gu Jingze..." Lin Che could only leave as he pulled her along with him.
Gu Jingze brought Lin Che to the eating area at the venue. He then said, "Don't bother about them. We'll just eat our food."
Lin Che turned her head and took a look before saying, "That's probably Miss Mo's new boyfriend, right?"
"Yeah," Gu Jingze said.
Lin Che said, "Aren't you going to go over and ask Miss Mo about it? It might not be too late to ask her now."
"There's nothing to ask. In any case, she should have her own future too."
"But..."
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze's dark expression. She had hardly finished speaking when she heard Mo Huiling's voice from behind them. "Jingze."
Mo Huiling walked towards them. Lin Che paused before looking at Gu Jingze's furrowed brow. He was still angry.
However, this anger probably stemmed from his jealousy and envy.
