Song Yi’s original intention was to prevent Gu Chen and Song Fan from being alone together. Although he had heard about Gu Chen clearly stating that Song Fan was his fiancée, these kinds of family alliances were not something he, a junior member, could dictate. Song Yi still felt that Gu Chen was just casually saying it.

Now, it was evident that Charlie was also interested in Song Fan. Song Yi wouldn’t miss out on such good backing, at least he needed to establish the jewelry brand first. He would rather let Song Fan spend more time alone with Charlie, especially since there was also Meng Xia as a backup.

However, Gu Chen shows him no respect at all. “Didn’t Song Fan tell you?” He deliberately raised his voice, giving Song Yi a bad premonition.

Gu Chen announced loudly, “The initial stage of a brand’s jewelry requires a considerable amount of money. The Gu Group will fully support this brand, becoming the major investor.”

He raised his eyebrow and looked at Charlie and Song Yi. “She is willing to establish the jewelry brand, and I will support her wholeheartedly. The Gu

Group will not interfere in other matters, only providing financial and

logistical support.”

As soon as Gu Chen spoke, almost everyone gasped. Since they were all from the marketing department, they naturally understood the significant financial support needed to drive the marketing of this brand. They hadn’t expected the young master of the Gu family to throw money around just to win a smile from a beautiful woman. The female colleagues were almost envious to the point of going mad!

Seeing Song Yi’s stunned expression, Gu Chen explained further, “Perhaps she hasn’t told you because the contract hasn’t been signed yet. However, it won’t affect the collaboration between our two companies. She always waits for the dust to settle before revealing things. But telling you in advance shouldn’t have any impact, right?”

Glancing at the somewhat stiff Song Fan beside him, Gu Chen smiled indulgently.

Song Fan was completely fed up with the situation. She couldn’t understand what he was doing. He suddenly came to the company and caused such a scene in front of her colleagues.

Seeing that their colleagues’ enthusiasm for watching the show was increasing, she quickly said, “Dad, I’ve already booked a table. I’ll take them to dinner. You don’t need to worry about this; after all, there are many matters in the company awaiting your confirmation.”

Then she hurriedly pressed the elevator button, standing in the middle, pulling the two men to enter.

Watching the closing elevator doors, Song Yi could only force a smile. “Young people nowadays, sigh, I’m getting old. Let them stir things up.”

He gave a signal to his secretary, who immediately exclaimed, “Get back to work quickly. We are about to cooperate with two major corporations. Everyone, get energized!”

In the elevator, Song Fan quickly retracted her hands, adopting a crossed-arm stance. “What do you feel like eating later? Don’t be polite; today, I’m treating.”

She kept her gaze straight ahead, but in the elevator mirror, she could still see the two men glaring at each other. She didn’t want to get involved, but no one answered her, so she chose to remain silent.

It wasn’t until they reached the restaurant that Charlie broke the awkward atmosphere. “Mr. Gu, you don’t need to have such strong hostility towards me; we’re in a business partnership.”

Charlie politely placed the menu in front of Gu Chen. “I’m not very familiar with Chinese cuisine; you two can order. I’ll pay for the bill.”

“How can that be?” Gu Chen took the menu but still said coldly, “Since she said she’s treating, then naturally, I’ll foot the bill. It’s only appropriate for us to show hospitality as the hosts.”

At this point, Song Fan had completely given up. She didn’t want to be involved in the war between the two men, silently lowering her head to look at the menu. She hadn’t eaten anything since the morning, and she was genuinely hungry.

However, the meal left her feeling bloated, as if the two men weren’t very hungry. They ate with an occasional glance towards her.

She couldn’t take it anymore, wiping her mouth with a napkin, she said, “Since you’re not hungry, why bother coming for a meal? Waiter, pack the food. I’ll feed the stray dogs later!”

Seeing her childish demeanor, Charlie couldn’t help but chuckle. He quickly took a few bites of the dishes. “It’s okay. We can have afternoon tea in your office later. After all, we still need to discuss business.

Gu Chen also put down his chopsticks and said coldly, “I’ll go too.”

Scratching her head, Song Fan said dejectedly, “Gentlemen, since you plan to collaborate, there’s no need for such a tense atmosphere. We’ll have many opportunities to meet in the future.”

She looked around and then whispered, “But going back to the office is more appropriate; there are too many prying eyes here.”

Charlie shrugged, indicating that he had already noticed people tailing them from various corners. Gu Chen didn’t say anything either, years of being pursued had made him more sensitive to such things.

Song Fan stood up first. “Rest assured, it’s probably some nosy ones coveting this collaboration. Let’s go..”
