Chapter 25: How Do You Want Me to Help You?
A trace of disappointment flashed across Meng Haotian's face, but it quickly disappeared. He smiled perfunctorily. "It's okay. As long as you work by his side, everything else can be done slowly."
Slowly… Meng Nianyao mulled over Meng Haotian's words and sneered in her heart. "Then how do you want me to help you?"
"When you're with Gu Wencheng, do you often socialize with him?"
Meng Nianyao nodded.
"I know that Gu Corporation is talking about an entertainment city project," Meng Haotian said. "It's a big project, and many people want a piece of it. I need you to remember who Gu Wencheng talked to, what he talked about, and some specific project documents. Give them to me so that our company can try it out."
Meng Nianyao suppressed the disdain in her heart and said, "Didn't you say that the company was going bankrupt? If you go to talk about new projects, do you still have funds to run?"
Meng Haotian was stunned for a moment, then he answered, "Nianyao, I have to give it my all. This is our last chance. Although the company is out of money, as long as you can help me get this project, the company will be able to come back to life. At that time, we can get married again, okay? I want to give you the best in the world." He looked at Meng Nianyao affectionately.
Meng Nianyao felt disgusted, but she had to restrain herself and continue to play along with him. "Meng Haotian, although I haven't officially worked in any other companies, I know that what you asked me to do is illegal. You want me to give you the information about Gu Wencheng's project? Isn't this leaking trade secrets?"
"No…" Meng Haotian was surprised that Meng Nianyao would say such words. He thought that Meng Nianyao had been out of touch with society for years, so he explained, "Nianyao, we're not snatching the project from Gu Corporation. We can't snatch it away, and we won't cause any losses to Gu Corporation, so you didn't commit a crime." He tried his best to brainwash Meng Nianyao, but she didn't say anything.
In the end, Meng Haotian sighed and smiled bitterly. "It's fine, Nianyao. If you're unwilling, then forget it. I won't force you to do something you don't like." After saying that, he picked up the bottle and poured himself a drink.
Meng Nianyao's expression instantly turned cold. Meng Nianyao watched Meng Haotian gulp down three glasses of wine before saying awkwardly, "Give me some time to think. Meng Haotian, you've hurt me too much. Even though I still love you, those wounds can't be healed easily."
"Thank you, Nianyao, thank you!" Meng Haotian put down his glass and hugged Meng Nianyao excitedly. Meng Nianyao resisted the urge to push him away, but a second later, she still pushed him away. "I still have something to do. I'll leave first. I'll call you again when I've thought it through." After saying that, she turned and left.
Meng Nianyao took a taxi back to the hotel. She could still smell the disgusting smell of Meng Haotian. She just wanted to go back and take a shower.
In the hotel, Gu Wencheng had already returned. Meng Nianyao had just entered the living room when she heard Gu Wencheng shout, "Mrs. Gu? Get me a glass of water."
The moment Meng Nianyao saw Gu Wencheng, her anxiety seemed to lessen a lot. She went to the kitchen and poured a glass of cold water for Gu Wencheng. When she handed it to him, he suddenly asked in a cold tone, "Where did you go? Why do I smell like alcohol?"
Meng Nianyao felt guilty, but she still answered honestly. "I went to see Meng Haotian." She was still in the position of handing water to Gu Wencheng, but Gu Wencheng didn't take the cup. Instead, he grabbed Meng Nianyao's wrist and pulled her in front of him.
Gu Wencheng's action was so sudden that Meng Nianyao was caught off guard. She staggered, and the water in the cup spilled all over them. Then Gu Wencheng's kiss landed on her lips.
Meng Nianyao frowned and wanted to refuse, but Gu Wencheng held her back. This was their second kiss, and it was also the most difficult for her to accept. The back of her head was pinned down, and her waist was pressed down. She fell on Gu Wencheng in a very awkward position, her entire mouth occupied by him. After a long time, her tongue hurt, and her mouth also hurt. It was as if she had eaten a big mouthful of chili, burning hot.
Gu Wencheng finally let go of her. He looked down at Meng Nianyao and raised his hand to touch the corner of her eye. "Crying?"
Meng Nianyao turned her head away and ignored him. "Let go of me!"
"Crying?"
