Pei Lichuan took Gu Nanzhi into his arms, frowned and looked at Mrs. Xia.

Not to mention being in the wealthy circle, even in the ordinary industry, it is not uncommon to know someone like Pei Lichuan.

Seeing him coming, Mrs. Xia was stunned, "Boss Pei?"

"Mr. Pei, this woman is really my husband's mistress. She just now..."

Pei Lichuan interrupted her in a cold voice, "I don't want to repeat, she is not mistress, she is me..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Nanzhi took over, "Friend!"

Gu Nanzhi didn't want Pei Lichuan to reveal the relationship between the two impulsively, so she withdrew from Pei Lichuan's embrace and stood aside.

But this action made Pei Lichuan frowned slightly.

friend?

Even though she had agreed to a secret marriage at the beginning, under such circumstances, she still sensibly and quickly separated the relationship between the two. Did she care too much about the agreement, or did she feel that the title of Mrs. Pei was ashamed.

Pei Lichuan's eyes dimmed, as if something was blocked in his heart.

Gu Nanzhi didn't notice any changes in the man, so he said to himself, "Actually... it should be a partner."

After the words fell, she took off the mask and hat, revealing her true colors

Seeing this, the people around took a breath.

"It's the very popular female president of Nansheng Group! That's right, Nansheng Group has indeed cooperated with Mrs. Pei."

"It turned out to be her, so she can't be the mistress. Isn't this Mrs. Xia too shady?"

"Maybe it's really old, and my husband doesn't care about it, so everyone looks like a rival in love."

Listening to the discussions around her, Mrs. Xia's face was dull, but the person standing in front of her was Pei's business partner, so she didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Her face turned blue and red, "Yes, I'm sorry, I misunderstood just now, and I didn't expect Mr. Gu to really like this painting."

She really didn't understand how such a painting could be appreciated by people like Gu Nanzhi.

Gu Nanzhi pursed his lips and smiled, "It's okay, this painting is indeed very good, I didn't mean to mock you, even if a woman is 80 years old, she should live for herself, and even more confidently."

As she spoke, she picked up the painting on the ground. Although the outer glass cover was broken, the painting was still good.

Before she could speak, Mrs. Xia rushed to say, "It was caused by my problem. I bought this painting and gave it to you."

"No need." Pei Lichuan said, stopping her movement.

He took out the card and handed it to the staff, "Mr. Gu likes this painting, I bought it, and gave it to my... partner."

He bit the last three words very hard. Although he was talking to the staff, he kept staring at Gu Nanzhi's eyes.

Gu Nanzhi's heart tightened, and he always felt that Pei Lichuan's eyes were weird, as if... making the air cold.

"Then, thank you, Mr. Pei."

She bit the bullet and said thanks.

The delicate atmosphere between the two makes people around them confused. So, they are obviously partners, why do they seem to have so many stories?

Mrs. Xia stood between the two of them, she didn't know where to put her awkward hands.

Fortunately, the staff was fast enough to bring the painting package in a short while.

After Gu Nanzhi said goodbye to Mrs. Xia, he left the exhibition hall with Pei Lichuan.

In the car, Pei Lichuan didn't say a word, holding the steering wheel with his slender knuckles, looking ahead with eagle eyes.

For some reason, Gu Nanzhi felt restless, and the corners of her lips twitched, "Thank you just now."

"Thank you? Partner, it should be." Pei Lichuan snorted coldly.

The tone of voice makes people unable to hear joy or anger.

Gu Nanzhi didn't understand either, and he just said casually, "Next time, don't be so impulsive. If others suspect our relationship, it will be bad."

After all, their relationship has never been allowed to be made public in the past three years.

But these words made Pei Lichuan feel very uncomfortable.

He turned his head and stared at Gu Nanzhi, "Gu Nanzhi, if you can't speak, you can shut up, you don't have to talk for nothing."
