Chapter 137: Chapter 137

Cheng Junnan actually really liked this side of Gu Tiantian, so genuine, without any pretense.

Thinking back to all the previous meetings with Gu Tiantian, it seemed every time Gu Tiantian was cautious and guarded around him.

Thinking about this, Cheng Junnan chuckled softly.

"It’s okay, Tian Tian, I understand how you feel now."

Gu Tiantian was taken aback, not expecting Cheng Junnan to say that.

And today, she really had to properly thank him.

"President Cheng, thank you so very, very much for today!"

Seeing Gu Tiantian’s polite and distant demeanor, with every word being "you," Cheng Junnan felt very dissatisfied inside.

However, his face remained unaffected, watching Gu Tiantian very gently.

"Not at all, since you, Tian Tian, are an employee of Haitian Entertainment, when an employee encounters an issue, it’s only natural for the company owner to step in and help out, so you don’t have to be so polite."

When something happens at school, it’s natural for the school to step in, because the school must take responsibility.

But at the company...

Gu Tiantian knew that what Cheng Junnan was saying was just for show; she smiled and nodded in agreement, while internally pondering how to properly thank him.

She was as poor as could be, and Cheng Junnan was the company president, having everything he wanted.

Thanking him was truly difficult.

Unable to think of anything for the moment, Gu Tiantian was reluctant to dwell on it and decided to set it aside for now.

Cheng Junnan noticed all of Gu Tiantian’s expressions, smiled slightly, and spoke half-jokingly.

"If you really want to thank me, how about treating me to a meal sometime when you have the time."

Gu Tiantian was startled, her big dark eyes widening as she looked at him.

It’s not that she was overthinking it, but... how would a small employee like her properly treat a big boss from the company to a meal?

"Since you’re not saying anything, I’ll take that as a yes!"

Cheng Junnan’s mood instantly improved.

Seeing Gu Tiantian starting to fret again, he chuckled once more.

"Alright, it’s not like I’m asking you to treat me right away, why think so much about it?"

Blinking, Cheng Junnan added with a smile.

"Just a simple homemade meal will do. All those dishes I usually have to socialize over, I’m sick of them!"

Gu Tiantian rolled her eyes, feeling like she kind of understood.

The implication was... a simple homemade meal would do!

The implication was, he’s tired of all the fancy meals!

So, if she took him to a roadside stand, he wouldn’t mind?

No matter what, she must properly thank Cheng Junnan for helping her out.

A simple homemade meal!

If nothing else, she could personally cook a meal and bring it to him, or invite Cheng Junnan over to her house to eat, wouldn’t that be even better?

Cooking herself would show her sincerity!

Judging by Gu Tiantian’s expression, Cheng Junnan had already guessed how she planned to thank him.

Inside, a little anticipation grew.

Just waiting for Grandma Gu to get better, and then receiving a call from Gu Tiantian to visit.

Just then, Gu Tiantian’s phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, Gu Tiantian froze.

Only then did she belatedly remember that her aunt and Gu Liang were still at home.

After hesitating for a while, Gu Tiantian finally answered.

"Gu Tiantian, you still remember I’m your uncle!"

Although Gu Qingfeng was dull and honest, his wife and child were hospitalized, and the perpetrator was his own niece. How could he not be angry?

Moreover, when Zhang Yuexin called Gu Qingfeng, she didn’t mention that Grandma Gu had a heart attack from being upset. She only cried, saying Gu Tiantian had someone beat her and Liangliang up.
