Chapter 733: We Will Certainly Stay in the Same Room (1)
Everyone had their eyes on Zuo An as they waited for his answer.
Zuo An turned and gazed at Xu Weilai with affection and gentleness. The corners of his lips curled upwards and his hand reached for hers. “Yes, she’s my girlfriend,” he answered the butler’s question.
Zuo Si snickered but said nothing.
There seemed to be a slight change in Gu Yu’s gaze, but at the second glance, nothing seemed to have changed. However, he retracted his gaze when Zuo An ended his words.
Although Zuo An’s words caught Xu Weilai off-guard, she quickly concealed any hint of surprises she had when her eyes met his. Although she said nothing, a smile appeared on her face as acknowledgement towards Zuo An’s words.
Qiao Chu was the one that looked calmest among them as his expression did not change throughout the incident, as if Zuo An’s answer was within his expectation.
The Butler smiled and nodded. He politely greeted Xu Weilai, “Pleasure to meet you, Miss Xu..”
Xu Weilai smiled back, “Me too.”
Thee butler led them into the main hall and arranged for them to be seated on the sofa in the main hall.
Gu Yu and Zuo Si took their seat on the long sofa while Xu Weilai sat on the other side of the sofa with Zuo An. “CEO Zuo has a social engagement today. We are not sure what time he would be home. He asked me to take good care of the guests that come from afar, Mr. Gu and Miss. Xu. Feel free to let us know if there’s anything you need,” the butler said as he ordered the other helper to serve the tea.
Gu Yu nodded lightly.
Xu Weilai smiled and replied, “Okay.”.
Zuo Si had no interest to sat down on a tea session with Zuo An at all. Since her father was not around, she did not even bother to entertain him and brushed him off. “Is my room ready? I’m tired, I want to rest.” she said to the butler.
“Your room is ready. You can take your rest anytime.” he replied respectfully.
He added on after a pause, “Young Mistress, I did not have a guest room arranged for Mr. Gu. Will you be staying in the same room or should I get someone to have a guest room arranged for Mr. Gu?”
Zuo Si’s lip twitched as if he asked a ridiculous question, “Mr. Butler, we will certainly stay in the same room since we are in this relationship. Why? Are you hoping that we have a poor relationship and have to stay separately?”
The butler maintained his warm smile despite her rude reply. He even admitted to his fault readily, “My bad. Of course I wish for an affectionate relationship between you and Mr. Gu.”
Zuo Si finally let the matter drop, “You should ask Zuo An this question instead. I don’t think you’ve arranged a guest room for Miss Xu as well, right? Ask him whether he needs a guest room prepared for Miss Xu instead?”
The butler cast his look towards Zuo An and Xu Weilai at her words and asked, “Young Master An, do you need a guest room prepared for Miss Xu?”
Zuo An understood Zuo Si’s meaning from her provocative glare.
Zuo An’s relationship with Xu Weilai would have been assumed to have reached a stable and intimate stage if he could bring her home to meet his parents. It was certainly logical for them to stay in the same room.
Zuo Si’s reply earlier that she would stay in the same room with Gu Yu was actually said on purpose. She set the trap and was waiting for Zuo An to take the bait.
If they were to stay in a separate room, Zuo Si might claim that they were in a terrible relationship or they were faking the relationship they claimed to have.
Zuo An glanced at Xu Weilai. A clear melodious voice answered as he was still hesitating on the answer he should give.
