Chapter 741: She Slept in My Arms (1)
Although Xu Weilai only had a glimpse of part of his face, she could still recognise him easily. The man at the primary seat of the table was the same man she saw the night before.
Her suspicion had proven to be true. The man that was having an affair with Aunt Bai was indeed Zuo An’s father.
Zuo An’s father’s facial features looked sharp, and he emitted a domineering aura of a veteran business, like a conqueror of a business world. It was definitely difficult to overlook the powerful existence of him in the room.
They looked at each other for a few seconds before Xu Weilai’s eyes twitched. She lowered her eyes.
Zuo An suddenly reached out for Xu Weilai’s hand and held it. Her fingers stiffened slightly from the sudden grab, but soon relaxed as she cooperated with him on the role playing. She let Zuo An hold her and led her towards the dining table.
They certainly need to play their parts of being a couple since they were supposed to be in an intimate relationship after all,
Zuo An stopped on his track when they were both near the dining table. Xu Weilai’s footsteps followed suit. Zuo An respectfully greeted his father, “Good morning, father. She’s my girlfriend, Xu Weilai.”
He turned his head and said to Xu Weilai, “Weilai, greet my father.”
Xu Weilai nodded and greeted him respectfully, “Hello, Uncle Zuo. Nice to meet you. I’m Xu Weilai.”
Gu Yu and Zuo Si entered the dining hall. Zuo Si raised her eyebrow at this sight and let out an enigmatic smile while Gu Yu took a quick glance at XU Weilai. A faint light flickered in his eyes.
CEO Zuo seemed to show great interest in Xu Weilai as he screened her from top to down, “Miss Xu, since you’re An’s girlfriend, I’ll call you Weilai as well if you don’t mind?”
Xu Weilai gave him a quick smile. “Of course I don’t mind, uncle. If that makes you happy.”
CEO Zuo smiled in satisfaction and continued, “Did you sleep well yesterday? I hope you have a comfortable stay.”
Xu Weilai could tell that they were more than just ordinary words of concerns. Even though he did not catch her red-handed, did he suspect her involvement in what happened previous night,
No matter what, she had to handle this matter properly and ensure that she did not expose herself.
“I slept very well last night. Thank you for your concern, Uncle.”
“Oh?” CEO Zuo still had his eyes on her. “But you don’t look lively. You don’t have to be polite with me since we might be a family in the future. You can tell me anything.”
Xu Weilai maintained her calmness and replied, “Uncle, I’m really not being polite. I really slept well. Perhaps the long flight tires me out yesterday that I slept soundly the whole night.”
Only then did CEO Zuo nod and stop asking.
Just as Xu Weilai thought this topic was over, CEO Zuo looked at Zuo An and asked, “An, is Weilai just being courteous? Did she really slept well all night? Is she comfortable here?”
Xu Weilai’s anxiety up-leveled even before she could let out a sigh of relief. She could feel her heart missed a beat.
CEO Zuo was indeed a leader in the business world. He was luring her into saying that she slept well, so that she thought he would not re-confirmed with Zuo and that she indeed slept well.
Zuo An would definitely know if she had any movement since they were sleeping together in the same room.
Xu Weilai would not have any concern if Zuo An did not wake up last night. But he did, and he knew she left the room middle of the night.
Would he expose her lie?
