Chapter 1230: Awakened with a Start 10
After Jiang Meili left, Gu Yunyun went to the lounge area and sat down.
Seeing that there were only three minutes left before the end of the workday and noticing that Cheng Junnan had already lowered his head to continue reading documents, completely ignoring her presence, Gu Yunyun took a deep breath.
She tightened her grip on her bag, her eyes flickering. Upon noticing the water dispenser, her eyes lit up with an idea.
Seeing Cheng Junnan focused on work, and with Jiang Meili out of the office, Gu Yunyun slightly turned around, pretending to admire the office’s decor, she took out a small packet from her bag, clutching it in her hand.
Then she stood up, walked to the water dispenser, found the coffee beans, and started making coffee for him.
Once the coffee was brewed, while Cheng Junnan hadn’t noticed her, Gu Yunyun slowly sprinkled the small packet of powder into the coffee.
After gently stirring it with a spoon, she carried the coffee to Cheng Junnan’s desk.
"President Cheng, have a cup of coffee!"
Cheng Junnan glanced at Gu Yunyun, then instinctively checked the time and noticed that Jiang Meili’s ordered takeout hadn’t arrived yet, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.
With a light hum, Cheng Junnan continued to bury himself in work, deciding to ignore Gu Yunyun.
Seeing that Cheng Junnan didn’t refuse the coffee she made, Gu Yunyun was secretly delighted. But noticing that he didn’t drink and remained focused on work, she grew anxious.
It would be best if he drank it before Jiang Meili brought in the takeout. The effects of the powder needed time to kick in, and by the time it did, it would be well after lunch, so she could easily blame the takeout for anything that happened.
"Brother Cheng, try my handiwork!"
"You should know my feelings, Brother Cheng, I like you!"
Hearing Gu Yunyun’s confession, Cheng Junnan, who pretended not to see her, frowned. Gu Yunyun’s intentions were clear—she wanted to speak to him alone and confess her feelings.
Cheng Junnan pursed his lips, thinking it was also a good opportunity to clear things up, so he decisively spoke his mind.
"Miss Gu, you should know the person I like is Tian Tian. Ever since Grandma Gu was around, from the first time you saw me, you should’ve known my feelings were for Tian Tian."
Although Gu Yunyun knew this in her heart, actually hearing Cheng Junnan say it still filled her with unspeakable anger and sadness.
The jealousy toward Mu Tiantian burned like a raging fire, blazing uncontrollably in her chest.
She lowered her gaze, hiding her emotions, and a bitter, saddened smile tugged at her lips.
"Yes, I know!"
"Precisely because I know, I’ve only dared to like you in silence all this time, not even having the courage to confess!"
"As long as Tian Tian isn’t married, you’ll keep holding on day after day, waiting, but now, Tian Tian has already registered and got a certificate with Mr. Bai, and in three days, they’ll have their wedding. She’s married, Brother Cheng!"
Cheng Junnan’s warm, affable demeanor gradually turned indifferent and distant. Looking at the slightly emotional Gu Yunyun, his lips parted.
"I appreciate Miss Gu’s feelings, but I truly have no romantic interest in Miss Gu whatsoever!"
Gu Yunyun: "..."
It was as if, just like when Cheng Junnan said he liked Mu Tiantian, Cheng Junnan’s words were a sharp knife piercing deeply into Gu Yunyun’s heart.
Trying hard to suppress the unwilling anger within, Gu Yunyun gritted her teeth, her face turning slightly pale. Both hands clenched tightly into fists, and after a while, she managed to force a smile and speak.
