He Sirui kept glancing at President Gu, noticing he constantly checked the time. It made her somewhat uncomfortable. Was being with her that unbearable?
Once the people offering toasts dispersed, He Sirui asked in a low voice, "President Gu, you're not in a hurry, are you? After the reception, we still have to do a media interview. Please bear with it a little longer."
Gu Yikun swirled the wine in his glass a couple of times. "Do as you please. You don't need to concern yourself with me."
He Sirui bluntly stated, "I don't have a date tonight, and you also didn't bring a female companion. Can't we make do just for tonight? Considering we've known each other for years, don't make things difficult for me. I just returned to the country and don't want the media writing nonsense."
The He family heiress standing alone at a reception would surely draw fake sympathy from many.
Gu Yikun took a sip of his wine and handed the glass to a waiter. "Alright, count it as me helping you."
