Sincerity?
Qiao Yang smiled awkwardly, feeling slightly embarrassed. He gave Gu Ye so much trouble, so just a verbal apology was really not enough. He looked at Gu Ye and hesitatingly suggested, “How about…. I treat President Gu to a meal?”
“A meal?” Gu Ye glanced at the take-out bag in the other person’s hand, gave it a quick poke and asked, “This is it?”
“Of course not.” Qiao Yang laughed. The mouth said so, but the heart was aching.
This was a fine dining, the eight treasure duck that he had specially drove his car to the food street to buy. The fragrance was flowing through the whole place, and he was even thinking of going home for a big meal.
Sigh. Let’s just put it in the fridge then eat tonight after he comes back.
He smiled, “Anyway, it’s still early right now. We can go to a place that is a bit farther. What does President Gu want to eat?”
The moment Qiao Yang walked out of the elevator and saw him, his face showed a trace of panic, and the urge to escape.
Furthermore, there was even an unconcealed embarrassment and helplessness.
This made Gu Ye, who had always been indifferent to social relationships, to feel a certain kind of evil intention to have control over the other person.
He admired the handsome and elegant man in front of him. He (QY) provoked the evil intentions deep inside his heart. This was the reason why he deliberately said those words to make things difficult for Qiao Yang, to test his reaction.
However, the man did not have the slightest intention to resist him, but he even put on a fawning smile as if he had done something wrong and wanted to be forgiven.
The fine curved phoenix eyes were bright and pure.
Gu Ye swallowed his words of refusal, tilted his head and asked with a faint smile, “Then, shall we go for a drink?”
“A drink? Okay!” Qiao Yang readily agreed, “I’ll take you to a good place. Wait for me to change my clothes.”

Gu Ye was in a happy mood as he waited.
In the end, Qiao Yang took him to Night Charm.
Usually, Gu Ye would not come to these kinds of places. When he was passing by the first and second floor, he saw the men and women abandoning all their restraints on the dance floor under the deafeningly loud music. deafeningly loud music.
He frowned and asked, “Does Young Master Qiao like this kind of place?”
“No.” Qiao Yang then explained to him, “It is a bit noisy here, but the third floor can be considered quiet. I brought President Gu here because there is an out-of-production red wine collection here.”
Qiao Yang smiled mysteriously at him as he said the last sentence.
That expression was tinged with a bit of complacent, just like a boy who was proudly sharing his secret treasure of which he had kept for years with his friends at school.
Gu Ye involuntarily quirked his eyebrows, “Young Master Qiao likes red wine?”
“It’s not that bad.” Qiao Yang nodded his head and explained to him in a very serious manner, “It’s like those rare, age-old treasures that contained a long, lingering flavor when we drink it. It was as if we are traveling to a world a century away, and the aftertaste was especially evocative.”
“Is that so?” Gu Ye let out a light laugh, “Then that is really worth tasting.”
Upon entering the third floor, the noise was cut off and replaced by the sound of a piano playing.
The black bar counter, the wooden wine cabinet, and there was a good-looking and delicate boy playing the piano. The people and objects, everything was exactly the same as in the photos Geng Hui showed him yesterday.
When Mo Yu saw Qiao Yang, the notes of the he was playing instantly slowed down a few beats. His gaze would drift over at Qiao Yang from time to time with a look of mild pleasant surprise and shyness.
Qiao Yang also waved his hand at Mo Yu, then they went to sit at the bar and asked the bartender, “Xiao Hao, bring out my Latour 1961 that I ordered in advance.”
The bartender, Xiao Hao, asked him with a smile while he looked for it in the wine cabinet, “Didn’t Young Master Qiao say that you would only open it on a special day? Then why do you want to open it today?”
Qiao Yang leaned against the counter of the bar and smiled, “Actually this is to say sorry to someone today. Hence, it is also considered a special day.”
Xiao Hao, “Oh! A person who can make the third young master of the Qiao family apologize, what kind of person could it be……”
Then after Xiao Hao saw Gu Ye, he immediately became speechless. He was stunned for a few seconds before he responded, “Gu-, it’s President Gu ah! I’m sorry, I’m sorry, forgive me for being rude.” Read this novel only on Foxaholic
In S-city, Gu Ye was the youngest and prominent influential figure in the business world. He frequently appeared in every kind of TV interviews, and magazines. His existence was really something only seen in dreams and unattainable.
Xiao Hao curbed his frivolous laughing attitude, straightened his back and was respectful.
Gu Ye smiled faintly, “What making amends? I just want to have a couple of drinks with Young Master Qiao, that’s all.”
Other than the bartender Xiao Hao, the other staff members on the third floor and the guests that would occasionally come also spotted Gu Ye.
Everyone could only look in amazement from afar ‒ Gu Ye actually also comes to the nightclub? He even comes with Qiao Yang!
