Chapter 209 Mrs. Gu
"Yes, in the back seat." Jim said while driving.
Rose turned around to get some water from the back seat. When she drew the water out, a photo came out and fell on the cushion. Rose picked up the photo and it was a photo of a family of three.
The man Rose would never forget was Sun, and the young man next to him was Jim. Rose didn't know the woman next to him.
Rose put the photo back quietly.
"Thank you for your water." Rose said to Jim after swallowing two pills.
"Not a problem. Your stomach hasn't recovered yet." Jim frowned and said, "I know a doctor in a prestigious hospital at Ringle Land. Do you want to go there to take an examination?"
"No, it's a chronic disease. I've seen many doctors. It's not a big problem." Rose shook her head and refused politely.
"I was planning to take you to an authentic Szechwan restaurant which is run by Chinese people for midnight snack. Since your stomach is not in good condition, I'd better not take you there." Jim turned into another lane. "You'll feel better if you eat some light food at this time. I'll take you to a place."
"No, thanks. I'd better go back to my apartment directly."
"Rose, why do you always refuse my invitation? This will make me feel that you are trying to stay away from me. " Jim joked. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Rose smiled and pursed her lips, without saying anything more.
"Don't worry. I will send you home safely after dinner." Jim added.
Sometimes, Rose felt that Jim knew what she was thinking.
The place where Jim took Rose to was a western restaurant. There were still many guests at this time.
"This restaurant provides dining service specially to the elite white-collar workers who work overtime. Its dishes taste very good." As soon as Jim and Rose were seated, a waitress immediately responded.
Obviously, the waiter knew Jim.
"Mr. Qu, would you like to order the same as last time?" The blonde waitress winked at Jim.
Obviously, Jim was satisfied. He smiled and turned to Rose, handing her the menu. "Do you have anything you want to eat?"
Glancing at the menu, Rose shook her head and said, "you are familiar with this place. I trust your taste. I don't have anything special to eat."
Jim nodded and said to the waitress, "the same dishes as last time, adding a seafood porridge with minced pork."
"Mr. Qu, I'm sorry. This dish is not on the menu." The waitress was in a dilemma.
Jim took out his wallet, found out a bill from it, put it into the pocket of the waitress, and smiled, "just tell your Chinese chef. He knows how to make this dish. The price is calculated according to the most expensive dish here."
"Okay, please wait a moment." The waitress nodded to her with a big smile on her face.
"Your face is so attractive." Rose said with a smile, holding her hands.
The angular face of Jim was both oriental and classical.
Rose could tell that Jim's face was alike the looking of the woman in the photo.
Jim's handsome face was different from that of Burke. He was handsome with sexy swaggering, while the Burke was cold and kept strangers away from him. Even if he was extremely popular among women, few people dared to approach him.
Rose rubbed her forehead and blamed herself for thinking of him again.
In the past three years, she still couldn't forget Burke.
"There is an old Chinese saying that I only drink one scoop of the endless water in the Weak River. Rose, do you understand what I mean? " Jim glanced at Rose meaningfully.
"I didn't learn it well when I was at school," said Rose, shrugging her shoulders and trying to shift the topic.
Jim laughed and stopped talking about it.
He had always been like this. In the past three years, everyone could tell his love for Rose, but it appeared that only she didn't understand.
However, Jim didn't show it obviously. He just mentioned it occasionally and touched the nerve between the two people, waiting for Rose to fall in love with him.
He was a proud and arrogant man. He would never show his love or ask a woman to stay.
They had a nice dinner. Jim kept entertaining her with jokes.
"By the way, I'll be back to China in a few days. Do you want to go back with me?" Jim asked as if he was not intentional.
Rose stopped scooping the porridge and replied, "I won't go back. There are a lot of things to deal with in the company here. I don't have time to go back. "
"Rose, I've known you for three years. And you haven't been back for three years." Jim looked at Rose and said.
"Is it strange?" Rose asked with a smile.
"As far as I know, except for the product release event in the second half of this year, your company doesn't seem to be so busy that you, as the CEO, can't even spare one or two days." "I go back this time to visit my grandma. The scenery there is very beautiful. I hope you can come with me."
"Cloud Group has just started. I still have a lot to learn. I can't delay it for even a second. I'm sorry that I have to go with you next time. Please say hello to your grandma for me. " Rose refused politely.
Jim chuckled, shook the wine glass and suddenly asked, "is it because of Burke Gu?"
Rose stiffened and looked up at Jim. "You investigated me?"
In the past three years, she had been on good terms with Jim, but the two of them had tacitly forgotten about the past.
But they had been in a close relationship.
"Rose, we have been friends for three years. If I don't even know your past, isn't it weird to be your friend?" Jim explained, "Besides, almost everyone in the domestic business circle knows Burke. Do you think no one knows that his wife is Rose? Your grand wedding ceremony is enough to attract everyone's attention. "
Rose pursed her lips and said nothing.
"Did I offend you?" Jim was a little regretted that he said too much just now. He was trying to test her bottom line, but he didn't expect that Rose would react so strongly when mentioning Burke.
The more she reacted, the more she cared.
Zoey's heart sank.
He knew that [林若安] was the wife of the president of the Gu consortium. He knew it three years ago.
But he had no choice but to love her.
This woman had attracted him since they met for the first time.
Jim was determined to get whatever he wanted. He had met so many women, but only a few of them really attracted his attention.
Besides Rose, there was only one other woman, whose figure was almost blurry in his memory, who left an unforgettable mark in his heart.
And Rose looked exactly like that woman.
"How much do you know?" Rose took a deep look at Jim with curiosity.
