Chapter 215: Snakey Father!!

After apologizing half-heartedly, Wang Meili didn’t go to her office as she was doing earlier, instead, she left the building, leaving everyone to stare at her back in bewilderment.

Xu Nuan looked at Song Ai and the other girls and waved her hand to not bother what just happened. The conflict is between her and Wang Meili, others have nothing to do with it. She doesn’t want them to keep thinking about it.

After Wang Meili, Xu Nuan also left the building and went to the cafe opposite the office as she was planning to do earlier. The headache due to the hangover has now become worse because of the argument with Wang Meili.

‘There is not a single day when I can relax peacefully.’ she groaned while rubbing her temples as found a seat for her in the corner, near the large glass window from where she can watch people going on and off.

The weather was beautiful and to welcome the spring, the flowers were blooming, bidding goodbye to the chilly winters. Even in this beautiful-romantic weather, here she was sitting in the corner, alone, dealing with her hangover. How romantic!

She pulled out her phone and was browsing through her emails to see if she had missed any important mail while waiting for her order. She had ordered a refreshing sweet iced latte with a piece of cheesecake. She needed a pump of sugar to get on track.

.....

” I can’t believe I went easy on Wang Meili. Seems like Xu Nuan’s nice personality is affecting me.” she shook her head disappointingly remembering how she allowed her to just apologize and let her go her way.

She used to be quite hot-headed and doesn’t really care about others’ thoughts while saying her part.

It was because of her hot-headed personality that every reality show wanted to invite her as a guest, it gave them hot gossip but trouble to the PR management department of her company.

However, seeing the way she lazily dealt with Wang Meili, she felt she was not being herself. Since she is in Xu Nuan’s body, the fiery attitude has been suppressed to some extent. Seems like she is getting too comfortable in Xu Nuan’s skin.

“Why do I feel like I am losing my character?” she sighed tiredly while feeling confused about her identity. It is mainly because of this reason that she feels hesitant to confess to Han Zihao, she is not sure who she is herself.

This identity crisis was messing with her head.

She lazily scrolled down the unread emails and was about to switch to the Weibo account when her phone started ringing, interrupting her. However, rather than the sudden phone call, she was more surprised to see the name of the person who was calling.

” Snakey Father.”

Yes. That was the name showing on the screen. It was the nickname she had given to Xu Nuan’s father, Gu Zhang. She has a habit of giving weird nicknames to people while saving their names and this one seems to be the most appropriate for his snakey personality.

There were other nicknames as well. However, she chose this to tone down her rudeness, after all, he is an elder to her. She has to give some respect to him, and choosing this nickname was the biggest respect she has shown to him.

She pursed her lips and wondered why he was calling her. Is he going to talk about the shareholder’s meeting again? She sighed exasperatedly. She was tired from all the drama already.

She didn’t pick up the call and waited for some time to let it over while enjoying the jazz music in the cafe.

After missing two of his calls, she got irritated seeing his persistence and finally picked up the call while fidgeting with the coffee that had arrived a few minutes ago with the cheesecake she had ordered.

As soon as she picked up the call, Gu Zhang’s annoyed voice could be heard from the other side, ” Why didn’t you pick up my call earlier? Do you know how many times I have called you already?” He scolded her, feeling annoyed at the fact that she ignored his calls.

He was sure that she was ignoring him on purpose because she generally picks his father’s (Grandfather Gu) call under 2-3 rings while she missed two of his calls.

It shows how much she respects him.

Xu Nuan lazily sighed before speaking, ” Two times. Now if you don’t have something important to say to me, can I hang up? I am already so tired you know.” she said nonchalantly while picking up the glass to take a sip of her coffee.

Gu Zhang, on the other hand, grew annoyed upon hearing her indifferent tone. He called her despite her rude attitude towards him yet she was acting as if they’re strangers. He is her father, how can she treat him with disrespect?

He glanced at Xingren who was sitting beside him and was looking at him curiously, listening to their conversation as the phone was on speaker.

She also wanted to talk to Xu Nuan just like him, after the result announcement, Xu Nuan didn’t even call to tell them about the news and he had to call her himself to congratulate her. How can she hide such big news from him? They’re family after all.

He cleared his throat and decided to let go of the bratty attitude of hers since she emerged first in the scholarship exam.

” Ahem, I called you...because...I wanted to congratulate you. Although you didn’t tell us anything, Mr. Wen told us that you got the full-term scholarship from Xin Liu university.” He said while the corner of his lips was curling up with proudness in his eyes. Her tone also softened, remembering the praises that Mr. Wen has said about her greatness and talent.

After all, she is his daughter.

Her success is directly connected to him, the scholarship in the end came to their family. However, Xingren who was sitting beside him, her expressions grew dark seeing his gleeful expressions. How can he be happy about it? What is the big deal about getting the scholarship?

Xu Nuan paused in her actions as she couldn’t process his words. Congratulate her? What a surprise!! Did the sunrise from the opposite direction today? Shouldn’t he be bashing her for taking his dear daughter’s spot?

” Yeah, I heard from Grandpa that you all know,” she said in a low voice, not interested to continue chatting with him. Did he think that a few happy words from him will make her happy and she will forget the times he treated her like an extra?

Even though she is not the real Xu Nuan, she could feel the frustration and emotions that the girl has faced in the past. However, due to her soft personality, she didn’t even fight with them and silently bore all the accusations Xingren threw at her while Lin Ran and Gu Zhang favored her.

Gu Zhang pursed his lips seeing the lack of enthusiasm from her side while talking to him. This brat!!

Although he was annoyed by her attitude, the thought that she got the scholarship and has proven her worth as the child of the Gu family made him relax. She can finally be introduced to others as the daughter of the Gu family. ????????????????e????????. ????????????

Grandfather Gu has also given her some shares in the company as well. If she continues her hardworking attitude and listens to his advice, she can become an elegant and lovable lady, just like Xingren.

Initially, he was worried about her when she first came to the Gu family. He was afraid to claim the child who came from the orphanage with no good education background, her manners were not up to the standards of the elite gatherings and there was no emotional attachment with her, the only connection was the blood that they shared.

That’s why he favored Xingren who has been groomed by his wife and him, she received the perfect education and etiquettes of high society and was lovable since young. How can he abandon her and announce someone who doesn’t even know about the table manners as the heiress of the Gu family?

Xingren might not be the blood of the Gu family, but she had been brought up as the successor of the Gu enterprises. Xu Nuan can never achieve that level of intelligence and smartness even if she excels in some exams. Running a business doesn’t only need experience and patience but years of business knowledge to understand how the market works. Also, communication and leadership qualities come in handy when engaging in such works.

And Xingren has been working and learning that by his side since she was in high school, as she visits his office and tries to learn about his work and office culture by mingling with other employees who were fond of her dearly as well.

She is the perfect candidate to take over the Gu enterprises after him. The true heiress indeed!
