Gu Qichen fell silent for two seconds.

His facial expression didn’t change much.

Gu Qichen began to speak, “Before I answer Miss Gong’s question, could you answer one question for me.”

Gong Xue’er was taken aback, not expecting Gu Qichen to counter-question and was surprised that Gu Qichen remembered her name.

Gong Xue’er replied, “Sure.”

Gu Qichen asked calmly, “Miss Gong, are you pregnant?”

His question made everyone present feel uncomfortable. They were surprised that Gu Qichen could ask such a question to a sophomore student.

Everyone felt that Gu Qichen, as the youngest CEO, could have chosen not to answer the question, or given an evasive reply, but he chose to give tit-for-tat.

Asking such a question to a student was nothing short of humiliation.

In the eyes of the onlookers, Gu Qichen was using this method to tell Gong Xue’er that she had crossed the line. The question she asked was just as impolite and intrusive as his.

But for Gong Xue’er, this question was utterly vicious.

She had announced her pregnancy in front of Gu Qichen and Xia Yangyang last time, but no one else knew the truth.

If she admitted it, her reputation would be ruined in front of so many journalists.

If she denied it, Xia Yangyang would inevitably have some doubts.

Yet, if she chose not to answer, citing it as a private matter, then Gu Qichen was under no obligation to answer her question either.

Gu Qichen, true to his nature of craftiness, gave her no room to maneuver, and pushed her towards the edge of a cliff.

At this moment, Xu Li stepped forward to defuse the situation. “President Gu,” she started, “our deputy editor was just joking. Please forgive her for her gossipy curiosity. It’s all out of admiration for you. Please do understand.”

Xu Li’s words were generous and appropriate, and Gu Qichen responded in a gentlemanly manner, “I was only joking with the Deputy Editor, no hard feelings.”

Xu Li continued, “President Gu, you have so many responsibilities, we truly appreciate your time for this interview. We won’t take up any more of your time.”

With that, she led the group out of the President’s office.

Gong Xue’er was led out by Xu Li.

As soon as they entered the elevator, Xu Li asked, “Xue’er, what happened today? Why did you ask such a private question? Luckily President Gu did not take offense. If he did, all our efforts would have been in vain.”

Gong Xue’er hung her head low, looking quite upset. “That’s what everyone’s interested in. It’s bound to boost our website’s traffic, right? I just took a chance but it backfired. I’m sorry.”

Tears welled up in Gong Xue’er’s eyes as she spoke, “I know that I’ve let everyone down, especially Yangyang. President Gu agreed to the interview and I thought I had persuaded him. I had no idea he agreed because of Yangyang. Yangyang is beautiful indeed and has a charm,,,,, that tends to give men preferential treatment… After all, it’s my arrogance that nearly stole Yangyang’s credit. It’s all my fault.”

Gong Xue’er’s crying became more intense, her face full of regret.

Although Xu Li was initially a bit angry, she now tried to comfort Gong Xue’er, “That’s enough. I know you didn’t mean any harm. You’ve always been committed to our club. But, you should apology to Yangyang.”

Without any hesitation, Gong Xue’er approached Xia Yangyang. With tear-filled eyes and a sincere face, she said, “Yangyang, I’m sorry. Can you forgive me? I didn’t intentionally take your credit. Ask our editor-in-chief, I specifically pleaded to her that if the interview goes well, your name has to be included.”

Xu Li walked up to them and said, “It’s true. Xue’er mentioned it to me twice. She must not have done this intentionally. You two are good friends and the pillars of our news club. I don’t want this incident to make both of you uncomfortable..”
