Until Zuo Hanchengs fingertip smoke roll was extinguished, leaving only a little smoke lingering in front of his elegant face.
It was only then that Anhao realized that he might really have just come out for a smoke and coincidentally saw her, and coincidentally heard her being viciously cursed at.
There was no extra attitude on his face. When Anhao met his gaze again, she immediately smiled indifferently, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
At this moment, someone walked out of the private room. He saw that it was the governor and the secretary of the province. They seemed to have come out to look for Zuo Hancheng, as if they had something to discuss with him alone.
Zuo Hancheng looked back at the governor and the secretary and put out the cigarette in his hand. The secretary whispered something beside him. Zuo Hancheng nodded and chatted with the governor.
He didn’t look at her anymore. He was surrounded by important officials from the province, and there were so many people in the private room. From this angle, she could only see the man’s slightly raised lips and faint smile when he was talking to the two people beside him. He was so noble and elegant, and he spoke calmly.
Anhao wanted to go to the washroom, but she heard a conversation coming from outside, so it was quiet inside. Anhao turned around and walked to the other side of the washroom. It was not until Xiao Qiu and the others came out that she went into the washroom behind them and closed the door behind her. She wanted to wash her face, wake up, and stay calm. She used her hand to catch the cold water from the tap while she heard the commotion outside.
When Xiao Qiu and the others saw the governor and Zuo Hancheng, they greeted them repeatedly as they passed by. Zuo Hancheng did not say anything, and the governor only hummed politely and did not respond.
By the time Xiao Qiu and the others had returned to the private room, Anhao stood in the bathroom and looked up at herself in the mirror.
Gu Anhao, you’ve only returned to City A, and you’ve only joined the construction department of the government. You’ve only accidentally participated in the reconstruction project invested by Shengling Group. It’s inevitable that you’ll meet him at such an indispensable social gathering.
As long as they lived through today peacefully, they would not have to meet again in the future.
After washing her face, she wanted to walk out of habit. However, she considered that the private room was filled with big shots from the province, It would be rude for her to go back without makeup. She could only take out a small cosmetic bag from her handbag and put on the simplest makeup.
When she returned to the private room, the atmosphere inside was still very lively. She had planned to go straight to Zuo Hancheng to ask for his opinion on the design drafts that had been changed this time, but when she looked over, she saw that Zuo Hancheng was not there, and neither was the governor or the secretary.
He probably went to another place to talk.
Anhao lowered her eyes and sat down at the round table beside her. When she sat down, she picked up a glass and poured herself a glass of mineral water to drink.
“l didn’t expect Director Gu of our design department to pay so much attention to his image.”Xiao Qiu had already returned to her seat. Suddenly, she smiled and whispered, “‘I was wondering why you suddenly disappeared.
So you ran out to touch up your makeup?”
“Could it be that Minister Qin alone is not enough to satisfy you? You have a new goal and want to seduce a man in such an occasion? You still want to climb higher? Tell me, which one do you fancy? We can help you think of ways to help you climb into the other party’s bed.”
Anhao put down the glass of water and smiled faintly. She looked at Xiao Qiu.’!What’s wrong? Jealous?”
Xiao Qiu’s expression froze. She didn’t expect Gu Anhao to be so shameless!
However, Anhao took out a business card from her bag that Minister Qin had given her during the interview. Since she didn’t have a place to put it, she secretly stuffed it into Qiu’s hand. While Qiu was stunned, she whispered,”This is Minister Qin’s personal name card. His personal number is on it. When I find a new backer, you can take over. Remember to contact
Minister Qin as soon as possible so that other people won’t take advantage of the loophole.”
After saying that, Anhao!s eyes seemed to drift toward the two female colleagues beside Xiao Qiu, whose eyes were shining.
They were also looking curiously at Minister Qin’s name card in Qiu’s hand.
Xiao Qiu looked humiliated. She suddenly raised her eyes and glared at Gu Anhao, but her hands suddenly tightened around the business card in her hands so that no one could see it. At the same time, she glared at Gu Anhao and scolded,””Gu Anhao, do you think everyone is as indecent and dirty as you?”
“Oh? Is your private life very discreet?” Anhao snorted and looked at her.” You and Xiaohui from our design department have only known each other for less than twenty-four hours, and you’re already kissing in public in a bar. That night, you went to a hotel room. Is this how you behave in your private life?”” “I’m having a normal boyfriend! Stop slandering me!” Xiao Qiu glared at him.
Anhao raised her eyebrows.” So, we saw you and a man going to a hotel so casually, but you said that I was slandering you. You didn’t see anything at all, but you said it more truthfully than anyone else. How can that be?””
Anhao smiled calmly and said,””On the day that everyone was hired, Xiaohui stayed in Minister Qin’s office for a long time. He seemed to be highly regarded by the Human Resources Department. At first, you thought that Xiaohui would become the person-in-charge of the design department, so the first thing you did was to cling onto his thigh so that other female colleagues would not snatch it from you in the future. Unfortunately, you were wrong. In the end, Xiaohui was still a designer who was on par with you. His status in the office was not even higher than yours. You even rejected Xiaohui’s date. You know very well what you’re thinking.”
“Gu Anhao, you…”
Anhao raised her eyebrows and smiled.” Don’t be angry yet. Keep the business card well. Maybe you’ll need it someday.””
Xiao Qiu turned to look at the two female colleagues beside her. Seeing that the two of them were looking at her in a strange way, she guessed that Gu Anhao’s words had really alienated them. In order to prove her loyalty, she immediately slapped the business card on the table and pushed it to Gu Anhao.”l don’t want to snatch a man. Besides, I’m not interested in a married man like Minister Qin. It’s your business if you like to be someone else’s mistress.”
Anhao didn’t look at the business card. Instead, Xiao Qiu’s eyes fell on the string of private numbers on the card. From the look in her eyes, she must be trying hard to remember them.
Anhao ignored her and turned to the other two female colleagues.””Believe it or not, Xiao Qiu and Xiao Hui will break up in less than a week, and Xiao Hui will be the one being dumped..”
