He did not come to discuss business matters with the supervisor, nor did he greet Huo Chang Yuan as usual. The front desk lady naturally asked her, "Do you have an appointment?"
"None …" Lin Wan Bai was embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, but I don't have an appointment, so please make an appointment first!" "However, Hutong's schedule is very full, even if we make an appointment, we might not be able to meet her. Currently, it's already been three months."
"…" Lin Wan Bai pursed his lips.
He suddenly realized that it wasn't easy to even meet him once.
Lin Wan Bai had no choice but to turn around and leave. As she was about to pass through the revolving door, she heard someone calling him from behind, "Miss Lin!"
"Jiangshu!" She turned her head and saw Jiang Fang in a suit.
"Miss Lin, are you looking for me?" Jiang Fang asked.
"Ugh." Lin Wan Bai nodded and replied honestly, "I have something to talk to him about, but I can't seem to find an appointment if I don't have one …"
Jiang Fang's expression and voice seemed to be a little excited. "Isn't this simple?
From the elevator to the top floor, the imposing CEO's office came into view.
Jiang Fang brought her all the way to the door, raised his hand and knocked, after that he opened the door to report respectfully, "Hutong, a guest has arrived!"
In front of the huge desk, Huo Chang Yuan was lying prone on the desk. On both sides of his right and left hands were piles of documents, while on the computer beside him, he could even see the waves of the stock market.
suit jacket hung from the back of the high-backed chair, holding a pen with its shoulder slightly tilted downwards, its head lowered, like a cautious thinker.
Hearing Jiang Fang's report, the person who did not raise his head replied "En".
Jiang Fang looked at her, nodded, and respectfully opened and closed the door.
Lin Wan Bai stood in place for a while, and since he did not raise his head, he could only continue walking, until he was only a few steps away from the desk.
Only then did he realize that not only were there files from Hilltop on the desk, there was also a cup of cold coffee and a lunchbox. From the looks of it, this was the lunch that the secretary had ordered for him.
His gaze inadvertently swept past, and he slightly paused.
It wasn't some tasty meal, but a bowl of noodles. It was hard to tell if the food was tasty or not, but the chopsticks were still lying on top of the paper.
Lin Wan Bai focused and spoke, "Hutong..."
The pen in Huo Chang Yuan's hand paused for a moment, then suddenly raised his head.
"Sorry for taking up some of your personal time …" Lin Wan Bai held onto the shoulder strap of his bag.
"Speak." Huo Chang Yuan leaned back.
Lin Wan Bai took out the bank card from his bag and placed it on the desk, "I received a message yesterday, another 200,000 yuan was added in."
"Oh, this." Huo Chang Yuan closed the pen, and something unnoticeably flashed past his eyes, as he said indifferently, "Maybe Jiang Fang has forgotten."
"Since our relationship is already over, I can't take your money anymore, so … This card will always be returned to you. " Lin Wan Bai said in a single breath and then retracted his hand.
"Is that why you came?" Huo Chang Yuan gazed at her.
"And …" Lin Wan Bai swallowed his saliva.
Under his unwavering gaze, he took out two more items from his bag. "The key and this necklace …"
It didn't look like the time when he let go of the key on the card. It was actually a bit difficult.
A hint of disappointment seemed to flash across Huo Chang Yuan's face, but he did not seem to be in any mood to investigate further.
When he spoke again, his voice was clearly indifferent, "I have never taken back the things I gave you. If you don't want them, go out and turn right. There are dustbin s!"
"Then you can do whatever you want with it …" Lin Wan Bai held his hands behind his back.
Huo Chang Yuan seemed to snort coldly, and the arm that was coiled up in the sleeve of his shirt suddenly raised up, and the diamond key pendant fell right into the dustbin beside him.
Just like when he gave it to her, it made a dull sound.
Lin Wan Bai opened his eyes wide, but did not feel surprised. This was completely like how he handled things.
She only looked at that extremely expensive luxury item that he had treated like trash. Not only was she unwilling to part with the money, she was also simply unwilling to part with the necklace. She couldn't pick it up like she did then, so she clenched her fingers the entire time, "I won't disturb Hutong anymore."
After Lin Wan Bai finished speaking, he turned around to leave.
"Lin Wan Bai, are you really not going to think about it?"
Lin Wan Bai's footsteps paused, and he raised his eyes, his serene and deep gaze never leaving them.
Naturally, she knew what he meant.
Almost at the same time he opened his mouth, a sense of loss welled up in his heart. At the same time, there was also resistance and resistance.
Lin Wan Bai's back straightened a little. She did not say anything, but her silent attitude and expression told him everything.
When she was about to turn around and walk to the door, Huo Chang Yuan's calm voice once again sounded. There was a gloom that could not be hidden, "Lin Wan Bai, I can also be like back then, and use a few methods to force you to continue following me."
Lin Wan Bai had no choice but to stop in his tracks once again.
"You …" She turned her head and glared at him.
Indeed, there was not the slightest degree of falsehood in his words, and he had the ability to do so.
People did not fight with officials, and officials did not fight with business. With his status, there was nothing she could not obtain if she wanted anything. Previously, she had been forced into a corner before she took the initiative to beg him …
It was as if the feeling of despair had returned.
Lin Wan Bai was so angry that he had no place to vent it, when he suddenly heard him say faintly, "It's just that I don't want to do that anymore."
"…" She was shocked.
It was as if his heart was filled with weeds and filled with disorder.
Suddenly, two "kowtows" sounded out from outside the door, which seemed to be from his subordinates, as they said in a very respectful voice, "Hutong, the shareholders' meeting is about to begin!"
Lin Wan Bai turned around and left with broken footsteps.
As the sun rose and set, time passed steadily.
When she finished her work, Lin Wan Bai walked out of the office and was about to walk down the aisle when the jeep with the military tag stopped in front of her.
She sat inside and felt helpless, "Brother Yan Feng, you don't have to come and pick me up. I'm actually more used to taking the bus …"
"I haven't been busy these few days, and the main thing is that Zhou Zhou wants to see you!" Yan Feng smiled gently.
"Lil 'White, I've been worried ever since I last saw you!" The little guy immediately stuck his head out from behind.
"…" Lin Wan Bai was defeated.
As the car drove into the main road, she suddenly thought of something and could not help but ask, "How long has it been since I last saw Xiao Yun Zheng?"
Previously, Xiao Yun Zheng would always gather around whenever she was free.
"He has been busy with his family matters." Yan Feng explained.
After Lin Wan Bai heard this, he nodded and did not ask further.
On the other hand, Yan Feng turned his head towards her and smiled, "Xiao Wen, your birthday is coming up next Saturday, I coincidentally have nothing to do, so I'll look for a resort to relax in, okay?"
Lin Wan Bai was in a trance for a moment, she had almost forgotten it herself.
However, he did not agree. Instead, he revealed a worried expression, "I'm afraid I can't do it next week …"
