"Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Just when Bai Lan was stunned, Chen Yuan just finished taking off her makeup and walked out of the set.
The two stood at the door, the atmosphere was extremely awkward.
Bai Lan didn't want Chen Yuan to discover her vulnerability, and her voice became a little dry.
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
Chen Yuan curled her lips, looking as if she couldn't help laughing.
"I'm just concerned, that's all. It's okay if you don't want to talk about it."
Bai Lan naturally didn't want to say anything, and even less wanted to communicate with Shen Yuan.
"Stop being so hypocritical and trying to show concern for me. Are you eager to see me make a fool of myself?"
Shen Yuan chuckled and lowered his head to fiddle with his phone.
Xu Zhixu just sent a message saying that he would pick up Chen Yuan from get off work.
Chen Yuan instinctively wanted to refuse and naturally didn't want to have any contact with the other party.
Even if Xu Zhixu didn't do anything to her, Shen Yuan didn't want to meet him too many times.
"I heard... you went to the hospital today and returned to work the same day. Wouldn't that overwhelm your health? I'm concerned about your condition. You'd better rest for a few days and not come to work."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yuan reached out to stop a taxi and smiled at Bai Lan before getting in.
But the smile did not reach his eyes.
Bai Lan could also tell that Chen Yuan's expression was either teasing or mocking.
This so-called concern is just a lie made up by Chen Yuan to deceive people.
at the same time.
As soon as Gu Jiju took out his coat, Wang Shan hurried into the office.
"Mr. Gu, regarding the East Suburbs project, you may need to come to the site in person to discuss it."
After finishing today's work, Gu Jiju planned to go back and rest.
However, Wang Shan's words forced Gu Jiju to put down the coat in his hand and look at Wang Shan coldly.
"Why, did the conversation with the person who went there today not go well?"
"Not really. It's just that besides us, there's another company here planning to invest in the eastern suburbs. And they're being unpretentious. Even though they knew we were the ones vying for the project, they still insisted on attending the party..."
It is not that it is not allowed to do so, but it will damage one's own image and morals.
The rules in the circle are mostly the same.
As long as someone has their eye on the project and the negotiations are almost complete, it will basically not be intercepted by others.
Gu Jiju had not expected the farce that happened today.
After all these years, this is the first time that Gu Jiju has encountered such a situation.
The man strode out the door with a smile on his face, leaving behind a sentence before leaving, "I want to see which company is so arrogant that it wants to compete with me for the project in the eastern suburbs."
Wang Shan took a deep breath, his voice trembling slightly.
"I've already checked, but there's no result yet. I only know that they brought two assistants with them and have been discussing cooperation with us for a long time. If Mr. Gu doesn't show up, I'm afraid..."
Even if Wang Shan didn't say anything further, Gu Jiju knew what the other party meant.
The man's eyes flickered and he nodded to show that he understood.
A dim street light flickered in the pitch-black outside.
Gu Jiju got into the car without saying a word, and Wang Shan followed closely behind.
The car soon stopped in front of the restaurant. At that time, Soder and others were chatting enthusiastically with partners in the private room.
A few of them toasted each other and made the partner drunk to the point of being unconscious.
Only the secretary of the partner was still sober.
"Boss, we can't drink anymore. My boss is a little drunk! We still need to discuss cooperation later, so we can't drink too much now!"
Soder has a good alcohol tolerance and he doesn't feel drunk even after drinking a table full of beer and liquor.
At this moment, he could even hold the partner's hand and said shakily:
"What are you still thinking about? Our cooperation should be finalized, right? After all, we've been talking for so long. I don't believe I can't get this project!"
"But... you can't say that! Someone's already interested in this project and is planning to sign the contract today. Aren't you breaking the rules a bit by doing this?"
The partner also nodded drunkenly, unable to say anything at this moment.
Soder didn't mind, and even grabbed the partner's hand and forced him to sign.
Just as the two were arguing, the door of the private room was pushed open.
Gu Jiju just walked in with long legs and made eye contact with the secretary next to the partner.
"Gu, Mr. Gu..."
The secretary quickly stood up and rushed over as if he had seen a savior.
The secretary doesn’t know what the partner’s mentality is, but she knows exactly what she is thinking.
Soder is an unknown boss with unknown background and abilities.
Gu Jiju has been in the business world for a long time.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that I am lucky if I can work with Gu Jiju.
Given a choice between these two, no matter how foolish the assistant is, he would not choose Thord.
"Mr. Gu, you're finally here! This cooperation hasn't been signed yet, but my boss is a little drunk, so we can't discuss business right now. How about we make an appointment another day?"
Gu Jiju nodded and turned his gaze to the back of the man not far away.
At that time, Suode had his back to Gu Jiju, but he heard the secretary's voice and knew that the visitor had ill intentions.
Behind him, Gu Jiju slowly approached and asked tentatively:
"Which company are you from? Are you also interested in the East Suburbs project? But, sorry, this project is my favorite. If you like it too, let's compete fairly."
Sode hesitated inwardly whether he should turn around and look at Gu Jiju.
After all, in front of Gu Jiju, he was just a driver and part-time bodyguard.
At that time, he suddenly transformed himself into a boss, and no one would believe it.
