Sode's words made Bai Lan take a deep breath.
But what she was thinking in her heart was indeed a little inclined not to tell this to Thor.
The reason why Gu Jiju gave the project to himself was because of trust.
What if she revealed the secret and Gu Jiju no longer trusted her in the future?
Bai Lan shook her head, wanting to deny it, but couldn't find a suitable excuse.
"No, I just..."
"Don't explain."
Thord sneered, a shrewd gleam in his eyes.
It was also obvious in Bai Lan's eyes.
Just as the two sides were confronting each other, Xiaotian happened to push the door open and looked down through the railing. Bai Lan and Sode were still arguing.
"Mom, what happened?"
Bai Lan waved towards Xiaotian, fearing that the child would see the two of them arguing with each other.
"It's okay, go in first, and don't come out no matter what you hear!"
After saying that, Xiaotian retracted his head and didn't come out to speak again.
Soder beside him was a little dissatisfied.
The man stared at Bai Lan coldly, his eagle eyes seemed to be able to see through Bai Lan.
It was at the moment when they looked at each other that Sode grabbed Bai Lan's wrist and dragged her into the tea room next to him without saying a word.
My back pressed against the wall, and I felt a chill instantly, then spread throughout my body.
Bai Lan subconsciously trembled all over, and even the look in his eyes when he looked at Soder changed.
"What are you doing? There are children here!"
"It's because there are children here that I have to warn you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man's big hand suddenly restrained Bai Lan's neck.
At the moment of stalemate, Bai Lan seemed to be unable to breathe.
But Thord still didn't let go, and his warning tone rang in Bai Lan's ears.
This frightened Bai Lan so much that his face turned pale and he just wanted to escape.
"I'm telling you, I'm determined to win this project. Don't challenge my bottom line. I said you have to help me, and you have no other choice!"
Bai Lan stared at the other party in disbelief. At the moment of the argument, Sode looked as if he wanted to tear Bai Lan to pieces.
Bai Lan remained silent subconsciously, but Sode's outburst became more and more intense.
"Speak up! What's the meaning of your silence now? Are you deliberately targeting me? I want to get Gu Jiju's project, and I want everything that belongs to Gu Jiju!"
"Thod, you're crazy!"
Bai Lan looked at him coldly, and every word he said sounded like a mockery.
But Sode slapped Bai Lan on the side of his face.
"I think you're crazy. If you don't help me, I'll go to Gu Jiju's company and cause trouble for him. I have the evidence in my hands, so there's nothing you can do even if you don't want to."
After he finished speaking, Thord turned and left.
Bai Lan stared at the man's back. Although she was unwilling, she had no choice.
Sode's actions even made Bai Lan unable to think of a suitable solution.
As for the East Suburbs project, Bai Lan didn't want to let Soder handle it.
Sode left the villa and contacted Bai Lan again half an hour later.
This time Thord asked, "Are you sure you don't want to help me?"
Bai Lan didn't reply, but Sode basically understood what Bai Lan meant, so he didn't continue to pester her.
The next morning.
"I don't have any scenes today. This drama will wrap up in two days. I'm pretty relaxed lately. If anything comes up, it won't be too late to talk about it in a few days."
Chen Yuan was shopping outside when she received a call from Wen Su on the way.
The other party asked her when she would come to the restaurant to take a look, but Shen Yuan directly refused.
Shen Yuan has been working all the time these days, so it's time for him to take a break.
Wen Su didn't continue to persuade her, but agreed and hung up the phone.
Unexpectedly, at the corner, Chen Yuan and Gu Jiju collided head-on.
The man's phone just fell out of his hand.
Shen Yuan exclaimed, and subconsciously said, "Sorry, I didn't see it..."
Before he finished the second half of the sentence, he looked up and saw Gu Jiju's uneasy expression.
The moment the two of them stared at each other, Chen Yuan felt embarrassed all over.
"You don't have work today?"
Gu Jiju took the initiative to find topics to talk about, but to Chen Yuan, the atmosphere seemed extremely awkward.
She nodded, forced to agree to Gu Jiju's words, and turned to leave.
But the man behind me said, "If you have time, can we have a meal?"
"No time."
The two have lost contact. If they get together again, wouldn’t it be considered Chen Yuan’s ignorance?
What's more, Bai Lan is by his side.
Chen Yuan didn't want to get into trouble again.
"I have something important to tell you."
"Forget it, if there is anything, we can contact each other online..."
"It's about Ayao."
Before Chen Yuan could finish her refusal, Gu Jiju took the initiative and prevented Chen Yuan from continuing.
About Ayao...
When she thought of A Yao, Chen Yuan didn't know how to answer Gu Jiju's words.
The two haven't seen each other for a long time.
Since A Yao didn't live in the Wen family, Chen Yuan rented a house for A Yao outside.
A few weeks ago, she had thought about going over to take a look, but when she arrived at the community and tried to go in, A Yao told her not to come in at all.
Chen Yuan also wanted to know how A Yao was doing, but unfortunately, A Yao didn't give him this opportunity.
Now that Gu Jiju said this, Chen Yuan was still a little curious.
"Are you sure... you can find out about A-Yao's situation?"
"Of course, if you have time, we can chat. If you don't have time, forget it."
Chen Yuan didn't want to have any special involvement with Gu Jiju.
However, the other party's words really made Shen Yuan curious.
There is a coffee shop next to it.
Chen Yuan hinted to the other party with his eyes, and the two finally sat down to discuss A Yao's matter in detail.
