Chapter 110 She Said I Was Your Little Lover
Although I am indeed somewhat curious about the answer to this question.
But firstly, Wen Ning was not the type to get to the bottom of things, and secondly, the person who did this was Gu Boyan, someone she trusted with all her heart, and she didn't think Gu Boyan would hurt her.
So, I put aside my curiosity and didn't ask any more questions.
Soon, Gu Boyan and his group set out to discuss cooperation. Wen Ning, Li Man, and a black-clad bodyguard specially arranged by Gu Boyan waited in front of the hotel.
Because the driver we arranged for hasn't arrived yet.
After waiting for about five minutes, a white business car slowly stopped in front of the hotel. A young man of medium height with a smile on his face got out of the car, gestured to Wen Ning and the others, and apologized in not very fluent Chinese.
"No... my apologies... there's a traffic jam... the car isn't moving... I'm so sorry."
Seeing the man in front of him sweating profusely, Wen Ning shook his head and was about to say it was okay.
Riemann next to him immediately responded hurriedly in a foreign language.
When the driver saw that Riemann was also speaking a foreign language, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He apologized again seriously in the foreign language, then helped open the car door and asked them to sit down.
Li Man took the lead and put his bag on the passenger seat. Then he turned around and said to Wen Ning with a hint of pride, "The driver just said there was a traffic jam. I'm very sorry."
Although he had heard this three times, Wen Ning's expression remained calm. He nodded, took his bag and camera, and got into the car.
After all three of them were seated, the driver started the car and began the first stop of their journey.
The driver was a very enthusiastic young man. As soon as he got in the car, he tried to tell them about the customs and culture of Country A in his broken Chinese, but Riemann always took over in a foreign language.
After a few interactions, the driver also began to speak Country A's language.
Wen Ning had received special foreign language training from Gu Boyan, so basic listening skills were not a problem for him.
However, the locals in Country A spoke very quickly, and Wen Ning couldn't hear them clearly at first, but after listening for a while, he could basically understand what they meant.
At first, the two were talking about the customs and culture of Country A, then they talked about their trip, and then somehow the topic turned to Wen Ning.
The driver praised Wen Ning for being beautiful.
Li Man said that Wen Ning was a mistress kept by someone else, the kind who made a living by relying on his looks.
Wen Ning looked puzzled when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at Riemann.
Li Man also felt Wen Ning's gaze, but she didn't think Wen Ning understood what they were saying at all.
After all, as everyone knows, this classmate Wen grew up in the mountains and was a country bumpkin. Later, he returned to the Zhou family, attended an aristocratic school for a year, and then went to a sanatorium.
She was also aware, of course, that Wen Ning was the top scorer in the liberal arts in this year's provincial college entrance examination, and his foreign language scores were also very high.
However, the country bumpkin who came from the mountains could only memorize things by rote and did not dare to speak at all.
It's just a dumb foreign language, she definitely won't understand it!
It was with this thought in mind that Riemann remained calm even though he had just spoken ill of Wen Ning.
She remained calm and said, "Hey, Mr. Wen, I was so happy chatting with the driver that I forgot you couldn't understand foreign languages. Let me explain it to you again."
Wen Ning shook his head and looked at her with a half-smile, "No need, I understand."
But Li Man didn't look at her at this time, nor did he notice this look. Instead, he arrogantly thought that Wen Ning was just trying to show off.
You have to understand everything that is said.
But they are all pretending.
In fact, I couldn't understand a single word.
Li Man's eyes showed a hint of disdain, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and said, "Oh, I forgot that classmate Wen was the top scorer in the liberal arts in the college entrance examination. Our Mr. Gu is also your tutor."
After hearing this, Wen Ning frowned slightly and did not continue.
Li Man blinked, as if not understanding Wen Ning's expression, and continued, "Speaking of which, our colleagues at the company were all shocked. We didn't expect our CEO Gu to go there to recuperate and become your tutor."
recuperate?
This was the first time Wen Ning heard this, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried. What disease did Gu Boyan have? Why had he never told him?
However, Wen Ning didn't want to ask Li Man's opinion. Instead, he said coldly, "Don't you go to the company to work, but to gossip about the president?"
Riemann was stunned.
The black-clad bodyguard also raised his eyes quickly, his dark gaze fixed on Riemann in front of him.
The words that were about to come out of Riemann's mouth were stuck there, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his back.
"No, no, I just said it casually. Don't mind it, Mr. Wen. Please don't complain to Mr. Gu." Li Man said this with a bit of grievance, as if he was bullied.
It was clearly Riemann who couldn't tell the difference and gossiped about the boss's private affairs everywhere, but now it seems like Wen Ning is deliberately bullying others.
Wen Ning had experienced this kind of routine too many times in the Zhou family.
Wen Ning was about to speak, but the bodyguard who had been silent beside him suddenly spoke in a cold voice with his arms folded.
"Secretary Li, you should tell me this."
"I'm Mr. Gu's bodyguard, and you're just my colleague. Miss Wen is Mr. Gu's precious friend, so I'm the one who should file a complaint."
The middle-aged man's voice was cold and deep, full of infinite oppression.
Li Man was stunned and didn't dare to speak at all. He said in a low voice, "I, I didn't mean that."
Wen Ning looked over in surprise and smiled faintly at him.
The cold and steady man frowned and nodded at Wen Ning.
Li Man really hated sitting in the passenger seat, but because he was afraid of the bodyguards, he was very honest afterwards. He didn't say anything nonsense to Wen Ning, nor did he chat with the driver.
When they arrived at the scenic spot, Wen Ning carried his backpack, took out his camera, and happily started taking various photos.
The black-clad bodyguards stayed by Wen Ning's side all the time.
When Wen Ning decided to apply for journalism, he also decided to become a blogger.
Therefore, during the summer vacation, apart from helping out at Mr. Zhao's clinic, I spent the rest of my time self-studying some news knowledge, some photography knowledge, and learning more about industry hotspots.
I want to know more about the customs and culture of each country to broaden my horizons and knowledge, and record them by taking photos, which can also be used as photo material.
Riemann watched from the side and sneered in his heart, what a country boy, he just started taking photos when he arrived at the tourist attraction, it was so embarrassing!
Moreover, looking at the camera in Wen Ning's hand, Li Man was more and more surprised. If she remembered correctly, this camera cost about 50,000 or 60,000 yuan.
Although the Zhou family is also a wealthy family, I heard that Wen Ning is just an abandoned girl. How could she have so much spare money to buy a luxury item like a camera?
Li Man gritted his teeth, smiled wryly, and asked, "Miss Wen, can you take a picture for me?"
As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you.
Although Wen Ning didn't like Li Man, he didn't refuse her kindness and took a few photos of her.
Riemann came over excitedly to take a look. The composition, light and shadow, and proportion were all very well grasped. It looked good enough without any retouching.
This made Riemann, who originally wanted to find fault, too embarrassed to say it out loud.
"Haha, classmate Wen, the photos you took are really beautiful. Your photography skills are superb. You must have been playing with cameras for a long time."
Wen Ning replied calmly, "No, I only played for a month."
"One month, how is that possible!" Riemann was surprised. Wen Ning's photos looked very professional and definitely not like those taken by someone who had only been exposed to photography for a month.
Wen Ning glanced at her, showing no desire to explain further. He simply hummed and turned away to continue filming his own filming.
Li Man was unwilling to accept this. Could it be that her investigation was wrong? Could it be that the Zhou family had already accepted Wen Ning?
"This camera looks like it has great image quality. It must be quite expensive. Mr. Wen chose one with such good performance for his first time using a camera?" Riemann said sourly.
Wen Ning replied calmly, "A Yan recommended it to me."
Ayan.
Hearing this exclusive and intimate nickname.
Li Man froze in place, the jealousy in his eyes almost tangible as he stared at Wen Ning.
Wen Ning looked back at her calmly.
Li Man smiled stiffly and asked casually, "Is this the graduation gift from Mr. Gu?"
"No." Wen Ning simply replied with two words, not offering any further explanation. He then asked in a cold voice, "Any other questions?"
She didn't know why, but being looked at by Wen Ning's dark and calm eyes, it was as if all her dark and secret thoughts were seen through.
This made Riemann feel very uneasy.
She quickly turned her face away, not daring to meet Wen Ning's gaze, and said, "No, no, that place in front is also very beautiful. If you want to take pictures, you can go there."
Wen Ning nodded and left.
The black-clad bodyguard gave Li Man a cold look and left beside Wen Ning.
Riemann stood there and stamped his feet, extremely angry, but he didn't dare to do anything.
When Wen Ning was standing in front of the sculpture taking pictures, a tall foreign friend suddenly came over. His face was slightly red, and he invited Wen Ning to take a photo with him in a foreign language.
When Li Man walked over, he just heard Wen Ning replying to the man in a foreign language. He suddenly froze and looked at Wen Ning in horror.
But soon, the man did not take a photo, but left regretfully.
Li Man couldn't help but comfort herself again, she must have heard it wrong just now, Wen Ning only knew how to speak mute foreign languages and take exams, but he couldn't listen or speak at all!
In the evening, Gu Boyan drove over to pick up Wen Ning for dinner.
Watching the Maybach merge into the traffic and speed away.
Li Man couldn't help but ask Yang Lan, "Sister Lan, I remember there's a dinner party tonight. Does Mr. Gu plan to bring classmate Wen there?"
Yang Lan shook her head and explained, "Special Assistant Zhong went in place of Mr. Gu."
Considering Gu Boyan's status and position, he didn't have to dress up and attend any dinner invitation.
This charity dinner in Country A was just a donation dinner organized for a local natural disaster. Gu Boyan just happened to be in Country A, so it didn't matter whether he attended the dinner or not.
But Li Man felt a pang of sadness when he thought of the two of them leaving together. He couldn't help but say, "Boss Gu is so foolish. How could he even neglect his work just to be with her?"
When Yang Lan heard this, she immediately said, "Be careful with your words. It's not for you and me to judge how Mr. Gu handles things."
Riemann was still dissatisfied.
Yang Lan continued, "Li Man, you've been in the company for a year now. You should know what kind of temper Mr. Gu has. I advise you not to offend him."
Li Man quickly lowered his head, his voice filled with guilt. "Sister Lan, what are you talking about? I just came here to work and get a salary. What can I do?"
"That's the best." Yang Lan said and left.
But Li Man was very unwilling. She was the daughter of a small family in Beijing. She worked hard to get into Gu's company and became Gu Boyan's assistant, just for the position of girlfriend.
But there are many people who have the same idea as her, but no one can make it come true.
Originally, it would have been fine if nothing happened to anyone, but unexpectedly, there was a girl who received special treatment from Gu Boyan. How could she be willing to accept this!
But at this time, Gu Boyan was with Wen Ning, and no one mentioned her.
Wen Ning shared with him the photos she took today and some of her insights. Gu Boyan listened carefully and gave her feedback from time to time.
Afterwards, the two of them went to eat the special dishes of Country A and enjoyed a beautiful fireworks show by the river.
When the two returned to the hotel, they suddenly bumped into Riemann, who was standing outside the door in a bathrobe, with a rosy face and a look of helplessness.
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, I just came out of the shower and wanted to do some laundry. I forgot to bring my room card, and my roommate is not here either. I can't get into the room. Can you help me?"
As Li Man spoke, he walked towards Gu Boyan with light lotus steps.
But Gu Boyan never looked at her face from beginning to end. Instead, he said to the bodyguard beside him, "Help her contact the hotel front desk."
The bodyguard agreed, and Gu Boyan ignored her and accompanied Wen Ning to send her back to the room.
In fact, their rooms were only separated by a wall, but it was only two steps away. Gu Boyan sent her to the door, and then was pulled in by the little girl.
Then, the door opened with a click.
Gu Boyan said in surprise, "Ningning!"
Wen Ning's pretty face was filled with seriousness as she asked word by word, "Ayan, does your company prohibit office romances?"
Gu Boyan's heart rippled slightly, and then he slowly said, "It is expressly forbidden."
After hearing these five words, Wen Ning's frown remained unchanged.
Gu Boyan looked at her gently and said, his deep and magnetic voice even contained a hint of encouragement, "What's wrong?"
Wen Ning thought for a moment and said, "Your assistant, Miss Li Man, she should like you."
"Why do you think so?" Gu Boyan said this, and then he seemed to feel that his tone was too stiff, so he said, "Because she has never directly expressed her love for me."
Wen Ning bit his lip unconsciously, and then slowly said,
"Because she seemed to think I was your mistress, so her words were very hostile to me."
