Chapter 419 There is a Traitor
Wang Yuanling studied his expression and urged, "Hurry up and answer it."
It was as if her words were some kind of instruction.
He then moved and took out his cell phone from his pocket.
The screen displays: [Qin Special Assistant]
See this display.
This call is absolutely urgent.
Wang Yuanling glanced at her phone, which was now lying on his lap.
She glanced at Gu Zhou who was swiping to answer the call and his eyes naturally looked out the window.
Hold your breath and reach out your hand quietly.
The fingertips are getting closer and closer to the target...
However, just before it touched!
My wrist was suddenly grabbed by a big hand!
He had turned his head back without knowing when, with the phone still pressed to his ear and the call not hung up.
The pair of deep eyes that were looking out the window just now were now fixed on her face, full of amusement.
Wang Yuanling's heart was pounding.
Trying to pull your hand back.
But failed.
Gu Zhou stared at her with interest, and his slightly rough fingertips rubbed her wrist intentionally or unintentionally, causing a tingling sensation.
Wang Yuanling's hair tingled and he glared at him.
Gu Zhou ignored him and curled the corners of his lips slightly.
[Got it. Just watch and I'll be there.]
Wait for him to close his eyes and hang up the phone.
Wang Yuanling suddenly exerted force and pulled his hand back.
Gu Zhou's eyes moved from the screen to her face, and he pursed his lips: "What bad things are you doing secretly?"
She pursed her lips and refused to admit it: "I didn't, but Mr. Gu, can you return my phone to me?"
Gu Zhou snorted softly and finally returned the phone to her.
Wang Yuanling hurriedly took the phone.
The screen showed: a missed call.
There was also a message from Tan Wenzhou: [Yuan Ling, are you still busy? ]
She just placed her fingertips on the screen and was about to lock it.
"Please, Mr. Ling, take me somewhere." Gu Zhou suddenly said from the side.
Her finger paused in the center of the screen, and she raised her eyes in confusion, meeting his distracted gaze.
"Where are you going?"
"Gu family."
Wang Yuanling glanced at the time on the screen. It was already past 10 o'clock.
Go back to work overtime?
Wang Yuanling rubbed the screen with his fingertips and replied, "Okay."
When the car drove to the door of Gu's house.
It's already past 11 o'clock.
Late at night, the city center lost the hustle and bustle of the day, and most of the surrounding high-rise buildings fell into darkness. Only a few windows were still lit, like the eyes of a sleeping giant that occasionally opened.
The dim light from the street lamps cast long, lonely shadows on the ground. The whole street seemed particularly quiet and empty, with only the faint sound of wheels rolling over the road.
Wang Yuanling glanced sideways and saw that Gu Zhou was no longer acting like a rogue and refusing to get out of the car. He had returned to his usual coldness and decisiveness.
He was leaning slightly forward, his long arm reaching for the handle on the inside of the car door.
With a light "click", the car door lock was unlocked and he pushed it open a gap.
Suddenly, the chilly wind of late autumn's midnight seemed to have found an outlet, rushing in, bringing with it the dust and chill peculiar to a city night.
The wind suddenly blew on Wang Yuanling's exposed neck, causing a burst of tiny goose bumps. She couldn't help but shrink her neck.
Watching his back as he was about to blend into the deep night outside.
Wang Yuanling couldn't help herself and asked softly, with a hint of concern and inquiry that she herself hadn't noticed: "You're still working overtime so late... Did you run into something difficult?"
Gu Zhou got out of the car and stopped immediately.
He turned sideways, with half of his facial features clearly outlined by the ceiling light inside the car, while the other half was hidden in the thick darkness outside the door. The interweaving of light and shadow added a bit of elusive mystery.
The thin lips exposed in the light slowly curled up into a meaningful arc: "Why? Worried about me?"
Wang Yuanling: "..." She curled her eyes perfunctorily, "I'm sorry for being abrupt. Mr. Gu, please get back to your work."
However, just when she thought Gu Zhou would leave, he did not get out of the car immediately.
His deep gaze penetrated the dim light in the car and locked onto her tightly. His eyes were so sharp that they seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
He opened his thin lips and uttered a few words. His voice was not loud, but it exploded like thunder in the small space:
"There's a mole in the R&D department."
Gu Group's leading position in the medical industry is largely based on its vast and unparalleled patent library.
The R&D department is the real core engine of Gu Group and its lifeline. There is a traitor in such an important department.
This news is too heavy.
No wonder Special Assistant Qin was looking for him in a hurry at this time, and no wonder he had to rush back late at night.
This situation is more than just "troublesome." If core secrets are leaked, the consequences will be disastrous... losing business competition, plummeting stock prices, and even shaking the foundation of the entire group...
Wang Yuanling's brows and eyes were filled with solemnity: "Is the situation serious?"
Gu Zhou, however, continued to play it down: "We'll know after the trial."
The cold wind coming in from outside became stronger.
Gu Zhou suppressed the slight trembling of her shoulders, his eyes darkened, and he immediately closed the car door halfway.
His voice was leisurely: "I'll have someone come down and drive you back."
Wang Yuanling immediately said: "No need!"
Meet his deep eyes.
Wang Yuanling pursed her lips and said, "I can drive back by myself. You can go up and take care of things."
After all, what we encountered was serious.
Gu Zhou said nothing more, and nodded lazily: "Okay, text me when you get home."
She said gently: "Okay."
Gu Zhou closed the car door gently, and the cold wind stopped blowing in.
He turned and walked towards the gate, his tall figure casting a long shadow under the dim street lights.
The tall figure was cast a long shadow by the dim street lights, with a sense of loneliness.
Her eyes followed unconsciously.
Just as he was about to step onto the stairs.
His upright upper body suddenly leaned forward noticeably, and the movement was like a sneeze.
Her eyes froze slightly, and her heart seemed to be scratched by something.
Standing at the gate of the villa tonight, the mountain wind is very strong.
But he put his suit jacket on her.
Maybe I caught a cold at that time.
Oh, right, the coat.
She turned her head instantly.
She saw Gu Zhou borrowing her suit jacket and lying in the back seat.
She looked at the coat, her slender fingertips curled up lightly.
-
"You are illegally imprisoning me! I want to report it!" Chen Yixue from the R&D department tried to rush out of the office.
Special Assistant Qin immediately winked at the two security guards behind him.
Chen Yixue rushed to the door.
The next second, he was pushed back forcefully by two security guards at the door.
"Bang!" He fell head over heels.
“Click.”
The door opened.
What caught Chen Yixue's eye was a pair of leather shoes with thin soles and fine leather.
Next came the meticulously ironed trousers.
My gaze moved upwards cautiously...
He bumped into Gu Zhou, who was looking down at him condescendingly with a cigarette between his thin lips and a faint sneer on his face.
Just like a mouse seeing a cat.
It's almost a conditioned reflex.
He used his hands and feet to crawl up from the ground, scraping his butt against the ground as he backed away in panic.
Special Assistant Qin looked at this scene of arrogance and respect and sneered: "You only feel scared after seeing Mr. Gu? It's a little late."
Gu Zhou slowly pulled the chair over, and the chair legs made a harsh "sizzling" sound as they rubbed against the ground.
He sat down leisurely, legs crossed, elbows casually resting on the armrests. His gaze was like a cold searchlight, scanning Chen Yixue's pale face inch by inch: "Three minutes, speak for yourself."
Just six words.
Chen Yixue was already shaking like a sieve.
