Unlike the tranquilizers that Qi Nuan was secretly fed, the drugs that Mr. Hu was given were actually addictive drugs.
He had worked in the Gu family company for so many years, and after being plotted against by Gu Hui, he was so angry that he immediately confronted him.
But Gu Hui was also cunning. He had no involvement at all and would never admit it. Even if Mr. Hu reported him to the police, they would be helpless without evidence. On the contrary, Mr. Hu had been arrogant for most of his life. If he was found to be a drug user, his reputation would be completely ruined.
Qi Nuan moved forward and grabbed Mr. Hu's hand: "Go ahead and quit smoking. Let's work together. You're such a capable person, I believe you can succeed."
He probably thought that Qi Nuan had the same drug reaction as him. Upon hearing this, he immediately made his position clear and said that he would vote for Lu Yin at the board meeting.
Qi Nuan knew that he was using this action as a bargaining chip, and asked Lu Yin to help her conceal her drug history while also helping him prevent his drug use from being exposed.
"I know you didn't do it voluntarily. It's probably like me, someone secretly tampered with your drink. Don't worry, as long as we work hard to quit, even if we are really discovered, the lawyers will be able to find a way."
Qi Nuan said all the words of affirmation, but he did not promise that Lu Yin would help him keep it secret.
Director Hu had no idea that after Qi Nuan was sent to the hospital that day, Lu Yin immediately had someone take samples for evidence preservation, confirming that the medicine Qi Nuan had accidentally ingested without knowing it was only a temporary drug reaction that made her feel uncomfortable, and she would not become addicted like those old directors.
Qi Nuan knew what he was thinking, and with her deliberate concern, Mr. Hu was naturally very touched.
Just when he was about to sit closer and get more intimate with the beautiful Director Qi, Qi Nuan suddenly stood up, saying that it was getting late and said goodbye.
"The board meeting won't be over for long. This is a sensitive time, and the Gu family will be keeping a close eye on us. Please forgive me for not being able to visit you often. I will definitely come back to see you after the meeting is over."
She took the figures and clothes given by Mr. Hu and expressed her gratitude again.
Before leaving, Qi Nuan suddenly turned around and made a fighting gesture to Mr. Hu who was seeing her off: "Come on! Let's work together, there will definitely be no problem!"
Director Hu's eyes actually had tears in them. He insisted on holding Qi Nuan's hand again, telling her not to worry, that he would definitely help and not let Gu Hui, the troublemaker, win.
Qi Nuan smiled and praised his wise attitude, and insisted that the old man stop and let the servant see him off.
"Madam, if you become an actress, your acting skills will definitely be much better than your sister's."
Zhao Yu, who had been following all the way, started the car and gave a sincere compliment to Qi Nuan who was wiping her hands with a wet wipe in the rearview mirror.
Qi Nuan snorted and asked him to drive carefully.
She glanced at the cosplay costume placed aside and was sure that she would never wear it.
She was indeed acting just now to achieve her own goals.
But Qi Nuan felt that she had not lied to him, because as long as this man successfully quit drugs before the drug scandal was exposed, there would always be a chance for him to get away with it.
If he succumbs to the control of the drugs and can't control himself, then he can't blame her for not speaking the truth in advance.
After all, Qi Nuan remembered clearly that at the follow-up party after the welcome party that day, the elderly Mr. Hu, who was married, was surrounded by women, drinking and having fun, and seemed to be having a great time.
Although the three people who surrendered can only be truly trusted after the cooperation agreement is finally signed and the actual interests are clearly stated, that is all Lu Yin's work.
Qi Nuan, who had completed the task, relaxed at this moment. Seeing that it was still early and there was still some time before Lu Yin returned home, she asked Zhao Yu to drive the car to the shopping mall owned by Lu Yin to buy some clothes and daily necessities.
Qi Nuan used the black card that Lu Yin's husband had given her a few days ago. She had no worries about the prices of the goods at all. After shopping all the way, the trunk was filled with the brand-name daily necessities that Lu Yin had mentioned.
She got back into the car and was about to ask Zhao Yu to drive her home when her cell phone rang again.
An unknown contact without a name or number flashed on the phone screen.
Qi Nuan answered the phone, put it to her ear, and just as she said "Hello," the insults from the other end came pouring in: "You're seducing people everywhere, and this time you even got the director's seat? You really can't change your nature, you're still as shameless as ever!"
The voice in my ear had obviously been technically processed. The person who called couldn't stand her success, but didn't dare to curse her openly.
Since he knew about the past, Qi Nuan guessed that he was most likely an acquaintance or a colleague from the previous company.
"Heh." She sneered. "Even though you've blocked out your true voice, I already know who you are. Let's confront you. You are..."
Qi Nuan held the receiver and paused deliberately, trying to trick the person on the other end and find a loophole.
Unexpectedly, the person on the other end heard her and quickly hung up the call.
Qi Nuan stared at the screen showing the end of the call and came up with an idea.
"Assistant Zhao, I'm not going home yet. Please take me somewhere else."
