Chapter Seven: I'm a Rich Heiress, and I'm Coming Clean!
Chengde dressed himself up very presentably, and even took advantage of his lunch break to go to the hair salon to get a decent haircut.
When he returned to the company, the head of the head office had already arrived at the branch office.
Chengde felt somewhat ashamed.
How could they have arrived so quickly?
He was about to step forward when his colleague pulled him back.
Cheng De frowned, looking somewhat embarrassed.
But I endured it.
Chengde lowered his voice and asked, "Why are you pulling me?"
My colleague said, "Didn't you see Chairman Bai talking to Manager Liu? Why did you go up there without any sense of propriety?"
Chengde naturally wouldn't tell his colleagues that he wanted to make his presence known. He ignored them and just patted the spot where his colleagues had grabbed him, feeling annoyed.
Just as Chengde was pondering how to make his presence known to Bai Qizhang, he suddenly heard someone call his name.
"Chengde, come here."
Chengde immediately perked up his ears!
Upon seeing that it was Liu Wen, his face immediately lit up with a smile, and he quickly walked over.
Bai Qizhang looked at Cheng De, who was walking quickly towards him.
His eyes, which had been smiling, instantly lost some of their smile, but no one noticed.
Liu Wen introduced Bai Qizhang: "Chairman Bai, this is Cheng De. The success of this project is also inseparable from his meticulousness and hard work."
Cheng De quickly greeted Bai Qizhang and respectfully extended his hand, "It is an honor to meet Chairman Bai. Please give me your guidance!"
Bai Qizhang narrowed his eyes, and the smile on his lips faded slightly, but only for a moment.
Bai Qizhang: "It's not a matter of giving guidance; you are all pillars of the company."
After a pause, Bai Qizhang jokingly added, "Chengde is truly a handsome man. I wonder if he has a partner?"
Chengde was taken aback.
He hadn't expected Bai Qizhang to ask him such a question.
Chengde laughed and said, "I've had some conflicts with my girlfriend recently. She got upset and told me she wanted to break up. I'm trying to win her back... I don't know if I'm considered single now."
Bai Qizhang nodded knowingly.
Immediately, he stared at Chengde, and the deep meaning in his eyes made Chengde feel a sudden pressure.
Bai Qizhang: "It's not a big deal if there are conflicts, as long as they are cleared up. The problem is that people don't communicate sincerely. Once a person is not sincere, he will not achieve anything great. His love life and work will inevitably suffer, and his life will fall into darkness."
Chengde sensed that Bai Qizhang's words had a hidden meaning.
But he couldn't understand what Bai Qizhang meant by saying that, so he could only agree.
The meeting with Bai Qizhang was short, but Cheng De felt like he had thorns in his side.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that Bai Qizhang looked at him differently than he looked at anyone else...
Bai You was watching a variety show with the original owner's mother and laughing heartily when a voice suddenly rang out.
"My little girl has gained some weight."
Upon hearing this, Bai You turned her head to look in the direction from which the sound came.
She saw that Bai Qizhang's eyes were red.
Bai You put down the snacks in her hand, got up and walked over, giving Bai Qizhang the same hug as she would her host mother.
The wording of the apologies varied.
The original owner's parents were truly kind and benevolent.
They didn't question them, nor did they make the family reunion awkward.
They believed that their "daughter" truly understood their good intentions.
Bai Qizhang patted Bai You's head and got straight to the point, "Daughter, Dad met your boyfriend today."
Bai You smiled, looking charming and coquettish, "Dad, I've already broken up with him."
This was exactly what Bai Qizhang had expected.
He believed that since his "daughter" was willing to return to this home, it proved that his "daughter" had seen through their true colors.
Bai Qizhang looked surprised. "My dear, aren't you angry that Dad knows you're dating?"
