Gu Tanfeng said thoughtfully, "Continue to investigate."
Right at this moment, the sound of high-heeled shoes could be heard. Soon, a woman with a strong scent of perfume barged in.
She threw herself at Gu Tanfeng and pouted. "Why didn't you pick up my calls?"
Gu Tanfeng's face darkened when she saw the secretaries who followed her in. They all looked helpless and cautious.
He had already instructed the secretaries to report to him no matter who it was.
However, this Wan Qianqing had always turned a deaf ear to it.
He dismissed the secretaries and sat back in his chair. He picked up the documents and flipped through them, not even looking at her.
Seeing that, Gu Jiu tactfully retreated.
Wan Qianqing stomped her feet, feeling wronged. However, she knew that she had to bear with it at this time.
Because according to her experience, Tan Feng's temper wasn't that good. The more she made a fuss, the colder he would be. In the end, he would even chase her away.
She had tasted what it was like to be ignored by him. From then on, she didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of him.
Pursing her lips, she twisted her slender waist and walked over to him. She hugged his arm and said coquettishly, "I'm not angry. I'm just worried about you. Who told you to not hear from me for an entire night?"
Gu Tanfeng lightly pushed her hand away. "Really?"
Wan Qianqing stared at his handsome side profile and bit her red lips in annoyance.
For the past few years, she had tried everything to warm up his heart. However, she didn't know why, but she always felt that they were separated by layers of gauze.
She hid the disappointment in her eyes. A seductive smile bloomed on her lips as she hugged his arm again.
She even rubbed her proud breasts against his shoulder. "Of course, I was afraid that you would be taken away by a stray cat. Also, I missed you so much."
Gu Tanfeng put down the documents in his hand and looked up at her. "Stray cat? You're so capable. Didn't you drive the house cat away? "
A trace of panic flashed through Wan Qianqing's eyes. She stammered, "What … What are you talking about … I don't understand …"
Gu Tanfeng smiled coldly. "You know what you've done."
There was a hidden meaning in his words. Wan Qianqing avoided his gaze and did not dare to say anything else.
But in the end, she was not satisfied. She clenched her teeth in embarrassment and resentment, and many plans flashed through her mind.
…
After Wan Qianqian left the hotel, she hailed a cab and headed to her best friend Wen Yuen's house.
Wen Yuen had been her good friend for many years. Wen Yuen knew about what had happened in the past. This time, when she returned to S City, apart from her colleagues, she only told Wen Yuen about it.
"Qianqian, why do you look so pale?" He took the suitcase from her hand and asked worriedly.
"Yes, there is something." She sat down on the sofa, picked up the glass of water on the coffee table, and gulped down more than half of it.
Wen Yuen couldn't help laughing. "You … If everyone knows that the famous lawyer Wan has such an image, your image as a goddess will probably be destroyed."
Wan Qianqian heroically wiped the water droplets off his chin with the back of his hand. "Who told you to be my best friend in this life? In front of you, I have always been so casual."
They were good friends who talked about everything, and there was no need to be polite to each other. Later, she got divorced and was forced to leave her hometown, but they did not stop contacting each other.
So even if they had been separated for five years, they did not feel restrained when they met again.
She caught her breath and told them what happened last night.
Wen Yuen's eyes widened. "So, you slept with your ex-husband on the first day you came back?!"
Wan Qianqian was shocked by her conclusion, and then nodded helplessly. "… Yes."
Wen Yuen couldn't help sighing. "It's really an ill-fated relationship."
Hearing this, Wan Qianqian also sighed in her heart.
Wasn't it an ill-fated relationship? After five years, she actually met him again.
Wen Yuen said, "Will you meet him again in the future?"
Wan Qianqian shook her head and said firmly, "No! S City is so big. It can't be such a coincidence! "
She was actually comforting herself. Don't panic and don't take what happened last night to heart.
"That's true." Wen Yuen sat next to her and gently patted the back of her hand. "He was too ruthless back then. It's better not to see him, lest he makes you angry and sad."
Thinking of all the things that happened in the past, Wan Qianqian's eyes were gloomy.
She signed the agreement and started to go abroad, but he never showed up.
As for her family …
She smiled bitterly. Now, the whole Wan family had probably forgotten that they once had a daughter named Wan Qianqian.
As for why she still kept this surname … it was because she was still grateful to the Wan family for raising her. Moreover, she had no roots and didn't even know who her biological parents were …
Wen Yuen knew that she was thinking about the past, so she didn't disturb her. She helped her pack her luggage, made breakfast, and brought it to her. Then she said, "Before you find a good house, you can stay in my house. I live alone anyway."
Wan Qianqian nodded with a smile. "You have to be in charge of my food."
Wen Yuen held back her laughter and said, "No problem."
The two chatted while eating breakfast. The atmosphere was very good, as if they had returned to the carefree time in the past.
The next day, Wan Qianqian dressed up solemnly and went to Chenxi Law Firm to report.
Chenxi was not only famous in the country, but also internationally. It had once provided legal aid to a tribe in Africa that was about to be slaughtered. In the end, it won a great victory, so it gained a high reputation in the international community.
And she was a specially invited lawyer, which showed how powerful she was.
In fact, the company had originally sent an intern to the airport to pick her up yesterday, but the other party had something to do, so they only booked a hotel for her.
Who would have thought that she would meet Gu Tanfeng …
When she went to the company, she was naturally warmly welcomed by her colleagues. And Chenxi's boss, who was also her senior, Lin Chenxi, personally took her to familiarize herself with the office environment.
"In the future, you will be the mainstay of our firm." After walking around, he led her to a spacious and bright office specially prepared for her, and joked with her.
"Boss, rest assured, I will never let you down. I will definitely make a lot of money for you." Wan Qianqian rarely made a joke and responded with a smile.
Lin Chenxi shook her head with a smile. "You don't say, after learning that the internationally renowned lawyer Wan is returning to China, there were already people who started to make appointments a few months ago. You'd better be mentally prepared, you will definitely be very busy."
Wan Qianqian was very famous abroad, and was even more legendary in the country.
She smiled. "Don't worry."
Sure enough, not long after she sat down, the assistant brought in a case.
Before she had time to read it, she heard that the client had arrived.
Wan Qianqian thought for a moment and asked the assistant to bring him in.
