As soon as the door of the conference room was pushed open, a faint smell of tobacco greeted her, forcing Wan Qianqian to frown deeply. She subconsciously held her breath and stopped in her tracks. Her bright eyes stared straight at the person sitting in the conference room. That face still made her feel a little panicky.
At the same time that Wan Qianqian raised her eyes, Sakai Masao also came in the direction of the door. There was a trace of astonishment in those slightly narrow eyes, and then a hint of a smile began to gather.
That gaze made Wan Qianqian feel a little uncomfortable, and she subconsciously looked away. But she could clearly feel that the burning gaze had been on her, as if it was going to stare a hole in her.
"Mr. Sakai Masao, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Fortunately, Lin Chenxi who followed behind also arrived at this time. When he walked to Wan Qianqian's side, he felt the strange and subtle atmosphere. The next moment, he hurriedly greeted Sakai Masao in the direction of Sakai Masao, dispelling the discomfort of Wan Qianqian.
Sakai Masao's gaze that fell on Wan Qianqian also gradually retracted. That face with a smile, he nodded slightly at Lin Chenxi and said in very broken Mandarin, "Lawyer Lin, hello."
The next second, his gaze that concealed an unknown smile once again fell on Wan Qianqian. The more sensitive Wan Qianqian instantly sensed it, and that anger immediately wrapped her whole heart. Just as she could not bear to open her mouth and wanted to say something, a figure blocked in front of her.
It was Lin Chenxi, that imposing figure just happened to block Wan Qianqian's slender figure, and the action seemed to be unintentional. Only that gentle and distant face could be heard saying softly, "Mr. Sakai Masao, let's talk about the case."
Sakai Masao, whose line of sight was blocked by Lin Chenxi, was obviously a little unhappy. His handsome face faintly began to reveal some seriousness, and a sharp light burst out from his slightly narrow eyes.
The oppressive atmosphere in the air gradually began to become obvious, lingering around everyone. Wan Qianqian, who was hiding behind Lin Chenxi, also clearly and sensitively sensed it. After slightly narrowing her eyes, she pushed Lin Chenxi in front of her away. Her face was very calm, and there was no longer any anger.
"Let's talk about the matter." The coldness covered all her emotions. The corner of her mouth was pursed in a standard arc. After gently dropping these words, she walked in the direction of Sakai Masao, and then sat down opposite him.
After she sat down, Sakai Masao's gaze became even more unscrupulous. That naked and sharp gaze made Wan Qianqian feel that there was a cold and slippery snake crawling on her body. That feeling made her so disgusted that she wanted to vomit.
"Mr. Sakai, this case …" After sitting down, Wan Qianqian forcibly suppressed the stomach acid that was constantly churning in her stomach to not vomit. She opened the document that Lin Chenxi brought over in a businesslike manner, and without even looking at Sakai Masao, she began to explain the case to her.
But before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Sakai Masao. He stretched out a right hand to make a gesture to stop her from continuing to speak, and with a friendly smile on his face, he said, "Qianqian, I don't mind you calling me Masao."
The air was once again controlled by silence, and this sentence made the awkward atmosphere in the air constantly active. Wan Qianqian clearly felt that the stomach acid was churning more violently, and a feeling of nausea almost rushed to her throat. If she did not hold it in, she would have vomited. Fortunately, she still managed to hold it.
It was just that the expression on her face had become unreasonably stiff, and the hands that were originally on the document were quietly put back under the table. Her hands slowly began to clench into pink fists, and because of the excessive force, the bones became a little white.
Lin Chenxi, who was sitting next to Wan Qianqian, was the most aware of her emotional changes, and rushed to speak before Wan Qianqian could get angry, "Mr. Sakai, please behave yourself."
There was a trace of anger in her voice, and it was full of warning. In particular, Lin Chenxi's usually gentle and warm eyes became particularly fierce at this time, as if if Sakai Masao said anything more, the flames of war would start.
Lin Chenxi's words pulled Wan Qianqian back from the state where she was suppressed to the extreme and almost collapsed, and the anger that had already rushed to her head subsided little by little at this time. A smile as cold as the winter appeared on her delicate face, and the slightly drooping head slowly lifted up.
Two small flames flickered in her bright eyes, and the aura around her spread out little by little. Leaning on the back of the chair, her body leaned forward slightly, and did not hide her disgust. "You'd better not play tricks with me, the relationship between us has not reached this level of address, not in the past, not now, and definitely not in the future."
"How do you know there is no such thing, Qianqian." Not only was Sakai Masao not angry, the smile on his face even showed a tendency to gradually widen, and he still used such a way to address Wan Qianqian.
The next second, Wan Qianqian slammed the table and stood up. She clenched her fist and slammed the solid table, making a crisp sound. The table that she was sitting on fell behind her because of such a big movement, making a heavy collision sound.
The sound that contained the endless smell of gunpowder made the conference room extraordinarily quiet. Everyone's eyes fell on Wan Qianqian, only to see that her taut face was very gloomy, and she stared at Sakai Masao.
"If you have no intention of discussing the case, I think there is no need for us to continue talking." Wan Qianqian did not want to talk to him anymore, and very clearly showed her attitude. After she finished speaking, she closed the document in front of her, picked it up and turned to leave.
Obviously, she was not willing to talk to Sakai Masao anymore, and only left a resolute back. And Lin Chenxi did not stop Wan Qianqian, the following matters should be left to him to discuss.
But when he thought that the case would eventually be handed over to her, Lin Chenxi's heart was filled with a lot of worries. Maybe he should reconsider whether the case should really be handed over to Wan Qianqian. He always felt a little uneasy, and his eyelids twitched slightly.
When Wan Qianqian walked to the door and was about to reach out and push the door open, Sakai Masao's broken Chinese sounded again, and the voice was very slow, "I heard that Gu Tanfeng has not appeared for three or four months?"
This sentence abruptly made Wan Qianqian's footsteps stop, and her whole body shook fiercely. For a moment, she did not know how to face Sakai Masao's words. With her understanding of Sakai Masao, from his mouth, there must be some other meaning, and the purpose was not simple.
At this time, the matter of Sakai Masao's cooperation with Gu's flashed quickly in Wan Qianqian's mind, and some speculations of the answer crossed her heart, which made her look gloomy. She firmly suppressed the questions that were about to come out, and asked without turning around, "Sakai Masao, what do you mean?"
Sakai Masao, who still did not have much panic, shrugged slightly, stood up from the chair, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked towards Wan Qianqian with a very leisurely look. He approached Wan Qianqian step by step. At the same time, he answered Wan Qianqian's question, "What do you think, Qianqian?"
Every time Sakai Masao took a step closer, Wan Qianqian felt that her heart beat faster. The sound of the soles colliding with the floor was like an invisible big hand clutching her heart, and as he got closer, it began to tighten.
"Do you want to swallow the whole Gu's?" Her hands hidden in her sleeves clenched into pink fists, and her sharp nails almost sank into the tender flesh of her palms. The pain from her palms quickly spread to every part of her body along with her senses, which made it difficult for her to gather her reason.
This speculation came from the beginning when she knew that Sakai Masao had cooperated with Gu's. Wan Qianqian began to speculate that a senior in Gu's colluded with Sakai Masao, and the purpose was to swallow the whole Gu's.
Wan Qianqian's voice was almost certain. At the moment of speaking, she turned around and looked at Sakai Masao without fear. After that, she quietly waited for his answer.
"You can say that. Maybe we can cooperate? I can help you get the whole Gu's. " Sakai Masao began to tempt Wan Qianqian. His words were full of infinite temptation, and his narrow eyes kept lingering on her.
For the first time, Wan Qianqian had an impulse to beat someone up. She restrained the anger that was about to erupt, and responded to Sakai Masao with a sarcastic angle. "In your dreams."
"Don't you want to know where Gu Tanfeng is?" Unexpectedly, at the moment when her voice fell, Sakai Masao spoke again. His confident attitude did not change in the slightest. From the beginning, he firmly controlled Wan Qianqian.
One sentence extinguished the burning anger of Wan Qianqian. She looked at Sakai Masao with a confused face. She was obviously intimidated by that sentence. Her mind seemed to be stirred by someone so hard that she completely lost the ability to think.
Lin Chenxi had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two. When he heard this, his expression also tightened. He suddenly stood up from the chair and walked in their direction. Before he got close to Sakai Masao, he was intercepted by Sakai Masao's assistant.
"Mr. Sakai, what do you mean? Today we are here to talk about the case, not to chat with you. "Lin Chenxi's tone became particularly stiff, forcibly trying to pull the topic back.
