"Ding — —" The closed elevator door slowly opened again, and a burst of low pressure came from the opened gap, pressuring Sakai Masao and others. A bad premonition slowly rose from the bottom of Sakai Masao and Li Yong's heart.
Their eyelids were still twitching, and the bad premonition was even stronger around them. Everyone's eyes fell on the elevator door, watching attentively, as if they didn't want to miss even a second.
After the elevator door completely opened, a figure in a dark blue suit stood there like a king. The gaze revealed from that pair of deep eyes was so disdainful that it always gave people a condescending attitude.
"Gu …" When Li Yong's eyes caught this figure, his pupils gradually enlarged to the extreme, and a bitter and stiff word was squeezed out from his throat.
Immediately in exchange for Gu Tanfeng's cold eyes, he didn't even stay for a second before withdrawing his gaze. He naturally stretched out his hands to tidy up his suit and walked toward the elevator door. Behind him was He Zeng who always seemed to have a faint smile on his face.
"Director Wen, hello." Gu Tanfeng, whose face was full of cold expression, walked straight in the direction of Wen Jingxin. His stiff face seemed to have a trace of loosening, and his thin lips gently opened to greet politely.
The sudden good attitude made Wen Jingxin's whole body stiffen in place, and ecstasy slowly seeped out from the bottom of her heart. After being stunned, the petite face quickly bloomed into a bright smile that was comparable to the sun, and her head nodded like it was pounding garlic.
"Hello, hello, Mr. Gu, I thought you weren't coming." Wen Jingxin didn't lose her reason, and she quickly cooperated with Gu Tanfeng in this play.
In the next second, a strange expression appeared on Gu Tanfeng's face. His eyebrows, which were as sharp as blades, slightly raised. Out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced in the direction of Sakai Masao and Li Yong. Confusion gradually occupied his face. "What do you mean?"
"Just now, I asked Boss Li …" Wen Jingxin subconsciously opened her mouth to answer. The innocent expression on her face was so pure that no one could doubt it.
The instant the words left his mouth, the extremely anxious Li Yong's forehead was already dripping with sweat, continuously flowing along his facial muscles. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and gently wiped his sweat. He hurriedly stepped forward and interrupted Wen Jingxin. "President!"
Excited shouts successfully interrupted Wen Jingxin's subsequent narration. At the same time, the gazes of everyone descended onto Li Yong, and various gazes stared at him, causing the sweat on his forehead to flow even more rapidly.
A strange emotion flashed in Gu Tanfeng's eyes. Then, he looked at Li Yong with a confused expression and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Although the voice was particularly light, when it fell on the hearts of Li Yong and the others, it was like a heavy stone, pressing down on them to the point that they almost couldn't breathe. For a moment, the words that he wanted to say seemed to be fiercely suppressed. His lips slightly squirmed, but he didn't know what to say.
Standing beside him, Sakai Masao's face was gloomy to a certain extent. The displeasure between his brows was particularly obvious. The corners of his mouth pursed up into a fake smile. "Mr. Gu, I heard that you lost your memory?"
"Where did Mr. Sakai hear this rumor from? Wasn't the lesson from back then enough? " The moment Sakai Masao's voice fell, Gu Tanfeng opened his mouth to retort. His magnetic voice always gave people a heavy sense of oppression, and the hostility between the words gave people a very clear feeling.
The moment the words came out, Sakai Masao's face darkened to a new height, and his narrow eyes burst out with a fierce light.
There was clearly a strong smell of gunpowder flowing between the two of them, and it seemed like the two of them would fight in the next second. A pair of deep and sharp eyes collided with a pair of narrow and malicious eyes. Sparks seemed to appear in the air as the two pairs of eyes looked at each other. Unknowingly, a secret competition began.
When they stood at the entrance of the venue, the CEOs and bosses of the various companies who came out of the elevator later were all smart people. The moment they stepped out of the elevator, they had the urge to retreat.
As time trickled by, the entrance to the banquet hall was already starting to get crowded. As the host of the banquet, Wen Jingxin forced a smile onto her face as she risked her life to stand between the two men whose Rage points were already on the verge of exploding.
That pair of bright gem-like eyes projected a kind and amiable attitude, gently persuading them. "What are the two of you doing? The banquet is about to start, go in. "
If Sakai Masao didn't follow the steps that Wen Jingxin had arranged, he wouldn't be Sakai Masao. The anger on his face suddenly dissipated, and he returned to his friendly attitude. He nodded slightly at Wen Jingxin and said, "Then Miss Wen, I'll go in first."
After saying that, he led Li Yong and the others into the venue, not even giving Wen Jingxin a chance to answer. It was as if he was afraid that the next second, Gu Tanfeng would say something to anger him, causing him to lose his composure.
The deadlock was broken just like that. The group of people blocking the elevator door hesitated for a while, but still braced themselves and walked up. After a hurried greeting, they walked into the venue. Soon, only Gu Tanfeng, He Zeng, and Wen Jingxin were left at the entrance of the venue. The atmosphere was still on the edge of depression.
A look of displeasure climbed onto Gu Tanfeng's handsome face, and this emotion was clearly seen by Wen Jingxin's eyes. She sighed lightly without a trace and persuaded intentionally or unintentionally, "In this situation, it's not suitable for you to say too much."
"CEO Wen, CEO Chen is looking for you." A person wearing a hotel waiter's uniform came over and called Wen Jingxin with a very respectful attitude.
"Okay, I'll be there in a moment." Wen Jingxin nodded slightly at the waiter and replied. After the waiter walked away, Wen Jingxin's gaze returned to Gu Tanfeng. Her petite face was already occupied with seriousness. "Don't act rashly. Now the economic and financial market of City S has become very complicated."
After saying that with a heavy heart, Wen Jingxin's complicated gaze fell on Gu Tanfeng for a few seconds. Finally, she slowly said this sentence and turned to leave. "I'll go over there first. Find me if you need anything."
The angular face was as expressionless as ever, but his stalwart body stood there for a long time as if he was thinking about something. He Zeng also showed a thoughtful expression on his face, and complex emotions gradually overflowed from his skin.
In the end, after careful consideration, He Zeng pursed his thin lips slightly and seriously suggested, "CEO, maybe we really should listen to Wen Jingxin."
"Let's go in first." Gu Tanfeng did not give a clear answer. He just cast his deep gaze into the venue and then moved inside. He Zeng also followed behind.
The moment he walked in, everyone's eyes were attracted by Gu Tanfeng's aura. All kinds of gazes lingered on him. When Gu Tanfeng's innate aura of a king was released into the venue, everyone's breathing couldn't help but become heavy.
…
Jiaorou, who was curled up on the sofa, stared blankly at a large and exquisite box on the coffee table. In the box lay a dark style gown, neatly folded. From the surface of the gown, it could be felt that the design was designed to walk the path of a queen. Wan Qianqian knew that this gown was indeed suitable for her.
However, this gown was sent by Masao Sakai, and the purpose was the dark purple invitation letter next to the box on the coffee table. Complex emotions gathered in Wan Qianqian's heart bit by bit. She was extremely unwilling to go.
Because of the struggle and confusion for a long time, she felt a slight pain in her temple. Subconsciously, she stretched out her slender fingers and rubbed her temple. The bitter smile on the corner of her mouth was even more obvious. The pain forced her to directly bury her face deep into her knees.
The ringtone of a phone rang in the quiet living room. It was like a series of urging voices entering Wan Qianqian's mind, making the pain in her temples even more obvious. Subconsciously, she was very resistant to this phone call.
But the phone seemed to be competing with her. It kept ringing very tenaciously and didn't stop for a long time. Instead, it was getting stronger and stronger.
Wan Qianqian, who was agitated little by little in her heart, reached out helplessly to pick up the mobile phone beside her and quickly pressed the answer button. Her attitude was extremely unfriendly. "What's the matter!"
The person on the phone seemed to be frightened by the sudden roar. He didn't speak for a while until two or three seconds later, Wan Qianqian shouted into the phone again, "Say something!"
"Ah …" The shout made the person begin to come back to his senses. After a puzzled "ah", he suddenly remembered what he wanted to say, "Well, Miss Wan, are you ready? The banquet has already begun, you … "
"Shut up!" As the persuasive words fell into Wan Qianqian's ears, the agitation in her heart became greater and greater. She directly roared out these two words. The anger contained in her voice was so obvious that the person on the phone was stunned.
There was some slight noise on the phone, as if someone was pulling it. Then a different voice came from the phone, "Miss Wan, Mr. Sakai asked me to tell you that if you don't go, the owner of Gu's will be changed tomorrow."
It was an undisguised threat. As soon as the words fell, there was a busy tone on the phone, not giving Wan Qianqian a chance to speak at all.
