She was about to put down the magazine when Gu Shaozhi grasped her hand, stopping her, "Sit down, there’s nothing you can’t hear."
Innocent Secretary Liu heard Mr. Gu’s words, which seed to indicate he was ready to et Miss Shen.
Secretary Liu turned aside, raised her hand in a ’please enter’ gesture, and after Shen Weiyi walked into the office, she helped close the door.
Standing at the center of the office, Shen Weiyi suddenly felt that the lunch she had made herself was sowhat ridiculous.
The two sitting on the sofa weren’t being overly intimate; the woman lazily flipped through a magazine resting on her lap, while the man gently played with her soft left hand, casually caressing each of her fingers.
She had seen them in more intimate monts, so the scene before her was actually quite ordinary by comparison.
Proud as she was, she certainly would not let the bitterness in her heart show even the slightest bit, her beautiful face remaining as serene and gentle as ever.
Nonetheless, she tightened her arms around the paper bag.
After Secretary Liu placed three cups of coffee on the coffee table and respectfully exited the office, Shen Weiyi spoke softly, "Shaozhi, I..."
"If it’s about Gao Yue, there’s no need to waste ti."
Shen Weiyi had only said three words before the man’s calm voice interrupted her.
Indeed, before looking for Ji Wanxia, Shen Weiyi had already called Gu Shaozhi, and he had said the sa on the phone.
It wasn’t exactly cold, yet it was far from warm.
It was the professional deanor that should exist between the decision-maker of the largest entertainnt company and an artist under his managent.
Shen Weiyi looked away, her voice steady, "But Shaozhi, the movie and entertainnt shows Xiao Yue participated in have decent results, bringing considerable economic benefits to the company. Why are you being so...unreasonable to her?"
There was no given reason, so all the scenes with Gao Yue were cut.
In the entertainnt industry, nothing is more important than self-interest; the supposedly genuine sisterhood is all fake. She kept lowering her dignity for Gao Yue, simply to verify one thing.
One thing she convinced herself would never change.
In An City, everyone knew Mr. Gu had been waiting for Shen Weiyi for ten years. Even when his love interest and best friend were together, he remained by her side, under the guise of friendship.
Thus, all of Shen Weiyi’s confidence stemd from these ten years.
Gu Shaozhi continued to casually play with the woman’s delicate hand, and in a languidly noble manner, he never once looked up at Shen Weiyi.
His thin lips parted slightly, speaking leisurely, "She offended , isn’t that reason enough?"
Clearly, it was Ji Wanxia that Gao Yue had offended, yet he said...she offended him.
Shen Weiyi looked at the man on the sofa in disbelief. Standing as she was, this angle allowed her a clear view of everything behind the coffee table.
On the surface, Miss Ji appeared to be engrossed in her magazine, making not the slightest sound that might disturb the others discussing business. Yet her toes were subtly brushing against the man’s calf.
It was the behavior of a seductive antagonist.
Shen Weiyi bit her lip hard with her white teeth, looking at Gu Shaozhi with a gaze that carried a hint of pitiful emotion, "Shaozhi, can’t you just do this for ?"
In the past, no matter her request, he would do his best to et it.
"I’m going to the restroom," Wanxia withdrew her hand from the man’s warm palm, put the magazine back in place, and then turned to the man beside her, "It seems that Miss Shen has sothing quite important, my presence here might be inhibiting her performance."
Her eyes were clear as spring water, and just by looking like that, one wouldn’t think she was the one who had just enticed him.
Gu Shaozhi chuckled, reached up, and pinched her cheek, "I’ll go with you."
Wanxia shook her head to decline, "No need, I’m not an idiot child."
As she walked around the coffee table and passed by Shen Weiyi, she paused for a few seconds, blinking with an apologetic expression, "Sorry, Miss Shen, you may continue."
From the mont she entered, Shen Weiyi had considered Wanxia as air, now knowing she was putting on an act, she naturally ignored her.
The ’sincere’ apology received no response, and Wanxia seed unbothered, hooking her fair fingers around her sunglasses, she walked out of the office with light steps.
Of course, she thoughtfully closed the door for the two of them.
Secretary Liu saw that it was Wanxia who ca out, her eyes showing brief surprise, "Miss Ji, are you leaving?"
