Gu Linxi suddenly understood that Cui Hao’s appearance here was definitely related to Huo Xiahe. As for the purpose, it was obvious; Huo Xiahe had orchestrated their eting here, not just out of kindness to let them et...
She lowered her eyelids, her body lazily leaning against the back of the chair, holding the lemon water from the shop, taking small sips. Her nonchalant deanor seed not to notice Huo Xiahe’s little sches, making those already anxious even more uncertain if she had detected anything.
During the ti it took to drink a glass of water, the group had already gone upstairs.
Whenever Cui Hao went out, the manager of Bolai Hotel would be on hand to introduce the hotel’s history, culture, various facilities, and the restaurant where they would have lunch today.
Suddenly, a man walking beside Cui Hao spotted a situation by the window with sharp eyes. First, he was surprised and then curled up a lively smile, "Oh, isn’t that Mr. Cui’s son, Mr. Cui? Who are the two people sitting next to him?"
His abrupt shout drew everyone’s attention to the direction he ntioned.
Naturally, Cui Hao looked over, his authoritative face wrinkling into an obvious mood of irritation.
That brat hadn’t even called ho since their argunt last night, acting like he really wanted to sever ties, it was truly infuriating!
"Xiahe?"
When he saw Huo Xiahe sitting there, he was taken aback for a mont. Had that brat gone to pick her up? His slightly pale face looked a bit better, but when his gaze turned to the other side, he imdiately saw the woman sitting next to his son—clad in casual clothes, unruly, utterly unpresentable!
With just a glance, he assessed this woman whom he had never t before as his son’s girlfriend. He disapproved and would never allow such a sloppy woman into the Cui Family.
He withdrew his gaze, expressionless, and said to the others, "Let’s go, we should go eat too."
Everyone was about to leave when an out-of-tune voice popped up, "Don’t, Mr. Cui, since we’ve bumped into them, why don’t we go over and say hello to Mr. Cui? After all, we aren’t in a rush to eat; als can be had anyti. It’s rare to see Mr. Cui here; it wouldn’t be right for us as uncles to leave without even greeting him. Don’t you agree?"
"Uh, well..."
Everyone present was sharp; how could they not be aware of the feud between the two?
Cui Hao held fifty percent of Jingcheng Pharmaceutical Industry’s shares, exerting oppressive power that left other shareholders feeling suffocated. Zhao Hengyang, as the second-largest shareholder of Jingcheng Pharmaceutical Industry and the Cui family’s son-in-law, had felt the sting of his limited influence in the company over the years. He often clashed openly and covertly with Cui Hao, becoming a source of entertainnt for others. Out of respect for his sister, Cui Hao didn’t take advantage of his power to kick this restless brother-in-law out of the company, despite disliking him.
Zhao Hengyang, in turn, resented him, believing that keeping him around was just a way to mock him. Finally having the chance to see Cui Hao lose face, he was, of course, more eager than anyone else to capitalize on it.
"I heard so days ago that Mr. Cui had started dating a girl who opened an auto repair shop in Capital City. She’s particularly smart and capable. Could this be his girlfriend?"
In the presence of prominent figures, his indication that Gu Linxi was rely a chanic sparked various intriguing reactions among the crowd.
A chanic seed overly plain!
A chanic who could have the favored son of the Cui Family wrapped around her finger indeed must be shrewd and capable!
