Chapter 33: The Drama Has to Go On

The bidding conference.

Xiang Wanqiao saw that the conference had not started yet, so she leaned over and said to Gu Jingzhan, I’m going to the bathroom.

Okay. Gu Jingzhan nodded, Go quickly and come back soon.

Okay. Xiang Wanqiao stood up and left the venue.

Xiao Xuan saw Xiang Wanqiao leave, followed her figure with his eyes, and then stood up and walked out of the venue.

Master, Xiao Xuan went out with the lady.

Xiang Yuan received the report from his men and conveyed it to Gu Jingzhan.

Gu Jingzhan’s eyebrows sank, and he clenched his fingers tightly, ordering expressionlessly: Protect the lady’s safety.

Xiang Yuan hesitated, and finally responded: Yes.

He really didn’t understand what Xiang Wanqiao had in her that made Master Zhan so devoted to her.

Obviously, she lied all the time and deceived again and again, but Master Zhan still kept her by his side.

If this continues, sooner or later Master Zhan will die in her hands.

After Xiang Wanqiao came out of the venue, she knew that Xiao Xuan’an would definitely follow her out, so she deliberately avoided the crowd and walked to a place where there were not many people.

Then, she stopped at a corner, folded her arms over her chest, and leaned lazily against the wall, waiting for him to come over.

Xiao Xuan’an caught up with her, and saw Xiang Wanqiao stopped there waiting for him, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

Qiaoqiao.

Xiang Wanqiao felt physically uncomfortable when she heard Xiao Xuan’an calling her like that, but the show had to go on before the bidding results were announced.

She suppressed the nausea in her heart and smiled, Brother An, I finally see you again. I missed you so much.

Qiaoqiao, I miss you too. Xiao Xuan’an walked up to her and took her hand, By the way, weren’t you locked up by Gu Jingzhan? Why did he bring you out again today?

I was indeed locked up by that bastard Gu Jingzhan.

Xiang Wanqiao blinked her eyes, trying to squeeze out two tears, showing an extremely aggrieved look.

But I thought you would definitely be at today’s bidding meeting, and I wanted to see you, so I went to beg that bastard Gu Jingzhan for a long time last night, and he agreed to take me out.

Xiao Xuan looked at her so aggrieved and asked with concern: He didn’t do anything to you?

That’s not the case. Xiang Wanqiao took the opportunity to trick him, But how did you know that I was locked up by Gu Jingzhan? I remember I didn’t tell you.

I heard Wei…

Xiao Xuan almost said it out.

He braked the car in a hurry, and after thinking quickly in his mind, he replied to her seriously: Didn’t Siwei go to see you yesterday? She heard that you were locked up by Gu Jingzhan, and she was particularly worried, so she called me to tell me about it.

Oh? Really? Xiang Wanqiao asked him innocently, when did you and Weiwei become so familiar with each other?

Hearing this question from Xiang Wanqiao, Xiao Xuan’s heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that this stupid woman knew something?

He suddenly became suspicious and looked at Xiang Wanqiao in front of him calmly, but he could not see any clues from her eyes.

Qiaoqiao, why are you…

What’s wrong with me? Xiang Wanqiao pouted and said aggrievedly, Brother An, you knew that I was locked up by that bastard Gu Jingzhan, but you didn’t try to save me. Do you no longer have me in your heart?

After that, she pretended to be angry, shook off Xiao Xuan’s hand, and turned her head away.

Xiao Xuan coughed lightly, put his hands on her shoulders, and coaxed her softly: What nonsense are you talking about? How could I not have you in my heart?

Xiang Wanqiao ignored him.

At this moment, Xiao Xuan’s suspicion disappeared, and he just wanted to coax her.

I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, Qiaoqiao, don’t be angry.

What did you do wrong?

Everything is wrong.

Perfunctory.

Xiao Xuan pulled her into his arms to cheer her up, Don’t be angry, okay?

Xiang Wanqiao’s face suddenly changed, and she pushed him away.

Xiao Xuan was stunned, looking at her in astonishment, and asked: Qiaoqiao, what’s wrong with you?

Nothing. She took a deep breath, Gu Jingzhan’s spies are everywhere here, we should be careful.

Xiao Xuan felt that she made sense, his eyes returned to calm, and nodded, that’s right.

Xiang Wanqiao smiled and said to him: Brother An, just relax, the West City Tourism Resort project must belong to you.

Xiao Xuan curled his lips, without any doubt, Wait until I gain a foothold in the Xiao family and get the inheritance rights of the Xiao family, I will help you deal with Gu Jingzhan and let you escape from his clutches.

Okay.

Xiang Wanqiao sneered in her heart.

Xiao Xuan, I won’t let you have this chance!

After Xiang Wanqiao separated from Xiao Xuan’an, she went to the bathroom and washed her hands that had just been touched by Xiao Xuan’an.

She returned to the venue and sat next to Gu Jingzhan.

Gu Jingzhan had a dark face, and the aura around him was as cold as frost, which made people shiver.

Xiang Wanqiao noticed the change in his mood, reached out to hold his hand, and asked with concern: What’s wrong?

Gu Jingzhan silently avoided her touch.

Xiang Wanqiao looked at him like this, and he was obviously angry.

It seems that Gu Jingzhan knew that she had just gone out to meet Xiao Xuan’an.

She sighed inaudibly, moved her lips, and was about to explain to him.

Suddenly, the host on the stage spoke.

Dear leaders, distinguished guests, good afternoon! The bidding conference for the development project of the Chengxi Tourism Resort initiated by the government department is now starting. Please abide by the venue discipline.

Seeing the bidding conference start, Xiang Wanqiao held back what she wanted to say, thinking that she would slowly explain to him after the bidding conference was over.

The conference process went on one by one, and it was time to determine the final quotation.

Gu Jingzhan glanced at Xiang Wanqiao beside him, but suddenly hesitant in his heart.

Xiang Yuan glanced at Xiang Wanqiao, then leaned over Gu Jingzhan’s ear, covered his mouth and whispered to him: Master Zhan, should we…

Before he finished speaking, he saw Gu Jingzhan resolutely determine the amount on the bid as the final quotation for the project.

Master Zhan… Xiang Yuan wanted to persuade.

Gu Jingzhan tilted his eyes and glanced at him lightly.

For a moment, all the words Xiang Yuan wanted to say were stuck in his throat, and he could only shut his mouth in embarrassment.

Xiang Wanqiao listened to the noises between the two, turned her head curiously and asked, what’s wrong?

Gu Jingzhan continued to remain silent and did not even give her a look.

Seeing that he was still ignoring her, Xiang Wanqiao pursed her lips unhappily and cursed in her heart, Bastard!

After coaxing him for a few days, his temper is getting worse and worse!

But think about it, the last time she saw the photo of Gu Jingzhan drinking with another woman, she couldn’t stand it herself, let alone him.

Moreover, she and Xiao Xuan’an have a criminal record, so it is normal for him to be so angry.

Forget it, don’t bother with him, after all he makes him his man! 

Just coax him!
