Chapter 40: Dahua, lingering (5)

Views:

Wen Nuan was almost sleepless all night, and when she woke up it was already dawn.

The moment she opened her eyes, she thought she had been to an unfamiliar time and space in her dream, and it would take a while for her soul to return to its shell. She hurriedly pushed the quilt aside and got up. The disturbance also woke up Zhan Nanxian who was in a light sleep. He turned sideways, supported his head with his hand, and quietly watched her going in and out of the doors of the suite. He seemed a little flustered and did not even dare to look at the handsome body of the big man. On the white bed sheet where his long legs were half-rolled and half-lying, there was a pool of eye-catching dark rose-colored blood.

Only when she had finished packing and went out to the living room to wait did a slight curve appear on his lips and he slowly got up.

After breakfast, he sent her back to Qianyu, and then went to Dahua Telecom with Gao Fang.

About two hours later, Wen Nuan received a parcel. In the sealed bag was a key to her house. The moment she opened it and saw the key, she felt a mixture of emotions. This key didn't come earlier or later, but only arrived after last night.

She dialed Wenrou's number, but heard that the phone was turned off.

After lunch, Zhan Nanxian and Gao Fang came back. The two talked in the president's office for more than an hour. After Gao Fang left, the intercom on her desk rang.

"Come in." Zhan Nanxian said.

Suppressing the uncontrollable panic in her heart, she knocked on the door and went in.

He didn't even look up from behind the big desk, but pointed to a contract on the table and said, "There's a page missing in the middle."

She said, "I'm sorry, I'll deal with it right away."

When he came back an hour ago, he said he wanted to see the contract, so she printed out the document and handed it in without checking it carefully.

This was the first time she made such a low-level mistake.

Her title is the president's secretary, and in fact her power is higher than that of a senior manager. All documents submitted to Zhan Nanxian will be reviewed by her first. If there are ambiguities, omissions, or mistakes in the content, she will send them back for redoing. If there are doubts about the terms, she will add a note and then forward them to him for review.

She printed out the missing pages, checked them carefully and put them back in a folder.

“This one is correct.”

He nodded, his expression normal, his eyes still focused on the document he was reviewing, as if he didn't notice at all that there was someone standing hesitantly across the table. A trace of humiliation and embarrassment appeared on her face for a moment, but seeing that he was completely focused on his work, she lowered her head and bit her lip silently.

Turning around and going out, she gently closed the door.

Zhan Nanxian didn't come out until he got off work in the evening, nor did he look for her again. As soon as the get off work time came, Wen Nuan left immediately, took a taxi back to her little nest which she had not seen for a whole century, fell on the sofa and buried her head in the soft pillow, motionless until late at night.

After something happens, if the parties involved no longer mention it, it's as if nothing happened.

For a whole week, the relationship between Zhan Nanxian and Wen Nuan was like this. One was still busy working as a decision maker in a large company, flying back and forth from time to time, and the other was still doing his job diligently as the general secretary, going in and out of the 66th floor. The two did not interfere with each other, and the occasional meetings at the same table were also casual.

In the adult world, why are there so many questions and explanations

The only change seemed to be that at the suggestion of Gao Fang, the Dahua Telecom case was finally handed back to Wen Nuan, and Zhang Duanyan moved downstairs in disappointment.
