"Hello, Chief Gu, welcome to our Carlyle Group's Christmas party." This man was Kevin, and he extended his hand to Gu Nianzhi respectfully.
Gu Nianzhi hung up the phone, looked back at him, and nodded calmly, "Hello, I have something else to do, so excuse me."
I had no intention of talking to him.
Kevin was not angry and said with a smile: "Are you familiar with Miss Guo?"
Gu Nianzhi paused in his steps, "I'm not very familiar with him, I just know him."
"... Then you have to get familiar with it in the future." Kevin said one sentence after another, his attitude was much more cautious than when he was dealing with Guo Huining.
Gu Nianzhi turned around and looked at him, and said calmly: "Excuse me, what is your name? Do I know you?"
They talked for a long time without even introducing themselves. Was she familiar with him
Gu Nianzhi didn't see the identity tag on Kevin's chest.
Kevin raised his eyebrows, "Chief Gu, don't you know me?"
"Why do I know you?" Gu Nianzhi was annoyed by such sterile conversations, but after being in the Upper House of Parliament for so long, he also understood that this kind of small talk was unavoidable and was a way to bring people closer.
"Oh, I was negligent. Let me introduce myself. I am the chief operating officer of Carlyle Group. My name is Kevin." He winked at Gu Nianzhi and pointed to his identity tag. "I'm here to inspect Carlyle China. As someone who works in a branch office, I never imagined that it would be an honor for me to speak to Chief Gu."
Gu Nianshang looked Kevin up and down and said, "You're welcome, your company's Christmas party is very interesting."
"Really? I'm worried that Chief Gu will find it boring!" Kevin didn't notice the teasing in Gu Nianzhi's tone.
Gu Nianzhi just came to the floor-to-ceiling window alone in order to make a phone call.
The two assistants and security personnel who followed her were scattered around where they could see her but not disturb her privacy.
Kevin was able to break through these people and get to Gu Nianzhi, of course, relying on his identity badge.
He stood not far away from Gu Nianzhi and said with a smile: "To be honest, I have admired the name of the chief for a long time when I was in the United States. But at that time, I will show my talents in the law firm in the future. I didn’t expect you to enter the Upper House of Parliament after graduation.”
"Oh? How do you know me?"
A waiter came over holding a tray with prepared cocktails and snacks for the guests present.
Gu Nianzhi grabbed a cocktail, not to drink it, but to show off, so that he wouldn't be too out of the ordinary like everyone else.
Kevin also took a glass, raised it to Gu Nianzhi, took a sip first, and said, "Shall we go to the garden behind to chat?"
"Are you okay?" Gu Nianzhi said with a smile, "I'm here for the Christmas party, not for business negotiations."
"That's such a pity. I originally wanted to talk to you about the legislative issues regarding parliament's access to foreign investment in the financial industry." Kevin said with pretense of regret, "Don't you want to hear our opinions?"
"It's best for you to talk to Chairman Long about this kind of matter. I'm just a legal advisor, not even a member of the parliament. I can't help you with anything." At this moment, Gu Nianzhi felt someone looking at her, with neither light nor heavy eyes. There was a hint of probing, but when she raised her eyes slightly, the gaze moved away.
It seemed to be seen from the crowd over there.
Gu Nianzhi lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then strolled towards the garden indicated by Kevin just now.
Kevin got what he wanted, smiled and walked a few steps quickly, walking side by side with Gu Nianzhi.
Of course, Gu Nianzhi's assistants and security personnel followed quickly, walking not far or close to the two people in front.
…
Guo Huining stood next to Huo Guanchen, bit his lip and looked at him, then looked at the direction where Gu Nianzhi and Kevin disappeared, smiled and said, "Guanchen, should we also go to the garden behind? This Sheraton Hotel I don’t come here often, but I’ve heard that the gardens here are very exquisite and have a tropical rainforest look, which is said to be very similar to the natural landscape in Florida, USA.”
She actually felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to get together with Gu Nianzhi at all.
Huo Guanchen spoke for her just now, which gave her infinite hope.
But in the blink of an eye, Huo Guanchen's attention was no longer on her. Although he was still standing next to her, she could see that his heart had already flown to Gu Nianzhi...
I really don’t know what’s so good about this woman, everyone is fascinated by her.
However, although he felt uncomfortable, Guo Huining knew how to make a man feel comfortable.
That is to figure out their thoughts, and then speak and act in accordance with their thoughts.
Since she could see that Huo Guanchen's thoughts were with Gu Nianzhi at this moment, she brought it up just right.
Huo Guanchen actually said he only had twenty minutes, but now it was almost twenty minutes, and he had no intention of leaving.
Guo Huining felt even more unhappy.
Huo Guanchen just watched the backs of Gu Nianzhi and Kevin disappear in the direction of the left back door of the hall. He put the red wine glass on the table with a little displeasure and said, "Then let's go and take a look."
Guo Huining endured it again and again, and did not continue to ask: "...you won't go back to the meeting?"
If Huo Guanchen didn't mention it, she wouldn't embarrass him.
The two walked through the left back door of the hall and found that it was actually a T-shaped corridor with a bifurcation at the front.
Just in time to see Gu Nianzhi and Kevin turning left.
Huo Guanchen quickly followed.
Guo Huining was about to follow when he suddenly felt his cell phone vibrating in his handbag.
Her heart moved, she stopped, took out her phone and took a look.
It was Deputy Director Jia who sent her a photo and a text message: [Forward to Song].
Guo Huining hurriedly opened the photo and took a look, his pupils suddenly widened.
In the photo, I saw Gu Nianzhi standing on tiptoes and kissing a man from behind!
The man lowered his head and couldn't see his face clearly, but it looked like it was Kevin!
Although Gu Nianzhi was tall, he was as harmonious as a bird in front of this man.
Guo Huining couldn't help but secretly wonder. He always felt that Gu Nianzhi didn't seem like such a casual person, but he also admired Kevin's ability. This was their first meeting, so why did Gu Nian take the bait
She curled her lips and didn't care whether the photo was real or fake, as long as she could deal with those people.
She casually forwarded it to Song Jinning.
Song Jinning had just come out of the laboratory at this time.
The results of today's experiment were good, but they were still different from their expectations.
Song Jinning planned to go back to the office and calculate it carefully, and then refer to the experimental notes left by Gu Xiangwen to see if it could be quantified.
Just then, she heard her cell phone ring.
It was so late, and Lu Yuan usually called her, or sent her supper, or picked her up and took her home. She was used to it.
But when she took out her phone and took a look, she realized she had made a mistake.
It wasn't a phone call or text message from Lu Yuan, but a photo from Guo Huining.
Song Jinning twitched her lips, thinking that Huo Guanchen really had a good relationship with Guo Huining, and he could even tell Guo Huining her mobile phone number.
After clicking on the photo and taking a look, Song Jinning's eyes widened in surprise.
what happened? !
Is this a thought? !
One look at the graceful curve of her back, and she knew that she must have made a mistake.
After rubbing her phone a few times with her fingers, she subconsciously wanted to forward it to Huo Shaoheng, but she quickly held back.
This kind of thing, whether it is true or not, is the fault of Ge Ying Nianzhi and Shao Heng. She cannot let Guo Huining's intention succeed.
After thinking for a moment, Song Jinning replied to Guo Huining via text message: [What is this place? Are you dazzled? Or are you secretly filming others?].
