CHAPTER 799: CHAPTER 799: THE WHITE FLOWER SNAKE WITH A HUNDRED RESPONSES (2)

"Didn’t Director Chen seek you out? Isn’t that enough to prove you have value?" Gu Nuan’s expression remained indifferent, not swayed by the other party’s provocations.

"Yes, but I’ve essentially sold all I could to Director Chen. In fact, if you approached Director Chen, you could resolve this issue directly."

It was clear to see and hear that this ex was just nitpicking.

Li Changzhi’s gaze briefly darkened—a woman could tell that Wa Zicong was clinging on to his old flame, unable to let go even now.

His eyes flickered towards Gu Nuan’s face.

Gu Nuan’s gaze, however, slowly moved to the two people opposite her.

This made Li Changzhi and Chen Jiaming, who had been looking down, both feel a sense of surprise.

What, wasn’t this a conversation between ex-partners? Why was Gu Nuan looking at them, the outsiders? Their emotional private affairs had nothing to do with bystanders; they weren’t foolish enough to meddle in others’ personal affairs. Such matters were bound to become muddier if trodden upon, only darkening and bringing trouble onto oneself.

Now Gu Nuan was looking at them, expecting them to speak up?

A sneer almost escaped from Li Changzhi’s lips. He thought, this Gu Nuan, has she come to them because she can’t handle her own ex-boyfriend?

Utterly boring.

Hmph.

On the other hand, Chen Jiaming, after lifting his head and meeting Gu Nuan’s gaze, closed the file in his hand and said, "If you two want to talk privately, we can step out."

Right. Li Changzhi nodded, waiting to see how Gu Nuan would deal with this joke.

Moreover, if he wasn’t mistaken, the pairs of eyes sneaking peeks at them from the doorway all belonged to people here, and furthermore, they were Gu Nuan’s husband’s people. Did Gu Nuan really go this far, chatting intimately with her ex in front of her own husband’s staff?

It seemed Gu Nuan had no way out and so, was she simply—smashing the pot to pieces in desperation?

Just as Chen Jiaming and Li Changzhi were about to stand up,

Gu Nuan spoke, "There is nothing inappropriate. I am considering Director Chen’s position, mainly because I am worried it might affect the cooperative relationship between Director Chen and Director Wa."

What?

Li Changzhi’s mouth twitched: Did Gu Nuan think Chen Jiaming would fight Wa Zicong over her?

She’s too full of herself, believing that all men in the world would fall head over heels for her?

A flash of anger involuntarily crossed Li Changzhi’s face, and before Chen Jiaming could speak, he addressed Gu Nuan, "Miss Gu, don’t forget that you are currently Mrs. Xiao. You should at least be a bit more appropriate in your speech, aware of your current status."

"Where was I inappropriate?" asked Gu Nuan, her voice ripple-free.

Li Changzhi blurted out angrily, "Then you tell me, what did you mean by what you just said?"

"What did I mean? Isn’t it just as I said? The secret I mentioned might involve some business intelligence that Director Chen is unaware of. Director Wa knows, but he hasn’t informed Director Chen, isn’t it—"

Gu Jinrong halted her words right there.

Li Changzhi, who had thought himself righteous, suddenly froze, his face stiffening.

Zhong Qiaohui, guarding the doorway and peeking in, covered her mouth instantly. This Li Changzhi, as arrogant as ever, presumptuous in everything. For instance, he was determined that the bag Gu Nuan had brought up before was a knockoff, and now, his expression was identical to the current one.
