Chapter 320: Unexpected Encounter

Isn't this all about human effort? Besides, if they really speed up the acquisition process of Xing Ya Company, maybe our matters will become more convenient. And, you still have Wu Pengqing, don't you?

Yeah, Wu Pengqing? How did I not think of that? I should get more specific information from him, see if there's anything valuable.

So, you can't give up on this woman no matter what; otherwise, you might not be able to approach Wu Pengqing's side anymore.

Okay, I understand. This time I really did it for the company; this matter has caused me a lot of trouble, and almost everyone I trusted around me has been deceived by me.

Young man, I've told you before: when dealing with things, you must have a long-term vision. Besides, what is this little thing to you? Compared to future wealth and honor, don't you think it's completely meaningless?

Yes, if it weren't for this matter, I wouldn't have gotten this far. Alright, I'm going straight to the company; after we meet there, we'll discuss the details.

After saying that, he impatiently hung up the phone.

No one knows exactly what his relationship with the company's General Manager Zhao is, but on the surface they are indeed from the same company, and they are in a superior-subordinate relationship.

But actually, their secret collusion had already begun to unfold slowly several years ago.

It's a pity that Geng Jing Shu is merely a pawn they're using, and even now she doesn't realize that her role as a pawn will likely be lost soon.

When Geng Jing Shu opened her eyes, she noticed that the outside sky had gradually darkened.

Without realizing it, she had slept for so long; Geng Jing Shu hurriedly took out her phone, glanced at it, and saw that it was already six o'clock in the evening.

After seeing the time, he hurriedly sat up from bed.

Really, sleeping that long—perhaps these days his mood never got a chance to relax, so he's remained in this tense state.

He hastily packed his things and then walked straight out of the Bin Guan room.

But Geng Jing Shu never imagined that she would actually run into Xiao Jingrou inside the Bin Guan.

Xiao Jingrou had just taken on that client, and the Bin Guan they booked was exactly this one.

Come, please this way.

While speaking, Xiao Jingrou opened the elevator door and let the guest go in first.

Meanwhile, the other elevator door had just opened, and she saw a woman's silhouette disappear before her.

Isn't this Geng Jing Shu?

She frowned slightly; although it was just a blurry silhouette, she had the feeling it must be Geng Jing Shu.

Miss Xiao, do you have anything else? The elevator has been ringing for a while.

The guest suddenly spoke up inside.

Xiao Jingrou then realized and just apologetically shrugged at them.

Sorry, I just thought I saw an acquaintance; let's go to the room first.

Saying that, she stepped back into the elevator, and the doors promptly closed.

However, that image kept appearing in her mind.

Was that woman really Geng Jing Shu or not?

After settling the guest, she hurriedly left the room.

Although Xiao Jingrou felt that going up would only take two minutes.

But after all, in her flustered state, she still needed to figure out who that person was.

So, when he came down, she felt there was still time to do all this.

But unfortunately, Xiao Jingrou can no longer see that person's silhouette.

Standing at the Bin Guan entrance, she kept looking around, but she never saw any sign of Geng Jing Shu.

It's truly a pity; clearly she saw a silhouette, including the clothing, that was very similar to Geng Jing Shu.

Especially strange to her was why Geng Jing Shu would come to the Bin Guan during the day.

What on earth is he secretly doing? And does his older brother Xiao Yunzhe know about this?

Xiao Jingrou and Xiao Yuchun had just returned from abroad, and this time it was precisely for these clients.

Xiao Yuchun's fashion designer has been working on this for a long time, and if this deal goes through, it should greatly help their future business development.

But family matters are equally important.

Xiao Jingrou took out her phone and directly dialed Geng Jing Shu's number.

After the call rang a few times, Geng Jing Shu's voice came through.

Hello, Jingrou? What's up?

Sister-in-law, where are you?

I, I, I'm outside.

Xiao Jingrou could hear the constant sound of vehicles passing outside.

So Xiao Jingrou began to feel a bit worried.

If he were now in a very quiet environment or at home, then I suppose I must have been mistaken.

But there's still a chance of that.

Oh, nothing, I just wanted to see if you weren't home.

No, I'm not home. What's up, Jingrou? Is there something?

Okay, nothing's up; I just wanted to see if you were home so I could ask you to fetch something from my room, but if not, forget it.

Oh, or I could just go back later and call you then.

No need, no need; I'll think of another way. Alright then, sister-in-law.

After speaking, he hung up the phone.

Xiao Jingrou began to feel a vague worry in her heart; just how much could Xiao Yunzhe know about this matter?

What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you? After arranging the clients, you're supposed to take them out to eat.

Suddenly, a voice spoke from behind Xiao Jingrou; she turned and saw it was her older sister Xiao Yuchun.

Sis, do you know what I just saw?

"What did you see? No, where are the customers? Where did the customers go?"

"Don't worry, I've already arranged for them to stay in the rooms upstairs. They said they'd like to rest a bit first, because they're tired from the journey, so they'll come down later."
