Chapter 136: A woman is pleased with herself
Frightened by the man's dangerous smile and recalling the bad memories, Bai Xiaowei took two steps back and hurriedly explained.
"No, I'm not pretending to be stupid. We are not boyfriend and girlfriend yet. There is no reason for you to treat me to such an expensive meal. I also feel uneasy about it."
"That's it."
Gu Wenrui pretended to think for a moment: "Aren't you my creditor? Just treat it as my debt repayment."
"But......"
"You can't refuse my kindness. This is what you promised yourself. If you break your promise..."
Gu Wenrui smiled kindly: "...but you will be punished."
Bai Xiaowei: "..."
The crisis came to her mind, and she didn't want to know what the punishment he said was at all.
"Go and wash up and eat."
Gu Wenrui took the bowls and chopsticks, sat down at the table, and placed the breakfasts he bought one by one.
A noble and elegant man is particularly pleasing to the eye even if he does things that are incompatible with his appearance.
Bai Xiaowei washed up quickly and waited for a while before coming out of the bathroom.
While eating, the meaningful gaze of the man opposite her glanced across her face from time to time, making her feel uneasy even after eating. Her eyes only dared to wander over the breakfast, and she did not dare to raise her eyes to meet him.
It wasn't until she entered the unit gate that she was stopped by the security guard and informed that a lawyer wanted to make an appointment with her, that she gradually came back to her senses.
At this moment, the little woman who was timid and hesitant about feelings disappeared, her confident and calm aura returned to her body, and the sassy and capable prosecutor returned.
Gu Wenrui watched the changes in the little woman in front of him, with an unpredictable look in his eyes.
After thanking the security guard, Bai Xiaowei and Gu Wenrui headed towards the office building.
Along the way, colleagues passing by said hello to her from time to time, and Bai Xiaowei responded one by one.
She glanced at the man next to her with a puzzled look on her face. Her colleagues seemed to be looking at her with particularly enthusiasm today.
Gu Wenrui nodded towards her, and he also noticed.
As soon as I sat down in the office, I received a group message:
[Notice: All criminal inspection personnel will hold a meeting at 8:30 am. The meeting will not be long, so please attend on time. 】
Seeing that it was a department meeting, Bai Xiaowei didn't pay too much attention. She simply packed up and walked into the conference room with a notebook and pen.
People arrived one after another, and when there were still 5 minutes left before the meeting time, Zhang Aimeng and her assistant Meng Xuanxuan walked in, chatting and laughing.
As soon as she saw Bai Xiaowei, Zhang Aimeng's eyes widened. She put down her notebook and pen and looked at her face. While looking at her, she yelled: "Oh, am I dazzled?"
"Xuanxuan, Xuanxuan, help me take a look."
Meng Xuanxuan had long been led astray by her position. She took a quick look at Bai Xiaowei's face and nodded: "Sister, you are not dazzled. Sister Xiaowei really put on makeup."
This voice successfully diverted all other people's attention to Bai Xiaowei's face.
Seeing this scene, Gu Wenrui, who had always remained calm, his eyes darkened.
Chen Shuyao, who had just entered the door, couldn't help but cast her gaze over when she heard Meng Xuanxuan's words.
Then she saw Bai Xiaowei, who had a little makeup and pink cheeks.
With a smile on her face, Chen Shuyao joked: "Hey, where did this beautiful girl come from? Did she go to the wrong door?"
Zhang Aimeng laughed and followed up: "That's right, beauty, do you have a boyfriend? Do you want to consider me? Hahahaha."
Meng Xuanxuan joined in and said, "Haha, the beautiful lady wants to have a date with her."
Wang Ziyu maintained her formation: "Beautiful sister, I'll treat you to milk tea."
Xu Zhichen: "..."
He laughed dryly, glanced at Pei Yongfeng, who was full of disdain, and gave a perfunctory compliment: "Sister Xiaowei is quite beautiful today."
Xia Xiaozhi, who has always been a man of few words: "Indeed."
Everyone looked at her, Director Xia's face was cold and serious, just like usual.
Facing everyone's gaze, she looked back calmly.
Bai Xiaowei's mouth twitched, and she was about to say something to end the topic.
Liu Kaichang suddenly became angry: "Oh, I just hate that my parents didn't give me a good skin. It's really not as good as good looks."
Pei Yongfeng glanced at him inexplicably. Wasn't he usually the first to jump out and sing the opposite tune? Why did Lao Liu run ahead of him today?
Hearing this, Zhang Aimeng was not happy and jumped out and choked: "Old Liu, you took the wrong medicine. You don't even look at your old face. The pleats can catch the legs of flies. You still want to talk to my slim Xiao Xiao?" Wei competes for favor, beggar picks up gold bars - just thinking about good things."
"Pfft."
Meng Xuanxuan and Wang Ziyu couldn't help laughing.
Faced with Xia Xiaozhi's cold eyes, Wang Ziyu immediately fell silent.
Bai Xiaowei glanced at Liu Kaichang and felt that he was a little unusual today.
Liu Kaichang was sneered at, and his anger rose in his heart. He didn't care that Chen Shuyao was there. He pointed at Zhang Aimeng's nose and said angrily: "Zhang Aimeng, what are you talking about? You really think you can get it if you get close to Bai Xiaowei." Is it any good?"
Zhang Aimeng and Bai Xiaowei looked at each other and saw two big words in each other's eyes: sick.
"Do you really think Bai Xiaowei can drink soup after eating meat? I think you are just a beggar picking up gold bars - you only want good things. They have promoted deputy director, what about you? Aren't you working hard for a year like us? , nothing is of any use..."
Bai Xiaowei no longer paid attention to what Liu Kaichang said later. She only heard three words - deputy director.
Did she mention the deputy director? When did it happen? Why didn't she know?
It suddenly dawned on me when I thought of the colleagues I met on the road who were more enthusiastic than before.
This is the workplace where there is a lot of news, good and bad, and the person involved is often the last one to know.
"...We have the same position. Bai Xiaowei has been working hard all day long to climb up. You are just like a stupid elder sister who only knows how to follow her as cannon fodder and a lackey..."
Zhang Aimeng opened her mouth wide, looked at Bai Xiaowei, and tapped her fingers on her temples.
This action made Zhu Chenxue, who had always had nothing to do with himself, suddenly burst into laughter.
Seeing that Liu Kaichang was talking more and more outrageously, Chen Shuyao said in a stern tone: "Old Liu, what are you talking about? Look at you like this..."
"Shu Yao, don't stop me, let Liu Kaichang continue."
The majestic and familiar voice reached their ears, and everyone was startled. Before their minds could react, their bodies all stood up and looked out the door.
Among them, there is a special case.
Gu Wenrui sat elegantly and had no intention of getting up.
Bai Xiaowei caught a glimpse of him from the corner of her eye, winked hurriedly, and while looking out the door, motioned for him to stand up quickly.
Seeing that she was really anxious, Gu Wenrui stood up slowly.
"Why don't you say it? Didn't you say it was very lively just now?"
"Zhao Jian, you...why are you here?"
Liu Kaichang's originally unconvinced expression after being interrupted by Chen Shuyao instantly turned to panic when he saw the man walking in.
Seeing Zhao Jian coming in, Chen Shuyao hurriedly moved her head down to free up the main seat.
"Zhao Jian, you..."
As soon as she started, Zhao Jian waved his hand to stop her.
Inspector Zhao scanned the faces of everyone in the conference room one by one, and finally landed on Liu Kaichang, with a kind smile: "If I don't come, how can I hear Prosecutor Liu's wonderful speech?"
Liu Kaichang looked stern and did not dare to defend himself.
"Ai Meng is Xiaowei's cannon fodder? A bastard?"
Zhao Jian seemed to find it very interesting: "This statement is quite new, haha."
He looked around with a smile. Everyone in the conference room looked solemn and sat upright, and no one dared to laugh in agreement.
Liu Kaichang was even more silent, regretting that he couldn't calm down.
After laughing enough, Zhao Jian spoke again, with a voice so oppressive that even Zhang Aimeng broke out in sweat after his name was just called, not to mention the target person Liu Kaichang.
"Why don't you come with me to meet Duan Jian and explain in detail how you came to this conclusion, eh?"
