After rebirth, the paranoid boss dotes on her

Chapter 20 She Will Always Be There

Riverside Villa

The ambiguous atmosphere lingered for a long time and the room was in a mess.

Xiao Xuan was leaning against the head of the bed, holding a cigarette between two fingers, and slowly exhaling a puff of white smoke from his mouth.

The fingers of his other hand entangled in the hair on the woman's shoulders and he whispered, "Have you dealt with Lu's affairs?"

Lu Siwei leaned on his shoulder clingingly, her voice slightly tired, "It's not that easy to handle. Now we have only managed to stabilize some of the customers."

"Did you find out who did it?"

"No."

Xiao Xuan frowned, took a deep puff of cigarette, and then said slowly: "This matter is not that simple, there must be someone behind this."

Lu Siwei also felt that this matter was not simple, and looked up at him, "Who do you think did it? Gu Jingzhan?"

"It's not impossible."

"Why?" Lu Siwei didn't understand, "Why does he want to deal with the Lu family?"

"Tell me why." Xiao Xuan flicked the ash on the ashtray. "You instigated Xiang Wanqiao to commit suicide and almost killed the woman he loved the most. Do you think he would not take revenge on you?"

Lu Siwei was speechless.

"But fortunately, Gu Jingzhan didn't kill him, otherwise your Lu family would have gone bankrupt."

"Tell me, does Xiang Wanqiao know that Gu Jingzhan is dealing with me?"

After thinking for a while, Lu Siwei said, "But Xiang Wanqiao probably doesn't know, otherwise she wouldn't have stood by and watched him die."

Xiao Xuan remained silent, his eyes gradually becoming darker.

He was smoking a cigarette and thinking deeply.

After a moment, he said, "I always feel that there is something wrong with Xiang Wanqiao now, but I can't tell what's wrong with her."

"What's wrong?"

"do not know."

Lu Siwei felt that Xiao Xuan'an was not in a good mood today and was a little irritable.

She asked with concern: "Is it not going well for you too?"

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan took a deep puff of the smoke and then slowly exhaled.

"It's not going well. Those shareholders are not as easy to control as we thought. They are also very greedy and their demands are too high."

"So you haven't gotten their shares yet?"

"Not yet, but I have sent people to investigate the background of those shareholders to see where I can start."

Xiao Xuan'an was frowning, as if things were slowly going off track and out of his control.

This made Xiao Xuan'an anxious.

After hearing this, Lu Siwei became a little worried for him.

"You still need to send a WeChat message to Xiang Wanqiao to urge her. The bidding conference will start in a few days. You can't lose the big picture while neglecting the big picture."

Xiao Xuan turned to look at her, as if asking for her consent: "Then should I send a WeChat message to Xiang Wanqiao now?"

"Ah."

After getting Lu Siwei's consent, Xiao Xuan immediately put out the cigarette in his hand, picked up his mobile phone, quickly edited a WeChat message and sent it to Xiang Wanqiao.

Rose Garden

After finishing his business, Gu Jingzhan left the study and returned to his bedroom.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Xiang Wanqiao sleeping on the sofa with a laptop in her arms.

Gu Jingzhan looked at her quiet and peaceful sleeping face, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a doting smile spread between his eyebrows.

He was afraid of waking her up, so he walked over quietly, carefully took the laptop out of her arms and put it back on the table.

Suddenly, the screen of Xiang Wanqiao's mobile phone placed on the table lit up and a WeChat message popped up on the screen.

[Brother An: Qiaoqiao, how is the matter going? ]

Gu Jingzhan took a quick glance and his expression suddenly turned cold after seeing the content.

Then he sneered and slowly clenched his fists.

at night.

Xiang Wanqiao fell into a nightmare again, clutching the quilt tightly with both hands, cold sweat kept coming out on her forehead, and she muttered to herself.

"Don't... Gu Jingzhan... Don't..."

"do not want!"

She sat up suddenly, waking up from a nightmare, gasping for breath.

After she calmed down, she turned her head and looked at the seat next to her.

It was cold and there was no one around.

Xiang Wanqiao looked around the room but couldn't find Gu Jingzhan.

She picked up the phone from the bedside table, intending to check the time, but ended up seeing the WeChat message Xiao Xuan'an sent her.

Xiang Wanqiao's face immediately showed an expression of disgust, and then she replied to him in a very perfunctory manner.

【Xiang Wanqiao: Well, things are almost done. 】

After replying, she also changed Xiao Xuan's WeChat note.

Then, she put the phone back to its place, threw back the quilt, got out of bed, put on her slippers and went out to look for Gu Jingzhan.

Study, living room, guest room, garden...

Xiang Wanqiao searched everywhere but couldn't find Gu Jingzhan.

She wondered if Gu Jingzhan had gone out for some important matter.

Just as I was about to go back to my room to get my cell phone to call him, I heard a noise coming from the second floor.

She followed the sound to the second floor. Just as she reached the stairs, she saw a wine bottle rolling out from the end of the east corridor.

Xiang Wanqiao blinked, then walked towards that direction.

Gu Jingzhan was huddled in a small corner alone, a bottle of wine in his hand, staring blankly at the square glass window on the upper right.

Lonely and depressed.

"Ah Zhan." She called him softly.

The man didn't turn around immediately. After about five or six seconds, he turned around and looked at her blankly.

He looked drunk, his eyes were red from the alcohol.

Xiang Wanqiao squatted down and asked him softly, "Why don't you go back to your room to sleep instead of sitting here drinking?"

Gu Jingzhan didn't say anything, just looked at her straight.

Xiang Wanqiao sighed softly, took the bottle away from his hand, and said, "You have a bad stomach, you can't drink so much."

"Qiaoqiao, are you... concerned about me?"

"What else? Is there anyone else here?"

Gu Jingzhan suddenly grabbed her wrist, pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.

Xiang Wanqiao didn't know what was wrong with him. He was like an insecure child, so fragile and helpless that he was about to break.

She moved her body slightly, feeling that the current position was not very comfortable and wanted to change to a more comfortable one.

Gu Jingzhan thought she was going to leave, and subconsciously hugged her tighter.

"Don't go, let me hug you, okay?" he pleaded humbly.

"it is good."

Xiang Wanqiao felt distressed.

She didn't move, and hugged him back with her hands just as tightly, trying to give him some sense of security.

"Ah Zhan, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Jingzhan buried his head in the crook of her neck, his tone very depressed and decadent: "Qiaoqiao, why can't you love me?"

Hearing this, Xiang Wanqiao's heart ached violently.

"I……"

"Qiaoqiao, please don't leave me, okay? Never leave me."

"Don't leave, never leave."

Xiang Wanqiao didn't know whether he would still remember it after he sobered up tomorrow, but she still responded to him seriously.

"Buckwheat buckwheat..."

"I'm here, and I'll always be here."
