After rebirth, the paranoid boss dotes on her

Chapter 26 'Best Friend'

Ring ring ring——

Suddenly, a cell phone rang, breaking the sweet atmosphere between the couple.

When Xiang Wanqiao saw her cell phone ringing, she got off Gu Jingzhan's lap, walked slowly to the bedside table, picked up the phone and answered it.

Seeing the caller ID, she curled her lips coldly, then swiped the answer button and put the receiver to her ear.

"Hey, Weiwei, why are you calling me so late?"

"Qiaoqiao, is it convenient for you to talk now?" Lu Siwei asked cautiously.

Xiang Wanqiao turned to look at Gu Jingzhan, and Gu Jingzhan was also looking at her.

She smiled sweetly at him, and then replied to Lu Siwei: "It's convenient, you say."

"Qiaoqiao, the Lu family has been in some trouble recently. Can you help me? I'm almost at the end of my rope."

As she spoke, Lu Siwei sniffed, and it sounded like she had been crying.

Xiang Wanqiao sat back next to Gu Jingzhan with her phone in her hand and put the call on speakerphone in front of him.

Gu Jingzhan opened his arms, embraced her slender waist, and watched her flawless performance in silence.

"What happened to Lu?" She pretended to be anxious and said, "How did you get forced into a desperate situation? Tell me what difficulties you encounter, and I will definitely help you."

"Qiaoqiao, someone is looking for trouble with the Lu family."

Xiang Wanqiao asked knowingly, "Who is it? Who is causing trouble for the Lu family?"

Lu Siwei paused for a few seconds, then said the man's name with great difficulty, "Gu Jingzhan."

"Gu Jingzhan?" Xiang Wanqiao dragged out her voice, pretending to be very surprised, "Why did he do this?"

"Maybe it's because I gave you the idea to fake suicide to force him to divorce last time. He holds a grudge against me, so he is retaliating against Lu."

Lu Siwei avoided the main issue and complained to her with a particularly aggrieved tone.

"Gu Jingzhan is not only slandering the quality of Lu's products, but also fabricating false evidence to anonymously report to the tax bureau that Lu's company is evading taxes. People from the tax bureau and the Industry and Commerce Bureau are here today. He wants to completely destroy Lu's company!"

"Oh? Really?" Xiang Wanqiao said angrily, defending her, "Gu Jingzhan is so despicable that he uses these means to deal with you and the Lu family."

Hearing the woman scolding him, Gu Jingzhan silently curled his lips and looked at her with eyes full of helplessness and doting.

"Yes, Qiaoqiao." Lu Siwei pretended to sob twice, "I also had good intentions and wanted to help you get rid of the devil Gu Jingzhan. Otherwise, I wouldn't let you take such a risk."

"I know, you're doing that for my own good."

"Of course, we are best friends, how could I hurt you!" Lu Siwei expressed her loyalty to her.

Xiang Wanqiao sneered in her heart, and squeezed out each word from between her teeth: "Well, we are best friends."

"So you will definitely help me, right?"

"Of course." Xiang Wanqiao said affirmatively, "Don't worry, I will definitely ask Gu Jingzhan about this matter and ask him to stop targeting you and the Lu Group."

When Lu Siwei heard her say this, she was immediately relieved, "Qiaoqiao, I knew you were the best to me."

"You are my best friend. If I don't treat you well, who should I treat well?"

"Thank you, Qiaoqiao."

"You're welcome."

After hanging up the phone, the fake smile on Xiang Wanqiao's face disappeared.

Seeing that she had ended the call, Gu Jingzhan pulled her back onto his lap and said frankly, "I was the one who released the news about the quality problems of Lu's products. As for tax evasion..."

"That was my doing."

"Huh?" Gu Jingzhan was somewhat surprised.

Xiang Wanqiao raised an eyebrow, "Surprised?"

"Weren't you very protective of her before? Why did you change your attitude towards her now?"

Xiang Wanqiao sneered and said in a cold voice: "I protected her before because I truly regarded her as my best friend, but she was so ruthless that she hooked up with Xiao Xuanan behind my back."

Speaking of Lu Siwei, the hatred in Xiang Wanqiao's eyes was no less than that towards Xiao Xuan'an.

When Gu Jingzhan saw her reaction, he couldn't help but think of the dream she had just told him.

"Are they Xiao Xuan and Lu Siwei in your dream?"

Xiang Wanqiao clenched her fists and said through gritted teeth: "It's these two who are in cahoots with each other!"

Hearing this, Gu Jingzhan's eyes darkened a little, and a fierce look flashed across his eyes. He silently remembered the grudge against these two people.

Xiang Wanqiao closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and calmed herself down.

She thought that since she had already talked it out with Gu Jingzhan, she would no longer hide anything from him.

"Before, Xiao Xuan thought I was going to divorce you and was afraid that it would affect his plans, so he rushed to the hospital to see me. He acted affectionate in front of me and used all kinds of tricks to coax me."

"He wanted me to get the bottom price from you for Gu's Group's bid for the West City Tourism Resort Development Project. I could only pretend to agree to it in order to let him down his guard, and then give him a fake bottom price to make his plans fall through."

Gu Jingzhan couldn't help feeling a little relieved when he saw her full of plans.

His Qiaoqiao has finally grown up!

"If you need my help, just let me know."

This was what she had been waiting for. Xiang Wanqiao said without hesitation, "I really need your help right now."

"explain."

Xiang Wanqiao pursed her lips and said bluntly, "I need to know the bottom price of your Gu Group's bid for the West City Tourism Resort Development Project."

Although she knew that Gu Jingzhan had begun to trust her, she was still very nervous when she said that.

She didn't know how Gu Jingzhan would react, nor did she know whether he would misinterpret her meaning.

Gu Jingzhan picked up the tablet silently and directly showed her the bidding document for the West City Tourism Resort Development Project.

For a moment, Xiang Wanqiao paused.

She looked at him in astonishment and said slowly, "You...you just showed me the bid document like that? Aren't you afraid..."

"Will you let me down?" Gu Jingzhan asked in a low voice.

Xiang Wanqiao smiled and said, "No."

"So, I believe you."

Before Xiang Wanqiao confessed to him, he would be suspicious, angry, and even go crazy like he did in the afternoon.

But when she told him about the dream, and it sounded so real and desperate, he could no longer doubt her. Subconscious reactions and psychological fears could not deceive people.

but……

Even if what happened today had not happened, he would withdraw from the bidding to fulfill her wish.

How could he bear to see the girl lose, whom he had loved deeply in his heart for twenty years?
