In the past, Anhao had thought that Zuo Hancheng was the only one who would be the center of attention wherever he went. Now, she realized that anyone who had anything to do with Zuo Hancheng was a shining star.
He didnât expect these foreigners to directly ask him in English how he managed to marry such a beautiful lady. The topic suddenly changed from a business conversation to various praises for Mrs. Zuo. Anhaoâs English was much better than before. After all, she had been in the United States for three years.
She did not listen carefully when they were talking earlier, and she could only hear some of Zuo Hanchengâs sharp words. Now that she was sitting beside him, she could clearly hear the praises of these foreigners.
Although she knew that this was a westernerâs etiquette and respect for Zuo Hancheng and Mrs. Zuo, she was not afraid.
These were all people who worked in Zuo Hanchengâs business, and they were also foreigners. Although she did not want to be too reserved, she could not be too bold. Hence, Anhao smiled and thanked them, and did not look at them anymore. Then, she heard the foreigners praise her in a low voice, but what Zuo Hancheng said next made Anhaoâs ears warm up.
âMy wife is feeling embarrassed,â he said in English.â
Who would be embarrassed!
Was it because she wasnât familiar with these people and was also someone in his business, so she didnât want to perform too well? If she wanted to show off, she didnât even ask what Gu Anhao did in school!
Now that he had grown up, he had restrained himself. But how did he say the word âembarrassingâ?!
After the meal, it started to rain heavily outside. Anhao stood by the window in the corridor and waited. Zuo Hancheng had to be the host and personally arrange the schedule of those international friends. It was not until Mo Bai brought the other assistants and secretaries to pick up those international friends that Anhao stood by the window and heard familiar footsteps behind her.
Zuo Hanchengâs footsteps had always been slow and steady, but they sounded especially familiar to her. Perhaps, to her, Zuo Hanchengâs footsteps always represented a sense of security.
After standing there for so long, she had thought about Wennerâs words in detail. If she had never let go of everything about Zuo Hancheng, why would she push away the person she loved? Besides, she already knew Zuo Hanchengâs good intentions.
Therefore, no matter how tender she was, it seemed that even she could not forgive herself.
After all, if she did not hold on to a man like Zuo Hancheng, there would always be other women who would pounce on him and try to make his presence known. Now, she was no longer as impulsive and willful as before. She had to cherish what she should cherish. After all, she had lived for twenty-three years. Whether it was her family background, experience, or familiarity with all of the past, the only person who made her feel warm and hopeful, happy, or really sad was Zuo Hancheng.
When the person behind her approached, Anhao suddenly turned around.
Zuo Hancheng stopped in his tracks the moment she turned around. This was a good angle, and he could see the two faint blushes on Anhaoâs cheeks from the light in the corridor.
He looked down at her.âItâs raining. Are we going back after the rain stops? I parked the car across the road. You might get wet if you walk over. Your waist canât catch a cold now.â
âLetâs go now. I want to go back to my previous place to pack my luggage.âAnhao said.
As soon as Anhao said that, Zuo Hancheng looked at her deeply. He did not ask any questions, but he seemed to be in a good mood. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the elevator. Wenner had just sent someone back.
When he saw that Zuo Hancheng and Anhao were still around, Wenner had already drunk quite a bit today. Although he was not drunk, he was indeed drunk. At this moment, he was walking unsteadily. When he walked over, he said,âThe rain outside is not light. Although there are no rooms available in my food stall, we can rest for a while in the private room. How about it, Mr. Zuo?â
âTwo umbrellas, please.â However, Zuo Hancheng looked at him indifferently, not giving him any face at all.
Wenner snorted.â Mr. Zuo, you can say that youâre second in the ability to burn bridges after crossing the river. No one can say that theyâre first.ââ
After saying that, he called over the waiter who was cleaning the private room.âGo, prepare two umbrellas for President Zuo. Itâs raining so heavily. Donât let his delicate wife get drenched.â
These words sounded Why did she sound so sour as if she had stolen Wennerâs husband?
Anhao could not help but laugh. Zuo Hancheng looked back at her and she immediately held back her laughter. She looked up at him and said,âYou drank a lot today. Can you still drive?â
âIâm not drunk, Iâm fine.â
Anhao nodded her head and did not say anything else. Although it was not good to drink and drive, Zuo Hancheng was not drunk at all. Although he had drunk just now, he had always followed his drinking limit and would not deliberately compete with others. Moreover, the people who had business dealings with Zuo Hancheng, especially the foreigners, were all gentlemen and would not deliberately force people to get drunk.
The waiter moved quickly and brought over two blue umbrellas with the name of the food stall printed on them. Wenner took them and turned around to bring them over.âThen, umbrella.â
After Zuo Hancheng took the umbrella, he glanced back at Anhao. Anhao understood and quickly followed him. When the two of them reached the elevator, Wenner stood in the distance and complained,ââYou two are indeed the same kind of people. Youâve been so busy for you, but in the end, you didnât even say goodbye. Arenât you too inhumane?â
Anhao stopped in her tracks, but Zuo Hancheng walked in without turning back when the elevator door opened. He even glanced at Wenner when he reached the door and picked up the umbrella in his hand.âIsnât it enough for me to take your umbrella and go out to help you advertise? What do you want me to do?â
Thatâs right, Zuo Hancheng was holding an umbrella from Wennerâs shop, and the name of the food stall was printed on it.
Wennerâs mouth twitched and he waved his hand.ââGo, go, go. I wonât stop the two of you.â
Anhao walked into the elevator. When the two of them walked out of the shop, Anhao looked at the rain outside the door and walked beside Zuo Hancheng to ask,ââJust now, Wenner was obviously planning to keep you for a few more drinks. Why did he suddenly cower when you mentioned helping him advertise?â
Zuo Hancheng held up his umbrella.â Most of the advertisements that Shengling Group sponsors are sky-high. Iâm using this umbrella to openly enter his shop. In other words, do you think heâs willing to pay for this âadvertising feeâ?â
It turned out that Zuo Hanchengâs words had not only turned off the favor he owed Wenner, but also made Wenner owe him a huge sum of money. It was just a sentence or two. If Wenner had kept them here for another ten minutes, the shop would have been transferred to Zuo Hanchengâs name in an instant.
In terms of cunning and cunning, Zuo Hancheng was definitely the one!
