She raised her wine glass to toast the two people across from her, took a sip of the champagne in her cup, set it down, and walked gracefully into the side passage amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd.
She intended to leave just like that, but after taking a few steps, a rush of warmth surged through her lower body. The slight dampness she had felt earlier now made sense; it must be that time of the month.
Her dress was light-colored, and her period usually came on strong during the first day. It seemed she wouldn’t make it home to change. Fortunately, she had brought some pads in her handbag. After hesitating for a moment, she headed down the corridor to the restroom. Thankfully, no one noticed her; otherwise, they might think she had returned out of weakness.
Just as she finished tidying up and was about to open the door to leave, a familiar voice pierced her eardrums.
“Lan Qing, did you just drive Jiang Shao's wife away?”
“Yeah, why does she always insist on occupying Mrs. Jiang's spot? I just don’t understand why Jiang Shao doesn’t divorce her. I've brought it up with him many times.”
“You could talk to Mrs. Jiang! If she knew that Jiang Shao secretly took several contracts to undermine Wind Dust Group and even bought three percent of Wind Dust Group’s shares on the market, she might agree to the divorce! She’s been foolishly thinking that Jiang Shao is helping her dad when in fact, Jiang Shao doesn’t even like her; it’s surprising he helps her at all.”
“You’re right. I can’t believe she would cling to Jiang Shao if she knew all this!”
“Yeah, congratulations in advance on becoming Mrs. Jiang!”
“Thanks, Qingxue, let’s get out of here!”
“Okay!…”
Green Qi's hand trembled slightly on the doorknob, and her tightly clenched fist wrinkled the hem of her evening gown. Her originally clear and lively eyes were now filled with cold light as the words she had overheard swirled in her mind, igniting her fury!
If she hadn't overheard this conversation, she probably wouldn't have realized that her trust in Jiang Chengmu had resulted in such harm. It turned out that his so-called support for the Wind Dust Group was merely a facade of peace. How ridiculous it was that she had been manipulated by him all along!
Dazed, she stepped out of the hotel, her skirt in hand. She intended to confront Jiang Chengmu, but without evidence, doing so would only put her in a more passive position.
At this time, it was difficult to get a taxi here. She walked forward step by step in her high heels, planning to wait for a car at the intersection ahead.
Behind her, a black limousine slowly followed and eventually stopped beside her. Xia Yu got out from the passenger seat. Upon seeing him, Green Qi was momentarily stunned and glanced at the car behind him under the dim light.
"Miss Gu, the President said he would give you a ride home. Please get in!"
"No need, I can take a taxi!" Her mood was chaotic, and she had no time to entangle herself with Mu Tongzi.
Despite her refusal, Xia Yu maintained a smiling demeanor: "It's hard to get a taxi around here. The President is waiting for you in the car. Miss Gu, please get in!"
It was true that subordinates reflected their superiors; he spoke humbly yet made it impossible to refuse.
Seeing that he had even brought up Mu Tongzi, Green Qi felt it would be inappropriate to make things difficult for him any further. She nodded and turned to get into the car.
As soon as she sat down, she was enveloped by a familiar masculine scent mixed with a hint of alcohol. Normally, this would make her nervous, but today she felt disheartened and had little interest in anything.
Since she sat down, Mu Tongzi had not taken his eyes off her. Watching her hang her head with a vacant expression without even glancing at him made him furious!
