Chapter 217: Chapter 217 didn’t matter anymore
A hint of confusion flashed across secretary Lin’s eyes. “Isn’t this the recent whereabouts of Zhou Lin that you asked me to find out?”
Li Jingran’s face darkened, and he looked at her coldly.
Secretary Lin was so scared that she shivered. She didn’t dare to ask any more questions, and she took the document bag and hurried out.
Li Jingran pushed away the work in his hands and walked to the French window. He looked down at the endless traffic outside the window, and emotions surged in his deep eyes.
Xu Wanwan had misunderstood his relationship with Zhou Lin. As long as he proved to her that nothing had happened between them, she would come back.
Thinking of this, the man’s tensed emotions relaxed for a moment. He looked sideways at the sofa that Xu Wanwan had once laid on, and his eyes softened a little.
On the eve of the banquet, Xu Wanwan specially wore a very formal dress. The cream-colored tasseled dress looked elegant on her body. She looked at herself in the mirror, full of energy, and the corners of her lips curved slightly.
Just as she was about to leave, there was a knock on the door from outside the dormitory.
Xu Wanwan frowned slightly and did not get up for a long time.
These few days, there were always a lot of people who did not know who came to her door. Many people asked her to design works, and some wanted to secretly take photos of her paparazzi.
Xu Wanwan usually hid when she could. If she really could not hide, she could only take tough measures to drive those people away.
At this moment, knocking sounds kept coming from the door. She cautiously walked to the door and raised her voice, “May I ask who is it?”
Outside the door.
Secretary Lin was dressed in a professional suit with a few documents in her hands. She called out in a clear voice, “Miss Xu, it’s me.”
Hearing this slightly familiar voice, although Xu Wanwan couldn’t remember who it was, the wariness in her heart was dispelled.
She opened the door and saw Secretary Lin who had suddenly come to visit. A hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.
“Secretary Lin, what are you doing?”
“Miss Xu, I’m helping director Li deliver something to you.”Secretary Lin’s attitude was very good, but she also carefully handed over the document bag in her hand. “Is it convenient for us to talk inside?”
She had always done things professionally, and this was the first time she had shown her nervousness to an outsider.
After all, Xu Wanwan and Li Jingran were in a conflict. Since she was helping director Li deliver something, she had to consider Xu Wanwan’s feelings.
If she refused to accept it, even if her work was not done well, she might suffer as well.
Xu Wanwan was stunned and quickly moved aside. “Please come in.”
Secretary Lin entered the room and closed the door. She looked around the room.
Although the room was small, it was very clean and gave people a very comfortable feeling.
She saw that Xu Wanwan had dressed up meticulously and could roughly guess the reason. She did not waste any more time and took out a few clarification manuals from the document bag.
“Miss Xu, please take a look at this first.”
Xu Wanwan looked at the clarification manual in her hand with a dumbfounded expression. This was a list of hotel guests. The clarification stated that Zhou Lin had not booked a room in the hotel.
Secretary Lin explained, “Director Li stayed in this hotel when he was on a business trip in s city, but I personally handed his room card to him. No one else will know about it.”
“Zhou Lin did obtain the room card through improper means that night. This is the fault of the hotel’s security staff. The people involved have already been arrested.”
“This matter has nothing to do with director Li. This clarification was written by the hotel’s top management after a thorough investigation. There is a signature below, which has legal effect.”
Secretary Lin said as she turned on her phone and played a video of the hotel’s surveillance.
In the video, Zhou Lin sneaked into Li Jingran’s room, but she came out in less than five minutes.
Xu Wanwan didn’t understand why secretary Lin showed her this. “What do you want to express?”
Secretary Lin hesitated for a moment and said seriously, “Miss Xu, I want to explain to director Li that he can’t do anything in five minutes.”
“If director Li really has an improper relationship with Zhou Lin, it’s impossible for Zhou Lin to leave the room in five minutes.”
Xu Wanwan:”...”
This explanation was no longer so important to her at the moment.
She silently took back the document in her hand and pushed it back. She said faintly, “I understand.”
Secretary Lin’s expression was a little complicated. She added, “Actually, this is all a misunderstanding. Director Li has been missing you a lot these few days. If –”
“Secretary Lin, please go back and tell Li Jingran that I don’t care about these things anymore,”Xu Wanwan interrupted without waiting for Secretary Lin to continue, “I’m living very well now. I hope he won’t come and Disturb my life again.”
Secretary Lin saw that Xu Wanwan’s attitude was firm, and there was not a hint of emotion in her firm eyes.
She must have really given up.
Secretary Lin Sighed to herself.
It seemed that director Li was going to have a hard time these days.
After secretary Lin left, Xu Wanwan sat alone in the room, and her thoughts suddenly became empty.
The matter had already passed, and she had already planned to move on. What was the point of Li Jingran explaining all this to her now?
She opened her phone and clicked on the hot posts from the past few days.
It would have been better if she hadn’t read them, but once she did, her mood turned gloomy.
It had already been a week, but the posts between her and Li Jingran on the Internet were still as hot as ever. The comments below were all different, but no one had guessed that they had separated long ago.
Thinking of this, Xu Wanwan smiled mockingly.
Even she herself had never thought of leaving Li Jingran.
At the Xu Residence.
Xu Yue wore a grand and gorgeous gown as she walked down the stairs. Her long skirt trailed on the floor, followed by a few servants carrying it.
Zhao Zixuan, who was sitting on the sofa, stared at her with his eyes wide open.
Xu Yue herself was gentle and lovely, and her appearance was even more seductive.
Sun Yeulan quickly got up and walked forward to hold Xu Yue’s arm. “Yue’er, you’re so beautiful today. You’ll definitely amaze everyone at the banquet later.”
“That’s right. There will be many celebrities from the business circle at the banquet this time. It just so happens that the boss of Zi Long Company will be there as well. He’ll definitely introduce many people to you. This is really a good opportunity.”
Xu Yue lifted her chin slightly like a proud white swan. She was in a very happy mood as she was lifted up by their appreciation and praise.
“Of course. This banquet will invite all the celebrities from the society. If it wasn’t for my good relationship with the CEO of Zi Long Company, I wouldn’t have been able to get in.”
As Xu Yue said that, the corner of her mouth revealed a proud smile. “When I discuss a few more collaborations at the banquet, our Xu family’s business will have more opportunities for development.”
Ever since the Xu family cooperated with the Zhou family, the family’s various large businesses had been developing rapidly. She believed that it wouldn’t be long before she could get more shares of the XU Group.
Xu Yue was now capable. The people of the Xu family treated her as their ancestor.
When Sun Yeulan heard this, she was so happy that she couldn’t close her mouth. “Of course, our Yue’er is amazing!”
